Financial Highlights1

Fourth Quarter 2024

In the fourth quarter, current cloud backlog grew by 32% to €18.08 billion and was up 29% at constant currencies. Cloud revenue was up 27% to €4.71 billion and up 27% at constant currencies, fueled by Cloud ERP Suite revenue, which was up 35% to €3.95 billion and up 35% at constant currencies.

Software licenses revenue decreased by 18% to €0.68 billion and was down 19% at constant currencies. Cloud and software revenue was up 12% to €8.27 billion and up 11% at constant currencies. Services revenue was up 2% to €1.11 billion and up 2% at constant currencies. Total revenue was up 11% to €9.38 billion and up 10% at constant currencies.

The share of more predictable revenue increased by 4 percentage points to 81% in the fourth quarter.

IFRS cloud gross profit was up 29% to €3.43 billion. Non-IFRS cloud gross profit was up 30% to €3.46 billion and was up 29% at constant currencies. IFRS Cloud gross margin was up 1.0 percentage points to 72.8%, non-IFRS cloud gross margin up 1.3 percentage points to 73.5% and up 1.4 percentage points at constant currencies.

Non-IFRS operating profit was up 24% to €2.44 billion and was up 24% at constant currencies, non-IFRS operating margin increased by 2.7 percentage points to 26.0% and was up 2.9 percentage points to 26.1% at constant currencies. IFRS and non-IFRS operating profit was mainly driven by a strong performance in SAP’s software licenses and support business as well as disciplined execution of the 2024 transformation program. In addition, IFRS operating profit was negatively impacted by restructuring expenses associated with the 2024 transformation program.

IFRS earnings per share (basic) increased 31% to €1.37. Non-IFRS earnings per share (basic) increased 24% to €1.40. IFRS effective tax rate was 26.8% (Q4/2023: 33.6%) and non-IFRS effective tax rate was 30.0% (Q4/2023: 32.5%). For IFRS, the year-over-year decrease mainly resulted from changes in tax-exempt income and prior-year taxes. For non-IFRS, the year-over-year decrease mainly resulted from prior-year taxes.

Free cash flow in the fourth quarter came in at –€0.92 billion (Q4 2023: €1.67 billion). The year over year decline was mainly attributable to a €1.7 billion payout under the 2024 transformation program.

For the full year, cloud revenue was up 25% to €17.14 billion and up 26% at constant currencies. Software licenses revenue was down 21% to €1.40 billion and down 21% at constant currencies. Cloud and software revenue was up 11% to €29.83 billion and up 11% at constant currencies. Services revenue was up 1% to €4.35 billion and up 2% at constant currencies. Total revenue was up 10% to €34.18 billion and up 10% at constant currencies.

The share of more predictable revenue increased by 3 percentage points year over year to 83% for the full year 2024.

IFRS cloud gross profit was up 28% to €12.48 billion. Non-IFRS cloud gross profit was up 28% to €12.56 billion and was up 28% at constant currencies. IFRS cloud gross margin was up 1.2 percentage points to 72.8%, non-IFRS cloud gross margin up 1.4 percentage points to 73.3% and up 1.4 percentage points at constant currencies.

IFRS operating profit was down 20% to €4.66 billion and IFRS operating margin decreased by 4.9 percentage points to 13.6%. The decline in IFRS operating profit was due to restructuring expenses of approximately €3.1 billion associated with the 2024 transformation program. Non-IFRS operating profit increased 25% to €8.15 billion and increased 26% at constant currencies, non-IFRS operating margin increased by 3.0 percentage points to 23.9% and was up 3.1 percentage points to 24.0% at constant currencies.

IFRS earnings per share (basic) decreased 14% to €2.68 and non-IFRS earnings per share (basic) increased 22% to €4.53. IFRS effective tax rate was 33.9% (FY/2023: 32.6%) and non-IFRS effective tax rate was 32.3% (FY/2023: 30.3%). For IFRS, the year-over-year increase mainly resulted from a temporary inability to offset withholding taxes in Germany due to tax losses in 2024 resulting from restructuring, which was partly compensated by changes in tax-exempt income. For non-IFRS, the year-over-year increase mainly resulted from a temporary inability to offset withholding taxes in Germany due to tax losses in 2024 resulting from restructuring.

