Bernard Charlès, Dassault Systèmes’ Executive Chairman, commented:

“It is a special moment, marking the commencement of a new journey, with Pascal Daloz now serving as Chief Executive Officer since January 1st, as announced last June. I am impressed by Pascal's engagement to increase the value we bring to the giant customer base that we have. In my new role as Executive Chairman, I will organize the board's work encompassing, among others, strategy, governance, risks’ oversight and corporate social & environmental responsibility. I'll ensure the executive team enjoys the same freedom to pursue innovative strategies as I have had. Furthermore, I will collaborate with Pascal on strategy, research, and developing our connections with governments and longstanding clients.

Over the years, my professional journey has been motivated by a constant commitment to inspiring significant transformations in the industry. While it has driven progress in crucial sectors such as health, mobility and energy, it now needs to adopt a reimagined approach that balances innovation with responsibility towards nature and society. We have been, and will always be a key player in this ‘Industry Renaissance’. Our legacy, combining science and industrial knowledge, is crucial for upcoming metamorphoses focused on sustainable innovation.

The genius of Dassault Systèmes lies in its ability to translate a dream into reality and to drive science-guided imagination. There is more to be invented to advance our mission. We will continue to build on our legacy, aiming to provide businesses and people with 3DEXPERIENCE universes to imagine sustainable innovations capable of harmonizing product, nature and life.”

Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Executive Officer Commentary

(EPS on a non-IFRS basis, in constant currencies)

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

“As the new CEO, I am honored to lead our company, alongside a talented team, into a new chapter – an evolution, not a revolution. Today, we see that the Experience Economy – that we introduced in 2012 – and the Sustainable Economy are converging. We are entering an era defined by the principles of the 'Generative Economy’, centered on understanding and mirroring the magic of life's transformative method. This approach implies a metamorphosis of both the industry and society – a new equilibrium that prioritizes 'generation' over mere 'consumption’.

For decades, we have guided innovation from design to manufacturing. Today, we extend this journey into an infinite loop by seamlessly connecting the virtual and the real with real-world data. This opens up new possibilities, such as 'giving life to things' and 'generating multiple lives of things', promoting sustainability and a circular economy. Consequently, we will expand our value propositions and audiences – reaching all business users and ultimately consumers, patients and citizens.

Successfully delivering our 2018-2023 plan, we doubled our diluted EPS to €1.20, an increase mostly attributed to organic growth. This performance was achieved in five years as initially planned, despite the pandemic and geopolitical instability. During this period, we strengthened our positions in key industries, acting as a game-changer and supporting their transformation, thus laying a solid foundation for future success.

Now, we are embarking on a new five-year plan to double our EPS by 2028. Strategically positioned, we can leverage a vast market creating new opportunities. Our scientific approach, industrial know-how, modeling and simulation capabilities coupled with AI and data science, set us apart to play a critical role in the ‘Generative Economy’.”

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

  • Total Revenue: Total revenue and software revenue grew 8% to €1.64 billion and €1.48 billion respectively. Recurring revenue rose 12%, representing 76% of software revenue versus 73% in the same period last year, led by a strong growth acceleration of subscription throughout the year, to reach 22% in the fourth quarter.

Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Financial Officer Commentary

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

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

“In 2023, we delivered the anticipated acceleration in the second half, achieving our full year objectives with 9% organic revenue growth and €1.20 diluted EPS. This performance reflects an increasing focus on accelerating growth in our core industries and domains. This is evidenced in our numbers: Transportation & Mobility up 12%, 13% in Aerospace & Defense, 23% in Home & Lifestyle. From a product standpoint, design, simulation, manufacturing and data-science enjoyed double-digit growth throughout the year.

In addition, 2023 highlights the momentum in subscription revenue, with 22% growth in the fourth quarter and 16% on a full year basis. As a result, the share of recurring revenue rose to 80% of total software revenue for this year from 78% in 2022. The 3DEXPERIENCE and cloud adoption increased 19% and 12% respectively for the year, acting as a catalyst and driver of the successful evolution towards a sustainable subscription model.

The operating leverage strongly improved year-over-year as expected, by 160 basis points in Q4, achieving an operating margin of 35.9%. This puts us back on track to deliver consistent profit and cash flow expansion. Importantly, we have achieved a net cash balance of €0.6 billion after successfully deleveraging for the acquisition of MEDIDATA within 3 years.

Clearly, all these elements constitute the foundations of our 5-year plan. Looking towards 2024, we are targeting revenue growth of 8% to 10%. Our objective for diluted earnings per share is €1.29 to €1.31.”

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, as updated in the 2023 Half-Year Financial Report (‘Rapport Financier Semestriel’ as of June 30, 2023) filed with the AMF on July 25, 2023, both 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 JPY155.0 to €1.00, before hedging for the first quarter 2024. 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 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 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.

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.

  • 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”);

IFRS – NON-IFRS RECONCILIATION
(unaudited; in millions of Euros, except per share data and percentages)

Readers are cautioned that the supplemental non-IFRS 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 as a substitute for IFRS measurements. Also, the Group’s supplemental non-IFRS financial information may not be comparable to similarly titled “non-IFRS” measures used by other companies. Further specific limitations for individual non-IFRS measures, and the reasons for presenting non-IFRS financial information, are set forth in the Group’s Document d’Enregistrement Universel for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the AMF on March 17, 2023. To compensate for these limitations, the supplemental non-IFRS financial information should be read not in isolation, but only in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-IFRS FINANCIAL INFORMATION
IFRS – NON-IFRS RECONCILIATION
(unaudited; in millions of Euros, except per share data and percentages)

Readers are cautioned that the supplemental non-IFRS 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 as a substitute for IFRS measurements. Also, the Group’s supplemental non-IFRS financial information may not be comparable to similarly titled “non-IFRS” measures used by other companies. Further specific limitations for individual non-IFRS measures, and the reasons for presenting non-IFRS financial information, are set forth in the Group’s Document d’Enregistrement Universel for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the AMF on March 17, 2023. To compensate for these limitations, the supplemental non-IFRS financial information should be read not in isolation, but only in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.
