IBM Boosts Forecast on AI and Red Hat
International Business Machines (NYSE:IBM) reported 2Q 2025 earnings on July 23, 2025, delivering $17 billion in revenue and $4.8 billion in first-half free cash flow, driven by standout software and infrastructure gains. The company raised its full-year free cash flow outlook to above $13.5 billion and affirmed revenue growth guidance above 5%, supported by double-digit Red Hat growth, robust automation, and surging AI-related bookings. Key insights below highlight IBM's accelerating software momentum, transformation in productivity, and expanding AI footprint. Red Hat and automation fuel IBM software acceleration Red Hat contributed 3.5 percentage points of organic software growth, while automation grew 15% in the first half of 2025, and HashiCorp delivered a strong initial performance following its acquisition. OpenShift achieved $1.7 billion in annual recurring revenue (ARR), and Red Hat's virtualization pipeline grew by over $300 million in total bookings through the first three quarters. "OpenShift growing revenue more than 20% with ARR now at $1.7 billion. Automation grew 14%, with HashiCorp off to a strong start … We accelerated our Red Hat performance first quarter, second quarter by an incremental point, now growing about 14.5% … our pipeline in the second half is 3x last year across our entire automation portfolio with regards to HashiCorp." -- Jim Kavanaugh, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer This sustained outperformance in hybrid cloud and automation positions IBM to deliver near-double-digit software revenue growth for FY2025 at constant currency, non-GAAP, driving a favorable long-term revenue mix shift and expanding recurring revenue base. IBM productivity transformation expands margins and financial flexibility IBM expanded its operating gross profit margin by 230 basis points, reflecting disciplined execution and productivity initiatives including embedding AI into workflows and optimizing the supply chain by moving distributed infrastructure manufacturing to a strategic partner. IBM exited 2024 with $3.5 billion in annual run rate savings and now expects to reach $4.5 billion by the end of 2025, fueling further margin expansion and cash flow conversion. "We are taking up the year on our productivity initiatives. We exited last year, we talked about $3.5 billion of productivity that we've been able to fundamentally drive out of this business … that's given us guidance and confidence to raise that to $4.5 billion. That flows to operating margin. We're taking our operating margins up from a half a point to now roughly a point … and then we're flowing that all the way down through the cash flow. High quality, sustainable cash flow generation." -- Jim Kavanaugh, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Escalating productivity-driven savings provide IBM with headroom for strategic M&A and ongoing innovation investment. AI portfolio and ecosystem drive differentiated growth at scale IBM's cumulative Gen AI book of business surpassed $7.5 billion since inception, with AI now surpassing 10% of consulting revenue at a more than three-point margin premium compared to non-AI work. Over 150 prebuilt agents and deep partnerships with Oracle, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Salesforce, and others are embedding Watson x solutions across customer workflows, while unique offerings like Code Assistant for z and the newly launched z17 mainframe further strengthen IBM's competitive position in scalable enterprise AI. "Our Gen AI book of business now stands at over $7.5 billion inception to date, with momentum accelerating quarter over quarter. We are seeing strong demand for our AI agents and assistants, REL AI, Granite Models, as well as an accelerating need for our consulting services to deploy AI. Just last week, IBM was recognized as an emerging leader in the first-ever Gartner emerging market quadrant for Gen AI consulting and implementation services." -- Arvind Krishna, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer IBM's leadership in enterprise-scale AI and its partner ecosystem create a powerful flywheel effect, deepening client engagement and underpinning the company's long-term secular growth thesis in AI-powered automation and hybrid cloud environments. Looking Ahead For the full year, IBM reaffirmed constant currency revenue growth of 5% plus (non-GAAP) and raised free cash flow guidance above $13.5 billion. Management expects software to approach double-digit revenue growth, with Red Hat growth in the mid-teens and low-single-digit gains in transaction processing are expected as the z17 mainframe cycle accelerates. Operating pre-tax margin is now expected to expand by about one point for the full year, and IBM is comfortable with consensus expectations for revenue and profit.

