Research Alert: Ingr: Tough Start To Year As Operational Disruptions Continue; Guidance Cut
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:INGR delivered disappointing Q1 results with adj. EPS of $2.34 (-21% Y/Y), missing consensus by $0.13, while net sales declined 1% to $1,792M, in line with expectations. Adj. operating income dropped 22% to $212M, with the Food & Industrial Ingredients - U.S./CAN segment particularly weak as operating income plunged 63% to $34M due to ongoing Argo facility disruptions. The company cut its 2026 outlook, now expecting adj. EPS of $10.45-$11.15 (from $11.00-$11.80) and net sales flat to up low single digits. Management indicated the Argo facility recovery has taken longer than expected following the 2025 thermal event, with sequential improvement anticipated in Q2 2026 and a return to normal operations targeted for H2 2026. We are disappointed with the results as our expectation was that the Argo facility issues would have been resolved by now, though we expect gradual improvement as operational challenges normalize in the second half.

Research Alert: It: Growth Metrics Fight Off Deceleration But Remain Stuck; Margins Impress
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:IT reported Q1 2026 sales of $1.51B (-1.5% Y/Y, -4.3% ex-FX), near consensus of $1.52B, with Insights (87% of total) flat Y/Y to continue a deceleration from +1% in Q4 and +4% in Q3. Non-GAAP EPS of $3.32 (+11%) beat Street estimates of $2.92, helped by Insights contribution margin expanding 110 bps Q/Q to 78.2% and strong buyback activity of $535M. Global CV growth remains stuck, growing by just 1.0% Y/Y to $5.3B, but these results improved from 0.8% in Q4, reversing a multi-quarter deceleration. We expect CV growth to improve from here on AskGartner momentum. Wallet retention of 77.7% (+20 bps Q/Q, -530 bps Y/Y) and Client retention of 85.0% (-30 bps Q/Q, +60 bps Y/Y) were largely unchanged Q/Q. FY 26 sales guidance was revised from >$6.455B to >$6.405B (-1% Y/Y), with Q1's weak Consulting results (-17%) contributing the entirety of the reduction, which may spook investors worried about AI competition. Still, IT raised its EPS forecast to >$13.25 (flat Y/Y) from >$12.30 prior, providing decent support.
