Accenture plc (IE00B4BNMY34) was trading at EUR 192.33 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026, at 10:43 a.m. CEST. At its October 14, 2026 Investor and Analyst Day, the company outlined mid-single-digit local-currency revenue growth ambitions for fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2028, followed by mid- to high-single-digit growth in fiscal 2029, as Yahoo Finance reported.

Growth targets move beyond fiscal 2026

The plan sets a longer runway for the AI strategy. Accenture also targeted annual operating-margin expansion of 10 to 30 basis points from fiscal 2027 through fiscal 2029, starting from an adjusted operating margin of 15.8 percent in fiscal 2026, according to TradingView.

The starting point was a stronger fiscal year. Accenture reported fiscal 2026 revenue of USD 74.18 billion, up 6.47 percent from USD 69.67 billion in fiscal 2025, while diluted earnings per share rose from USD 12.15 to USD 13.56. The standardized annual figures identify August 31, 2026, as the fiscal year-end.

What must the margin deliver?

Accenture's operating ambition is paired with substantial cash generation. Fiscal 2026 operating profit was USD 11.41 billion, net income attributable to common shareholders was USD 8.37 billion, and operating cash flow reached USD 12.36 billion.

Three dates frame the strategy

On September 15, 2026, Accenture scheduled its fiscal fourth-quarter and full-year results call for October 1, 2026, according to Accenture. On October 1, 2026, quarterly revenue reached USD 18.68 billion, above the guided range of USD 17.75 billion to USD 18.40 billion, as Business Wire reported. On October 14, 2026, Accenture presented its fiscal 2027 to fiscal 2029 growth and margin ambitions.

Next reporting date

Accenture is scheduled to report its fiscal first-quarter 2027 results on December 17, 2026, before the US market opens, according to Simply Wall St.

Stock price and execution test

For investors, the central test is whether AI productivity can support both the promised growth and the margin expansion. Accenture's fiscal 2026 revenue growth of 6.47 percent provides a measurable base, while the new plan extends the target horizon to fiscal 2029.

The stock was trading at EUR 192.33 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026, at 10:43 a.m. CEST. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Accenture stock.
