In Q3 we grew adjusted earnings from operations in every geography and delivered 11% growth in adjusted diluted earnings per share in line with our expectations.
Commercial Revenue was up for the sixth consecutive quarter and we delivered record, gross margin.
Additionally, Cloud. Gross profit was above our expectations and we continue to manage our adjusted expenses. Well,
These results were offset by lower than expected. Gross profit performance and core services and Hardware.
Specifically in the quarter. Overall Revenue was down 4% driven by The netting impact of on-prem software, migrating to Cloud.
Our influence with partners and clients continues to expand which you can see on our balance sheet.
Revenue from our commercial clients grew 5%, offset by a decline in corporate and large enterprise clients.
The Doom demand from our large clients, also impacted Insight core Services Revenue which was down, 3%.
Macro and Technology uncertainty continued to delay, decision-making, and spending in this client group.
However, we are encouraged by the strength of our services, bookings in Q3.
Hardware Revenue grew 1% with growth in both infrastructure and devices.
Cloud gross profit increased 7% and was ahead of our expectations, driven by double-digit growth in SaaS and Infrastructure as a Service.
This performance was partially offset by the partner program changes. We've previously discussed.
as we exit 2025, we believe this impact will be largely behind us.
We expanded total gross margin again. This quarter to a record 21.7% and by prudently managing our adjusted expenses. We delivered adjusted earnings from operations growth and adjusted earnings per share growth of 11%.
We are pleased with the structural improvements. We are making to our services business and the performance of the services practices, we have acquired over the past 2 years,

With that, I'll turn the call over to James James.
Thank you, Joyce, and good morning everyone.
Our Q3 results were mixed with services and Hardware performing below expectations, partially offset by outperformance in Cloud.
Combined with disciplined sgna management. We drove a 5% increase in adjusted earnings from operations, and an 11% increase in adjusted earnings per share.
Net revenue was 2 billion, dollars a decrease of 4%.
The decrease was driven by 6% decline in product primarily due to on-prem software, which declined 19% and was a result of partner consolidation. Last year, that shifted gross product Revenue to net agency services.
Hardware Revenue increased 1% the third consecutive quarter of growth though below our expectations compared to earlier in the year.
Gross profit was flat with mixed performance.
Hardware. Gross profit was down 5%, reflecting pricing, mixed and a challenging compared in Amia.
Hardware gross margin was flat sequentially.
Insight core Services. Gross profit was 79 million. A decrease of 3%, primarily due to a decline in large Enterprise client spending,
Cloud. Gross profit was 130 million. An increase of 7% with growth in both SAS and infrastructures of service partially offset by the partner program changes. We previously discussed
Of course, margin was 21.7% an increase of 100 basis points due to mix.
Adjusted sgna declined, 1% driven by prudent expense management.
This resulted in adjusted ibida of 137 million up 6% while margin expanded 60 basis points to 6.8%.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $2.43, up 11%.
For the quarter, we generated 249 million in cash flow from operation.
This strong result is primarily related to working capital requirements between Q2 and Q3, as previously discussed.
For the year, we continue to anticipate cash flow from operations in the range of 300 to 400 million.
In Q3 we repurchased approximately 75 million of shares. And as of the end of the quarter, we have 149 million remaining on our share repurchase program.
We intend to opportunistically repurchase shares while balancing organic and inorganic Investments.
While we settle 333 million of convertible notes in q1, we still have approximately 600,000 Associated, warrants outstanding, which will be settled before the end of the year.
During the first 3 quarters of the year, we settled 3.6 million warrants for 222 million in cash and settled. Another 900,000 warrants in shares
The net impact of the settlement of the warrants for the year has been reflected in our outstanding diluted share counts.
Year to date the combined effect of the share repurchases, and settlement of the warrants associated, with the convert had the effect of reducing our adjusted diluted share count by approximately 2.7 million shares.
Some subsequent to the end of the quarter on October 1st, we acquired Inspire 11 for a preliminary cash purchase price of approximately 212 million.
The purchase agreement also includes earnout payments, which provide an incentive opportunity for sellers of up to $66 million, contingent upon Inspire 11 achieving certain EBITDA performance targets through 2027.
Additionally, on October 16th, we signed an agreement to acquire a Securo, a global provider of end-to-end cyber security services for an estimated cash purchase price of approximately 130 million Australian dollars.
And incentives contingent upon Securo achieving certain ibida and net revenue. Performance targets through October 2027.
We exited Q3 with total debt of approximately 1.4 billion compared to 1.1 billion dollars a year ago.
