Bernard Charlès, Dassault Systèmes’ Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented, We were pleased to announce earlier this month that we signed with Scania an agreement for a long-term collaboration to implement the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform and expand the usage of our industry solution experiences to support their need for high levels of modularity and customer-specific configurations. In July we announced the Boeing decision for the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform across all their programs and the selection of our Manufacturing Operations Management solutions for production performance. We were also pleased with a number of other decisions. While sales timelines remain extended, and the progress we are making with the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform is not fully reflected in our financial performance, we are highly confident that momentum will continue to build.

“We are also advancing our strategy implementation. Our multiphysics, multiscale technology roadmap will be enhanced with the planned acquisition of Exa to become part of our SIMULIA portfolio. The ability to simulate the impact of highly dynamic fluid flows is critical for industries, for cities and for medicine. For CATIA, the acquisition of No Magic will expand our systems engineering capabilities which will be critical contributors to the realization of autonomous vehicles and to the creation of entirely new customer experiences.

“Finally, at our North American 3DEXPERIENCE Forum last week, we shared important advances in our Living Heart Program, where our goal is to help to drive the creation and use of simulated 3D personalized hearts in the treatment, diagnosis and prevention of heart diseases, as one illustration of our many investments in Life Sciences. The digital Living Heart is now available through the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud, offering the speed and flexibility of high-performance computing (HPC) enabling medical device companies of all sizes and life sciences companies to have immediate access to a complete, on-demand HPC environment to scale up virtual testing securely and collaboratively.”

Completion of the transaction is expected in the fourth quarter of 2017, subject to the receipt of the majority of shares through the tender offer and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including required regulatory approvals.

In a separate press release issued today, Dassault Systèmes announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire No Magic, a global solutions company focused on model-based systems engineering and architecture modeling for software and system of systems. Aerospace & Defense, Transportation & Mobility and High-Tech industries, among others, can digitally address all aspects of embedded systems and system of systems design. The proposed acquisition of No Magic will strengthen Dassault Systèmes’ industry solution experiences based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform for developing the “Internet of Experiences” – the smart and autonomous experiences that are digitally connecting products, nature and life in the physical world. Closing of this acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including required regulatory approvals.

Products and Industry Solution Experiences

On September 26, 2017 Dassault Systèmes announced the launch of SOLIDWORKS 2018, the latest release of its portfolio of 3D design and engineering applications. With SOLIDWORKS 2018, teams can collaborate concurrently to more rapidly and cost-efficiently design a product or part, validate its function and manufacturability, manage its data and related processes, streamline and automate its manufacturing, and inspect it. Any changes in design or manufacturing are fast and easy to manage and automatically flow to all related models, programs, drawings and documentation, thanks to intellectual property embedded early on in the design process. A key feature of SOLIDWORKS 2018 for this process is SOLIDWORKS CAM, a new application that provides rules-based machining with knowledge capture to allow for the automation of manufacturing programming. Designers and engineers can gain a greater understanding of how their designs are made, make more informed decisions, and quickly create prototype parts and manufacture in-house to control quality, cost and delivery.

Business Outlook

Thibault de Tersant, Dassault Systèmes’ Senior Executive Vice President & CFO, commented, “Our key performance indicators during the third quarter were well aligned with the high end of our non-IFRS guidance, with new licenses revenue up 12% and total software revenue up 8% in constant currencies, operating margin at 32% and earnings per share of €0.64. Total revenue growth of 6% in constant currencies came in at the low end of our 6-8% range due to services activity.

“New license revenue growth reflected solid performances across a majority of geos, all Core Industries with notable performance in Industrial Equipment and in multiple Diversification Industries including High-Tech, Energy, Process & Utilities and Consumer Goods & Retail. China’s overall results were disappointing, but strength in other geos compensated for this. From a product line perspective, SOLIDWORKS continued to perform well, and SIMULIA and GEOVIA also stood out.

