Actionable Insight ▼ Bearish

Monitor H2 revenue trajectory and cost-savings execution; the maintained FY guidance implies modest sequential improvement. Divestiture proceeds of $234M should strengthen the balance sheet, but the core business continues to shrink. Next quarter's results will be critical to assess whether the transformation is gaining traction.

Executive Summary

Conduent reported Q2 2026 revenue of $531M, down 11.9% YoY, with adjusted EBITDA margin compressing to 3.0% from 3.8%. Adjusted EPS of -$0.18 slightly beat consensus of -$0.19, but GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations worsened to -$0.46 from -$0.27. The company announced $234M in expected divestiture proceeds and maintained FY 2026 guidance, but the operating deterioration—especially the loss of its largest Commercial segment customer—dominates the near-term narrative.
