Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, if the combined company is required to divest assets or businesses for which 2017 annual revenues exceed $75 million , up to a cap of $225 million , in order to receive required regulatory approvals, the purchase price will be adjusted down on a pro-rata basis to a minimum purchase price of $45.50 per share of common stock of Stewart. If the Stewart Merger is not completed for failure to obtain the required regulatory approvals, we are required to pay a reverse break-up fee of $50 million to Stewart.

FNF currently intends to fund the $1.2 billion purchase price through a combination of cash on hand at FNF, debt financing and the issuance of FNF common stock to Stewart stockholders. Including the assumption of $109 million of Stewart debt, pro forma debt to total capital is expected to be no more than approximately 20% at the close of the transaction.

The closing of the Stewart Merger is subject to certain closing conditions, including Stewart stockholder approval, federal and state regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Closing of the Stewart Merger is expected in the first or second quarter of 2019.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share, as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings, is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders in a given period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during such period. In periods when earnings are positive, diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the impact of assumed conversions of potentially dilutive securities. For periods when we recognize a net loss, diluted earnings per share is equal to basic earnings per share as the impact of assumed conversions of potentially dilutive securities is considered to be antidilutive. We have granted certain stock options, shares of restricted stock, convertible debt instruments and certain other convertible share based payments which have been treated as common share equivalents for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share for periods in which positive earnings have been reported.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — continued

Options or other instruments which provide the ability to purchase shares of our common stock that are antidilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. There were no antidilutive options outstanding during the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 . There were 2 million antidilutive options outstanding during the three-month period ended March 31, 2017.

Income Tax

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”). Among other provisions, the Tax Reform Act reduced the Federal statutory corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% and limited or eliminated certain deductions. Our effective tax rate was 24.4% and 54.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease was primarily attributable to the Tax Reform Act and increased tax expense of $21 million in the 2017 period resulting from a change in judgment of the tax deductibility of legal settlements finalized in the period.

SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 ("SAB 118"), has provided guidance for companies that have not completed their accounting for the income tax effects of the Tax Reform Act in the period of enactment, allowing for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. As of March 31, 2018 , we have not completed our accounting for the tax effects of the enactment of the Tax Reform Act, however, we have made a reasonable estimate of the effects on our deferred tax balances. In other cases, we have not been able to make a reasonable estimate and will continue to analyze the Tax Reform Act in order to finalize any related impacts within the measurement period.

Discontinued Operations

On November 17, 2017, we completed our previously announced split-off (the “FNFV Split-Off”) of our former wholly-owned subsidiary Cannae Holdings, Inc. (“Cannae”) which consisted of the businesses, assets and liabilities formerly attributed to our FNF Ventures ("FNFV") Group including Ceridian Holding, LLC, American Blue Ribbon Holdings, LLC and T-System Holding LLC. The FNFV Split-Off was accomplished by the Company's redemption (the “Redemption”) of all of the outstanding shares of FNFV Group common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“FNFV common stock”) for outstanding shares of common stock of Cannae, par value $0.0001 per share (“Cannae common stock”), amounting to a redemption of each outstanding share of FNFV common stock for one share of Cannae common stock, as of November 17, 2017. As a result of the FNFV Split-Off, Cannae is a separate, publicly traded company (NYSE: CNNE) as of November 20, 2017. All of the Company’s core title insurance, real estate, technology and mortgage related businesses, assets and liabilities currently attributed to the Company’s FNF Group common stock that are not held by Cannae remain with the Company. As a result of the FNFV Split-Off, the financial results of FNFV Group have been reclassified to discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

On September 29, 2017 we completed our tax-free distribution, to FNF Group shareholders, of all 83.3 million shares of New BKH Corp. ("New BKH") common stock that we previously owned (the “BK Distribution”). Immediately following the BK Distribution, New BKH and Black Knight Financial Services, Inc. ("Black Knight") engaged in a series of transactions resulting in the formation of a new publicly traded holding company, Black Knight, Inc. ("New Black Knight"). Holders of FNF Group common stock received approximately 0.30663 shares of New Black Knight common stock for every one share of FNF Group common stock held at the close of business on September 20, 2017, the record date for the BK Distribution. New Black Knight's common stock is now listed under the symbol “BKI” on the New York Stock Exchange. The BK Distribution is expected to generally be tax-free to FNF Group shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of New Black Knight's fractional shares. As a result of the BK Distribution, the financial results of Black Knight have been reclassified to discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

See Note K. Discontinued Operations for further details of the results of FNFV and Black Knight.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) . This ASU provides a new comprehensive revenue recognition model that requires companies to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This update also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. This update permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations was issued by FASB in March 2016 to clarify the principal versus agent considerations within ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing was issued by the FASB in April 2016 to clarify how to determine whether goods and services are separately identifiable and thus accounted

for as separate performance obligations. ASU 2016-12 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients was issued by the FASB in May 2016 to clarify certain terms from the aforementioned updates and to add practical expedients for contracts at various stages of completion. ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , was issued by the FASB in December 2016 which includes thirteen technical corrections and improvements affecting narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2014-09.

We adopted these revenue standards on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. As there was no impact to our historical revenue recognition, we did not record a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the current year. See Note J. Revenue Recognition for further discussion of our revenue.

Other Adopted Pronouncements

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01 Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities . The primary amendments required by the ASU include: requiring equity investments with readily determinable fair values to be measured at fair value through net income rather than through other comprehensive income; allowing entities with equity investments without readily determinable fair values to report the investments at cost, adjusted for changes in observable prices, less impairment; requiring entities that elect the fair value option for financial liabilities to report the change in fair value attributable to instrument-specific credit risk in other comprehensive income; and clarifying that entities should assess the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale debt securities in combination with other deferred tax assets. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The ASU requires a cumulative-effect adjustment of the balance sheet as of the beginning of the year of adoption. Early adoption of the ASU is not permitted, except for the provision related to financial liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected.

We adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2018, which resulted in the reclassification of our unrealized gains and losses on our equity and preferred securities available for sale previously included in accumulated other comprehensive income to beginning retained earnings. Changes in the fair value of our investments in equity and preferred securities subsequent to January 1, 2018 are now included in our earnings from continuing operations. We reclassified a total of $109 million from Accumulated other comprehensive income to beginning Retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. The total cumulative effect on opening equity, including an increase in Retained earnings of $19 million attributable to an increase in value of certain Other long term investments resulting from recording at fair value, was an increase in Retained earnings of $128 million and decrease in Accumulated other comprehensive income of $109 million .

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash . The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. GAAP currently does not include specific guidance on the cash flow classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash. The Company previously excluded cash pledged related to secured trust deposits, which generally meets the definition of restricted cash, from the reconciliation of beginning-of-period to end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The ASU requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented upon adoption.

We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2018. The adoption of this ASU resulted in the following retrospective changes to our Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017: an increase in the net change in cash and cash equivalents of $67 million due to the inclusion of the change in our cash pledged against secured trust deposits, an increase in investing cash inflow of $179 million related to the movement of cash paid for investments pledged against secured trust deposits from operating to investing activities, and an increase in financing cash outflow of $112 million related to the movement of the change in secured trust deposits from operating to financing activities.

Other Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) . The amendments in this ASU introduce broad changes to the accounting and reporting for leases by lessees. The main provisions of the new standard include: clarifications to the definitions of a lease, components of leases, and criteria for determining lease classification; requiring virtually all leased assets, including operating leases and related liabilities resulting from applying the fair value measurement, to be reflected on the lessee's balance sheet; and expanding and adding to the required disclosures for lessees. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of the standard is permitted. The ASU requires a modified retrospective approach to transitioning which allows for the use of practical expedients to effectively account for leases commenced prior to the effective date in accordance with previous GAAP, except that

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — continued

lessees are required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all operating leases at each reporting date based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments that were tracked and disclosed under previous GAAP. We are still evaluating the totality of the effects this new guidance will have on our business process and systems, consolidated financial statements, and related disclosures. We have identified a vendor with software suited to track and account for leases under the new standard. We have not concluded on the anticipated financial statement effects of adoption. We plan to adopt this standard on January 1, 2019.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The amendments in this ASU introduce broad changes to accounting for credit impairment of financial instruments. The primary updates include the introduction of a new current expected credit loss ("CECL") model that is based on expected rather than incurred losses and amendments to the accounting for impairment of fixed maturity securities available for sale. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect this new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and have not yet concluded on its effects. We do not plan to early adopt the standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The new guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the effect this new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and have not yet concluded on its effects.

Note B — Summary of Reserve for Claim Losses

A summary of the reserve for claim losses follows:



	Three months ended March 31,
	2018			2017
	(Dollars in millions)
Beginning balance	$	1,490		$	1,487
Change in reinsurance recoverable	—			(4		)
Claim loss provision related to:
Current year	47			51

Total title claim loss provision	47			52
Claims paid, net of recoupments related to:

Total title claims paid, net of recoupments	(51		)	(51		)
Ending balance of claim loss reserve for title insurance	$	1,486		$	1,484
Provision for title insurance claim losses as a percentage of title insurance premiums	4.5		%	5.0		%

We continually update loss reserve estimates as new information becomes known, new loss patterns emerge, or as other contributing factors are considered and incorporated into the analysis of reserve for claim losses. Estimating future title loss payments is difficult because of the complex nature of title claims, the long periods of time over which claims are paid, significantly varying dollar amounts of individual claims and other factors.

Due to the uncertainty inherent in the process and to the judgment used by management, the ultimate liability may be greater or less than our current reserves. If actual claims loss development varies from what is currently expected and is not offset by other

factors, it is possible that our recorded reserves may fall outside a reasonable range of our actuary's central estimate, which may require additional reserve adjustments in future periods.

Our Level 2 fair value measures for preferred securities and fixed-maturity securities available for sale are provided by a third-party pricing service. We utilize one firm for our preferred stock and our bond portfolios . The pricing service is a leading global provider of financial market data, analytics and related services to financial institutions. The inputs utilized in these pricing methodologies include observable measures such as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. We review the pricing methodologies for all of our Level 2 securities by obtaining an understanding of the valuation models and assumptions used by the third-party as well as independently comparing the resulting prices to other publicly available measures of fair value and internally developed models. The pricing methodologies used by the relevant third party pricing services are as follows:


•	U.S. government and agencies: These securities are valued based on data obtained for similar securities in active markets and from inter-dealer brokers.


•	State and political subdivisions: These securities are valued based on data obtained for similar securities in active markets and from inter-dealer brokers. Factors considered include relevant trade information, dealer quotes and other relevant market data.


•	Corporate debt securities: These securities are valued based on dealer quotes and related market trading activity. Factors considered include the bond's yield, its terms and conditions, or any other feature which may influence its risk and thus marketability, as well as relative credit information and relevant sector news.


•	Foreign government bonds: These securities are valued based on a discounted cash flow model incorporating observable market inputs such as available broker quotes and yields of comparable securities.


•	Mortgage-backed/asset-backed securities: These securities are comprised of commercial mortgage-backed securities, agency mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and asset-backed securities. They are valued

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — continued

based on available trade information, dealer quotes, cash flows, relevant indices and market data for similar assets in active markets.


