Globant missed Q2 adjusted EPS consensus ( $1.40 vs. $1.50 ) and reported flat revenue of $614.4 million. Management lowered full-year revenue guidance to $2.428–2.462 billion and cut adjusted operating margin guidance to 13.5–14.5%; the Q2 margin was 13.2%. The company cited weaknesses in new markets, reduced travel and hospitality spending, longer decision cycles in North America, and adverse currency effects; the positive ARR increase from Glob.AI was not enough to shift sentiment. The stock fell about 14.6% in premarket trading to $35.01, well below the prior close of $40.99. » More on de.investing.com

The company lowered its 2026 annual forecast to $2.428–$2.462 billion, citing currency pressure, slower decision cycles in North America and weakness in new markets. AI initiatives show strong momentum: ARR from the AI pods rose to $52.8 million, and Glob.AI is expected to exceed $110 million ARR by year-end. Globant is continuing a business optimization program, expects further charges and emphasizes the shift to an AI-native delivery model. » More on de.investing.com

Globant has unveiled the Glob.AI platform, which delivers AI services through specialized "AI Pods" and bills customers based on outcomes or usage instead of per license or hour. AI Pods combine AI agents with human oversight, provide documented, tested processes, and are said by the company to be at least 30% more productive than traditional approaches. Customers retain control over deployed models and data, which are not used to train external models. Initial Fortune 500 customers report efficiency gains; partnerships include Anthropic, OpenAI, AWS, Google Cloud Platform and SAP. » More on de.investing.com