Free cash flow for the full year was down 19% to €4.11 billion. While higher payouts for restructuring of €2.5 billion and share-based compensation of €1.3 billion weighed on free cash flow, the performance was supported by SAP’s increased profitability and improvements in working capital. At year end, net liquidity was €1.70 billion.

Non-Financial Performance 2024

Customer Net Promoter Score (NPS) increased 3 points year over year to 12 in 2024, at the upper end of the outlook range.

The proportion of women in executive roles increased 0.3 percentage points to 22.5%, in line with the outlook.

SK Group Establishes Foundation for AI Collaboration with Vietnam

Published

on

By

SK Telecom and SK Innovation sign separate MOUs with Vietnam’s Nghe An Province and the National Innovation Center (NIC) to foster artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem development.From AI data center (AIDC) construction to stable power supply, Korea’s full-stack AI is poised for its first overseas expansion.SK Chairman Chey Tae-won: “SK Group will contribute to the advancement of Vietnam’s AI industry through its comprehensive AI portfolio.”

SEOUL, South Korea, April 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SK Group announced it will collaborate with Vietnam to build the country’s artificial intelligence (AI) industry ecosystem and develop core AI infrastructure.

At the Korea–Vietnam Business Forum held in Hanoi on April 23, SK Group signed separate memoranda of understanding (MOUs) with the Nghe An Provincial Government and Vietnam’s National Innovation Center (NIC) to foster AI ecosystem development.

The signing ceremony was held in the presence of Kim Jung-kwan, Minister of Trade, Industry and Resources of Korea, and Ngo Van Tuan, Minister of Finance of Vietnam.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Nghe An Provincial People’s Committee and SK Group was signed by Vo Trong Hai, Chairman of the Nghe An Provincial People’s Committee; Choo Hyeong-wook, President & CEO of SK Innovation; and Jung Jai-hun, President & CEO of SK Telecom.

Another MOU between the National Innovation Center (NIC) and SK Group was signed by Vu Quoc Huy, Director General of NIC; Choo Hyeong-wook, President & CEO of SK Innovation; and Jung Jai-hun, President & CEO of SK Telecom.

Chey Tae-won, Chairman of SK Group and Chairman of the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI), also attended the ceremony.

Earlier, at the Korea–Vietnam Summit, the two countries agreed to expand cooperation in future growth sectors such as AI, semiconductors, and energy. SK Group’s MOUs with Vietnam represent this bilateral cooperation being put into action by the private sector.

Through these partnerships, SK Group plans to support Vietnam’s growth as a key partner in its national AI strategy. In addition, building on AI data center development and stable power supply, SK Group is expected to lay the groundwork for the first overseas expansion of its “Korean-style AI full-stack” model, linking AI model development and validation with the rollout of industry-specific AI services.

Joint AIDC feasibility study in Nghe An linked to the Quynh Lap LNG Power Project

SK Innovation and SK Telecom signed an MOU with the Nghe An provincial government to jointly explore developing an AIDC and related infrastructure projects in the region. Nghe An is a major economic hub in north-central Vietnam and has emerged as a fast-growing region for manufacturing, energy and advanced industries, supported by its port and logistics infrastructure.

SK Innovation will explore broad cooperation opportunities in energy solutions, including supplying electricity to the data center and building dedicated generation facilities connected to the Quynh Lap LNG Power Project, for which it was recently selected as the developer.

SK Telecom plans to review options for developing, building, and operating the AIDC while also seeking to secure global demand. The Nghe An provincial government agreed to discuss support measures to help advance the partnership, including permits, administrative procedures, inter-ministerial coordination and incentive programs.

