Grid Dynamics provides digital engineering and information technology services focused on complex technical consulting, software design, development, testing, AI, and internet service operations. It’s built its biggest billable engineering staff ever due to high demand and operational capacity. Also, recent corporate acquisitions have helped GDYN build its AI capabilities and win more business with the large hyperscalers dominating cloud computing.

As for its finances, GDYN achieved record quarterly revenue and profitability in 2024’s third quarter. Revenue jumped 12.9% to $87.4 million, which beat consensus expectations. Fourth-quarter revenue is projected to be up to $97 million, which would be a 24% year-over-year rise. GDYN had per-share earnings of $0.05 for the quarter, which is up from $0.01 a year prior. The sustained corporate growth drove the company to be included in the S&P SmallCap 600 index, which will happen on Jan. 2.

It’s no wonder GDYN shares are up 69% this year – and they could rise more. MAPsignals data shows how a rare bullish signal reflects Big Money investors are betting heavily on the forward picture of the stock.
