2. DASSAULT AVIATION ACTIVITIES

2.1. Introduction

At its meeting of July 22, 2025, the Board of Directors, under the chairmanship of Mr. Éric Trappier, approved the financial statements for the 1st half of 2025.

The commercial success of the Rafale was strengthened with the signing and entry into force, in the 1st half of 2025, of India's acquisition contract of 26 Rafale Marine to equip the Indian Navy. India will be the first user outside France of the Rafale Marine. Since the beginning of the program, 533 Rafale have been ordered, including 323 for export.

The backlog set a new record at June 30, 2025, at EUR 48.3 billion (including 314 aircraft: 186 Rafale Export, 53 Rafale France and 75 Falcon).

Net sales for the 1st half of 2025 was EUR 2.8 billion, up 12% compared with the 1st half of 2024. 7 Rafale (4 Rafale Export and 3 Rafale France) and 12 Falcon were delivered. Operating income increased by 6% compared with the 1 st half of 2024, to EUR 180 million. Net income for the 1st half of 2025 was EUR 386 million, down by EUR 56 million, compared with the 1st half of 2024. This net income includes the tax surcharge in France of EUR 67 million.

Military and budgetary contexts create uncertainty for business activity and results.

Regarding the tariffs, Dassault Aviation is awaiting the final outcome of negotiations between the United States and Europe, the result of which could impact our Falcon activity.

This 1st half saw:

  • the delivery of 7 Rafale (4 Rafale Export and 3 Rafale France) and 12 Falcon,
  • the signing on April 28, 2025 and the entry into force on May 7, 2025 of India's acquisition contract of 26 Rafale Marine to equip the Indian Navy,
  • the order for 8 Falcon,
  • the continuation of development work of the Rafale and the F5 standard risk clearance notification,
  • in the context of the "Make in India", Dassault Aviation, through the joint venture DRAL, set up the 1 st final assembly line for the Falcon 2000 outside of France.

The 55th Paris Air Show once again demonstrated its ability to bring together the aerospace sector, with a record attendance rate (more than 300,000 visitors). It was an opportunity for meetings and discussions with institutions, foreign delegations, Falcon clients and partners. The popularity of our aircraft was illustrated by the success of the Rafale and Falcon 6X flight demonstrations. The Rafale and the UCAS were the stars of the static displays, enhanced by the Battle Lab presentation on future challenges of collaborative combat. The Space Hub was also in the spotlight, with the presentation of the VORTEX space aircraft. "L'Avion des Métiers" was very active, allowing visitors to learn about various jobs and training in the aerospace and defense sectors.

***

The Board of Directors would like to congratulate all Dassault Aviation employees for their contribution to commercial success and program implementation, through their commitment, efficiency and expertise.

2.2. Programs development

  • the F5 standard risk clearance notification,
  • as a reminder, at the end of 2024, the French Minister of the Armed Forces announced the launch of the development work on the unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) that will complement the F5 standard (post-2030).

For Export,

  • the signing on April 28, 2025 and the entry into force on May 7, 2025 of India's acquisition contract of 26 Rafale Marine to equip the Indian Navy. India became Rafale Marine's first export client,
  • the delivery of 4 Rafale, with 186 yet to be delivered,
  • the on-schedule roll out in January 2025 of the first F4 standard Rafale for the United Arab Emirates in Istres, which will remain at Dassault Aviation's flight test center so that flight tests can be carried out with a view to the first deliveries in late 2026,
  • the ongoing export prospecting.

Space

The 1st half of 2025 saw:

  • the signing of an agreement to support the development of a spaceplane demonstrator (VORTEX family "Véhicule Orbital Réutilisable de Transport et d'Exploration"), by the Minister of the French Armed Forces and the Chairman and CEO of Dassault Aviation at the Paris Air Show,
  • the signing of a letter of intent between the European Space Agency (ESA) and Dassault Aviation, paving the way for potential collaborations.

Future Combat Air System (FCAS)

Dassault Aviation is the prime contractor and architect of pillar 1, the NGF, and participates in other pillars, through co-contracting or sub-contracting.

Detailed specifications of the NGF demonstrator are continuing. The industrial teams of the 3 partner countries (France, Germany and Spain) are working together on a physical platform installed in Saint-Cloud.