Wedbush's Ives raises stock price target on this 'AI winner'
-- Wedbush analyst Dan Ives raised his price target on IBM (NYSE:IBM) shares to $325 from $300, a move driven by increased confidence in the company's position as a major beneficiary of the AI revolution. IBM remains one of Wedbush's top software picks and is featured on its 'IVES AI 30' list, which focuses on "AI winners." 'We believe IBM is still under owned and in the early stages of a renaissance of growth with AI the key driver,' Ives said in a Friday report. Despite a strong run so far in 2025, Ives sees further upside tied to the company's expanding AI and cloud initiatives, reiterating an Outperform rating on the stock. The analyst pointed to IBM's $6 billion-plus generative AI book of business as a foundational strength. The company now supports over 70 AI-infused workflows across areas such as sales, finance, and marketing. Growth is also underpinned by demand for Red Hat and HashiCorp (NASDAQ:HCP) products. Wedbush noted that IBM's hybrid cloud and AI architecture enables continuous innovation, with three-quarters of AI expected to run on containers by 2027. Furthermore, Wedbush's checks suggest continued momentum across IBM's AI agents and WatsonX platform. The broker said customers are increasingly turning to IBM to build and scale AI use cases, while overall buying behavior remains stable. 'The company continues to note that it has not seen any changes in customer buying behavior across its product portfolio,' the analysts wrote. Looking ahead, IBM is also investing in quantum computing. Its roadmap includes the Quantum Starling system and the upcoming Quantum Nighthawk chip, both aimed at enhancing fault tolerance and connectivity. While still early, Ives sees IBM's efforts as part of a broader strategy to lead in a multi-billion-dollar quantum computing market. 'We believe that IBM is well-positioned to capitalize on the current demand shift for hybrid and AI applications with more enterprises looking to implement AI for productivity gains and drive long-term profitable growth,' the note concluded.

IBM's Software Segment Growth Picks Up: A Sign of More Upside?
International Business Machines Corporation 's IBM Software segment is increasingly gaining traction with an increasing demand for a focused portfolio that provides end-to-end hybrid cloud and AI capabilities. The segment revenues in the first quarter of 2025 increased to $6.34 billion from $5.9 billion a year ago, driven by growth in Hybrid Platform & Solutions, Red Hat, Automation, Data & AI and Transaction Processing, backed by a strong focus on product innovation. The buyout of California-based software company HashiCorp Inc. for an enterprise value of $6.4 billion has brought powerful synergies across key strategic growth areas of IBM, such as Red Hat, watsonx and IT Automation solutions. HashiCorp's tools, Terraform and Vault, have been integrated with IBM's Red Hat platforms to enhance cloud infrastructure management and hybrid cloud security, including for IBM Z. The addition of the new cutting-edge products has significantly improved IBM Software's ability to help organizations optimize IT spending, reduce cloud costs and boost overall efficiency through automation. With a surge in traditional cloud-native workloads and associated applications, along with a rise in generative AI deployment, there is a radical expansion in the number of cloud workloads that enterprises are currently managing. This has resulted in heterogeneous, dynamic and complex infrastructure strategies, which, in turn, have led firms to undertake a cloud-agnostic and interoperable approach to highly secure multi-cloud management. Our revenue estimate for the segment is pegged at $7.52 billion, indicating year-over-year growth of 11.6% at constant currency. Much of this growth is expected to come from Hybrid Cloud businesses (up 23% to $1.9 billion) and Automation (up 15.4% to $1.87 billion). Other Blue-Chip Tech Firms Focusing on Hybrid Cloud Microsoft Corporation MSFT has doubled down on the cloud computing opportunity. Azure's increased availability in more than 60 announced regions globally has strengthened Microsoft's competitive position in the cloud computing market. Operating through a vast network of global data centers that ensure high availability and reliability for applications, Azure offers seamless access to all the services included in the portal once customers subscribe to it. Subscribers can use these services to create cloud-based resources, such as virtual machines and databases, which can then be assembled into running environments used to host workloads and store data. Inc. AMZN enjoys a dominant position in the cloud-computing market, particularly in the IaaS space, thanks to Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is one of its high-margin-generating businesses. AWS is the world's most comprehensive and broadly adopted on-demand cloud computing platform, offering more than 200 fully featured services from data centers globally. Millions of customers, including the fastest-growing startups, largest enterprises and leading government agencies, are using AWS to lower costs, become more agile and innovate faster. It reportedly offers the widest variety of databases that are purpose-built for different types of applications to enable subscribers to choose the right tool for the job. IBM's Price Performance, Valuation and Estimates IBM has surged 60.7% over the past year compared with no change for the industry. From a valuation standpoint, IBM trades at a forward price-to-sales ratio of 3.74, above the industry.