•	Preferred securities: Preferred securities are valued by calculating the appropriate spread over a comparable U.S. Treasury security. Inputs include benchmark quotes and other relevant market data.

In conjunction with our adoption of ASU No. 2016-01, beginning January 1, 2018, we began recording certain equity investments included in other long term investments at fair value which were previously accounted for as cost method investments. See discussion of Recent Accounting Pronouncements in Note A. Basis of Financial Statements for further information on the impact of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-01.

Our Level 3 fair value measures for other long term investments are provided by a third-party pricing service. We utilize one firm to value our Level 3 other long term investment. The pricing service is a leading global provider of financial market data, analytics and related services to financial institutions. We utilize the income approach and a discounted cash flow analysis in determining the fair value of our Level 3 other long term investment. The primary unobservable input utilized in this pricing methodology is the discount rate used which is determined based on underwriting yield, credit spreads, yields on benchmark indices, and comparable public company debt. The discount rate used in our determination of the fair value of our Level 3 other long term investment as of March 31, 2018 was 8.0% . Based on the total fair value of our Level 3 other long term investment as of March 31, 2018, changes in the discount rate utilized will not result in a fair value significantly different than the amount recorded.

The following table presents a summary of the changes in the fair values of Level 3 assets, measured on a recurring basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2018.



	March 31, 2018
	Other long-term		Corporate debt
	investments		securities		Total
	(In millions)
Fair value, December 31, 2017	$	—	$	—	$	—

Transfers from Level 2	—		13		13
Paid-in-kind dividends	1		—		1
Total	$	101	$	13	$	114

Transfers into or out of the Level 3 fair value category occur when unobservable inputs become more or less significant to the fair value measurement or upon a change in valuation technique. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 were based on changes in significance of unobservable inputs used associated with a change in the valuation technique used for certain of the Company’s corporate debt securities and are not considered material to the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period.

We recorded no realized or unrealized gains or losses in net earnings or other comprehensive (loss) earnings related to the change in fair value or sales of assets measured using Level 3 inputs in the three months ended March 31, 2018 or 2017.

As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, we held no material assets or liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs.

The carrying amounts of short-term investments, accounts receivable and notes receivable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Additional information regarding the fair value of our investment portfolio is included in Note D. Investments .

Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because certain borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Because of the potential for prepayment on mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, they are not categorized by contractual maturity.

Note E —Notes Payable

Notes payable consists of the following:



	March 31, 2018		December 31, 2017
	(In millions)
Unsecured notes, net of discount, interest payable semi-annually at 5.50%, due September 2022	$	398	$	397
Unsecured convertible notes, net of discount, interest payable semi-annually at 4.25%, due August 2018	53		65
Revolving Credit Facility, unsecured, unused portion of $500, due April 2022 with interest payable quarterly at LIBOR + 1.40% (3.12% at March 31, 2018)	295		295
Other	2		2
	$	748	$	759

At March 31, 2018 , the estimated fair value of our long-term debt was approximately $899 million , which was $144 million higher than its carrying value, excluding $7 million of net unamortized debt issuance costs and premium/discount. The fair value of our unsecured notes payable was $597 million as of March 31, 2018 . The fair values of our unsecured notes payable are based on established market prices for the securities on March 31, 2018 and are considered Level 2 financial liabilities. The carrying value of the Revolving Credit Facility approximates fair value at March 31, 2018 , as it is a variable rate instrument with a short reset period (monthly) which reflects current market rates. The revolving credit facilities are considered Level 2 financial liabilities.

On June 25, 2013, FNF entered into an agreement to amend and restate our existing $800 million Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Existing Credit Agreement”), dated as of April 16, 2012 with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and the other agents party thereto (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). On April 27, 2017, the Existing Credit Agreement was amended (the "Restated Credit Agreement").The material terms of the Revolving Credit Facility are set forth in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2018 ,

there was $295 million outstanding, net of $5 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, and $500 million of remaining borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility.

On August 28, 2012, FNF completed an offering of $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% notes due September 2022 (the " 5.50% notes"), pursuant to an effective registration statement previously filed with the SEC. The material terms of the 5.50% notes are set forth in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017.

On August 2, 2011, FNF completed an offering of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.25% convertible senior notes due August 2018 (the "Notes") in an offering conducted in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The material terms of the Notes are set forth in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017. Beginning October 1, 2013, these notes are convertible under the 130% Sale Price Condition described in our Annual Report. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we repurchased Notes with aggregate principal of $16 million for $47 million . Upon maturity of the Notes in August 2018, we expect to settle in cash, pay approximately $163 million , and record a gain of approximately $6 million based on stock prices and conversion rates as of March 31, 2018.



Gross principal maturities of notes payable at March 31, 2018 are as follows (in millions):

Note F — Commitments and Contingencies

Legal and Regulatory Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending and threatened litigation matters related to our operations, some of which include claims for punitive or exemplary damages. With respect to our title insurance operations, this customary litigation includes but is not limited to a wide variety of cases arising out of or related to title and escrow claims, for which we make provisions through our loss reserves. Additionally, like other companies, our ordinary course litigation includes a number of class action and purported class action lawsuits, which make allegations related to aspects of our operations. We believe that no actions, other than the matters discussed below, if any, depart from customary litigation incidental to our business.

