VELIZY-VILLACOUBLAY, France — October 24, 2024

Dassault Systèmes: Third quarter results in-line

Anticipating top line acceleration in 4Q

Confirming full year EPS objective

Dassault Systèmes (Euronext Paris: FR0014003TT8, DSY.PA) today reports its IFRS unaudited estimated financial results for the third quarter 2024 and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Group’s Board of Directors approved these estimated results on October 23, 2024. This press release also includes financial information on a non-IFRS basis and reconciliations with IFRS figures in the Appendix.

Summary Highlights¹  

(unaudited, non-IFRS unless otherwise noted,
all growth rates in constant currencies)

• 3Q24: total revenue rose 4% to €1.46 billion driven by subscription revenue up 8%;
• 3Q24: sequential improvement of MEDIDATA revenue;
• 3Q24: operating margin of 29.6% and EPS at €0.29, in line with guidance;
• YTD24: IFRS cash flow from operations up 6% as reported;
• FY24: confirming diluted EPS objectives of €1.27 – €1.30, while updating total revenue growth from 6 – 8% to 5 – 7% to reflect the continued scrutiny and contraction of the automotive market. Anticipating total revenue growth acceleration at 8% mid-point in 4Q24.

Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Executive Officer Commentary

Pascal Daloz, Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“As we enter the second half of the year, we have seen several end-markets gaining momentum. In Life Sciences, MEDIDATA is back to sequential growth improvement. At the same time, we had excellent performance in Consumer industries driven by CENTRIC PLM. SOLIDWORKS accelerated growth in revenue and seats. Importantly, Aerospace & Defense was resilient and delivered a solid performance this quarter.

However, since late summer, automotive customers in Europe and the US have been impacted by a contraction in volumes. This accelerates the need for transformative decisions, while elongating decision-making in the short term. Momentum in Asia, and China in particular, remains strong.

We are well-positioned to continue gaining market share in the industrial sector. We are confident that our data-centric platform will serve as a catalyst for transformation. In the age of AI, virtualizing industrial processes from design to manufacturing will be a prerequisite for OEMs and suppliers to compete successfully in this next decade.”  

  

Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Financial Officer Commentary

(revenue, operating margin and diluted EPS growth rates in constant currencies,
data on a non-IFRS basis)

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

“In the third quarter, our total revenue grew by 4%, while the operating margin remained resilient at 29.6% and EPS stood at €0.29, highlighting the operating efficiency of the company.

For the full year, we are reconfirming our EPS target range of €1.27 – €1.30 while remaining disciplined to offset the effects of ongoing deal delays and contraction in automotive volumes. Accordingly, we are adjusting our total revenue growth expectations from 6 – 8% to 5 – 7%.

This updated guidance reflects expected growth acceleration in the fourth quarter, driven by continued improvements at MEDIDATA and a robust 3DEXPERIENCE pipeline.”

Third Quarter 2024 Versus 2023 Financial Comparisons

(unaudited, IFRS and non-IFRS unless otherwise noted,
all revenue growth rates in constant currencies)

• Total Revenue: Total revenue in the third quarter grew by 4% to €1.46 billion, and software revenue increased by 3% to €1.31 billion, both at the low end of the Company’s objectives. Subscription & support revenue rose 5%; recurring revenue represented 83% of software revenue, up 2 percentage points compared to last year. Licenses and other software revenue declined by 7% to €229 million. Services revenue increased by 10% to €151 million, during the quarter.
• Software Revenue by Geography: Revenue in the Americas increased by 6% to represent 41% of software revenue, led by Home & Lifestyle from an Industry standpoint. Europe (36% of software revenue) declined by 4%, largely impacted by a strong comparison basis after a large transformation deal signed in the third quarter of 2023. In Asia, revenue increased by 9% with continued momentum across countries led by improvement in China, up double digits. Asia represented 23% of software revenue at the end of the third quarter.
• Software Revenue by Product Line:
  • Industrial Innovation software revenue declined by 1% to €685 million, against a high comparison basis. The strong baseline effect combined with a weaker automotive market in Europe and the US weighed on the performance. Industrial Innovation software represented 52% of software revenue, during the period.
  • Life Sciences software revenue was flat, at €280 million, accounting for 21% of software revenue. Sequential growth improvement confirms MEDIDATA progressive recovery.
  • Mainstream Innovation software revenue increased by 15% to €348 million and represented 26% of software revenue. SOLIDWORKS had a good start in the second half of 2024, up mid-single digits in the quarter. CENTRIC PLM delivered another excellent quarter, due to competitive displacements and strong renewals.

