In line with the group's solid earnings development in the first 9M '19, Dassault Systèmes (OTC: OTCPK:DASTY; [ETR: DSY]) has delivered quite a strong performance with stock returning 39% YTD - way ahead of its benchmark Eurostoxx50 index +22% YTD. The stock has largely benefited from a growing share of recurring revenues on the back of strong license growth last year as well as accelerating the adoption of the 3D EXPERIENCE platform - key future driver.