We review lawsuits and other legal and regulatory matters (collectively “legal proceedings”) on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. When assessing reasonably possible and probable outcomes, management bases its decision on its assessment of the ultimate outcome assuming all appeals have been exhausted. For legal proceedings in which it has been determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability based on known facts and which represents our best estimate has been recorded. Our accrual for legal and regulatory matters was $11 million and $2 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. None of the amounts we have currently recorded are considered to be material to our financial condition individually or in the aggregate. Actual losses may materially differ from the amounts recorded and the ultimate outcome of our pending legal proceedings is generally not yet determinable. While some of these matters could be material to our operating results or cash flows for any particular period if an unfavorable outcome results, at present we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of currently pending legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

From time to time we receive inquiries and requests for information from state insurance departments, attorneys general and other regulatory agencies about various matters relating to our business. Sometimes these take the form of civil investigative demands or subpoenas. We cooperate with all such inquiries and we have responded to or are currently responding to inquiries from multiple governmental agencies. Also, regulators and courts have been dealing with issues arising from foreclosures and related processes and documentation. Various governmental entities are studying the title insurance product, market, pricing, and business practices, and potential regulatory and legislative changes, which may materially affect our business and operations. From time to time, we are assessed fines for violations of regulations or other matters or enter into settlements with such authorities which may require us to pay fines or claims or take other actions.

Note J — Revenue Recognition

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606 by applying the modified retrospective method. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the prior period.

The adoption of ASC Topic 606 did not have an impact on the recognition of our primary sources of revenue, direct and agency title premiums, as those revenue streams are subject to the accounting and reporting requirements under ASC Topic 944. Timing of recognition of substantially all of our remaining revenue was also not impacted and we therefore did not record any cumulative effect adjustment to opening equity.

Our Direct title insurance premiums are recognized as revenue at the time of closing of the underlying transaction as the earnings process is then considered complete. Regulation of title insurance rates varies by state. Premiums are charged to customers based on rates predetermined in coordination with each states' respective Department of Insurance. Cash associated with such revenue is typically collected at closing of the underlying real estate transaction. Premium revenues from agency title operations are recognized when the underlying title order and transaction closing, if applicable, are complete and the agent has been invoiced.

Revenues from our home warranty business are generated from contracts with customers to provide warranty for major home appliances. Contracts are one year in length and revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the contract.

Escrow fees and Other title-related fees and income in our Title segment are closely related to Direct title insurance premiums and are primarily associated with managing the closing of real estate transactions including the processing of funds on behalf of the transaction participants, gathering and recording the required closing documents, providing notary and home inspection services, and other real estate or title related activities. Revenue is primarily recognized upon closing of the underlying real estate transaction or completion of services. Cash associated with such revenue is typically collected at closing.

Revenues from our ServiceLink subsidiary, excluding its title premiums, escrow fees, and loan subservicing fees primarily include revenues from real estate appraisal services and foreclosure processing and facilitation services. Revenues from real estate appraisal services are recognized when all appraisal work is complete, a final report is issued to the client and the client is billed. Revenues from foreclosure processing and facilitation services are primarily recognized upon completion of the services and when billing to the client is complete.

Real estate brokerage revenues are primarily comprised of commission revenues earned in association with the facilitation of real estate transactions and are recognized upon closing of the sale of the underlying real estate transaction.

FIDELITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — continued

Real estate technology revenues are primarily comprised of subscription fees for use of software provided to real estate professionals. Subscriptions are only offered on a month-by-month basis and fees are billed monthly. Revenue is recognized in the month services are provided.

Loan subservicing revenues are generated by certain subsidiaries of ServiceLink and are associated with the servicing of mortgage loans on behalf of its customers. Revenue is recognized when the underlying work is performed and billed. Loan subservicing revenues are subject to the recognition requirements of ASC Topic 860.

Interest and investment income consists primarily of interest payments received on fixed maturity security holdings and dividends received on equity and preferred security holdings.

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, primarily related to revenue from our home warranty business, and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Contract Balances

The following table provides information about receivables and deferred revenue:

Deferred revenue is recorded primarily for our home warranty contracts. Revenues from home warranty products are recognized over the life of the policy, which is one year. The unrecognized portion is recorded as deferred revenue in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized $46 million of revenue which was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period.

Note K — Discontinued Operations

Black Knight

As a result of the BK Distribution, we have reclassified the financial results of Black Knight to discontinued operations for all periods presented in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We retained no ownership in Black Knight. Subsequent to the BK Distribution, Black Knight is considered a related party to FNF.

We have various agreements with Black Knight to provide technology, data and analytics services, as well as corporate shared services and information technology. We are also a party to certain other agreements under which we incur other expenses or receive revenues from Black Knight. We expect to continue utilizing Black Knight to provide technology and data and analytics services for the foreseeable future. The cash inflows and outflows from and to Black Knight as well as revenues and expenses included in continuing operations in the three months ended March 31, 2018 which were previously eliminated in our condensed consolidated financial statements as intra-entity transactions are not material to our results of operations.

FNFV

As a result of the FNFV Split-Off we have reclassified the financial results of FNFV Group to discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Subsequent to the FNFV Split-Off, Cannae is considered a related party to FNF. The cash inflows and outflows from and to Cannae as well as revenues and expenses included in continuing operations in the three months ended March 31, 2018 which were previously eliminated in our condensed consolidated financial statements as intra-entity transactions, are not material to our results of operations.

In conjunction with the FNFV Split-Off, FNTIC, Chicago Title, and Commonwealth Title contributed an aggregate of $100 million to Cannae in exchange for 5,706,134 shares of Cannae common stock. As of March 31, 2018, we own approximately 8.1% of Cannae's outstanding common equity. In addition, we issued to Cannae a revolver note (the "Cannae Revolver") in the aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million , which accrues interest at LIBOR plus 450 basis points and matures on the five -year anniversary of the date of the Cannae Revolver. The maturity date is automatically extended for additional five -year terms unless notice of non-renewal is otherwise provided by either FNF or Cannae, in their sole discretion. As of March 31, 2018, there is no outstanding balance under the Cannae Revolver.

