BERLIN -- SAP SE, the global business software company, cut its
profit and sales outlook for the year as the economic impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic hit its key businesses and new lockdowns and
restrictions forestall a meaningful recovery.
The weaker than expected recovery in business travel and related
services has hit SAP's cloud-based service business Concur, the
company said, adding that it "no longer anticipates a meaningful
recovery in SAP Concur business travel-related revenues for the
remainder of the year 2020."
SAP said in a statement that it now expects non-IFRS operating
profit of up to EUR8.5 billion, down from a previous estimate of up
to EUR8.7 billion. The company cut its revenue forecast to up to
EUR27.8 billion, down from a previous forecast of up to EUR28.5
billion.
