BISAM is a global provider of portfolio performance and attribution, multi-asset risk, GIPS composites management and reporting. BISAM&amp;#x2019;s product offerings include B-One, BISAM&amp;#x2019;s cross-asset solution, which will serve as a complement to both FactSet&amp;#x2019;s portfolio analytics suite and client reporting solutions, and Cognity, which enhances FactSet&amp;#x2019;s risk analysis for derivatives and quantitative portfolio construction. These factors contributed to a purchase price in excess of fair value of BISAM&amp;#x2019;s net tangible and intangible assets, leading to the recognition of goodwill. At the time of acquisition, BISAM employed over &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;160&lt;/div&gt; employees based primarily in its New York, Boston, Paris, London and Sofia offices. Total transaction costs related to the acquisition were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$3.2&lt;/div&gt; million in fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; and were recorded within Selling, General and Administrative (&amp;#x201c;SG&amp;amp;A&amp;#x201d;) expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;Allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was finalized during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;fourth&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017.&lt;/div&gt; There were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; significant adjustments between the preliminary and final allocation.

&lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;Goodwill totaling $&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;173.9&lt;/div&gt; million represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill generated from the BISAM acquisition is included in the US and European segments and is &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; deductible for income tax purposes. The results of operations of BISAM have been included in the Company&amp;#x2019;s Consolidated Statements of Income since the completion of the acquisition on &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; March 17, 2017. &lt;/div&gt;Pro forma information has &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; been presented because the effect of the BISAM acquisition is &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; material to the Company&amp;#x2019;s consolidated financial results.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Vermi&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;lion&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;On&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 8, 2016, &lt;/div&gt;FactSet acquired Vermilion Holdings Limited (&amp;#x201c;Vermilion&amp;#x201d;) for a total purchase price of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$67.9&lt;/div&gt; million. Vermilion is a global provider of client reporting and communications software and services to the financial services industry. Client reporting is a growing area of the market as regulatory requirements rise; and with the acquisition of Vermilion and its Vermilion Reporting Suite (&amp;#x201c;VRS&amp;#x201d;), FactSet now offers a workflow around all elements of the client reporting process, which it expects will expand as investors grow increasingly sophisticated. This factor contributed to a purchase price in excess of fair value of Vermilion&amp;#x2019;s net tangible and intangible assets, leading to the recognition of goodwill. At the time of acquisition, Vermilion employed &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;59&lt;/div&gt; individuals in its London, Boston and Singapore offices. Total transaction costs related to the acquisition were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$0.7&lt;/div&gt; million and recorded within SG&amp;amp;A expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;Allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was finalized during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;third&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017.&lt;/div&gt; There were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; significant adjustments between the preliminary and final allocation.

Including new lease agreements executed during fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018,&lt;/div&gt; the Company&amp;#x2019;s worldwide leased office space increased to approximately &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1,612,100&lt;/div&gt; square feet at &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;up &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;469,100&lt;/div&gt; square feet, or &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;41.0%,&lt;/div&gt; from &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; August 31, 2017. &lt;/div&gt;This increase was primarily due to new leases for additional office space in the Philippines.

