Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On July 24, 2008, ChoicePoint Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing financial results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008. The press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The press release presented certain non-GAAP financial information such as net free cash flow and earnings per share from continuing operations before other charges (which are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles), which the Company believes is useful for investors to compare the Company’s results from ongoing operations excluding the effect of other charges. This data is also used by the Company for assessment of its operating results.

A Supplemental Information package has been placed on ChoicePoint’s website and is attached and incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 99.2. All information in this Supplemental Information package is presented as of June 30, 2008, and ChoicePoint does not assume any obligation to correct or update said information in the future.
