On November 7, 2018, Conduent disclosed that the Company had suffered reduced third quarter and projected fourth quarter operating results caused by “continued suboptimal performance from an inherited legacy technology vendor.”  Specifically, Conduent advised investors that “[t]he performance issue stem[s] from the vendor’s inability to deliver on level agreements, lack of responsiveness to Conduent’s needs, and poorly structured contract which we inherited” and that an “outdated and historically under-invested legacy IT infrastructure has caused major disruptions to our operations and impacted clients and delivery performance.” 

Following these disclosures, Conduent’s stock price fell $5.60 per share, or 29.14%, to close at $13.62 per share on November 7, 2018.
