Second Quarter 2021 versus 2020 Financial Comparisons
(unaudited, all revenue growth rates in constant currencies)

  • Total Revenue: Total revenue increased 14% (IFRS and non-IFRS) to €1.16 billion.

  • Software Revenue: On an organic basis, software revenue grew 15% (IFRS and non-IFRS). Non-IFRS recurring revenue rose 10% and represented 79% of total software revenue. Licenses and other software revenue increased 38% (IFRS and non-IFRS on an organic basis) to €223.1 million.

  • Software Revenue by Geography: IFRS and non-IFRS revenue growth was broad-based across geographies with the Americas up 19% and Europe and Asia rising 13%. We saw above average strength in North America, China and Northern and Southern Europe while Japan lagged.

  • 3DEXPERIENCE: Non-IFRS software revenue increased 26%, with licenses and other software revenue up sharply. The 3DEXPERIENCE Platform was cited as an important contributor to key wins across large accounts during the period.

  • Cloud: Non-IFRS Cloud revenue grew 26% in the second quarter, representing 19.5% of non-IFRS software revenue. The category benefited from a number of larger wins, reflecting the accelerating trend towards inclusive innovation.

  • Operating Income and Margin: IFRS operating income increased 111.1%, as reported. On a non-IFRS basis, operating income rose 30.6% to €373.8 million as reported and 39.7% at a constant currency rate. Non-IFRS operating margin increased 540 basis points to 32.2%.

  • Earnings per Share: IFRS diluted earnings per share increased 118.4% as reported. On a non-IFRS basis, EPS increased 34.9% to €0.22 as reported or 45% excluding currency headwinds.

Q2 and H1 Year-Over-Year Product Line Highlights
(unaudited, growth rates in constant currencies)

Industrial Innovation: IFRS and non-IFRS software revenue rose 8% to €571 million in the second quarter. For the first half, Industrial Innovation IFRS and non-IFRS software revenue grew 6% to €1.2 billion, representing 56% of software revenue.

  • In Industrial Innovation, CATIA, with its world-leading solutions in product design and modeling experience, delivered software revenue growth of 9% (non-IFRS) during the quarter, punctuated by CATIA Cyber Systems. NETVIBES, in data intelligence, also benefited from positive business trends into the second quarter.

  • Transportation and mobility software revenue was a significant contributor to returns, posting 14% growth. The increased complexity of developing more sustainable vehicles and transportation infrastructure, including EVs, aerospace and urban mobility should be a secular tailwind. The High Tech and Home & Lifestyle industries also boosted sales during the period.

  • CIMdata’s 2021 Annual PLM Market Report recognized Dassault Systèmes as the market leader across a number of categories including PLM, cPDM and CAD.

Life Sciences software revenue totaled €218 million (IFRS and non-IFRS) in the second quarter, an increase of 23% (IFRS) and 22% (non-IFRS). For the first half, Life Sciences software revenue was €427 million (IFRS) and €428 million (non-IFRS), up 22% (IFRS) and 19% (non-IFRS), and representing 20% of software revenue (IFRS and non-IFRS).

  • Life Sciences & Healthcare experienced strong business momentum across its product portfolio including Rave EDC, Patient Cloud, Acorn AI as well as in attach rates. We see platformization as a structural driver for the category.

  • MEDIDATA continued to deliver compelling innovation. With the launch of Patient Cloud, Decentralized Clinical Trials (DCT) Program, MEDIDATA became the first company in the world to unify direct patient data capture technology, direct-to-patient services and study oversight and monitoring, on a single platform.

  • MEDIDATA’s Acorn AI Synthetic Control Arm was named “Best AI-based Solution for Healthcare” at the 2021 AI Breakthrough Awards. We believe this capability, which leverages our proprietary and unique dataset, will be an important category driver in the future.

Mainstream Innovation software revenue was €262 million (IFRS and non-IFRS), rising 27% in the second quarter. For the first half, Mainstream Innovation software revenue totaled €511 million (IFRS and non-IFRS), an increase of 23%, and represented 24% of software revenue.

  • SOLIDWORKS non-IFRS software revenue rose 25% in the second quarter on broad-based global demand. SOLIDWORKS’ 3DEXPERIENCE WORKS cloud-based solution revenue was also up sharply during the period.

  • CENTRIC PLM continued to see strong business momentum, posting near triple digit growth. The acquisition of CENTRIC PLM should be completed within a month without an additional cash investment.

