2-Min Summary
Infosys delivered a strong Q2 FY26 with constant currency revenue growth of 2.9% YoY and sequential operating margin expansion of 20 bps to 21%. Large deal TCV was robust at $3.1 billion with 67% net new, and a subsequent $1.6 billion mega deal was announced. Growth was driven by financial services and manufacturing, while AI-related projects (2,500+ generative AI, 200+ agentic) are scaling. Management raised FY26 revenue guidance to 2-3% CC, maintaining margin guidance of 20-22%. Key risk: persistent macro uncertainty and tariff-related headwinds could elongate decision cycles and pressure discretionary spending.
