- Wednesday, October 24, 2012, 3:44 AM More on SAP (SAP) Q3: Changes corporate structure to "On Premise" for traditional operations with software on the customer's hardware, and "Cloud" for online business. Raises 2012 software and services revenue growth forecast to 10.5%-12.5% from 10%-12% prior to reflect $4.3B acquisition of Ariba. Continues to expect operating profit of €5.05B-€5.25B. SAP shares +3.3% in Frankfurt. Comment! [Earnings, Tech]
- Wednesday, October 24, 2012, 3:35 AM SAP (SAP): Q3 net profit falls to €618 from €1.25B last year, which was boosted by release of provisions worth €723M. However, Q3 2012 below forecasts due to forex fluctuations. Revenue +16% to €3.95B. Adjusted operating profit +10% to €1.24B, in line. Software license sales +17% to €1.03B, above consensus of €993M.

- Friday, October 19, 2012, 5:23 PM SAP, whose ERP software is generally considered as fun as watching paint dry, is trying to make its business apps more consumer-like in terms of ease-of-use and aesthetics. SAP's mobile app efforts are said to have helped foster a mentality change. Another factor could be competition from cloud software rivals emphasizing simple, intuitive design and collaboration/social networking features. (also) Comment! [Tech]
- Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 4:47 PM SAP's fast-growing Hana in-memory database now supports Amazon Web Services (AWS): a server running Hana is available for $3.49/hour. Embracing AWS could boost Hana's popularity with Internet companies - most adopters thus far have been enterprises. SAP has also launched its own cloud platform for Hana: a database service and an app development solution are among the offerings. Archrival Oracle (ORCL) is rolling out cloud database services and much else. (more) Comment! [Tech]
- Friday, October 12, 2012, 5:33 PM Workday (WDAY) held onto its big gains, finishing its first trading day with a price of $48.69 and a market cap of $7.8B. Workday's valuation - steep even if based on expected 2012 bookings of $500M+ rather than trailing sales - is producing plenty of chatter. Defenders point to Workday's huge contracts with the likes of Google, H-P, and AIG, and the fact its share of the HR and (especially) ERP software markets is still quite low relative to incumbents Oracle and SAP, who are trying to return fire. Comment! [Tech]
- Tuesday, October 2, 2012, 9:45 AM SAP appears on track to release a version of its Hana in-memory database software that supports non-SAP software, claims Barclays. That would greatly expand the market for Hana, whose performance has led Bernstein to forecast sales will grow to $750M this year and reach $4.4B in 2015. Yesterday, Oracle (ORCL) announced an upgrade for its Exadata line, which combines an in-memory database with powerful hardware. Larry Ellison boasted of huge performance gains, and (in typical fashion) dismissed Hana as "really small" by comparison. Comment! [Tech, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, September 28, 2012, 6:07 PM The DOJ has approved SAP's $4.3B ($45/share) acquisition of Ariba (ARBA), following a somewhat lengthy review. The news comes shortly after SAP announced U.K. regulators have also given their blessing to the deal, which will make SAP a dominant player in enterprise procurement software and the owner of a top B2B e-commerce network. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, September 17, 2012, 7:02 PM A July E.U. court ruling sanctioning the re-sale of software licenses could damage the European sales of enterprise software vendors such as Microsoft (MSFT), Oracle (ORCL), and SAP, as cost-sensitive companies opt for second-hand "copies" selling at a 30%-70% discount. Germany's UsedSoft, the winning party in the E.U. ruling, says it has seen demand triple since the decision was made. Most U.S. software contracts forbid the re-sale of licenses. 2 Comments [Tech]
- Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 8:39 AM Oracle (ORCL) has launched an appeal in a lawsuit over accusations that SAP unit (SAP) TomorrowNow wrongfully downloaded millions of Oracle files. Last month, SAP agreed to pay Oracle $306M in damages "to save the time and expense" of a new trial," as the rivals' lawyers put it. However, a jury had originally awarded $1.3B to Oracle in a verdict that was later voided by a judge. 1 Comment [Tech]
- Thursday, August 30, 2012, 6:19 PM Cloud ERP and HR software firm Workday, which used the JOBS Act to quietly file for an IPO in July, has finally provided an S-1. The company, which wants to raise up to $400M and will use the symbol WDAY, posted revenue of $119.5M (+118% Y/Y) in the 6 months ending July 31, and a net loss of $46.9M. Deferred revenue totaled $247.5M as of July's end. The white-hot market for enterprise tech IPOs suggests Workday should get a favorable reception, though its offering comes at a time when Oracle and SAP are encroaching on its turf. Comment! [Tech]
- Monday, August 27, 2012, 9:34 AM More on IBM-Kenexa: The acquisition is notable given IBM, a major provider of "infrastructure" software such as databases, systems management, and middleware, has tread cautiously in application software, out of fear of disturbing partnerships. Not everyone expected Big Blue to respond to SAP and Oracle's cloud HR moves in kind. The Kenexa deal speaks of the growth opportunity IBM sees in cloud application software, and the increasing willingness of IT giants to step on each others' toes to pursue growth. 1 Comment [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, August 27, 2012, 9:18 AM IBM is buying cloud HR software vendor Kenexa (KNXA) for $1.3B, or $46/share. The price represents a 42% premium to Kenexa's Friday close. The acquisition follows SAP and Oracle's purchases of peers SuccessFactors and Taleo, and comes as Workday, another big name in the space, prepares an IPO. Cornerstone OnDemand (CSOD), a cloud HR name that hasn't found a buyer yet, could trade higher on the news. IBM expects the acquisition to close in Q4. (PR) 1 Comment [Tech, On the Move, M&A, Breaking News]
- Monday, August 20, 2012, 10:02 AM SAP is open to making more acquisitions, says co-CEO Jim Hagemann Snabe; he adds the enterprise software giant wants 2/3 of its long-term growth to come through internal expansion, and 1/3 from M&A. SAP has committed $7.7B over the last nine months to acquiring enterprise cloud software vendors SuccessFactors and Ariba. (more on SAP's cloud efforts: I, II, III) Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Sunday, August 5, 2012, 5:54 AM SAP (SAP) has instructed employees to limit costs after the software company's 1H profits failed to reach internal targets, German magazine WirtschaftsWoche reported yesterday. While SAP's official full-year guidance is for €5.05-5.25B, its goal for bonus payments is €5.3B. Comment! [Tech]
