Accenture plc appears undervalued after a 40% stock decline, now trading at just 14x free cash flow. Recent results show modest revenue growth and strong free cash flow, but margin pressure and slowing EPS growth. Accenture's long-term thesis is supported by steady acquisitions, margin improvement, share buybacks, and AI-driven opportunities despite GenAI risks.
Whether you're a value, growth, or momentum investor, finding strong stocks becomes easier with the Zacks Style Scores, a top feature of the Zacks Premium research service.
Accenture remains a Buy despite and because of a 21% correction, with current valuations offering an attractive entry point. ACN faces manageable headwinds from US government spending cuts, but core revenue, EPS, and cash generation remain robust. AI presents both opportunities and risks for ACN's consulting model, yet generative AI bookings are accelerating and offsetting near-term concerns.
