1 Down

Pre‑news, SAP was modestly higher while key peers were mixed. Notably, NOW appeared in the momentum scanner, down 5.27% without news, while CRM, INTU, and UBER were also down and SHOP was slightly up. This points to stock‑specific drivers for SAP rather than a broad application software move.

Pattern Detected

Recent history shows several AI and partnership announcements followed by small negative price moves, indicating a tendency for the stock to trade lower on ostensibly positive innovation news, while litigation headlines aligned with mild downside.

Recent Company History

Over the last few months, SAP has focused on AI and data partnerships alongside isolated legal headlines. In November 2025, it announced multiple AI collaborations, including with France’s AI ecosystem and Snowflake, plus developer‑oriented Business AI tools, yet shares saw modest negative reactions. A trade secret complaint in November 2025 also coincided with a small decline. A major AI‑driven agriculture partnership with Syngenta in January 2026 likewise saw a mild pullback. Today’s Q4/FY 2025 cloud‑driven beat and large buyback frame these earlier initiatives within a broader growth and profitability narrative.

Analysis

This announcement highlights SAP’s cloud‑driven execution in 2025, with cloud revenue of €21.02 billion, total revenue of €36.80 billion, non‑IFRS operating profit of €10.42 billion, and free cash flow of €8.24 billion. A record total cloud backlog of €77.29 billion and a new share repurchase program of up to €10 billion underline visibility and capital return. Investors may compare these figures with past AI and data‑partnership initiatives and monitor future cloud backlog, margin evolution, and cash generation against the 2026 outlook.

non-ifrs financial

"SAP meets revenue and exceeds non-IFRS operating profit and free cash flow outlook"

Non-IFRS refers to financial measures that companies report outside the standard accounting rules set by the International Financial Reporting Standards; these figures exclude or adjust certain items such as one-time costs, stock-based pay, or restructuring charges. Investors care because non-IFRS numbers try to show the business’s underlying performance — like a chef presenting a dish with optional toppings removed to highlight the core flavor — but they can be shaped to look more favorable, so compare them with the official IFRS statements.

saas technical

"SaaS/PaaS | 5,532 | 4,585 | 21"

SaaS, or Software as a Service, is a way of delivering computer programs over the internet, allowing users to access and use them through a web browser without needing to install or maintain the software themselves. For investors, it highlights a business model where companies generate recurring revenue by providing ongoing access to their software, often leading to predictable income and growth potential.

paas technical

"SaaS/PaaS | 5,532 | 4,585 | 21"

Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a cloud offering that provides developers with ready-made tools, computing power, and hosting so they can build, test, and run software without buying or managing the underlying servers and software stack. For investors, PaaS matters because it can drive predictable subscription revenue, lower customer costs of adoption, and scale rapidly — think of renting a fully equipped kitchen that lets chefs open more restaurants faster without building each kitchen from scratch.

iaas technical

"IaaS 4 | 78 | 123 | –37"

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a cloud computing model that lets companies rent computing resources—like servers, storage, and network capacity—on demand instead of owning hardware. For investors, IaaS matters because it enables faster scaling, lower upfront costs, and predictable operating expenses for businesses, which can boost growth potential and margins; think of it as paying to use a utility grid rather than building your own power plant.

Financial Highlights[1]

Fourth Quarter 2025

In the fourth quarter, current cloud backlog grew by 16% to €21.05 billion and was up 25% at constant currencies. Large transformational deals with high cloud revenue ramps in outer years and termination for convenience clauses required by law negatively impacted fourth quarter constant currency current cloud backlog growth by approximately 1 percentage point.

Cloud revenue was up 19% to €5.61 billion and up 26% at constant currencies. Cloud ERP Suite revenue was up 23% to €4.86 billion and up 30% at constant currencies.

Software licenses revenue decreased by 34% to €0.45 billion and was down 31% at constant currencies. Cloud and software revenue was up 4% to €8.62 billion and up 10% at constant currencies. Services revenue was down 4% to €1.07 billion and flat at constant currencies. Total revenue was up 3% to €9.68 billion and up 9% at constant currencies.

The share of more predictable revenue increased by 3 percentage points to 84%.

IFRS cloud gross profit was up 20% to €4.11 billion. Non-IFRS cloud gross profit was up 21% to €4.18 billion and was up 27% at constant currencies. IFRS cloud gross margin was up 0.4 percentage points to 73.2%, non-IFRS cloud gross margin up 1.1 percentage points to 74.6% and up 0.9 percentage points at constant currencies to 74.3%.

IFRS operating profit increased 27% to €2.55 billion and IFRS operating margin was up 4.9 percentage points to 26.4%. Non-IFRS operating profit was up 16% to €2.83 billion and was up 21% at constant currencies. Non-IFRS operating margin increased by 3.2 percentage points to 29.2% and was up 3.0 percentage points to 29.0% at constant currencies. IFRS and non-IFRS operating profit growth were negatively impacted by approximately €0.1 billion related to a 2025 workforce transformation. In addition, IFRS operating profit growth was negatively impacted by approximately €0.2 billion related to Teradata litigation expenses (see section (N) Teradata Litigation Matter).

IFRS earnings per share (basic) increased 15% to €1.58. Non-IFRS earnings per share (basic) increased 16% to €1.62. IFRS effective tax rate was 31.5% and non-IFRS effective tax rate was 33.1%. Both were mainly driven by tax effects relating to taxes for prior years.

Operating cash flow in the fourth quarter increased from -€0.58 billion to €1.30 billion and free cash flow increased from -€0.91 billion to €1.03 billion. The increase was mainly attributable to lower restructuring payments and further supported by lower payouts for share-based compensation and capex.

