DS Delivers Very Solid Second Quarter, With Results Above Company Objectives

Paris, France, July 26, 2007% Dassault Systèmes (DS) (Nasdaq: DASTY; Euronext Paris: #13065, DSY.PA) reported financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007.


Summary Second Quarter 2007 Financial Results

 
·
GAAP revenue up 14% in constant currencies and GAAP EPS up 24%
 
·
Non-GAAP revenue up 13% in constant currencies and non-GAAP EPS up 14%
 
·
DS raises 2007 revenue objective and reconfirms EPS objective

Bernard Charlès, Dassault Systèmes President and Chief Executive Officer, commented,“Dassault Systèmes delivered a very solid second quarter with revenue and earnings coming in above objectives. Moreover, given the large customer transaction in the year-ago second quarter, achieving non-GAAP revenue growth of 13% in constant currencies and delivering non-GAAP EPS growth of 14% is rewarding.

“One of our most visible initiatives is the successful transformation of our PLM channel. Our results to date demonstrate that we are well in line with our plans, driving growth for CATIA and ENOVIA. At the same time, we continue to advance our technology and strategic roadmap. During the second quarter we launched our newest brand, 3DVIA, whose goal is to enable 3D to become a universal media for online product experiences. This new brand enlarges our addressable market to a wider community of users, to now include professional and consumer communities.”

GAAP total revenue increased 9% to €305.7 million (14% in constant currencies) and GAAP earnings per diluted share increased 24% to €0.31 in the 2007 second quarter.

Non-GAAP total revenue increased 13% in constant currencies to €308.8 million on constant currencies non-GAAP software revenue growth of 10% and services growth of 31%. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share increased 14% to €0.42 in the 2007 second quarter.

Looking more closely at our second quarter activity, we saw strength in all geographic regions, including Europe and across all sales channels. Overall, software revenue increased 10% in constant currencies thanks to the strong growth of recurring revenue coming from new licensing activity and a growing installed base. New licenses revenue decreased year over year, but would have been up excluding the large customer transaction of the year-ago period. ENOVIA’s results clearly illustrate the success of its product lines, with constant currency revenue growth of 32% in total and 23% before including MatrixOne.

“Importantly, our revenue results translated into strong growth in EPS in spite of the persistently strong currency headwinds,” Thibault de Tersant, Senior Executive Vice President and CFO commented.

Non-GAAP PLM revenue increased 14% in constant currencies, with non-GAAP ENOVIA revenue up 32% in constant currencies. Non-GAAP Mainstream 3D revenue increased 11% in constant currencies in the 2007 second quarter. In line with the Company’s expectations, new CATIA and SolidWorks seats totaled 20,457, level with the year-ago period, largely reflecting the very strong year-over-year comparison for CATIA. On a sequential basis, new CATIA and SolidWorks seats increased 4%.

Cash flow and other financial highlights
Net operating cash flow was €68.8 million and €177.2 million, respectively, for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007. Cash and short-term investments totaled €544.6 million and long-term debt was €208.9 million at June 30, 2007. During the second quarter, DS paid cash dividends aggregating €50.8 million.

Other Corporate Announcements
On June 12, 2007, DS completed the acquisition of ICEM, a leading provider of high quality, surface modeling and rendering solutions. For 2006, ICEM’s revenues were approximately €20 million.

Business Outlook

Thibault de Tersant, Senior Executive Vice President and CFO, commented,“Looking to our full year 2007 objectives, our non-GAAP constant currency revenue objective is for growth of about 14-15%, increasing from 13% previously. Thanks to our strong second quarter performance and the inclusion of ICEM following completion of its acquisition, we are increasing our revenue objective. In addition, we are adjusting our yen currency exchange rate assumption, leading to a 2007 reported revenue range of about €1.285 to €1.30 billion. We are reconfirming our earnings per share and operating margin objectives.”

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 our non-GAAP financial performance objectives, are forward-looking statements (within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).

Such forward-looking statements are based on our 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. In preparing such forward-looking statements, we have in particular assumed an average U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate of US$1.35 per €1.00 and an average Japanese yen to euro exchange rate of JPY165 to €1.00 for the last two quarters of 2007; however, currency values fluctuate, and our results of operations may be significantly affected by changes in exchange rates. We have also assumed that there will be no substantial decline in general levels of corporate spending on information technology, and that our increased responsibility for both indirect and direct PLM sales channels, and the resulting commercial and management challenges, will not prevent us from maintaining growth in revenues or cause us to incur substantial unanticipated costs and inefficiencies. Our actual results or performance may also be materially negatively affected by difficulties or adverse changes affecting our partners or our relationships with our partners, including our longstanding, strategic partner, IBM; new product developments and technological changes; errors or defects in our products; growth in market share by our competitors; and the realization of any risks related to the integration of any newly acquired company and internal reorganizations. Unfavorable changes in any of the above or other factors described in the Company’s SEC reports, including the Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2006, which was filed with the SEC on May 29, 2007, could materially affect the Company's financial position or results of operations.

It is not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measurements.

To compensate for these limitations, the supplemental non-GAAP financial information should be read not in isolation, but only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
US GAAP - NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION
(in millions of Euro, except per share data, unaudited)

Readers are cautioned that the supplemental non-GAAP 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 U.S. GAAP measurements. Also, our supplemental non-GAAP financial information may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Further specific limitations for individual non-GAAP measures, and the reasons for presenting non-GAAP financial information, are set forth in the company’s annual report for the year ended December 31, 2006 on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on May 29, 2007. To compensate for these limitations, the supplemental non-GAAP financial information should be read not in isolation, but only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
