Company News
Accenture trades 37% below its 52-week high after falling 27% over the past year. In fiscal Q3 2026, new bookings declined and some managed services deals slipped into fiscal 2027. The company generated $73.1 billion in revenue over the past twelve months, with operating margins widening to 17% in Q3. Managed services revenue grew 5% in local currency. In the first nine months of fiscal 2026, clients made 104 quarterly bookings exceeding $100 million, up 13% year-on-year. Consulting revenue grew just 1% in local currency in Q3. Management attributes the slowdown to the Middle East conflict affecting regional and discretionary spending. The CEO acknowledged that client budgets have not been growing, with spending simply being redirected rather than increased.
Accenture has appointed Emma Chalwin as Chief Marketing Officer, effective 1 October 2026. She will oversee global marketing and communications, reporting to Chair and CEO Julie Sweet. Chalwin joins from Workday, where she served as CMO. She previously held senior marketing roles at Salesforce, Adobe, McAfee, and Macrovision, bringing over 30 years of global marketing leadership experience. Sweet said Chalwin is a "proven growth leader" who understands how to translate breakthrough technologies into client value. Chalwin expressed excitement about helping shape Accenture's next chapter as organisations reimagine growth in the age of AI. Chalwin has been recognised on Forbes' World's Most Influential CMOs list and is a member of the Fortune Most Powerful Women network.
Accenture is shifting its growth strategy, de-emphasising LearnVantage, a learning and training business it built and promoted heavily in 2024. The company mentioned LearnVantage only once on its June 2026 earnings call, listing it amongst AI enablers rather than highlighting it as a standalone growth driver. Meanwhile, Accenture is redirecting resources toward cybersecurity, which has grown from $700 million in fiscal 2016 to $10 billion in fiscal 2025. The company is acquiring a majority stake in an operational technology security specialist, alongside two smaller firms, combining them into a platform for critical infrastructure. These assets generate $208 million in annual recurring revenue, growing at 48%. Accenture's acquisition budget for fiscal 2026 is approximately $9 billion against $73.1 billion in trailing twelve-month revenue. The company has also launched Accenture Edge, targeting mid-market companies. The stock is down 24.3% over the past year.
Central banks in Asia and Europe are tightening policy, yet cash deposits offer limited returns. This creates opportunities for dividend-focused investors seeking reliable income streams. Three stocks from the Dividend Powerhouses screener currently offer yields above 5% with covered, growing payouts. The screener identifies 1,851 companies with compelling dividend profiles. Accenture, a global consulting and technology services firm, offers a 3.48% yield backed by strong free cash flow. The company generates revenue primarily from Products clients (US$22.3 billion), Health & Public Service (US$14.9 billion), and Financial Services (US$13.8 billion). Its market capitalisation stands at approximately US$111 billion. The firm is reshaping itself for the AI era through acquisitions and partnerships with Google Cloud and ServiceNow. Key risks include whether AI and slower IT spending will reshape consulting economics faster than Accenture can adjust.
Accenture has agreed to acquire COMWARE Co., Ltd., a Tokyo-based provider of end-to-end technology services for mid-market companies.
