SAP - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

SAP
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in SAP SE:

SAP SE has recently seen a significant increase in its stock price, currently trading at $253.81, reflecting strong market interest and potential for growth.
The company reported a year-over-year revenue increase of 9.4%, indicating robust business performance and a growing customer base.
Analysts have a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" for SAP SE, with nine analysts issuing buy ratings, suggesting strong confidence in the company's future performance.
Recent price target upgrades from various analysts, including JMP Securities raising their target to $300.00, indicate positive market sentiment and expectations for continued growth.
SAP SE's strong return on equity of 11.44% demonstrates effective management and profitability, which can be attractive to investors looking for solid financial performance.

SAP
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in SAP SE for these reasons:

The company missed earnings expectations with an EPS of $1.23, falling short of the consensus estimate of $1.31, which may raise concerns about its profitability.
Revenue for the latest quarter was $8.47 billion, below analysts' expectations of $9.25 billion, indicating potential challenges in meeting market demands.
The high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 99.80 suggests that the stock may be overvalued compared to its earnings, which could deter value-focused investors.
Despite recent growth, SAP SE has a relatively low net margin of 8.15%, which may indicate less efficiency in converting revenue into profit compared to competitors.
The company's beta of 1.23 indicates higher volatility compared to the market, which could pose risks for investors seeking stable investments.
