International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are a set of common accounting rules used by many companies worldwide to prepare financial statements, so numbers like revenue, profit and assets are measured in the same way across borders. For investors, IFRS matters because it makes it easier to compare the financial health and performance of different companies—like using the same ruler to measure different objects—reducing surprises and helping informed investment decisions.
iasbregulatory
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) is the independent body that creates and updates the global rulebook for how companies prepare financial statements, known as International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Think of it as the rule-maker that helps ensure company reports are prepared consistently so investors can fairly compare performance, spot risks, and make informed decisions based on trustworthy numbers.
adjusted ebitdafinancial
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
adjusted profitfinancial
Adjusted profit is a company’s reported earnings after removing unusual, one‑time or non‑cash items so the number reflects the business’s regular operating performance; think of it as cleaning out the closet so you can see what’s used every day. Investors use it to compare results across periods and companies without temporary spikes or hits distorting the view, but adjustments vary by company so check the reconciliation to understand what was removed.
diluted earnings per sharefinancial
Diluted earnings per share is a measure of a company's profit allocated to each share of stock, taking into account all possible shares that could be created through stock options, convertible bonds, or other securities. It shows the lowest possible earnings per share if all these potential shares were issued, helping investors understand the worst-case scenario for their ownership. This figure matters because it provides a more conservative view of a company's profitability per share.

Cesar Gon, founder and CEO of CI&T, commented, “Our record start to 2026, marked by 23.2% organic growth in 1Q26, confirms that CI&T is successfully evolving into a global partner for tech-integrated business solutions. We continue to advance two distinct AI-driven growth vectors: AI deployment, which expands revenue through IP-based solutions and AI-adoption engagements, and AI monetization, which expands margins by evolving our pricing models to capture a greater share of the productivity gains and business value created by AI.
These two growth vectors are becoming increasingly visible in our results. 2025 was a very strong year for AI deployment, and this trend has only strengthened in 2026. At the same time, our AI monetization efforts are becoming more tangible: in 1Q26, 20% of new sales were already based on new pricing models. We expect these models to contribute to gross margin expansion over the coming quarters as adoption continues to accelerate. Together with a robust and accelerating sales pipeline, these dynamics give us the confidence to increase our full-year revenue guidance.”