The increase in debt was primarily related to a draw down on our abl ahead of the closing of the acquisition of inspire 11 on October 1st, which is reflected in our ending cash balance.
As of the end of Q3, we had access to the full 1.8 billion capacity under our abl facility of which approximately 900 million was available.
We have ample liquidity to meet our needs.
Our adjusted return on invested capital for the trailing 12 months at the end of Q3 was 14.8%, compared to 16.3% a year ago, reflecting lower adjusted net income and an increase in invested capital.
Looking at our year-to-date performance, gross profit has fallen short of expectations partially all set by disciplined expense control.
Although recent partner program changes have impacted our Cloud performance. We continue to make steady progress and pivoting toward the corporate and mid-market space and have navigated the partner program changes as well.
Hardware and core services are below our expectations due to muted. Large Enterprise client, demand partially offset by multiple quarters of strong commercial growth.
As we think about the rest of 2025, we expect macro uncertainty and have considered the following factors in our guidance.
We expect the man with our large clients will improve slightly in Q4.
We Believe, Hardware gross profit will grow modestly in Q4 and will be approximately flat for the year.
When we anticipate Cloud performance to continue to grow and now, expect Cloud gross profits to be flat to slightly up for the year. We still anticipate an approximately 70 million impact for the year related to the partner program changes. We had previously discussed
Including the recent acquisitions, we expect core services will return to growth in Q4. And for the year core Services, gross profit will be approximately flat.
Our recent and anticipated Acquisitions of inspire 11, and secure will be primarily accounted for in core services.
While we expect both to contribute positively to adjusted EBITDA, the impact on adjusted diluted EPS is projected to be slightly diluted due to interest expense.
And we will continue to prove that manage sgna and expect growth slower than gross profit.
As a reminder, we identified incremental opportunities including those driven by AI that will deliver improved operating expense, leverage over the next 12 months, we continue to execute on that plan.
Considering these factors for the full year. Our guidance is as follows. We now, expect gross profit to be slightly down from 2024 and that our gross margin will be approximately 21%.
And our adjusted diluted earnings per share will be between $9.60 to $9.90.
This guidance includes interest and other expenses will be 85 million reflecting incremental, interest related to the Acquisitions of inspire 11 and Sakura.
An effective tax rate of 25% to 26% for the full year.
Capital expenditures of approximately $25 million and an average share count for the full year of approximately 32 million shares, reflecting the settlement of the remaining warrants associated with our convertible notes.
This Outlook excludes acquisition related, intangible amortization, expense of approximately, 74 million. The impact from recent acquisitions, is not factored into this number.
Assumes. No acquisition related costs, Severance and restructuring or transformation expenses and assumes, no change in our debt instruments and no meaningful change in the macroeconomic Outlook either as a result of tariffs or otherwise.
I will now turn the call back to Joyce Joyce.
Thank you, James.
As we work to close out this year, 2025 has been challenging and we have navigated some of the most difficult business changes in recent memory.
We Face macro, headwinds of evolving client needs and significant program changes.
I believe it's exactly in these environments.
Strong companies, distinguish themselves.
We've been busy retooling, our team sharpening, our Focus driving efficiencies and preparing for the emerging AI opportunities.
As we look to 2026, we are positioned very well to take advantage of the changing landscape. We are proud of the underlying strength and profitability of this business. This gives us a clear Runway to demonstrate the power of our business model portfolio of solutions and our expertise.
Our future is bright.
We began the process of preparing for an orderly transition in Earnest earlier this year when we engaged a search firm.
Our next step is to begin a public external search for my successor, given the AI opportunity in front of us and the transformation required.
I fully expect that between now and when we name the next CEO of insight, we will continue to make progress towards delivering on the promise of becoming the leading AI Solutions integrator.
I will ensure a smooth transition and then we'll continue on as an adviser to the new CEO.
I want to thank our teammates for their unwavering commitment, to our clients partners, and each other our clients for trusting insight, to help them with their transformational Journeys. And our partners for their continued collaboration and support in delivering innovative solutions to our clients.
This concludes my comments and we will now open the line for your questions.
Thank you very much. We now have to open the lines for the Q&A as our reminder, if you would like to raise a question, please sign on. Now, by pressing star for by 1 and your telephone keypad to make yourself online, the questioning will be startled by 2 as a reminder, to raise a question. We start off by 1. Now, our first question comes from Joseph kardo. So from JP Morgan Joseph, your line is now open
Hey, good morning everyone. Thank you for the question. Maybe for my first obviously ticking down the guide here in the back half. You know was hoping if we could have helped understanding what's behind the shift in the outlook here. You know, maybe specifically can you give us an update on how the large project headwinds to court services are tracking today? Are they tracking better or worse? And then it also sounds like on the hardware side, it's a bit more sluggish than you expected. 90 days ago. Can you provide any more color on the drivers behind that as well? And what's kind of um triangulating is more muted view there and then I have a follow-up. Thank you.