There were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; material changes in the Company&amp;#x2019;s purchase commitments during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; months of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Contingencies&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Income Taxes&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;Uncertain income tax positions are accounted for in accordance with applicable accounting guidance (see Note &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;5&lt;/div&gt;). FactSet is currently under audit by tax authorities and has reserved for potential adjustments to its provision for income taxes that &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;result from examinations by, or any negotiated settlements with, these tax authorities. The Company believes that the final outcome of these examinations or settlements will &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; have a material effect on its results of operations. If events occur which indicate payment of these amounts is unnecessary, the reversal of the liabilities would result in the recognition of tax benefits in the period FactSet determines the liabilities are &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; longer necessary. If the Company&amp;#x2019;s estimates of the federal, state, and foreign income tax liabilities are less than the ultimate assessment, a further charge to expense would result.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" margin: 0pt; text-align: left; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Legal Matters&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;FactSet accrues non income-tax liabilities for contingencies when management believes that a loss is probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, including intellectual property litigation. Based on information available at &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;FactSet&amp;#x2019;s management does &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; believe that the ultimate outcome of these unresolved matters against the Company, individually or in the aggregate, is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, its results of operations or its cash flows.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Indemnifications&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;As permitted or required under Delaware law and to the maximum extent allowable under that law, FactSet has certain obligations to indemnify its current and former officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was serving, at FactSet&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s request in such capacity. These indemnification obligations are valid as long as the director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The maximum potential amount of future payments FactSet could be required to make under these indemnification obligations is unlimited; however, FactSet has a director and officer insurance policy that it believes mitigates FactSet's exposure and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;enable FactSet to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification obligations is immaterial.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Concentrations of Credit Risk&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Cash equivalents &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;Cash and cash equivalents are maintained&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt; primarily with &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;five&lt;/div&gt; financial institutions. Deposits held with banks &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. These deposits &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions with reputable credit and therefore bear minimal credit risk. The Company seeks to mitigate its credit risks by spreading such risks across multiple counterparties and monitoring the risk profiles of these counterparties. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Accounts Receivable&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;Accounts receivable are unsecured and derived from revenues earned from clients located around the globe. FactSet &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;does &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; require collateral from its clients but performs credit evaluations on an ongoing basis. The Company maintains reserves for potential write-offs and evaluates the adequacy of the reserves periodically. These losses have historically been within expectations. &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;No&lt;/div&gt; single client represented &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;10%&lt;/div&gt; or more of FactSet&amp;#x2019;s total revenues in any period presented. At &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;the Company&amp;#x2019;s largest individual client accounted for &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;7%&lt;/div&gt; of total annual subscriptions and subscriptions from the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;ten&lt;/div&gt; largest clients did &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; surpass &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;20%&lt;/div&gt; of total annual subscriptions, slightly higher than the percentages as of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; August 31, 2017. &lt;/div&gt;As of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;the receivable reserve was &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$2.9&lt;/div&gt; million compared to a reserve of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$2.7&lt;/div&gt; million as of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; August 31, 2017&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Derivative Instruments&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to counterparty credit risk. FactSet has incorporated counterparty risk into the fair value of its derivative assets and its own credit risk into the value of the Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s derivative liabilities, when applicable. FactSet calculates credit risk from observable data related to CDS as quoted by publicly available information. Counterparty risk is represented by CDS spreads related to the senior secured debt of the respective bank with whom FactSet has executed these derivative transactions. Because CDS spread information is &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; available for FactSet, the Company&amp;#x2019;s credit risk is determined based on using a simple average of CDS spreads for peer companies as determined by FactSet. To mitigate counterparty credit risk, FactSet enters into contracts with large financial institutions and regularly reviews credit exposure balances as well as the creditworthiness of the counterparties.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:CommitmentsAndContingenciesDisclosureTextBlock>

The expiration date of the Option Plan is &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December 14, 2020. &lt;/div&gt;Stock options granted under the Option Plan expire &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; more than &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;ten&lt;/div&gt; years from the date of grant and the majority vest ratably over a period of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;five&lt;/div&gt; years.

As such, it is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates compared to the U.S. dollar. The Company utilizes derivative instruments (foreign currency forward contracts) to manage the exposures related to the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations and reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency. The Company does &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; enter into foreign currency forward contracts for trading or speculative purposes. In designing a specific hedging approach, FactSet considered several factors, including offsetting exposures, the significance of exposures, the forecasting of risk and the potential effectiveness of the hedge. The gains and losses on foreign currency forward contracts offset the variability in operating expenses associated with currency movements. The changes in fair value for these foreign currency forward contracts are initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss (&amp;#x201c;AOCL&amp;#x201d;) and subsequently reclassified into operating expenses when the hedged exposure affects earnings.

