Remaining Performance Obligations As of September 30, 2023, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $3,883 million, of which approximately 60% is expected to be recognized as revenues within 2 years and approximately 80% is expected to be recognized as revenues within 5 years. Disclosure is not required for performance obligations that meet any of the following criteria: (1) contracts with a duration of one year or less as determined under ASC Topic 606: "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", (2) contracts for which we recognize revenues based on the right to invoice for services performed, (3) variable consideration allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good or service that forms part of a single performance obligation in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-14(b), for which the criteria in ASC 606-10-32-40 have been met, or (4) variable consideration in the form of a sales-based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property. Many of our performance obligations meet one or more of these exemptions and therefore are not included in the remaining performance obligation amount disclosed above. Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses We calculate expected credit losses for trade accounts receivable based on historical credit loss rates for each aging category as adjusted for the current market conditions and forecasts about future economic conditions. The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses for trade accounts receivable for the nine months ended September 30: (in millions) 2023 2022 Beginning balance $ 43 $ 50 Credit loss expense (1) 11 — Write-offs charged against the allowance (18) (11) Ending balance $ 36 $ 39 (1) Reported in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring Charges	In the second quarter of 2023, we initiated the NextGen program aimed at simplifying our operating model, optimizing corporate functions and consolidating and realigning office space to reflect the post-pandemic hybrid work environment. We expect the NextGen program to be completed by the end of 2024. The total costs related to our NextGen program are reported in "Restructuring charges" in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations. We do not allocate these charges to individual segments in internal management reports used by the chief operating decision maker. Accordingly, such expenses are separately disclosed in our segment reporting as “unallocated costs”. See Note 13 .

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	In 2022, we entered int o th e Credit Agreement providing for the $650 million Term Loan and a $1,850 million unsecured revolving credit facility, which are each due to mature in October 2027. We are required under the Credit Agreement to make scheduled quarterly principal payments on the Term Loan beginning in December 2023. The Credit Agreement requires interest to be paid, at our option, at either the Term Benchmark, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR or the ABR Rate (each as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus, in each case, an Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Initially, the Applicable Margin is 0.875% with respect to Term Benchmark loans and RFR loans and 0.00% with respect to ABR loans. Subsequently, the Applicable Margin with respect to Term Benchmark loans and RFR loans will be determined quarterly and may range from 0.75% to 1.125%, depending on our public debt ratings or, if we have not received public debt ratings, from 0.875% to 1.125%, depending on our Leverage Ratio, which is the ratio of indebtedness for borrowed money to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Since issuance of the Term Loan, t he Term Loan has been a Term Benchmark loan. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants as well as a financial covenant. We were in compliance with all debt covenants and representations of the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2023. In March 2023, our India subsidiary renewed its working capital facility at 15 billion I ndian rupe es ($181 million at the September 30, 2023 exchange rate). The facility requires us to repay any balances within 90 days from the date of disbursement. There is a 1.0% prepayment penalty applicable to payments made within 30 days of disbursement. This working capital facility contains affirmative and negative covenants and may be renewed annually. As of September 30, 2023, we have not borrowed funds under this facility or any of its predecessor facilities. Short-term Debt As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $33 million and $8 million, respectively of short-term debt related to current maturities of our Term Loan. Long-term Debt The following table summarizes the long-term debt balances as of: (in millions) September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Term Loan $ 650 $ 650 Less: Current maturities (33) (8) Unamortized deferred financing costs (3) (4) Long-term debt, net of current maturities $ 614 $ 638 The carrying value of our debt approximated its fair value as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Our effective income tax rates were as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2023 2022 2023 2022 Effective income tax rate 26.8 % 22.5 % 23.2 % 23.3 % As previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, in the third quarter of 2022, we recognized an income tax benefit of $36 million related to a specific uncertain tax position that was previously unrecognized in our prior-year consolidated financial statements. The recognition of the benefit in the third quarter of 2022 was based on management’s reassessment regarding whether this unrecognized tax benefit met the more-likely-than-not threshold in light of the lapse in the statute of limitations as to a portion of such benefit. In the second quarter of 2023, we reached a settlement related to U.S. state income taxes resulting in a discrete income tax benefit, which decreased our effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. In the first quarter of 2023, we reached an agreement with the IRS, which settled tax years 2017 and 2018, and recorded a reduction of $42 million to our uncertain tax position balance, which resulted in a $25 million discrete benefit to the