Updated Guidance:

Due to the extension of regulatory guidance provided by both the European Central Bank (ECB) and National Bank of Belgium, which limits, among other things, dividend payments, Euroclear will not pay a dividend in the fourth quarter of 2020. As a result of this and other items, ICE now expects fourth quarter non-operating expense to be in the range of $90 million to $95 million.

On December 11^th, 2020, ICE expects to release historical financial information related to its new business segments. This information will be available on the company’s investor relations website at: https://ir.theice.com/home/default.aspx
