Financial Highlights Regional Performance Gross Margin Development Tax Rate, EPS & Cash Flow Outlook

Tax rate, EPS & Cash flow

The year-over-year increase mainly resulted from changes in tax exempt income related to Sapphire Ventures.

The year-over-year decline of earnings per share reflects a contribution to financial income by Sapphire Ventures that, due to current market conditions, was significantly lower than in the same period last year.

The decline in free cash flow is predominantly due to lower profitability and adverse working capital impacts in other assets. While tax payments developed positively, smaller negative impacts came from share-based payments as well as capital expenditures and leasing. The increased volume of trade receivables sold in 2022 amounting to €0.8 billion versus €0.5 billion in 2021 had a positive impact on free cash flow.

1) 'Current Cloud Backlog' – or CCB for short gives you the contractually committed cloud revenue we expect to recognize over the upcoming twelve months. The CCB is thus a subset of our Remaining Performance Obligations: Cloud only and 12 months only. Its expansion between two key dates reflects our success in both, contracting new cloud business as well as renewing existing business. So compared to New Cloud Bookings, it is a better, more holistic indicator of our cloud progress.

2) Starting in Q1 2021, SAP is expanding its financial disclosure to provide transparency on the transition of its core ERP business to the cloud. Specifically, SAP discloses current cloud backlog and cloud revenue contributed by SAP S/4HANA Cloud, which represents SAP's cloud offering for core ERP processes. It mainly includes cloud solutions for financial management, supply chain management, engineering and manufacturing, order management and asset management, as well as associated data management, analytics, development and integration capabilities.
