Persistent Systems delivered a strong Q4 FY26 with revenue of $436M (16.2% YoY) and PAT growth of 33.7% YoY to ₹5,292.6M. EBIT margin expanded 190bps QoQ to 16.3%, driven by operational efficiencies and favorable currency. BFSI vertical led with 24.4% YoY growth, reaching a $600M annualized run rate. The company reported TCV bookings of $600.8M, including a $150M+ deal with a Japanese industrial tech leader. Management reiterated confidence in reaching a $2B revenue run rate by Q4 FY27, with margin aspiration of 16-17%. AI adoption is accelerating, particularly in tech and BFSI, though enterprise-scale deployment remains slower in regulated sectors. Key risk: prolonged geopolitical tensions could impact macro demand and delay client spending decisions.
