The French IT consulting firm Capgemini raised its 2026 revenue growth guidance for the second time this year after reporting a 12 percent increase in third-quarter revenue. The company now targets growth between 9.0 percent and 9.5 percent at constant exchange rates, an increase from its previous target of 8.5 percent to 9.0 percent.
Third-quarter revenue reached €6.07 billion, while bookings rose 3.4 percent to €5.40 billion. Growth was most pronounced in Britain and Ireland, which saw a 25.2 percent increase, and North America, which grew by 18.3 percent. France recorded a growth rate of 4.9 percent.
CEO Aiman Ezzat attributed the strong performance to high demand from clients overhauling their data systems to prepare for artificial intelligence. Looking ahead, the company has set a growth target of 3 percent to 4 percent for the fourth quarter.