HashiCorp Expands Unified Lifecycle Management for Hybrid Cloud Operations
LONDON, June 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today at HashiDays London, its first international user conference as an IBM company, HashiCorp unveiled the vision for partnering with IBM to shape the future of hybrid cloud automation. Despite widespread adoption, most enterprises have not reached cloud maturity — out of the 94% using cloud services, only 20% are receiving full ROI. IBM estimates that one billion new AI applications will emerge by 2028, driving greater cloud complexity and forcing enterprises to make critical decisions about their hybrid cloud strategies. Together with IBM's software automation portfolio, HashiCorp is delivering the automated hybrid cloud platform that unifies infrastructure and security workflows, reduces complexity, and enhances visibility and control. At HashiDays London, HashiCorp announced new products and integrations that expand the capabilities of its Infrastructure Cloud across Infrastructure and Security Lifecycle Management (ILM and SLM) to help organizations automate hybrid infrastructure delivery, reduce operational risk, and improve security posture throughout the entire application lifecycle. "I'm excited to welcome our global community to HashiDays 2025, where we are sharing our vision for how HashiCorp and IBM will work together to build an automated hybrid cloud platform,' said Armon Dadgar, CTO and Co-Founder, HashiCorp. 'With this vision, we'll deliver a unified control plane that powers hybrid applications, embedding policy, automation, and observability into every layer of the stack, so enterprises can modernize securely, streamline operations, and unlock AI-driven automation at scale.' For more than 10 years, HashiCorp has helped thousands of customers across every geography and industry do cloud right. At HashiDays, customers from EMEA and APAC, including BT Group, Helvetia Insurance, HTX, InfoCert, shiftavenue, Trust Bank, SPH Media, and more, are sharing stories of how they manage cloud infrastructure and security with HashiCorp. Infrastructure Lifecycle Management As customers scale their hybrid strategies with IBM and HashiCorp, Infrastructure Lifecycle Management (ILM) continues to be a foundational priority. From building landing zones to enabling secure Day 2+ automation, organizations are using ILM to drive faster delivery and infrastructure resilience across teams and environments. Helvetia Insurance | How Terraform supported an ambitious cloud migration Founded in 1858 and headquartered in St. Gallen, Switzerland, Helvetia Insurance Group is a major player in the European insurance market. A few years ago, the cloud enablement team started a complete migration from on-premises datacenters to the public cloud. The ambitious goal: move 200 applications to AWS and Azure within one year. Using HashiCorp Terraform, Helvetia's cloud enablement team created landing zones — fully configured cloud accounts with connectivity and policies — for its internal product teams. They then collaborated with a partner to build modules for hardened virtual machines and other critical resources allowing them to follow a lift-and-shift approach, expediting the migration without sacrificing security or governance. "Terraform was instrumental in achieving our migration goals. Without it, moving 200 applications in about a year would have been impossible. Our teams now have the tools to work faster and with greater confidence," said Matthias Mertens, Cloud Solution Architect, Helvetia Insurance. HashiCorp's ILM capabilities help platform and operations teams accelerate delivery, enforce policy, and optimize infrastructure from Day 0 to Day N. Today's announcements expand support for secure, policy-enforced infrastructure delivery with new features across Terraform, Packer, Nomad, and Waypoint. These updates automate critical workflows that improve team productivity and infrastructure resilience throughout the full lifecycle. Build: Define and provision infrastructure in a standardized, scalable way to avoid configuration drift and manual rework. Terraform ephemeral resources (GA): Protect sensitive values from persisting in state files Sentinel