In February, SK Innovation was selected as a developer for the Quynh Lap LNG power project in Nghe An Province, together with PV Power, a power generation subsidiary of Vietnam’s state-owned oil and gas group PVN, and local company NASU. The project is a large-scale energy infrastructure initiative that includes the development of a 1,500-MW gas-fired combined cycle power plant, an LNG terminal, and a dedicated port, with construction scheduled to begin in 2027 and completion targeted for 2030. From the proposal stage, SK Innovation also presented a model to foster high value-added industries by integrating SK Group’s AI and semiconductor capabilities in areas near the power plant, thereby laying the foundation for the current partnership.

At the forum, the Nghe An government also presented the SK Innovation consortium with the Investment Registration Certificate (IRC) for the Quynh Lap Power Project, reaffirming its commitment to the development.

“Drawing on SK Group’s experience in operating large-scale power generation and diverse energy solution businesses, we will ensure the successful development of the local power infrastructure,” said Choo Hyeong-wook, President & CEO of SK Innovation, during a presentation titled “Vietnam’s Economic Leap through AI + Energy Innovation.”

Cooperation with NIC to Build Vietnam’s AI Ecosystem

SK Telecom and SK Innovation also signed a comprehensive MOU with Vietnam’s NIC to support the development of the country’s AI ecosystem.

The two sides agreed to cooperate on AIDC development, energy infrastructure development and the establishment of policy and institutional frameworks to foster the AI industry.

Under the agreement, SK Telecom will support AI ecosystem development in Vietnam through technology collaboration and investment promotion, and SK Innovation will provide energy solutions for AIDCs and related industries. The NIC will provide institutional support, such as coordinating with government agencies, improving regulations and developing policy, while also identifying and connecting local partners to facilitate project execution.

Established in 2019 by the Vietnamese government, NIC serves as the country’s national innovation hub, leading initiatives in AI, semiconductors and investment promotion. SK Group has maintained a close partnership with NIC, including a previous $30 million contribution toward its establishment.

Jung Jai-hun, President and CEO of SK Telecom, said, “AI data centers are key infrastructure that underpins the growth of the AI industry. Building on SK Group’s accumulated capabilities in the development, construction, and operation of AI data centers, we will further refine a collaboration model tailored to the Vietnamese market.”

First Overseas Expansion of Chairman Chey Tae-won’s “AI Full-Stack Provider” Vision

This partnership in Vietnam is significant as it could mark SK Group’s first overseas expansion of the “AI full-stack provider” strategy, integrating capabilities in AIDC, power, and energy solutions.

Chairman Chey Tae-won has consistently articulated his vision of transforming SK Group into an “AI full-stack provider.” Leveraging SK Group’s strengths across the AI value chain—including semiconductors, data centers, power and energy solutions, and AI services—the Group aims to build the most efficient AI infrastructure model.

Under this vision, SK Group is advancing the development of the 100-MW hyperscale “SK AI Data Center Ulsan,” targeted for completion in 2027. The Group has also been laying the groundwork for Korea to emerge as an Asia-Pacific AI hub by engaging in discussions with OpenAI on collaboration for AI data center development in Korea.

Ahead of the Korea–Vietnam Business Forum, Chairman Chey Tae-won said at a business roundtable, “AI will play a critical role in Vietnam’s continued growth. SK Group has a portfolio spanning the entire AI ecosystem—from energy and semiconductors to AI models and applications—and we will leverage this to make tangible contributions to the development of Vietnam’s AI industry.”

Ace Green Recycling, Inc. and Athena Technology Acquisition Corp. II Announce $32 Million PIPE Investment to Support Proposed Business Combination

Published

Investment led by seasoned sector-focused institutional investors supports development of Ace’s Texas facility and international operations

HOUSTON, April 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ace Green Recycling, Inc. (“Ace” or the “Company”), a leading provider of sustainable battery recycling technology solutions, and Athena Technology Acquisition Corp. II (“ATEK II” or “Athena”), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced that they have entered into securities purchase agreements with certain investors for an aggregate $32 million private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) financing to support their previously-announced proposed business combination (the “Proposed Business Combination”), with the common stock of the combined company expected to be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker “AGXI” following the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination.

