WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE: WNS) stock soared 6.83% in the pre-market session on Thursday, January 23, 2025, following the company's strong fiscal third-quarter results and raised full-year guidance.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2024, WNS reported adjusted earnings per share of $1.04, in line with estimates, while revenue grew 2.1% year-over-year to $333 million, surpassing expectations of $316.2 million. The company also raised its fiscal 2025 adjusted EPS guidance to $4.46-$4.55 from the previous outlook of $4.13-$4.35, reflecting continued momentum.
The robust performance was driven by new client additions, expansion of existing relationships, and favorable currency movements. These factors offset headwinds from the loss of a large healthcare client, lower volumes in the online travel segment, and reduced discretionary project work. Profit increased due to contingent consideration reversals related to acquisitions, revenue growth, and margin expansion, partially offset by tax impacts.
