In other recent news, Gartner Inc. reported its first-quarter earnings for 2025, revealing adjusted earnings per share of $2.98, surpassing the forecast of $2.75. Revenue was consistent with expectations at $1.53 billion, marking a 4% increase year-over-year. Notably, Gartner’s free cash flow saw a significant rise of 73% compared to the previous year. Despite the positive earnings report, Gartner experienced a decline in new business, attributed to slower decision-making processes among clients and a significant renewal cycle with the US Federal Government, where approximately 40% of contracts were up for renewal, and only half were renewed. In light of these developments, BMO Capital Markets raised its price target for Gartner shares from $459 to $465, maintaining a Market Perform rating. The firm noted that the market had already anticipated some of the challenges faced by Gartner, such as the churn from the Federal Government contracts. Gartner’s guidance for 2025 projects at least $6.535 billion in total consolidated revenue, with an anticipated adjusted EPS of at least $11.70.
