July 30 (Reuters) – IT consulting company Cognizant Technology (CTSH.O) forecast third-quarter revenue above Wall Street expectations on Wednesday, owing to strong spending from customers looking to integrate artificial intelligence into their platforms.
Cognizant’s services have seen strong uptake from enterprises looking to automate processes and shift workloads to the cloud as they adopt AI in the hopes of boosting productivity and optimizing costs.
“Our investments in talent, platforms and AI infrastructure drove our fourth-straight quarter of organic year-over-year revenue growth,” said Cognizant CEO Ravi Kumar S.
The company forecast third-quarter revenue between $5.27 billion and $5.35 billion, compared with analysts’ expectations of $5.27 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.
It reported revenue of $5.25 billion in the second quarter, beating estimates of $5.19 billion.
