Mar 19, 2026	mda_quarterly	Accenture reported solid second-quarter fiscal 2026 results, with revenues reaching $18.0 billion, an 8% increase in U.S. dollars and 4% in local currency. New bookings totaled $22.1 billion, up 1% in local currency, with consulting bookings growing while managed services bookings experienced a slight local currency decline. Operating margin improved to 13.8% from 13.5%, and diluted earnings per share rose 4% to $2.93. Revenue growth was particularly strong in Asia Pacific and in the Communications, Media & Technology and Financial Services industry groups. Managed Services revenue growth outpaced Consulting, though both saw increases. Clients continue to prioritize large-scale transformations, including AI-readiness, despite a slower pace of spending on smaller, shorter-duration consulting contracts. Gross margin expanded due to lower non-payroll costs, particularly subcontractor expenses. The company incurred $308 million in business optimization costs, primarily for employee severance, which impacted operating margin and EPS for the six-month period. Operating cash flow increased significantly due to improved collections, while cash used in investing activities rose due to higher business acquisitions. Accenture returned $2.7 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, and plans continued significant share repurchases. Foreign currency fluctuations favorably impacted U.S. dollar reported revenues. The workforce decreased to 786,000, with utilization improving to 93%.
Dec 18, 2025	mda_quarterly	Accenture reported first-quarter fiscal 2026 revenues of $18.7 billion, up 5% in local currency, driven by strong demand for its Reinvention Services, digital core, and AI solutions. Growth was particularly robust in Financial Services and Communications, Media & Technology, and across Asia Pacific. New bookings surged 10% in local currency to $20.9 billion. Adjusted operating margin reached 17.0% and adjusted diluted EPS increased 10% to $3.94, after excluding $308 million in business optimization costs, primarily employee severance. GAAP operating margin, however, declined to 15.3% and GAAP EPS decreased 1% due to these costs and a higher effective tax rate. Despite ongoing economic and geopolitical uncertainty, clients are prioritizing large-scale transformations and AI readiness. Managed Services revenue growth was strong, while Consulting saw modest growth, reflecting a slower pace of client spending on smaller, shorter-duration contracts. Workforce utilization improved to 93%, though voluntary attrition rose to 13%, necessitating proactive workforce management. Operating cash flow increased by $642 million, and the company returned $3.3 billion to shareholders, including $2.3 billion in share repurchases, with plans for continued significant repurchases. Foreign currency translation favorably impacted USD revenue growth by 1.4%.
