From January to September 2025, SYZYGY AG generated sales of EUR 44 million, representing a 17 percent decline compared to the same period last year. Operating profit (EBIT) was slightly positive at EUR 7,000, resulting in an EBIT margin of 0 percent (previous year: 8 percent).

The decline was mainly due to continued spending restraint by several existing clients in the consulting and performance marketing business, a direct consequence of the difficult macroeconomic situation. In addition, weaker performance by subsidiary Ars Thanea contributed, as its US business suffered from geopolitical uncertainty. Although a slight recovery in the US business became apparent in the third quarter, the original annual plan remains out of reach.

In the core market of Germany, sales amounted to EUR 35.4 million (-18 percent year-on-year), with an EBIT margin of 5 percent. Particularly positive is the development in the core areas of Digital Experience and IT Services, which are progressing according to plan and securing recurring revenues. Germany accounts for around 80 percent of total group revenue.

Sales in the UK and USA rose by 6 percent to EUR 4 million in the 9-month period, with a slight loss and an EBIT margin of -1 percent. In the Poland segment, sales fell by 19 percent year-on-year to EUR 4.8 million, with a slightly positive operating result and an EBIT margin of 1 percent.

Despite a challenging market environment and spending restraint in Germany and the UK, SYZYGY AG is focusing on operational efficiency and targeted future investments – particularly in AI-powered services and innovative Agentic Systems to support clients in this new era.

The SYZYGY Group expects a sales decline of around 17 percent for the 2025 financial year, with an EBIT margin of around 0 percent.
