Global study of 1,100 business leaders reveals only 23% say their workforce is ready for AI – declining 6 points from 2025

, /PRNewswire/ -- Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), a leading provider of mission-critical enterprise technology services, today announced the release of its second annual People Readiness Report, a global study of 1,100 senior business and technology leaders across eight countries, revealing a notable drop in workforce AI readiness and a widening gap between AI expectations and execution.

The report illustrates what leaders are doing right to ride the AI surge, and that AI success is not driven solely by different strategies, use cases or technologies – it's driven by whether organizations redesign work and manage those changes throughout their organizations. The data also shows that trust in AI can be built through deliberate operating model and governance changes.

The findings come as companies accelerate AI adoption and invest heavily to realize value at scale. "Worldwide spending on AI is forecast to total $2.52 trillion in 2026, a 44% increase year-over-year, according to Gartner®, Inc., a business and technology insights company."

"This is a critical moment for global enterprises as they race to adopt AI, redesign workflows and pursue innovation, yet they're finding that their greatest assets – their people – need more attention," said Kim Basile, CIO, Kyndryl. "The data shows that the organizations investing in people – whether it's rethinking roles and workflows, dedicating resources for upskilling and retraining, or guiding employees through change – are experiencing positive outcomes at a much higher rate."

"AI's ability to reshape work is challenging organizations to reshape their workforce more rapidly than ever before," said Mark Paulek, Chief Human Resources Officer, Kyndryl. "The leaders pulling ahead are aligning skills, roles and decision-making with how work is actually changing. When people understand their role in that system, trust and performance scale together."

According to the study:

57% say AI is embedded in core business processes or deployed broadly across the enterprise; last year, 35% said AI was fully integrated across their organizations. Only 32% have achieved at least one of their top two AI goals; just 11% have achieved both. The study identifies a Pacesetters group, the 9% of organizations that have done three things: they redesign roles around AI, implement change management so the workforce understands its new operating model and has guardrails in place, and have built workforce readiness. These three behaviors are the operational foundations that consistently distinguish the organizations achieving the strongest results from AI. As they do these things, at each stage they are building the important governance frameworks. Pacesetters are roughly twice as likely to have fully implemented every governance dimension measured.

Pacesetters are:

1.5 times more likely to achieve AI-related revenue growth. 1.6 times more likely to report better innovation for products and services. Business leaders consistently rank workforce readiness among the most challenging aspects of AI adoption:

Just 23% of organizations think their workforces are fully ready for AI, a six-point drop from last year. And 79% agree that the speed of AI will outpace their organizations' workforce, governance and operating models. The risk of falling behind is increasing as more organizations adopt autonomous AI agents.

81% of organizations expect AI agents to make impactful decisions for their organizations within the next year, but today just 25% completely trust AI systems operating without human oversight. Readying Workforces for AI-enabled Workplaces
The report identifies actions that organizations are taking to get their workforces ready for an AI-enabled workplace:

Redesigning roles for the future: 61% say their organizations have already redesigned roles, and 24% are creating new roles focused on AI management. Addressing skills gaps: Half of leaders (52%) say it has become more challenging to find employees with the right skills to advance their AI strategy, and a third have fully implemented training programs focused on helping employees effectively collaborate with AI tools. Building trust through governance: A third of organizations (33%) claim they have clear policies on which decisions AI can and can't make, and 27% are using a registry and monitoring capabilities for all their AI systems. Organizations with stronger governance assert their workforces trust more in AI strategy and execution, and high-trust organizations are significantly more likely to report transformative outcomes from their AI investments.  Learn more about People Readiness.

