The volatility is real as Uber shifts from a light software model to a capital-heavy utility. While a $966M Dutch fine and $10B AV commitment weigh on the stock, operating income grew 30% last quarter.
The big test is whether they can bridge the 300bps gap between bookings and revenue while fighting off subsidized rivals in Brazil. It’s a transition from high-margin tech to global infrastructure, which rarely happens without some turbulence.

TCS is attempting a "Trojan Horse" strategy—using AI-led productivity to win renewals and then pivoting those to outcome-based models. With a $2.3B AI run rate, they’re moving past the hype, but the transition from "effort" to "outcome" remains lumpy as legacy clients often resist price decoupling.
The real test is the FY27 inflection point. If they can reach that "net accretive" stage, they’ll successfully decouple revenue from headcount. Until then, localized high-touch delivery (like the 5k UK jobs) suggests a hybrid model is still necessary.
Do you think clients will easily accept sharing the risk in these new value-based contracts?
