Globant cuts 2026 outlook as demand weakens, AI growth offers hope

Full-year guidance cut and Q2 EPS miss Globant cut its 2026 revenue, margin, and EPS outlook and missed non-GAAP EPS by $0.10, blaming weaker demand in new markets, oil-price pressure on travel clients, and slow client decisions. The stock fell about 13-15%, as lower profit expectations directly reduce what investors will pay for shares.
This is the main new event that moved the stock and reset expectations for the year.
Glob.AI output-based pricing launch and 60% ARR jump Globant launched Glob.AI, an AI platform billed by output rather than hours, and said its Glob AI annual recurring revenue jumped about 60% to $52.8 million, targeting over $110 million by year-end. This supports the long-term story that AI services can grow faster and earn better margins, though it is not yet big enough to offset the guidance cut.
It is the main new positive force and the company's key growth narrative.
Securities class action over Latin America disclosures A securities class action alleges Globant misled investors about its Latin American operations, which were said to face declining demand, client defections, and frozen wages. The June 23 lead-plaintiff deadline passed, but the lawsuit remains an overhang, adding legal costs and uncertainty that can weigh on the stock.
It is a new legal risk that can affect investor confidence and costs.

Buyback and AI video bet drive Wangsu higher

Share buyback for cancellation Wangsu will buy back 300–600 million yuan of its own shares and cancel them, shrinking the number of shares outstanding. This signals management thinks the stock is cheap and lifts earnings per share, supporting the price. It has already spent 183 million yuan repurchasing 12.22 million shares.
The buyback is the main capital-return action directly supporting the stock price.
300 million yuan bet on AI video generation Wangsu plans to invest 300 million yuan for a 4.4% stake in Sand.ai, a company building video-generation models. This moves Wangsu toward the fast-growing AI content market, giving investors a new growth story beyond its core network business and pushing the stock up.
This is the new strategic investment that adds an AI growth narrative to the stock.
Cloudsway stake sale delayed, Hong Kong unit sold The transfer of Wangsu's 42.3% Cloudsway stake was pushed to August 20, and it will sell its Hong Kong Shenjia unit for just $100,000. Delays and asset sales create uncertainty about restructuring, but also simplify the business and remove a non-core unit.
This is the main counterweight — a restructuring delay that could weigh on sentiment.
