Exasol publishes figures for Q1 2025 – Financial results within expectations and strategic direction
In the first quarter of 2025, overall ARR declined slightly by 2.2% to EUR 40.0 million (Q1 2024: EUR 40.9 million), in line with expectations and strategic direction. This decline is primarily linked to contractual downsell with a major customer in a non-focus-vertical. Revenue increased by 25.3% to EUR 12.4 million (Q1 2024: EUR 9.9 million), including EUR 2.9 million (Q1 2024: EUR 0 million) billed on a one-time basis for providing hardware and services to existing customers. Consequently, both EBITDA and Net Income were positively influenced, with EBITDA rising to EUR 1.3 million (Q1 2024: EUR 0.3 million) and net income reaching EUR 1.0 million (Q1 2024: EUR -0.2 million). Due to the strong operational performance, cash and cash equivalents increased from EUR 15.0 million at the end of fiscal year 2024 to EUR 23.2 million by the end of the first quarter of 2025. “The sustainably achieved profitability supports us in successfully executing our strategic shift towards the defined focus-verticals. Geopolitical uncertainties are increasingly highlighting the importance of data security and data sovereignty in customers’ decisions regarding database infrastructure. As one of the few European companies in our market segment, we thereby have a competitive advantage in our core markets,” said Jörg Tewes, CEO of Exasol AG. Exasol confirms its forecast for fiscal year 2025, expecting ARR and revenue growth in the mid-single-digit percentage range and EBITDA growth of at least 50% to EUR 3 million to EUR 4 million. The guidance takes into account that strong double-digit ARR growth will continue in focus-verticals. Concurrently, Exasol anticipates continuing opposing effects from churn by companies in non-focus-verticals throughout fiscal year 2025. This influence will diminish mid-term, driven by an increasing portfolio share of focus-verticals. As in fiscal year 2024, the company continues to expect a temporarily declining ARR in the first half-year, before new business once again drives net ARR growth in the second half-year.
