Financial risks · Forecasts depend on assumptions. Investing can result in a total loss.

Published models are independently created by users. Scenarios and forecasts are hypothetical and depend on assumptions; actual outcomes may differ substantially. BalanceCheat does not verify or endorse the accuracy or reasonableness of user models and does not provide personalized investment advice. These tools support modeling, education, research and discussion. Do not base investment decisions solely on a published model. Investing can result in a total loss. Authors must comply with applicable laws, including relevant investment-recommendation and conflict-of-interest disclosures. Labels and disclaimers do not create a regulatory exemption.

Results were calculated by the publisher’s local engine. The server validates the snapshot structure but does not independently recalculate the financial model. Forking verifies results in the local engine.

Modeling Rationale

My main question with IONOS is how much of its recurring revenue can turn into sustainable free cash flow after accounting for the investment needed to keep the business growing. Web hosting provides a relatively stable revenue base, while cloud infrastructure offers stronger growth potential. However, cloud expansion also requires substantial investment in servers, capacity and technology, often before the additional revenue arrives. I think the balance between growth, margins and capital intensity is more important than revenue growth alone. The September 2026 transformation program adds another variable. Management expects significant cost savings, but I don't assume these will translate directly into higher profits. My Base Case reflects a gradual implementation, with part of the savings reinvested in cloud and AI capabilities. The model separates restructuring expenses from actual cash payments to better understand their effect on profitability and liquidity. Refinancing is another important consideration. IONOS's existing EUR800 million bank loan matures in December 2026, and the model assumes new financing under explicitly stated conditions. These are my assumptions, not confirmed refinancing terms. Ultimately, I'm interested in whether IONOS can grow its cloud business, maintain attractive hosting margins and generate enough cash to support investment, debt repayments and shareholder distributions. The three scenarios explore how different operating and financing outcomes could affect that picture.

Key assumptions

The forecast starts with IONOS's audited December 2025 balance sheet and covers FY2026–FY2030. Hosting and cloud are modeled separately to reflect their different growth profiles and investment requirements. In the Base Case, I assume initial hosting revenue growth of 7.5% and cloud growth of 18%. The Bear Case uses 5% and 12%, while the Bull Case assumes 9% and 22%. Related-party services are modeled separately. I have avoided introducing unsupported churn rates or product-level revenue assumptions. The September 2026 transformation program is incorporated into all three scenarios. Base assumes EUR18 million of gross annual savings in 2027, EUR26 million in 2028 and EUR30 million from 2029, with 60% reinvested. Bear assumes slower implementation and 75% reinvestment, while Bull reaches EUR30 million earlier and reinvests 50%. The EUR35 million restructuring charge in 2026 is included across all scenarios, with an additional EUR5 million in Bear. Cash payments are modeled separately to avoid counting the expense twice. Capital investment remains an important part of the forecast. Base assumes EUR108 million of cash investment in 2026, increasing to EUR141 million by 2030, including software and replacement of expiring leased capacity. Working capital reflects customer prepayments and deferred acquisition costs, while existing lease obligations, financing and distributions are modeled separately. For valuation, I use each scenario's projected 2028 EBIT and net debt, together with a 15x EV/EBIT multiple as a common starting assumption. This is my own valuation assumption rather than an observed peer-group average. The equity bridge also considers the parent cash pool, minority investments, the disposal group and minority interests. The model uses a dated pro forma basic share count of 134,691,459. The purpose of the three scenarios is to understand how different growth rates, investment requirements and operating efficiencies influence the financial results. All assumptions can be reviewed and changed in the model.

