Key Factors That May Impact Future Performance:

Cloud Market:

Consequently, we expect the segment to reach a revenue of $7.4 billion by the end of 2019. Further, at the end of 2018, the Cloud Backlog increased 30% and exceeded €10 Billion ($11.4 billion)

Innovation:

• SAP is at the forefront of innovation in the industry. Applications like SAP S/4HANA, Human Capital Management (HCM), SAP Leonardo, SAP Cloud Platform, and SAP Data Management Solutions are some examples. The company has diversified its applications to help businesses run intelligently and improve the customer experience.

Trefis has an estimate of $122 for SAP’s stock. Expectations from the cloud segment, increasing reach, and continuous innovation are expected to push the stock price higher over time.
