POSITIVE IMPACT
SAP has raised its 2025 non-IFRS operating profit target to about €10 billion, factoring in share-based compensation costs, and increased its free cash flow ambition to €8 billion, both exceeding analyst expectations.
The upward revision of SAP's profit and free cash flow ambitions for 2025 suggests a positive outlook for the company's financial performance.
