Amdocs NASDAQ: DOX reported fiscal third-quarter 2026 revenue of approximately $1.175 billion, up 2.7% from a year earlier on a reported basis and 2.2% in constant currency. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share totaled $1.84, in line with the midpoint of the company’s guidance. President and CEO Shimie Hortig said the quarter reflected “solid financial and operating performance,” while highlighting the company’s strategy to expand its agentic artificial intelligence offerings. Non-GAAP operating margin rose 20 basis points year over year to 21.6%. Get Amdocs alerts: Sign Up GAAP diluted EPS was $0.59, below the company’s prior guided range, due to a restructuring charge of roughly $0.91 per share. CFO Tal Rozenfeld said the charge resulted from accelerating Amdocs’ internal transformation and its strategy to become an “agentic-first” organization. Excluding the restructuring charge, GAAP diluted EPS would have exceeded the guided range, he said. Managed Services Reach Record Revenue Managed services revenue reached a record $791 million during the quarter, representing about 67% of total company revenue and increasing 2.5% from the prior-year period. Hortig said the company continued to see sales momentum for its core products and services, citing customer wins involving Lumen, Telus, Three Scandinavia, Telefônica Vivo, PLDT and Opteck. The company closed the quarter with 12-month backlog of $4.26 billion, up 2.7% from a year earlier but down $20 million sequentially.

During the quarter, the company repurchased $143 million of its shares and paid $60 million in cash dividends. It had $560 million remaining under its share-repurchase authorization at quarter-end.