COO & CFO Commentary (year-over-year comparisons, revenue growth rates in constant currencies, data on a non-IFRS basis, cash flow IFRS)

Pascal Daloz, Dassault Systèmes’ Chief Operating Officer, & Chief Financial Officer, commented, We delivered strong results in the second quarter driven by robust demand across product lines and geographies. Organic software revenue grew 15% with license revenue rising 38% and subscription revenue up double digits, all at the high end of our objectives. 3DEXPERIENCE and Cloud both performed well, growing 26%, reflecting our strong value proposition and benefiting from what we view as a structural shift in client imperatives towards standardization and inclusive innovation. Diluted EPS growth of 45% was well above expectations on the back of higher profitability. Operating margin expanded by 540 basis points to 32.2% driven in part by expense and headcount tailwinds. Finally, cash flow from operations totaled €1.03 billion in the first half, keeping us on pace to achieve our deleveraging target in early 2022.

We expect the current business environment and profitability trends to persist in the second half. As a result, we are raising our FY 2021 revenue growth objective range to 10%-11% from 9%-10% previously. We are increasing our non-IFRS diluted EPS objective range to €0.89 - €0.91 on a split adjusted basis or 23%- 25% from 17%-18% previously, capturing the earnings upside from the first half, increased revenue visibility and lower-than expected expenses.

“We succeed when our clients succeed. We value the opportunity to empower our clients to address today’s new imperatives and innovate differently. I want to thank our entire team for their hard work and dedication to success this quarter.”

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 2020 Universal Registration Document (‘Document d'enregistrement universel) filed with the AMF (French Financial Markets Authority) on March 19, 2021, 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 2020 Universal Registration Document set out below for ease of reference:
“In light of the uncertainties regarding economic, business, social, health, climate 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 sales cycle of Dassault Systèmes’ products – already relatively long due to the strategic nature of such investments for customers – could further lengthen;
  • the political, economic and monetary situation in certain geographic regions where Dassault Systèmes operates could become more volatile and, for example, result in stricter export compliance rules or the modification of customs tariff;
    • health conditions in some geographic areas where Dassault Systèmes operates will impact the economic situation of those regions. Specifically, it is not possible to predict the impact, length and scope of damages originating from the COVID-19 pandemic as of issuance date of this document. Health conditions, including the COVID-19 pandemic, may present risks for health and ability to travel for Dassault Systèmes employees; and
  • continued pressure or volatility on raw materials and energy prices could also slow down Dassault Systèmes’ industry diversification efforts.”

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 Group’s business results.

The economic context (as notably caused by the COVID-19 pandemic crisis) may 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 due to cash flow and profitability issues. Dassault Systèmes’ ability to collect outstanding receivables may be affected. In addition, the economic environment could generate increased price pressure, as customers seek lower prices from various competitors, which could negatively impact Dassault Systèmes’ revenue, financial performance and market position.

In preparing such forward-looking statements, the Group has in particular assumed an average US dollar to euro exchange rate of US$1.22 per €1.00 as well as an average Japanese yen to euro exchange rate of JPY130.0 to €1.00 before hedging for the third and fourth quarters and US$1.21 per €1.00 as well as an average Japanese yen to euro exchange rate of JPY129.9 to €1.00 before hedging for the full year 2021. However, currency values fluctuate, and the Group’s results of operations 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 2020 Universal Registration Document filed with the AMF on March 19, 2021.

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

We 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 line. 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; expenses and EPS (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. Variations in constant currencies are obtained by comparing the performances of the current period with those of the comparable period recalculated using the average exchange rates of the current period.  

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 constant currency information is provided on an approximate basis.

Information on Growth excluding acquisitions (“organic growth”)

In addition to financial indicators on the entire Group’s scope, Dassault Systèmes provides growth excluding the impact of acquisitions, also named organic growth. The related growth rate is determined by restating the scope of activity as follows: for entities entering the consolidation scope in the current year, subtracting the contribution of the acquisition from the aggregates of the current year and, for entities entering the consolidation scope in the previous year, subtracting the contribution of the acquisition from January 1st of the current year, until the last day of the month of the current year when the acquisition was made the previous year.

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: Transportation & Mobility; Aerospace & Defense; Marine & Offshore; Industrial Equipment; High-Tech; Home & Lifestyle; Consumer Packaged Goods & Retail and a portion of Business Services;
  • Life Sciences & Healthcare: Life Sciences & Healthcare;
  • Infrastructure & Cities: Energy & Materials; Construction, Cities and Territories; Business Services.

Information on Product Lines

Our product lines financial reporting include: 1) Industrial Innovation software revenue, comprised of our CATIA, ENOVIA, SIMULIA, DELMIA, GEOVIA, NETVIBES, and 3DEXCITE brands; 2) Life Sciences software revenue, comprised of our MEDIDATA and BIOVIA brands; and 3) Mainstream Innovation software revenue, comprised of CENTRIC PLM and 3DVIA brands as well as our 3DEXPERIENCE WORKS family which includes our SOLIDWORKS brand.

 3DEXPERIENCE Licenses and Software Contribution
To measure the progressive penetration of 3DEXPERIENCE software, we use the following ratios: a) 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”); and, b) 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”).
