FactSet: Q3 2025 Shows Resilience, But Price Multiples Are Still Too High
FDS
Published: June 23, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

FactSet remains a highly resilient, profitable company with predictable subscription-based revenue and strong client retention, supporting its premium valuation. Q3 FY2025 results show steady growth in users and organic ASV, with high operating margins despite a temporary dip from the LiquidityBook acquisition. Dividend growth is sustainable but slow, and buybacks are ineffective due to dilution, making shareholder returns reliant on capital gain.
