3D Systems Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Commenting on the results, President and CEO Dr. Jeffrey Graves said, “Our third quarter results were consistent with our recent expectations.   We are seeing steady demand for our industry-leading suite of additive manufacturing solutions in core end markets such as energy, commercial space, precision micro-castings, and medical devices. However, as we had expected, the difficult global macroeconomic and geopolitical environment has put pressure on consumer discretionary spending, which led to significantly lower sales to key dental market customers during the quarter.”  

Dr. Graves also noted, “Regarding our broader business, recent actions we have taken to control operating costs and to streamline our manufacturing and inventory management processes had a positive impact on the company’s profitability metrics during the third quarter.   These actions are allowing us to better navigate ongoing supply chain pressures and more efficiently deliver additive manufacturing solutions that solve our customers’ most challenging production needs.”

“Over the last two and a half years, our entire team of talented employees has worked very hard to re-make 3D Systems into a provider of end-to-end additive solutions focused on high-growth applications for industrial and healthcare markets.   With this transformation largely complete, our priorities are on operational execution and prudent investments in our broad product line of 3D printing technologies and software applications. In doing so, we are focusing on profitability and cash performance, while laying the foundation for the company to advance in exciting new directions to drive value for our customers and shareholders.   An important milestone in this regard was our announcement during the third quarter that 3D Systems has formed a new internal biotech company called Systemic Bio that will apply advanced additive manufacturing techniques to accelerate drug discovery and development.”

Dr. Graves summarized, “Although the challenging macro environment has led to slower growth in certain key end-markets such as dental, I am confident that the long-term fundamentals remain very positive for additive manufacturing, in general, and for 3D Systems in particular.   Our focus on operational execution to capitalize on our past investments remains our highest priority, while our strong balance sheet positions us well to continue investing in high margin, high growth areas of our businesses. With new opportunities for large-scale adoption of additive manufacturing opening before us, and entirely new markets being created in bioprinting, we believe we are very well positioned to deliver on our commitment to become a $1 billion revenue company in five years.”

Summary of Third Quarter Results

Revenue for the third quarter of 2022 decreased (15.3)% to $132.3 million, primarily due to divestitures of non-core businesses during 2021. Non-GAAP revenue excluding divestitures and on a constant currency basis grew 2.7% over the same period last year. The growth of non-GAAP revenue excluding divestitures and on a constant currency basis reflects continued solid product and service demand across both business segments, offset by lower sales to select dental customers due to macroeconomic factors that are negatively impacting the market for elective dental procedures.

Industrial revenue decreased (14.6)% to $68.1 million compared to the same period last year, however, non-GAAP revenue excluding divestitures and on a constant currency basis increased 9.0% year-over-year. Healthcare revenue decreased (16.0)% to $64.2 million, compared to the same period last year, and non-GAAP revenue excluding divestitures and on a constant currency basis decreased (3.5)% year-over-year.

Gross profit margin in the third quarter of 2022 was 39.8% compared to 41.2% in the same period last year. Gross profit margin decreased primarily due to input cost inflation, divestitures, and unfavorable product mix.

Operating expenses increased 6.0% to $86.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to the same period a year ago. The higher operating expenses reflect spending in targeted areas to support future growth, including expenses from acquired businesses, research and development, and investments in corporate infrastructure, as well as a $9.0 million increase in legal and other settlement costs, partially offset by the absence of expenses from divested businesses. Non-GAAP operating expenses increased from $49.3 million in Q3 2021 to $58.3 million in Q3 2022. The higher non-GAAP operating expenses reflect spending in targeted areas to support future growth.

Revising FY 2022 Guidance

3D Systems is updating its FY 2022 guidance to significantly tighten the revenue range and to improve the outlook for reduced non-GAAP operating expenses. These changes to FY 2022 guidance are based on improved visibility into likely revenue performance during the fourth quarter of 2022 as well the impact of cost-efficiency actions.

   FY 2022 Guidance as of:
     
   August 9, 2022  November 9, 2022
     
Revenue: $530 - $570 million $535 - $545 million
     
Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin: 39% - 41% 39% - 41%
     
Non-GAAP Operating Expenses: $245 - $250 million $240 - $245 million
     

Our revised FY 2022 guidance assumes no significant additional changes in the macroeconomic environment that could negatively impact our business demand or disrupt our supply chain, such as a resurgence of business and/or travel restrictions related to COVID-19, geopolitical events, recession, or foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Financial Liquidity

As of September 30, 2022, the company had cash and short-term investments on hand of $609.4 million. Cash and short-term investments have decreased $180.3 million since December 31, 2021, driven primarily by $84.7 million paid for acquisitions and equity investments, cash used in operations of $52.4 million, capital expenditures of $17.1 million, and other cash used for financing activities of $13.0 million.
