Accenture: Solid Execution, Strengthening AI Position, and Upgraded Outlook Underpin Buy Rating and $282 Target

Analyst Bryan Bergin of TD Cowen maintained a Buy rating on Accenture, boosting the price target to $282.00.

Bryan Bergin has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors tied to Accenture’s solid execution in a difficult macro environment and its improved financial outlook. The company delivered quarterly results near the high end of guidance, raised its full-year growth, EPS, and free cash flow targets, and demonstrated disciplined operational and working-capital management, all of which support confidence in its fundamentals.

He also highlights Accenture’s strengthening position in AI and digital transformation, with robust large-deal bookings, expanding advanced AI client activity, and a growing data and AI talent base. While he acknowledges that broader sentiment may stay cautious until clearer, quantitative AI-driven growth emerges, he views Accenture as effectively “controlling the controllables” and well placed to benefit when demand and sector valuations normalize, underpinning his Buy recommendation and $282 price target.

Bergin covers the Technology sector, focusing on stocks such as Epam Systems, Accenture, and Cognizant. According to TipRanks, Bergin has an average return of -3.6% and a 39.42% success rate on recommended stocks.
