Investing.com -- Atoss Software AG (ETR:AOFG) on Thursday reported a strong third quarter with revenue rising 12% YoY to €47.2 million, continuing its growth trajectory despite challenging economic conditions.
The workforce management software provider’s shares jumped 7.1% following the announcement, as investors responded positively to improved earnings and raised guidance.
The company posted third-quarter operating profit (EBIT) of €17.2 million, up 7% from €16.1 million a year earlier, with an EBIT margin of 36%. Cloud revenue, a key growth driver, surged 25% to €23.4 million compared to €18.7 million in the same quarter last year.
The company’s recurring revenue now accounts for 70% of total revenue, up from 68% a year ago, providing enhanced visibility for future performance.
"Despite the continuing weak economic environment, ATOSS succeeded in lifting revenues and earnings in the third quarter, thereby continuing the successful development of the previous quarters," said Christof Leiber, CFO of ATOSS Software SE.
For the first nine months of 2025, ATOSS reported total revenue of €139.3 million, an 11% increase from €125.9 million in the same period last year. Cloud and subscription revenue grew 28% to €67.6 million, now representing 48% of total revenue compared to 42% a year earlier.
The company noted a significant rebound in order intake during the third quarter after slower performance in the first half of the year. The cloud and subscriptions order backlog, indicating revenues from contractually committed cloud usage fees within the next 12 months, increased to €101.7 million from €85.8 million at the end of 2024.
Based on these results, ATOSS raised its full-year EBIT margin guidance to 34%, up from its previous forecast of at least 31%, while maintaining its revenue target of approximately €190 million for 2025.