In connection with the FNFV Split-Off, the following material agreements were entered into by and between the Company and Cannae (the “Split-Off Agreements”):

• a Reorganization Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2017, by and between the Company and Cannae, which provides for, among other things, the principal corporate transactions required to effect the Split-Off, certain conditions to the Split-Off and provisions governing the relationship between the Company and Cannae with respect to and resulting from the Split-Off;

• a Tax Matters Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2017, by and between the Company and Cannae, which governs the Company’s and Cannae’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes and tax benefits, the filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax matters; and

• a Voting Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2017, by and between the Company and Cannae, pursuant to which the Company agrees to appear or cause all shares of Cannae common stock that the Company or its subsidiaries, as applicable, own after the Split-Off to be counted as present at any meeting of the stockholders of Cannae for the purpose of establishing a quorum, and agrees to vote all of such shares of Cannae common stock (or cause them to be voted) in

business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; continued weakness or adverse changes in the level of real estate activity, which may be caused by, among other things, high or increasing interest rates, a limited supply of mortgage funding or a weak U.S. economy; our potential inability to find suitable acquisition candidates, acquisitions in lines of business that will not necessarily be limited to our traditional areas of focus, or difficulties in integrating acquisitions; our dependence on distributions from our title insurance underwriters as our main source of cash flow; significant competition that our operating subsidiaries face; compliance with extensive government regulation of our operating subsidiaries and adverse changes in applicable laws or regulations or in their application by regulators and other risks detailed in the “Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” “Risk Factors” and other sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K (our "Annual Report") for the year ended December 31, 2017 and other filings with the SEC.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017 .

Business Trends and Conditions

Title

Our Title segment revenue is closely related to the level of real estate activity which includes sales, mortgage financing and mortgage refinancing. Declines in the level of real estate activity or the average price of real estate sales will adversely affect our title insurance revenues.

We have found that residential real estate activity is generally dependent on the following factors:


•	mortgage interest rates;


•	mortgage funding supply; and


•	strength of the United States economy, including employment levels.

As of April 24, 2018, the Mortgage Bankers Association ("MBA") estimated the size of the U.S. mortgage originations market as shown in the following table for 2017 - 2020 in its "Mortgage Finance Forecast" (in trillions):



	2020		2019		2018		2017
Purchase transactions	$	1.3	$	1.2	$	1.2	$	1.1
Refinance transactions	0.4		0.4		0.4		0.6
Total U.S. mortgage originations forecast	$	1.7	$	1.6	$	1.6	$	1.7

In 2017, total originations were reflective of a generally improving residential real estate market driven by increasing home prices and historically low mortgage interest rates. Mortgage interest rates increased slightly in 2017 from 2016, but remained low compared to historical rates. Refinance transactions decreased in 2017 from the historically high levels experienced in recent years through 2016. Existing home sales increased and there was a decline in total housing inventory. In 2018 and beyond, increasing mortgage interest rates driven by gradual increases in the target federal funds rate are expected to adversely impact mortgage originations. In a rising interest rate environment, refinance transactions are expected to continue to decline. The MBA predicts overall mortgage originations in 2018 through 2019 will decrease compared to the 2017 period due to a decrease in refinance transactions, offset by a slight increase in purchase transactions. Purchase transactions involve the issuance of both a lender’s policy and an owner’s policy, resulting in higher title premiums, whereas refinance transactions only require a lender’s policy, resulting in lower title premiums.

While projected increases in mortgage interest rates present a potential headwind for mortgage originations, other economic indicators used to measure the health of the United States economy, including the unemployment rate and consumer confidence, have improved in recent years. According to the United States Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor, the unemployment rate has dropped from 7.4% in 2013 to 4.1% in March 2018. Additionally, the Conference Board's monthly Consumer Confidence Index has remained at historically high levels through 2018. We believe that improvements in both of these economic indicators, among other indicators which support a generally strong United States economy, present potential tailwinds for mortgage originations and support recent home price trends.

We cannot be certain how, if at all, the positive effects of a change in mix of purchase to refinance transactions and of a generally strong United States economy and the negative effects of projected decreases in overall originations and increases in interest rates will impact our future results of operations. We continually monitor origination trends and believe that, based on our

Table of Contents

ability to produce industry leading operating margins through all economic cycles, we are well positioned to adjust our operations for adverse changes in real estate activity.

Because commercial real estate transactions tend to be generally driven by supply and demand for commercial space and occupancy rates in a particular area rather than by interest rate fluctuations, we believe that our commercial real estate title insurance business is less dependent on the industry cycles discussed above than our residential real estate title business. Commercial real estate transaction volume is also often linked to the availability of financing. Over the last couple of years, we have continued to experience strong demand in commercial real estate markets. In 2016 and 2017, the volume and fee-per-file of our commercial transactions were at historical highs. Through the first quarter of 2018, we have continued to see strong demand for commercial transactions.

H istorically, real estate transactions have produced seasonal revenue fluctuations in the real estate industry. The first calendar quarter is typically the weakest quarter in terms of revenue due to the generally low volume of home sales during January and February. The third calendar quarter is typically the strongest quarter in terms of revenue, primarily due to a higher volume of home sales in the summer months. The fourth quarter is typically also strong due to the desire of commercial entities to complete transactions by year-end. We have noted short-term fluctuations through recent years in resale and refinance transactions as a result of changes in interest rates.

Revenues.