Notes

**Sources and reporting periods** Last updated: 25 October 2026. The analysis is based primarily on IONOS's Annual Reports for 2023–2025, the H1 2026 Financial Report and investor presentation, the September 2026 transformation announcement, and the July 2026 share buyback completion notice. H1 2026, published on 6 August, was the latest financial report available at the research cutoff. Q3 results were scheduled for 12 November 2026. Historical income statements, balance sheets, cash flows and equity information are included in the model's embedded comments. The original financial reports are available through IONOS Investor Relations. **Historical comparability** The historical figures require some care. FY2023 includes AdTech, while FY2024–2025 income figures reflect continuing operations. Historical cash flow statements also include discontinued operations. As a result, the reported periods are not directly comparable as a continuous organic-growth series. The model does not assume an undisclosed sale price or transaction date for Sedo. **Cash flow and accounting** IONOS's reported free cash flow definition differs from some of the native model's cash flow classifications. These differences are reconciled in the accompanying financial reference material. H1 2026 free cash flow included EUR18.207 million of asset-sale proceeds, which I have not treated as recurring operating cash generation. Forecast operating expenses exclude depreciation and amortization, which are recognized separately. Credit losses and share-based compensation are simplified rather than reconstructed through detailed accounting schedules. **Valuation and financing** The model uses Xetra ticker IOS and ISIN DE000A3E00M1. The share count is based on the 30 June 2026 basic share count, adjusted for disclosed repurchases completed through 10 July. It assumes no additional treasury-share deliveries and should not be interpreted as a current fully diluted share count. Stock Analysis uses financial projections and valuation inputs referenced to December 2028, rather than a discounted present-day share-price target. Refinancing terms, tax timing, useful asset lives and future shareholder distributions remain assumptions. I've tried to make the main drivers transparent through the embedded comments. The model is intended to be explored, challenged and forked, particularly if you have a different view of IONOS's cloud growth, capital requirements or cash generation.

Methodology
EV / EBIT on FY2028 model-linked earnings, valued at 31 December 2028. This allows time for the transformation and cloud investment to mature while retaining depreciation. EBITDA alone would hide the infrastructure cost. The common private 15x multiple is an independent assumption, equivalent to a 6.7% pre-tax operating earnings yield before growth and the cash bridge. It is not an observed peer median. Test 12x–18x and the cash-flow yield in the reference pack; no DCF or terminal-value assumption is needed. Bear and Bull use the same multiple to isolate operating differences. Model net debt includes all bank and existing lease debt, less bank cash, at end-2028. The separate EUR89.587m bridge adds the EUR81.330m parent cash-pool claim, EUR0.816m associates, EUR5.028m Entri stake and EUR2.564m held-for-sale net assets, then subtracts EUR0.151m minority interest. These book-value assumptions may need haircuts; they are not cash proceeds. No second lease deduction. Shares: 140,000,000 issued less 5,054,545 treasury at 30 June 2026 less 253,996 remaining March-program purchases through 10 July = 134,691,459 pro forma basic shares. No intervening employee delivery is assumed; this is not a verified current Fully Diluted count. H1 weighted diluted minus basic shares were 1,067,000. Adding that illustrative increment reduces a per-share value by about 0.8%, but it is not an exact outstanding award calculation. Future compensation is charged as a cash-equivalent cost, not also counted as projected dilution. No market price, required return or scenario probability is supplied. Future-date conditional values are not current price targets. Public visitors enter their own valuation assumptions.

Cash & Cash Equivalents
Cash follows earnings, working capital, investment, debt and distributions. No automatic revolver or balancing cash target is enabled. December 2026 refinancing is assumed, not confirmed. Removing the new facility tests the funding gap directly. The parent cash-pool claim and AdTech cash are not counted as bank cash.

