Recasts with share move, adds detail

July 31 (Reuters) - Shares in Spanish travel technology company Amadeus AMA.MC rose 3.5% on Thursday after the firm said its profit grew 5% in the second quarter, despite macroeconomic tensions and a weaker dollar negatively impacting its results.

The company operating the world's largest travel booking system posted a second-quarter adjusted profit of 374.9 million euros ($428.9 million), roughly in line with analysts' average forecast of 370.8 million euros, according to LSEG data.

The results come as demand in the United States and Canada has been dampened by trade-related tensions, while the company is vulnerable to the greenback's weakness as dollar-denominated revenues represented 40% to 50% of the group's total sales in the first half of the year.

Still, Amadeus said it was able to deliver steady growth in the first six months of 2025, supported by strong performances across its segments and an increase of around 10% in passengers boarded by the firm in the Asia-Pacific region.
