CI&T Reports 19.3% Organic Revenue Growth in 4Q25 Results

New York - March 11, 2026 - CI&T (NYSE: CINT, “Company”), a global partner in tech-integrated business solutions, today announces its results for the fourth quarter of 2025 (4Q25) and full year of 2025 (2025) in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS® Accounting Standards), as issued by the IASB. For comparison purposes, we refer to the results for the fourth quarter of 2024 (4Q24) and the full year of 2024 (2024). The numbers are presented in U.S. dollars.

Fourth quarter of 2025 (4Q25) highlights

Full-year ended on December 31, 2025 (2025) highlights

Cesar Gon, founder and CEO of CI&T, commented, “2025 was a defining year for CI&T. We just delivered our fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit organic growth, strong cash generation, and clear evidence that our clients are moving from AI experimentation to full-scale transformation — with CI&T as their strategic partner. Our depth in AI is helping clients move faster and compete differently, turning technology investment into measurable business results. This momentum supports our confidence in 2026, where we expect 14% organic revenue growth year-over-year at the midpoint of our guidance.”

Comments on the 4Q25 financial performance

Revenue reached US$134.3 million in 4Q25, a 19.3% increase from US$112.5 million in 4Q24, or a 13.9% growth at constant currency. In 4Q25, revenue among our top 10 clients grew 20.6% compared to the same period in 2024. Revenue from our main geographies, Latin America and the US, expanded by 35% and 12%, respectively, compared to the same period in the prior year. This quarter was CI&T’s fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit organic revenue growth.

The cost of services provided was US$91.0 million in 4Q25, a 25.2% increase from 4Q24, driven by higher employee expenses, mainly due to additional billable headcount, and unfavorable foreign exchange rate in the period. Gross profit was US$43.3 million, an 8.5% increase compared to 4Q24. Adjusted gross profit reached US$45.4 million in 4Q25, compared to US$42.1 million in the 4Q24, and adjusted gross profit margin was 33.8% in 4Q25.

Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) and other operating expenses totaled US$25.0 million in 4Q25, a 5.6% increase compared to 4Q24, primarily driven by higher amortization expenses, mainly associated with the investments in CI&T Flow, our AI management system.

Adjusted EBITDA reached US$24.8 million in 4Q25, a 11.6% increase from US$22.2 million in 4Q24. In 4Q25, the adjusted EBITDA margin was 18.4%.

Net finance costs totaled US$2.6 million in 4Q25, reflecting a 23.6% decrease compared to 4Q24, mainly due to positive net derivative results associated with interest rate swap instruments used to manage the interest rate exposure of our debt.

Income tax expense was US$1.2 million in 4Q25, a 50.3% decrease from 4Q24, mainly due to the utilization of R&D tax incentives and the recognition of deferred tax assets on tax losses in New Markets. As a result, the effective income tax rate was 7%. Income taxes paid in the quarter were US$0.8 million, equivalent to a cash tax rate of 6.0%.

Profit was US$14.6 million in 4Q25, up 38.6% from 4Q24. Adjusted profit was US$18.7 million, an increase of 41.8% compared to 4Q24, with an adjusted profit margin of 14.0%. In 4Q25, diluted EPS was US$0.11, a 44.6% increase from 4Q24. Adjusted diluted EPS were US$0.14, up 48.0% compared to the same period in the prior year.

Comments on the 2025 financial performance

Revenue reached US$489.6 million, a 11.5% increase compared to US$439.0 million in 2024, or a 13.2% growth at constant currency. Revenue from our top 10 clients grew 16.5% year over year. By geography, revenue grew by 26.8% in Latin America, and 9.2% in North America compared to 2024.

The cost of services provided was US$333.1 million in 2025, a 15.4% increase from 2024, driven by higher employee expenses, attributed to additional billable headcount and the gradual resumption of payroll taxes in Brazil. Gross profit was US$156.6 million, a 4.2% increase compared to 2024. Adjusted gross profit reached US$165.4 million, compared to US$160.1 million, and adjusted gross profit margin reached 33.8% in 2025.

Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) and other operating expenses totaled US$91.0 million in 2025, a 3.9% decrease from 2024, driven by operational efficiency gains led by AI initiatives in back-office areas, combined with non-recurring restructuring expenses in 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA reached US$89.4 million in 2025, a 9.1% increase from US$82.0 million in 2024. In 2025, the adjusted EBITDA margin was 18.3% from 18.7% in 2024.

Income tax expense was US$15.5 million in 2025, an 8.6% increase from 2024, reflecting higher profit before income tax. The increase in tax expense was lower than the growth in pre-tax profit due to R&D tax incentives and the recognition of deferred tax assets from tax losses in New Markets. As a result, the effective income tax rate decreased to 28% in 2025, compared to 33% in 2024. Income taxes paid in the year were US$8.4 million, equivalent to a cash tax rate of 15%.

Profit was US$40.6 million in 2025, up 37.7% from 2024. Adjusted profit was US$51.9 million, an increase of 16.9% compared to 2024, with an adjusted profit margin of 10.6%. In 2025, diluted EPS was US$0.30, a 41.5% increase from 2024. Adjusted diluted EPS were US$0.39, up 20.1% compared to the same period last year.

Cash generated from operating activities was US$81.2 million in 2025, a 5.1% decrease from US$85.6 million in 2024. This change was primarily due to higher working capital requirements, specifically an increase in accounts receivable and contract assets resulting from accelerated revenue growth.

Business Outlook

We expect our revenue for the first quarter of 2026 to be at least US$134.7 million, representing a 21.5% increase compared to US$110.9 million in 1Q25. This reflects a 14.3% growth on a constant currency basis year-over-year.

For the full year of 2026, we expect our revenue to be in the range of US$548.4 million to US$568.0 million, implying 12.0% to 16.0% organic revenue growth year-over-year. This expected growth includes a positive FX impact of around 300 basis points. In addition, we estimate our Adjusted EBITDA margin to be in the range of 17.0% to 19.0%.

These estimates assume an average FX rate of 5.29 BRL/USD in 1Q26 and 5.30 BRL/USD in 2026.

These expectations are forward-looking statements, and actual results may differ materially. See "Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements" below.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

We regularly monitor certain financial and operating metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections, and make strategic decisions. These non-IFRS financial measures include Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Profit, Adjusted Profit Margin, Revenue at Constant Currency, and Adjusted Diluted EPS. They should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, but not as substitutes for results under IFRS Accounting Standards. In addition, our calculation of these non-IFRS financial measures may differ from those used by other companies, and therefore, comparability may be limited. These non-IFRS financial measures are provided as additional information to enhance investors’ understanding of our operations’ historical and current financial performance.

CI&T is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking non-IFRS Revenue at Constant Currency and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to the most directly comparable IFRS measure because it cannot reasonably predict the outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable efforts. These items include, but are not limited to, share-based compensation expenses, the tax effect of non-IFRS measures, foreign currency exchange gains/losses, and other items. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on our IFRS-reported results for the guidance period.

We calculate Revenue at Constant Currency by translating Revenue from entities reporting in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates from the prior period to show changes in our revenue without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations.

In calculating Adjusted Gross Profit, we exclude cost components unrelated to the direct management of our services. For the periods presented, the adjustments applied were: (i) depreciation and amortization related to the costs of services provided and (ii) share-based compensation expenses.

In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude components unrelated to the direct management of our services. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented as Profit, plus net finance costs, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, plus: (i) share-based compensation expenses; (ii) acquisition-related expenses: present value adjustment on accounts payable for business acquired, and retention packages; (iii) business restructuring expenses related to the optimization of our global delivery model based on our nearshoring strategy in 2024; and (iv) government grants related to tax reimbursement in our Chinese subsidiary in 2024.

In calculating Adjusted Profit and Adjusted Diluted EPS, we exclude components unrelated to the direct management of our services. For the periods presented, the adjustments have been made for (i) share-based compensation expenses; (ii) acquisition-related expenses: amortization of intangible assets from acquired companies, present value adjustment on accounts payable for business acquired, and retention packages; (iii) business restructuring expenses related to the optimization of our global delivery model based on our nearshoring strategy in 2024; and (iv) the tax effects of non-IFRS adjustments.
