I rather see them cancelling SAP as a positive sign. They seem to know what they are doing...

They cancelled their SAP integration after dropping 500 million euros...

It might be a sign they're moving in the right direction, but it also tells me they are transitioning from a board and executive team that felt that was the right path quite recently.

They tried to integrate the business into SAP for seven years. Which still is fairly recently in non-startup terms, but I agree it's still a great sign they decided to cut the losses instead of falling for the Sunk Cost Fallacy.
