Goldman said it cut its forecast to 0.68 euros per share from 1.22 euros because of the impact of SAP's stock appreciation rights programme. The investment bank dropped 1999 earnings per share estimates to 3.41 euros from 3.95 euros while retaining estimates for 2000 pending the release of 1999 results in late January.
