Why is GENPACT LIMITED (G) stock moving?
Genpact reported Q3 2026 adjusted EPS of $1.07 against a $1.04 estimate and sales of $1.385B against $1.376B, a modest beat on both lines. Full-year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance of more than $4.13 sits slightly above the $4.12 consensus, while revenue guidance of more than $5.436B is essentially in line with the $5.437B estimate. A Benzinga headline cites a Q4 sales outlook of $1.226B against a $1.421B estimate, which would be a sharp shortfall, but it does not reconcile with the full-year figures and should be verified before weighting it heavily. The stock has responded positively: it closed at $43.07 on Nov 10, up from $38.84 on Oct 28 (about 11%), and set the highest intraday high in the 14-session window at $43.22. The Nov 6 session showed the largest volume in the window at 3.93M shares, roughly 1.8 times the typical level, on a 2.8% gain. Analysts followed with price target increases: Needham (Buy, $55), Citigroup (Neutral, $44) and Susquehanna (Neutral, $42). The Citigroup target is roughly at the current price, so much of the near-term upside is already reflected. The Generali, Intesa Sanpaolo and Monte dei Paschi items refer to a different company and were excluded. The main open question is whether the Q4 outlook headline is accurate.