Issuer CFO excludes cash loan interest, which sits in financing; native CFO includes interest. H1 2026 FCF EUR126.413m includes EUR18.207m asset sales; without those proceeds it is EUR108.206m. The known H1 sale is included once in 2026; no later repeat is forecast. Native FCF is not the issuer definition. Stock FCFF excludes financing; FCFE includes net borrowing and lease principal. Neither is a dividend promise.
Equity Value
Reported total equity, EURk: 2023 −2,781; 2024 158,760; 2025 299,013. The 2025 bridge is opening 158,760 + profit 229,700 − OCI 14,870 − buybacks 59,534 − share-plan delivery 15,621 + share compensation reserve 578 = 299,013. Native forecasts have no invented OCI or equity plug. Known buybacks reduce cash and equity; later EUR75m annual dividends are assumptions, not guidance.
Gross profit
Forecast Gross Profit is before all D&A. The issuer allocates depreciation across functions, so this subtotal is not comparable with IFRS gross profit. Transformation savings appear as a clearly named cost offset; EBITDA and EBIT retain their aggregate economic effect once.
Obj 1
Hosting, domains, email and productivity remain the larger business. I use revenue growth rather than inventing separate churn and ARPU inputs: the reported customer count covers more than this division. Base starts at 7.5% growth, then eases to 5% by 2030.
Obj 10
EUR4m per year is deliberately below reported other income. I do not repeat asset-sale gains, exceptional grants or recharges to make the forecast work.
Obj 11
Base realizes EUR18m in 2027, EUR26m in 2028 and EUR30m from 2029. Bear is slower; Bull reaches EUR30m in 2028. This positive line is a cost offset in the native model, not new customer revenue or an IFRS other-income forecast. No second workforce saving is embedded in the cost ratios.
Obj 12
I reinvest 60% of gross savings in Base, 75% in Bear and 50% in Bull. The input is linked directly to the savings line: reducing execution also reduces the associated budget. Server capex remains separate from this operating spend.
Obj 13
The announced EUR35m charge is booked in 2026 in all cases. Bear adds EUR5m in 2027 for overruns. Base pays EUR10m in 2026 and EUR25m in 2027; the unpaid balance sits in the transformation provision. Payment dates are assumptions, not company guidance.
Obj 14
EUR12m in 2026 reflects continued separation and billing-system work; Base falls to EUR5m in 2027 and EUR2m thereafter. I do not treat these costs as permanently irrelevant simply because management adjusts them out.
Obj 15
A EUR9m annual cash-equivalent budget replaces future share-award expense in this planning model. It avoids treating compensation as free. This is not an IFRS SBC forecast: no future equity reserve credit, treasury delivery or dilution is projected. See Stock methodology for the dilution sensitivity.
Obj 16
Base uses 18 days of sales; Bear 23 and Bull 17. The reported EUR57.4m opening trade balance is after impairment. Collection days apply to collectible receivables. Credit losses are a separate cash-equivalent expense; there is no cumulative allowance buildup. Larger cloud contracts can extend collection times.
Obj 18
Base holds 52 days of cash delivery cost. This broadly preserves the opening supplier balance instead of financing growth with a large, unexplained extension of payment terms.
Obj 19
Opening EUR37.7m rose to EUR52.0m at June. Base ends 2026 at 3.5% of sales and settles at 3.4%; Bear stays at 4%. Higher prepayments consume cash even when the P&L expense ratio looks stable.
Obj 2
Cloud grew to EUR102.2m in H1 2026. Base assumes 18% growth for the full year, then 18%, 16%, 14% and 12%. Faster adoption needs servers and support capacity; higher sales do not come with free infrastructure.
Obj 20
EUR81.330m is held constant. It is a claim on United Internet, not unrestricted bank cash. Stock adds it separately at book value; users can haircut it. No new cash-pool transfers or interest on this balance are assumed.
Obj 21
