## Quadient's Ranking and Digital Growth

Quadient moved up three places from 2025 in a sector the EY and Numeum study describes as undergoing significant transformation. The study found the French software publishing market, excluding video games, grew 5.2% in 2025, while horizontal software publishers recorded 11% growth.

At the end of July, annual recurring revenue for Quadient's Digital business reached €264 million, up 12.9% on an annualized organic basis. EBITDA for the business grew 17% organically, a 1.3-point margin improvement, and free cash flow at Quadient level was €34 million for the first half of the year.

In France, Quadient's platform processed e-invoices for more than 1.05 million entities (SIRETs) as of the end of October 2026, representing 15.6% of all SIRETs in France. More than 4 million invoices have already been processed.

"Our rise in the Top 250 highlights the growing strength of our Digital business and underscores the relevance of our strategy," said Geoffrey Godet, CEO of Quadient. "Our priority is clear: to make Digital our largest business in terms of revenue and EBITDA by 2030, while pursuing targeted investment and financial discipline."

The EY and Numeum study also found that 80% of publishers surveyed have integrated generative AI features into their solutions, with 51% already in production. Quadient said it embeds AI in its financial automation and customer communications solutions, and in June it added an AI-powered cash management dashboard to its finance automation offering.

## EY's Scale Behind the Study

According to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), EY operates across more than 150 countries with 121,000 consulting professionals, within a global organization of more than 400,000 people. The firm was founded in 1989 and is headquartered in New York. EY US expanded its strategic alliance with SymphonyAI in July 2026 to bring manufacturing intelligence to enterprise operations, extending a collaboration that already covered retail and financial services.

## Earlier EY Survey Findings

EY's 2026 Tax and Finance Operations Survey of 1,600 CFOs and senior leaders, released on November 11, found that 64% cite insufficient AI-ready data as the biggest barrier to AI initiatives, while 83% prioritize an agentic workforce and 71% remain at a nascent stage, [EY](https://www.ey.com/en_us) said. On November 9, EY's 2026 survey of 200 Irish sustainability leaders found 68% report political, geopolitical and regulatory developments affecting their strategy, with supply chains most affected, according to [Irishtechnews](https://akta.pro/news-signals).

## Quadient's 2030 Target

Quadient said its priority is to make Digital its largest business in terms of revenue and EBITDA by 2030, while pursuing targeted investment and financial discipline.