Finally, at the Paris Air Show, Dassault Aviation and Agence Ministérielle pour l'IA de Défense (AMIAD) signed a memorandum of understanding to initiate research and development work on several artificial intelligence projects in air combat.

Falcon programs

In the 1st half of 2025, Dassault Aviation delivered 12 Falcon, the same as in the 1st half of 2024, and recorded 8 orders, compared with 11 in the 1st half of 2024.

Falcon 6X

Client feedback confirms a very high level of passenger comfort (acoustics, brightness, stability in flight and in descent) during more than 3,400 flight hours of the Falcon 6X fleet in service.

The steep descent has been certified by EASA (the European Union Aviation Safety Agency). Notably, the Falcon 6X can now land at London City Airport.

Falcon 10X

The development of the Falcon 10X continues. It will be equipped with the most spacious and comfortable cabin on the market.

2.3. Customer support

In the area of military support in France, Dassault Aviation continues to fulfill support contracts for the Rafale, Mirage 2000, ATL2 and AlphaJet fleets and to meet its availability commitments. Dassault Aviation continues to support the Armed Forces in their preparation exercises for high-intensity conflict.

Dassault Aviation also remains committed to supporting in-service Falcon and military fleets as closely as possible to operational staff and their needs.

2.4. Modernizing of the industrial infrastructure

Dassault Aviation is continuing its efforts to invest in its industrial infrastructure, including:

  • in Cergy: the end of the transfer of production units in January 2025 (building reception completed in July 2024),
  • in Martignas: the extended buildings became operational in April 2025 for the production of Rafale wings and tail fins,

In India, Dassault Aviation, through the joint venture DRAL, set up the 1st final assembly line for the Falcon 2000 outside of France.

Dassault Aviation contributes to the development of the Indian supply chain and is continuing its partnerships in India, with:

  • Tata Advanced Systems, to manufacture Rafale fuselage sections, with the establishment of a dedicated production site in Hyderabad, India,
  • Dynamatic, to deliver Falcon 6X tanks,
  • Mahindra, to supply Falcon 6X cockpit seats,
  • an increased volume of primary parts supplied and new processes approved at our Indian suppliers.

APPENDIX

FINANCIAL REPORTING

IFRS 8 "Operating Segments" requires the presentation of information per segment according to internal management criteria.

The entire activity of Dassault Aviation relates to the aerospace sector. The internal reporting made to the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and to the Chief Operating Officer, as used for the strategy and decision-making, includes no performance analysis, under the terms of IFRS 8, at a lower level to this domain.

DEFINITION OF ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

To reflect the actual consolidated economic performance and for monitoring and comparability reasons, Dassault Aviation presented an adjusted income statement of:

  • foreign exchange gains/losses resulting from the exercise of hedging instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting under IFRS standards. This income, presented as financial result in the consolidated financial statements, is reclassified as net sales and thus as operating income in the adjusted income statement;
  • the value of foreign exchange derivatives which do not qualify for hedge accounting, by neutralizing the change in fair value of these instruments (considering that gains or losses on hedging should only impact net income as commercial flows occur), with the exception of derivatives allocated to hedge balance-sheet positions whose change in fair value is presented as operating income;
  • amortization of assets valued as part of the purchase price allocation (business combinations), known as "PPA" (Purchase Price Allocation);
  • adjustments made by Thales in its financial reporting.

Dassault Aviation also presents the "available cash" indicator, which reflects the amount of total liquid assets, net of financial debt. It covers the following balance sheet items:

  • cash and cash equivalents;
  • other current financial assets;
  • financial debt, excluding lease liabilities.

The calculation of this indicator is detailed in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements (see note 7).

Only consolidated financial statements are audited by statutory auditors. Adjusted financial data are subject to the verification procedures applicable to all information provided in the half-yearly report.

Note 1 - Accounting policies

1.1. General principles

On July 22, 2025, the board of directors closed and authorized the publication of Dassault Aviation's condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025.

Dassault Aviation is a Société Anonyme (limited company), listed and registered in the Paris Trade and Companies Register under number 712 042 456.

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" and IFRS as adopted by the European Union as of June 30, 2025. The interim financial statements follow the same accounting rules and methods as those adopted for the annual consolidated financial statements drawn up as of December 31, 2024, as detailed in the 2024 annual financial report.

