Credit Suisse assumes coverage on SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) with a Outperform rating and Eu90 price target and adds the stock to its Focus List following solid results driven by S4.

Behind the details, licenses grew 10%, 6% ahead of consensus. Furthermore, this licence outperformance flowed through to the bottom line such that operating profits were also 5% ahead of consensus, reflecting 50bps of margin expansion.