FactSet has incorporated counterparty risk into the fair value of its derivative assets and its own credit risk into the value of the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Company&amp;#x2019;s derivative liabilities, when applicable. FactSet calculates credit risk from observable data related to credit default swaps (&amp;#x201c;CDS&amp;#x201d;) as quoted by publicly available information. Counterparty risk is represented by CDS spreads related to the senior secured debt of the respective bank with whom FactSet has executed these derivative transactions. As CDS spread information is &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; available for FactSet, the Company&amp;#x2019;s credit risk is determined based on using a simple average of CDS spreads for peer companies. To mitigate counterparty credit risk, FactSet enters into contracts with large financial institutions and regularly reviews its credit exposure balances as well as the creditworthiness of the counterparties. The Company does &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; expect any losses as a result of default of its counterparties.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;The risk-free interest rate assumption for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatility is based on a combination of historical volatility of the Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s stock and implied volatilities of publicly traded options to buy FactSet common stock with contractual terms closest to the expected life of options granted to employees. The approach to utilize a mix of historical and implied volatility was based upon the availability of actively traded options on the Company&amp;#x2019;s stock and the Company&amp;#x2019;s assessment that a combination of implied volatility and historical volatility is best representative of future stock price trends. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercises and employee termination within the valuation model. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company&amp;#x2019;s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The expected life of employee stock options represents the weighted average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is a derived output of the binomial model. The binomial model estimates employees exercise behavior based on the option&amp;#x2019;s remaining vested life and the extent to which the option is in-the-money. The binomial model estimates the probability of exercise as a function of these &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;two&lt;/div&gt; variables based on the entire history of exercises and cancellations of all past option grants made by the Company.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Non-Employee Director Stock Option Fair &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Value Determinations&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;The &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2008&lt;/div&gt; Non-Employee Directors&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019; Stock Option Plan (the &amp;#x201c;Directors&amp;#x2019; Plan&amp;#x201d;) provides for the grant of share-based awards, including stock options, to non-employee directors of FactSet. An initial &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;250,000&lt;/div&gt; shares of FactSet common stock were reserved for issuance under the Directors&amp;#x2019; Plan, of which &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;42,185&lt;/div&gt; remain available for future grant as of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017. &lt;/div&gt;The expiration date of the Directors&amp;#x2019; Plan is &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December 1, 2018. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of non-employee Director stock option grants. The Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant is affected by the Company&amp;#x2019;s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of variables. These variables include, but are &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; limited to the Company&amp;#x2019;s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, interest rates, option forfeitures and employee stock option exercise behaviors.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;201&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;8&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;There were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; stock options granted to the Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s non-employee Directors during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;There were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; stock options granted to the Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s non-employee Directors during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017.&lt;/div&gt; However, on &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; January 13, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;FactSet granted &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;23,846&lt;/div&gt; stock options to the Company&amp;#x2019;s non-employee Directors, including &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;one&lt;/div&gt;-time new Director grants of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2,104&lt;/div&gt; stock options each for Malcolm Frank and Sheila B.

The Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company&amp;#x2019;s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; limited to the Company&amp;#x2019;s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, interest rates, option forfeiture rates and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. Option-pricing models were developed for use in estimating the value of traded options that have &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; vesting or hedging restrictions and are fully transferable.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:DisclosureOfCompensationRelatedCostsShareBasedPaymentsTextBlock>

In determining fair value, the use of various valuation methodologies, including market, income and cost approaches is permissible. The Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Fair Value Hierarchy&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;The accounting guidance for fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; levels of inputs that &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;be used to measure fair value based on the reliability of inputs. A financial instrument&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company&amp;#x2019;s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;affect their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. FactSet has categorized its cash equivalents, investments and derivatives within the fair value hierarchy as follows:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt; &amp;#x2013; applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1&lt;/div&gt; assets and liabilities include the Company&amp;#x2019;s corporate money market funds that are classified as cash equivalents.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt; &amp;#x2013; applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. The Company&amp;#x2019;s certificates of deposit, mutual funds and derivative instruments are classified as Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;3&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt; &amp;#x2013; applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. There were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit;

The fair values of these non-financial assets and liabilities are determined based on valuation techniques using the best information available, and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;include quoted market prices, market comparables, and discounted cash flow projections.

