Formula Systems (NASDAQ: FORTY) boosts 2025 profit, closes Matrix–Magic merger
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Formula Systems reported strong 2025 results, with full-year revenues up 18.4% year over year to $2.63 billion. Net income attributable to Formula shareholders reached $606.5 million, driven largely by gains from discontinued operations following the completion of Sapiens’ acquisition by Advent.
Fourth-quarter revenues were $708.4 million, and full-year operating income from continuing operations was $196.4 million. Cash and cash equivalents rose to $1.28 billion as of December 31, 2025, and the company was in compliance with all debenture covenants. Subsidiaries delivered record results: Matrix achieved record quarterly and annual revenues, Michpal and TSG posted double‑digit growth with record revenues and adjusted EBITDA, and Zap Group ramped its new e‑commerce marketplace. Matrix and Magic Software completed a merger, with the combined entity reporting pro forma 2025 revenues of approximately $2.4 billion and EBITDA of approximately $0.3 billion.
Positive
- Strong 2025 revenue and profit growth: Full-year revenues increased 18.4% year over year to $2.63 billion, while net income attributable to Formula shareholders surged to $606.5 million, supported by the Sapiens transaction.
- Reinforced balance sheet and subsidiary momentum: Cash and cash equivalents rose to $1.28 billion as of December 31, 2025, all debenture covenants were met, and key subsidiaries (Matrix, Michpal, TSG) posted record revenues and adjusted EBITDA with double-digit growth.
Negative
- Earnings quality skewed by discontinued operations: A substantial portion of 2025 net income reflects gains from discontinued operations linked to the Sapiens transaction, which are non-recurring, making underlying profitability from continuing operations less pronounced than headline net income suggests.
Insights
Results show strong growth and cash build, but earnings quality is boosted by a major divestiture.
Formula Systems delivered solid top-line growth in 2025, with revenues rising 18.4% to $2.63 billion, while operating income from continuing operations increased to $196.4 million. The standout figure is net income attributable to shareholders of $606.5 million, which is heavily influenced by net income from discontinued operations tied to the Sapiens transaction.
Cash and cash equivalents expanded sharply to $1.28 billion as of December 31, 2025, strengthening the balance sheet while the company remained in compliance with all debenture covenants. Subsidiaries Matrix, Michpal and TSG each reported record revenues and strong adjusted EBITDA growth, suggesting broad-based demand in cloud, cybersecurity, data and AI-related services.
The completed Matrix–Magic Software merger adds another structural growth pillar: on a pro forma basis, the combined entity generated $2.4 billion in 2025 revenues and $0.3 billion in EBITDA. However, a meaningful portion of 2025 profitability stems from the one-time Sapiens-related gain, so future filings will clarify the underlying run-rate earnings from continuing operations.

