Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
     On April 20, 2006, ChoicePoint Inc. (“ChoicePoint” or the “Company”) issued a press release announcing first quarter 2006 financial results. 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 non-GAAP financial information such as operating income before other charges (which is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles), which the Company believes is useful for investors to compare the Company’s 2006 results from ongoing operations excluding the effect of other charges. This data is also used by the Company for assessment of its operating results.
     On April 20, 2006, ChoicePoint will hold an investor conference call and webcast to disclose financial results for the first quarter of 2006. The webcast will be broadcast at 8:30 a.m. EDT. The webcast can be accessed at www.choicepoint.com and will be available for replay at the same address. The Supplemental Information package that will be placed on the ChoicePoint Inc. website prior to this call is attached and incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 99.2. All information in this Supplemental Information package is presented as of March 31, 2006, and ChoicePoint Inc. does not assume any obligation to correct or update said information in the future.