EUR15.407m is frozen with the corresponding EUR12.843m liability. No sale date, price or disposal gain is invented. Forecast earnings are continuing operations; Sedo’s H1 2026 loss remains in the historical reference, not recurring hosting earnings.
Obj 23
Annual subscriptions bring cash ahead of revenue. Base retains current deferred revenue at 8.1% of sales; Bear falls to 7.3%, Bull rises to 8.4%. This is a cash-timing assumption, not an extra revenue stream.
Obj 24
The provision is expense less cash paid to date. Base closes 2026 at EUR25m and clears it in 2027. Bear carries EUR30m then EUR10m, while Bull settles by 2027. Reducing this balance pays cash; it does not create a second restructuring expense.
Obj 26
Opening EUR120.529m includes tax, payroll, marketing accruals and EUR2.961m of unsettled 2025 buybacks. That buyback payable clears in 2026; other balances stay fixed. Its payment is separate from newly recognized 2026 repurchases.
Obj 27
Opening owned PPE EUR198.289m excludes lease assets. Base cash capex is EUR95m in 2026 and EUR105–115m thereafter, well above FY2025. It covers maintenance and cloud growth; the company does not disclose a reliable split. Existing assets have an assumed 3.5-year remaining life, new assets five years.
Obj 28
An additional EUR5m, 8m, 10m, 12m and 14m in Base funds replacement capacity as existing leases run down. It is cash investment, not a second lease payment. New non-cash leases are not simulated; this conservative substitute prevents lease expiry from becoming a free cash-flow uplift.
Obj 29
Opening right-of-use assets EUR95.509m run off over an assumed six-year blended remaining life. Existing lease interest and principal are separate. This is an aggregate schedule, not the company’s IFRS 16 contract ledger.
Obj 3
Related-party revenue fell to EUR17.5m in H1. I assume EUR35m for 2026 and EUR30m thereafter. These services are kept separate from customer growth so the wind-down does not distort the hosting and cloud assumptions.
Obj 30
Opening EUR122.762m includes acquired customer relationships and software, not goodwill. A 5.5-year blended remaining life and five-year new life are estimates. Base invests EUR8–12m annually in software; this is excluded from operating budgets, so development spending is not counted twice.
Obj 31
Opening goodwill EUR820.588m is held constant. There is no assumed acquisition or impairment; an impairment would change reported earnings and book equity without itself using cash.
Obj 32
EUR30.257m opening deferred costs grow with revenue at 2.3% in Base. Their increase is an operating cash use. This is distinct from software investment and current service prepayments.
Obj 35
The EUR800m face loan matures on 15 December 2026 at 4.67%. Opening carrying debt is EUR798.916m. It is repaid at maturity; the EUR1.084m remaining discount is modeled as a separate settlement charge. Refinancing below is an explicit assumption, not a confirmed facility.
Obj 36
Base assumes EUR700m raised on 15 December 2026 at 5%, with annual EUR100m repayment from 2027. Bear needs EUR800m at 6.5% and repays EUR50m annually; Bull EUR700m at 4.5%, repaying EUR100m. These are funding assumptions, not announced terms. No automatic revolver fills a shortfall.
Obj 37
Opening lease liabilities EUR104.465m follow notes 37/47, which reconcile; one financial-instrument table prints EUR104.555m. Assumed principal is EUR16m yearly, interest 4.9% on opening debt. The full liability is in Stock net debt and is never deducted twice.
Obj 38
2026 includes EUR1.084m to bridge the old carrying amount to EUR800m cash repayment, plus assumed new-loan fees. This small settlement is expensed and paid in operating cash flow in the annual model. Actual IFRS amortized-cost and financing classifications would differ.
Obj 39
A 1.5% yield on opening bank cash is assumed across cases. It excludes the parent cash pool and avoids earning a full year’s interest on cash generated only at year-end.
Obj 4
The 31% Base ratio covers cash delivery costs before depreciation. It stays constant: the transformation savings appear separately, so they are not also hidden in a falling hosting cost ratio. These are modeling costs, not a reported divisional margin.
