(Reuters) - French software company Dassault Systemes said on Wednesday fourth-quarter revenue topped its guidance, driven by a strong performance by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

The company's fourth-quarter revenue came in at 1.04 billion euros (£918.9 million), compared with its revenue outlook of between 982 million euros and 1 billion euros.

The company also announced a contract with Airbus for the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
