The first half of 2025 confirmed that Ailleron remains one of the fastest-growing technology companies in Poland, with rising export sales and an increasingly solid presence in international markets. However, results also show that dynamic revenue growth does not always translate into equally strong profitability. Costs linked to acquisitions, amortization of intangible assets, and foreign exchange effects—particularly the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the Polish zloty—significantly weighed on operating and net profit.
Financial Highlights
- Revenue: PLN 283.2 million (+14% y/y)
- EBITDA: PLN 37.5 million (flat y/y)
- Operating profit: PLN 26.0 million (down from PLN 30.2m)
- Net profit: PLN 23.2 million (vs. PLN 24.7m in 2024)
- Cash position: PLN 57.6 million as of June 2025
Revenue rose by more than PLN 33 million compared to H1 2024, with nearly 90% generated by the Technology Services segment.
EBITDA came in at PLN 37.5 million, stable year on year, showing effective cost control but also highlighting that scaling up has not yet led to proportional improvements in profitability.
Operating profit dropped about 14% y/y, mainly due to amortization of intangible assets linked to acquisitions, such as customer relationships from number8 valued at PLN 86.5 million (amortized over 10 years).
Net profit was down 6% y/y to PLN 23.2 million. Profit attributable to Ailleron S.A. shareholders fell to PLN 7.6 million (from PLN 9.4m), while minority shareholders saw their share rise to PLN 15.6 million.
The company ended June with a solid cash buffer of PLN 57.6 million, ensuring stable liquidity and room for further acquisitions.
Standalone Results – Ailleron S.A.
- Revenue: PLN 34.0 million (vs. PLN 32.8m in 2024)
- Net profit: PLN 4.5 million (vs. -PLN 3.6m loss in 2024)
- EBITDA/Operating profit: still negative, though net results improved thanks to financial gains and dividends.
This suggests that Ailleron S.A. is gradually emerging from a tougher period and improving its financial position, though operational challenges remain.
Segment Analysis
1. Fintech

- Trend: stable, with no strong growth yet
- Characteristics: Focuses on proprietary products for banks, payment firms, and lenders, including digital banking systems, mobile platforms, credit process solutions, and analytics tools.

2. Technology Services
- Revenue: PLN 249.2 million (88% of total, +14–15% y/y)
- Export sales: PLN 216.3 million (76% of group revenue)
- Characteristics: Delivered mainly through Software Mind and subsidiaries; services include IT outsourcing, software development, and digital transformation support for clients in the U.S., Western Europe, and Latin America.
- Profitability: Higher than Fintech but pressured by acquisition amortization and USD/PLN weakness.
Segment Comparison – H1 2025

|---|---|---|

| Share of group sales | 12% | 88% |

Outlook
Ailleron’s H1 2025 results depict a company in steady growth mode, with revenue up 14% y/y to PLN 283.2m, driven primarily by Technology Services. Still, operating and net profit fell amid currency headwinds and acquisition amortization.
A key factor was the 11.8% decline in the USD/PLN rate, which reduced the real value of export sales and margins.
Despite this, Ailleron remains financially healthy, with strong liquidity, a growing customer base, and global diversification. Future success will depend on managing currency risks and accelerating the development of the Fintech segment, which has the potential to become a second growth pillar alongside Technology Services.