Full Year 2025

SAP performed against its financial outlook as follows:

	Actual 2024	2025 Outlook (as of January 28)	Revised 2025 Outlook (as of October 22)	Actual 2025

Current cloud backlog (at constant currencies)	29 %	to slightly decelerate	to slightly decelerate	25 %

 

As of December 31, total cloud backlog was up 22% to €77.29 billion and up 30% at constant currencies.

Cloud revenue for the full year was up 23% to €21.02 billion and up 26% at constant currencies. Cloud ERP Suite revenue was up 28% to €18.12 billion and up 32% at constant currencies. Subscription revenue[2] was up 22% to €21.33 billion and up 26% at constant currencies. Software licenses revenue was down 29% to €0.99 billion and down 27% at constant currencies. Cloud and software revenue was up 9% to €32.54 billion and up 12% at constant currencies. Services revenue was down 2% to €4.26 billion and up 1% at constant currencies. Total revenue was up 8% to €36.80 billion and up 11% at constant currencies.

The share of more predictable revenue increased by 3 percentage points year over year to 86% for the full year 2025.

IFRS cloud gross profit was up 25% to €15.61 billion. Non-IFRS cloud gross profit was up 25% to €15.76 billion and was up 29% at constant currencies. IFRS cloud gross margin was up 1.4 percentage points to 74.2%, non-IFRS cloud gross margin up 1.7 percentage points to 75.0% and up 1.6 percentage points at constant currencies.

IFRS operating profit was up 111% to €9.83 billion and IFRS operating margin increased by 13.1 percentage points to 26.7%. IFRS operating profit growth was positively impacted by a restructuring expense decline of approximately €3.1 billion as compared to full year 2024 in connection with the 2024 transformation program and negatively impacted by approximately €0.2 billion related to Teradata litigation expenses (see section (N) Teradata Litigation Matter). Non-IFRS operating profit increased by 28% to €10.42 billion and increased by 31% at constant currencies, non-IFRS operating margin increased by 4.5 percentage points to 28.3% and was up 4.3 percentage points to 28.2% at constant currencies. IFRS and non-IFRS operating profit growth were negatively impacted by approximately €0.1 billion as a result of a change in case law that affected SAP's other tax litigation as well as approximately €0.2 billion related to a 2025 workforce transformation. 

IFRS earnings per share (basic) increased by 135% to €6.28 and non-IFRS earnings per share (basic) increased 36% to €6.15. IFRS effective tax rate was 28.5% and non-IFRS effective tax rate was 30.4%. The IFRS effective tax rate is lower than the non-IFRS effective tax rate due to tax benefits from tax-exempt income.

For the full year, operating cash flow was up 76% to €9.16 billion and free cash flow increased by 95% to €8.24 billion. The increase was mainly attributable to higher profitability and to lower payments for restructuring and share-based compensation. At year end, net liquidity was €3.38 billion.

Non-Financial Performance 2025
In 2025, our Customer NPS decreased 3 points year over year to 9 (2024: 12), which is below our target range of 12 to 16. The decrease was driven primarily by lower NPS scores from on-premise customers who have yet to transition to cloud. Overall NPS scores for cloud-oriented customers remained steady year over year, while increasing in the enterprise segment.

The Employee Engagement Index for the full year 2025 increased 2 percentage points year over year to 76% (2024: 74%), at the midpoint of the target range of 74% to 78%.

The Business Health Culture Index increased one percentage point to 81% (2024: 80%), at the midpoint of the target range of 80% to 82%.

Total carbon emissions decreased to 6.3 Mt in 2025 (2024: 6.9 Mt), in line with our guidance for a steady decrease across the relevant value chain.

New Share Repurchase Program
Following SAP's strong free cash flow generation, the Executive Board and the Supervisory Board have authorized a new share repurchase program with a volume of up to €10 billion. It is scheduled to start in February 2026 and expected to be completed by the end of 2027. The program will be implemented based on the authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting of SAP SE on May 11, 2023, and in compliance with the restrictions set forth therein.

The new share repurchase program follows SAP's 2020, 2022 and 2023-2025 repurchases of around 56 million shares for about €8.0 billion.

2024 Transformation Program: Focus on scalability of operations and key strategic growth areas

In January 2024, SAP announced a company-wide restructuring program which concluded as planned in the first quarter 2025. Overall expenses associated with the program were approximately €3.2 billion. Restructuring payouts amounted to €2.5 billion for the full-year 2024 and €0.8 billion for the full year 2025.

[1] The Q4 2025 results were also impacted by other effects. For details, please see the full Quarterly Statement.

[2] The subscription revenue measure is the sum of cloud revenue and revenue from time-based on-premise software licenses, which allow our customers to use our software for a specific, predefined period, and the associated software support. Revenue from time-based on-premise licenses is recognized at a point in time, whereas revenue from the associated software support is recognized over time.

[3] The effective tax rate (non-IFRS) is a non-IFRS financial measure and is presented for supplemental informational purposes only. We do not provide an outlook for the effective tax rate (IFRS) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of gains and losses associated with equity securities, which are reconciling items between the two effective tax rates (non-IFRS and IFRS). These items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts but could have a significant impact on our future effective tax rate (IFRS).

[4] For 2026 and onward, SAP is adopting Cloud Customer Satisfaction (Cloud CSAT) as its new customer experience KPI, as this metric better aligns to SAP's cloud-first strategy. For more information, see the Other Disclosures section in the full Quarterly Statement.

[5] In 2026, we will update the calculation methodology for the Use of Sold Products KPI, to a forward-looking approach that considers the estimated emissions during the lifetime of all new systems sold within a specific period. This change results in a significant decrease in reported emissions and therefore leads to a rebaselining according to the GHG-Protocol. For more information, see the Other Disclosures section in the full Quarterly Statement.