The amendment to IAS 21 regarding the lack of exchangeability, for application from January 1, 2025 has no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025.

Context

Dassault Aviation operates in a complex environment, due in particular to geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties.

On April 2, 2025, the United States announced an increase in global tariffs. Dassault Aviation is awaiting the final outcome of negotiations between the United States and Europe.

As of June 30, 2025, no significant impact has been recognized in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Seasonality

In previous fiscal years, a recurring seasonality phenomenon has been observed. As a result, the interim results as of June 30, 2025 are not necessarily representative of what might be expected for fiscal year 2025.

Provisions for retirement severance payments

Pension costs for the half-year are calculated on the basis of the actuarial valuations performed at the end of the previous fiscal year. If necessary, these valuations are adjusted to take into account curtailments, settlements or other major non-recurring events during the period. Furthermore, amounts recognized in equity and liabilities in respect of defined benefit plans are adjusted, if necessary, in order to reflect material changes impacting the yield of investment-grade corporate bonds issued in the geographical area concerned (the benchmark used to determine the discount rate), the inflation rate and the actual return on plan assets.

Goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment at each year-end and whenever there is evidence of impairment.

Income taxes

For the half-year closing, Dassault Aviation's tax expense is calculated by applying the estimated annual average tax rate for the year to the accounting result for the period. This expense is, where necessary, adjusted for the tax impact of exceptional items during the period. In this respect, the tax charge for the period includes, for Dassault Aviation Parent Company, the corporate tax surcharge, calculated based on the average corporate tax due for 2024 and 2025.

1.2. Segment reporting

IFRS 8, "Operating Segments," requires the presentation of information according to internal management criteria. The activity of Dassault Aviation relates entirely to the aerospace domain. The internal reporting made to the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and to the Chief Operating Officer, as used for strategy and decision-making, includes no performance analysis, under IFRS 8 terms, at a level lower than this sector.

Note 2 - Scope of consolidation

Dassault Aviation is a French group that designs and manufactures military aircraft, business jets and space systems. Dassault Aviation mainly operates in France.

(2) see breakdown of financial debt in note 9.

A full analysis of the performance of investments, classified as other current financial assets and cash equivalents, is performed at each closing date. The investment portfolio does not show, line-by-line, any objective indication of significant impairment as of June 30, 2025 (as was the case on December 31, 2024). The corresponding risk analysis is described in note 18.

Note 8 - Equity

(1) other financial liabilities mainly include locked-in employee profit-sharing funds. Employee profit-sharing corresponds to "other long-term benefits," and should be valued and discounted according to the principles of IAS 19 (revised). However, in view of the low historical differences between remuneration rate and discount rate, Dassault Aviation considers that the valuation method by amortized cost constitutes a reasonable approximation of the profit-sharing liability.

(2) the actuarial adjustments that contributed to the decrease in provisions for retirement severance payments are broken down as follows:

French companies -26,477
US companies 3,362
Total actuarial adjustments -23,115

The net assets from overfinancing Dassault Falcon Jet's pension plans are posted in "Other receivables" (EUR 32,978 thousand at June 30, 2025 and EUR 39,894 thousand at December 31, 2024).

The discount rate used to calculate the provision for retirement severance payments for French companies (determined by reference to the yield for high-quality corporate long-term bonds) was 3.70% as of June 30, 2025, compared with 3.30% as of December 31, 2024. The rate used to calculate the provision for retirement severance payments for U.S. companies was 5.95% as of June 30, 2025 compared with 5.80% as of December 31, 2024.

The sensitivity of the net pension obligation to a change in the discount rate as of June 30, 2025 is as follows:

Contract liabilities -22,418,802 -18,836,124

For a given contract, a contract asset (liability) represents the unbilled receivables, less deferred income and advances and progress payments received from the customer.

The increase in contract liabilities is mainly explained by the increase in advances and progress payments received from customers. These are increasing primarily due to the receipt of progress payments on the Rafale Export contracts.

As Dassault Aviation acts as "principal" on the Rafale Export contracts, the progress payments received include the co-contractors' share. The progress payments paid reflect the repayment of the co-contractors' share:

Note 18 - Financial risk management

18.1. Cash and liquidity risks

18.1.1. Financial debts

Dassault Aviation has no significant risk in relation to its financial debt. The characteristics of the latter are described in note 9.

