Executive Summary

Accenture plc reported QQ4 2025 revenue of USD 17.60 billion, marking a 7.3% year-over-year increase but a 0.7% quarter-over-quarter dip. Net income of USD 1.41 billion and diluted earnings per share of USD 2.25 underscore ongoing profitability despite a softer sequential rhythm. Operating income of USD 2.05 billion produced an operating margin of 11.65%, reflecting continued investment in higher-value capabilities and a cost structure designed to support strategic growth initiatives. The company generated robust operating cash flow of USD 3.91 billion and free cash flow of USD 3.81 billion, supporting a solid net cash position (net debt of USD -3.30 billion) and meaningful cash returns framework evidenced by USD 0.92 billion of dividends paid in the period. Over the trailing four quarters, revenue remains elevated versus prior year levels, while profitability has fluctuated with mix shifts and operating discipline. Absent an explicit forward guidance in the presented data, the quarter signals resilient demand for Accenture’s cloud, digital transformation, and AI-enabled services, with near-term margins tempered by ongoing investments in delivery capability and talent. Investors should monitor trajectory of mix shift toward higher-margin advisory work, utilization and productivity gains, and any backlog progression that could signal further revenue resilience.
