IMPLICATIONS OF BEING AN EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY

WeSince our initial public offering, we have continued to qualify as an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). An EGC may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies.

As an EGC:

We are exempt from the requirement to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;2002;

We are permitted to provide less extensive disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;

We are not required to give our stockholders non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and

We have elected to use an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

We will continue to operate under these provisions until December 31, 2018, or such earlier time that we are no longer an EGC. We would cease to be an EGC if we have more than $1.0$1.07 billion in annual revenues, qualify as a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which requires us to have more than $700 million in market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of these reduced burdens.

The ExOne Company and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(dollars in thousands, except per-share and share amounts)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Organization

The ExOne Company (“ExOne”) is a corporation organized under the laws of the state of Delaware. ExOne was formed on January 1, 2013, when The Ex One Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, merged with and into a Delaware corporation, which survived and changed its name to The ExOne Company (the “Reorganization”). As a result of the Reorganization, The Ex One Company, LLC became ExOne, the common and preferred interest holders of The Ex One Company, LLC became holders of common stock and preferred stock, respectively, of ExOne, and the subsidiaries of The Ex One Company, LLC became the subsidiaries of ExOne. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ExOne, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, ExOne Americas LLC (United States), ExOne GmbH (Germany), ExOne Property GmbH (Germany); ExOne KK (Japan); ExOne Italy S.r.l (Italy); effective in July 2015, ExOne Sweden AB (Sweden); and effective through September 2016, MWT—Gesellschaft für Industrielle Mikrowellentechnik mbH (Germany). Collectively, the consolidated group is referred to as the “Company”.

On September 15, 2016, the Company completed a transaction merging its MWT—Gesellschaft für Industrielle Mikrowellentechnik mbH (Germany) subsidiary with and into its ExOne GmbH (Germany) subsidiary. The purpose of this transaction was to further simplify the Company’s legal structure. There were no significant accounting or tax related impacts associated with the merger of these wholly owned subsidiaries.

The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-203353) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 10, 2015.  The purpose of the Form S-3 was to register, among other securities, debt securities. Certain subsidiaries of the Company (other than any minor subsidiary) are co-registrants with the Company (“Subsidiary Guarantors”), and the registration statement registered guarantees of debt securities by one or more of the Subsidiary Guarantors. The Subsidiary Guarantors are 100% owned by the Company and any guarantees by the Subsidiary Guarantors will be full and unconditional.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary by management to fairly state the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Company. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The results reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. The December 31, 20152016 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in connection with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015,2016, which includes all disclosures required by GAAP.

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make certain judgments, estimates and assumptions regarding uncertainties that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Areas that require significant judgments, estimates and assumptions include accounting for accounts receivable (including the allowance for doubtful accounts); inventories (including the allowance for slow-moving and obsolete inventories); product warranty reserves; contingencies; income taxes (including the valuation allowance on certain deferred tax assets and liabilities for uncertain tax positions); equity-based compensation (including the valuation of certain equity-based compensation awards issued by the Company); and testing for impairment of long-lived assets (including the identification of asset groups by management, estimates of future cash flows of identified asset groups and fair value estimates used in connection with assessing the valuation of identified asset groups). The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Certain amounts relating to restricted cash ($330) and intangible assets – net ($668) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016, have been reclassified from prepaid expenses and other current assets and other noncurrent assets, respectively, to conform to current period presentation. Certain amounts relating to provision (recoveries) for slow-moving, obsolete and lower of cost or market inventories – net ($403) and amortization of debt issuance costs ($3) in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016, have been reclassified from increase in inventories and decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets, respectively, to conform to current period presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-16, “Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory.” This ASU modifies existing guidance and is intended to reduce diversity in practice with respect to the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets. The ASU indicates that the former exception to income tax accounting that requires companies to defer the income tax effects of certain intercompany transactions would apply only to intercompany inventory transactions. That is, the exception no longer applies

6


to intercompany sales and transfers of other assets (e.g., property and equipment or intangible assets). Under the former exception, income tax expense associated with intra-entity profits in an intercompany sale or transfer of assets was eliminated from earnings. Instead, that cost was deferred and recorded on the balance sheet (e.g., as a prepaid asset) until the assets left the consolidated group. Similarly, the entity was prohibited from recognizing deferred tax assets for the increases in tax bases due to the intercompany sale or transfer. A modified retrospective basis of adoption was required for this ASU. As a result, a cumulative-effect adjustment of approximately $408 has been recorded to accumulated deficit on January 1, 2017, in connection with this adoption. This cumulative-effect adjustment relates to the prepaid expense associated with intra-entity transfers of property and equipment included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016.

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2016-17, “Consolidation: Interests Held through Related Parties That Are under Common Control.” This ASU modifies former guidance with respect to how a decision maker that holds an indirect interest in a variable interest entity (“VIE”) through a common control party determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE as part of the analysis of whether the VIE would need to be consolidated. Under the ASU, a decision maker needs to consider only its proportionate indirect interest in the VIE held through a common control party. Previous guidance had required the decision maker to treat the common control party’s interest in the VIE as if the decision maker held the interest itself. The Company does not have significant involvement with entities subject to consolidation considerations impacted by VIE model factors addressed by this ASU. Management has determined that the adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2015-11, “Inventory: Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This ASU requires inventories to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with net realizable value defined as the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Management has determined that the adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”) asASUs issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).FASB. Recently issued ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are currently expected to have no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” This ASU is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The standard provides guidance in a number of situations including, among others, settlement of zero-coupon bonds, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, and distributions received from equity method investees. The ASU also provides guidance for classifying cash receipts and payments that have aspects of more than one class of cash flows. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.” As a result of this ASU, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. As a result of this ASU, lessor accounting is largely unchanged and lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This ASU created a comprehensive framework for all entities in all industries to apply in the determination of when to recognize revenue, and, therefore, supersedes virtually all existing revenue recognition requirements and guidance. This framework is expected to provide a consistent and comparable methodology for revenue recognition. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this principle, an entity should apply the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract(s), (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s), and (v) recognize revenue when, or as, the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date,” which deferred the effective date of this guidance for the Company until January 1, 2019, or January 1, 2018, in the event that the Company no longer qualifies as an EGC.  Early adoption is permitted, but the Company may adopt the changes no earlier than January 1, 2017 (regardless of EGC status). In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts

7


with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations”, which serves to clarify the implementation guidance issued in ASU 2014-09 with respect to principal versus agent considerations in an arrangement. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing”, which serves to clarify the implementation guidance issued in ASU 2014-09 with respect to identifying performance obligations in an arrangement and accounting for licensing arrangements. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, “Revenue Recognition and Derivatives and

