Bernard Charlès, Dassault SystèmesChairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer commented:

“In the transformative journey we embarked on in 2020, transitioning from Things to Life, science has played a pivotal role, as it opens our eyes to the world, making the invisible, visible.

Science-based Virtual Twin Experiences serve as a universal language, a new ‘milieu’, unlocking the secrets of reality and fostering our imagination. It is explorative and generative, allowing us to cross disciplines and revisit fundamentals with a fresh perspective. This was the focus of key events we held recently, gathering the scientific communities to explore deep-coupling of AI, Cyber Systems and ModSim at the core of which is Bio Sciences. This opens up new ways to envision sustainability as material sciences as well as biology, serving multi scale Virtual Twins, contribute to reveal the invisible.

Our purpose is clear - to provide 3DEXPERIENCE universes that foster sustainable innovation and harmonize product, nature, and life. Recognizing the importance of understanding life itself, we strive to align all sectors from Life Sciences to Manufacturing and Infrastructures.”  

Dassault Systèmes’ Deputy Chief Executive Officer & Chief Operating Officer Commentary

Pascal Daloz, Dassault Systèmes’ Deputy Chief Executive Officer & Chief Operating Officer commented:

“During the second quarter, we saw a renewed focus on investment in innovation from customers. This positive shift in the market was evident in our strong performance, driven by broad-based momentum with both large enterprises and mid-market companies across various geographies. Specifically, China experienced a rebound in Mainstream Innovation, the Americas saw a return of large transactions, and Europe remained resilient, driven by successful wins in Consumer Packaged Goods & Retail and Transportation & Mobility, primarily led by Germany and France.

The convergence of the Experience Economy and the Circular Economy is driving a profound transformation across all sectors. As businesses and industries continue to evolve, we saw a growing demand from customers to address the critical issues of sustainability and environmental responsibility, maintaining a competitive edge through rapid innovation, and optimizing operational efficiency. 

In harnessing the power of AI-driven Virtual Twin Experiences, we are upskilling the workforce of the future with greater knowledge and know-how. AI automates repetitive tasks, driving significant productivity gains, enabling informed decision-making, and nurturing imagination and creativity. AI shifts the responsibilities of workers from 'doing' to 'choosing’, acting as a true 'cornucopia' to driving innovation and success.”

Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Financial Officer Commentary

(revenue growth rates in constant currencies, data on a non-IFRS basis, cash flow IFRS)

Rouven Bergmann, Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Financial Officer, commented:

“We wrapped up a solid first half of the year with strong second quarter results, delivering on all our key objectives, encompassing revenue, margin and EPS. This reflects an improving momentum, putting us on the trajectory to achieve our full-year objectives. Second quarter total revenue and software revenue grew 8%, well-aligned with our objectives, driven by strength across multiple industries, product lines and geographies.

From a profitability perspective, we outperformed our second quarter objectives, while continuing to invest in our long-term growth. Diluted EPS grew 7% as reported and 15% at constant currency to €0.28. We reported an operating margin of 31%. Year-to-date cash flow from operations totaled €1.03 billion.

For the full year 2023, we are reaffirming our objectives of revenue growth of 8% to 9% and diluted earnings per share of €1.18 to €1.20. We are well-positioned for growth acceleration, supported by a robust pipeline and broad-based growth contribution from key industries and geographies.”

Forward-looking Information

Statements herein that are not historical facts but express expectations or objectives for the future, including but not limited to statements regarding the Group’s non-IFRS financial performance objectives are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on Dassault Systèmes management's current views and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Actual results or performances may differ materially from those in such statements due to a range of factors.

The Group’s actual results or performance may be materially negatively affected by numerous risks and uncertainties, as described in the “Risk Factors” section 1.9 of the 2022 Universal Registration Document (‘Document d'enregistrement universel’) filed with the AMF (French Financial Markets Authority) on March 17, 2023, available on the Group’s website www.3ds.com.

In particular, please refer to the risk factor “Uncertain Global Economic Environment” in section 1.9.1.1 of the 2022 Universal Registration Document set out below for ease of reference:

“In light of the uncertainties regarding economic, business, social, health and geopolitical conditions at the global level, Dassault Systèmes’ revenue, net earnings and cash flows may grow more slowly, whether on an annual or quarterly basis, mainly due to the following factors:

  • the deployment of Dassault Systèmes’ solutions may represent a large portion of a customer’s investments in software technology. Decisions to make such an investment are impacted by the economic environment in which the customers operate. Uncertain global geopolitical, economic and health conditions and the lack of visibility or the lack of financial resources may cause some customers, e.g. within the automotive, aerospace, energy or natural resources industries, to reduce, postpone or terminate their investments, or to reduce or not renew ongoing paid maintenance for their installed base, which impact larger customers’ revenue with their respective sub-contractors;
  • the political, economic and monetary situation in certain geographic regions where Dassault Systèmes operates could become more volatile and impact Dassault Systèmes’ business, for example, due to stricter export compliance rules or the introduction of new customs tariffs;
  • continued pressure or volatility on raw materials and energy prices could also slow down Dassault Systèmes’ diversification efforts in new industries;
  • uncertainties regarding the extent and duration of inflation could adversely affect the financial position of Dassault Systèmes; and
  • the sales cycle of the Dassault Systèmes’ products – already relatively long due to the strategic nature of such investments for customers – could further lengthen.

