Accenture has announced strong financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2025, ended August 31, 2025. The technology consultancy exceeded its expectations, thanks in part to early and strategic investments in artificial intelligence (AI).
Total annual revenue in fiscal 2025 rose 7% to $69.7 billion in both US dollars and local currencies. Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) grew 8% to $12.93 billion.
AI and Managed Services As Driving Force
The findings underscore Accenture’s focus on helping clients “reinvent” themselves in the AI era.
Generative AI bookings reached $5.9 billion for the full year, with $1.8 billion coming in the fourth quarter. Total new bookings totaled $80.6 billion for the year.
Free cash flow surged to $10.9 billion for the year.
“I am very pleased with our 7% growth in fiscal 2025, demonstrating our unique ability to deliver for our clients as they seek our help to reinvent and lead with AI,” said Accenture Chair and CEO Julie Sweet.
Accenture also announced that it expects to record an additional $250 million in charges in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 for a total of approximately $865 million over the six-month period. The company expects to increase its overall number of employees in FY26 across its markets, including in the
US and countries in Europe.
For fiscal year 2026, Accenture expects revenue growth of 2% to 5% in local currencies. The company expects to return at least $9.3 billion in cash to shareholders in fiscal year 2026.