6


Hedging: Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting”, which serves to rescind certain previously issued SEC Staff Observer comments upon adoption of ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”, which serves to clarify certain technical aspects and transition guidance associated with ASU 2014-09. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these collective changes on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern: Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” Under GAAP, continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial statements unless and until the entity’s liquidation becomes imminent. Even if an entity’s liquidation is not imminent, there may be conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Because there is no guidance in GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related note disclosures, there is diversity in practice whether, when, and how an entity discloses the relevant conditions and events in its financial statements. As a result, this ASU requires an entity’s management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt is defined as an indication that it is probable that an entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that financial statements are issued. If management has concluded that substantial doubt exists, then the following disclosures should be made in the financial statements: (i) principal conditions or events that raised the substantial doubt, (ii) management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity’s ability to meet its obligations, (iii) management’s plans that alleviated the initial substantial doubt or, if substantial doubt was not alleviated, management’s plans that are intended to at least mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt, and (iv) if the latter in (iii) is disclosed, an explicit statement that there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on December 31, 2016. Subsequent to adoption, this ASU will need to be applied by management at the end of each annual period and interim period therein to determine what, if any, impact there will be on the consolidated financial statements of the Company in a given reporting period.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest – Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” Further, in August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, “Interest – Imputation of Interest: Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements.” This ASU requires an entity to present debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset, with an exception for line of credit arrangements. Amortization of debt issuance costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on December 31, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The ASU will be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented. Management has determined that the adoption of this ASU will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory: Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This ASU requires inventories to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with net realizable value defined as the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The ASU will be applied prospectively in the interim or annual period adopted. Management has determined that the adoption of this ASU will not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.” As a result of this ASU, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee‘s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. As a result of this ASU, lessor accounting is largely unchanged and lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This ASU simplifies certain aspects of accounting for equity-based compensation, including (i) accounting for income taxes, (ii) accounting for pre-vesting forfeitures and (iii) certain classification and disclosure elements. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” This ASU is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The standard provides guidance in a number of situations including, among others, settlement

7


of zero-coupon bonds, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, and distributions received from equity method investees. The ASU also provides guidance for classifying cash receipts and payments that have aspects of more than one class of cash flows. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory.” This ASU modifies existing guidance and is intended to reduce diversity in practice with respect to the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets. The ASU indicates that the current exception to income tax accounting that requires companies to defer the income tax effects of certain intercompany transactions would apply only to intercompany inventory transactions. That is, the exception would no longer apply to intercompany sales and transfers of other assets (e.g., intangible assets). Under the existing exception, income tax expense associated with intra-entity profits in an intercompany sale or transfer of assets is eliminated from earnings. Instead, that cost is deferred and recorded on the balance sheet (e.g., as a prepaid asset) until the assets leave the consolidated group. Similarly, the entity is prohibited from recognizing deferred tax assets for the increases in tax bases due to the intercompany sale or transfer. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-17, “Consolidation: Interests Held through Related Parties That Are under Common Control.” This ASU modifies existing guidance with respect to how a decision maker that holds an indirect interest in a variable interest entity (“VIE”) through a common control party determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE as part of the analysis of whether the VIE would need to be consolidated. Under the ASU, a decision maker would need to consider only its proportionate indirect interest in the VIE held through a common control party. Previous guidance had required the decision maker to treat the common control party’s interest in the VIE as if the decision maker held the interest itself. As a result of the ASU, in certain cases, previous consolidation conclusions may change. This ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2017, with retrospective application to January 1, 2016. The Company does not have significant involvement with entities subject to consolidation considerations impacted by VIE model factors. As a result, management does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

On September 9, 2013, the Company commenced a secondary public offering of 3,054,400 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $62.00 per share, of which 1,106,000 shares of common stock were sold by the Company and 1,948,400 shares of common stock were sold by selling stockholders (including consideration of the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option). Following completion of the offering on September 13, 2013, theThe Company received approximately $64,948 in unrestricted net proceeds of approximately $65,315in connection with this offering (net of underwriting commissions)commissions and offering costs).

On January 8, 2016, the Company announced that it had entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (“ATM”) with FBR Capital Markets & Co. (“FBR”) and MLV & Co. LLC (“MLV”) pursuant to which FBR and MLV agreed to act as distribution agents in the sale of up to $50,000 in the aggregate of ExOne common stock in “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Both FBR and MLV have been identified as related parties to the Company on the basis of significant influence in that a member of the Board of Directors of the Company also serves as a member of the Board of Directors of FBR (which controls MLV). The terms of the ATM were reviewed and approved by a sub-committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (which included each of the members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors except for the identified director who also holds a position on the Board of Directors of FBR). Terms of the ATM require a 3.0% commission on the sale of common stock under the ATM and a reimbursement of certain legal expenses of $25. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company sold 91,940 shares of common stock under the ATM at a weighted average selling price of approximately $9.17 per share resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $843. NetUnrestricted net proceeds to the Company from the sale of common stock under the ATM during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 were approximately $595 (after deducting offering costs of approximately $248, including certain legal, accounting and administrative costs associated with the ATM, of which approximately $50 was paid to FBR or MLV relating to the aforementioned reimbursement of certain legal expenses and commissions on the sale of common stock under the ATM). There werehave been no sales of shares of common stock under the ATM during any periods subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

The Company’s ongoing ability to issue and sell shares of common stock under the ATM is dependent on its ability to use its shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Shelf”), as filed on April 10, 2015. As a result of the Company’s delinquent filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2015, the Company’s offerings and sales under the Shelf

(and therefore the ATM) were suspended. On August 18, 2016, the Company filed a post-effective amendment to its Shelf. As a result of the post-effective amendment filing, the Company is now eligible to re-activate the ATM.

On January 11, 2016, the Company announced that it had entered into a subscription agreement with Rockwell Forest Products, Inc. and S. Kent Rockwell for the registered direct offering and sale of 1,423,877 shares of ExOne common stock at a per share price of $9.13 (a $0.50 premium from the closing price on the close of business on January 8, 2016). The terms of this transaction were reviewed and approved by a sub-committee of independent members of the Board of Directors of the Company (which included each of the members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors). The sub-committee of independent members of the Board of Directors of the Company were advised on the transaction by an independent financial advisor and independent legal counsel. Concurrent with the approval of this sale of common stock under the terms identified, a separate sub-committee of independent members of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the termination of the Company’s revolving credit facility with RHI Investments, LLC.  Following completion of the registered direct offering on January 13, 2016, the Company received gross proceeds of approximately $13,000. NetUnrestricted net proceeds to the Company from the sale of common stock in the registered direct offering were approximately $12,447 (after deducting offering costs of approximately $553).

The Company has incurred a net loss in each of its annual periods since its inception. As shown in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $3,611$6,403 and $12,030$13,194 for the quarter and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, respectively. As noted above, the Company has received cumulative unrestricted net proceeds from the sale of its common stock of approximately $170,353$168,361 to fund its operations. At SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, the Company had approximately $29,813$24,051 in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.

Management believes that the Company’s existing capital resources will be sufficient to support the Company’s operating plan. If management anticipates that the Company’s actual results will differ from its operating plan, management believes it has sufficient capabilities to enact cost savings measures to preserve capital. Further, the Company may seek to raise additional capital to support its growth through additional debt, equity or other alternatives (including asset sales) or a combination thereof.

