The outperformance was anchored by broad-based momentum across all geographic markets and industry groups, with Financial Services emerging as the standout segment, growing 13% in local currency to $3.28 billion, while operating margin expanded 80 basis points to 16.8% as SG&A costs fell sharply as a share of revenue. Generative AI bookings contributed $1.50 billion to the quarter's $19.70 billion in total new bookings, though that bookings figure declined 6% year over year, a trend that rattled investors and sent shares down more than 8% despite the headline strength. Looking ahead, Accenture narrowed its full-year local-currency revenue growth outlook to 6% to 7% and raised its free cash flow guidance to $9.00 billion to $9.70 billion, with full-year diluted EPS expected in the range of $12.77 to $12.89.
Key Takeaways
- • Broad-based revenue growth across all geographic markets and industry groups
- • 30 clients with quarterly bookings greater than $100 million
- • Generative AI new bookings of $1.5 billion
- • Operating margin expansion of 80 basis points driven by SG&A leverage
- • Lower effective tax rate of 24.0% vs 25.4% year-over-year
- • Financial Services industry group grew 13% in U.S. dollars and local currency
- • Managed Services grew 9% in local currency, outpacing Consulting at 6%
