Moody´s Corporation (NYSE: MCO) today announced results for the
fourth quarter and full year 2007.

Summary of Results for Fourth Quarter 2007

Moody´s reported revenue of $504.9 million for the three months
ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of 14% from $590.0 million for the
same quarter of 2006. Operating income was $212.1 million and diluted
earnings per share were $0.49, which included a restructuring charge
of $47.8 million or $0.11 per share. Excluding the restructuring
charge in 2007 and the gain from a building sale in 2006, operating
income of $259.9 million declined 14% from $302.7 million in the
year-ago period. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.60 in the
quarter decreased 6% from $0.64 per share in the prior year period.

Summary of Results for Full Year 2007

Revenue for the full year 2007 totaled $2,259.0 million, an
increase of 11% from $2,037.1 million for the same period of 2006.
Operating income for the full year 2007 was $1,131.0 million and
included a restructuring charge of $50.0 million. Diluted earnings per
share of $2.58 for the full year 2007 included a $0.19 per share
benefit from the settlement of a legacy tax matter in the second
quarter of 2007 and an $0.11 per share charge related to restructuring
actions. Excluding the 2007 restructuring charge and the 2006 gain on
building sale, operating income of $1,181.0 for 2007 grew 7% from
$1,098.9 million in 2006. Excluding the adjustments listed above and
the impact of legacy tax matters in both years, full year 2007 diluted
earnings per share were $2.50, 11% higher than $2.25 in 2006.

Raymond McDaniel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Moody´s,
commented, "Moody´s confronted unprecedented challenges in 2007 as
credit problems that began in the U.S. housing sector affected
important parts of our ratings business globally. Despite these
difficult conditions, Moody´s reported solid financial performance for
2007 based on very strong performance in the first half of the year."
In speaking about 2008, Mr. McDaniel added, "The severity and
protracted nature of current credit market dislocations confirms that
the challenges of 2007 will persist well into 2008. Moody´s is
responding to these conditions by providing more extensive research
and credit evaluation tools. We are also working closely with market
participants on information transparency in order to restore
confidence and to support more orderly credit market operations as
quickly as possible."

Fourth Quarter Revenue

Revenue at Moody´s Investors Service for the fourth quarter of
2007 was $460.7 million, 16% lower than the prior year period. Foreign
currency translation positively impacted operating results, mainly due
to the weakness of the U.S. dollar relative to the euro and the
British pound, increasing revenue and operating income growth by
approximately 230 and 160 basis points, respectively.

Ratings revenue totaled $372.6 million in the quarter, a decrease
of 23% from a year ago. Growth in revenue from the global financial
institutions business was more than offset by declines across all
other global ratings businesses.

Global structured finance revenue totaled $164.9 million for the
fourth quarter of 2007, a decrease of 40% from a year earlier. U.S.
structured finance revenue decreased 53%, driven by significant
declines in issuance across most asset categories. International
structured finance revenue decreased 17%, led by declines in the
European credit derivatives and commercial mortgage-backed securities
businesses.

Global corporate finance revenue of $104.5 million in the fourth
quarter of 2007 was down slightly with the same quarter of 2006 as
growth in relationship-based fees mitigated declines in issuance-based
revenue. Revenue in the U.S. rose 2% from the prior year period,
reflecting significant growth in revenue from investment-grade bond
ratings, partially offset by double-digit revenue declines from rating
high yield bonds and leveraged bank loans. Outside the U.S., corporate
finance revenue decreased 7% due primarily to declines in revenue from
rating both investment-grade and speculative-grade securities, mainly
in Europe.

Global financial institutions and sovereigns revenue totaled $73.8
million for the fourth quarter of 2007, increasing 6% from the prior
year period. Revenue in the U.S. grew 5%, driven mainly by favorable
results in the insurance sector. Outside the U.S., revenue rose 6%
reflecting good performance in the banking sectors in both Europe and
Asia.