policy library for AWS (GA): Enforce secure-by-default configurations with pre-written policies Terraform + Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform: Enable orchestration of complex infrastructure workflows with end-to-end infrastructure as code Deploy: Enable repeatable, secure, and policy-aligned delivery of applications and environments. HCP Waypoint actions (GA): Offer Day 2+ lifecycle workflows like rollback and restart, exposed through UI or CLI, to provide an internal developer platform that shields users from the underlying infrastructure complexity Manage: Monitor, update, and deprecate infrastructure components securely and efficiently across teams and environments. HCP module revocation: Prevent use of revoked modules in HCP Terraform as part of module lifecycle management HCP Terraform Premium SKU: Unlock advanced governance and private VCS support Dynamic host volumes (Nomad): Enable more flexible, scalable provisioning of persistent storage across Nomad clients, essential for stateful workloads that require resilient storage operations in dynamic environments Terraform provider for IBM Z: Empower organizations to integrate their mainframe platforms into modern workflows and hybrid cloud strategies Security Lifecycle Management As organizations modernize their infrastructure, their security surface area grows, along with the need to continuously inspect, protect, and govern sensitive data. Security Lifecycle Management (SLM) ensures that identity-based security, secrets management, and access governance are built directly into hybrid workflows, rather than bolted on after deployment. IG Group | Strengthened security while accelerating delivery with HCP Vault 'As a security leader, my job is to reduce risk for my company without slowing down our development teams,' said Andrew Blooman, Platform Security Team Lead, IG Group. 'Over the past few years, HashiCorp has helped us achieve these goals as we adopted multiple products for a number of use cases. We started with Community Edition versions of Vault, Nomad, and Consul, used HashiCorp Professional Services to accelerate this deployment, and added HCP Vault this year. We now have 63 teams onboarded to HCP Vault, with a centralized GitOps workflow allowing for version control, change approvals, and an audit log of newly onboarded teams.' HashiCorp's SLM capabilities help security and compliance teams safeguard sensitive data, enforce access policies, and maintain governance from Day 0 through Day N. These updates provide proactive tools for visibility, access control, and cryptographic assurance across hybrid environments, and reflect continued investment in helping teams move faster without compromising control. Inspect: Identify and address potential security gaps before infrastructure or applications reach production. HCP Vault Radar (GA): Detect and remediate unmanaged secrets and credential sprawl across environments Consul 1.21 (GA): Simplify external service monitoring architecture for enhanced observability and service registration in complex environments Protect: Enforce identity-based access and secure application communication across environments. Boundary transparent sessions (GA): Provide secure access to systems without altering user workflows Vault and Consul integrations for Red Hat OpenShift: Streamline secure access across containerized workloads Bring your own DNS to HCP Vault Dedicated: Improve connectivity and security posture in regulated environments, available now in AWS and coming soon to Azure Govern: Automate governance of credentials, policies, and encryption standards across systems and teams. Vault Enterprise 1.19: Includes post-quantum cryptography updates, constrained certificate authorities, and automated root password rotation Together with IBM, HashiCorp is delivering the unified lifecycle foundation that modern enterprises need to scale securely and confidently in a hybrid world. Recent announcements, including Terraform Enterprise support for IBM Z and Vault Enterprise support for IBM Z and LinuxONE, bring HashiCorp's ILM and SLM expertise to the mainframe, further enabling hybrid cloud automation that stretches from on-premises to private and public cloud.
