Conduent Financial Statement Overview

Summary

Conduent faces financial challenges with declining revenue and negative cash flows. Despite improved leverage, substantial debt and operational inefficiencies persist. Strategic initiatives are needed to enhance revenue and cash flow.

Income Statement

Conduent has faced declining revenue over the past years, with a notable drop from $4.163 billion in 2020 to $3.186 billion TTM. The gross profit margin has decreased significantly, indicating cost pressures. TTM net profit margin stands at 8.66%, recovering from previous losses. However, negative EBIT reflects operational challenges. The company needs to address declining revenue and improve operational efficiency.

Balance Sheet

The debt-to-equity ratio has improved over time, from 1.44 in 2020 to 1.05 in TTM, suggesting better leverage management. However, total debt remains significant, and equity has decreased. The equity ratio of 31.60% TTM shows moderate financial stability. Conduent must manage its liabilities carefully to improve financial health.

Cash Flow

Conduent's cash flow situation is challenging, with negative operating and free cash flows in TTM. The free cash flow growth rate is concerning, and the company relies on financing activities to support cash requirements. Improving cash generation from operations is crucial to avoid liquidity risks.
