Accenture revised its FY24 revenue forecast to 1% to 3% growth, down from the previous 2% to 5%, citing reduced client spending on consulting services amidst economic uncertainty. Despite reporting Q2 FY24 revenues at $15.80 billion, slightly exceeding the midpoint of its guided range, the company’s GAAP operating income rose to $2.05 billion, with an operating margin of 13.0%. Julie Sweet, Accenture’s chair and CEO, highlighted the company’s role as a trusted partner for client reinvention, with record quarterly bookings from 39 clients surpassing $100 million each. Accenture also prioritizes investment, deploying $2.9 billion in strategic acquisitions in the first half of the year to expand growth opportunities.
