What DXC Technology does

Global IT services company providing application modernization, cloud migration and outsourcing to large enterprises.

Paid under multi-year contracts to run customers' computer systems, so revenue is steady but shrinks when contracts end or are re-priced. It was created in 2017 by merging Computer Sciences Corporation with Hewlett Packard Enterprise's services arm, and much of the base is older infrastructure work it is trying to add cloud projects to.

Products and services

  • IT outsourcing (infrastructure/apps)
  • Cloud/application modernization
  • Insurance software (BPS)

Customers

  • Large enterprises (insurance, banking, government)
  • Government agencies

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Information technology
  • IT services/outsourcing
  • Enterprise digital transformation

What could go right

  • Enterprise IT modernization spending
  • Cost-out/managed-services demand

What could go wrong

  • Legacy contract runoff/pricing pressure
  • Competition from offshore IT services

Moat: narrow (switching costs, installed base). Multi-year outsourcing contracts running customers' core systems are costly and risky to switch away from.

Recent delivered growth is -7%, so the hurdle is +10 pp: the price needs faster growth than the company has been delivering — of companies that just grew 25–50% a year, 93.8% slowed down over the next four years.
How has DXC Technology stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned +57.6% against -33.9% for the median peer; over one year +7.6%.
What is DXC Technology's backlog?
DXC Technology's remaining performance obligations (contracted revenue not yet recognised) were $15.8B at 30 Sep 2026, -3% on a year earlier.

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.