provision for income taxes and a $17 million adjustment to our current income tax balance sheet accounts. Tax years that remain subject to examination by the IRS are 2019 onward. We are involved in two separate ongoing disputes with the ITD in connection with previously disclosed share repurchase transactions undertaken by CTS India in 2013 and 2016 to repurchase shares from its shareholders (non-Indian Cognizant entities) valued at $523 million and $2.8 billion, respectively. The 2016 transaction was undertaken pursuant to a plan approved by the High Court in Chennai, India, and resulted in the payment of $135 million in Indian income taxes - an amount we believe includes all the applicable taxes owed for this transaction under Indian law. In March 2018, the ITD asserted that it is owed an additional 33 billion Indian rupees ($398 million at the September 30, 2023 exchange rate) on the 2016 transaction. We deposited 5 billion Indian rupees, representing 15% of the disputed tax amount related to the 2016 transaction, with the ITD. As of each of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the deposit with the ITD was $60 million, presented in "Other noncurrent assets". Additionally, certain time deposits of CTS India were placed under lien in favor of the ITD, representing the remainder of the disputed tax amount. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance of deposits under lien was 30 billion Indian rupees, including previously earned interest, or $356 million and $357 million, respectively, as presented in "Long-term investments". The dispute in relation to the 2013 share repurchase transaction is also in litigation. At this time, the ITD has not made specific demands with regards to the 2013 transaction. In April 2020, we received a formal assessment from the ITD on the 2016 transaction, which is consistent with the ITD's previous assertions. Our appeal was ruled unfavorably by the CITA in March 2022 and by the ITAT in September 2023. We filed an appeal against the order of the ITAT and also applied for a stay on collection of the disputed tax demand before the High Court. The matter is currently pending before the High Court. In addition, the High Court is evaluating whether we will be required to make an additional deposit with the tax authorities to proceed with the appeal and whether the lien on any of the bank deposits of CTS India will be lifted if the additional deposit with the tax authorities is made.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments	In the normal course of business, we use foreign exchange forward and option contracts to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk. Derivatives may give rise to credit risk from the possible non-performance by counterparties. Credit risk is limited to the fair value of those contracts that are favorable to us. We have limited our credit risk by limi ting the amount of credit exposure with any one financial institution and conducting ongoing evaluation of the creditworthiness of the financial institutions with which we do business. In addition, all the assets and liabilities related to the foreign exchange derivative contracts set forth in the below table are subject to master netting arrangements, such as the International Swaps and Derivatives Association Master Agreement, with each individual counterparty. These master netting arrangements generally provide for net settlement of all outstanding contracts with the counterparty in the case of an event of default or a termination event. We have presented all the assets and liabilities related to the foreign exchange derivative contracts, as applicable, on a gross basis, with no offsets, in our unaudited consolidated statements of financial position. There is no financial collateral (including cash collateral) posted or received by us related to the foreign exchange derivative contracts.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	9 Months Ended
Fair Value Measurements	Sep. 30, 2023
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	We measure our cash equivalents, certain investments, contingent consideration liabilities and foreign exchange forward and option contracts at fair value. Fair value is the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing based upon their own market assumptions. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels: • Level 1 – Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 – Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. • Level 3 – Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable. The following table summarizes the financial assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2023: (in millions) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 228 $ — $ — $ 228 Time deposits — 709 — 709 Commercial paper — 85 — 85 Short-term investments: Time deposits — 91 — 91 Equity investment security 10 — — 10 Available-for-sale investment securities: Commercial paper — 60 — 60 Other current assets: Foreign exchange forward and option contracts — 18 — 18 Long-term investments: Restricted time deposits (1) — 356 — 356 Other noncurrent assets Foreign exchange forward contracts — 6 — 6 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities: Foreign exchange forward and option contracts — (15) — (15) Contingent consideration liabilities — — (28) (28) Other noncurrent liabilities: Foreign exchange forward contracts — (1) — (1) (1) See Note 8 . The following table summarizes the financial assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022: (in millions) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 367 $ — $ — $ 367 Time deposits — 359 — 359 Commercial paper — 512 — 512 Short-term investments: Time deposits — 51 — 51 Equity investment security 10 — — 10 Available-for-sale investment securities: Certificates of deposit and commercial paper — 225 — 225 Other current assets: Foreign exchange forward contracts — 5 — 5 Long-term investments: Restricted time deposits (1) — 357 — 357 Other noncurrent assets: Foreign exchange forward contracts — 1 — 1 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities: Foreign exchange forward contracts — (58) — (58) Contingent consideration liabilities — — (9) (9) Other noncurrent liabilities: Foreign exchange forward contracts — (17) — (17) Contingent consideration liabilities — — (13) (13) (1) Se e Note 8 .