I'll start. Um,
So you know, I think what we we have been seeing is Enterprises, large Enterprises grappling with this, um the a change in kind of how their it budgets are being allocated and the macro uncertainty. So they're trying to figure out how to pay for the cloud bills that they have. There's some increases in some other, you know, some of the, the software that they've been buying in terms of pricing, um, and they're trying to make sure that they can allocate investment to AI. So they're all they're sort of re-prioritizing their spend and they're taking a bit longer to engage in big Services projects. We are really encouraged by the bookings um, that we're seeing in services and we feel like that's that's turning. Um, but but it has been it's been really slow as we've been talking about this whole year.
Here. Um, on the hardware side, it is a little bit of the same story. I mean that they're trying to figure out how to prioritize their budgets in the most effective way. Um, they are wondering and thinking through kind of what their long-term investment strategies are going to be around PCS as they try to understand kind of what's going on with their headcount projections, Etc, um, again uh related to Ai and also the macro Trends. So um, you're right. Hardware is a little slower that we were expecting a bit more uptick in the Enterprise customers. We think that still is coming, but we, we believe it's just it, there's we've seen continued delays.
No, got I appreciate the color of choice and then and then maybe just on the other side. You know, Cloud gross, profit returning to mid to high single-digit growth here in the quarter kind of gross profit basis. You know, just curious though, how does that growth look like X the partner changes? I think the last couple of quarters you were in kind of the mid to high teens. Is that where we're tracking this quarter as well? And then how should we think about you know, approaching year, end going into next year? Is that underlying growth rate, what we should be kind of aiming for in terms of the growth of this business, particularly now that we should be cycling past the easier comps or what other variables, should we be considering there?
Into next year.
Yep, got it, James. Thank you for the insights there and and that's it for me and congrats Joyce on the retirement.
Thank you very much. As a further reminder, if you would like to raise a question for today's Q&A, please signal now by pressing star, followed by 1, on your telephone keypad. Our next question comes from Adam Tindle from Raymond James. Adam, your line is now open.
Okay. Thanks. Good morning and early. Congrats Joyce. Um, I just wanted to start with the 2 acquisition and maybe a bigger picture question on those. And if I add them up, it's more than 300 million in in capital deployment and compare that to your current market cap, you could make an argument, you could buy back 10% of the company or so. So I just you know, was wondering how you thought about those Acquisitions given their, you know, I think currently dilutive relative to a share repurchase and bigger picture how you're thinking about Capital allocation going forward. Thanks.
And I start with the Strategic piece and then, um, I'll turn it over to James on the capital allocation piece. So we, we thought we're on this long and hard about this. And, of course, we understand the dynamic that you just talked about Adam. Um, look, we, we believe that in AI is not going to wait, um, the the ability to actually deliver outcomes and understand how to sell AI to not only. Not only the IT team but also to the business users and the business unit leaders across our clients
Is increasingly important, something like 65% of those decisions are being made outside of the IT department. Um and and the other thing that's dramatically changing with AI is much more focused on an outcomes based um pricing for example and less. I think we're going to see a significant move away from time and material. Um Insight um was really excited about Inspire 11 because uh, it is an outcome, the outcome based consultancy. Um, that is very very data-oriented um, with really, really strong skills.
Very specific outcomes. And it's a capability that adds to our overall portfolio. And we also have seen as we've looked really carefully at the work we're doing in Amia with a very small acquisition that we did about a year and a half ago. Um, we have nwt, it was called it is called and um we've seen really spectacular pull through of the rest of the portfolio with that sort of tip of the spear advisory capability. So we um, we're replicating that model in North America and we have uh, we have a lot of excitement and a lot of enthusiasm around these capabilities with our clients
So that is the Strategic rationale around Inspire 11. Um, we've been working really, really hard, um, on security to expand our security capabilities because security also isn't going anywhere. It's a very significant growth opportunity. We know we have, we know, we've been talking about it for years that we needed to augment our security capabilities. Securo is a way for us to do that. Um really convinced it really exciting opportunity. We've looked at lots and lots and lots and lots of security companies over the years. So um, we think that, you know, there's a certain timing element to m&a and if you find a great company that's making
Money and has happy clients and has a little bit of Ip like secure. We are very excited to add that to our portfolio. All in. Um we think these are 2 areas that are going to fuel our growth going forward. And while we recognize the multiple issue that you mentioned, we think you still got to focus on delivering long-term value to shareholders. Yeah. And Joe, I just just to add to that. That's, that's exactly the way we think about this. When we look at m&a, uh, obviously the Strategic lens but then what, what generates, uh, the greater long-term value, uh, that, that, that clearly factors into into the calculus when when we do m&a, um, as I think about this year to answer your question in terms of evaluation of m&a versus share BuyBacks, um, I think we've been very balanced this year. If if I, if I look at it we've done 150 million dollars of direct share.