PRESS RELEASE
Formula Systems Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results
2025 Full-year revenues increased by 18.4% year over year, reaching $2.63 billion. Net income attributable to Formula shareholders reached $606.5 million following the completion of Sapiens’ acquisition by Advent.
OR YEHUDA, Israel, March 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Formula Systems (1985) Ltd. (Nasdaq and TASE: FORTY) (“Formula” or the “Company”), a global information technology group engaged, through its subsidiaries and affiliates, in providing software consulting services and computer-based business solutions and developing proprietary software products, today announced its fourth quarter and full year 2025 results of operations.
Financial Highlights for the Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2025
| ● | On August 13, 2025, Sapiens International Corporation N.V. (hereafter, “Sapiens”), a subsidiary of the Company at that time, announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Advent, a leading global private equity investor, for $43.50 per common share in an all-cash transaction. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will retain a significant minority ownership interest in Sapiens, which, under the new structure, represents approximately an 18.68% ownership stake, held through SI Swan UK Topco Limited, (Sapiens’ ultimate parent company). Retaining this meaningful minority position reflects the Company’s continued conviction in Sapiens’ long-term strategy, its talented team, and the opportunities ahead in partnership with Advent to accelerate the transition to AI and SaaS and deliver the next generation of insurance solutions for Sapiens’ customers. On November 19, 2025, Sapiens held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, at which all proposals relating to the definitive agreement were approved. The transaction was completed on December 17, 2025. Following the completion of the transaction, the Company ceased to have a controlling interest in Sapiens and, accordingly, presented the results of Sapiens separately as discontinued operations in its consolidated financial statements for the fourth quarter and full year, in accordance with IFRS 5. |
| ● | Based on the Company’s results, and particularly the completion of the acquisition of Sapiens by Advent, the Company’s Board of Directors expects to distribute a dividend in the aggregate amount of up to $200 million, subject to approval of the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The Company expects to provide further information, including with respect to the record date and payment date, following the filing of its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (expected by mid-May 2026). |
| ● | Revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025, increased by 26.9% year over year, reaching a fourth quarter record-breaking $708.4 million, compared to $558.2 million in the same period last year. |
| ● | Operating income for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025 decreased by 13.5% year over year, to $41.6 million compared to $48.1 million in the same period last year. The decrease in operating income primarily reflected higher amortization expenses relating to intangible assets. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company reassessed and revised the estimated useful lives of certain acquired customer relationship intangible assets related to a non-core activity. As a result of this change in accounting estimate, amortization expense increased by approximately $18.7 million for the quarter. The revision reflects, among other factors, changes in the expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets, including the impact of evolving technology conditions and market conditions in Israel over the past two years, which have adversely affected the relevant sector. This activity does not represent a core or strategic focus of the Company’s operations. Excluding the impact of this higher amortization expense, adjusted operating income for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025 would have been $60.3 million, representing an increase of 25.5% compared to the same period last year. |
| ● | Net income from continued operation attributable to Formula Systems’ shareholders for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025, decreased by approximately 62.7% year over year, to approximately $4.3 million, or $0.27 per fully diluted share, compared to $11.7 million, or $0.74 per fully diluted share, in the same period last year. Excluding the impact of the higher amortization expenses resulting from revising the estimated useful lives of certain acquired customer relationship intangible assets ,net income from continued operation attributable to Formula Systems’ shareholders for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025, would have increased by approximately 60.9% to $18.7 million compared to the same period last year. |
| ● | Net income attributable to Formula’s shareholders for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025, reached a record-braking $554.8 million, or $35.03 per fully diluted share, compared to $20.1 million, or $1.28 per fully diluted share, in the same period last year. The increase in net income attributable to Formula’s shareholders was primarily attributable to capital gain recognized upon completion of the transaction with Advent resulting in the loss of control by the Company and the results of Sapiens’ operations for the quarter. The contribution from Sapiens, including this gain, amounted to approximately $550.4 million. |
Financial Highlights for the Full Year Ended December 31, 2025
| ● | Revenues for the full year ended December 31, 2025 increased by 18.4% year over year to approximately $2.63 billion, compared to $2.22 billion in the same period last year. |
| ● | Operating income for the full year ended December 31, 2025 increased by 7.1% year over year, reaching $196.4 million, compared to $183.3 million in the same period last year. Excluding the impact of the higher amortization expenses resulting from revising the estimated useful lives of certain acquired customer relationship intangible assets, operating income for the full year ended December 31, 2025 would have increased by approximately 17.3% to $215.1 million compared to the same period last year. |
| ● | Net income from continued operation attributable to Formula Systems’ shareholders for the full year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by approximately 24.8% year over year, to approximately $36.5 million, or $2.3 per fully diluted share, compared to $48.5 million, or $3.1 per fully diluted share, in the same period last year. Excluding the impact of the higher amortization expenses resulting from revising the estimated useful lives of certain acquired customer relationship intangible assets, net income from continued operation attributable to Formula Systems’ shareholders for the full year ended December 31, 2025 would have increased by approximately 4.9% to $50.9 million compared to the same period last year. |
| ● | Net income attributable to Formula’s shareholders for the full year ended December 31, 2025 reached a record-breaking $606.5 million, or $38.39 per fully diluted share, compared to $79.7 million, or $5.09 per fully diluted share, in the same period last year. The increase in net income attributable to Formula’s shareholders was primarily attributable to capital gain recognized upon completion of the transaction with Advent resulting in the loss of control by the Company and the results of Sapiens’ operations for the full year. The contribution from Sapiens, including this gain, amounted to approximately $570 million. |
| ● | As of December 31, 2025, Formula held 48.12%, 18.68%, 46.71%, 100%, 37.33%, 90.1%, 80%, 100%, 100%, 51% and 100% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Matrix IT Ltd., SI Swan UK Topco Limited., Magic Software Enterprises Ltd., Michpal Technologies Ltd., TSG IT Advanced Systems Ltd., Insync Staffing, Inc., Ofek Aerial Photography Ltd., ZAP Group Ltd., Shamrad Electronic (1997) Ltd., Hashahar Telecom And Electricity Ltd., and Formula Infrastructure Ltd., respectively. |

Comments of Management
Commenting on the results, Guy Bernstein, CEO of Formula Systems, said: “Formula Systems concludes 2025 with strong operating performance and significant strategic milestones that position the group for continued long-term growth. Our results reflect solid revenue expansion across our core activities, alongside the successful execution of key transactions, most notably the completion of the Sapiens transaction, which contributed significantly to our reported net income. Across the group, we continue to see strong demand for advanced technology solutions, particularly in areas such as cloud, cybersecurity, data, and AI, driving growth across our subsidiaries. At the same time, we remain focused on disciplined execution, operational excellence, and strengthening our global footprint.”
“On February 24, 2026, Matrix and Magic Software, both subsidiaries of Formula Systems, announced the completion of their merger agreement. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Magic Software shareholders received shares in the merged entity at an exchange ratio of 68.875% / 31.125% between Matrix and Magic Software shareholders, respectively, on a fully diluted basis. On a pro forma basis, the combined company reported 2025 revenues of approximately NIS 8.4 billion (approximately $2.4 billion), EBITDA of approximately NIS 1.0 billion (approximately $0.3 billion), and net income attributable to shareholders of approximately NIS 444 million (approximately $129 million), positioning it among the ten largest publicly traded IT services companies in the world. This strategic merger is designed to unlock substantial value for shareholders of both companies by creating a more robust, dynamic, and globally competitive organization. This transaction marks a defining moment in the history of both Matrix and Magic Software, representing a transformative step forward. By uniting two highly complementary organizations, this merger will create a stronger, more diversified company with expanded capabilities to serve clients worldwide, accelerate technological innovation, and drive long-term value creation.”

