Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Executive Officer Commentary

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

“In the first quarter, our 3DEXPERIENCE business delivered strong results. A majority of key industry leaders in Manufacturing have now adopted our platform, taking advantage of its science-driven approach, integrative capabilities, and cloud flexibility. Looking ahead, we see large opportunities in Transportation & Mobility, as well as in Aerospace & Defense.

In Life Sciences, as the sector pivots towards patient-centricity, technology transfer from labs to bioreactors, and the utilization of generative AI for faster innovation, we are replicating what we have achieved in other industries by providing an end-to-end platform. This transformation lays the foundation for new sources of sustainable growth.

While we are rooted in the present, we also want to make a positive impact on the world. Shaping the Generative Economy is the next step in our journey. The Generative Economy goes beyond extending virtual twins to living organisms: it’s about learning from life to adopt net-positive ways of living ─ giving back to the planet and society more than we take. A more holistic view of the entire life cycles and impact becomes critical.

This holistic approach is made possible through our 3DEXPERIENCE platform, enabling clients to connect data from experience with models from science. Using our generative AI engines, they will nurture circularity and elevate data into valuable knowledge and know-how.”

First 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 grew 6% to €1.50 billion and software revenue increased 7% to €1.35 billion. Subscription & support revenue rose 7%; recurring revenue represented 84% of software revenue. Licenses and other software revenue grew by 7% to €219 million. Services revenue increased 2% to €147 million, during the quarter.

  • Software Revenue by Geography: The Americas revenue grew 5% to represent 41% of software revenue. Excluding MEDIDATA, the region was up 9% driven by the strong momentum in Home & Lifestyle, Aerospace & Defense and Transportation & Mobility. Europe increased 7% to 37% of software revenue thanks to double-digit growth in western and northern Europe, with strong results in core industries. In the Asia region, revenue increased 10% driven by China, up strong double digit. Japan, Korea and India delivered high-single digit growth. Asia represented 22% of software revenue at the end of the first quarter.

  • Software Revenue by Product Line:

    • Industrial Innovation software revenue rose 9% to €731 million, thanks to the continued strong momentum in the 3DEXPERIENCE. CATIA and ENOVIA recorded high-single digit growth. Industrial Innovation software represented 54% of software revenue, during the period.

    • Life Sciences software revenue decreased 2%, to €285 million, to account for 21% of software revenue. As expected, MEDIDATA software revenue declined slightly.

    • Mainstream Innovation software revenue increased 10% to €337 million and represented 25% of software revenue. SOLIDWORKS delivered a significant revenue growth in subscription while CENTRIC PLM maintained its strong momentum, continuing to benefit from its leading market position and successful diversification strategy.

Q1 was lower versus last year due to the timing of collections that are expected to rebalance throughout the year. Cash flow from operations was principally used for treasury shares buy-back net of proceeds from stock options exercise for €110 million.

  • Balance Sheet (IFRS): Dassault Systèmes’ net financial position totaled €1.1 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, an increase of €526 million, compared to €578 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled €4.1 billion at the end of the 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:

“We had a solid start to the year, while remaining focused on the fundamentals of our business model. Software revenue grew by 7% in the first quarter, underpinned by strong operating leverage with operating margin increasing 50 basis points year-over-year and earnings per share up 12% in constant currencies.

Subscription revenue increased 10% with MEDIDATA weighing on this performance, as anticipated. Excluding this impact, subscription revenue rose 22%, reflecting the continued good momentum in 3DEXPERIENCE.

While 2024 is expected to be a back-end loaded year, Q1 provides increasing visibility in the 3DEXPERIENCE pipeline, mainly driven by the adoption in our customer base. For MEDIDATA, we see progress towards recovery in the second half, supported by the stabilization of the clinical trial market and good execution in terms of bookings growth and win rates.

For the full year, we are confirming our objectives with total revenue growth between 8% and 10%, and non-IFRS diluted EPS at €1.29 - €1.31, up 10% to 12% 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 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 second 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 JPY156.5 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.

GEO’s

Eleven GEOs are responsible for driving the 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 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 cloud and International cloud. All cloud applications can be offered through subscriptions models or perpetual licenses and maintenance.

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, 2023 filed with the AMF on March 18, 2024. 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.
