Sap's Current Cloud Backlog Points to Growth Acceleration

Dow Jones07-24

0855 GMT - SAP's strong current cloud backlog in the second quarter is evidence that top-line growth will accelerate next year, Deutsche Bank's Johannes Schaller writes in a research note. The German business-software group said CCB--a closely watched measure of sales that SAP expects over the coming year based on existing contracts--grew 26% at constant currencies, above expectations of around 24%. Schaller says that even adjusting for M&A, CCB growth improved slightly from the first quarter and now stands above both cloud revenue growth and the midpoint of 2026 cloud revenue guidance. SAP shares trade 6.6% higher at 136.74 euros. (mauro.orru@wsj.com)
