I am deeply grateful to our over 350,000 employees who helped make 2025 a defining year for Cognizant in which we put our AI builder strategy in motion and returned to the ‘winner’s circle’ two years ahead of the target we set at our Investor Day. We have invested in our talent, strengthened our partnership ecosystem and advanced our AI platforms to help clients scale AI across the enterprise. These investments helped us sign 28 large deals in 2025 with large deal TCV growth of nearly 50%. We are confident that the foundation we built over the last three years positions us well to carry this momentum in the years ahead.