Total revenues increased by $50 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 , compared to the corresponding period in 2017 .

Net earnings from continuing operations increased by $ 38 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 , compared to the corresponding period in 2017 .

The change in revenue and net earnings from our reportable segments is discussed in further detail at the segment level below.

Expenses.

Our operating expenses consist primarily of Personnel costs; Other operating expenses, which in our title business are incurred as orders are received and processed; and Agent commissions, which are incurred as title agency revenue is recognized. Title insurance premiums, escrow and title-related fees are generally recognized as income at the time the underlying transaction closes or other service is provided. Direct title operations revenue often lags approximately 45-60 days behind expenses and therefore gross margins may fluctuate. The changes in the market environment, mix of business between direct and agency operations and the contributions from our various business units have historically impacted margins and net earnings. We have implemented programs and have taken necessary actions to maintain expense levels consistent with revenue streams. However, a short-term lag exists in reducing controllable fixed costs and certain fixed costs are incurred regardless of revenue levels.

Personnel costs include base salaries, commissions, benefits, stock-based compensation and bonuses paid to employees, and are one of our most significant operating expenses.

Agent commissions represent the portion of premiums retained by our third-party agents pursuant to the terms of their respective agency contracts.

Other operating expenses consist primarily of facilities expenses, title plant maintenance, premium taxes (which insurance underwriters are required to pay on title premiums in lieu of franchise and other state taxes), appraisal fees and other cost of sales

on ServiceLink product offerings and other title-related products, postage and courier services, computer services, professional services, travel expenses, general insurance, and bad debt expense on our trade and notes receivable.

The Provision for title claim losses includes an estimate of anticipated title and title-related claims, and escrow losses.

The change in expenses attributable to our reportable segments is discussed in further detail at the segment level below.

Income tax expense was $31 million and $69 million in the three -month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Income tax expense as a percentage of earnings before income taxes was 24% and 54% for the three -month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Income tax expense as a percentage of earnings before income taxes fluctuates depending on our estimate of ultimate income tax liability and changes in the characteristics of net earnings, such as the weighting of operating income versus investment income. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”). Among other provisions, the Tax Reform Act reduced the Federal statutory corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% and limited or eliminated certain deductions. The decrease in income tax as a percentage of earnings before income taxes from the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 to the comparable 2018 period was primarily driven by the Tax Reform Act and increased tax expense in the 2017 period of $21 million resulting from a change in judgment of the tax deductibility of legal settlements finalized in the period.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates was $ 2 million and $ 1 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 . The equity in earnings in 2018 and 2017 are attributable to various individually immaterial unconsolidated affiliates.

The following table presents the percentages of open and closed title insurance orders generated by purchase and refinance transactions by our direct operations:

	100.0	%	100.0	%

_______________________________________

(1) Percentages exclude consideration of an immaterial number of non-purchase and non-refinance orders.

Title premiums from direct operations increased in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the corresponding period in 2017 . The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in the fee per file driven by a favorable change in the mix of closed orders from purchase and refinance transactions, partially offset by a decrease in closed order volume. We experienced an increase in closed title insurance order volumes from purchase transactions which was more than offset by a decrease in closed title insurance order volumes from refinance transactions in the three ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the corresponding period in 2017 . Total closed order volumes were 313,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared with 334,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2017 . This represented an overall decrease of 6%. Open title orders remained relatively flat over the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the corresponding period in 2017 .

The average fee per file in our direct operations was $2,344 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 , compared to $2,148 in the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The increase in average fee per file reflects the favorable change in mix of closed orders from purchase and refinance transactions. The fee per file tends to change as the mix of refinance and purchase transactions changes, because purchase transactions involve the issuance of both a lender’s policy and an owner’s policy, resulting in higher fees, whereas refinance transactions only require a lender’s policy, resulting in lower fees.

The decrease in title premiums from agency operations is a result of a decrease in remitted agency premiums. The decrease is consistent with the aforementioned decrease in closed order volumes from direct operations.

Escrow, title-related and other fees increased by $20 million , or 4% , in the three months ended March 31, 2018 from the corresponding period in 2017 . Escrow fees, which are more closely related to our direct operations, increased by $10 million, or 6%, in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017 . The increase is representative of the favorable increase in closed title insurance orders from purchase transactions previously discussed. Other fees in the Title segment, excluding escrow fees, increased $10 million, or 3%, in the three months ended March 31, 2018 , from the corresponding period in 2017 . This increase is primarily attributable to revenue growth associated with our home warranty businesses and increased subservicing revenue at ServiceLink, partially offset by decreases at certain other ServiceLink subsidiaries.

Interest and investment income levels are primarily a function of securities markets, interest rates and the amount of cash available for investment. Interest and investment income increased by $9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017 . The increase was primarily driven by increased interest rates earned in our tax-deferred property exchange business and dividends from other long term investments, partially offset by a decrease in our fixed maturity holdings period over period.

Personnel costs include base salaries, commissions, benefits, stock-based compensation and bonuses paid to employees, and are one of our most significant operating expenses. Personnel costs increased $31 million , or 6% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017 . The increase in the 2018 period is primarily due to higher commissions and bonuses associated with increased headcount to process increased closed order counts from purchase transactions and increased expense associated with acquisitions. Personnel costs as a percentage of total revenues from direct title premiums and escrow, title-related and other fees were 59% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 and 57% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 . The increase in personnel cost as a percentage of total revenues from direct title premiums and escrow, title-related and other fees was primarily driven by the change in mix of title premiums from purchase and refinance transactions and to increased cost of employee group insurance premiums. Average employee count in the Title segment was 23,011 and 22,569 in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively.