The fair value of the Company&amp;#x2019;s long-term debt was determined based on quoted market prices for debt with a similar maturity, and thus categorized as Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2&lt;/div&gt; in the fair value hierarchy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:FairValueMeasurementInputsDisclosureTextBlock>

At least annually, the Company is required to test goodwill at the reporting unit level for potential impairment, and, if impaired, write down to fair value based on the present value of discounted cash flows. The Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s reporting units evaluated for potential impairment were the U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific, which reflect the level of internal reporting the Company uses to manage its business and operations. The &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; reporting units are consistent with the operating segments reported as there is &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; discrete financial information available for the subsidiaries within each operating segment. The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;fourth&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017,&lt;/div&gt; consistent with the timing of previous years, at which time it was determined that there was &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; impairment, with the fair value of each of the Company&amp;#x2019;s reporting units significantly exceeding carrying value.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:GoodwillDisclosureTextBlock>

&lt;td nowrap="nowrap" style="width: 1%; border-bottom: 1px none rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-left: 0pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt;  &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;No&lt;/div&gt; U.S. income taxes have been provided on undistributed foreign earnings and profits as of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;as FactSet plans to permanently reinvest these amounts and use the earnings to fund non-U.S. operations and working capital needs as well as facilities overseas. This includes, but is &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; limited to, capital expenditures and acquisitions intended to further FactSet&amp;#x2019;s global growth strategy. At each reporting period, FactSet assesses its position with regard to the undistributed foreign earnings of its subsidiaries. To the extent that earnings can &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; longer be indefinitely reinvested, the Company will accrue the tax impact, if any, attributable to those earnings, including the impact of foreign tax credits, at such time. If such earnings are repatriated, additional tax expense &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;result, although the flexibility inherent in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;permit the ultimate distribution to be tax-free depending on the nature of the distribution. Therefore, the Company does &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; believe it is practicable to estimate, with reasonable accuracy, the hypothetical amount of the unrecognized deferred tax liability on its undistributed foreign earnings given the many factors and assumptions necessary to estimate the amount of the federal income tax that &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;be payable in the future on the undistributed earnings.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Unrecognized Tax Positions&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;Applicable accounting guidance prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, classification and disclosure of uncertain tax positions that a company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. A company can recognize the financial effect of an income tax position only if it is more likely than &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; (greater than &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;50%&lt;/div&gt;) that the tax position will prevail upon tax examination, based solely on the technical merits of the tax position. Otherwise, &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; benefit or expense can be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The tax benefits recognized are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;fifty&lt;/div&gt; percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Additionally, companies are required to accrue interest on all tax exposures for which reserves have been established consistent with jurisdictional tax laws.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;As of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits totaling &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$9.5&lt;/div&gt; million, including &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$1.4&lt;/div&gt; million of accrued interest, recorded as &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;N&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;on-current taxes payable&lt;/div&gt; within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Unrecognized tax benefits represent tax positions taken on tax returns but &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; yet recognized in the consolidated financial statements. When applicable, the Company adjusts the previously recorded tax expense to reflect examination results when the position is ultimately settled. The Company regularly engages in discussions and negotiations with tax authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. It is reasonably possible that certain federal, foreign, and state tax matters &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;be concluded in the next &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;12&lt;/div&gt; months. However, FactSet has &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; reason to believe that such audits will result in the payment of additional taxes and/or penalties that would have a material adverse effect on the Company&amp;#x2019;s results of operations or financial position, beyond current estimates. Any changes in accounting estimates resulting from new developments with respect to uncertain tax positions will be recorded as appropriate. The Company does &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; currently anticipate that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within the next &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;12&lt;/div&gt; months.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" margin: 0pt; text-align: left; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;The following table summarizes the changes in the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits during the &lt;div style="display: inline;

