SAP, Europe's largest software company, announced record quarterly revenue of €10.27 billion, surpassing the €10 billion mark for the first time.

The company's cloud backlog expanded 26% to €24.11 billion, exceeding the 24% to 25% forecast. SAP's full-year operating profit outlook remains between €11.8 billion and €12.2 billion. The success of the company's "autonomous enterprise" strategy, which emphasizes its AI-powered Joule tool, is evident in the record results. Chief Executive Christian Klein stated that AI was a significant driver of customer cloud adoption during the quarter.
CFO Dominik Asam warned of the challenging economic environment, citing rising oil prices and U.S. interest rates. Despite the gloomy outlook, SAP expects to deliver subscription revenue of €25.8 billion to €26.2 billion in fiscal 2026, representing a 23% to 25% growth.