Table of Contents

Other operating expenses decreased by $ 5 million , or 1% in the three months ended March 31, 2018 from the corresponding period in 2017 . Other operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue excluding agency premiums, interest and investment income, and realized gains and losses decreased approximately 2% in the three months ended March 31, 2018 from the comparable period in 2017 . The decrease is primarily driven by lower title plant costs associated with lower order counts and other miscellaneous cost reductions.

Agent commissions represent the portion of premiums retained by agents pursuant to the terms of their respective agency contracts. Agent commissions and the resulting percentage of agent premiums that we retain vary according to regional differences in real estate closing practices and state regulations.

The following table illustrates the relationship of agent premiums and agent commissions, which have remained relatively consistent since 2017:



	Three months ended March 31,
	2018		%		2017		%
	(Dollars in millions)
Agent premiums	564		100	%	583		100	%
Agent commissions	431		76	%	446		77	%
Net retained agent premiums	$	133	24	%	$	137	23	%

Depreciation and amortization increased by $2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017 .

The claim loss provision for title insurance was $47 million and $52 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, and reflects an average provision rate of 4.5% and 5.0% of title premiums, respectively. We continually monitor and evaluate our loss provision level, actual claims paid, and the loss reserve position each quarter. This loss provision rate is set to provide for losses on current year policies, but due to development of prior years and our long claim duration, it periodically includes amounts of estimated adverse or positive development on prior years' policies.

Corporate and Other

The FNF Group Corporate and Other segment consists of the operations of the parent holding company, certain other unallocated corporate overhead expenses, and other smaller real estate operations.

The FNF Group Corporate and Other segment generated revenues of $103 million and $73 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The revenue in all periods represents revenue generated by our real estate brokerage and technology subsidiaries offset by the elimination of certain revenues between segments. The increase of $30 million , or 41% , in the three-month period is primarily attributable to growth in our real estate brokerage businesses of $20 million, and acquisitions and growth in our real estate technology businesses resulting in increased revenue of $9 million.

Personnel costs in our Corporate and Other segment were $28 million and $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Both periods reflect expenses at our real estate brokerage subsidiaries and other real estate related companies. The increase of $7 million , or 33% , in the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 from the corresponding 2017 period is primarily attributable to increased costs associated with the increase in revenue.

Other operating expenses in our Corporate and Other segment were $93 million and $54 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Both periods reflect expenses at our real estate brokerage subsidiaries and other real estate related companies. The increase of $39 million , or 72% , in the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 from the corresponding 2017 period is primarily attributable to increased costs associated with the increase in revenue.

Interest expense was $11 million and $16 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The decrease is primarily attributable to decreased interest on our convertible Notes resulting from redemptions subsequent to the 2017 period.

This segment generated pretax losses of $36 million and $23 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The increased losses are attributable to the factors discussed above.

Discontinued Operations

As a result of the FNFV Split-Off and BK Distribution, the results of operations of FNFV and Black Knight are included in discontinued operations. Earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax, were $21 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. Refer to Note K. Discontinued Operations to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for further information, including a breakout of the results of operations of both FNFV and Black Knight.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Requirements. Our current cash requirements include personnel costs, operating expenses, claim payments, taxes, payments of interest and principal on our debt, capital expenditures, business acquisitions, stock repurchases and dividends on our common stock. We paid dividends of $0.30 per share in the first quarter of 2018 , or approximately $82 million to our FNF Group common shareholders. On May 2, 2018 , our Board of Directors declared cash dividends of $ 0.30 per share, payable on June 29, 2018 , to FNF Group common shareholders of record as of June 15, 2018 . There are no restrictions on our retained earnings regarding our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders, although there are limits on the ability of certain subsidiaries to pay dividends to us, as described below. The declaration of any future dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors. Additional uses of cash flow are expected to include acquisitions, stock repurchases and debt repayments.

We continually assess our capital allocation strategy, including decisions relating to the amount of our dividend, reducing debt, repurchasing our stock, making acquisitions and/or conserving cash. We believe that all anticipated cash requirements for current operations will be met from internally generated funds, through cash dividends from subsidiaries, cash generated by investment securities, potential sales of non-strategic assets and borrowings on existing credit facilities. Our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements are monitored regularly to ensure that we can meet our cash requirements. We forecast the needs of all of our subsidiaries and periodically review their short-term and long-term projected sources and uses of funds, as well as the asset, liability, investment and cash flow assumptions underlying such forecasts.

Our insurance subsidiaries generate cash from premiums earned and their respective investment portfolios, and these funds are adequate to satisfy the payments of claims and other liabilities. Due to the magnitude of our investment portfolio in relation to our title claim loss reserves, we do not specifically match durations of our investments to the cash outflows required to pay claims, but do manage outflows on a shorter time frame.

Our two significant sources of internally generated funds are dividends and other payments from our subsidiaries. As a holding company, we receive cash from our subsidiaries in the form of dividends and as reimbursement for operating and other administrative expenses we incur. The reimbursements are paid within the guidelines of management agreements among us and our subsidiaries. Our insurance subsidiaries are restricted by state regulation in their ability to pay dividends and make distributions. Each applicable state of domicile regulates the extent to which our title underwriters can pay dividends or make other distributions. As of December 31, 2017 , $1,700 million of our net assets were restricted from dividend payments without prior approval from the relevant departments of insurance. We anticipate that our title insurance subsidiaries will pay or make dividends in the remainder of 2018 of approximately $273 million. Our underwritten title companies and non-insurance subsidiaries are not regulated to the same extent as our insurance subsidiaries.

