Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On February 18, 2010, Stewart Information Services Corporation issued a press release regarding financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2009. Upon subsequent review, it was determined that certain information concerning cash flows from operations was incorrect, and the press release has been corrected. The corrections are summarized below.

On the Statement of Operations accompanying the press release, cash provided (used) by operations for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was corrected, changing from $29,253 and $18,538, respectively, to ($6,237) and ($16,952). In addition, references to cash flow from operations in the text of the press release were revised to reflect these corrections. Although not discussed specifically in the press release, total cash flow for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2009 is unaffected by this correction; the error in the previous disclosure was in the classification of certain cash receipts as operating activities rather than investing activities. On the Statement of Operations accompanying the press release, other comprehensive earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2009 was corrected, changing from $8,783 to other comprehensive loss of ($8,783).

The full text of the corrected press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

99.1		Corrected Press Release of Stewart Information Services Corporation dated February 18, 2010, reporting financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2009.