Obj 40
31.5% in Base and Bull; 33% in Bear. Forecast tax is paid in the same year, with no assumed cash refund on losses. Deferred-tax balances remain fixed; this is not a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction tax calculation.
Obj 41
H1 cash buybacks were EUR83.981m; remaining disclosed purchases cost EUR7.294m. After the opening EUR2.961m payable, new 2026 equity repurchases are EUR88.314m. From 2027 I assume EUR75m annual dividends, not additional buybacks. Future shares stay fixed; the payout is a modeling choice.
Obj 42
H1 cash proceeds EUR18.207m less net gain EUR1.794m imply EUR16.413m book value sold. The annual model assigns that disposal to owned assets and classifies the gain below EBIT, with the cash in investing. This is a transparent aggregate allocation; no further asset sales are forecast.
Obj 5
Base starts at 42% of cloud sales and improves to 40% as capacity fills. Bear keeps a higher 46% cost ratio; Bull reaches 38%. This is a utilization assumption, separate from the announced workforce savings. Depreciation and new server investment are charged elsewhere.
Obj 7
Base spends 22.1% of revenue, close to EUR315m in 2026 before D&A. Customer acquisition is not free. Prepaid contract costs are modeled separately so a marketing payment need not become an expense in the same year.
Obj 8
EUR85m in 2026, growing by roughly 4% annually in Base. This includes the continuing platform and support organization before the separate transformation offset. AI reinvestment is additional, not buried in this budget.
Obj 9
1.1% of sales in Base, versus about 1.2% in FY2025. Bear uses 1.4%. Credit losses are treated as a cash-equivalent operating expense, while receivable days describe collectible balances. No ever-growing allowance or later recovery is assumed; this is not an IFRS impairment ledger.
Opening Balances
Audited opening date: 31 December 2025. Assets EUR1,570.142m, equity EUR299.013m. EURk display means 1 = EUR1,000. Reported history is available in the Revenue, Total assets, Operating cash flow and Equity comments. Forecasts are continuing operations; held-for-sale balances are frozen, without a forecast Sedo sale or future profit.
Revenue
Reported income, EURk: 2023 | 2024 | 2025. 2023 includes AdTech; 2024 and 2025 are continuing operations. Sources: AR2024 p.92; AR2025 pp.38,100. Do not read the 2023-to-2024 drop as organic contraction. Revenue: 1423734 | 1248070 | 1316894 Cost of sales: -737938 | -539416 | -534496 Gross profit: 685796 | 708654 | 782398 Selling: -318647 | -318201 | -327145 Administration: -97144 | -96405 | -101182 Credit impairment: -14145 | -17035 | -15390 Other expense: -14799 | -16023 | -13667 Other income: 36411 | 14725 | 30641 EBIT: 277472 | 275715 | 355655 Finance cost: -93784 | -77940 | -61260 Finance income: 31875 | 5411 | 1861 Associates: -251 | -325 | -325 Pre-tax profit: 215312 | 202861 | 295931 Tax: -41066 | -73303 | -93574 Income in displayed perimeter: 174246 | 129558 | 202357 Discontinued income separately reported: not separately restated | 40114 | 27343 Total group income: 174246 | 169672 | 229700 DA: 107908 | 111716 | 108434 EBITDA: 385380 | 387431 | 464089 SBC adjustment: 5879 | 5692 | 4237 Standalone adjustment: 9478 | 10394 | 11598 IPO adjustment: -11719 | 0 | 0 Consulting adjustment: 0 | 0 | 1480 Severance adjustment: 1278 | 5889 | 3747 Total EBITDA adjustments: 4916 | 21975 | 21063 Adjusted EBITDA: 390296 | 409406 | 485152 Forecasts begin in 2026. H1 revenue was EUR701.117m; August guidance is 8% currency-adjusted growth (9% excluding intercompany) and EUR530m adjusted EBITDA. The native forecast uses nominal EUR assumptions; no separate FX forecast is implied.
Share Capital
The native contributed-capital subtotal is reduced by cash buyback events. It is not the legal issued share capital or a treasury-share register. IONOS issued capital remains EUR140m in the reported reference; Stock uses the separate dated outstanding-share bridge.
