The new strategy aims to transform GFT into a fully AI-centric company. CEO Marco Santos emphasizes the need to act proactively to seize the opportunities of digital transformation. Strategic initiatives include focusing on Tier 1 clients, developing a modern global delivery platform and investing in high-value offerings such as the generative AI product "AI Impact". This product has already achieved significant productivity gains in customer projects and has been recognized by major platforms such as Amazon Web Services and Microsoft.
n 2024, business with banks and industrial clients grew particularly strongly, while the insurance sector remained stable. GFT recorded above-average growth in Europe, particularly in Germany and Spain, and achieved revenue growth of 18 percent in Brazil. The integration of the acquired Sophos Solutions was successfully completed and led to new strategic orders.
For 2025, GFT expects revenue growth of 7 percent to around EUR 930 million, but a decline in adjusted EBIT of 12 percent to around EUR 68 million due to higher investments and efficiency measures. Despite these challenges, the equity ratio remains stable at 42 percent and the Board of Directors proposes a dividend of EUR 0.50 per share.
Overall, GFT shows a solid financial development and a clear growth strategy based on the use of AI technologies to strengthen its market position and increase profitability in the long term.