18.1.2. Cash, cash equivalents and other current financial assets

Dassault Aviation has a solid financial structure and works only with top-tier banks.

The investment portfolio is primarily composed of time deposits and money market investments with no significant risk of impairment.

(in EUR thousands) Market value As %
Cash at bank and in hand, money market investments and time deposits 7,098,250 74%
Investments in bonds and other debt securities 1,613,087 17%
Unspecified investments 860,628 9%
Total 9,571,965 100%

A full analysis of the performance of investments is performed at each closing date. The investment portfolio does not show, line-by-line, any objective indication of significant impairment as of June 30, 2025 (as was the case on December 31, 2024).

These investments could be converted into cash depending on Dassault Aviation's operational needs. Cash resources and its portfolio of marketable securities therefore allow Dassault Aviation to meet its commitments without any liquidity risk. Dassault Aviation is not faced with restrictions with regard to the availability of its cash and its portfolio of marketable securities.

18.2. Credit and counterparty risks

18.2.1. Credit risk on bank counterparties

Dassault Aviation allocates its investments and performs its cash and foreign exchange transactions with recognized financial institutions. Dassault Aviation has no investments or accounts with financial institutions presenting a significant risk of default.

18.2.2. Customer default risk

Dassault Aviation limits counterparty risk by conducting most of its sales in cash and ensuring that the loans are secured by export insurance guarantees (Bpifrance Assurance Export) or collaterals. The share of receivables not covered by these procedures is subject to regular individual monitoring and, if necessary, a provision for impairment.

Given the arrangements in risk mitigation that are in place, and the provisions made in its accounts, Dassault Aviation's residual exposure to the risk of default by a customer in a country subject to uncertainties is limited.

The Bpifrance Assurance Export guarantees and collateral obtained and not exercised as of the closing date are of the same nature as those as of December 31, 2024.

The manufacturing risk is also guaranteed with Bpifrance Assurance Export for major military export contracts.

18.3. Other market risks

18.3.1. Foreign exchange risk

Dassault Aviation covers risks from exchange rates using derivative financial instruments whose book value is presented below:

(in EUR thousands) 06/30/2025 12/31/2024
Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities
Foreign exchange derivatives 81,139 7,778 1,987 101,546
Net derivative financial instruments 73,361 0 0 99,559

Dassault Aviation is exposed to a foreign exchange risk through the parent company in relation to its Falcon sales, which are mainly denominated in US dollars. This risk is partially hedged by using forward currency contracts and foreign exchange options.

Dassault Aviation partially hedges its cash flows that are considered highly probable. It ensures that the initial future cash flows will be sufficient to use the foreign exchange hedges in place. The hedged amount may be adjusted in accordance with changes over time in expected net cash flows.

This risk is permanent, taking into account exchange rate fluctuations and volatility. This is a significant risk for Dassault Aviation, since the measures put in place to limit this risk are not sufficient to make the net risk zero (periods not covered by hedges, possible financial impact of hedges already taken out the event of reversal of market assumptions).

The foreign exchange derivatives subscribed by Dassault Aviation are not all eligible for hedge accounting under IFRS 9 "Financial instruments." The breakdown is presented in the table below:

Statutory auditors' review report on the half-yearly financial information

For the period from January 1, 2025 to June 30, 2025

_____

To the Shareholders,

In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by your Shareholders' Meeting and in accordance with the requirements of article L. 451-1-2 III of the French Monetary and Financial Code ("Code monétaire et financier"), we hereby report to you on:

  • the review of the accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements of Dassault Aviation, for the period from January 1, 2025 to June 30, 2025;
  • the verification of the information presented in the half-yearly management report.

These condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Board of Directors. Our role is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.

I - Conclusion on the financial statements

We conducted our review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France.

A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. Therefore, the assurance obtained during our review that the accounts, taken as a whole, are free from material misstatement is a moderate level of assurance, which is lower level that the one obtained from an audit.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34- standard of the IFRSs as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.

II - Specific verification

We have also verified the information presented in the half-yearly management report on the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements subject to our review.

We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements.
