REUTERS - Accenture Plc reported a 1.5 percent rise in quarterly revenue, helped by strong growth in its high-margin consulting business, particularly in North America.
Net income fell to $858.5 million, or $1.28 per share, in the first quarter ended Nov. 30 from $882.2 million, or $1.29 per share, a year earlier.
Net revenue, or revenue before reimbursements, rose to $8.01 billion from $7.90 billion.
