Wednesday after the professional services company exceeded fourth quarter expectations and provided an optimistic outlook for 2026, driven by strong bookings and AI investments. The stock's plunge in yesterday's session was due to Anthropic's recent release of new plug-ins, which impacted IT Services/BPO stocks. Today, the company reported fourth quarter adjusted earnings per share of $1.35, surpassing analyst estimates of $1.32, while revenue reached $5.3 billion, slightly below the consensus estimate of $5.31 billion but representing a 4.9% increase YoY or 3.8% in constant currency. Fourth quarter bookings grew 9% YoY, including twelve large deals, with two being mega deals valued at over $500 million each. "I am deeply grateful to our over 350,000 employees who helped make 2025 a defining year for Cognizant in which we put our AI builder strategy in motion and returned to the 'winner's circle' two years ahead of the target we set at our Investor Day," said CEO Ravi Kumar.
