Ratings divisions saw an 18% total revenue growth, with a remarkable 29% rise in transactional revenue during Q4.
Guided Revenue Growth for 2025: Moody's expects MCO revenue growth in the high single-digit range for 2025, with adjusted diluted EPS projected between $14 to $14.50. The outlook is based on expected growth in rated issuance in the low single-digit range and continued demand for investment-grade sectors, supported by declining high-yield default rates.

This restructuring aims to simplify organizational structures and improve profitability.
