“We are at an inflection point. I am not willing to trade value to our customers for short-term margin optimisation,” CEO Christian Klein told investors.

Investors were also shocked to hear that the tech giant will stop pursuing mid-term margin targets and instead focus on the transformation to cloud computing. 

“I think it’s a good time to take the margin hit of transitioning to the cloud, and clearly the pandemic economy is helping justify the move,” Greenbaum added.

SAP now projects to generate about 22 billion euros ($26 billion) from its cloud busienss by 2025, which is triple of what is making now.

Recently, SAP announced it acquired Emarsys, the Austrian cloud marketing software provider, for an undisclosed amount. This buy will help the company make further progress with its user personalization technology.

Technical analysis: Shares crash

Following today’s results, at least one investment-management firm slashed stock rating on SAP. J.P. Morgan cut price objective to 120 euros from 160 euros and changed its rating to “Neutral” from “Overweight”.