U.S. public finance revenue was $29.4 million for the fourth
quarter of 2007, declining 6% from the robust fourth quarter of 2006.

Moody´s global research revenue rose to $88.1 million, up 30% from
the same quarter of 2006. This growth reflected good increases in each
of Moody´s research product segments, including credit and economic
analysis subscriptions, analytical software and credit training
services.

Revenue at Moody´s KMV ("MKMV") for the fourth quarter of 2007 was
$44.2 million, 11% higher than in the fourth quarter of 2006. Results
were bolstered by strong growth in revenue from the licensing of
credit processing software and sales of risk product subscriptions.

On a geographic basis, Moody´s U.S. revenue of $277.1 million for
the fourth quarter of 2007 decreased 23% from the fourth quarter of
2006. Non-U.S. revenue of $227.8 million was essentially flat to the
prior year period and reflected approximately 530 basis points of
positive impact from currency translation. International revenue
accounted for 45% of Moody´s total revenue in the quarter compared
with 39% in the year-ago period.

Fourth Quarter Expenses

Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2007 were $292.8
million and included a restructuring charge of $47.8 million.
Excluding the restructuring charge in 2007 and the gain on a building
sale in 2006, Moody´s operating expenses were $245.0 million in the
fourth quarter, 15% lower than in the prior year period, and $29.5
million or 11% lower than operating expenses in the third quarter of
2007, primarily related to lower incentive compensation expenses.
Moody´s operating margin for the fourth quarter of 2007 was 51%, equal
to the margin for the same period in 2006, excluding the restructuring
charge in 2007 and gain on sale in 2006.

Fourth Quarter Effective Tax Rate

Moody´s effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2007 was
33.8% as compared with 39.9% for the prior year period. The reduced
tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2007 was primarily due to lower
state income taxes, including the 2007 reduction of the New York State
income tax rate and the benefit from a higher proportion of income
earned in lower tax jurisdictions.

Full Year 2007 Results

Revenue at Moody´s Investors Service totaled $2,104.2 million for
the full year 2007, an increase of 11% from the prior year period.
Currency translation had a positive impact on these results,
increasing revenue and operating income growth by approximately 210
basis points and 180 basis points, respectively. Global ratings
revenue was $1,779.9 million for the full year 2007, up 9% from
$1,639.8 million in the same period of 2006. Each of the global
ratings business lines achieved year-over-year revenue growth, led by
double-digit growth in corporate finance and financial institutions.
Research revenue rose to $324.3 million for the full year 2007, up 27%
from the full year 2006. Finally, revenue at MKMV for the full year
2007 totaled $154.8 million, 8% higher than in the prior year period.

Share Repurchases and Capital Structure

During the fourth quarter of 2007, Moody´s repurchased 7.7 million
shares at a total cost of $311.4 million and issued 0.8 million shares
of stock under stock-based compensation plans. For the full year 2007,
Moody´s repurchased 31.3 million shares at a total cost of $1.7
billion and issued 4.3 million shares under stock-based compensation
plans. Outstanding shares as of December 31, 2007 totaled 251.4
million, representing a 10% decrease from 278.6 million shares a year
earlier. Share repurchases during the year were funded using a
combination of free cash flow and borrowings. At year-end, Moody´s had
$1.2 billion of outstanding debt with an additional $400 million
available. Additionally, as of December 31, 2007, Moody´s had $2.0
billion of share repurchase authority remaining under its current
program.

Outlook for Full Year 2008

Beginning January 1, 2008, Moody´s segments were changed to
reflect the business reorganization announced in August 2007. As a
result of the reorganization, the rating agency remains in the Moody´s
Investors Service ("MIS") operating company and several ratings
business lines have been realigned. All of Moody´s other commercial
activities, including Moody´s KMV and sales of MIS research, are now
combined under a new operating company known as Moody´s Analytics.
Moody´s new initiatives in fixed income pricing and valuations will
also be captured within Moody´s Analytics. Please refer to the
reconciliation tables at the end of this press release for further
details.

