What Capgemini does

French IT consulting and outsourcing firm helping large companies with technology, digital transformation and business process services.

Bills clients for staff time or for fixed-price projects and multi-year outsourcing contracts, so earnings follow staff utilisation and headcount rather than product sales. A large share of its workforce is in India. It agreed in 2025 to buy WNS, a business-process outsourcing firm, to add AI-run outsourced services.

Is Capgemini expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 10.4× against a peer median of 19.0×, 2nd cheapest of 21 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 0% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +7%, so the hurdle is -7 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has Capgemini stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned +31.2% against +26.5% for the median peer; over one year -3.6%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
