WALLDORF, Germany, April 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- SAP SE (NYSE:SAP) announced today its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Christian Klein, CEO:We're off to a great start in 2024 and we're confident we'll achieve our goals for the year. Looking ahead, we have powerful growth drivers in place – Business AI, cross-selling across our cloud portfolio, and winning new customers particularly in the midmarket. The strength of our current cloud backlog reaching a record growth rate is a testament to that momentum. Our transformation program is also well on track and will help us to capture this growth and increase efficiency.
Dominik Asam, CFO:In the first quarter we successfully kicked off the implementation of our transformation program thereby allowing us to focus our investments on the Business AI opportunity while decoupling expense from revenue growth. We are also very pleased by the unabated growth momentum of the Cloud ERP Suite, reflecting the market's secular shift towards integrated cloud solutions.
All figures in this statement are based on SAP group results from continuing operations unless otherwise noted.
