Conduent (CNDT) reported its fiscal 2025 Q1 earnings on May 07th, 2025. The total revenue for the quarter fell short of expectations, dropping 18.5% to $751 million from $921 million in the previous year. The company missed analyst consensus estimates for revenue by reporting $751 million instead of $778.33 million. Despite this, Conduent's adjusted earnings per share loss of $0.13 was better than the anticipated loss of $0.15. Looking ahead, Conduent maintained its FY2025 guidance, projecting sales between $3.1 billion and $3.25 billion, aligning closely with the previous year's figures and analyst expectations. The company aims to navigate macroeconomic challenges while focusing on strategic investments and operational improvements.
