FISVMEDIUM SIGNALOPERATIONAL10-K

FISV migrated from NYSE to NASDAQ and significantly expanded its small business strategy with enhanced working capital solutions and comprehensive commerce capabilities.

The exchange migration suggests strategic repositioning toward the tech-heavy NASDAQ, while the expanded focus on small business solutions indicates FISV is investing heavily in higher-growth market segments. The removal of segment realignment language suggests the 2024 restructuring has been completed and is now operational.
