Filing receipts

The Company had the following investments subject to variable interest rates: (In millions) March 31, 2026 December 31, 2025 Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,611 $ 2,687 Cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity $ 11,744 $ 11,473 Based on the above balances at March 31, 2026, if short-term interest rates increased or decreased by 10%, or 30 basis points, for the year, annual interest income, including interest earned on cash and cash equivalents held in a fiduciary capacity, would increase or decrease by approximately $30 million.

Cash from the sale of long-term investments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 is primarily due to the disposal of an investment in a unit trust fund.

Although the Company has significant revenue generated in foreign locations which is subject to foreign exchange rate fluctuations, in most cases both the foreign currency revenue and expense are in the functional currency of the foreign location.