The Company's actual business, financial condition or results of operations may differ materially from those suggested by forward-looking statements as a result of risks and uncertainties which include, among others: failure to attract new customers, retain existing customers or sell services to customers; failure to meet growth and productivity objectives and maintain our capital allocation strategy; competition; impacts of relationships with critical suppliers and partners; failure to address and adapt to technological developments and trends; inability to attract and retain key personnel and other skilled employees; impact of economic, geopolitical, public health and other conditions; damage to the Company's reputation and impact on the Company and our stock price resulting from negative publicity; inability to accurately estimate the cost of services and the timeline for completion of contracts; service delivery issues; the Company's ability to successfully manage acquisitions and dispositions, including integration challenges, failure to achieve objectives, the assumption of liabilities and higher debt levels; the Company's ability to refinance maturing debt on favorable terms in a timely manner, or at all, and risks related to the Company's access to capital and credit markets; failure of the Company's intellectual property rights to prevent competitive offerings and the failure of the Company to obtain, retain and extend necessary licenses; the impairment of our goodwill or long-lived assets; risks relating to cybersecurity, data governance and privacy; risks relating to non-compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and changes in laws, regulations and policies in the U.S. and countries where the Company and its customers do business, including with respect to tariffs, taxes and other controls on imports or exports; adverse effects from tax matters; risks related to legal and regulatory claims, suits, investigations, proceedings and other matters, and consequences relating thereto; the Company's ability to remediate, and the timing and costs related to the remediation of, material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as well as the Company's ability to maintain effective controls in the future; the impact of changes in market liquidity conditions and customer credit risk on receivables; the Company's pension plans; the impact of currency fluctuations; and risks related to the Company's common stock and the securities market.

Additional risks and uncertainties include, among others, those risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company's subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Any forward-looking statement in this press release speaks only as of the date on which it is made.  Except as required by law, the Company assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In this release, certain amounts may not add due to the use of rounded numbers; percentages presented are calculated based on the underlying amounts.  Forecasted amounts are based on currency exchange rates as of April 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding its results, the Company has provided certain metrics that are not calculated based on generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), such as constant-currency results, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted pretax income, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted pretax margin, adjusted net margin, net debt, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted operating cash flow.  Such non-GAAP metrics are intended to supplement GAAP metrics, but not to replace them.  The Company's non-GAAP metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics used by other companies.  Definitions and additional information about our calculation of non-GAAP metrics and reconciliations of non-GAAP metrics for historical periods to GAAP metrics are included in the tables in this release.

A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial information is not included in this release because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty some individual components of such reconciliation without unreasonable effort.  These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and could have a material impact on future results computed in accordance with GAAP.

Table 4
NON-GAAP METRIC DEFINITIONS AND RECONCILIATIONS
(dollars in millions, except signings)

We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP.  We also present certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide useful supplemental information to investors.  We provide these non-GAAP financial measures as we believe it enhances investors' visibility to management decisions and their impacts on operational performance; enables better comparison to peer companies; and allows us to provide a long-term strategic view of the business going forward. Moreover, we use certain of these non-GAAP financial metrics in measuring performance under our executive compensation plans.

Constant-currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period over period.  We define constant-currency revenues as total revenues excluding the impact of foreign exchange rate movements and use it to determine the constant-currency revenue growth on a year-over-year basis.  Constant-currency revenues are calculated by translating current period revenues using corresponding prior-period exchange rates.

Adjusted pretax income is defined as pretax income excluding transaction-related costs and benefits, charges related to ceasing to use leased / fixed assets, charges related to lease terminations, pension costs other than pension servicing costs and multi-employer plan costs, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, workforce rebalancing charges incurred prior to March 31, 2024, impairment expense, significant litigation costs and benefits, and currency impacts of highly inflationary countries.  Adjusted pretax margin is calculated by dividing adjusted pretax income by revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation of right-of-use assets and amortization of capitalized contract costs), charges related to ceasing to use leased / fixed assets, charges related to lease terminations, transaction-related costs and benefits, pension costs other than pension servicing costs and multi-employer plan costs, stock-based compensation expense, workforce rebalancing charges incurred prior to March 31, 2024, impairment expense, significant litigation costs and benefits, and currency impacts of highly inflationary countries.  Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenue.

Adjusted net income is defined as adjusted pretax income less the reported provision for income taxes, minus or plus the tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments made to calculate adjusted pretax income, and excluding exceptional items impacting the reported provision for income taxes.  Adjusted net margin is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by revenue.

Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) is defined as adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding to reflect shares that are dilutive or anti-dilutive based on the amount of adjusted net income.  The weighted average common shares outstanding used to calculate adjusted earnings per share will differ from such shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share (GAAP) when the inclusion of dilutive shares has an anti-dilutive effect for one calculation but not for the other.

