On a combined like-for-like basis, FY 2025 revenue grew 1.4% in constant currency to CHF 1,518 million – ahead of the previously communicated flat growth guidance. FX negatively impacted combined like-for-like revenue with 3.4 percentage points in 2025.

SoftwareOne confirms its FY 2025 guidance for an adjusted EBITDA margin above 20% on a combined like-for-like basis.
