Summary Comments on Results

Commenting on first quarter results, Dr. Jeffrey Graves, President and CEO of 3D Systems said, “We are off to a solid start in 2023, and believe we are well-positioned to execute on our full-year revenue and profitability plans for this year. As expected, we saw a return to our historical seasonality performance this year, with first quarter 2023 revenues mirroring the percentage of full year performance we experienced in 2021. At a more detailed level, first quarter revenues were driven in part by continued softness in our dental orthodontic market, which we attribute to reported sluggishness in consumer discretionary spending, in combination with pre-planned customer inventory reduction efforts. We expect these effects to moderate to some extent in the second half of the year. Off-setting this weakness, our other major end-markets remained robust, driven by continued adoption of additive manufacturing in production environments in the US and Europe. These effects were seen in the medical markets, where our personalized health service and increasing focus on point-of-care solutions continues to fuel robust growth rates, in excess of 20%. Industrial markets also remained strong, including commercial rocketry and aerospace propulsion, industrial products, and consumer goods, all of which contributed to strong organic revenue growth rates of over 9%. With the broadest range of additive manufacturing technology in the industry, we continue to invest strongly in R&D to modernize our platforms while remaining committed to delivering on our efficiency and productivity efforts. This balanced approach will enable us to meet our commitment of delivering positive Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow for the full year of 2023, while supporting the key application developments that will deliver sustained, long-term organic growth in the years ahead.”

Dr. Graves continued, “With regard to our growth initiatives, we are pleased to report exciting progress across many areas of our developing businesses, including our early success with Oqton software for dental laboratories, where adoption and renewal rates are very strong, fueled by efficiency gains that these labs are experiencing with the Oqton platform. In our industrial markets, we made public for the first time our multi-year collaboration with TE Connectivity on electrical connectors, which holds promise to be an extremely important market for our additive manufacturing technology in the years ahead. In the medical arena, our market-leading personalized healthcare solutions, which we are now moving into select point-of-care hospital environments, offered what we feel is a glimpse into the future of customized orthopedic implants, as demonstrated at Salzburg’s University Hospital in February. Finally, in the area of regenerative medicine, as the quarter ended, we were extremely pleased to see our Systemic Bio subsidiary be awarded its first contract from a major pharmaceutical company. This multi-year program will leverage our 3D printed organ-on-a-chip technology to study the effects of new drug therapies in the fight against cancer. We anticipate more contracts with additional pharmaceutical companies to follow later this year. Finally, we are harvesting the gains in efficiency that our operations in-sourcing has provided and continue to look for additional cost synergies in multiple parts of our business. In support of our commitment to generate positive Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, we have expanded on our restructuring efforts that we announced a couple months ago to realize even more cost benefits, as announced in a separate release today. As a result, we are increasing our full year 2023 expectation to deliver $2 million or better in Adjusted EBITDA, while maintaining the previously announced outlook for revenue, non-GAAP gross profit margin and breakeven or better free cash flow.”

Dr. Graves concluded, “While no one knows how the winds of the global economy and ongoing geopolitical unrest may blow, with our strong balance sheet, our outlook for positive Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow performance in 2023, and exciting markets for growth available to us in the years ahead, we are confident in our game plan and more optimistic than ever about our future.”

Summary of First Quarter Results

Revenue for the first quarter of 2023 decreased 8.8% to $121,236 compared to the same period last year, and revenue on a constant currency basis decreased 6.5%. The decline of revenue primarily reflects lower sales to certain dental market customers due to macroeconomic factors that are negatively impacting the demand for elective dental procedures, partially offset by continued solid product and service demand across other areas of the business. First quarter 2023 revenue from our non-dental markets increased 12.3% on a constant currency basis compared to first quarter 2022.

Healthcare Solutions revenue decreased 24.3% to $48,725 compared to the same period last year. Healthcare Solutions revenue on a constant currency basis decreased 23.4% year over year due to continued softness in our dental orthodontic market, which was down 46.2% versus the same period last year. Healthcare Solutions revenue from our non-dental markets increased 22.4% on a constant currency basis, versus the same period last year.

Industrial Solutions revenue increased 5.6% to $72,511 compared to the same period last year. Industrial Solutions, revenue on a constant currency basis increased 9.3% year over year.

Gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2023 was 38.8% compared to 40.4% in the same period last year. Non-GAAP gross profit margin was 39.0% compared to 40.6% in the same period last year. Gross profit margin decreased primarily due to input cost inflation and unfavorable product mix.

Net loss attributable to 3D Systems Corporation decreased by $2,622 to a loss of $29,421 in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in Net loss attributable to 3D Systems Corporation primarily reflects lower total sales volume, inflationary impacts on our input costs, and continued investments in future growth partially offset by an increase in interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents resulting from increased interest rates.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $12,017 to a loss of $10,094 in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA primarily reflects lower total sales volume, inflationary impacts on our input costs, and continued investments in future growth.