The fair value of certificates of deposit and commercial paper is measured based on relevant trade data, dealer quotes, or model-driven valuations using significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data, such as yield curves and credit spreads. The carrying value of the time deposits approximated fair value as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. We estimate the fair value of each foreign exchange forward contract by using a present value of expected cash flows model. This model calculates the difference between the current market forward price and the contracted forward price for each foreign exchange forward contract and applies the difference in the rates to each outstanding contract. The market forward rates include a discount and credit risk factor. We estimate the fair value of each foreign exchange option contract by using a variant of the Black-Scholes model. This model uses present value techniques and reflects the time value and intrinsic value based on observable market rates. We estimate the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities associated with acquisitions using a variation of the income approach, which utilizes one or more significant inputs that are unobservable. This approach calculates the fair value of such liabilities based on the probability-weighted expected performance of the acquired entity against the target performance metric, discounted to present value when appropriate. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022, there were no transfers among Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 financial assets and liabilities.

Commitments and Contingencies	Sep. 30, 2023
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	We are involved in various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We accrue a liability when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When a material loss contingency is reasonably possible but not probable, we do not record a liability, but instead disclose the nature and the amount of the claim, and an estimate of the loss or range of loss, if such an estimate can be made. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. While we do not expect that the ultimate resolution of any existing claims and proceedings (other than the specific matters described below, if decided adversely), individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, an unfavorable outcome in some or all of these proceedings could have a material adverse impact on results of operations or cash flows for a particular period. This assessment is based on our current understanding of relevant facts and circumstances. As such, our view of these matters is subject to inherent uncertainties and may change in the future. On January 15, 2015, Syntel sued TriZetto and Cognizant in the USDC-SDNY. Syntel’s complaint alleged breach of contract against TriZetto, and tortious interference and misappropriation of trade secrets against Cognizant and TriZetto, stemming from Cognizant’s hiring of certain former Syntel employees. Cognizant and TriZetto countersued on March 23, 2015, for breach of contract, misappropriation of trade secrets and tortious interference, based on Syntel’s misuse of TriZetto confidential information and abandonment of contractual obligations. Cognizant and TriZetto subsequently added federal DTSA and copyright infringement claims for Syntel’s misuse of TriZetto’s proprietary technology. The parties’ claims were narrowed by the court and the case was tried before a jury, which on October 27, 2020 returned a verdict in favor of Cognizant in the amount of $855 million, including $570 million in punitive damages. On April 20, 2021, the USDC-SDNY issued a post-trial order that, among other things, affirmed the jury’s award of $285 million in actual damages, but reduced the award of punitive damages from $570 million to $285 million, thereby reducing the overall damages award from $855 million to $570 million. The USDC-SDNY subsequently issued a final judgment consistent with the April 20 th order. On May 26, 2021, Syntel filed a notice of appeal to the Second Circuit, and on June 3, 2021 the USDC-SDNY stayed execution of judgment pending appeal. On May 25, 2023, the Second Circuit issued an opinion affirming in part and vacating in part the judgment of the USDC-SDNY and remanding the case for further proceedings consistent with its opinion. The Second Circuit affirmed the judgment in all respects on liability but vacated the $570 million award that had been based on avoided development costs under the DTSA, and it remanded the case to the USDC-SDNY for further evaluation of damages. On June 23, 2023, the Second Circuit issued its mandate returning the case to the USDC-SDNY, and the proceedings there regarding damages remain ongoing. We will not record any gain in our financial statements until it becomes realizable. On February 28, 2019, a ruling of the SCI interpreting the India Defined Contribution Obligation altered historical understandings of the obligation, extending it to cover additional portions of the employee’s income. As