The Top 5 Analyst Questions From EPAM's Q1 Earnings Call
EPAM's first quarter results were well received by the market, driven by a combination of strong double-digit revenue growth and continued expansion in advanced AI-related services. Management attributed the performance to higher client engagement across core verticals, meaningful progress in cross-selling, and increased demand for digital transformation, particularly in AI-native projects. CEO Arkadiy Dobkin noted that supplier consolidation trends have helped EPAM regain business from clients seeking quality and execution, stating, 'We are encouraged to see EPAM benefit from supplier consolidation activity in our core portfolio,' and highlighted that organic growth exceeded initial expectations. Is now the time to buy EPAM? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Revenue: $1.30 billion vs analyst estimates of $1.28 billion (11.7% year-on-year growth, 1.6% beat) Adjusted EPS: $2.41 vs analyst estimates of $2.27 (6.1% beat) Adjusted EBITDA: $189.5 million vs analyst estimates of $184.1 million (14.6% margin, 3% beat) Revenue Guidance for Q2 CY2025 is $1.33 billion at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $1.30 billion Management raised its full-year Adjusted EPS guidance to $10.83 at the midpoint, a 2.1% increase Operating Margin: 7.6%, down from 9.5% in the same quarter last year Constant Currency Revenue rose 12.6% year on year (-4.3% in the same quarter last year) Market Capitalization: $10.14 billion While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention. Bryan Bergin (TD Cowen) asked about the confidence behind raised organic growth guidance and the visibility into second-half demand. CEO Arkadiy Dobkin and CFO Jason Peterson said performance in the first half was better than expected, but visibility for the second half remains limited. Ramsey El-Assal (Barclays) questioned the trajectory of free cash flow and whether recent headwinds were temporary. Peterson explained that Q1 is seasonally low due to bonus payments and milestone billing, and cash flow conversion should normalize, though days sales outstanding may stay slightly elevated. Maggie Nolan (William Blair) inquired about plans to improve gross margin over the year. Peterson cited seasonal benefits, improved utilization, and a renewed focus on operational efficiency but acknowledged that acquisition-related headwinds and wage inflation would persist. David Grossman (Stifel) sought details on client cohort growth, especially outside the top 20 clients. Dobkin explained that returning clients and M&A were driving new customer growth, with improvements accumulating each quarter. Jamie Friedman (Susquehanna) probed into the shift toward fixed-price contracts and its impact on risk and margins. Peterson noted that the change reflects evolving pricing models and shorter-term contracts, especially from acquisitions, but risk is managed through structured arrangements and productivity gains from AI. In the coming quarters, we will be watching (1) the pace of AI-related deal expansion and whether early-stage projects convert to larger, multi-year programs, (2) improvements in utilization and gross margin as EPAM executes on operational efficiency initiatives, and (3) the impact of leadership transition on strategic execution. Additionally, tracking the effect of macroeconomic conditions and client budget trends will be important for assessing the sustainability of growth. EPAM currently trades at $179.03, up from $159.44 just before the earnings. In the wake of this quarter, is it a buy or sell? See for yourself in our full research report (it's free). Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election sent major indices to all-time highs, but stocks have retraced as investors debate the health of the economy and the potential impact of tariffs. While this leaves much uncertainty around 2025, a few companies are poised for long-term gains regardless of the political or macroeconomic climate, like our Top 5 Strong Momentum Stocks for this week. This is a curated list of our High Quality stocks that have generated a market-beating return of 183% over the last five years (as of March 31st 2025). Stocks that made our list in 2020 include now familiar names such as Nvidia (+1,545% between March 2020 and March 2025) as well as under-the-radar businesses like the once-small-cap company Exlservice (+354% five-year return).
