Stifel analyst Suthan Sukumar is expanding the firm’s Canada IT services coverage, but says that the firm continues to favor CGI (GIB) as its top pick in IT services given the company’s broad end-to-end capabilities as a global system integrator with a differentiated managed services/IP offering. After having surveyed 50 Canadian C-level/senior executives responsible for about $5B in annual IT spending across several industries, the firm reports that 30% of companies surveyed say they plan to accelerate IT spending into 2024 year-end and greater than 75% of companies expect to increase/sustain spend with IT services vendors. The firm has a Buy rating and C$180 price target on CGI shares.
