Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 26% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published August 26, 2025
Shares look beaten down, yet many investors still like the story. News that SAP will use NVIDIA RTX PRO servers supports its push into AI, which can keep the company important for big customers. Because the price trend has been weak, we want proof it is turning up. If the market is friendly, the stock could drift back toward its recent average price over the next 0-3 months. Currency swings and company IT budgets are things to watch.
Primary drivers
- Price dropped hard recently, yet many investors remain clearly positive
- Adopting NVIDIA RTX PRO servers, strengthening its AI software push
- Large, established enterprise customer base provides steadier sales
- Needs time for the price trend to heal before confidence can grow
How it played out
SAP: target was not reached in the window
Lyra published SAP on 2025-08-26 at 271.43 for a short-term window. The thesis expected 14% growth toward 309.43. It pointed to a recent hard price drop, still positive investor sentiment, NVIDIA RTX PRO server adoption for its artificial intelligence software push, a large enterprise customer base, and the need for the price trend to heal.
Inside the window, SAP peaked at 281.37 on 2025-10-23, a 3.7% gain. It never reached 309.43. By 2025-11-24, it ended at 238.29. The thesis partially played out on the early bounce, but missed the target.
What happened during the window
On 2025-09-25, the European Commission opened a formal antitrust investigation into SAP over maintenance and support services for on-premises business software. On 2025-10-22, SAP reported third-quarter results, and Investor's Business Daily said revenue and a cloud backlog metric came in below analyst expectations.