a result, the ongoing contributions of our affected employees and the Company were required to be increased. In the first quarter of 2019, we accrued $117 million with respect to prior periods, assuming retroactive application of the SCI’s ruling, in "Selling, general and administrative e xpenses" in our unaudited consolidated statement of operations. There is significant uncertainty as to how the liability should be calculated as it is impacted by multiple variables, including the period of assessment, the application with respect to certain current and former employees and whether interest and penalties may be assessed. Since the ruling, a variety of trade associations and industry groups have advocated to the Indian government, highlighting the harm to the information technology sector, other industries and job growth in India that would result from a retroactive application of the ruling. It is possible the Indian government will review the matter and there is a substantial question as to whether the Indian government will apply the SCI’s ruling on a retroactive basis. As such, the ultimate amount of our obligation may be materially different from the amount accrued. On October 31, 2016, November 15, 2016 and November 18, 2016, three putative shareholder derivative complaints were filed in New Jersey Superior Court, Bergen County, naming us, all of our then current directors and certain of our current and former officers at that time as defendants. These actions were consolidated in an order dated January 24, 2017. The complaints assert claims for breach of fiduciary duty, corporate waste, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, mismanagement, and/or insider selling by defendants. On April 26, 2017, the New Jersey Superior Court deferred further proceedings by dismissing the consolidated putative shareholder derivative litigation without prejudice but permitting the parties to file a motion to vacate the dismissal in the future. On February 22, 2017, April 7, 2017, May 10, 2017 and March 11, 2019, four additional putative shareholder derivative complaints were filed in the USDC-NJ, naming us and certain of our current and former directors and officers at that time as defendants. These actions were consolidated in an order dated May 14, 2019. On August 3, 2020, lead plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint. The consolidated amended complaint asserts claims similar to those in the previously-filed putative shareholder derivative actions. On February 14, 2022, we and certain of our current and former directors and officers moved to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint. On September 27, 2022, the USDC-NJ granted those motions and dismissed the consolidated amended complaint in its entirety with prejudice. Plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal on October 27, 2022. On June 1, 2021, an eighth putative shareholde r derivative complaint was filed in the USDC-NJ, naming us and certain of our current and former directors and officers at that time a s defendants. The complaint asserts claims similar to those in the previously-filed putative shareholder derivative actions. On March 31, 2022, we and certain of our current and former directors and officers moved to dismiss the complaint. On November 30, 2022, the USDC-NJ denied without prejudice those motions. The USDC-NJ ordered the parties to conduct limited discovery related to the issue of whether our board of directors wrongfully refused the plaintiff’s earlier litigation demand and, after the conclusion of such limited discovery, to file targeted motions for summary judgment on the issue of wrongful refusal. We are presently unable to predict the duration, scope or result of the putative shareholder derivative actions. Although the Company continues to defend the putative shareholder derivative actions vigorously, t hese lawsuits are subject to inherent uncertainties, the actual cost of such litigation will depend upon many unknown factors and the outcome of the litigation is necessarily uncertain. We have indemnification and expense advancement obligations pursuant to our bylaws and indemnification agreements with respect to certain current and former members of senior management and the Company’s board of directors. In connection with the matters that were the subject of our previously disclosed internal investigation, the DOJ and SEC investigations and the related litigation, we have received and expect to continue to receive requests under such indemnification agreements and our bylaws to provide funds for legal fees and other expenses. There are no amounts remaining available to us under applicable insurance policies for our ongoing indemnification and advancement obligations with respect to certain of our current and former officers and directors or incremental legal fees and other expenses related to the above matters. See Note 8 for information relating to the ITD Dispute. Many of our engagements involve projects that are critical to the operations of our clients’ business and provide benefits that are difficult to quantify. Any