• Software Revenue by Industry: Home & Lifestyle, High-Tech, Aerospace & Defense and Marine & Offshore were among the best performers during the quarter.
• Key Strategic Drivers: 3DEXPERIENCE software revenue was impacted by a tough comparison base due to the anniversary of a mega deal. Hence, we saw a temporary decline of 10%. However, the performance on a year-to-date basis was in line with objectives and, looking at the subscription growth, the trend was very strong at 41%. 3DEXPERIENCE software revenue represented 37% of 3DEXPERIENCE eligible software revenue. Cloud software revenue grew by 7% and represented 25% of software revenue during the period. Excluding MEDIDATA, Cloud software revenue increased by a strong 38%.
• Operating Income and Margin: IFRS operating income declined by 9% at €276 million, as reported. Non-IFRS operating income declined by 1% in constant currencies at €433 million (2% as reported). The IFRS operating margin stood at 18.9% compared to 21.2% in the third quarter of 2023. The non-IFRS operating margin totaled 29.6% versus 31.0% during the same period last year.
• Earnings per Share: IFRS diluted EPS was €0.18, flat as reported. Non-IFRS diluted EPS grew to €0.29, up 3% as reported, or 4% in constant currencies.

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 2023 Universal Registration Document (‘Document d’enregistrement universel’) filed with the AMF (French Financial Markets Authority) on March 18, 2024, 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 2023 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 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 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 JPY155.0 to €1.00, before hedging for the fourth quarter 2024. The Group has 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 JPY162.0 to €1.00, before hedging for the full year 2024. 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 2023 Universal Registration Document filed with the AMF on March 18, 2024.

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 Group provides broad end-to-end software solutions and services: its platform-based virtual twin experiences combine modeling, simulation, data science and collaborative innovation to support companies in the three sectors it serves, namely Manufacturing Industries, Life Sciences & Healthcare, and Infrastructure & Cities.

These three sectors comprise twelve industries:

• Manufacturing Industries: Transportation & Mobility; Aerospace & Defense; Marine & Offshore; Industrial Equipment; High-Tech; Home & Lifestyle; Consumer Packaged Goods – Retail. In Manufacturing Industries, Dassault Systèmes helps customers virtualize their operations, improve data sharing and collaboration across their organization, reduce costs and time-to-market, and become more sustainable;
• Life Sciences & Healthcare: Life Sciences & Healthcare. In this sector, the Group aims to address the entire cycle of the patient journey to lead the way toward precision medicine. To reach the broader healthcare ecosystem from research to commercial, the Group’s solutions connect all elements from molecule development to prevention to care, and combine new therapeutics, med practices, and Medtech;
• Infrastructure & Cities: Infrastructure, Energy & Materials; Architecture, Engineering & Construction; Business Services; Cities & Public Services. In Infrastructure & Cities, the Group supports the virtualization of the sector in making its industries more efficient and sustainable, and creating desirable living environments.

Information on Product Lines

The Group’s product lines financial reporting include the following financial information:

• Industrial Innovation software revenue, which includes CATIA, ENOVIA, SIMULIA, DELMIA, GEOVIA, NETVIBES, and 3DEXCITE brands;
• Life Sciences software revenue, which includes MEDIDATA and BIOVIA brands;
• Mainstream Innovation software revenue which includes its CENTRIC PLM and 3DVIA brands, as well as its 3DEXPERIENCE WORKS family which includes the SOLIDWORKS brand.

Starting from 2022, 3DS OUTSCALE became a brand of Dassault Systèmes. As the first sovereign and sustainable operator on the cloud, 3DS OUTSCALE enables governments and corporations from all sectors to achieve digital autonomy through a Cloud experience and with a world-class cyber governance.

GEO’s

Eleven GEOs are responsible for driving development of the Company’s business and implementing its customer‑centric engagement model. Teams leverage strong networks of local customers, users, partners, and influencers.

These GEOs are structured into three groups:

• the “Americas” group, made of two GEO’s;
• 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 Software Contribution

To measure the relative share of 3DEXPERIENCE software in its revenues, Dassault Systèmes uses the following ratio: for software revenue, the Group calculates the percentage contribution by comparing total 3DEXPERIENCE software revenue to software revenue for all product lines except SOLIDWORKS, MEDIDATA, CENTRIC PLM and other acquisitions (defined as “3DEXPERIENCE Eligible software revenue”).

Cloud revenue

Cloud revenues correspond to revenue generated through a catalog of cloud-based solutions, infrastructure as a service, cloud solution development and cloud managed services. They are delivered by Dassault Systèmes via a cloud infrastructure hosted by Dassault Systèmes, or by third party providers of cloud computing infrastructure services. These offerings are available through different deployment methods: Dedicated cloud, Sovereign cloud and International cloud. Cloud solutions are generally offered through subscriptions models or perpetual licenses with support and hosting services.
