Gartner Q3 2026: CV growth accelerates for third consecutive quarter; full-year guidance raised across all measures as AI demand intensifies
Gartner's contract value growth accelerated for the third consecutive quarter to 2.5% year-over-year, with GBS outperforming at 3.7% CV growth and the U.S. federal business delivering $15 million of positive NCVI, signaling continued normalization after prior-period disruption. EBITDA of $364 million grew 8% year-over-year on margin expansion of roughly 90 basis points in Insights, while adjusted EPS of $3.59 rose 30% driven by EBITDA outperformance and a favorable tax rate of approximately 17%. Management raised full-year guidance across revenue, EBITDA, EPS, and free cash flow, and explicitly walked back the prior 4% ex-Fed CV exit-rate expectation for year-end 2026, citing geopolitical headwinds in the Middle East and prolonged technology-sector layoffs as the binding constraints on new business conversion.