FactSet &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may &lt;/div&gt;request borrowings under the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Revolving Credit Facility until its maturity date of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; March 17, 2020. &lt;/div&gt;The &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Credit Agreement also allows FactSet, subject to certain requirements, to arrange for additional borrowings with PNC for an aggregate amount of up to &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$225.0&lt;/div&gt; million, provided that any such request for additional borrowings must be in a minimum amount of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$25.0&lt;/div&gt; million. Borrowings under the loan bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate equal to the daily LIBOR rate plus &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1.00%.&lt;/div&gt; Interest on the loan outstanding is payable quarterly in arrears and on the maturity date. There are &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; prepayment penalties if the Company elects to prepay the outstanding loan amounts prior to the scheduled maturity date. The principal balance is payable in full on the maturity date. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;In conjunction with FactSet&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s entrance into the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Credit Agreement, the Company borrowed &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$575.0&lt;/div&gt; million in the form of a LIBOR rate loan under the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Revolving Credit Facility. Proceeds from the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Revolving Credit Facility were also used to fund FactSet&amp;#x2019;s acquisition of BISAM. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;All outstanding loan amounts are&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt; reported as &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;L&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;ong-term debt&lt;/div&gt; within the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and net of related amortized loan origination fees at &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017. &lt;/div&gt;The loan origination fees are amortized into interest expense over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. During the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; months ended &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017 &lt;/div&gt;and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2016,&lt;/div&gt; the Company paid approximately &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$3.4&lt;/div&gt; million and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$1.1&lt;/div&gt; million in interest on its outstanding debt amounts, respectively. As of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; commitment fee was owed by FactSet since it borrowed the full amount under the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Credit Agreement. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;"&gt;The &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Credit Agreement contained covenants restricting certain FactSet activities, which are usual and customary for this type of loan. &lt;/div&gt;In addition, the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Credit Agreement required that FactSet maintain a consolidated leverage ratio, as measured by total funded debt/EBITDA below a specified level as of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Company was in material compliance with all of the covenants of the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt; Credit Agreement as of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:LongTermDebtTextBlock>

There were &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;no&lt;/div&gt; new standards or updates adopted during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; months of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018&lt;/div&gt; that had a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; text-decoration: underline;"&gt;New Accounting Standards or Updates Recently Adopted&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;During the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018,&lt;/div&gt; FactSet adopted the accounting standard update issued by the FASB in &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 2015 &lt;/div&gt;to simplify the presentation of deferred taxes on the balance sheet. This accounting standard update requires an entity to present all deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as non-current on the balance sheet. Under the previous guidance, entities were required to separately present deferred taxes as current or non-current. Netting deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities by tax jurisdiction will still be required under the new guidance. This accounting &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;standard update is a change to the balance sheet presentation only. The changes have been applied prospectively as permitted by the standard and prior periods have &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; been restated. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Share-Based Payments&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;During the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018,&lt;/div&gt; FactSet adopted the accounting standard update issued by the FASB in &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; March 2016, &lt;/div&gt;which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flow&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;s. This accounting standard update will increase the volatility within the Company&amp;#x2019;s provision for income taxes as all excess tax benefits or deficiencies related to share-based payments, that were previously reported within equity, are now recognized in the consolidated statement of income. In addition, this standard&amp;nbsp;changes the classification of excess tax benefits presented in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows from a financing activity to an operating activity, which has be applied on a prospective basis as permitted by the standard and prior periods have &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; been restated. Share-based payment expense will continue to reflect estimated forfeitures of share-based payment awards. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recognition of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$4.1&lt;/div&gt; million of excess tax benefits to FactSet&amp;#x2019;s provision for income taxes during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018.&lt;/div&gt; The recognition of these benefits contributed &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$0.09&lt;/div&gt; to diluted earnings per share for the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; months ended &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017. &lt;/div&gt;The remaining provisions of this standard did &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; have a material impact on the Company&amp;#x2019;s consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" margin: 0pt; text-align: left; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Recent Accounting Standards or Updates &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;Not&lt;/div&gt; Yet Effective&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Revenue Recognition&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; May 2014 &lt;/div&gt;and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; July 2015, &lt;/div&gt;the FASB issued accounting standard updates&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, which provide clarified principles for recognizing revenue arising from contracts with clients and supersede most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to clients in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. These accounting standard updates will be effective for FactSet beginning in the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2019,&lt;/div&gt; with early adoption in fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018&lt;/div&gt; permitted and allow for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. The Company plans to adopt the standard on &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; September 1, 2018 &lt;/div&gt;and is currently evaluating the impact of these accounting standard updates on its consolidated financial statements and the method of adoption.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; January 2016, &lt;/div&gt;the FASB issued an accounting standard update to amend its current guidance on the classification and measurement of certain financial instruments. The account&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;ing standard update significantly revises an entity&amp;#x2019;s accounting related to the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. This guidance also amends certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments. This guidance will be effective for FactSet beginning in the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2019.&lt;/div&gt; The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Leases&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; February 2016, &lt;/div&gt;the FASB issued an accounting standard update related to accounting for leases. The guidance introduces a lessee model that requires most leases to be reported on the balance sheet. The accounting standard update aligns many of the underlying principles of the new lessor model with those in the FASB&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s new revenue recognition standard. The guidance also eliminates the requirement in current U.S. GAAP for an entity to use bright-line tests in determining lease classification.

