Accenture price target lowered to $280 from $300 at Evercore ISI

Evercore ISI lowered the firm’s price target on Accenture (ACN) to $280 from $300 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares after the company reported quarterly results. The firm believes the print and guide were better than feared, though expectations were fairly muted. Going forward, the focus will be on whether we see organic sales and profit acceleration through FY26, especially as the public headwinds persist, within the expected range, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