The maximum dividend permitted by law is not necessarily indicative of an insurer’s actual ability to pay dividends, which may be constrained by business and regulatory considerations, such as the impact of dividends on surplus, which could affect an insurer’s ratings or competitive position, the amount of premiums that can be written and the ability to pay future dividends. Further, depending on business and regulatory conditions, we may in the future need to retain cash in our underwriters or even contribute cash to one or more of them in order to maintain their ratings or their statutory capital position. Such a requirement could be the result of investment losses, reserve charges, adverse operating conditions in the current economic environment or changes in statutory accounting requirements by regulators.

Cash flow from our operations will be used for general corporate purposes including to reinvest in core operations, repay debt, pay dividends, repurchase stock, pursue other strategic initiatives and/or conserve cash.

Operating Cash Flow . Our cash flows provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 totaled $ 18 million and $ 4 million , respectively. The increase of $ 14 million is primarily attributable to increased net earnings of $25 million, decreased payments for income taxes in the current period of $10 million, and the payment of legal settlements of $65 million in the 2017 period, offset by $64 million of cash flow from operating activities attributable to discontinued operations in the 2017 period. The remaining variance is attributable to timing of receipt and payment of receivables and payables.

Investing Cash Flows. Our cash (used in) provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $(32) million and $224 million , respectively. The decrease in cash provided by (increase in cash used in) investing activities of $256 million in the 2018 period from the 2017 period is primarily attributable to a $330 million decrease in net inflows from the sales of, and distributions from, equity and fixed income investments, net of purchases and additional investments in unconsolidated investees, partially offset by the proceeds from the sale of property and equipment of $21 million, lower cash paid for acquisitions of $27 million and decreased capital expenditures of $26 million in the 2018 period compared to the corresponding period in 2017.

Capital Expenditures. Total capital expenditures for property and equipment and capitalized software were $20 million and $46 million for the three -month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The decrease is primarily attributable to capital expenditures at Black Knight and FNFV in the 2017 period.

Table of Contents

Financing Cash Flows. Our cash flows used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $136 million and $249 million , respectively. The decrease in cash used in financing activities of $113 million from the 2018 period to the 2017 period is primarily attributable to a decrease in the change in secured trust deposits of $107 million and decreased net debt service payments, net of borrowings, of $17 million, partially offset by an increase in dividends paid of $14 million.

Financing Arrangements. For a description of our financing arrangements see Note E. Notes Payable included in Item 1 of Part 1 of this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 2 of Part I.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we repurchased $16 million of principal of our 4.25% convertible senior notes due August 2018 ("Notes") for $47 million . As of March 31, 2018 , we had outstanding Notes of $53 million , net of unamortized debt issuance costs. Upon maturity of the Notes in August 2018, we expect to settle in cash, pay approximately $163 million , and record a gain of approximately $6 million based on stock prices and conversion rates as of March 31, 2018.

Seasonality. H istorically, real estate transactions have produced seasonal revenue levels for the real estate industry including title insurers. The first calendar quarter is typically the weakest quarter in terms of revenue due to the generally low volume of home sales during January and February. The third calendar quarter has been typically the strongest in terms of revenue primarily due to a higher volume of home sales in the summer months and the fourth quarter is usually also strong due to commercial entities desiring to complete transactions by year-end. We have noted short term fluctuations through recent years in purchase and refinance transactions as a result of changes in interest rates.

Contractual Obligations. There have been no significant changes to our long-term contractual obligations since our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Capital Stock Transactions . On July 20, 2015, our Board of Directors approved a three-year stock repurchase program under which we can purchase up to 25 million shares of our FNF common stock through July 30, 2018. We may make repurchases from time to time in the open market, in block purchases or in privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions and other factors. Since the original commencement of the plan through market close on May 3, 2018 , we have repurchased a total of 10,589,000 FNF common shares for $372 million, or an average of $35.10 per share, and there are 14,411,000 shares available to be repurchased under this program. We have not made any repurchases under this program in the three months ended March 31, 2018 or in the subsequent period ended May 3, 2018 .

Equity and Preferred Security Investments. Our equity and preferred security investments may be subject to significant volatility. Should the fair value of these investments fall below our cost basis and/or the financial condition or prospects of these companies deteriorate, we may determine in a future period that this decline in fair value is other-than-temporary, requiring that an impairment loss be recognized in the period such a determination is made.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. There have been no significant changes to our off-balance sheet arrangements since our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017 .

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies described in our Annual Report for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 .

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

There have been no material changes in the market risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 .

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is: (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms; and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

See discussion of legal proceedings in Note F to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 1 of Part II.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the significant risks and uncertainties described in our Annual Report, we identified the following additional risk as a result of the pending Stewart Merger. See "Recent Developments" in Note A to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of Part 1 of this report for further discussion of the Stewart Merger.

Our pending acquisition of Stewart may expose us to certain risks.

On March 19, 2018, we signed a merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement") to acquire Stewart Information Services Corporation ("Stewart") (NYSE: STC) (the "Stewart Merger"). The closing of the Stewart Merger is subject to certain closing conditions, including Stewart stockholder approval, federal and state regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Closing of the Stewart Merger is expected in the first or second quarter of 2019. If the Stewart Merger is not completed for failure to obtain the required regulatory approvals, we are required to pay a reverse break-up fee of $50 million to Stewart. If the Stewart Merger is completed, we may face challenges in integrating Stewart. These challenges include eliminating redundant operations, facilities and systems, coordinating management and personnel, retaining key employees, managing different corporate cultures, and achieving cost reductions. There can be no assurance that we will be able to fully integrate all aspects of the acquired business successfully, and the process of integrating this acquisition may disrupt our business and divert our resources.
