Business Highlights

Financial Highlights

SAP had strong growth in the cloud, ahead of its mid-term aspirations. First quarter non-IFRS cloud subscriptions and support revenue grew 33% year-over-year (33% at constant currencies) to €678 million. New cloud bookings1 grew a solid 23% (26% at constant currencies) in the first quarter and reached €145 million.

The rapidly growing cloud business together with solid growth in support revenue drove a record share of more predictable revenue. The total of cloud subscriptions & support revenue and software support revenue reached 69% share of total revenue in the first quarter 2016.

IFRS cloud and software revenue was €3.85 billion (2015: €3.65 billion), an increase of 5%. Non-IFRS cloud and software revenue was €3.85 billion (2015: €3.66 billion), an increase of 5% (6% at constant currencies).

IFRS operating profit was up 28% to €0.81 billion. Non-IFRS operating profit grew 5% to €1.10 billion (4% at constant currencies). IFRS earnings per share increased 38% to €0.48. Non-IFRS earnings per share increased 9% to €0.64.

Operating cash flow was €2.48 billion (2015: €2.37 billion), an increase of 5% year-over-year. Free cash flow increased 4% year-over-year to €2.31 billion (2015: €2.23 billion).

SAP S/4HANA

SAP S/4HANA momentum continued in the first quarter as customers increasingly embrace the benefits of running simple and real time. SAP added more than 500 SAP S/4HANA customers in the quarter, of which approximately 30% are net new SAP customers. A growing driver behind the global S/4HANA adoption is SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud (HEC). Customers can migrate their mission-critical processes to the cloud – HEC offers secure and fast access to SAP's new innovation. Benetton, Norton Rose Fulbright, Beiqi Foton Motor and Huaxin Cement selected SAP S/4HANA in the first quarter.

Human Capital Management

SAP continues to gain traction with its cloud-based Human Capital Management solutions. SAP delivers total workforce management solutions globally and provides extensibility with the HANA Cloud Platform. The customer count for SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, which is the core of our Human Capital Management offerings, exceeded 1,100 at the end of the first quarter.

Customer Engagement and Commerce

With SAP's Customer Engagement and Commerce (CEC) solutions customers can build a new, more personalized relationship with their consumers, making it richer and more contextual across all channels. SAP is unique because it also enables businesses to connect the front and back office in real-time and fulfill ecommerce in one end-to-end value chain. CEC cloud subscription and support revenue saw strong double-digit growth in the first quarter.

Business Networks

SAP is leading the charge to a hyperconnected world. SAP's business network solutions which include Ariba, Fieldglass and Concur provide a rich open platform that connects a large ecosystem of customers, suppliers, partners and developers delivering ever expanding content and innovation.

Approximately 2.1 million connected companies trade over \$800 billion of commerce 2 on the Ariba network, approximately 40 million end users process travel and expenses effortlessly with Concur and customers managed over 2.3 million flexible workers in approximately 130 countries with the Fieldglass platform over the past 12 months.

Regional Performance

The Company had a solid performance in the EMEA region, with an 8% increase in Non-IFRS cloud and software revenue. Non-IFRS cloud subscriptions and support revenue grew 49%. In EMEA SAP had solid software license revenue growth.

In the Americas region, the Company grew Non-IFRS cloud and software revenue by 4% and Non-IFRS cloud subscriptions and support revenue by 29%. North America, coming off a very strong fourth quarter in 2015, had a slower than anticipated

¹ New cloud bookings consist of order entry of a given period that is expected to be classified as cloud subscription and support revenue and results from purchases by new customers and from incremental purchases by existing customers. Consequently, orders to renew existing contracts are not included. The order amount must be committed. Consequently, due to their pay-per-use nature, business network transaction fees which do not include a committed minimum consumption are not reflected in the bookings metric (e.g. SAP Ariba and SAP Fieldglass transaction-based fees). Amounts included in the measures are generally annualized.

² Network spend volume is the total value of purchase orders transacted on the Ariba Network in the trailing 12 months. In previous quarters this also included Concur and Fieldglass for which as of the third quarter 2015 separate more relevant metrics are disclosed.

start to the year. In Latin America, in particular in Brazil, the continuing political and macroeconomic instability weighed on the company's first quarter performance.

In the APJ region Non-IFRS cloud and software revenue was up 1%, with Non-IFRS cloud subscriptions and support revenue growing by 26%. SAP's software revenue performance in the region was in line with the Company's expectations given a tough prior year comparison. China was a highlight with double-digit software revenue growth.

Business Outlook 2016

The Company reiterates the following 2016 outlook:

• Based on the continued strong momentum in SAP's cloud business the Company expects full year 2016 non-IFRS cloud subscriptions and support revenue to be in a range of €2.95 - €3.05 billion at constant currencies (2015: €2.30 billion). The upper end of this range represents a growth rate of 33% at constant currencies.
• The Company expects full year 2016 non-IFRS cloud and software revenue to increase by 6% 8% at constant currencies (2015: €17.23 billion).
• The Company expects full-year 2016 non-IFRS operating profit to be in a range of €6.4 billion €6.7 billion at constant currencies (2015: €6.35 billion).

While the Company's full-year 2016 business outlook is at constant currencies, actual currency reported figures are expected to continue to be impacted by exchange rate fluctuations. If exchange rates remain at the March 2016 average level for the rest of the year, the Company expects its non-IFRS cloud and software revenue growth rate as well as its non-IFRS operating profit growth rate to experience a currency benefit in a range of 0 to 2 percentage points for the second quarter 2016 (1 to 3 percentage points for the full year 2016).

Additional Information

Subsequent Events

As of April 1, 2016 SAP has combined its small and medium-sized customers focused solutions SAP Anywhere, SAP Business One and SAP Business ByDesign into one end-to-end organization under the leadership of Executive Board member Steve Singh. In addition, Steve Singh will also be responsible for SAP's healthcare strategy and solutions and continues to be responsible for the SAP Business Networks. This is likely to lead to a change in our segment reporting as of Q2/2016.

General Remarks About this Quarterly Statement

This quarterly statement replaces both of these documents and includes all relevant information of both of these documents. Going forward, we will issue a quarterly statement for each of the four fiscal quarters. Additionally, we will issue, as before, a half year report and a full year integrated report.

1) Adjustments in the revenue line items are for software support revenue, cloud subscriptions and support revenue, and other similarly recurring revenues that entities acquired by SAP would have recognized had they remained stand-alone entities but that SAP is not permitted to recognize as revenue under IFRS as a result of business combination accounting rules. Adjustments in the operating expense line items are for acquisition-related charges, share-based payment expenses, as well as restructuring expenses.

2) Constant currency revenue and operating income figures are calculated by translating revenue and operating income of the current period using the average exchange rates from the previous year's respective period instead of the current period. Constant currency period-over-period changes are calculated by comparing the current year's non-IFRS constant currency numbers with the non-IFRS number of the previous year's respective period.

For a more detailed description of these adjustments and their limitations as well as our constant currency figures, see our Web site www.sap.com/corporateen/investors/newsandreports/reporting-framework.epx under "Non-IFRS Measures, Adjustments and Full-Year Estimates".

Due to rounding, numbers may not add up precisely.
