The common-size income statement reveals several noteworthy trends in the company’s financial performance over the analyzed period. Revenues are consistently represented as 100% by definition, allowing for a clear view of the proportional changes in other income statement items. Cost of services generally fluctuates between approximately 66% and 70% of revenues, exhibiting some variability but remaining a significant expense. Gross profit, consequently, moves inversely, generally ranging from 30% to 33% of revenues.

Profitability
Operating income demonstrates a generally positive trend, increasing from around 13% to 16% of revenues between November 2019 and November 2021. However, it experienced a decline to approximately 12% in the fiscal year 2022 before recovering to around 13-16% in subsequent periods. Net income attributable to Accenture plc follows a similar pattern, ranging from approximately 8.6% to 12.8% of revenues. A dip is observed in fiscal year 2023, followed by a recovery in the latter quarters. Interest income as a percentage of revenues is relatively small but shows an increasing trend, peaking at 0.65% before decreasing again. Interest expense remains consistently low, generally below 0.15% of revenues. Other income (expense), net, is volatile, with both positive and negative impacts on overall profitability, but generally remains a small percentage of revenues.
Operating Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses consistently represent around 9% to 11% of revenues, with a slight upward trend observed in recent periods. General and administrative costs remain relatively stable, typically between 6% and 7% of revenues. The introduction of “Business optimization costs” in February 2023, initially at 1.55% of revenues, increased significantly to 2.95% in May 2023 before decreasing to 0.47% by February 2024 and then increasing again to 3.50% in May 2024. This suggests a significant restructuring or cost-saving initiative with fluctuating impact.

Tax expense as a percentage of revenues generally falls between 2% and 4%, with fluctuations aligning with changes in pre-tax income. A notable event is the “Loss on disposition of Russia business” recorded in May 2022, representing 0.60% of revenues. Overall, the company demonstrates a relatively stable cost structure with some fluctuations driven by specific events and strategic initiatives. The recent periods show a recovery in profitability metrics after a dip in fiscal year 2023, suggesting successful implementation of strategies to improve financial performance.
