Wide-moat professional tool franchise with pricing power, net cash, and buybacks compounding patiently.
Wonderful businesses at a margin of safety
Cheap, cash-rich services firm beats the decline already priced in, but AI threatens the billable-hour engine.
Cognizant earns fees building, maintaining, and running large enterprises' IT systems — application development, consulting, and business-process services sold mainly to financial services and healthcare clients through multi-year contracts. It is a people business: profit comes from the spread between client billable rates and the cost of a global (largely India-based) engineering workforce. The model is asset-light and cash-generative, with revenue tied to headcount and billable hours rather than products.