failure in a client’s systems or our failure to meet our contractual obligations to our clients, including any breach involving a client’s confidential information or sensitive data, or our obligations under applicable laws or regulations could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure. Although we attempt to contractually limit our liability for damages arising from negligent acts, errors, mistakes, or omissions in rendering our services, there can be no assurance that the limitations of liability set forth in our contracts will be enforceable in all instances or will otherwise protect us from liability for damages. Although we have general liability insurance coverage, including coverage for errors or omiss ions, we retain a significant portion of risk through our insurance deductibles and the re can be no assurance that such coverage will cover all types of claims, continue to be available on reasonable terms or will be available in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims, or that the insurer will not disclaim coverage as to any future claim. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against us that exceed or are not covered by our insurance coverage or changes in our insurance policies, including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows for a particular period.

Segment Information

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	We have seven industry-based operating segments, which are aggregated into four reportable business segments: • Financial Services, which consists of the banking and insurance operating segments; • Health Sciences, which consists of a single operating segment of the same name; • Products and Resources, which consists of the retail and consumer goods; manufacturing, logistics, energy, and utilities; and travel and hospitality operating segments; and • Communications, Media and Technology, which consists of a single operating segment of the same name. Our segments are industry-based, and as such, we report revenue from clients in the segment with which our clients are most closely aligned. Our client partners, account executives and client relationship managers are aligned in accordance with the specific industries they serve. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates the Company's performance and allocates resources based on segment revenues and operating profit. Segment operating profit is defined as income from operations before unallocated costs. Generally, operating expenses for each operating segment have similar characteristics and are subject to the same factors, pressures and challenges. However, the economic environment and its effects on industries served by the operating segments may affect revenues and operating expenses to differing degrees. In the first quarter of 2023, we made certain changes to the internal measurement of segment operating profit for the purpose of evaluating segment performance and resource allocation. The primary reason for the change was to reflect a more complete cost of delivery. Specifically, segment operating profit now includes an allocation of both SG&A costs related to our integrated practices and the excess or shortfall of incentive-based compensation for commercial and delivery employees as compared to target, which were previously included in "unallocated costs." We have reported 2023 segment operating profits using the new allocation methodology and have recast the 2022 results to conform to the new methodology. Corporate expenses, expenses related to our NextGen program, a portion of depreciation and amortization and the impact of the settlements of the cash flow hedges are not allocated to individual segments in internal management reports used by the chief operating decision maker. Accordingly, such expenses are excluded from segment operating profit and are included below as “unallocated costs” and adjusted against our total income from operations. Additionally, we do not disclose assets by segment as a significant portion of the assets is used interchangeably among the segments and the chief operating decision maker does not review such information. For revenues by reportable segment and geographic area, see Note 2 . Segment operating profits by reportable segment were as follows for the three and nine months ended September 30: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended (in millions) 2023 2022 2023 2022 Financial Services $ 283 $ 347 $ 862 $ 992 Health Sciences 330 318 1,009 912 Products and Resources 256 284 719 783 Communications, Media and Technology 167 195 464 586 Total segment operating profit 1,036 1,144 3,054 3,273 Less: unallocated costs 350 346 1,089 991 Income from operations $ 686 $ 798 $ 1,965 $ 2,282 Geographic Area Information Long-lived assets by geographic area are as follows: As of (in millions) September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Long-lived Assets: (1) North America (2) $ 339 $ 354 Europe 90 86 Rest of World (3) 619 661 Total $ 1,048 $ 1,101 (1) Long-lived assets include property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization.