Foreign currency translation adjustments consist of (i) the effect of translation of functional currency financial statements (denominated in the Euro and Japanese Yen) to the reporting currency of the Company (United States dollar) and (ii) certain long-term intercompany transactions between subsidiaries for which settlement is not planned or anticipated in the foreseeable future.

There were no tax impacts related to income tax rate changes and no amounts were reclassified to earnings for either of the periods presented.

Note 4. Loss Per Share

The Company presents basic and diluted net loss per common share amounts. Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss available to common shareholdersstockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss available to common shareholdersstockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding during the applicable period.

As the Company incurred a net loss during each of the quarters and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and 2015,2016, basic average shares outstanding and diluted average shares outstanding were the same because the effect of potential shares of common stock, including incentive stock options (317,637(351,137  – 20162017 and 204,470182,6372015)2016) and unvested restricted stock issued (112,504(83,670  – 20162017 and 96,00372,3382015)2016), was anti-dilutive.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2016,2017, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $32 associated with an additional involuntary employee termination which required a service commitment through April 2017. This charge was recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss. There are no additional charges expected to be incurred associated with this plan in future periods. At June 30, 2017, the Company has settled all amounts associated with involuntary employee terminations and other exit costs.

Charges associated with asset impairments relate principally to the Company’s plan to exit its non-core specialty machining operations in its Chesterfield, Michigan facility. On April 21, 2017, the Company sold to a third party certain assets associated with these operations including inventories (approximately $79), property and equipment (approximately $2,475) and other contractual rights (approximately $269). Total gross proceeds from the sale of these assets were approximately $2,050. After deducting costs

directly attributable to the sale of these assets (approximately $128), the Company recorded an impairment loss during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, of approximately $859 split between property and equipment ($590) and intangible assets ($269) based on the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of the related assets at March 31, 2017, and a loss on disposal (recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss) during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, of approximately $42. Additionally, the Company recorded an impairment loss during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, of approximately $8 associated with certain property and equipment which was abandoned in connection with the Company’s exit of its remaining laser micromachining inventories, eliminatingNorth Las Vegas, Nevada facility.

Separate from the previouslytransaction described above, on May 9, 2017, the Company sold to a third party certain property and equipment (principally land and building) associated with its North Las Vegas, Nevada facility. Total gross proceeds from the sale of these assets were approximately $1,950. After deducting costs directly attributable to the sale of these assets (approximately $137), the Company recorded reserve.

Note 6. Restructuringa gain on disposal (recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss) during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, of approximately $347.

In April 2016, the Company committed to a plan to consolidate certain of its 3D printing operations in its Auburn, Washington facility into its North Las Vegas, Nevada facility and reorganize certain of its corporate departments as part of its 2016 operating plan. As a result of these actions, during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, the Company incurred a net charge of approximately $170 including, $57 associated with involuntary employee terminations and $113 associated with the disposal of certain property and equipment related to the Auburn, Washington facility which was either sold or abandoned. This net charge was split between cost of sales ($129), research and development ($2) and selling, general and administrative expenses ($39) in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss. In addition to the net charge incurred by the Company in connection with this plan, the Company also has an operating lease commitment for the Auburn, Washington facility with a lease term through December 2018. At the time of closure of this facility, the Company was able to secure a firmly committed sublease arrangement with a third party which fully offsets its remaining contractual operating lease liability. There are no additional charges expected to be incurred associated with this plan in future periods.

Note 7.6. Impairment

During the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, as a result of continued operating losses and cash flow deficiencies, the Company identified a triggering event requiring a test for the recoverability of long-lived assets held for use at the asset group level. Assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets held for use requires significant judgments and estimates by management.

For purposes of testing long-lived assets for recoverability, the Company operates as three separate asset groups: United States, Europe and Japan. In assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets held for use, the Company determined the carrying amount of long-lived assets held for use to be in excess of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows of the related assets. The Company proceeded to determine the fair value of its long-lived assets held for use, principally through use of the market approach. The Company’s use of the market approach included consideration of market transactions for comparable assets. Management concluded that the fair value of long-lived assets held for use exceeded their carrying value and as such no impairment loss was recorded.   

10


A significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset, adverse change in the use or condition of a long-lived asset, adverse change in the business climate or legal or regulatory factors impacting a long-lived asset and continued operating losses and cash flow deficiencies associated with a long-lived asset, among other indicators, could cause a future assessment to be performed which may result in an impairment of long-lived assets held for use, resulting in a material adverse effect on the financial position and results of operations of the Company.

Product Warranty Reserves

The Company subsequently performed an impairment test for goodwill.  For purposes of testing goodwill for impairment, the Company operates as a singular reporting unit. In assessing goodwill for impairment, the Company compared the fair value of its reporting unit to its carrying value.  The Company determined the fair value of its reporting unit through a combination of the market approach and income approach.  The Company’s use of the market approach included considerationSubstantially all of the Company’s market capitalization along with consideration3D printing machines are covered by a standard twelve month warranty. Generally, at the time of sale, a liability is recorded (with an offset to cost of sales) based upon the expected cost of replacement parts and labor to be incurred over the life of the standard warranty. Expected cost is estimated using historical experience for similar products. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of the product warranty reserves based on changes in these factors and records any necessary adjustments if actual experience indicates that adjustments are necessary. Future claims experience could be materially different from prior results because of the introduction of new, more complex products, a change in the Company’s warranty policy in response to industry trends, competition or other factorsexternal forces, or manufacturing changes that could influenceimpact product quality.

Note 8.10. Contingencies and Commitments

Contingencies

On July 1, 2017, the Company (through its ExOne GmbH subsidiary) entered into a Settlement Agreement with Kocel Foundry Limited (also known as Kocel CSR Casting Company, Limited) and Kocel Group (Hong Kong) Limited (collectively, “Kocel”) relating to settlement of the arbitration case (no. 100019-2017) administered by the Swiss Chambers’ Arbitration Institution Notice of Arbitration, as filed by the Company on January 25, 2017. Among other things, the Settlement Agreement provides for a cash payment from ExOne GmbH to Kocel of approximately $811 and a settlement and release of claims related to a sales agreement between the parties for certain 3D printing machines and related equipment (the “Sales Agreement”).

