Just an FYI on Fiserv 10Q posted a few days ago. No it does not mention SFOR or ACS but it does address the delays of capital expenditures and other things due to Covid-19. It addresses Covid-19 as impacting them in the transaction fees etc. Read it for yourself Covid -19 is mentioned repeatedly through the filing.
Recent Market Conditions
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was identified and has since continued to spread and negatively impact the economy of the United States and other countries around the world. In March 2020, the World Health Organization recognized the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions have taken preventive or protective actions, such as travel restrictions and bans, quarantines, social distancing guidelines, shelter-in-place or lock-down orders and other similar limitations. Accordingly, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets.
Our operating performance is subject to global economic and market conditions, as well as their impacts on levels of consumer spending. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related decline in global economic activity, we experienced a significant decrease in payments volume and transactions during the last two weeks of March 2020 that negatively impacted our merchant acquiring and payment-related businesses, which earn transaction-based fees, as well as modest declines in other businesses. The lower merchant acquiring and payment volumes continued into April although volumes partially recovered at the end of the month as shelter in place restrictions were eased in certain geographies inside and outside of the United States. Ultimately the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operational and financial performance will depend on, among other matters, the duration and intensity of the COVID-19 pandemic; governmental and private sector responses and the impact of such responses on us; and the impact of the pandemic on our employees, clients, vendors, operations and sales, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken several actions to manage discretionary costs including, among others, limiting third-party spending and the temporary suspension of certain employee-related benefits, including company matching contributions to the Fiserv 401(k) Savings Plan as well as the discount on shares purchased under the Fiserv, Inc. Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In addition, we are reassessing and deferring many capital expenditures that were
