IQVIA Holdings Inc. announced solid second-quarter 2026 results with higher revenue, earnings, bookings, and cash flow, increased share repurchases, and raised its full-year 2026 financial guidance.

IQVIA Holdings Inc. reported strong preliminary and unaudited financial results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026, highlighting second-quarter revenue of $4,368 million (up 8.7% year-over-year), GAAP net income of $256 million, and Adjusted EBITDA of $994 million, along with robust growth across its two segments—Commercial Solutions and Research & Development Solutions, which delivered record R&DS net new bookings of $3.15 billion and a 1.22x book-to-bill ratio. The company emphasized improving cash generation with operating cash flow of $558 million and free cash flow of $360 million for the quarter, continued deleveraging with a net leverage ratio of 3.59x, and significant capital returns via $398 million of share repurchases in the quarter and $950 million in the first half of 2026, leaving $2,819 million of remaining authorization. IQVIA also raised its full-year 2026 guidance for revenue to $17,275–$17,475 million, Adjusted EBITDA to $4,000–$4,050 million, and Adjusted Diluted EPS to $12.80–$13.00, driven by stronger organic revenue growth and a higher expected contribution from M&A, partially offset by less favorable foreign exchange impacts. The release reiterates the company’s new two-segment organizational model effective January 1, 2026, provides detailed reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures, outlines its leverage metrics, and includes standard forward-looking statement and non-GAAP use disclaimers.
