Serviceware SE's Growth Driven by AI Demand

Serviceware SE has seen a surge in its revenue growth, with a notable 13.0% year-on-year increase, surpassing projections by 2.6%. This upturn is attributed to the rising demand for SaaS solutions, new client acquisitions across diverse sectors, enriched license revenues, international growth, new partnerships, and enhanced market presence of its AI-native platform. Despite this positive trend, a decrease in maintenance and consulting revenues was recorded.

The company's EBIT margin slightly improved from 0.0% to 0.3%, supported by controlled personnel and operational expenses. However, restructuring costs and upfront sales costs linked with multi-year SaaS contracts moderated potential gains. Management affirmed revenue growth forecasts ranging from 5.0% to 15.0% with a notable EBIT and EBITDA rise.

Given these developments, Quirin Privatbank Kapitalmarktgeschäft revised the target price to EUR 34, maintaining a 'Buy' recommendation.