Free cash flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities (GAAP), less net capital expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities (GAAP) after adding back transaction-related payments, charges related to lease terminations, payments related to workforce rebalancing charges incurred prior to March 31, 2024, and significant litigation payments (collectively referred to as adjusted operating cash flow), less net capital expenditures.  Management uses free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow as measures to evaluate our operating results, plan strategic investments and assess our ability and need to incur and service debt.  We believe these metrics are useful supplemental financial measures to aid investors in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments and to service our debt.  Free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted operating cash flow are financial measures that are not recognized under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operations or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As part of the Company's ongoing cash and commercial management strategy with customers and suppliers and as previously disclosed, the Company's standard practice since the time of the Company's spin-off from International Business Machines Corporation is to actively manage the Company's working capital, including accounts receivables and accounts payables. This includes optimizing payment terms and conditions, accelerating certain cash receipts and delaying certain cash payments (including deferring vendor payments quarter to quarter), and undertaking other discretionary cash and working capital management initiatives. The magnitude of these practices (including deferrals) has varied from quarter to quarter and impacted the Company's cash flows (and related non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted free cash flow), including positively in certain periods. The effects of these practices have been and are reflected in the Company's accounts payable, accounts receivable and cash flow balance, which are accounted for in accordance with GAAP. The Company's working capital and cash flows have also reflected the impact of accrued contract costs in certain periods due to the timing of vendor billings. The Company may, from time to time, revise or adapt the Company's cash and working capital management practices as it deems appropriate. Free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted operating cash flow for the three and twelve months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, as well as the free cash flow guidance and adjusted free cash flow targets included in this press release or the Company's other earnings materials, reflect the historical and expected application of these practices.

Signings are defined by Kyndryl as an initial estimate of the value of a customer's commitment under a contract.  The calculation involves estimates and judgments to gauge the extent of a customer's commitment.  We calculate this based on various considerations including the type and duration of the agreement as well as the presence of termination charges or wind-down costs.  Contract extensions and increases in scope are treated as signings only to the extent of the incremental new value.  Signings can vary over time due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the timing of signing a small number of larger outsourcing contracts, as well as the length of those contracts.  The conversion of signings into revenue may vary based on the types of services and solutions, customer decisions and other factors, which may include, but are not limited to, macroeconomic environment or external events.  Management uses signings to monitor the performance of the business, as a measure of customer engagement and our ability to drive growth.

CompaniesMay 6 (Reuters) - Software provider Kyndryl (KD.N), opens new tab said it would cut jobs as part of a new cost-saving plan and forecast ​annual pretax profit below Wall Street estimates on Wednesday.

Shares of ‌the company fell over 12% in early trading.

The Reuters Inside Track newsletter is your essential guide during the World Cup. Sign up here.

The company, which was spun off from IBM (IBM.N), opens new tab in 2021, has been restructuring a number of low- or no-margin ​contracts it inherited from the tech giant to improve profitability.

The ​company said the plan would help reduce annual operating ⁠costs by about $400 million to $500 million in fiscal 2028.

It expects to ​record about $200 million in related charges, mostly for severance and employee benefits.

The ​cuts come after the software provider delayed the filing of its October-December report, made several management changes, and launched an accounting review over "potential weaknesses" found in its ​internal controls.

The company had about 73,000 employees as of March 31, ​2025. Kyndryl did not disclose how many jobs would be affected by the move.

Kyndryl ‌expects ⁠adjusted pretax income between $600 and $700 million in fiscal 2027, including workforce rebalancing charges. The midpoint of this range came in below analysts' average estimate of $672.7 million, according to data compiled by LSEG.

Despite the challenges, ​the company has ​benefited from a ⁠resilient demand environment. Businesses have prioritized spending on essential software and IT services amid macroeconomic uncertainty driven ​by U.S. President Donald Trump's ongoing global trade negotiations.

That ​trend has ⁠helped shield companies such as Kyndryl, whose services support day‑to‑day business operations and enable the integration of artificial intelligence technologies across enterprise systems.

Fourth-quarter ⁠revenue came ​in at $3.77 billion, beating estimates of $3.75 ​billion. Adjusted profit plunged to 18 cents per share, compared with estimates of 45 cents.

Kyndryl Holdings, Inc. (KD) Q4 2026 Earnings Call Transcript

Patented Kyndryl Bridge feature identifies IT issues which AI agents can then resolve, driving savings by avoiding incidents and eliminating costly planned maintenance

, /PRNewswire/ -- Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), a leading provider of mission-critical enterprise technology services, today unveiled a new patented capability in Kyndryl Bridge – the Company's Al-powered, open integration platform – that is enabling customers to automatically detect and resolve IT risks before they escalate into business-impacting outages.