The total value of the Sales Agreement is approximately $3,560 (€3,116) with all associated proceeds having been previously received by ExOne GmbH from Kocel, such amounts reflected in deferred revenue and customer prepayments at June 30, 2017, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Based on the terms of the Settlement Agreement, including the final acceptance by Kocel of the 3D printing machines and related equipment, and relief from further obligation, liability or warranty for both parties (excluding certain intellectual property considerations), the Company has recorded revenue of approximately $2,779 associated with the Sales Agreement (net of the cash payment made by ExOne GmbH to Kocel, such payment made on July 5, 2017) and the related cost of sales, during the quarter ending September 30, 2017.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various litigation, claims, and proceedings which have been or may be instituted or asserted from time to time in the ordinary course of business. ManagementOther than the matter further described above, management does not believe that the outcome of any pending or threatened matters will have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Commitments

In the normal course of its normal operations, ExOne GmbH issues financial guarantees and letters of credit to third parties in connection with certain commercial transactions requiring security. ExOne GmbH maintains a credit facility agreement with a German bank which provides for various short-term financings in the form of overdraft credit, financial guarantees, letters of credit and collateral security for commercial transactions for approximately $1,500.$1,500 (€1,300). In addition, ExOne GmbH may use the credit facility agreement for short-term, fixed-rate loans in minimum increments of approximately $100 (€100) with minimum terms of at least thirty days. The overdraft credit interest rate is fixed at 10.2% while the interest rate associated with commercial transactions requiring security (guarantees,(financial guarantees, letters of credit or collateral security) is fixed at 1.75%. The credit facility agreement has an indefinite term and is subject to cancellation by either party at any time upon repayment of amounts outstanding or expiration of commercial transactions requiring security. There is no commitment fee associated with the credit facility agreement. There are no negative covenants associated with the credit facility agreement. The credit facility agreement has been guaranteed by the Company. At SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and December 31, 2015,2016, there were no outstanding borrowings in the form of overdraft credit or short-term loans under the credit facility agreement.agreement. At SeptemberJune 30, 2017, total outstanding financial guarantees and letters of credit issued by ExOne GmbH under the credit facility agreement were approximately $1,043 (€903) with expiration dates ranging from July 2017 through July 2018. At December 31, 2016, total outstanding guarantees and letters of credit issued by ExOne GmbH under the credit facility agreement were approximately $1,277$400 (€380).

In addition to amounts issued by ExOne GmbH under the credit facility agreement, during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, ExOne GmbH entered into separate agreements with expiration dates ranging from November 2016 through July 2018.the same German bank for additional capacity for financial guarantees and letters of credit associated with certain commercial transactions requiring security. Terms of the separate agreements are substantially similar to those of the existing credit security agreement except that the German bank required cash collateral to be posted by ExOne GmbH in connection with any related issuance. At December 31, 2015,June 30, 2017, total outstanding financial guarantees and letters of credit issued by ExOne GmbH under these separate agreements were approximately $685.$782 (€684) with expiration dates ranging from August 2017 through October 2017.

Note 11. Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $9 and $22, respectively. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $9 and $18, respectively. The Company has completed a discrete period computation of its provision for income taxes for each of the periods presented. Discrete period computation is as a result of

12


jurisdictions with losses before income taxes for which no tax benefit can be recognized and an inability to generate reliable estimates for results in certain jurisdictions as a result of inconsistencies in generating net operating profits (losses) in those jurisdictions.

The effective tax rate for the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 0.1% (provision on a loss) and 0.8% (provision on a loss), respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 0.1% (provision on a loss) and 0.2% (provision on a loss), respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the United States federal statutory rate of 34.0% for each of the periods presented primarily due to net changes in valuation allowances for the periods.

The Company has provided a valuation allowance for its net deferred tax assets as a result of the Company not generating consistent net operating profits in jurisdictions in which it operates. As such, any benefit from deferred taxes in any of the periods presented has been fully offset by changes in the valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets. The Company continues to assess its future taxable income by jurisdiction based on recent historical operating results, the expected timing of reversal of temporary differences, various tax planning strategies that the Company may be able to enact in future periods, the impact of potential operating changes on the business and forecast results from operations in future periods based on available information at the end of each reporting period. To the extent that the Company is able to reach the conclusion that its net deferred tax assets are realizable based on any combination of the above factors in a single, or in multiple, taxing jurisdictions, a reversal of the related portion of the Company’s existing valuation allowances may occur.

The Company has a liability for uncertain tax positions related to certain capitalized expenses and intercompany transactions. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the liability for uncertain tax positions was approximately $818 and $754, respectively, and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had an additional liability for uncertain tax positions related to its ExOne GmbH (Germany) subsidiary of approximately $279 and $232, respectively, which were fully offset against net operating loss carryforwards. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had an additional liability for uncertain tax positions related to its ExOne KK (Japan) subsidiary of approximately $515 and $416, respectively, which were fully offset against net operating loss carryforwards.

At June 30, 2017, the Company’s ExOne GmbH (2010-2013) and ExOne Property GmbH (2013) subsidiaries were under examination by local taxing authorities. The Company is unable to reasonably predict an outcome related to this examination. In July 2017, local taxing authorities in Japan completed their examination of the Company’s ExOne KK (2014-2016) subsidiary, resulting in an income tax obligation of approximately $5, which has been reflected in the provision for income taxes in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations during the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Note 9.12. Equity-Based Compensation

On January 24, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). In connection with the adoption of the Plan, 500,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan, with automatic increases in such reserve available each year annually on January 1 from 2014 through 2023 equal to the lesser of (i) 3.0% of the total outstanding shares of common stock as of December 31 of the immediately preceding year or, (ii) a number of shares of common stock determined by the Board of Directors, provided that the maximum number of shares authorized under the Plan will not exceed 1,992,241 shares, subject to certain adjustments.

11Incentive stock options (“ISOs”) and restricted stock issued by the Company are generally subject to service conditions resulting in annual vesting on the anniversary of the date of grant over a period typically ranging between one and three years. Certain ISOs and stock bonus awards issued by the Company vest immediately upon issuance. ISOs issued by the Company have a contractual life which expires ten years from the date of grant subject to continued service to the Company by the participant.

The benefit for income taxes from equity-based compensation for each of the periods presented has been determined to be $0 based on valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, total future compensation expense related to unvested awards yet to be recognized by the Company was approximately $1,000$609 for incentive stock options (“ISOs”)ISOs and $1,110$651 for restricted stock. Total future compensation expense related to unvested awards yet to be recognized by the Company is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of approximately 2.01.4 years.

On August 12, 2016,13


During the Company issued 39,000 ISOs to certain members of management. Each ofsix months ended June 30, 2017, the ISOs issued vests in one-third increments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. Separately, on August 19, 2016, the Company issued 100,000 ISOs to the newly appointed CEO of the Company. For the August 19, 2016, issuance, one-third of the ISOs issued vested immediately. The remaining two-thirds vests on the first and second anniversaries of the date of grant. The fair value of ISOs issuedgranted was estimated on the respective datesdate of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Expected volatilityDuring the six months ended June 30, 2016, there were no ISOs issued by the Company.

Volatility has been estimated based on historical volatilities of certain peer group companies over the expected term of the awards, due to a lack of historical stock prices for a period at least equal to the expected term of issued awards. The average risk-free rate is based on a weighted average yield curve of risk-free interest rates consistent with the expected term of the awards. Expected dividend yield is based on historical dividend data as well as future expectations. Expected term has been calculated using the simplified method as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise experience upon which to base an estimate.