Moody´s outlook for 2008 is based on assumptions about many
macroeconomic and capital market factors, including interest rates,
corporate profitability and business investment spending, merger and
acquisition activity, consumer spending, residential mortgage
borrowing and refinancing activity, securitization levels and capital
markets issuance. There is an important degree of uncertainty
surrounding these assumptions and, if actual conditions differ from
these assumptions, Moody´s results for the year may differ from our
current outlook.

For Moody´s overall, full-year 2008 revenue is expected to decline
in the low double-digit percent range. This decline assumes foreign
currency translation in 2008 at current exchange rates. We anticipate
a weak first half of 2008 with improvement in market liquidity and
issuance conditions later in the year. Under this scenario, we note
that Moody´s first half 2008 performance is likely to reflect
unusually weak market conditions, as well as challenging year-on-year
comparisons against the first half of 2007 when Moody´s delivered
record performance. Excluding the 2007 restructuring charge, we expect
the full-year 2008 operating margin to decline to the mid- to
high-forties percent range, due primarily to lower ratings revenue.
Full-year expenses are expected to be about flat to full year 2007,
excluding the restructuring charge, as the annualized impact of new
hires added in the first half of 2007 and investments we continue to
make in the growing areas of our business will be offset by savings
from our restructuring actions. Earnings per share for 2008 are
projected in a range from $2.17 to $2.25.

For the global Moody´s Investors Service business, we expect
revenue for the full year 2008 to decline in the mid-to high-teens
percent range. Within the U.S., we project Moody´s Investors Service
revenue to decrease in the mid-twenties percent range for the full
year 2008.

In the U.S. structured finance business, we expect revenue for the
year to decline in the low- to mid-forties percent range, reflecting
double-digit percent declines in most asset classes, led by
residential mortgage-backed securities and credit derivatives ratings.

In the U.S. corporate finance business, we expect revenue to
decrease in the low-teens percent range for the year driven by
declines across all asset classes.

In both the U.S. financial institutions and public, project and
infrastructure finance sectors, we project revenue in 2008 to grow in
the low single-digit percent range.

Outside the U.S. we expect Moody´s Investors Service revenue to
decrease in the low single-digit percent range. Good growth from
rating financial institutions; public, project and infrastructure
finance; and corporate securities is expected to be more than offset
by a decline in structured finance ratings revenue, primarily in
Europe.

For Moody´s Analytics, we expect revenue growth in the mid-teens
percent range. In the U.S., growth is projected to be in the low-teens
percent range while outside the U.S., revenue is expected to increase
in the high-teens percent range. Growth in the subscription businesses
is expected in the mid-teens range, reflecting continued demand for
credit and economic research, structured finance analytics, and the
impact of our newly formed pricing and valuation business. In the
consulting business, we anticipate very strong growth, reflecting a
robust pipeline of professional services engagements and credit
training projects. There is considerable demand for Moody´s expertise
in credit education, risk modeling, and scorecard development as
customers implement more sophisticated risk management processes and
comply with regulatory requirements. In the software business, we
expect revenue to be flat versus 2007, as customers begin to migrate
to new generation software platforms.

In addition to its reported results, Moody´s has included in the table
above adjusted results that the Securities and Exchange Commission
defines as "non-GAAP financial measures." Management believes that
such non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the
company´s reported results, can provide useful supplemental
information for investors analyzing period to period comparisons of
the company´s growth. The table above shows Moody´s results for the
three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2007, adjusted to
reflect the following:

(a) To exclude the restructuring charge.

(b) To exclude an earnings benefit of $31.9 million relating to the
resolution of certain legacy tax matters.

(c) To reflect the income tax impacts related to the adjustments
described in note (a) and to exclude an income tax benefit of $20.4
million for the full year of 2007 related to the resolution of
