PSI Group increased new orders by 66.3% to 158 million euros in the first quarter of 2025 (March 31, 2024: 95 million euros) and thus recorded new orders of over one hundred and fifty million euros in one quarter for the first time. At 223 million euros, the order backlog on March 31, 2025 was 5.2% higher than the previous year's figure (March 31, 2024: 212 million euros) despite the sale of the Mobility business. Group revenues improved by 35.1% to 67.9 million euros (March 31, 2024: 50.3 million euros). At 2.1 million euros, the operating result (EBIT) was in line with expectations (March 31, 2024: −14.8 million euros) after being significantly impacted by the cyberattack in the same quarter of the previous year. The consolidated result was correspondingly 0.3 million euros (March 31, 2024: −16.4 million euros).
The Grid & Energy Management segment achieved 35.9% higher revenue of 30.2 million euros (March 31, 2024: 22.2 million euros) and a positive operating result of 1.5 million euros (March 31, 2024: −9.2 million euros).
Revenue in the Process Industries & Metals segment increased by 36.9% to 19.2 million euros (March 31, 2024: 14.0 million euros). The segment's operating result improved to 0.8 million euros (March 31, 2024: −0.7 million euros).
At 7.8 million euros, revenue in the Discrete Manufacturing segment was 28.3% higher than in the previous year (March 31, 2024: 6.1 million euros). The operating result improved to −0.1 million euros (March 31, 2024: −1.2 million euros).
The Logistics segment increased revenue by 39.4% to 8.2 million euros (March 31, 2024: 5.9 million euros) and achieved a balanced operating result (March 31, 2024: −1.3 million euros).
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to 10.6 million euros (March 31, 2024: 15.9 million euros), so that cash and cash equivalents increased to 32.5 million euros compared to the end of 2024 (December 31, 2024: 26.5 million euros), while current financial liabilities were reduced to 8.2 million euros (December 31, 2024: 21.1 million euros)
Compared to 31 December 2024, there have not been any material changes in the Group's assets.
The number of employees in the Group increased slightly to 2,339 (March 31, 2024: 2,335) due to targeted recruitment and the sale of the Mobility division.
The PSI stock ended the first quarter of 2025 with a final price of 25.30 euros, 19.9% above the final 2024 price of 21.10 euros. In the same period, the technology index TecDAX recorded an increase of 5.0%.
The estimate of the corporate risk has not changed since the Annual Report for 31 December 2023.
With record new orders of 158 million euros, the PSI Group has made a good start to 2025 and has won significant major orders from existing customers and orders from new customers in the first quarter. In addition, PSI has taken the first successful steps towards the cloud transformation of its business model and has gained a strategic partner for the transformation process in Google Cloud.
The PSI Executive Board therefore continues to expect growth in new orders and revenues of around 10% for the year as a whole and an adjusted EBIT margin of around 4% despite the investments in the new cloud/SaaS-based products.

The business activities of PSI Software SE and its subsidiaries relate to the development and sale of software systems and products fulfilling the specific needs and requirements of its customers, particularly in the following industries and service lines: utilities, production and logistics. In addition, the Group provides services of all kinds in the field of data processing, sells electronic devices and operates data processing systems.
Since the end of the 2024 financial year, the PSI Group has been divided into the four main business units Grid & Energy Management, Process Industries & Metals, Discrete Manufacturing and Logistics. The company's shares are listed in the Prime Standard segment of the Frankfurt stock exchange.
The company is exposed to a wide range of risks that are similar to other companies active in the dynamic technology sector. Major risks for the development of the PSI Group lie in the success with which it markets its software systems and products, competition from larger companies, the ability to generate sufficient cash flows for future business development as well as in individual risks regarding the integration of subsidiaries, organizational changes and the cooperation with strategic partners.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January 2025 to 31 March 2025 were released for publication by a decision of the management on 28 April 2025.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January 2025 to 31 March 2025 were produced in compliance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not contain all the data and notes prescribed for the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for 31 December 2024.
With regard to the principles of accounting and valuation and especially the application of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), see the group consolidated financial statements for the financial year 2023.
Seasonal effects resulted in the PSI Group operations with regards to the receipt of maintenance revenues in the first quarter of the financial year (deferment of the influences on the result of corresponding incoming payments throughout the year) and significantly greater demand and project accounting in the fourth quarter of the financial year.
After various conditions of the share and purchase agreement dated December 21, 2024, for the sale of 100% of the shares in PSI Transcom GmbH were met, the sale became legally effective on March 5, 2025. Until this date, the subsidiary was allocated to the Other segment.
