Formula Systems (1985) Ltd. reported a strong first quarter of 2026, with revenue rising 19.2% year over year to $738.3 million, a first‑quarter record. Net income attributable to shareholders jumped 84.5% to $35.6 million, driving basic earnings per share up to 2.33 from 1.26.
Operating income increased to $82.0 million, helped by higher gross profit and $16.8 million of other income, while financial expenses declined. As of March 31, 2026, total assets were $3.64 billion, equity was $1.82 billion, and the company remained in compliance with all debenture covenants.
Key subsidiaries also showed momentum. Matrix’s first quarter revenues reached approximately NIS 2.13 billion with improved operating margin, Michpal Technologies grew revenue and nearly doubled adjusted net income, and TSG delivered record quarterly revenues of NIS 120.7 million and completed additional capital raises and acquisitions.
Formula Systems (1985) Ltd. is distributing a one-time special cash dividend of $13.045 per share, totaling approximately $200 million, based on its 2025 results and the completion of Advent’s acquisition of Sapiens. The board approved this after reviewing the company’s liquidity and capital needs.
The dividend will be paid on June 4, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of trading on May 25, 2026 on Nasdaq or the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange. It will be paid in U.S. dollars for both ordinary shares and American Depositary Receipts. Under Israeli law, the dividend is subject to withholding tax of 30% for holders of 10% or more of the share capital and 25% for other shareholders, subject to exemptions.
Formula Systems (1985) Ltd. files its annual Form 20-F, outlining major structural changes and extensive acquisition activity. During 2025, subsidiary Sapiens was sold to Advent for cash, with Formula retaining an indirect 18.68% minority stake; Sapiens’ 2023–2025 results are now shown as discontinued operations. The report also describes a February 2026 all‑stock merger of Matrix and Magic Software, treated as a business combination under common control using pooling of interests, affecting future Matrix reporting but not Formula’s 2025 consolidated figures.
Management details an aggressive M&A strategy across Magic Software, Matrix, Michpal, TSG Systems and Formula Infrastructure, with numerous majority-stake deals in Israel, the U.S. and other markets. The filing emphasizes risks from integration complexity, long and uncertain sales and development cycles, macroeconomic and FX pressures, intense competition, rapid technology shifts including AI and cloud, reliance on key customers, and tightening global privacy and cybersecurity regulations such as GDPR, CCPA and new Israeli data and cyber laws.
