William Blair analyst Maggie Nolan upgraded Cognizant (CTSH) to Outperform from Market Perform without a price target after hosting meetings with management. The firm says Cognizant’s leading indicators, such as bookings, deal pipeline, and the growth of its financial services and health sciences verticals, indicate “healthier, sustainable” growth for the next 12-18 months. Cognizant has momentum after five consecutive quarters of positive organic constant-currency growth, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Blair believes Cognizant is entering a “new phase of growth and profitability,” driven by an accelerated artificial intelligence-focused strategy.