Note 10. Income Taxes

The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the quarters ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was $25 and ($41), respectively. The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and 2016, and 2015 was $43 and ($200), respectively. The Company has completedhad a discrete period computation of its benefit for income taxes for each of the periods presented. Discrete period computation is as a result of (i) jurisdictions with losses before income taxes for which no tax benefit can be recognized and (ii) an inability to generate reliable estimates for results in certain jurisdictions as a result of inconsistencies in generating net operating profits (losses) in those jurisdictions.

The effective tax rate for the quarters ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was 0.7% (provision on a loss) and 0.4% (benefit on a loss), respectively. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was 0.4% (provision on a loss) and 0.8% (benefit on a loss), respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the United States federal statutory rate of 34.0% for each of the periods presented primarily due to net changes in valuation allowances for the periods.

The Company has provided a valuation allowance for its net deferred tax assets as a result of the Company not generating consistent net operating profits in jurisdictions in which it operates. As such, any benefit from deferred taxes in either quarterly period has been fully offset by changes in the valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets. The Company continues to assess its future taxable income by jurisdiction based on (i) recent historical operating results, (ii) the expected timing of reversal of temporary differences, (iii) various tax planning strategies that the Company may be able to enact in future periods, (iv) the impact of potential operating changes on the business and (v) forecast results from operations in future periods based on available information at the end of each reporting period. To the extent that the Company is able to reach the conclusion that deferred tax assets are realizable based on any combination of the above factors, a reversal of existing valuation allowances may occur.

The Company has a liability for uncertain tax positions related to certain capitalized expenses and intercompany transactions. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the liability for uncertain tax positions was approximately $803 and $781, respectively, and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had an additional liability for uncertain tax positions related to its ExOne GmbH (Germany) subsidiaryfair value of approximately $234$299 and $195, respectively, which were fully offset against net operating loss carryforwards. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had an additional liability for uncertain tax positions related to its ExOne KK (Japan) subsidiary of approximately $471 and $285, respectively, which were fully offset against net operating loss carryforwards. At September 30, 2016, the Company’s ExOne GmbH (2010-2013) and ExOne Property GmbH (2013) subsidiaries were under examination by tax authorities.$304, respectively.

Note 11.13. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk.

14


The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowestlowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1

 

Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical investments that the Company has the ability to access.

 

 

 

Level 2

 

Inputs include:

 

 

 

 

 

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

 

 

 

 

 

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

 

 

 

 

 

Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

 

 

 

 

 

Inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

 

 

Level 3

 

Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company is required to disclose its estimate of the fair value of material financial instruments, including those recorded as assets or liabilities in its consolidated financial statements, in accordance with GAAP.

At September 30, 2016 and DecemberDuring the quarter ended March 31, 2015,2017, the Company had no financial instruments (assets or liabilities) measuredentered into two separate foreign exchange forward contracts with a German bank in an effort to hedge the variability of certain foreign exchange risks between the Euro (the functional currency of the Company’s ExOne GmbH subsidiary) and British Pound Sterling (the currency basis for cash flows resulting from a commercial sales contract with a customer). The first of the two foreign exchange forward contracts was both entered into and settled (in connection with cash received from the customer) during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, resulting in a realized gain on settlement of approximately $16 (€15). The second of the two foreign exchange forward contracts remained outstanding at June 30, 2017. For both the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2017, the second of the two foreign exchange forward contracts generated an unrealized gain of approximately $5 (€4). Neither of the contracts has been designated as a hedging instrument and accordingly, realized and unrealized gains (losses) for all periods have been recorded to other expense (income) – net in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss. The Company has classified both contracts as Level 2 fair value on a recurring basis.measurements.

Overview

Our Business

We are a global provider of 3D printing machines and 3D printed and other products, materials and services to industrial customers. Our business primarily consists of manufacturing and selling 3D printing machines and printing products to specification for our customers using our installed base of 3D printing machines. Our machines serve direct and indirect applications.  Direct printing produces a component; indirect printing makes a tool to produce a component. We offer pre-production collaboration and print products for customers through our network of PSCs.PSCs and EACs. We also supply the associated materials, including consumables and replacement parts, and other services, including training and technical support that is necessary for purchasers of our 3D printing machines to print products. We believe that our ability to print in a variety of industrial materials, as well as our industry-leading printing capacityvolumetric output (as measured by build box size and printheadprinting speed) uniquely position us to serve the needs of industrial customers.

Recent Developments

Our results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, benefited from an increase in sales of 3D printing machines and as a result, our gross profit increased due to contribution margin realized in connection with those sales. Overall, our cost of sales and operating expenses have stabilized following the transition and expansion of certain of our global facilities and the deployment of our new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system (both of which were finalized during 2015). Our liquidity has continued to improve following certain financing transactions (our registered direct offering to a related party and ATM offerings of our common stock) executed during the quarter ended March 31, 2016, and improvements in our cash flows from operations and a reduction in our capital expenditures.

17


In April 2016,On January 26, 2017, we committed to a plan to consolidate certain of our 3D printing operations in our Auburn, Washington facility intofrom our North Las Vegas, Nevada facility into our Troy, Michigan and reorganize certainHouston, Texas facilities and exit our non-core specialty machining operations in our Chesterfield, Michigan facility. These actions were taken as a result of the accelerating adoption rate of our corporate departments as partsand printing technology in North America which has resulted in a refocus of our 2016 operating plan. operational strategy.

As a result of these actions, during the quarter ended June 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, we incurred a net chargerecorded charges of approximately $170$984, including $57approximately $110 associated with involuntary employee terminations, approximately $7 associated with other exit costs and approximately $867 associated with asset impairments. Charges associated with involuntary employee terminations and $113other exit

costs were recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Charges associated with the disposal of certain property and equipment related to our Auburn, Washington facility which was either sold or abandoned. This net charge wasasset impairments were split between cost of sales ($129)598), research and development ($2)as a component of depreciation expense, and selling, general and administrative expenses ($39)269), as a component of amortization expense, in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss. In addition toDuring the netquarter ended June 30, 2017, we recorded a charge incurred by us in connection with this plan, we also have an operating lease commitment for the Auburn, Washington facility with a lease term through December 2018. At the time of closure of this facility, we were able to secure a firmly committed sublease arrangement with a third party which fully offsets our remaining contractual operating lease liability. There are no additional charges expected to be incurredapproximately $32 associated with this planan additional involuntary employee termination which required a service commitment through April 2017. This charge was recorded to cost of sales in future periods. Wethe accompanying condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss. At June 30, 2017, we have settled all amounts associated with involuntary employee terminations. terminations and other exit costs.

