What believers are saying

  • August 4, 2026 Q2 revenue reached $1.67 billion and adjusted EPS hit $4.37.
  • Gartner lifted 2026 guidance to at least $6.375 billion revenue and $14 adjusted EPS.
  • Management said contract value growth should accelerate through 2026 and into 2027.

What critics are saying

  • March 2026 securities-fraud class action attacks Gartner’s growth credibility and can drag through 2027.
  • Cheaper AI research tools threaten subscription renewal rates and compress analyst-driven premium pricing.
  • If contract value stalls again, buybacks cannot offset multiple compression and investor trust erosion.

What makes Gartner unique

  • Gartner’s Magic Quadrant still shapes vendor buying decisions across enterprise IT, including July 2026 AI platforms.
  • Insights revenue remains nearly 100% subscription-based, giving Gartner recurring cash flow and pricing power.
  • Gartner combines research, consulting, and 55 destination conferences, creating a broad enterprise decisioning moat.

Gartner raises 2026 IT spending forecast to $6.37T on AI demand

Gartner has raised its 2026 global IT spending forecast to $6.37 trillion, up from an April projection of $6.31 trillion, citing surging artificial intelligence investments. The revised figure represents a 14.2% increase from 2025 levels. The research firm attributes the growth to continued AI infrastructure expansion, particularly in data centre systems and AI-optimised servers. "AI infrastructure growth remains rapid despite concerns about an AI bubble," said Gartner's John-David Lovelock. The forecast comes amid mounting pressure on companies to demonstrate AI returns. Nearly 90% of finance leaders face demands to tie AI spending to business outcomes within a year, though only 22% have achieved this, according to Cloudzero research. Investor concerns persist, with nine in 10 expressing worries about AI investments and 28% fearing inflated expectations.

(Nasdaq: RMNI), the Software Support and Agentic AI ERP Company(TM) and the leading third-party support provider for Oracle, SAP and VMware software, today announced VIVERE Group, a leading Indonesian one-stop solution provider for interior contracting, furniture manufacturing and furnishing, has selected Rimini Support(TM) for SAP to help maintain business continuity, strengthen support for its critical SAP ECC environment and free internal IT resources to focus on digital transformation initiatives. Strengthening SAP support while advancing transformation Founded in 1984 and listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange since 2002, PT Gema Graham Sarana Tbk (IDX: GEMA) has grown into the core company of VIVERE Group, running SAP ECC 6 on IBM Db2 as a critical platform supporting operations across project-based work, manufacturing and distribution. Faced with the end of support for its ECC system and a push to migrate to S/4HANA, VIVERE sought the advice of Gartner on roadmap options. Based on the conversations and peer recommendations, VIVERE determined that its investments would be best allocated to innovation rather than a costly, time-consuming upgrade to S/4HANA. "Our core philosophy is to keep people, quality and business continuity at the center of our technology decisions," said Sutrisno Yao, Head of IT at VIVERE Group. "Technology should be a practical enabler that supports reliable operations, improves processes and strengthens the business without creating unnecessary disruption." VIVERE selected Rimini Street as its strategic partner, benefitting from immediate cost savings, expert SAP support and the ability to modernize on top of its existing systems. "Rimini Street gives us confidence that our SAP environment is well supported, while giving our internal team more room to focus on improvements that help the business move forward," said Yao. Unlocking capacity for process improvement and future growth As the company continues to grow and modernize, its IT team is focused on strengthening integration, improving process consistency and supporting broader digital transformation across the business. "Our initial goal was clear: protect business continuity, strengthen SAP support and free up our internal team to focus on higher-value priorities," Yao noted. "Rimini Street helps my team spend less time firefighting SAP and more time supporting process improvements and higher-value business needs." "In today's highly competitive, volatile market, lowering the cost to operate and freeing up capital and talent is no longer a choice," said Nancy Lyskawa, EVP and Chief Client Officer, Rimini Street. "Forward-thinking companies such as VIVERE Group are choosing Rimini Street to not only create capacity for innovation, but to deliver it."

Gartner buys back $3.8B of its own stock as shares fall 66% amid growth slowdown

Gartner's stock has plunged 66% over the past year despite the company's aggressive share buyback programme. The research and advisory firm has repurchased $3.8 billion of its own stock over three years, representing 40% of its current market capitalisation. In the most recent quarter alone, Gartner bought back $535 million worth of shares, reducing its share count by over 4%. The buybacks are supported by healthy financials, with net debt to equity of 0.17 and operating cash flow at 185% of net income. The market's concerns centre on slowing growth. Contract value rose just 1% year-over-year last quarter, whilst consulting revenue fell to $119 million from $140 million. Management attributed the slowdown to clients delaying decisions in March due to geopolitical uncertainty.
