The value of a share of stock in Infosys as of the close of trading Thursday. The price has dropped more than 25 percent over the past year. Analyst firm Technology Business Research said independent software vendors might see the India-based systems integrator as an acquisition bargain due to its buildup of software-centric capabilities and execution challenges. TBR said companies like Infosys have become appealing acquisition targets because they've built proprietary software products and adopted key performance indicators (KPIs) around product design and development that aren't usually found in the industry.

Last week, Infosys announced that sales for its 2017 fiscal year – which ended March 31 – climbed above $10 billion for the first time, yet fell well short of projected revenue growth of between 8.6 percent and 9 percent. Infosys didn't respond to requests for comment.
