Dassault Systèmes Stock: 2.5% Rebound After Disappointing 2025 Results
Dassault Systèmes stock has risen by 2.5% this Thursday morning to €18.22, following the announcement of its 2025 annual results. This technical rebound comes after a more than 20% drop over the past seven days, as the market penalized the company for its perceived insufficient growth. Two banks lowered their price targets this very morning.
Analyst Revisions Following Annual Results
The release of Dassault Systèmes' 2025 financial statements on Wednesday triggered a wave of revisions among analysts. The company reported moderate revenue growth coupled with a robust operating margin, while anticipating an acceleration of between 3 and 5% for 2026, driven by Cloud services and the monetization of its industrial artificial intelligence solutions. This Thursday, Oddo BHF reduced its price target from €28.00 to €23.00, maintaining a neutral rating on the stock. Similarly, JP Morgan lowered its target from €26.00 to €21.00, also maintaining a neutral recommendation. At the current price of €18.22, these new targets suggest a potential revaluation of approximately 15 to 26% according to the two institutions. The next quarterly results, expected on April 23, will be a crucial milestone to verify the growth trajectory announced by the management.
Technical Analysis of the Stock
From a technical standpoint, Dassault Systèmes' stock price is significantly below all its reference moving averages. At €18.22, the stock is about 22% below its 50-day moving average, set at €23.49, indicating a pronounced bearish momentum over recent weeks. The gap with the 200-day moving average, positioned at €27.64, exceeds 34%, signaling a significant detachment from the long-term trend. The RSI (Relative Strength Index), an indicator measuring the magnitude of recent movements, stands at 19, well into the oversold zone — usually set at 30. This extreme level indicates that selling pressure has been particularly intense in recent days, following a weekly decline of more than 20%. The nearest support is at €17.77, corresponding to the previous day's low. Over a year, the stock has declined by 54.5%, reflecting a substantial correction that has deeply reconfigured the valuation of the specialist in 3D design and digital twins.
