DFIN's Now Filing via EDGAR Next: Simplifying Enrollment Ahead of SEC's September 12 Deadline

DFIN is filing now using EDGAR Next security protocols, offering easy self-service enrollment and full-service administration to ensure uninterrupted filing access.

NEW YORK, Aug. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- DFIN (NYSE: DFIN), the number one SEC filing agent for corporations and investment companies and a leading provider of software and tech-enabled solutions for financial reporting, investment market and capital markets transactions, is fully prepared for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) EDGAR Next platform, announcing successful filings on the new platform. DFIN is helping filers meet the September 12, 2025 enrollment deadline with flexible options, including a secure self-service portal and a full-service administration option for organizations that prefer DFIN to oversee enrollment, delegation, and post-enrollment management on their behalf. DFIN has completed its own transition to the new protocol and is currently submitting all new filings through EDGAR Next for clients that are enrolled.

"DFIN is now offering the option for early adopters to file on EDGAR Next, giving our clients confidence that their submissions will be handled seamlessly during and after the transition," said Floyd Strimling, Chief Product Officer at DFIN. "EDGAR Next is one of the most significant changes to SEC filing infrastructure in years. Our goal is to make this transition as straightforward as possible for filers so they can maintain workflow continuity and confidence during and after the transition, whether they enroll themselves through our portal or have DFIN manage the process end-to-end."

EDGAR Next, which was introduced earlier this year, is a major update to the SEC's legacy filing system, modernizing how SEC filings are submitted. The platform introduces new requirements for account access, authentication, and authorization to enhance security, transparency, and accountability.

All SEC filers—including public companies, investment companies, and beneficial owners—must enroll by September 12, 2025 to continue filing without interruption. After December 19, 2025, any filer who has not enrolled will need to submit a Form ID and await SEC staff review before regaining access, a process that may delay time-sensitive filings.

DFIN's EDGAR Next Enrollment Options Support a Seamless Transition
To help filers, DFIN launched its secure, easy-to-use EDGAR Next Enrollment Portal in March 2025. The portal enables filers to complete the new enrollment process and delegate filing authority to DFIN with confidence. Capabilities include:

• Step-by-step guidance to simplify enrollment and post-enrollment requirements
• Effortless transition to new rules without disrupting existing workflows
• Workflow continuity so clients can continue filing through DFIN without interruption

For organizations that prefer a hands-off approach, DFIN will administer enrollment and delegation on their behalf through its Full-Service Administration offering.
