The company reported a pretax income of $91 million, a significant decrease from the prior-year period's $258 million.

Notable developments in the quarter include double-digit revenue growth in Kyndryl Consult, with revenues growing 24% year-over-year and reaching $3.6 billion over the last twelve months. Additionally, as part of its alliances initiative, Kyndryl generated $500 million in revenue tied to cloud hyperscaler alliances, marking a 58% year-over-year increase.

Looking ahead to fiscal year 2026, Kyndryl provided an outlook, including adjusted pretax income of $575 to $600 million, an adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 17.5%, and a projected constant-currency revenue decline of 2% to 3%.

The company also announced several leadership changes and a strategic acquisition, as well as its designation as one of 19 "critical third-party providers" under the European Union's Digital Operational Resilience Act.
