Sapiens International Shows Strength Amid Broader Sector Decline
Sapiens International (SPNS) has demonstrated notable resilience in 2025, with shares decreasing only 2.3% year to date. This is a significant outperformance compared to the broader Zacks Computer & Technology sector, which has seen a decline of 14%. SPNS attributes this strength to its steady recurring revenues, a growing customer base, and robust partnerships that include strong players like Microsoft (MSFT) and Cognizant (CTSH).
Solid Revenue Growth in 2024
In 2024, Sapiens’ recurring and reoccurring revenues from software products and post-production services rose by 14.1% from 2023, reaching $390 million. This revenue source now makes up 72% of the company’s total income.
The launch of StatementPro Multi-Company Operations stands out as a strategic development. It allows all Sapiens Financial & Compliance (F&C) customers to streamline statutory reporting across multiple statements and companies, leading to reduced administrative burdens and increased productivity. Additionally, Sapiens recently released its latest products, Sapiens IllustrationPro and Sapiens ApplicationPro, which enhance automation, risk intelligence, and efficiency for agents and advisors.
Peer Comparisons Highlight SPNS’s Performance
These advancements have enabled Sapiens to outperform peers such as Clearwater Analytics (CWAN), whose shares have dropped 15.8% year to date. Clearwater provides a comprehensive suite of solutions, including accounting and reporting, performance measurement, and risk analytics, for asset managers and large corporations, managing more than $8.8 trillion in invested assets for over 1,400 clients as of December 31, 2024.

Expanding Partnerships Drive Growth
Sapiens has effectively expanded its System Integrator ecosystem. In 2024, SPNS forged stronger partnerships with major players like Deloitte and LTIMindtree and established new collaborations with Coforge and Cognizant, enhancing its regional presence and service capabilities.
The collaboration with Microsoft has been particularly advantageous, showcasing Sapiens’ product innovations in the insurance sector. In January 2025, SPNS launched its SaaS solution on the Microsoft Azure marketplace, facilitating access for Microsoft Azure customers.
One notable win was the selection of Sapiens CoreSuite for Life & Pensions by Universal Life, a major life and health insurer in Cyprus. This partnership aims to modernize outdated systems, enhance operations, and drive innovation in policy administration and claims processing. Universal Life will also use Sapiens Cloud Services to boost scalability and performance.
Furthermore, in March, Hiscox UK successfully implemented the Sapiens Insurance Platform via Sapiens Cloud, resulting in a 30% improvement in application speed and improved integration capabilities. This upgrade enhances Hiscox’s agility in providing services to its commercial and private clients.
Pioneer Insurance and Surety Corporation in the Philippines also selected the Sapiens Insurance Platform in support of their digital transformation, further expanding Sapiens’ international market reach.
