What the filing says
Korn Ferry reported Q1 FY'27 fee revenue of $756.5M (up 7% YoY), with net income of $69.0M and adjusted diluted EPS of $1.43 (up 9% YoY). The company completed its acquisition of AMS on September 1, 2026, which CEO Burnison describes as meaningfully expanding Workforce Solutions. Integration costs totaled $7.6M in Q1. Q2 FY'27 guidance: fee revenue $860M–$878M; adjusted EBITDA margin 16.8%–17.2%; adjusted diluted EPS $1.30–$1.40 (including two months of AMS contribution).
Why this rating
AMS acquisition is material—expands core segment, but modest 7% organic growth and 30bps margin headwind from integration costs temper enthusiasm. Relative to $2.9B market cap and company scale, meaningful but not transformational.
