Action:Reiterated
Date:07/31/26
The score is held back mainly by weak financial performance (material revenue contraction, ongoing net losses, and balance-sheet risk despite improved equity), with only partial offset from recent cash generation. Technicals are mixed (weak short-term trend but better vs. longer-term averages). The latest earnings call was moderately supportive due to strong bookings/backlog and reaffirmed margin targets, but guidance still points to declining revenue, GAAP volatility, and a negative full-year free cash flow base case, limiting upside.
Positive Factors
Strong bookings and backlog
A 57% YoY surge in new business TCV and a $2.8B backlog provide durable multi-quarter revenue visibility and conversion optionality. High backlog supports predictable service demand, improves planning for delivery capacity, and underpins cross-sell of higher‑margin modernization and AI services over the next several quarters.
Negative Factors
Sharp revenue contraction and net losses
A pronounced TTM revenue decline and persistent net losses reduce scale economics and can erode pricing power and investment capacity. Sustained top‑line weakness increases dependence on backlog conversion, raises fixed‑cost absorption risk, and could pressure margins and cash flow if bookings growth falters.

Unisys Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Jul 29, 2026
(Q2-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Nov 09, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call presented a constructive operational picture—strong new business signings (TCV +57% YoY), TS&S revenue growth and segment margin gains (TS&S +170 bps, CA&I +420 bps), backlog of $2.8 billion, and concrete AI and data-center positioning—while acknowledging near-term financial and accounting pressures (a $47.2M goodwill impairment, GAAP net loss, negative quarterly cash flow, ClearPath renewal timing and an expected ~$200M nonoperating pension-related charge in Q3). Management reiterated full-year targets and emphasized durable pipeline, margin improvement plans and pension liability reduction. Overall the tenor was optimistic about durable demand and margin recovery but transparent about short-term GAAP volatility and cash impacts.Positive Updates

Company Guidance
Unisys reaffirmed its 2026 guidance, calling for full‑year revenue to decline 5.0%–3.5% (reported −2.6% to −1.1% at June 30 FX), with TS&S revenue down 6%–4% in constant currency and ClearPath revenue pegged at $425 million (up from $415M; ~ $400M average expected for 2027–28). The company reiterated full‑year non‑GAAP operating profit margin of 9%–11%, expects targeted TS&S gross margin improvement of 100–200 bps and a slight year‑over‑year increase in ClearPath gross margin, and plans $10M–$20M of operating expense savings. For Q3 it expects roughly $450M of revenue (~$370M TS&S, ~$80M ClearPath) and about a 4% non‑GAAP operating margin (implying ClearPath will exceed ~$200M in Q4 to reach $425M for the year), and it anticipates approximately $200M of non‑operating GAAP items in Q3 related to a likely annuity purchase that would remove ~ $200M of U.S. pension liabilities. The base‑case free cash flow outlook remains ~ −$25M for the year (≈ $75M pre‑pension/post‑retirement), based on assumptions of ~ $85M CapEx, ~$70M cash taxes, ~$70M net interest, ~$30M environmental/legal/restructuring, and ~$100M of pension/post‑retirement contributions (≈ $25M in Q3; ~$40M expected in H2); liquidity includes $324M cash at June 30, an undrawn $125M ABL, no material debt maturities before 2031, a year‑end pension deficit of ~ $450M (improved ~ $30M YTD) and net leverage including the year‑end pension deficit of ~3.1x.Unisys Financial Statement Overview
