Capgemini posts 2% sales dip, but beats estimates aided by AI demand
In This Article:
(Reuters) -French IT consulting firm Capgemini reported a 2% drop in its annual constant currency sales on Tuesday, but narrowly beat market expectations, helped by sustained demand for its cloud and AI services.
"Generative AI supported strong bookings and accounted for around 5% of bookings in Q4," CEO Aiman Ezzat said in the earnings statement.
Capgemini attributed the continued client demand to the appeal of efficiency and cost-optimization programs, which have boosted its Cloud and Data & AI services businesses.
Its full-year sales fell to 22.10 billion euros ($23.11 billion), but landed just ahead of the Visible Alpha consensus, cited by Jefferies, that had forecast sales of 22.07 billion euros.
Despite the overall decline, Capgemini noted improvements in its Financial Services and Consumer Goods & Retail businesses, along with a strong performance in the unit servicing the public sector.
The company, whose services range from cloud and AI to enterprise management across a wide array of industries, said it expected 2025 sales development to come between a 2% decline and a 2% rise in constant currency terms.
It sees an operating margin of 13.3% to 13.5% for the year.
Last year, Capgemini slowed down hiring to reduce costs. It said on Tuesday its total headcount at the end of December was 341,100, up 0.7% from a year earlier.
Its board proposed a dividend of 3.40 euros per share to be paid for 2024, unchanged from a year earlier.

Travis Kelce has grown up, says Jason Kelce
Travis Kelce is "changing" because of new people in his life. The 35-sports star has been dating singer Taylor Swift since 2023, and Jason Kelce, Travis' older brother, has been staggered by his sibling's personal evolution. Speaking about his brother's growth, Jason said on the 'Fitz and Whit' podcast: "It’s been staggering, honestly." The 37-year-old star recalled Travis having a Peter Pan-like quality during his younger years. Jason said: "One of the things I love so much about Travis is that he never grew up. He was like Peter Pan, the lost boys." Jason acknowledged that the new people in Travis' life have had a healthy influence on him in recent times. The former NFL star said: "I think that sometimes you get people in your life that maybe get that out of you. That’s a good thing." Despite this, Travis has retained a playful side to his personality. Jason explained: "Trav, he is growing up. He’s still got that youthful enthusiasm. I think he’ll kind of always have that. It’s just part of his personality." Meanwhile, Travis recently admitted to feeling inspired by Taylor during her Eras Tour. The Kansas City Chiefs star admitted to taking inspiration from Taylor, 35, and her record-breaking tour. Speaking ahead of the Super Bowl, Travis explained: "What I saw on that tour last year was pretty remarkable. "To see the week-in, week-out travelling from one country to the next and how excruciating it is on her body and on her mind - and it’s not just her. It was her entire tour. It was an absolute machine and it was something I could admire watching." Travis also revealed that he was focusing on his diet ahead of the Super Bowl. He said: "I’ve been eating clean. I haven’t been drinking as much, a little lower on the pounds this week."

People Are Blaming Cheap Shampoo For Causing Male Pattern Baldness
It’s a running joke (and arguably a pretty tired one, at this point) that men don’t know how to take care of themselves. Across the internet, you’ll find loads of videos of young women trying to teach their boyfriends the basics of skin care. Commonly, the men have never heard of moisturizer; some don’t even know to wash their faces. Personal care brands famously sell those 3-in-1 (or 4, or 5…) combo products that combine shampoo, conditioner and body wash — presumably because when you’re a man, you don’t have time to use three different products to serve three discrete purposes, I guess. Never mind that shampoo and conditioner aren’t even meant to go on the same parts of your hair.