Charges associated with asset impairments relate principally to our plan to exit our non-core specialty machining operations in our Chesterfield, Michigan facility. On April 21, 2017, we sold to a third party certain assets associated with these operations including inventories (approximately $79), property and equipment (approximately $2,475) and other contractual rights (approximately $269). Total gross proceeds from the sale of these assets were approximately $2,050. After deducting costs directly attributable to the sale of these assets (approximately $128), we recorded an impairment loss during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, of approximately $859 split between property and equipment ($590) and intangible assets ($269) based on the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of the related assets at March 31, 2017, and a loss on disposal (recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss) during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, of approximately $42. Additionally, we recorded an impairment loss during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, of approximately $8 associated with certain property and equipment which was abandoned in connection with our plan to exit our North Las Vegas, Nevada facility.

Separate from the transaction described above, on May 9, 2017, we sold to a third party certain property and equipment (principally land and building) associated with our North Las Vegas, Nevada facility. Total gross proceeds from the sale of these assets were approximately $1,950. After deducting costs directly attributable to the sale of these assets (approximately $137), we recorded a gain on disposal (recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss) during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, of approximately $347.

The consolidation of our 3D printing operation in our Auburn, Washington facility intooperations from our North Las Vegas, Nevada facility into our Troy, Michigan and Houston, Texas facilities is not expected to have a significant impact on our revenues in future periods. We expect annualized cost savings related to the plan (including the closure of the Auburn, Washington facility and reorganization of corporate departments)this consolidation of approximately $1,000,$600, with approximately $800$570 in the form of cash cost savings (principally employee and facility maintenance costs) and approximately $30 in the form of reduced depreciation expense. All cost savings associated with this consolidation are expected to benefit cost of sales. We expect to invest these cost savings into technological or process advancements that support either long-term cost benefits or revenue growth.

We expect annualized reductions in revenue related to our exit of our non-core specialty machining operations in our Chesterfield, Michigan facility of approximately $1,400. Revenues associated with our non-core specialty machining operations in our Chesterfield, Michigan facility were approximately $39 and $346 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, and approximately $315 and $648 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. We expect annualized cost savings related to this exit of approximately $500, with approximately $200 in the form of cash cost savings (principally employee-related and other operating costs), approximately $200 in the form of reduced depreciation expense.

Note the following additional highlights for the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

ATM offerings. In January 2016, we announced our ATM with FBRexpense and MLV pursuant to which FBR and MLV will act as distribution agents in the sale of up to $50,000 in the aggregate of ExOne common stock in “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we sold 91,940 shares of common stock under the ATM at a weighted average selling price of approximately $9.17 per share resulting in gross proceeds to us of approximately $843. Net proceeds to us from the sale of common stock under the ATM during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 were approximately $595 (after deducting offering costs of approximately $248, including certain legal, accounting and administrative costs associated with the ATM).

Registered direct offering to a related party. In January 2016, we announced our entry into a subscription agreement with Rockwell Forest Products, Inc. and S. Kent Rockwell for the registered direct offering and sale of 1,423,877 shares of ExOne common stock at a per share price of $9.13 (a $0.50 premium from the closing price on the close of business on January 8, 2016). Following completion of the registered direct offering on January 13, 2016, we received gross proceeds of approximately $13,000.  Net proceeds to us from the sale of common stock in the registered direct offering were approximately $12,447 (after deducting offering costs of approximately $553).

Awarded $1.5 million contract with United States Missile Defense Agency. In July 2016, we announced our award of a three-year contract valued at $1.5 million with the United States Missile Defense Agency for the application of 3D printing in the development of silicon carbide components.

Announced Introduction of 3D Printing With Industry Standard Metal and Ceramic Powders of Less Than 10 Microns. In October 2016, we announced certain advancements to our Innovent direct 3D printing machine which enables the printing of industry standard metal and ceramic powders of less than 10 microns. This results in a higher density and significant improvements in surface finish quality for printed products. As a result of these advancements, we were also able to announce our addition of stainless steel 316L to our material portfolio, representing our second single metal alloy (Inconel alloy 625 our first) for industrial 3D printing applications. In addition to offering fine powder capability on future Innovent units, we have also developed an upgrade package for existing Innovent customers for conversion. We plan to further apply this technology to our M-Flex 3D printing machine system as well as other large format printing systems as part of our future machine development strategy.

Outlook

Our 2016 priorities include the following:

Accelerate the adoption rate of binder jetting. In 2016, we are continuing our growth at an accelerated rate as we further proliferate use of binder jetting in additive manufacturing. We continue to introduce new technologies, including advancements to our machine platforms (Exerial and Innovent). We improved applications for both direct printing and indirect printing (in the form of new material sets and/or printing processes or refinements). We also significantly expanded our global installed base of machines by delivering to our customers a record number of our 3D printing machines.

Evaluation of our business model. We are focusing our efforts on optimizing our business model, including maximizing our cost absorption and our gross profit. We have consolidated certain PSC operations in April 2016 and we will continue to consider additional strategic decisions resulting in further consolidation, elimination or other modification to our existing machine manufacturing, PSC and other operations.

Focus on profitability andworking capital. We are focused on scaling and evolving our business toward profitable growth. This includes a mix of growing our revenues, increasing our facility utilization and effectively managing our operating expenses.  We expect to build on our existing liquidity through enhanced working capital management, principally$100 in the form of efficiently managing cash flows from customers and improving our net cash flows from inventories.

During the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, as a result of continued operating losses and cash flow deficiencies, we identified a triggering event requiring a test for the recoverability of long-lived assets held for use at the asset group level. Assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets held for use requires significant judgments and estimates by management.

For purposes of testing long-lived assets for recoverability, we operate as three separate asset groups: United States, Europe and Japan. In assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets held for use, we determined the carrying amount of long-lived assets held for use to be in excess of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows of the related assets. We proceeded to determine the fair value of our long-lived assets held for use, principally through use of the market approach. Our use of the market approach included consideration of market transactions for comparable assets. Management concluded that the fair value of long-lived assets held for use exceeded their carrying value and as such no impairment loss was recorded.

A significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset, adverse change in the use or condition of a long-lived asset, adverse change in the business climate or legal or regulatory factors impacting a long-lived asset and continued operating losses and cash flow deficiencies associated with a long-lived asset, among other indicators, could cause a future assessment to be performed which may result in an impairment of long-lived assets held for use, resulting in a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

DuringOutlook

Our 2017 priorities include the quarter ended September 30, 2015, as a resultfollowing:

Continue to accelerate the adoption rate of binder jet technologies. We plan to grow our market leading position with respect to 3D printing solutions for customers and continue advancing our innovations in direct and indirect printing, principally through an expansion of our fine powder direct printing capabilities and development activities associated with larger format direct and indirect 3D printing machines.

Evaluation of our business model. We continue to focus our efforts on optimizing our business model, including maximizing our facility utilization and our gross profit. We have consolidated certain of our operations to achieve efficiencies and we will continue to consider additional strategic decisions resulting in further consolidation, elimination or other modification to our existing machine manufacturing, PSC and other operations, including, but not limited to, converting certain of our PSCs into EACs. We are reviewing our product lines to better manage our product marketing and delivery to our customers to accelerate the significant declineadoption rate of our technologies.

