Revenue


						Revenue increased 8% and adjusted revenue excluding Engineering Solutions increased 11%, driven by acceleration in all divisions. Revenue from subscription products increased 9%, excluding Engineering Solutions. 3Q23 Ratings revenue includes $19 million from a cumulative catch-up for customers' self-reported commercial paper issuance. (1) Total GAAP and adjusted revenue include the impact of inter-segment eliminations of $43M and $46M, and a contribution from Engineering Solutions of $95M and $0, in 3Q22 and 3Q23, respectively. (2) Adjusted revenue in 2022 excludes the impact from businesses divested in 2022, in association with the merger with IHS Markit.


Operating Profit, Expense, and Operating Margin

The Company’s reported operating profit margin increased approximately 5 percentage points to 34.8%, primarily due to the increase in GAAP revenue. Adjusted operating profit margin increased 100 basis points to 47% primarily due to the divestiture of Engineering Solutions, growth in our Ratings division, and disciplined expense management.


Diluted Earnings Per Share


	3Q '23	3Q '22	y/y change
GAAP Diluted EPS	$2.33	$1.84	27%
Adjusted Diluted EPS	$3.21	$2.93	10%

GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 27% to $2.33 primarily due to a 22% increase in net income attributable to S&P Global, and a 4% reduction in diluted shares outstanding.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 10% to $3.21 due to a 6% increase in adjusted net income and a 4% decrease in diluted shares outstanding. Currency positively impacted adjusted diluted EPS by $0.03. The largest non-core adjustments to earnings in the third quarter of 2023 were for deal-related amortization and costs to achieve synergies.

Full-Year 2023 Outlook


	GAAP	Adjusted
Revenue growth	10% - 12%	4.5% - 5.5%
Corporate unallocated expense	$305 - $315 million	$150 - $160 million
Deal-related amortization	n/a	$1.08 - $1.09 billion
Operating profit margin	34.5% - 35.5%	45.5% - 46.5%
Interest expense, net	$360 - $370 million	$360 - $370 million
Tax rate	22.0% - 23.0%	20.5% - 21.5%
Diluted EPS	$8.75 - $8.90	$12.50 - $12.60
Capital expenditures	~$145 million	~$145 million

In addition to the above, the Company expects 2023 cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders, in the range of $3.7 billion to $3.8 billion. The Company expects adjusted free cash flow, excluding certain items, in the range of $4.2 billion to $4.3 billion. These expectations are unchanged from prior guidance. The Company now expects slightly higher GAAP and Adjusted capital expenditures compared to prior guidance of ~$140 million.

The Company is reiterating GAAP revenue guidance, and slightly lowering GAAP Corporate unallocated expense guidance versus the prior guidance range of $350 to $370 million, due to the removal of contract exit fees. This results in slightly higher guidance for GAAP operating margin versus the prior guidance range of 34.0% to 35.0%. The Company also expects a slightly lower GAAP tax rate versus the prior guidance range of 22.5% to 23.5%. As a result of higher margins and a lower expected tax rate, the Company now expects GAAP diluted EPS in the range of $8.75 to $8.90 versus the prior range of $8.65 to $8.85. Other GAAP guidance items are unchanged.

The Company is narrowing the range of expected growth in non-GAAP adjusted revenue versus prior guidance in the range of 4% to 6%. The Company now expects a slightly lower non-GAAP adjusted tax rate compared to prior expectations in the range of 21.0% to 22.0%. Due to the slightly lower expected tax rate and strong year-to-date performance, the Company is increasing the guidance range for non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS to $12.50 to $12.60 compared to prior guidance in the range of $12.35 to $12.55. Other non-GAAP adjusted guidance items are unchanged.

GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted guidance include the contribution from Engineering Solutions in all periods up to the date of its sale on May 2, 2023.

Non-GAAP adjusted guidance excludes merger expenses and amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions. Non-GAAP adjusted guidance is provided to reflect expected financial results for the full year, with growth rate guidance presented relative to non-GAAP pro forma adjusted measures for fiscal 2022, assuming the merger with IHS Markit (and associated divestitures) had closed on January 1, 2021. For non-GAAP adjusted guidance, growth rates compare revenue in the period ending December 31, 2023 to pro forma revenue and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted revenue for the period ended December 31, 2022.

Comparison of Adjusted Information to U.S. GAAP Information: The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). Company financial results are also presented on an as-reported basis, and on a pro forma basis as if the merger had closed on January 1, 2021, for periods including fiscal year 2022, and all other year-to-date periods that include the three months ended March 31, 2022; the pro forma basis agrees to the Company's previously filed unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information presented in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The Company also refers to and presents certain additional non-GAAP financial measures, within the meaning of Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These measures are: adjusted revenue and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted revenue; adjusted diluted EPS and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted diluted EPS; adjusted operating profit and margin and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted operating profit and margin; adjusted expenses; adjusted corporate unallocated expense and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted corporate unallocated expense; adjusted deal-related amortization; adjusted interest expense, net and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted interest expense, net; adjusted provision for income taxes and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted provision for income taxes; adjusted effective tax rate and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted effective tax rate; adjusted net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted net income attributable to non-controlling interests; adjusted net income attributable to SPGI and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted net income attributable to SPGI; cash flow provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders; and free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items, and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items. The Company has included reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP on Exhibits 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Reconciliations of certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP measures are not available due to the challenges and impracticability with estimating some of the items. The Company is not able to provide reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Because of those challenges, reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.

The Company's non-GAAP measures include adjustments that reflect how management views our businesses. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that, in the case of non-GAAP financial measures other than cash flow provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders; free cash flow; adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items; and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items, enables investors to better compare the Company's performance across periods, and management also uses these measures internally to assess the operating performance of its business, to assess performance for employee compensation purposes and to decide how to allocate resources. The Company believes that the presentation of cash flow provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders; free cash flow; adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items; and non-GAAP pro forma adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items allows investors to evaluate the cash generated from our underlying operations in a manner similar to the method used by management and that such measures are useful in evaluating the cash available to us to prepay debt, make strategic acquisitions and investments, and repurchase stock. However, investors should not consider any of these non-GAAP measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information that the Company reports.
