“During the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenues in Software & Hi-Tech grew 43.2% primarily due to increased demand at a large hardware client and several technology services clients.”

“During the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenues in Consumer Goods, Retail & Travel grew 7.7% primarily due to improved demand from clients in the retail and consumer goods industries.”
