Item 2.02.
Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (“Amendment No. 1”) is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge” or the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 2, 2023 (“Original Form 8-K”). The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to file an amended Earnings Webcast & Conference Call Presentation (“Amended Earnings Presentation”) which replaces the Earnings Webcast & Conference Call Presentation (“Original Presentation”) filed as Exhibit 99.2 to the Original Form 8-K.

The Amended Earnings Presentation corrects the calculation of Free cash flow (Non-GAAP) for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 in the Non-GAAP to GAAP reconciliation tables presented on page 27 of the Amended Earnings Presentation.  The table on page 27 of the Original Presentation reflected the year-to-date Net cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities (GAAP), Capital expenditures and Software purchases and capitalized internal use software and Free cash flow (Non-GAAP) amounts instead of the third quarter results in this column.  As a result, the last twelve months (LTM) Free cash flow amount for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 has also been corrected in the Amended Earnings Presentation.  The Free cash flow conversion amount of 63% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 was correctly stated in the Original Presentation.

Copy of the Amended Earnings Presentation is being furnished as Exhibits 99.1, attached hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.  The information furnished pursuant to Items 2.02 and 9.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.

Forward-Looking Statements

This current Report on Form 8-K may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical in nature, and which may be identified by the use of words such as “expects,” “assumes,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “we believe,” “could be,” “on track” and other words of similar meaning, are forward-looking statements. In particular, statements about our fiscal year 2023 performance and three-year objectives are forward-looking statements.

These statements are based on management’s expectations and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed.  You should carefully read the factors described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 2022 for a description of certain risks that could, among other things, cause our actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include:


changes in laws and regulations affecting Broadridge’s clients or the services provided by Broadridge;

Broadridge’s reliance on a relatively small number of clients, the continued financial health of those clients, and the continued use by such clients of Broadridge’s services with favorable pricing terms;

a material security breach or cybersecurity attack affecting the information of Broadridge’s clients;

the potential impact and effects of the Covid-19 pandemic (“Covid-19”) on the business of Broadridge, Broadridge’s results of operations and financial performance, any measures Broadridge has and may take in response to Covid-19 and any expectations Broadridge may have with respect thereto;

declines in participation and activity in the securities markets;

the failure of Broadridge’s key service providers to provide the anticipated levels of service;

a disaster or other significant slowdown or failure of Broadridge’s systems or error in the performance of Broadridge’s services;

overall market, economic and geopolitical conditions and their impact on the securities markets;

the success of Broadridge in retaining and selling additional services to its existing clients and in obtaining new clients;

Broadridge’s failure to keep pace with changes in technology and the demands of its clients;

competitive conditions;

2


Broadridge’s ability to attract and retain key personnel; and

the impact of new acquisitions and divestitures.

We can give no assurances that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will occur or, if any of them do, what impact they will have on our results of operations and financial condition.

Broadridge disclaims any obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, other than as required by law.