A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit&amp;#x2019;s carrying value exceeds its fair value, &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.

The guidance refines and expands hedge accounting for both financial and nonfinancial risk components, eliminates the need to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness, and aligns the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements.

This accounting standard update requires an entity to present all deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as non-current on the balance sheet. Under the previous guidance, entities were required to separately present deferred taxes as current or non-current. Netting deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities by tax jurisdiction will still be required under the new guidance. This accounting &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;standard update is a change to the balance sheet presentation only. The changes have been applied prospectively as permitted by the standard and prior periods have &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; been restated. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Share-Based Payments&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;During the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018,&lt;/div&gt; FactSet adopted the accounting standard update issued by the FASB in &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; March 2016, &lt;/div&gt;which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flow&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;s. This accounting standard update will increase the volatility within the Company&amp;#x2019;s provision for income taxes as all excess tax benefits or deficiencies related to share-based payments, that were previously reported within equity, are now recognized in the consolidated statement of income. In addition, this standard&amp;nbsp;changes the classification of excess tax benefits presented in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows from a financing activity to an operating activity, which has be applied on a prospective basis as permitted by the standard and prior periods have &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; been restated. Share-based payment expense will continue to reflect estimated forfeitures of share-based payment awards. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recognition of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$4.1&lt;/div&gt; million of excess tax benefits to FactSet&amp;#x2019;s provision for income taxes during the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018.&lt;/div&gt; The recognition of these benefits contributed &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$0.09&lt;/div&gt; to diluted earnings per share for the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; months ended &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017. &lt;/div&gt;The remaining provisions of this standard did &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; have a material impact on the Company&amp;#x2019;s consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" margin: 0pt; text-align: left; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Recent Accounting Standards or Updates &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;Not&lt;/div&gt; Yet Effective&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Revenue Recognition&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; May 2014 &lt;/div&gt;and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; July 2015, &lt;/div&gt;the FASB issued accounting standard updates&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, which provide clarified principles for recognizing revenue arising from contracts with clients and supersede most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to clients in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. These accounting standard updates will be effective for FactSet beginning in the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2019,&lt;/div&gt; with early adoption in fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018&lt;/div&gt; permitted and allow for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. The Company plans to adopt the standard on &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; September 1, 2018 &lt;/div&gt;and is currently evaluating the impact of these accounting standard updates on its consolidated financial statements and the method of adoption.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; January 2016, &lt;/div&gt;the FASB issued an accounting standard update to amend its current guidance on the classification and measurement of certain financial instruments. The account&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;ing standard update significantly revises an entity&amp;#x2019;s accounting related to the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. This guidance also amends certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments.