Kyndryl's prediction and prevention capability has been deployed on Kyndryl Bridge and is providing AI agent-assisted support to the more than 1,400 customers using Kyndryl Bridge. Kyndryl Bridge generates more than 16 million AI insights each month, has demonstrated a reduction in IT incidents by up to 50% and drives an aggregate $3 billion in annual customer savings from avoided impact events and planned maintenance costs.

"By embedding AI agents in Kyndryl Bridge for proactive risk detection, we are transforming IT operations from reactive outage recovery to proactive, evidence-based prevention," said Xerxes Cooper, Global Leader, Kyndryl Delivery. "Correlating millions of observability signals across applications and deep infrastructure helps our customers see and resolve issues before they ever feel them."

This proactive approach is powered by AI-agent assisted root cause analysis within Kyndryl Bridge, enabled across more than 200,000 customer devices to identify the underlying conditions that commonly precede outages. By accelerating analysis that once required extensive manual investigation, the platform enables teams to surface actionable insights faster – supporting earlier intervention and reducing the impact of complex incidents across hybrid and multi-vendor environments.

At scale, this advanced capability radically reduces the time required to complete root-cause analysis of major IT incidents, allowing organizations to complete reports in hours instead of weeks. Kyndryl experts review and validate the generated insights for operational context and alignment with customer environments.

Predictive Detection and Prevention of Failures

Kyndryl's new prediction and prevention feature brings evidence-based intelligence to enable predictive failure detection within IT operations by extending unified observability across a customer's full IT landscape.

The patented feature dynamically identifies patterns that matter and validates causal relationships between application slowdowns, infrastructure contention, configuration changes, and operational events. It does so by analyzing and delivering insights into how small anomalies accumulate and propagate across IT layers. This transforms IT operations from reactive recovery to proactive prevention, enabling teams to intervene early and reduce downtime across complex, multi-vendor environments.

Customer Impact & Availability

Customer engagements show encouraging results with accelerated detection and improved accuracy of issue prevention that may have led to business downtime. This capability handles early detection at scale for 10 million-plus incidents annually and has demonstrated upwards of a 90% reduction in mission-critical production outages for certain customers.

This Kyndryl Bridge patented capability is now fully available to Kyndryl customers.

Learn more about Kyndryl Bridge and how it continues to strengthen its position as the industry's leading platform for proactive IT operations and innovation.

MarketBeat Week in Review – 02/17 - 02/21Kyndryl NYSE: KD reported flat full-year fiscal 2026 revenue on a reported basis and outlined a fiscal 2027 outlook that reflects continued pressure from longer sales cycles and changes in how customers buy IBM-related technology, while management emphasized margin expansion, cash generation and growth in consulting and hyperscaler-related services.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Martin Schroeter said the company delivered adjusted pretax income growth, margin expansion and more than $400 million in free cash flow during the year ended March 31, 2026. He said the results came despite an environment that “continued to extend sales cycles and weigh on our revenue and signings performance.”

Kyndryl Soars on AI, Cybersecurity Growth—What’s Next?“Customers are telling us that they are eager to embrace innovative solutions and modernization strategies, yet they are increasingly thoughtful and deliberate in their IT decision-making,” Schroeter said, citing data sovereignty, artificial intelligence and cyber preparedness as factors influencing customer decisions.

Fiscal 2026 Revenue Flat on Reported Basis Kyndryl generated $15.1 billion in fiscal 2026 revenue, flat from the prior year on a reported basis and down 3% in constant currency. Total signings were $13.5 billion. Adjusted EBITDA was $2.7 billion, and adjusted pretax income was $581 million.

MarketBeat Week in Review – 9/25 - 9/29Management said adjusted EBITDA margin rose 100 basis points year over year, while adjusted pretax margin increased 60 basis points. The improvement reflected a shift toward higher-margin post-spin signings flowing through the profit and loss statement.

Harsh, speaking during the company’s prepared remarks, said Kyndryl’s “three-A’s” initiatives remained a source of margin expansion. Through alliances, Kyndryl generated $1.9 billion in hyperscaler-related revenue in fiscal 2026, up 59% from the prior year and ahead of the 50% growth target the company had expected at the start of the year. Advanced Delivery has generated roughly $1 billion in cumulative annual savings, while the Accounts initiative has produced $1 billion in cumulative annualized profit savings from focus accounts.

