What this transaction means for investors
After a 69% drop over the past year, it looks like Arnhold thinks Kyndryl Holdings stock is a bargain at its beaten-down price. This is a little surprising because stagnant and a contracting bottom line aren’t the sort of things that encourage investors to raise their bets.
Arnhold’s confidence appears misplaced. Despite raising the number of shares it’s holding by 60%, the position’s value shrank by 21% to $25.2 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2026.
Kyndryl Holdings stock has underperformed, but that doesn’t seem to bother Arnhold. The stock is the firm’s 14th-largest out of 117 holdings.
Kyndryl’s top line has been stagnant, but an expansion of its partnership with Arizona’s Department of Transportation could help it return to growth. Earlier this month, the company announced that it would continue to deliver new capabilities for the government entity.
