Kyndryl Holdings (NYSE: KD) is an IT infrastructure services company that designs, builds, and manages technology environments for enterprise customers. It generates revenue primarily through multi-year managed services contracts, with customer agreements averaging over five years in duration. Kyndryl was formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary of IBM in September 2021 and became an independent publicly traded company on November 3, 2021, following a tax-free spin-off. The company operates across reportable segments including the United States, where it recorded $3.9 billion in revenue for the year ended March 31, 2025, a 10 percent decline from the prior year, reflecting deliberate shedding of low-margin contracts inherited before the spin-off. Services span cloud managed services, security and resiliency, and network and edge, delivered using proprietary automation and AI capabilities that the company reports execute more than 180 million automated actions per month across customer IT environments.