And that, that will always be in my, in my Capital allocation strategy, uh, in the shorter term to be more more, uh, descriptive in the shorter term. I'm aware of where we are from, from a debt, a debt, leverage standpoint? Uh, so in the shorter term, my priority is, is probably to pay down debt, um, but however, we're going to be very balanced in in terms of this and, and we remain, uh, I I think we, we keep our optionality. So, in the, in the shorter term, uh, we have the ability to do, uh, share repurchases. We have the ability to do m&a, but as I think about this, I I'm very careful around around managing the debt profile of the company, uh, as well. But long term, long term m&a is still is still the primary use of of capital.
and I think uh, okay, very helps
Sorry, Adam 1 more thing. I, we expect both of these to be accretive by the end of the year. Um, from an Eva Department, uh, end of end of next year. Yeah, sorry, yeah. End of, yeah, with with within actually, with these 2 Acquisitions from an EPS standpoint, we would expect them to be a, a creative, uh, within within the 4 quarters. Um, and then from an iot standpoint, they're obviously a creative from from from day 1, right?
Got it. Okay, perfect and maybe just as a follow-up Joy double clicking on the services commentary. Um, it's just not as clear to me, you talked about, you know, the uh, willing or um, desire to scale more in that business, which makes sense. And then we're talking about moving from uh, time and materials to outcomes based. As I think about outcomes. Based Services businesses, those are are typically harder to scale because every Project's different. Um, maybe just double click on, you know, the the scale aspect of the services and then, secondly, um, the changes, you know, from a management perspective, you know, is that going to drive maybe additional opportunities to change either kpis or um, or uh, you know, compensation metrics and things like that things?
so, um,
Which is a. Um so there are a few points 1 is the leadership changes that we've driven? Um, a lot of those are taking tried and true leaders and putting them in different parts of the business. In order to drive the same kind of discipline, the same kind of methodology, the same kind of scale that we've seen in, for example, our info center, um, acquisition which has been a tremendous asset for us and the great success. Um, we've also added a brand new leader of our infrastructure business, which is really important to us and um, we're excited about that. So there's leadership there's discipline and methodology and the methodologies that we're talking about and we'll we'll talk a lot more about this when we release
Our AI, um, capabilities that I mentioned a couple of a little bit earlier but um, it is really around making sure that we have defined outcomes and those outcomes are going to be tweaked a little bit as you noted for by, for each customer. But we're really simplifying our offers in a way that we can drive, the re the repeatability, um, of of administering, those offers, um, across our entire set of customers. So, for example, we have, uh, adopted this, to the technology and I can spend more time on it but, um, to deliver something called a radius for AI, radius is what we use as as a disciplined assessment with a set of deliverables, we use it every single time across our portfolio. Now, to start start work and deliver proof of Concepts, but then actually MVPs really really quickly. And then we follow that on with something we've talked about as Dev shop in
Internally which is is an optimization program to deliver a road map, we're finding that when we adopt that info center type technology, we're really able to scale the business, it improves the profitability, but most importantly and improves, the time to value for our clients and it delivers specific kpis. So that's that's kind that's what we're talking about when we talk about this much more disciplined and simplified methodology. Um, and that does allow us to scale. Um, and in terms of kpis, we do
Change the scale required for services business. I mean, yesterday's Services, business required, you know, really deep presence, uh, people wise, in terms of locations, like, in India, Etc. Uh, as we move forward, uh, as as a scale, becomes less relevant to the equation, but the capabilities that you have around Ai and data become far, more important and and that's what, that's what you're seeing us. Put our, our m&a dollars to work. Uh, both both and and this actually goes back to if you look at info center, uh, capabilities around service. Now, those capabilities are critical. You look at what we've done and with MDS capabilities are critical there and so that that's what you're seeing us. Uh, in terms of our Capital allocation strategy where we're putting our Dollar Store. Yeah. Disassociating. The revenue growth from the um, people timing materials piece is is the Holy Grail. We've been thinking about and looking for and services for a really long time. And I think with AI we actually start to realize that promise
Thank you.
