DXC Q1 Revenue Slightly Beats, But EPS Misses by a Penny and Falls 41% YoY
DXC sits 38% above its 52-week low of $7.9.
Summary
DXC Technology reported Q1 FY27 revenue of $3B, a slight beat against the $2.99B consensus, but adjusted EPS of $0.40 missed the $0.41 estimate and plunged 41% year-over-year. The bottom-line miss was driven by steep profit declines in the core GIS segment, where profit fell 61%, and weakness in Consulting and Engineering Services. The company raised its full-year free cash flow guidance to ~$685M from ~$600M, but this was entirely due to $214M in litigation proceeds, not operational improvement. Full-year revenue guidance of $12.10B-$12.35B was maintained, implying continued organic declines. The stock, trading at just 4x forward earnings, faces a negative analyst consensus with a median price target of $10, about 15% below the pre-release close. The results underscore persistent revenue erosion and margin pressure, with the cash flow boost masking underlying weakness.
At the time of this announcement, DXC was trading at $10.91 on NYSE in the Technology sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $1.8B. The 52-week trading range was $7.90 to $15.68.
