  • FY2022 non-IFRS objectives: reaffirming total revenue growth of 9%-10%, in constant currencies. Raising non-IFRS diluted EPS target to 18%-19% growth to €1.12-€1.14, and on track to be fully deleveraged by year-end.

Bernard Charlès, Dassault Systèmes’ Vice Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer commented:

“Virtualization is about applying science at scale, using the virtual world to extend and improve the real world. For forty years, we have been a trusted partner, leveraging science, to help clients overcome their most significant challenges, prepare for the future, and realize their greatest ambitions - from agility and resiliency to sustainability. Today, clients across all sectors, and society at large, face a complex and rapidly changing business environment. The role we play is as critical as ever; this was well demonstrated at our recent customer forums, held around the world. Virtualization opens possibilities well beyond digitization - it's the next frontier.

Our foundation in science is truly a differentiator. Our virtual twin experiences, powered by cloud-based 3DEXPERIENCE, are not simple renderings, they are fully integrated with scientific laws and principles and all of our technologies. Incorporating multi-physics, multiscale and multi-discipline, we combine modeling, simulation and data science for a holistic approach to innovation and business optimization. We empower our clients to create virtual universes to operate the lifecycle of their products and also the production systems. This establishes a valuable foundation to fully leverage the future of data science.

As data collection and analysis accelerate, virtualization of society and the economy requires the highest levels of security, trust and services. For these reasons, we announced our new strategic objective to elevate 3DS OUTSCALE, Dassault Systèmes' sovereign cloud infrastructure, to a brand, protecting environments for creating and operating sustainable virtual twin experiences. Trust is a topic of the greatest importance for all of society – consumers, patients and citizens.”

Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Operating Officer Commentary

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

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

“In a challenging environment, we delivered a solid third quarter thanks to the resiliency of our model and the broad diversification of our business. In Industrial Innovation, our flagship brands CATIA, ENOVIA and DELMIA drove performance with strong, double-digit software revenue growth. In Life Sciences, MEDIDATA delivered excellent growth against a high comparison base, again this quarter. Mainstream Innovation rose mid-single digits as China's COVID related restrictions continued to be a headwind, impacting results this quarter, particularly for SOLIDWORKS.

The relevance and criticality of our platform and industry solution experiences have never been greater. To navigate today's complex economic and geopolitical environment, clients across all sectors of the economy continue to prioritize investments to accelerate sustainable innovation and increase resiliency and agility by optimizing production and logistics. This is well reflected in our strong customer adoption this quarter, incorporating numerous domains including precision medicine, modular nuclear reactors and connecting supply chains.

This quarter, we announced the acquisition of StyleSage, a cloud-based market intelligence platform offering retailers and brands AI-powered tools for competitive benchmarking, price optimization, and forecasting. StyleSage will bolster CENTRIC PLM’s value proposition by extending its footprint from collection management to business planning & analytics as well as e-commerce. We continue to innovate and invest for the future both organically and through M&A.”

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 delivered solid results in the third quarter, demonstrating the strength of our model. Total revenue grew 8%, in line with our objectives. Recurring revenue growth accelerated, increasing 10%, and now represents 82% of software revenue, driven by strong subscription revenue, up 16%. This shows we are well prepared for a progressive acceleration in subscription growth while continuing to support our clients with optionality that meets their needs. Our key strategic drivers, 3DEXPERIENCE and cloud, continue to build momentum, increasing 15% and 21%, respectively.

Our third quarter earnings per share rose 17%, to €0.26, outperforming our objectives and reflecting a favorable US Dollar impact. We reported an operating margin of 31.6%, in line with our target range, while hiring nearly 800 net new team members during the quarter. Years of strategic investments in technology, infrastructure and our organization enable us to protect profitability while continuing to invest in advance of our clients' needs.

Turning to 2022, we are reaffirming our total revenue growth objective of 9-10% to a higher absolute range of €5.610-€5.650 from €5.485-€5.535 previously, incorporating the full benefit of currency. We are adjusting our recurring revenue growth target to 9-10%, from 9% previously, and our license growth target to 5-7%, from 9-11% previously. In addition, we are raising our 2022 diluted EPS objective to 18%-19% growth, reaching €1.12 to €1.14, keeping us on track to be fully deleveraged by year-end.”

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 2021 Universal Registration Document (‘Document d'enregistrement universel’) filed with the AMF (French Financial Markets Authority) on March 17, 2022, 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 2021 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 automotive, aerospace 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;
  • current inflation forecasts, as well as uncertainties regarding the extent and duration of this trend, could adversely affect the financial condition 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 geopolitical crises in particular – could have consequences for the health and safety of Dassault Systèmes’ employees. It could also adversely impact the financial situation or financing 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$1.05 per €1.00 as well as an average Japanese yen to euro exchange rate of JPY139.0 to €1.00, before hedging for the fourth quarter 2022. The Group has in particular assumed an average US dollar to euro exchange rate of US$1.06 per €1.00 as well as an average Japanese yen to euro exchange rate of JPY136.7 to €1.00, before hedging for the full year 2022. 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 2021 Universal Registration Document filed with the AMF on March 17, 2022.

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 have followed a long-standing policy of measuring our revenue performance and setting our revenue objectives exclusive of currency in order to measure in a transparent manner the underlying level of improvement in our total revenue and software revenue by activity, industry, geography and product lines. We believe it is helpful to evaluate our growth exclusive of currency impacts, particularly to help understand revenue trends in our business. Therefore, we provide percentage increases or decreases in our 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 by us “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, we do believe these measures are critical to understanding our global revenue results and to compare with many of our competitors who report their financial results in U.S. dollars. Therefore, we are including this calculation for comparing IFRS revenue figures for comparable periods as well as for comparing non-IFRS revenue figures for comparable periods. All information at constant exchange rates are 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

Dassault Systèmes’ Industries develop Solution Experiences, industry-focused offerings that deliver specific value to companies and users in a particular industry. We serve eleven industries structured into three sectors:

  • Manufacturing industries Sector: Transportation & Mobility; Aerospace & Defense; Marine & Offshore; Industrial Equipment; High-Tech; Home & Lifestyle; Consumer Packaged Goods & Retail;
  • Life Sciences & Healthcare Sector: Life Sciences & Healthcare;
  • Infrastructure & Cities Sector: Infrastructure, Energy & Materials; Architecture, Engineering & Construction; Cities, Public & Business Services.

Information on Product Lines

Our product lines financial reporting include the following financial information:

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

3DEXPERIENCE Licenses and Software Contribution

To measure the progressive penetration of 3DEXPERIENCE software, we utilize the following ratios:

  • for Licenses revenue, we calculate the percentage contribution by comparing total 3DEXPERIENCE Licenses revenue to Licenses revenue for all product lines except SOLIDWORKS and acquisitions (“related 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 and acquisitions (“related software revenue”).

Cloud Revenue

Cloud revenues correspond to revenue generated through a catalog of online services 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: Public cloud, Private cloud, Dedicated cloud. All cloud applications can be offered through perpetual licenses and maintenance or subscriptions models.
