Companies in Asia Pacific Accelerate SAP Modernization

Companies in Asia Pacific Accelerate SAP Modernization

Organizations pursue cloud transitions, data migration, AI readiness while minimizing risk, ISG Provider Lens® report says

SYDNEY–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Enterprises across Asia Pacific are carrying out disciplined SAP transformation initiatives in compressed timelines as platform transitions become unavoidable, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm.

The 2026 ISG Provider Lens® SAP Ecosystem report for Asia Pacific finds that many organizations are adopting SAP S/4HANA and cloud-centric operating models as the end of support for ERP Central Component systems approaches in 2027. As they carry out these migrations, they are focused on system stability, auditability and long-term upgrade readiness.

“Enterprises in Asia Pacific are approaching SAP transformation with more rigor and clarity as timelines tighten,” said Michael Gale, partner and regional leader, ISG ANZ and Asia Pacific. “They place a high value on structured execution to avoid disruptions and ensure long-term resilience.”

Enterprises in the region are embracing clean core principles and eliminating unnecessary customization to keep their central SAP systems stable. Organizations are standardizing business processes while adding enhancements through SAP Business Technology Platform extensions to preserve upgrade flexibility. Teams are also requiring detailed documentation of design decisions and clear separation between standard functions and differentiated capabilities.

Cloud adoption models vary across the region, reflecting different regulatory and operational environments. Enterprises in Australia and New Zealand are embracing cloud-native tools and public cloud architectures aligned with hyperscaler ecosystems. In contrast, many companies in India and Southeast Asia are building hybrid or private cloud environments due to data residency requirements and the complexity of local business operations.

Enterprises in Asia Pacific are cautiously integrating SAP Business AI capabilities into their core processes, such as workforce productivity, supply-chain planning and forecasting, while requiring explainable models, transparent audit trails and human oversight of automated decisions. Most organizations carrying out data migration in the region prefer selective data transitions for greater flexibility and reduced disruption. This approach allows them to retain critical historical data while lowering migration risk, though it requires strong data harmonization and early remediation planning, ISG says.

“Companies in Asia Pacific are looking to AI for significant operational improvements but want to retain control over AI deployments from the start,” said Maharshi Pandya, senior lead analyst, ISG, and lead author of the report. “By helping enterprises prepare for and carry out AI implementations responsibly, providers help clients maintain stability and lay the groundwork for future capabilities.”

The report also explores other trends in the SAP ecosystem in Asia Pacific, including increasing reliance on SAP Cloud Application Lifecycle Management and a growing enterprise emphasis on auditability and system stability during multi-country transformation programs.

For more insights into the challenges faced by enterprises in Asia Pacific using SAP, plus ISG’s advice for addressing them, see the ISG Provider Lens Focal Points briefing here.

The report evaluates the capabilities of 34 providers across three quadrants: SAP S4/HANA System Transformation, SAP Application Managed Services and SAP Business AI and Business Technology Platform (BTP) Services

It names Accenture, Capgemini, Deloitte, HCLTech, IBM, Infosys, TCS, Tech Mahindra and Wipro as Leaders in all three quadrants. DXC Technology and NTT DATA are named as Leaders in two quadrants each.

In addition, Atos is named as a Rising Star — a company with a “promising portfolio” and “high future potential” by ISG’s definition — in two quadrants. Hitachi Digital Services is named as a Rising Star in one quadrant.

In the area of customer experience, Infosys is named the global ISG CX Star Performer for 2026 among SAP ecosystem providers. Infosys earned the highest customer satisfaction scores in ISG’s Voice of the Customer survey, part of the ISG Star of Excellence™ program, the premier quality recognition for the technology and business services industry.

