Description: BC8 Bechtle January 08, 2026
Bechtle AG (XETRA: BC8) is a European-focused IT services provider operating through two main segments: IT System House & Managed Services, which delivers strategy consulting, system integration, hardware/software procurement, and training; and IT E-Commerce, which sells hardware, software, and accessories via an online shop. The firm also offers data-center, networking, security, e-procurement, and a broad portfolio of enterprise software applications-including BI, ERP, PLM, CAD/CAM, and AI solutions-to industrial, trade, financial, and public-sector clients.
Key recent metrics show FY 2023 revenue of €6.2 billion, with an operating margin of roughly 5 % and an 8 % year-over-year increase in Managed Services revenue, reflecting strong demand for cloud migration and outsourced IT operations. The segment’s growth is underpinned by a broader European trend of rising cybersecurity spend (projected CAGR > 10 % through 2027) and EU digital-transformation initiatives that are accelerating IT outsourcing. Labor shortages in the German IT talent market further reinforce the appeal of Bechtle’s managed-services model.
