Infosys

Infosys is an Indian IT services and consulting company based in Bengaluru. It builds, runs and modernizes software and IT systems for large companies, mostly in North America and Europe, in sectors such as financial services, retail, communications, energy, manufacturing and life sciences. Most of its engineers work in India, and it also has offices and delivery centers in the United States, Europe and other regions.

It sells AI services under the Infosys Topaz name and cloud services under the Infosys Cobalt name, and it owns Finacle, a banking software product. Revenue was $20,158 million in fiscal 2026, which ended on March 31, 2026, and $5,082 million in Q1 fiscal 2027. Its American depositary shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange, and each represents one share.

The market prices Infosys for slow growth and for the fear that AI tools will lower the amount of IT services work that clients buy. Revenue grew 2.4% in constant currency in Q1 fiscal 2027, and in July 2026 Infosys cut the top of its fiscal 2027 revenue growth guidance to 1.5% to 3.0%, from 1.5% to 3.5%. Investors fear that AI can do part of the coding, testing and support work that Indian IT firms sell. US immigration rules add risk: on October 9, 2026, the US Department of Labor suspended new and pending permanent labor certification applications for some companies, including Infosys.

Infosys said that it does not expect a material impact. Its results are steady: the operating margin was 21.1%, large deal wins were $3.6 billion, and AI work was 8.2% of revenue in Q1 fiscal 2027. For the gap to close, three things must be true. Revenue growth must stay within the 1.5% to 3.0% guidance and then rise, as large deals turn into revenue.

The operating margin must stay within the 20% to 22% guidance. The labor certification suspension and other US immigration actions must not limit how Infosys staffs its US projects. The Q2 fiscal 2027 report, expected on October 23, 2026, and the fiscal 2028 guidance in April 2027 are the main tests. If they pass, the gap can close over the next four to six quarters.

The main reason it may not close is a lasting fall in demand for traditional IT services because of AI.
