Teleperformance (FR0000051807) was trading at EUR 71.77 at Lang & Schwarz on October 13, 2026 at 10:49 a.m. CEST, plus 1.40 percent versus the Xetra close of October 12, 2026 at EUR 70.78. Teleperformance had named Benoit Gabelle chief financial officer on September 24, 2026, according to Business Wire. The appointment gives the transformation program a finance lead while the group works through weaker revenue growth.

Three milestones shape the stock

On July 30, 2026, Teleperformance reported first-half revenue of EUR 4.88 billion, down 4.60 percent, and net income of EUR 216.0 million, according to Yahoo Finance. On September 14, 2026, S&P Global Ratings forecast 0.00 percent organic revenue growth for 2026 and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.20 percent. On September 24, 2026, Gabelle became permanent CFO after serving as interim CFO since March 2026, Business Wire reported.

What does the H1 decline mean for margins

The revenue decline was not matched by a collapse in profitability. Teleperformance's first-half adjusted EBITDA margin stayed at the prior-year level, while recurring EBITA reached 13.60 percent, according to the July 30 earnings-call transcript.

The cost of the reset is visible in cash and operating profit. Management said restructuring costs affected first-half operating profit by EUR 100.0 million, while the efficiency plan was expected to generate EUR 150.0 million to EUR 170.0 million in annual savings. That trade-off explains why the margin defense matters more than the headline revenue decline.

Next date is November 5

Teleperformance's investor-relations page schedules third-quarter 2026 revenue for November 5, 2026, at 5:45 p.m. CET. The release will test whether the sequential improvement described for the second quarter can extend into the second half and whether the savings program is offsetting pressure from automation and content-moderation services.

For the market, the key comparison is straightforward: the stock is EUR 0.99 above the October 12 Xetra close, while the latest reported first-half revenue is EUR 4.88 billion. The share price remains below the 52-week high of EUR 78.14 and above the 52-week low of EUR 43.65, both as of October 13, 2026.