“Matrix reported its best fourth quarter in history with fourth quarter record-breaking results recorded across all its key financial indices: revenues, gross profit, operating income, net income and EBITDA. Matrix revenues for the fourth quarter grew by 16.4% year over year reaching an all-time fourth quarter high of NIS 1.60 billion (approximately $492.2 million). Matrix revenues for the year grew by 11.8% year over year reaching an all-time high of NIS 6.2 billion (approximately $1.8 billion).

We are pleased with Matrix’s continued recognition as a market leader in Israel in the implementation of fastest-growing technologies, such as cloud, cyber, digital, data, DevOps and AI, which enable the company to create significant value for its customers in managing, streamlining, accelerating and making its businesses thrive. Matrix continues to see strong demand for services and solutions across cybersecurity, cloud, data, and AI, in both the commercial and defense sectors. Matrix’s defense activities, together with the contribution of Commit following the Magic transaction, are generating annual revenues exceeding NIS 1 billion and continue to deliver strong double-digit growth. At the same time, the rapid evolution of AI is expanding the IT services market, driving increased demand for enterprise projects. Matrix is well positioned at the intersection of technological innovation and enterprise implementation, with significant growth potential across its core areas of activity.”
“Michpal Technologies’ concluded 2025, a year in which it became a public company, with strong results and continued growth, reflecting its ability to leverage synergies and expand revenues and profits. With a solid cash position, the Company is advancing its acquisition strategy while strengthening its position in payroll, HR, and financial solutions. At the same time, we see AI as a key driver for enhancing its competitive advantage and supporting future growth, alongside ongoing efforts to expand through additional acquisition opportunities. Michpal concluded the full year of 2025 with record-breaking revenues of NIS 198.4 million (approximately $57.7 million), growing 24.2% year over year. Adjusted EBITDA increased by 43.6% year over year to a record-breaking NIS 76.1 million (approximately $22.1 million). Michpal Technologies offers comprehensive proprietary on-premise and web-based payroll software solutions and related services, as well as integrated specialized management systems in the field of financial accounting, taxation, and compliance for accounting professionals (accountants and tax consultants), bookkeepers, controllers, and CFOs.”
“TSG concluded the fourth quarter and full year of 2025 with record-breaking results, demonstrating significant growth in revenue and profits across all its business segments. Revenues for the fourth quarter increased by approximately 34.1% year over year to a record-breaking NIS 114.8 million (approximately $35.3 million). Revenues for the full year 2025 increased by approximately 34% year over year to a record-breaking NIS 430 million (approximately $124.6 million). Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased by 33.9% year-over-year to a record-breaking NIS 17.8 million (approximately $5.5 million), compared to NIS 13.3 million (approximately $3.6 million) in the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2025 increased by 31% year-over-year to record-breaking NIS 63.8 million (approximately $18.5 million), compared to NIS 48.7 million (approximately $13.1 million) in the same period last year. TSG announced several potential strategic business combination transactions that are expected to enhance its capabilities across the entire value chain of counter-UAV solutions - from detection and precise mapping, through autonomous interception platforms, to manufacturing and integration of operational systems. The integration of these capabilities with TSG’s command and control systems, which incorporate artificial intelligence, would enable TSG to offer end-to-end solutions and support real-time decision-making and interception capabilities to address low-altitude threats.”
“Over the past year, Zap Group, Israel’s leading consumer websites company, has demonstrated agility in adapting to evolving market dynamics. The launch of its groundbreaking E-Commerce Marketplace platform marks a pivotal transformation in its business model. By integrating cutting-edge technology and service-driven solutions, Zap Group has enhanced its relationships with small and medium-sized businesses, driving higher sales volumes, while deepening connections with end consumers through a 360-degree, holistic experience.

Currently, over 400 stores feature more than 100,000 products, reflecting strong adoption and success. The platform enables businesses to engage directly with consumers, fostering personalized relationships, leveraging data-driven insights, and effectively managing customer journeys. This innovation positions Zap Group at the forefront of Israel’s digital economy. In response to broader economic challenges, including the geopolitical situation in Israel since October 2023, Zap Group has adopted a prudent approach to investments and operations. While prioritizing operational efficiency and cost optimization, Zap Group remains committed to growth.
