Cognizant's third-quarter revenue grew 5% in constant currency, at the midpoint of its guidance. Adjusted operating margin improved by 30 basis points to 16.3%, reaching a four-year high. Management cut full-year growth guidance by 110 basis points at the top end, leading to a 6% selloff on Oct. 29.
Cognizant’s AI readiness and operational rigor should help the company drive continuous, steady margin expansion.
Continued geopolitical uncertainty and economic volatility can influence enterprise IT spending and weigh on Cognizant’s performance.
