Summary Comments on Results

Dr. Jeffrey Graves, president and CEO of 3D Systems said, “We delivered improved profitability in the second quarter, reflecting an intense focus on our cost structure and operational efficiencies, in the face of a continuously challenging macroeconomic climate for our industry. Our cost savings initiatives, which we first announced in March, favorably impacted both gross margins and operating expenses on a sequential basis for the second quarter. Key elements of our cost and efficiency initiative include consolidation of our operational footprint, restructuring of our workforce, and various efficiency initiatives across the business. As announced, these savings initiatives will extend through mid-2026, paced in part by the rate at which real-estate leases for exited facilities are curtailed. We are benefiting from our prior efforts to fully in-source manufacturing and supply chain operations, an initiative which is now virtually complete and helping to offset headwinds from tariffs. In the second quarter, tariffs increased our costs by roughly $1 million, but were largely countered through improved operating efficiencies in manufacturing operations which supported our gross margin performance. Looking ahead we expect the impact of tariffs to continue impacting our operating costs as we move through the second half of the year.”

Dr. Graves continued, “From a revenue standpoint, consolidated revenue for the second quarter declined 16% year-over-year, reflecting the significant softness we have experienced in our customers’ capex spending for new production capacity over the last several quarters. We attribute this softness to the uncertainties created by the extreme volatility in tariffs, which is expected to continue for some time. However, when viewed on a sequential quarterly basis revenues grew slightly, despite the sale of the Geomagic software business which occurred at the very beginning of Q2. Excluding first quarter revenues from Geomagic of just over $7 million, revenues in the second quarter were up roughly 8% on a sequential basis. This sequential growth was the net effect of two strong opposing factors, with the first being headwinds from continuing softness in our customers’ capex spending. This drag, which particularly affected our customers in consumer-related businesses, was offset by strength in our Med Tech and high-reliability industrial markets. For our Med Tech business, performance in our Personal Health Services led the way, growing 13% year-over-year and 16% sequentially. This performance was driven by the continued growth in orthopedic procedures using 3D printing technology and through our expansion into trauma-related orthopedic surgeries. With market adjacencies now opening, we anticipate growth in these medical markets to continue. Our dental business was down 3% for the quarter, driven entirely by a sharp decline in demand from customers serving the aligner market, which experienced a 19% reduction sequentially in the quarter. For our industrial customers, while consumer-facing markets were weak, we experienced strong demand in Aerospace & Defense, with revenues growing 84% from prior year, and 53% sequentially from the first quarter. Total A&D revenues now exceed $30 million annually and are a significant focus moving forward. Central to our growth in A&D is our unique ability to meet customers’ needs from the inception of process development, through initial part production, and ultimately to full-scale printer supply when demand rises. We are the only US provider of 3D printing technologies who can offer this full spectrum of capability, and do so over the entire breadth of polymer and metal printing technologies. Moreover, we can do this regionally within the US, and within EMEA for industrial customers needing high reliability components. For this reason, we are excited about our future growth in these markets that demand the highest component reliability, such as Aerospace & Defense, AI infrastructure, and Oil & Gas, to name a few.”

Dr. Graves concluded, “As previously announced, late in the second quarter, we took significant steps to bolster our balance sheet, permanently retiring $88 million in outstanding debt at a meaningful discount to par, extending maturities for the majority of our remaining debt to 2030, and repurchasing 8 million shares of our common stock to reduce dilution to shareholders. We believe this balance sheet transformation, in combination with continued execution against our restructuring actions and critical new product introductions will deliver increasing shareholder value in the future.”

Second Quarter 2025 Results

Board of Directors Rejects Contingent Resignation of Independent Director and Audit Committee Chair

On August 9, 2025, recognizing the contributions of our Audit Committee chair in connection with our ongoing efforts to remediate the material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, our board of directors unanimously voted to reject the contingent resignation of Ms. Claudia Drayton. Ms. Drayton had submitted her contingent resignation after her nomination for re-election to our board of directors received less than the majority of the votes cast at our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. Following the recommendation of our nominating committee, the board of directors determined that the acceptance of Ms. Drayton’s resignation would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders due to Ms. Drayton’s ongoing leadership in key strategic initiatives, including as Audit Committee chair overseeing the above-referenced remediation efforts. Ms. Drayton, a seasoned, career long, finance leader and CFO of public companies, will continue to serve as a member of our board of directors and as Audit Committee chair. For further information, see Part II, Item 5(a) of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

3D SYSTEMS CORPORATION
Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

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, non-GAAP Operating expense 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.

Certain columns may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in thousands.

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 non-GAAP operating expense 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.