Free cash flow was $406 million for fiscal 2026, which management said was about $50 million above the midpoint of the company’s February guidance range of $325 million to $375 million. Kyndryl ended the year with $2.6 billion in cash, including $1 billion drawn under its revolving credit facility. Management said net leverage was 0.5 times adjusted EBITDA.

Consulting and Hyperscaler Revenue Remain Growth Areas Schroeter said Kyndryl Consult delivered double-digit revenue growth for the third consecutive year. He said Consult signings exceeded revenue for the year, positioning the business for another year of growth.

Schroeter also highlighted hyperscaler-related revenue, which reached nearly $2 billion in fiscal 2026. He said that revenue stream was “essentially zero” four years ago. In addition to hyperscalers, Kyndryl is also expanding relationships with partners including Broadcom, Dell and Hewlett Packard Enterprise as private cloud demand becomes a more important growth factor.

The company said 80% of fiscal 2027 revenue is expected to come from post-spin, higher-margin signings. Kyndryl signed 38 deals larger than $50 million in fiscal 2026, with more than 30% consisting of new scope or new logos. Over the past three years, the company has signed more than 125 large deals.

AI and Modernization Central to Customer Demand Schroeter said customer conversations are increasingly centered on agentic AI, including return on investment, cybersecurity, workforce implications and compliance in regulated industries. He said modernization has become a requirement as customers contend with technology debt and rising operational costs.

Within Kyndryl’s own delivery operations, Schroeter said AI agents embedded in the Kyndryl Bridge platform are improving productivity. He cited incidents being resolved 70% to 90% faster, root cause analysis cycles becoming approximately 75% faster and dependence on people’s time being reduced by 50% to 70%.

Schroeter also described customer examples involving a large European bank, a global insurance company and U.S. state government agencies. In those cases, he said Kyndryl is applying agentic AI and modernization services to hybrid cloud, mainframe transformation and digital public-sector platforms.

IBM Buying Shift Weighs on Revenue, Not Profit Management repeatedly addressed the evolving relationship with IBM. Harsh said customers have changed how they consume Kyndryl’s services and IBM innovation, especially in the second half of fiscal 2026. He said those changes do not affect the scope or margin of Kyndryl’s services, but they do affect signings size and revenue over time.

At the time of Kyndryl’s spin-off, Harsh said the company’s annualized run rate of spend with IBM was nearly $4 billion. By the end of fiscal 2026, that run rate was less than $2 billion.

In response to a question from Susquehanna analyst Jamie Friedman, Schroeter said the IBM dynamic has evolved differently than the company expected, including compared with assumptions made at its Investor Day and at the start of the prior year.

“It is only on the revenue side,” Schroeter said. “We have zero ability to mark up IBM’s content within our deals.” He said customers’ choices affect signings, backlog and revenue, but not profit.

Fiscal 2027 Outlook and 2028 Targets For fiscal 2027, Kyndryl expects adjusted pretax income of $600 million to $700 million. The outlook includes about $200 million of charges tied to workforce rebalancing actions, expected primarily in the first quarter. Management said related savings should largely offset those charges during fiscal 2027 and generate annualized savings of $400 million to $500 million in fiscal 2028.

The company expects fiscal 2027 free cash flow of $400 million to $500 million, with cash taxes estimated at about $200 million. Revenue is expected to be flat to down 2% in constant currency. Management said Kyndryl Consult and alliance-related revenue should continue to grow, while the IBM-related headwind is expected to remain similar to recent experience. Second-half revenue is expected to be stronger than first-half revenue.

Schroeter said Kyndryl remains focused on its fiscal 2028 targets of more than $1.2 billion in adjusted pretax income and more than $1 billion in free cash flow. He said those targets can be achieved with low single-digit constant currency revenue growth in fiscal 2028.

During the Q&A, Schroeter said sales cycles are likely to remain complex because of the mission-critical nature of Kyndryl’s work, customer choice, regulatory considerations and sovereignty concerns. He said the company’s pipeline entering fiscal 2027 is larger than it was a year earlier and noted that some deals expected in March closed in April.

Kyndryl also said it continues to address previously disclosed material weaknesses in internal controls. Schroeter said the issues did not affect previously issued financial statements and that the company expects design, implementation and testing of controls to be completed when it files its fiscal 2027 Form 10-K next year.
