Cognizant forecasts weak quarterly revenue amid cautious client spending

Cognizant Technology has revised its third-quarter revenue projections, now falling short of Wall Street’s expectations. The cautious stance of clients regarding discretionary IT expenditures and significant investments is evident. With AI adoption gaining momentum, enterprises are focusing more on data center infrastructures than software. The company anticipates its annual revenue will land between $22.04 billion and $22.35 billion, after reporting second-quarter earnings of $5.48 billion, aligning with forecasts.
