Read MoreHide Full Article
Accenture plc (ACN - Free Report) has announced that it has acquired Madrid, Spain-based engineering services firm Arca for an undisclosed amount.
Addition of Arca’s 640 employees to Accenture will strengthen the company’s 5G deployment and network operations capabilities in Spain and Portugal.
Founded in 1988, Arca offers multidisciplinary services for network operations pertaining to engineering, designing, deployment and management of telecom infrastructure. These services are backed by an integrated platform that helps in automation of network monitoring, optimization of processes and prediction of system anomalies.
Accenture Eyes 5G Cloud Network Transformation
The buyout is expected to strengthen Accenture’s position as a key partner for design, engineering, roll-out and operation of voice, data, video, fixed, mobile, 5G and IoT services for clients especially in the industrial, energy, telecommunications and infrastructure industries.
The integration of Arca’s capabilities with Accenture’s SynOps platform is expected to enhance Accenture’s ability to enhance operating models for its clients.
So far this year, shares of Accenture have gained 16.9%, ahead of 13.9% growth of the industry it belongs to, and 10.7% rally of the Zacks S&P 500 composite.
Zacks Rank and Stocks to Consider
Accenture currently carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
Long-term earnings (three to five years) growth rate for Republic Services, Gartner and Insperity is estimated at 9.4%, 13.5% and 15%, respectively.
Biggest Tech Breakthrough in a Generation
Be among the early investors in the new type of device that experts say could impact society as much as the discovery of electricity. Current technology will soon be outdated and replaced by these new devices. In the process, it’s expected to create 22 million jobs and generate $12.3 trillion in activity.
A select few stocks could skyrocket the most as rollout accelerates for this new tech. Early investors could see gains similar to buying Microsoft in the 1990s. Zacks’ just-released special report reveals 8 stocks to watch. The report is only available for a limited time.