REMINDER: Aldeyra Therapeutics, Inc. Investors With Significant Losses Must Act By May 29, 2026

NEW YORK, April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kirby McInerney LLP reminds Aldeyra Therapeutics, Inc. (“Aldeyra” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:ALDX) investors of the May 29, 2026 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a pending federal securities class action. Courts do not consider applications filed after this deadline. The lead plaintiff oversees the litigation on behalf of the class and may influence key decisions, including litigation strategy and settlement. Courts regularly appoint individual investors as lead plaintiffs, not only institutions.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired Aldeyra securities, have information, or would like to learn more, please contact Lauren Molinaro of Kirby McInerney LLP by email at [email protected], or fill out the form below, to discuss your rights or interests.

[CONTACT THE FIRM IF YOU SUFFERED A LOSS]

What Is The Lawsuit About?

The lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased securities during the period of November 3, 2023 through March 16, 2026, inclusive (“the Class Period”). The lawsuit alleges that Aldeyra failed to disclose that (1) the results of the reproxalap (an Aldeyra drug candidate) clinical trials were inconsistent; and (2) the inconsistency of the results rendered any purported positive findings from these trials unreliable and not meaningful.

On March 17, 2026, the Company filed with the SEC a current report on Form 8-K, announcing receipt of a Complete Response Letter from the FDA, stating that there is “a lack of substantial evidence consisting of adequate and well-controlled investigations … that the drug product will have the effect it purports or is represented to have under the conditions of use prescribed, recommended, or suggested in its proposed labeling” and that “the application has failed to demonstrate efficacy in adequate and well controlled studies in the treatment of signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.” The Complete Response Letter also stated that the “inconsistency of study results raises serious concerns about the reliability and meaningfulness of the positive findings” and that “the totality of evidence from the completed clinical trials does not support the effectiveness of the product.” On this news, the price of Aldeyra shares declined by $2.99 per share, or approximately 71%, from $4.23 per share on March 16, 2026 to close at $1.24 on March 17, 2026.

The firm’s efforts on behalf of shareholders in securities litigation have resulted in recoveries totaling billions of dollars.

InterCure Announces 2025 Results with NIS 270 Million in Revenue and Positive Operating Cash Flow

The Company reported over NIS 270 million in revenue, NIS 37 million in Net loss, NIS 47 million in Adjusted EBITDA and NIS 17 million in positive operating cash flow, reflecting strong resilience and consistent profitability, with a twelfth consecutive half-year of positive Adjusted EBITDA, as the Company continues to recover from the impact of the October 7, 2023 events 

NEW YORK and HERZLIYA, Israel, April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — InterCure Ltd. (NASDAQ: INCR) (TASE: INCR) (“InterCure” or the “Company”), today announced its financial and operating results for 2025. All amounts are expressed in New Israeli Shekels (NIS), unless otherwise noted.

FY2025 Financial Highlights and Milestones

  Revenue of over NIS 270 million, an increase of 13% compared to 2024 and NIS 140 million for the second half of 2025, an increase of 24% compared to the second half of 2024, higher than NIS 265 million estimated at the preliminary 2025 results.
  Net loss of NIS 37 million, compared to NIS 73 million in 2024, primarily reflecting non-cash provisions related to Bazalet debt impermeant and the impact of the war.
  Adjusted EBITDA of NIS 47 million, an increase of over 90% compared to NIS 24 million for 2024, representing 17% of revenue and marking the Company’s twelfth consecutive half-year of positive Adjusted EBITDA.1
  Positive cash flow from operations of NIS 17 million, compared to negative cash flow of NIS 67 million for 2024. Additionally During 2025, the Company repaid loans of over NIS 35 million.
  Cash on hand
2 of NIS 49 million as of December 31, 2025, compared to NIS 77 million as of December 31, 2024.
  Shareholders’ equity of NIS 397 million as of December 31, 2025.