The PIPE financing includes participation from sector-focused institutional investors, and is expected to support Ace’s differentiated recycling platform for lithium (nickel-manganese-cobalt & lithium iron phosphate) and lead batteries and its role in enabling domestic supply chains for critical battery materials supporting a circular economy for batteries. The financing is a key milestone toward the completion of the Proposed Business Combination and supports the Company’s strategy to scale its U.S. footprint, global supply chain management platform, and commercialize its next-generation battery recycling technology.

“This investment accelerates our mission to redefine battery recycling at a global scale,” said Ace CEO Nishchay Chadha. “At Ace, we are deploying GREENLEAD® and LithiumFirst™ as a new standard – fully electrified, Scope 1 emissions-free solutions designed to replace legacy processes and unlock a cleaner supply chain for critical materials. We believe that the future of electrification depends on how efficiently and sustainably we recover these resources, and this milestone brings us meaningfully closer to that future.”

Concurrent with and contingent upon the closing of the Proposed Business Combination, Ace expects to receive approximately $32 million in gross proceeds from the PIPE financing before transaction expenses. The Company expects to use these proceeds primarily to fund capital expenditures related to the development of its Texas recycling facility as well as for general corporate purposes, including supporting the expansion of operations and to fund the purchase of other companies , as described in the registration statement on Form S-4 most recently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Athena and Ace on March 24, 2026.

We believe that investor participation in this PIPE reflects confidence in Athena’s ability to bring together exceptional talent and partner with high-quality companies through complex transactions and the public market process. We also believe that Ace is well positioned to support a more resilient domestic supply chain for critical battery materials, and this marks an important step toward closing the Proposed Business Combination,” said Isabelle Freidheim, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Athena

TOTAL PLAY ANNOUNCES REVENUE OF Ps.11,177 MILLION AND EBITDA OF Ps.4,849 MILLION IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2026

Published

on

By

—Growth of 115,020 net subscribers in Totalplay Residencial in the period strengthens the company’s service revenues—

 —EBITDA less Capex and interest reached Ps.883 million, the highest level ever recorded for a first quarter—

—A 9% reduction in debt with cost from loans provides additional strength to the company’s capital structure—

MEXICO CITY, April 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Total Play Telecomunicaciones, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (“Total Play”), a leading telecommunications company in Mexico, which offers internet access, pay television and telephony services, through one of the largest 100% fiber optic networks in the country, announced today financial results for the first quarter of 2026.

“The growing preference of millions of homes for our technologically advanced internet services, with superior stability and speed, resulted in a net increase of 115,020 subscribers in the quarter, which continued to drive the company’s revenue,” commented Eduardo Kuri, CEO of Total Play. “The growth of our operations was consistent with the Capex which represented only 22% of revenue, and interest payments that decreased double-digit, in the context of lower debt with cost at the company. This resulted in a 51% increase in cash generation — defined as EBITDA less Capex and interest paid — reaching a record high of Ps.883 million in the period.”

“Regarding the balance sheet, we began this quarter with the amortization schedule for the Senior Secured Notes due 2028 — through a principal payment of US$15 million for the period — which adds to the US$56 million amortization of the remaining balance of the Senior Notes due in 2025 — done in the previous quarter — which, among other debt payments, contributed to a 9% reduction in our balance of debt with cost from loans,” added Mr. Kuri. “Simultaneously, we were able to decrease our lease liabilities by 30% and our trade payables by 22%, further strengthening Total Play’s solid capital structure.”

First quarter results 

Revenue for the quarter was Ps.11,177 million, 3% higher than Ps.10,843 million for the same period of the previous year. Total costs and expenses were Ps.6,328 million, compared to Ps.5,761 million in the prior year.

As a result, Total Play’s EBITDA was Ps.4,849 million, from Ps.5,082 million a year ago; the quarter’s EBITDA margin was 43%. The company reported operating profit of Ps.301 million, compared to Ps.763 million a year earlier.

Total Play reported a net loss of Ps.1,327 million from a loss of Ps.1,961 million in the same quarter of 2025.

