Financial Highlights for Cognizant in Q4 '24
Cognizant reported a revenue of 5.08B, which is a 0.8% change from the previous quarter. An increase in revenue typically indicates growing demand for the company's products or services. This positive change in revenue is a good sign, suggesting that the company's sales are moving in the right direction.
Gross Profit stood at 1.79B, marking a 11.6% change since the last quarter. Gross profit showcases the efficiency in production and sales processes.
Cost of Revenue was 3.3B, a -4.3% difference from the previous quarter. A rising cost of revenue may suggest increased production or sales costs, which can impact margins. However, if accompanied by a proportionate rise in revenue, it could indicate scaling operations.
Operating Expenses for this period were 1.03B, showing a 24.1% change from the last quarter. Operating expenses cover the costs of running daily business operations. A significant increase might indicate inefficiencies or investments in growth, while a decrease could suggest cost-saving measures or potential underinvestment in key areas.
Net Income for the quarter was 546M, showing a -6.2% change from the prior quarter. Net income provides a clear picture of the company's profitability after all expenses. An increase suggests the company is becoming more profitable, while a decrease may raise concerns about the company's financial health, unless there are specific one-time costs or investments.
The company's EBITDA for the quarter was 902M, showing a 0.8% change from the previous period. EBITDA gives insight into the company's operational profitability, excluding non-operating expenses like interest and taxes. A rising EBITDA indicates strong operational performance, while a declining EBITDA may signal operational challenges or increased costs.
Cognizant faced some challenges this quarter with a decline in one or more of the key metrics: revenue, gross profit, or net income. Higher operating expenses might indicate increased investments or potential inefficiencies.