1”
Adjusted EBITDA” means EBITDA for the Company’s cannabis sector, adjusted for changes in the fair value of inventory, share-based payment expense, impairment losses (and gains) on financial assets, and other expenses (or income). Other income, net includes war-related damage compensation from the tax authorities, changes to allowance for credit risk, impairment of inventory and excludes non-cannabis sector expenses. EBITDA means net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
2” Including restricted cash


Operational and Strategic Highlights


  

  During 2025, as the recovery process progressed, the Company resumed production, importation and sales from the Nir Oz facility, delivering first batches since the October 7, 2023 attack and the war in Gaza. As of the fourth quarter of 2025, the recovery process is being extended beyond the originally planned timeline alongside the excepted receipt of additional compensation advances and the Company is currently focused on the recovery of the genetic bank. 
  Launched a record of more than 75 new GMP SKUs (Stock Keeping Unit) during 2025, with premium medical products that have established category-leading positions, the first major product launch since October 2023.
  Expanded the Company’s partnership strategy through an exclusive partnership agreement with premier cannabis operators Purplefarm, and others.
  During 2025, the Company continued to execute its global expansion strategy, and for the first time, revenues in the second half of 2025 included significant contributions from the German market.
The Company expects this trend to continue into 2026, with the primum branded product launches anticipated in the German and other markets.
  During the fourth quarter of 2025, Alex Rabinovitch, the Company’s CEO and Chairman, acquired over 500,000 shares of the Company showing a vote of confidence. In addition, the Company was informed that Yaron Jacobi, a highly regarded investor, has become a significant shareholder and currently holds approximately 7% of the Company’s outstanding shares. 
  In September 2025, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire Botanico Ltd. (ISHI), a strategic acquisition expected to strengthen InterCure’s primum genetics, advanced cultivation technologies, and international market opportunities. Botanico commenced operations at the cultivation facility and the Company anticipates revenues of over NIS 30 million during the second half of 2026 upon closing of the transaction. 
  In November 2025, the Company entered into strategic investment and collaboration agreements with Cannasoul R&D Ltd., acquiring a 28% ownership stake with an exclusive path to increase its holdings to 51% within two years. We believe that the partnership enhances the Company’s research and pharmaceutical capabilities and supports its positioning in the evolving U.S. cannabis market. 
  The Company continues to monitor regulatory developments in the United States regarding potential cannabis regulations post rescheduling and believes it is strategically positioned to benefit from the evolving market. 
  Regarding the restructuring proceedings initiated by Bazelet, the Company continues to monitor the related legal developments and explore strategic business options. In parallel, the Company commenced initial production at an additional facility and reached understanding to maintain ongoing production activities with Bazelet under the updated stay-of-proceedings order. 
  The Company received a total of NIS 82 million in compensation advances from Israeli authorities for war-related damages, as part of a total submitted damages3 claim of NIS 251 million. The Company continues to work closely with Israeli authorities to secure full compensation for damages caused by the October 7, 2023 attack and the war in Gaza. 



Alexander Rabinovitch, CEO and Chairman of InterCure,:

“We believe that 2025 marked a year of disciplined execution and accelerating recovery for InterCure, and that we delivered strong momentum in the second half of the year, with nearly 20% revenue growth, while maintaining positive Adjusted EBITDA for the twelfth consecutive half-year. Importantly, we generated NIS 17 million in positive operating cash flow, supporting debt repayment and strengthening the Company’s financial position.

During the year, we achieved a significant operational milestone by resuming production at our Nir Oz facility and delivering our first batches since the October 7, 2023 events. At the same time, we launched a record number of new products, which we believe reinforces our leadership in the premium medical cannabis category.

The rehabilitation of the Nir Oz site is extending beyond the originally planned timeline and remains a complex, resource-intensive process, progressing in line with the receipt of additional compensation advances.

We also achieved a key milestone with our first meaningful revenues in the German market, supporting the continued execution of our global expansion strategy across Germany and additional markets throughout 2026. The anticipated launch of operations under the Botanico transaction, together with our strategic collaboration with Cannasoul, is expected to further enhance our pharmaceutical platform and global positioning.

In parallel, we are closely monitoring regulatory developments, including recent statements from U.S. authorities recognizing the medical value of cannabis. We believe that these developments, alongside evolving frameworks in the United States and Europe, further support our strategic positioning to leverage our vertically integrated model, scientific leadership, and international partnerships to drive long-term value for patients and shareholders.”
