Innodata Pushes Into Agentic AI as Q2 Revenue Jumps 58%
Innodata Inc. is pushing deeper into agentic artificial intelligence, with reinforcement learning emerging as a potentially important growth engine. The company has won a significant program with a large AI lab focused on personalizing long-horizon agents, which is now scaling, along with another program to build reinforcement-learning environments for desktop computer-use agents. Delivery expanded with two big-tech customers during the second quarter, while discussions with banking and insurance companies could lead to additional pilots. Second-quarter revenues surged 58% year over year to $92.1 million, while adjusted EBITDA climbed 92% to $25.4 million, and Innodata reiterated its 2026 revenue-growth outlook of at least 40%. Innodata faces growing competition from Genpact and Cognizant as enterprise demand shifts toward agentic AI, governance and deployment at scale, though its distinction lies in a deeper focus on data engineering, model evaluation and reinforcement-learning environments for long-horizon agents.

Genpact lifts tech-led guidance after second quarter beat
Genpact raised its technology-led guidance while reporting higher revenue, profit and earnings per share for the second quarter of 2026 on 6 August, alongside an ongoing share buyback. The company’s strong pipeline in high-tech, manufacturing and financial services verticals, combined with increasing large-deal activity, supports above-sector-average revenue and EPS growth expectations. Despite the improved outlook, the stock fell 5.17% on the day and is down 25.31% year to date, though it had gained 16.75% over the prior 30 days. A widely followed narrative values Genpact at $39.27 per share, compared with the latest close of $34.29, implying a 12.7% undervaluation. Risks remain if slower core BPO demand persists or if heavier AI investment fails to translate into expected premium contracts.
Four Mid-Cap Stocks Fit the Leveraged Buyout Template
Four mid-cap companies—OpenText, Brink's, Genpact, and DXC Technology—check every box for a leveraged buyout, according to an analysis by 24/7 Wall St. OpenText, trading at a forward P/E of 5x with 82% recurring revenue and a new CEO conducting a strategic review, is seen as the cleanest LBO setup. Brink's generates $436.4 million in free cash flow and trades at an EV/EBITDA of 9x, with insiders accumulating shares. Genpact, a BPO firm with private-equity roots, trades at a trailing P/E of 9x and saw its Advanced Technology Solutions segment grow 24.3% in the first quarter. DXC Technology, the deepest value name, has a market cap of roughly $1.6 billion against operating cash flow of $1.036 billion and an EV/EBITDA of 2.4x. Historically, private-equity buyouts have delivered a 20% to 40% cash premium to shareholders.

Genpact Limited touted as undervalued AI play with 30% to 90% upside
A bullish thesis on Genpact Limited argues the stock is an overlooked value opportunity trading at a significant discount to its intrinsic worth. The company posted $5.08 billion in revenue for fiscal 2025, up 6.6% year-over-year, while diluted EPS rose 9.8% to $3.13 and adjusted EPS climbed 11.3% to $3.65. With a return on invested capital of 13.7% versus a cost of capital near 6.6%, a debt-to-equity ratio that has fallen to 0.23 from 1.05 in 2021, and free cash flow of roughly $566 million, the business is valued at only about 10.3 times free cash flow. The thesis highlights a disconnect between the market's view of Genpact as a traditional outsourcing firm vulnerable to AI and its evolution into an AI-enabled transformation partner, where Advanced Technology Solutions revenue grew 17% and now makes up 24% of total revenue, backed by a record $5.5 billion bookings backlog and more than 400 deployed generative AI solutions. Valuation models suggest intrinsic value between $40 and $65 per share, implying potential upside of roughly 30% to more than 90% from the $34 level.
Genpact reported first-quarter 2026 earnings of 98 cents per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 93 cents and rising 16.7% year over year. Total revenues reached $1.3 billion, surpassing the consensus of $1.29 billion and growing 6.7% from the prior-year quarter. The company benefits from its leading position in Business Process Outsourcing services and AI-driven solutions like the Genpact Cora platform, though it faces challenges from regional client concentration in North America and Europe and stiff industry competition. Genpact maintained strong shareholder returns, paying $100 million in dividends and repurchasing $225.5 million in shares in 2025, while holding a cash balance of $578 million against $376 million in current debt at quarter-end.
G · Capital · Positive Genpact reported Q1 2026 earnings of 98 cents per share, beating estimates and rising 16.7% YoY, with revenues also above consensus.

Bond Rally Fails to Allay Higher-for-Longer Global Rates Threat
Governments around the world look to be facing lofty borrowing costs for at least the rest of the year, even as the fragile Middle East truce lowers energy prices and curbs inflationary fears. US Treasuries, German bunds and UK gilts have risen since Donald Trump announced a deal with Iran on Sunday, but strategists and investors say the economic fallout from the war will continue to reverberate around markets for months to come. Even as the Federal Reserve is forecast to keep interest rates on hold at its meeting Wednesday, market pricing points to hikes in 2027, with pressure on longer-maturity debt as US government spending shows no sign of abating. Yields on benchmark 10-year Treasuries have risen almost half a percentage point since the US and Israel attacked Iran in late February, and traders have reduced their net long positions to the lowest since May 18, according to a survey of JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s Treasury clients. Most of the increase in yields was driven by real yields, indicating that bond investors' concerns go beyond price pressures from the Iran war and reflect a stronger growth outlook and expectations of a rising neutral rate.
