Q2 FY27 results showed weak deal bookings at a near four-year low and soft Q3 guidance, a negative near-term signal, though a recent anti-AI rotation rally and management's claim of slipped deals closing in Q3 add offsetting positive momentum.
Wipro reported Q2 FY27 revenue up 1.1% QoQ/9.1% YoY but total bookings fell to $2.6B from $4.7B a year earlier and large deal bookings dropped 58.6% QoQ, signaling market share loss to rivals. Net profit fell ~1.9% YoY and missed estimates, dragging US-listed shares down 4.5% in premarket trading and deepening turnaround concerns.
Wipro Press ReleaseWipro guided Q3 FY27 IT services revenue to $2,571M-$2,625M, implying -1.5% to +0.5% sequential constant-currency growth, with management citing seasonal furloughs. The soft guidance reinforces near-term growth concerns, though it was modestly ahead of some analyst expectations for a decline up to 2%.
Wipro Press ReleaseOn the Q2 earnings call, CEO Srinivas Pallia said a couple of awarded deals slipped due to unsigned paperwork and will be signed in Q3, and described the Q3 pipeline as "very robust" with revenue upside into Q4. This commentary offers a potential positive offset to the weak bookings headline if deals close as promised.
Wipro Earnings Call TranscriptWipro ADRs rose 5% to a near two-month high of $1.91 on October 15 despite the muted results, as investors rotated back into software stocks amid an "anti-AI trade." The stock has gained ~10% over four sessions, suggesting near-term momentum driven by sector sentiment rather than fundamentals.
