Dassault Aviation today reported strong 2021 results, signaling a recovery from the pandemic, but the French aerospace group warned that performance this year could be dampened by the Russia-Ukraine war and strains on supply chains, particularly of raw materials such as titanium sourced from now heavily sanctioned Russia. The company’s revenues last year climbed to €7.23 billion ($8.1 billion) from €5.49 billion the previous year, while earnings more than doubled, to €527 million.
