Accenture explores sale of Greater China operations for up to $1.5 billion

Accenture is weighing a divestiture of its Greater China business, which includes mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and could fetch as much as $1.5 billion. The firm has hired JPMorgan to conduct a strategic review and may keep a minority stake in the unit. It also reiterated its forecast for 2027 revenue growth of 3%‑6%, above analyst expectations.

The potential sale could reshape Accenture’s revenue mix and affect its valuation, while the 3%‑6% 2027 growth outlook may influence investor sentiment. The company’s own guidance suggests the divestiture would not impair its growth targets.
