Dassault Systèmes' stock closed on Tuesday, December 30 at 23.87 euros, up by 1.06% compared to the previous day. After three months of significant corrections, the French professional software specialist shows a modest rebound in a year-end market characterized by reduced volumes.
Stock Market Journey in December
Dassault Systèmes' stock performance in December was marked by a series of downward adjustments by analysts. On December 18, Oddo BHF lowered its target from 30 to 28 euros, citing a cautious revision due to unfavorable currency developments, while maintaining a neutral opinion on the stock. A few days earlier, on December 16, Goldman Sachs also reduced its target from 32 to 29 euros while maintaining its buy recommendation. These revisions reflect the deterioration in outlook communicated by the group in November, when it revised its annual revenue growth forecast down to a range of 4% to 6%, from previously 6% to 8%. Despite this challenging context, analysts largely maintain neutral opinions, with a median target of 28 euros, representing a potential upside of about 17% from the current price. The next financial milestones to watch are the first quarter 2026 results, expected on April 23, which will assess the group's ability to correct its trajectory in an uncertain market environment.
