Cognizant Technology Solutions is expanding its share repurchase plans following Board approval of a $2 billion increase to its existing stock repurchase authorization. With this change, there is approximately $3.45 billion remaining available for buybacks as of May 17, 2026.
For 2026, the company has raised its share repurchase target by $1 billion to a total of $2 billion, with the additional $1 billion in repurchases expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2026. Management links this decision to confidence in Cognizant’s AI-led growth prospects and a belief that the current share price undervalues those opportunities.
To support this capital return and the anticipated closing of the previously announced acquisition of Astreya, Cognizant plans to draw down $1 billion from its existing revolving credit facility. The company reiterates its long-term capital allocation framework, highlighting flexibility to continue strategic mergers and acquisitions alongside returning cash to shareholders.

Cognizant Technology Solutions delivered steady Q1 2026 results with revenues of $5,413 million, up 5.8% year over year, or 3.9% in constant currency. Growth was driven by large deal ramp-ups, higher demand for AI and analytics, and increased sales of third-party products.
Net income was $662 million, essentially flat versus Q1 2025, while diluted EPS rose to $1.39 from $1.34. GAAP and Adjusted operating margins were both 15.6%, supported by operational efficiencies and favorable Indian rupee movements, but offset by mix shift to third-party products, the dilutive impact of the 3Cloud acquisition and higher compensation.
The company closed the 3Cloud deal for a preliminary purchase price of $728 million and later agreed to acquire Astreya for about $600 million in cash plus an earn-out to deepen AI-focused managed services. Cognizant also announced Project Leap, a 2026 program expected to incur $230–$320 million in restructuring-type costs and generate in-year savings of $200–$300 million to fund AI and integrated offerings investments.