Based upon our performance to date and updated fourth quarter outlook, we are reaffirming for 2017 new licenses revenue growth of 8 to 10% and recurring revenue growth of about 6%, both goals in constant currencies and on a non-IFRS basis. Since late July, the Euro has strengthened against all other currencies, and as a result we have updated our 2017 reported non-IFRS revenue range to €3.185 to €3.205 billion to reflect these currency effects and reduced services activity. Our non-IFRS operating margin is now 31.0% to 31.5% and our non-IFRS EPS range is €2.57 to €2.61 for 2017, both solely reflecting increased currency headwinds.”

The Company’s fourth quarter and full year 2017 financial objectives are given on a non-IFRS basis and are as follows:

The Company’s objectives are prepared and communicated only on a non-IFRS basis and are subject to the cautionary statement set forth below.

The 2017 non-IFRS objectives set forth above do not take into account the following accounting elements and are estimated based upon the 2017 principal currency exchange rates above: deferred revenue write-downs estimated at approximately €12 million, share-based compensation expense, including related social charges, estimated at approximately €108 million and amortization of acquired intangibles estimated at approximately €158 million. The above objectives also do not include any impact from other operating income and expense, net principally comprised of acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses, from one-time items included in financial revenue and from one-time tax restructuring gains and losses. Finally, these estimates do not include any new stock option or share grants, or any new acquisitions or restructurings completed after October 25, 2017.

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 Company’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 Company’s current outlook for 2017 takes into consideration, among other things, an uncertain global economic environment. In light of the continuing uncertainties regarding economic, business, social and geopolitical conditions at the global level, the Company’s revenue, net earnings and cash flows may grow more slowly, whether on an annual or quarterly basis. While the Company makes every effort to take into consideration this uncertain macroeconomic outlook, the Company’s business results, however, may not develop as anticipated. Further, 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. The Company’s actual results or performance may also be materially negatively affected by numerous risks and uncertainties, as described in the “Risk Factors” section of the 2016 Document de Référence (Annual Report) filed with the AMF (French Financial Markets Authority) on March 22, 2017, and also available on the Company’s website www.3ds.com.

In preparing such forward-looking statements, the Company has in particular assumed an average US dollar to euro exchange rate of US$1.20 per €1.00 for the 2017 fourth quarter and US$1.14 per €1.00 for the full year 2017 as well as an average Japanese yen to euro exchange rate of JPY135 to €1.00 for the fourth quarter and JPY127.2 to €1.00 for the full year 2017 before hedging; however, currency values fluctuate, and the Company’s results of operations may be significantly affected by changes in exchange rates.

Information in Constant Currencies

When the Company believes it would be helpful for understanding trends in its business, the Company provides percentage increases or decreases in its revenue (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 herein "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.

Information on Growth excluding acquisitions (“organic growth”)

Growth excluding acquisitions have been calculated using the following restatements of the scope of consolidation: 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 1 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

The Company’s global customer base includes companies in 12 industrial sectors: Transportation & Mobility; Industrial Equipment; Aerospace & Defense; Financial & Business Services; High-Tech; Life Sciences; Energy, Process & Utilities; Consumer Goods & Retail; Natural Resources; Architecture, Engineering & Construction; Consumer Packaged Goods & Retail and Marine & Offshore. Commencing in 2012 the Company implemented an industry go-to-market strategy with the dual objectives of broadening and deepening its presence in its largest industries as well as increasing the contribution from a diversified set of industrial sectors. “Diversification Industries” include: Architecture, Engineering & Construction; Consumer Goods & Retail; Consumer Packaged Goods & Retail; Energy, Process & Utilities; Finance Business Services; High-Tech; Life Sciences; Marine & Offshore; and Natural Resources. “Core Industries” include: Transportation & Mobility, Industrial Equipment, Aerospace & Defense and a portion of Business Services.

3DEXPERIENCE New Licenses and Software Contribution

To measure the progressive penetration of 3DEXPERIENCE software, the Company utilizes the following ratios: a) for new licenses revenue, the Company calculates the percentage contribution by comparing total 3DEXPERIENCE new licenses revenue to new licenses revenue for all product lines except SOLIDWORKS and acquisitions; and, b) for software revenue, the Company calculates the percentage contribution by comparing total 3DEXPERIENCE software revenue to software revenue for all product lines except SOLIDWORKS and acquisitions.