Revenue from services 

The company’s revenue increased 3%, as a result of 3% growth in sales in the residential segment and 4% growth in revenue from the enterprise segment.

Totalplay Residential’s revenue increase to Ps.9,848 million, up from Ps.9,570 million the previous year, is related to a 4% increase in the number of the company’s service subscribers compared to the same quarter of the previous year, reaching 5,554,374 this period — a figure that includes 67,856 small and medium-sized businesses. Compared to the previous quarter, the subscriber base increased by 115,020 users. The company believes that the number of subscribers achieved this quarter reflects its remarkable ability to offer technologically advanced internet services — with superior stability and speed — continuous innovation in its entertainment platform, and service excellence.

Average revenue per subscriber (ARPU) for the quarter was Ps.588, compared to Ps.597 a year ago. The decrease in ARPU is largely related to a growing proportion of double-play subscribers compared to triple-play subscribers within the total residential subscriber base.

The number of homes passed by Total Play in Mexico at the end of this period was 19.5 million, compared to 17.6 million a year ago.

Penetration — the proportion of homes passed by Total Play that have the company’s telecommunications services — was 28.5% at the end of the quarter from 30.2% a year ago.

Revenue from the enterprise segment was Ps.1,329 million, up from Ps.1,273 million in the previous year, as a result of contracting Total Play services for the development of corporate client projects.

Costs and expenses 

Total costs and expenses increased 10% as a result of a 4% increase in service costs and a 12% increase in expenses.

The increase in costs to Ps.1,663 million from Ps.1,597 million in the previous year, results mainly from higher costs related to memberships, maintenance and support, partially offset by lower content costs — as a result of a higher proportion of double play users in the mix of residential service subscribers and the negotiation of terms, in an optimal way, with content producers —.

The increase in expenses to Ps.4,665 million from Ps.4,164 million reflects higher maintenance, personnel, advertising and promotion expenses, in the context of the company’s growing operations.

EBITDA and net result 

Total Play’s EBITDA was Ps.4,849 million compared to Ps.5,082 million the previous year.

Relevant variations below EBITDA were the following:

An increase of Ps.229 million in depreciation and amortization, as a result of user acquisition costs — telecommunications equipment, labor and installation in the period.

A Decrease of Ps.189 million in accrued interest payable, in the context of reducing the company’s debt with cost balance during the period.

Changes in the fair value of financial instruments of Ps.921 million, due to costs related to hedging options in the previous year.

Other financial income of Ps.31 million, compared to other expenses of Ps.200 million in the previous year, as a result of costs related to debt issuances a year ago.

A, increase of Ps.109 million in exchange losses as a result of net liability monetary position in foreign currency, together with greater depreciation of the peso against the basket of currencies in which the company’s monetary liabilities are denominated this quarter, compared to the previous year.

Total Play reported a net loss of Ps.1,327 million from a net loss of Ps.1,961 million in the same period of 2025.

Balance sheet

As of March 31, 2026, the company’s debt with cost from loans was Ps.55,477 million, 9% lower than the Ps.60,806 million of the previous year. The reduction resulted from various debt with cost amortizations during the period, including US$15 million of the company’s Senior Secured Notes due 2028 this quarter and US$56 million of the remaining Senior Notes due 2025, done last November, partially offset by the issuance of US$200 million in Additional Notes to the Senior Secured Notes due 2032, announced in April 2025.

Lease liabilities were Ps.2,756 million, 30% lower compared to Ps.3,917 million in the previous year.

Cash and cash equivalents, as well as restricted cash in trusts, was Ps.6,477 million, compared to Ps.10,008 million a year ago. As a result, the company’s net debt was Ps.51,756 million, 5% lower compared to Ps.54,715 million in the previous year.

The debt ratio — Net Debt / EBITDA of the last two quarters annualized — was 2.62 times.

Total Play’s fixed assets — which include accumulated investment in fiber optics, telecommunications equipment and subscriber acquisition costs, among other assets — were Ps.79,312 million, compared to Ps.85,944 million a year ago.