The occurrence of crises – health and political crises in particular – could have consequences both for the health and safety of Dassault Systèmes’ employees and for the Company. It could also adversely impact the financial situation or financing and supply capabilities of Dassault Systèmes’ existing and potential customers, commercial and technology partners, some of whom may be forced to temporarily close sites or cease operations. A deteriorating economic environment could generate increased price pressure and affect the collection of receivables, which would negatively impact Dassault Systèmes’ revenue, financial performance and market position.

Dassault Systèmes makes every effort to take into consideration this uncertain macroeconomic outlook. Dassault Systèmes’ business results, however, may not develop as anticipated. Furthermore, due to factors affecting sales of Dassault Systèmes’ products and services, there may be a substantial time lag between an improvement in global economic and business conditions and an upswing in the Company’s business results.”

In preparing such forward-looking statements, the Group has in particular assumed an average US dollar to euro exchange rate of US$1.10 per €1.00 as well as an average Japanese yen to euro exchange rate of JPY140.0 to €1.00, before hedging for the third quarter 2023. The Group has in particular assumed an average US dollar to euro exchange rate of US$1.09 per €1.00 as well as an average Japanese yen to euro exchange rate of JPY142.9 to €1.00, before hedging for the full year 2023. However, currency values fluctuate, and the Group’s results may be significantly affected by changes in exchange rates.

Non-IFRS Financial Information

Readers are cautioned that the supplemental non-IFRS financial information presented in this press release is subject to inherent limitations. It is not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for IFRS measurements. The supplemental non-IFRS financial information should be read only in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, the Group’s supplemental non-IFRS financial information may not be comparable to similarly titled “non-IFRS” measures used by other companies. Specific limitations for individual non-IFRS measures are set forth in the Company’s 2022 Universal Registration Document filed with the AMF on March 17, 2023.

In the tables accompanying this press release the Group sets forth its supplemental non-IFRS figures for revenue, operating income, operating margin, net income and diluted earnings per share, which exclude the effect of adjusting the carrying value of acquired companies’ deferred revenue, share-based compensation expense and related social charges, the amortization of acquired intangible assets and of tangibles reevaluation, certain other operating income and expense, net, including impairment of goodwill and acquired intangibles, the effect of adjusting lease incentives of acquired companies, certain one-time items included in financial revenue and other, net, and the income tax effect of the non-IFRS adjustments and certain one-time tax effects. The tables also set forth the most comparable IFRS financial measure and reconciliations of this information with non-IFRS information.

DASSAULT SYSTÈMES - Glossary of Definitions

Information in Constant Currencies

Dassault Systèmes has followed a long‑standing policy of measuring its revenue performance and setting its revenue objectives exclusive of currency in order to measure in a transparent manner the underlying level of improvement in its total revenue and software revenue by activity, industry, geography and product lines. The Group believes it is helpful to evaluate its growth exclusive of currency impacts, particularly to help understand revenue trends in its business. Therefore, the Group provides percentage increases or decreases in its revenue and expenses (in both IFRS as well as non-IFRS) to eliminate the effect of changes in currency values, particularly the U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen, relative to the euro. When trend information is expressed “in constant currencies”, the results of the “prior” period have first been recalculated using the average exchange rates of the comparable period in the current year, and then compared with the results of the comparable period in the current year.

While constant currency calculations are not considered to be an IFRS measure, the Group believes these measures are critical to understanding its global revenue results and to compare with many of its competitors who report their financial results in U.S. dollars. Therefore, Dassault Systèmes includes this calculation for comparing IFRS revenue figures as well non-IFRS revenue figures for comparable periods. All information at constant exchange rates is expressed as a rounded percentage and therefore may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.

Information on Growth excluding acquisitions (“organic growth”)

In addition to financial indicators on the entire Group’s scope, Dassault Systèmes provides growth excluding acquisitions effect, also named organic growth. In order to do so, the data relating to the scope is restated excluding acquisitions, from the date of the transaction, over a period of 12 months.

Information on Industrial Sectors

  • the “Europe” group, comprising Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and made of four GEO’s;
  • the “Asia” group, comprising Asia and Oceania and made of five GEO’s.

3DEXPERIENCE Licenses and Software Contribution

To measure the relative share of 3DEXPERIENCE software in its revenues, Dassault Systèmes utilizes the following ratios:

  • for licenses revenue, the Group calculates the percentage contribution by comparing total 3DEXPERIENCE Licenses revenue to licenses revenue for all product lines except SOLIDWORKS on premise, MEDIDATA, CENTRIC PLM and other acquisitions (defined as “3DEXPERIENCE Eligible Licenses revenue”);
  • for software revenue, the Group calculates the percentage contribution by comparing total 3DEXPERIENCE software revenue to software revenue for all product lines except SOLIDWORKS on premise, MEDIDATA, CENTRIC PLM and other acquisitions (defined as “3DEXPERIENCE Eligible software revenue”).

Cloud revenue

Cloud revenues correspond to revenue generated through a catalog of online services to configure and run cloud solutions, delivered by Dassault Systèmes via a cloud infrastructure hosted by Dassault Systèmes, or by third party providers of cloud computing infrastructure services. This offering is available through different deployment methods: Dedicated cloud, Sovereign Trust cloud and International cloud, All cloud applications can be offered through perpetual licenses and maintenance or subscriptions models.
