Karlsruhe / Berlin, December 19, 2023. IONOS Group SE plans currency-adjusted revenue growth of approx. 11% for fiscal  year 2024  (forecast 2023: approx. EUR 1.42 billion). The Web Presence & Productivity business is expected to grow by 10 – 12% and the Cloud Solutions business by 15 – 17%.

The increase in revenue forecast is therefore higher than previously expected for fiscal year 2024 and is mainly based on even stronger new customer acquisition, successful cross- and up-selling to existing customers, and new products in the area of artificial intelligence (AI). In addition, IONOS introduced new pricing structures in Q3 2023, which will gradually lead to higher value contributions.

The company expects an adjusted EBITDA¹ margin of approximately 28.5% (forecast for 2023: approximately 27.5%), which should generate an adjusted EBITDA of around EUR 450 million. 

For 2025, the company also expects continued strong growth and a further increase in the adjusted EBITDA margin to around 30%.

Achim Weiss, CEO of IONOS Group SE: "Our financial results demonstrate the strength of our business model. We will continue to invest in our brand and expand our product portfolio with innovative AI offerings. At the same time, we will further benefit from economies of scale and thus from efficiency gains."
 

¹ Adjusted for extraordinary expenses, in particular the replacement of systems of the United Internet Group as part of the establishment of the IONOS Group as an independent group, expenses in connection with employee incentive programs, expenses or recharges in connection with the IPO and expenses in connection with reorganization and restructuring measures; the outlook for the development of the adjusted EBITDA is to be considered currency-adjusted.
