What AROBS does

AROBS Transilvania Software S.A. is a Romania-headquartered IT services and proprietary software group founded in 1998 and listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange (BVB:AROBS), operating across 10 countries with approximately 1,200 engineers. The company runs a three-pillar business model. The Software Services pillar (RON 309 million in 2025) delivers custom software development and team augmentation across regulated verticals — automotive (TISAX-certified sites in Arad and Targu Mures), aerospace/satellite, healthcare/life sciences (FDA/EMA), travel/hospitality, IoT/embedded, and enterprise solutions — with engagement models spanning augmentation, fixed price, managed capacity, managed service, and outcome-based delivery. The Software Products pillar (approximately RON 100 million in 2025, up 25% YoY) monetizes proprietary platforms including TrackGPS fleet management (11,000+ customers across CEE, Asia, and South America), Optimall business mobility suite (SFA/WMS), UCMS HR and payroll, and Monepos payment solutions. The Integrated Systems pillar (RON 39 million in 2025, approximately 4x growth) provides turnkey implementation, advisory, and managed services, increasingly anchored in regulatory compliance offerings such as DORA-as-a-Service and NIS2 readiness.

The underlying technology stack spans embedded systems, IoT, cloud, microservices, RPA, Big Data, and cybersecurity, with an AI-readiness layer (including LLM integration) applied to client engagements. AROBS holds ISO/IEC 42001 AI Management System certification (first in Romania), ISO 27001 (since 2017, renewed 2023), TISAX Label 2, and ISO 9001/14001/45001 — credentials that materially shape its addressable market in regulated enterprises. Revenue is approximately 70% non-Romanian across 15+ countries, delivered through direct enterprise sales, self-serve digital channels for proprietary products, and subsidiary channels (Pannonia in Hungary, Coso by AROBS in NL/BE, AROBS Indonesia, AROBS Moldova, AROBS Polska).

Since 2021 AROBS has executed a serial M&A strategy — Berg Software (2021), Enea Software Development Services (EUR 17.9M, 2022), Nordlogic (2022), SYDERAL Polska (2023), Future WorkForce (2023), Infobest (2024), Codingscape/SVT Electronics/GESS Engineering (2025), and Quest Global Romania (announced January 2026, settled entirely in new shares) — supported by a EUR 28.7 million capital increase in July 2024 (the largest tech capital raise on BVB) and investment from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. FY2025 consolidated turnover was RON 448 million (+8% YoY), EBITDA RON 69 million (+16%), and net profit RON 32 million (+50%), with the merger-by-absorption process of five Romanian subsidiaries submitted for shareholder approval in early 2026 to streamline the post-acquisition group structure.

Direct peers

• Endava: UK-headquartered custom software development firm with deep Romania delivery centers serving financial services, automotive, and tech clients. Closely comparable to AROBS in vertical mix, nearshore delivery model, and enterprise custom-development positioning, but materially larger and listed on NYSE.
• Globant: Global digital transformation and custom software services firm with nearshore delivery in Latin America, comparable in vertical breadth (finance, healthcare, travel) and proprietary product mindset (Globant Enterprise AI). Listed on NYSE, providing a relevant valuation comp.
• EPAM Systems: Large nearshore IT services company with roots in Central and Eastern Europe, providing custom software development and digital engineering to enterprise clients across similar verticals (financial services, automotive, life sciences). Provides a benchmark for premium CEE IT services multiples.
• Nagarro: Germany-based global digital engineering and custom software services firm with strong automotive and industrial verticals, comparable in scale and nearshore/onshore hybrid delivery model. Listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange as a comp.
• Ciklum: Ukrainian-Danish custom software development company with delivery centers across CEE, serving financial services, retail, and travel. Directly comparable to AROBS in nearshore delivery model and vertical mix, though currently navigating Ukraine-related operational disruption.
• Pentalog: Romania- and France-based IT services company offering custom software development and team augmentation. Directly competes with AROBS in European custom development and shares similar nearshore positioning, though privately held and smaller in scale.

Broad incumbents

• Cognizant Softvision: Romanian-born custom software development firm now part of Cognizant, serving many of the same enterprise verticals (financial services, travel, healthcare). As a global incumbent's delivery arm, it competes directly with AROBS on enterprise custom development but at vastly greater scale.
• Luxoft (DXC Technology): Global IT services firm (now part of DXC) with strong automotive, aerospace, and financial services software engineering practices. Directly comparable to AROBS's embedded automotive and aviation work but at incumbent scale.
• Accenture: Global IT services and consulting incumbent with deep automotive, financial services, and healthcare practices. Competes with AROBS for large enterprise custom development and compliance engagements but at vastly greater scale and brand recognition.

Others

• Quest Global: Indian-headquartered engineering services firm whose Romania arm was acquired by AROBS in 2026. Now an AROBS shareholder and continuing group-level collaboration, making Quest Global a transactional partner and emerging peer for embedded and engineering services rather than a head-to-head rival.