Updating 2023 Outlook

3D Systems is raising its full-year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA financial guidance and confirming its 2023 revenue, non-GAAP gross profit margin and free cash flow financial guidance as follows:

Full Year 2023 Guidance as of:
 
  February 28, 2023 May 8, 2023
     
Revenue: $545 – $575 million $545 – $575 million
Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin: 40% – 42% 40% – 42%
Adjusted EBITDA: Break even or better $2 million or better
Free Cash Flow: Break even or better Break even or better

For purposes of the above guidance, free cash flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less changes in working capital less capital expenditures.

Financial Liquidity

At March 31, 2023, the company had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $529,925, a decrease of $38,812 since December 31, 2022. The decrease resulted primarily due to cash used in operations of $27,722, capital expenditures of $9,027, and taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards of $2,115. At March 31, 2023, the company had total debt net of deferred financing costs of $450,179.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this release that are not statements of historical or current facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the company to be materially different from historical results or from any future results or projections expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In many cases, forward looking statements can be identified by terms such as “believes,” “belief,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “estimates,” “intends,” “anticipates” or “plans” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements are based upon management’s beliefs, assumptions and current expectations and may include comments as to the company’s beliefs and expectations as to future events and trends affecting its business and are necessarily subject to uncertainties, many of which are outside the control of the company. The factors described under the headings “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as other factors, could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected or predicted in forward-looking statements. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are not, and should not be relied upon as a guarantee of future performance or results, nor will they necessarily prove to be accurate indications of the times at which such performance or results will be achieved. The forward-looking statements included are made only as the date of the statement. 3D Systems undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements made by management or on its behalf, whether as a result of future developments, subsequent events or circumstances or otherwise, except as required by law.

Presentation of Information in this Press Release

3D Systems reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. Management also reviews and reports certain non-GAAP measures, including: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP diluted income (loss) per share, and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain items that management does not view as part of 3D Systems’ core results as they may be highly variable, may be unusual or infrequent, are difficult to predict and can distort underlying business trends and results. Management believes that the non-GAAP measures provide useful additional insight into underlying business trends and results and provide meaningful information regarding the comparison of period-over-period results. Additionally, management uses the non-GAAP measures for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, including allocating resources and evaluating results relative to employee compensation targets. 3D Systems’ non-GAAP measures are not calculated in accordance with or as required by GAAP and may not be calculated in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should thus be considered as supplemental in nature and not considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

To calculate the non-GAAP measures, 3D Systems excludes the impact of the following items:

  • amortization of intangible assets, a non-cash expense, as 3D Systems’ intangible assets were primarily acquired in connection with business combinations;
  • costs incurred in connection with acquisitions and divestitures, such as legal, consulting and advisory fees;
  • stock-based compensation expenses, a non-cash expense;
  • charges related to restructuring and cost optimization plans, impairment charges, including goodwill, and divestiture gains or losses;
  • certain compensation expense related to the 2021 Volumetric acquisition; and
  • costs, including legal fees, related to significant or unusual litigation matters.

Amortization of intangibles and acquisition and divestiture-related costs are excluded from non-GAAP measures as the timing and magnitude of business combination transactions are not predictable, can vary significantly from period to period and the purchase price allocated to amortizable intangible assets and the related amortization period are unique to each acquisition. Amortization of intangible assets will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. While intangible assets contribute to the company’s revenue generation, the amortization of intangible assets does not directly relate to the sale of the company’s products or services. Additionally, intangible assets amortization expense typically fluctuates based on the size and timing of the company’s acquisition activity. Accordingly, the company believes excluding the amortization of intangible assets enhances the company’s and investors’ ability to compare the company’s past financial performance with its current performance and to analyze underlying business performance and trends. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to certain of our employees, the expense is non-cash in nature, and we continue to evaluate our business performance excluding stock-based compensation; therefore, it is excluded from non-GAAP measures. Stock-based compensation expenses will recur in future periods. Charges related to restructuring and cost optimization plans, impairment charges, including goodwill, divestiture gains or losses, and the costs, including legal fees, related to significant or unusual litigation matters are excluded from non-GAAP measures as the frequency and magnitude of these activities may vary widely from period to period. Additionally, impairment charges, including goodwill, are non-cash. Furthermore, the company believes the costs, including legal fees, related to significant or unusual litigation matters are not indicative of our core business’ operations. Finally, 3D Systems excludes contingent consideration recorded as compensation expense related to the 2021 Volumetric acquisition from non-GAAP measures as management evaluates financial performance excluding this expense, which is viewed by management as similar to acquisition consideration.

The matters discussed above are tax effected, as applicable, in calculating non-GAAP diluted income (loss) per share.

Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income, plus income tax (provision) benefit, interest and other income (expense), net, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, depreciation expense, and other non-GAAP adjustments, all as described above, is used by management to evaluate performance and helps measure financial performance period-over-period.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the accompanying schedules.

3D Systems does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain measures on a GAAP basis. The company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP gross profit margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because certain items, including litigation costs, acquisition expenses, stock-based compensation expense, intangible assets amortization expense, restructuring expenses, and goodwill impairment charges are difficult to predict and estimate. These items are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond the company’s control, and as such, any associated estimate and its impact on GAAP performance could vary materially.
