Dassault Systèmes announces the implementation of a new international employee stock ownership offer

Dassault systems (Euronext Paris: FR0014003TT8, DSY.PA) announces the launch of an employee share ownership scheme.

Following the success of an initial offering conducted in 2021, this new employee stock option offering will be offered to approximately 99% of Dassault Systèmes employees worldwide, subject to the terms set forth in the appendix to this press release. This will result in a capital increase reserved for employees of up to 7 million Dassault Systèmes shares scheduled for June 15, 2023.

This program aims to involve employees more closely in the development of Dassault Systèmes and allow them to benefit from the value they help create every day.

Bernard Charlès, Chairman and CEO of Dassault Systèmes, states: “Dassault Systèmes’ growth is based on a shared raison d’être of ‘balancing product, nature and life’. Our company thinks holistically and long-term about its development – growth of the company and individual further development of each individual. I am therefore pleased, in agreement with the Board of Directors, to once again offer Dassault Systèmes employees the opportunity to invest in and grow our combined company through our Employee Share Plan. »
