The early extension of CEO Jens Amail's contract until December 2030 reflects SNP's strong operational performance, successful strategic development under his leadership, and positions the company for continued growth following its partnership with Carlyle.

The Supervisory Board of SNP Schneider-Neureither & Partner SE has extended the contract of Chief Executive Officer Jens Amail ahead of schedule by five years, with Amail now remaining CEO until December 2030. The early contract extension reflects the company's successful development in recent years and signals stability and confidence in its leadership. Willi Westenberger, Managing Director at Carlyle and Chairman of SNP's Supervisory Board, stated that under Amail's guidance, SNP has made significant progress across its key strategic priorities, strengthened its market position and delivered sustained operational improvements.
The significant operational progress and stability gained by SNP are closely linked to the leadership of Jens Amail. Since the end of 2022, the company has achieved annual records in order entry, revenue and EBIT. The sustained increase in profitability was backed up by a successful internationalization and growth strategy that has opened up new markets, significantly expanded the software business and elevated collaboration with the ecosystem to a new level. Amail also played a key role in strengthening SNP's corporate governance and strategic stability through the return to a dual governance structure with an Executive and Supervisory Board, as well as the resolution of long-standing legal matters that have provided a solid foundation for the company's future development.
On the product side, the introduction of the SNP Kyano platform in 2024 was an important evolutionary step in supporting the company's strategy as an enabler of digital transformations and business agility. Building on this strong momentum, SNP entered into a strategic partnership with global investment firm Carlyle at the end of 2024, with the partnership intended to support the next phase of the company's growth by accelerating strategy execution and further expanding SNP's global footprint.

With the early extension of Jens Amail's contract, the Supervisory Board is ensuring continuity at the top of the company as SNP enters the next chapter of its growth story. The company works with more than 3,000 customers of all sizes and in all industries in over 80 countries, including numerous DAX 40 and Fortune 500 companies, and generated revenues of EUR 254.8 million in the 2024 fiscal year. The extension represents a vote of confidence in Amail's leadership and the strategic direction he has established for the technology platform leader.
