Q3 2025 earnings summary30 Oct, 2025

Executive summary

  • Q3 2025 net sales were EUR 40.7 million, down 3.4% year-over-year, with sales flat at comparable currencies and a 10.5% EBITDA margin, impacted by market softness and smaller average deal sizes.

  • Profitability was affected by EUR 1.7 million in one-off IAR Systems acquisition costs, with EBITA at EUR 4.3 million, down 58.5% year-over-year.

  • Customer churn remained stable, but clients reduced license counts and opted for shorter-term deals, reflecting cost-saving measures and developer layoffs.

  • The IAR Systems acquisition was completed, expanding the product portfolio and offering cross-sell opportunities, especially in safety-critical and microcontroller segments.

  • Full-year guidance was revised downward due to weaker Q3 and a softer sales pipeline.

Financial highlights

  • Q3 2025 net sales: EUR 40.7 million (-3.4% y/y); Q1–Q3 2025 net sales: EUR 139.2 million (-1.0% y/y); Q3 net profit: EUR 1.4 million; Q3 EPS: EUR 0.06.

  • Q3 EBITA: EUR 4.3 million (10.5% margin); Q3 EBIT: EUR 2.3 million (5.6% margin); Q1–Q3 EBITA: EUR 24.4 million (17.5% margin).

  • Q3 personnel expenses grew 10% year-over-year, reflecting a 64-person headcount increase, mainly in R&D and customer-facing roles.

  • Cash and cash equivalents at end of Q3: EUR 93.9 million (+109.1% y/y); cash flow from operating activities for Q1–Q3 2025: EUR 32.4 million.

  • IAR acquisition-related costs: EUR 1.7 million in Q3.

Outlook and guidance

  • Net sales for 2025 expected to increase by 3–10% year-over-year at comparable exchange rates, with an operating profit margin (EBITA %) of 20–30%.

  • IAR acquisition expected to add EUR 8–10 million to 2025 net sales and reduce EBITA by EUR 6–7 million due to one-off costs.

  • Market softness is expected to persist through Q4, with no significant improvement anticipated until next year; management expects a gradual recovery in 2025.

  • Automotive and consumer electronics segments are most affected, while defense and medical are more resilient; APAC outperforms US and Europe.

  • Long-term growth prospects remain strong, driven by increased device displays and AI adoption.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