The guidance is intended to reduce diversity in practice related to the tax consequences of certain types of intra-entity asset transfers, particularly those involving intellectual property. This accounting standard update will be effective for FactSet beginning in the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2019.&lt;/div&gt; The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Goodwill Impairment Test&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; January 2017, &lt;/div&gt;the FASB issued an accounting standard update&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, which removes the requirement for companies to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2&lt;/div&gt; of the goodwill impairment test. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit&amp;#x2019;s carrying value exceeds its fair value, &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This accounting standard update will be effective for FactSet beginning in the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2021,&lt;/div&gt; with early adoption permitted for any impairment tests performed after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; January 1, 2017. &lt;/div&gt;The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" margin: 0pt; text-align: left; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Hedge Accounting Simplification&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; August 2017, &lt;/div&gt;the FASB issued an accounting standard update to reduce the complexity of and simplify the application of hedging accounting. The guidance refines and expands hedge accounting for both financial and nonfinancial risk components, eliminates the need to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness, and aligns the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. This guidance will be effective for FactSet beginning in the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt; quarter of fiscal &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2020,&lt;/div&gt; with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:NewAccountingPronouncementsPolicyPolicyTextBlock>

Senior management, along with the CEO, constitute FactSet&amp;#x2019;s chief operating decision making group (&amp;#x201c;CODMG&amp;#x201d;) and is responsible for making decisions about resources allocated amongst the operating segments based on actual results. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;FactSet&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s operating segments are aligned with how the Company, including its CODMG, manages the business and the demographic markets in which FactSet serves. The Company&amp;#x2019;s internal financial reporting structure is based on &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; segments; the U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific. FactSet believes this alignment helps it better manage the business and view the markets the Company serves, which are centered on providing integrated global financial and economic information. Sales, consulting, data collection, product development and software engineering are the primary functional groups within the U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific segments that provide global financial and economic information to investment managers, investment banks and other financial services professionals. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;     &lt;div style=" margin: 0pt; text-align: left; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;The U.S. segment services &lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;investment professionals including financial institutions throughout the Americas. The European and Asia Pacific segments service investment professionals located throughout Europe and the Asia Pacific region, respectively. The European segment maintains office locations in England, Bulgaria, Dubai, France, Germany, Italy, Latvia, the Netherlands, Spain, and Switzerland. The Asia Pacific segment has office locations in Australia, Hong Kong, India, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore and South Africa. Segment revenues reflect direct sales to clients based in their respective geographic locations. Each segment records compensation expense, including stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, depreciation of furniture and fixtures, amortization of leasehold improvements, communication costs, professional fees, rent expense, travel, office and other direct expenses. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;Expenditures associated with the Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s data centers, &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;third&lt;/div&gt; party data costs and corporate charges are recorded by the U.S. segment and are &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;not&lt;/div&gt; allocated to the other segments. The content collection centers located in India and the Philippines benefit all of the Company&amp;#x2019;s operating segments and thus the expenses incurred at these locations are allocated to each segment based on a percentage of revenues. Of the total &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;$712.5&lt;/div&gt; million of goodwill reported by the Company at &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November 30, 2017, &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;54%&lt;/div&gt; was recorded in the U.S. segment, &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;45%&lt;/div&gt; in the European segment and the remaining &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1%&lt;/div&gt; in the Asia Pacific segment.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;The following reflects the results of operations of the segments consistent with the Company&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#x2019;s management system. These results are used by management, both in evaluating the performance of, and in allocating resources to, each of the segments.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline;

The Tax Act introduces changes&lt;div style="display: inline; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, including the reduction of the corporate income statutory tax rate from &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;35%&lt;/div&gt; to &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;21%&lt;/div&gt; effective &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; January 1, 2018 &lt;/div&gt;as well as a variety of other changes including the limitation of the tax deductibility of interest expense, acceleration of expensing of certain business assets, the transition of U.S. international taxation from a worldwide tax system to a territorial tax system, and reductions in the amount of executive pay that could qualify as a tax deduction. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the Tax Act on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:SubsequentEventsTextBlock>
