SD Worx, the European leader in HR and payroll solutions, with operations in Romania as well, closed 2025 with strong financial results. Consolidated revenue increased by 10.7% to €1.307 billion, while adjusted EBITDA reached €271.2 million (+16.5%). For the first time, consolidated net profit exceeded the €100 million threshold, reaching €101.4 million (+6.9%).
This performance supports the company’s continued investments in scalable digital and AI platforms and compliant, high-quality solutions for customers across Europe.
Organic growth was driven by the expansion of the product portfolio through major technological innovations. Adoption of digital and AI solutions continued to accelerate: nearly 1.7 million unique users rely on the mysdworx platform for their daily HR and payroll operations. AI-powered tools, ranging from customer service chatbots over AI-enabled coding and compliance tracking to automated reporting assistants, further enhanced efficiency and improved customer experience.
At the same time, SD Worx expanded its European footprint through strategic acquisitions. The acquisition of Socialea strengthened the company’s position in France, the third-largest payroll market in Europe, and facilitated access to the fast-growing SME segment. In Italy, SD Worx acquired Labour Consulting, with deep local payroll and labour advisory expertise in the region of Emilia-Romagna.
“2025 was a pivotal year as we scaled across Europe and accelerated innovation for our customers. With targeted acquisitions, strong local teams and a rapidly expanding digital and AI ecosystem, we are strengthening our position as Europe’s leading HR and payroll solutions provider. Our mission remains unchanged: delivering compliant, user-friendly and personal HR and payroll solutions to our customers, powered by technology and backed by people,” said Kobe Verdonck, CEO of SD Worx.
“Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment marked by slowing growth and more cautious customer decision making, we delivered a strong year. Our core business proved resilient and our disciplined cost management, automation and standardisation efforts, supported increasingly by AI, allowed us to protect margins and strengthen profitability. These results confirm the robustness of our strategy and give us confidence for the future,” added Filip Dierckx, Chairman of the Board of Directors of SD Worx.
In Romania, SD Worx continues to strengthen its role as a strategic partner for companies in HR and payroll administration, consistently investing in its team and in the development of local expertise to support clients’ long-term performance.
“In 2025, we laid the groundwork for accelerated development, focusing on improving efficiency and service quality so that every client in Romania can truly feel the value of working with us — not only at an operational level, but as part of a trusted partnership. We strengthened our internal processes and client relationships, building a solid foundation to better respond to market needs and unlock local potential,” stated Ciprian Chiorean, General Manager of SD Worx Romania.