Strengthening our commercial team and reprioritizing our focus. We have added new talent to our commercial leadership team and have added new tools and processes to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our selling efforts. As our global installed base of 3D printing machines continues to grow, we continue to invest in our customer-centric approach to managing our operations (including talent addition and the process of converting certain of our PSCs into EACs). Our goal is to collaborate with our customers and remain the market capitalizationleader and continued operating lossessupplier of choice for binder jet technologies and cash flow deficiencies, we identified a triggering event requiring both (i) a testproducts for the recoverabilityindustrial applications.

Backlog

At June 30, 2017, our backlog was approximately $26,300 of long-lived assets held for use at the asset group level and (ii) a test for impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit level.  Assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets held for use and goodwill requires significant judgments and estimates by management.

In assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets held for use, we determined the carrying amount of long-lived assets held for usewhich approximately $22,900 is expected to be in excess of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows of the related assets.  We proceeded determine the fair value of our long-lived assets held for use, principally through use of the market approach.  Our use of the market approach included consideration of market transactions for comparable assets.  Management concluded that the fair value of long-lived assets held for use exceeded their carrying value and as such no impairment loss was recorded.

We subsequently performed an impairment test for goodwill.  For purposes of testing goodwill for impairment, we operate as a singular reporting unit. In assessing goodwill for impairment, we compared the fair value of our reporting unit to its carrying value.  We determined the fair value of our reporting unit through a combination of the market approach and income approach.  Our use of the market approach included consideration of our market capitalization along with consideration of other factors that could influence the use of market capitalization as a fair value estimate, including premiums or discounts to be applied based on both market and entity-specific data.  Our use of the income approach included consideration of present value techniques, principally the use of a discounted cash flow model.  In performing the impairment test for goodwill, we determined the carrying amount of goodwill to be in excess of the implied fair value of goodwill.  As a result, we recognized an impairment loss of approximately $4,419 associated with goodwillfulfilled during the quarter ended September 30, 2015.next twelve months. At December 31, 2016, our backlog was approximately $19,700.

Results of Operations

Net Loss

Net loss for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, was $3,611,$6,403, or $0.23$0.40 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $10,077$2,942 or $0.70$0.18 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015.2016. Net loss for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, was $12,030,$13,194, or $0.76$0.82 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $24,646$8,419 or $1.71$0.53 per basic and diluted share, for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015.

2016. The decreaseincrease in our net loss for both periods was principally due to an increase in our revenues and gross profit principally based on an increase in volume and favorable mix of revenues from 3D printing machines (and an increase in revenues from 3D printed and other products, materials and services for the nine month period), coupled with the elimination of certain production inefficiencies experienced during 2015 as a result of our global facilities transition and expansion activities and ERP system deployment (effective January 1, 2015). Net operating expenses increased for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2015, versus a net decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015 (see further discussion below). Also, during the quarter ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $4,419 as a result of a significant decline in our market capitalization during the period, combinedgross profit along with continued operating lossesincreases in research and cash flow deficiencies which negatively affected our results of operations.development and selling, general and administrative expenses (all changes further described below).

Revenue for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, was $12,988$10,799 compared with revenue of $8,864$11,755 for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015, an increase2016, a decrease of $4,124,$956, or 46.5%8.1%. The increase in revenue was principally as a result of an increase in revenues from 3D printing machines resulted from both an increase in volume of 3D printing machines sold (eleven 3D printing machines sold during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, as compared to five 3D printing machines sold during the quarter ended September 30, 2015) and a favorable mix of 3D printing machines sold (as we sold six indirect printers during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, as compared to one indirect printer during the quarter ended September 30, 2015, as indirect printers generally bear a higher average selling price than direct printers).

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, was $33,157 compared with revenue of $24,155 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $9,002, or 37.3%. The increasedecrease in revenue was as a result of increasesdecreases in revenue attributable to both of our product lines (3D printing machines and 3D printed and other products, materials and services). The increasedecrease in revenues from 3D printing machines resulted from both an increase ina lower volume of 3D printing machinesunits sold (21(eight 3D printing machines sold during the nine monthsquarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, as compared to 14nine 3D printing machines sold during the nine monthsquarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015) and a favorable mix of 3D printing machines sold (as we sold eleven indirect printers during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to one indirect printer during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, indirect printers generally bearing a higher average selling price than direct printers)2016). The increasedecrease in revenues from 3D printed and other products, materials and services principally resulted from an overall continued increase in customer acceptance and demand for our additive manufacturing technologies, including an increase in materials and service revenues associated with an increased global installed basethe absence of our 3D printing machines, the sale of the remaining inventories associated with our former laser micromachining production line (approximately $475) during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, a decrease in product sales associated with our former specialty machining operation located in our Chesterfield, Michigan facility (approximately $276) following the sale of certain assets associated with this operation in April 2017, and a reduction in sales of consumable materials

19


principally due to lower realized pricing. These decreases were offset by a net increase in sales from our PSC and EAC direct and indirect printing operations as a result of increased customer acceptance of our binder jet technologies.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was $21,668 compared with revenue of $20,169 for the six months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $1,499, or 7.4%. The increase in revenue was primarily a result of an increase in sales from 3D printing machines offset by a slight decrease in revenues derived from certain contractual research3D printed and development activities.other products, materials and services. The increase in revenues from 3D printing machines resulted primarily from an increase in volume of 3D printing machines sold (thirteen 3D printing machines sold during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to ten 3D printing machines sold during the six months ended June 30, 2016) which was offset by slightly lower realized pricing from sales of 3D printing machines. An offsetting decrease in revenues from 3D printed and other products, materials and services resulted from the absence of the aforementioned sale of laser micromachining inventories and a decrease in product sales associated with our former specialty machining operation (approximately $302), both of which were net of an increase in sales from our PSC and EAC direct and indirect printing operations as a result of increased customer acceptance of our binder jet technologies.

* For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, one M-Print unit and one Innovent unit were sold to related parties. There were no units sold to related parties during the quarter or nine months ended September 30, 2016, or the quarter ended September 30, 2015. Refer to Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Cost of sales for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, was $9,428$8,773 compared with cost of sales of $7,695$8,249 for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015,2016, an increase of $1,733,$524, or 22.5%6.4%. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to a net charge associated with slow-moving, obsolete and lower of cost or market inventories of approximately $1,378 during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared to a net recovery of approximately $381 during the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The net charge recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, is primarily attributable to certain raw material and component inventories (principally machine frames and other fabricated components) of approximately $1,460 associated with our ExerialTM 3D printing machine platform based on decisions made by us during the period related to certain design changes and improvements to the underlying platform (rendering certain elements of the previous design obsolete). The net recovery recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, principally relates to the aforementioned sale of certain inventories associated with our former laser micromachining product line (approximately $507). This increase was offset by decreases in variable cost of sales associated with lower revenues between the periods and net gains on disposal of property and equipment recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 (approximately $306), compared to net losses on disposal of property and equipment recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 (approximately $198). Net gains on disposal of property and equipment recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, primarily relate to our sale of certain property and equipment (principally land and building) associated with our consolidation and exit of our North Las Vegas, Nevada PSC. Net losses on disposal of property and equipment recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, primarily relate to our sale and abandonment of certain property and equipment associated with our consolidation and exit of our Auburn, Washington PSC.

Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, was $2,026 compared with gross profit of $3,506 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. Gross profit percentage was 18.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared with 29.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The decrease in gross profit was the result of the decrease in revenues and increase in cost of sales as further cited above.

Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was $18,039 compared with cost of sales of $14,787 for the six months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $3,252, or 22.0%. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to a net charge associated with slow-moving, obsolete and lower of cost or market inventories of approximately $1,835 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 (further discussed above), compared to a net recovery of approximately $403 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 (further discussed above), and increases in our variable cost of sales associated with our increased revenues, resultingrevenues. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2017, we incurred costs of approximately $747 (approximately $142 in an improved gross profit netemployee termination costs, $7 in other exit costs and $598 in asset impairments) associated with our consolidation of our fixed cost base. Offsetting this increase was3D printing operations from our facility in North Las Vegas, Nevada into our Troy, Michigan and Houston, Texas facilities and our plan to exit our non-core specialty machining operations in Chesterfield, Michigan. These increases were offset by the benefitaforementioned net gain (compared to net losses) associated with the disposal of a reduction in certain production inefficiencies experienced during 2015 as a result ofproperty and equipment related to certain facility consolidations and exits between the transition and expansion of our facilities in Germany and the United States, and the deployment of our ERP system (effective January 1, 2015) which resulted in a reduced fixed cost base for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.periods.

Gross profit for the quartersix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, was $3,560$3,629 compared with gross profit of $1,169$5,382 for the quartersix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015.2016. Gross profit percentage was 27.4%16.7% for the quartersix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, compared with 13.2%26.7% for the quartersix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015.2016. The increasedecrease in gross profit was the result of the increase in revenues offset by the increase in cost of sales as further cited above.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, was $24,215 compared with cost of sales of $21,881 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of $2,334, or 10.7%. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to increases in our variable cost of sales associated with our increased revenues, resulting in an improved gross profit net of our fixed cost base. Offsetting this increase was the benefit of the reversal of our reserve for obsolete and slow-moving inventories related to our sale of the remaining inventories associated with our former laser micromachining product line (approximately $507) during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, and a reduction in certain production inefficiencies experienced during 2015 as a result of the transition and expansion of our facilities in Germany and the United States, and the deployment of our ERP system (effective January 1, 2015) which resulted in a reduced fixed cost base for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, was $8,942 compared with gross profit of $2,274 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Gross profit percentage was 27.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared with 9.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in gross profit was the result of the increase in revenues offset by the increase in cost of sales as further cited above.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, were $1,898$2,349 compared with research and development expenses of $1,825$1,946 for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015,2016, an increase of $73,$403, or 4.0%20.7%. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to an increase in employee-related costs (principally salaries and benefits) and consulting and professional fees associated with certain machine development and other organizational development activities.

Research and development expenses for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, were $5,737$4,348 compared with research and development expenses of $5,218$3,839 for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015,2016, an increase of $519,$509, or 9.9%13.3%.

The increase in research and development expenses for both periods was primarily due to an increase in employee-related costs (salaries and related benefits), material costs and consulting and professional fees associated with materials qualification andcertain machine development activities, principally materials usage for both our direct and indirect printing applications.other organizational development activities.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, were $5,234$6,013 compared with selling, general and administrative expenses of $5,018$4,663 for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015,2016, an increase of $216,$1,350, or 4.3%29.0%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was principally due to an increase in equity-based compensation (mostly due to awards granted to our newly appointed CEO on August 19, 2016, a portionconsulting and professional fees (principally executive consulting, legal and other administrative arrangements) of which vested immediately upon issuance),approximately $619, an increase in trade show related expenses and a netour provision for bad debts from customers (a net provision of approximately $15$9 during the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016 as2017, compared to net recoveries of bad debts of approximately $180$276 during the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015. These increases were offset by a reduction2016), an increase in agency commissionsemployee-related costs (salaries and related benefits) associated with sales of 3D printing machines to customers.our investment in our commercial leadership team, and an increase in information technology-related costs targeted at operational improvements within the organization.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, were $15,222$12,276 compared with selling, general and administrative expenses of $17,479$9,988 for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015, a decrease2016, an increase of $2,257,$2,288, or 12.9%22.9%. The decreaseincrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was principally due to net recoveries of bad debts of approximately $256 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to a net provision for bad debts of approximately $144 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, a reductionan increase in consulting and professional fees (including costs associated with(principally executive consulting, legal and other administrative arrangements) of approximately $495, an increase in our provision for bad debts from customers (a net provision of approximately $132 during the deploymentsix months ended June 30, 2017, compared to net recoveries of our ERP systemapproximately $271 during 2015) and a reduction in costs associated with trade show activities (mostly due to the absencesix months ended June 30, 2016), an impairment of costs associated with the GIFA International Foundry Trade Fair in June 2015), allintangible assets of which was offset by the absence of the reversal of the remaining contingent consideration associated with our acquisition of Machin-a-Mationapproximately $269 during the quarter ended June 30, 2015.March 31, 2017, in connection with our plan to exit our non-core specialty machining operations at our Chesterfield, Michigan facility, an increase in employee-related costs (salaries, equity-based compensation and related benefits) associated with our investment in our commercial leadership team, and an increase in selling costs (promotional expenses, trade show activities and sales commissions on 3D printing machine sales).

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes

The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the quarters ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and 2016, was $9 and 2015, was $25 and ($41), respectively. The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, was $43 and ($200),$22, respectively. The effective tax rate for the quarters ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and 2016, and 2015, was 0.7%0.1% (provision on a loss) and 0.4% (benefit0.8% (provision on a loss), respectively. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, was $9 and $18, respectively. The effective tax rate for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and 2016, and 2015, was 0.4%0.1% (provision on a loss) and 0.8% (benefit0.2% (provision on a loss), respectively. For each of

21


the quarters and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and 2015,2016, the effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 34.0% primarily due to net changes in valuation allowances for the period.

We have provided a valuation allowance for our net deferred tax assets as a result of our inability to generate consistent net operating profits in jurisdictions in which we operate. As such, any benefit from deferred taxes in either quarterly periodany of the periods presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements has been fully offset by changes in the valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets. We continue to assess our future taxable income by jurisdiction based on (i) our recent historical operating results, (ii) the expected timing of reversal of temporary differences, (iii) various tax planning strategies that we may be able to enact in future periods, (iv) the impact of potential operating changes on our business and (v) our forecast results from operations in future periods based on available information at the end of each reporting period. To the extent that we are able to reach the conclusion that net deferred tax assets are realizable based on any combination of the above factors in a single, or multiple, taxing jurisdictions, a reversal of the related portion of our existing valuation allowances may occur.

Impact of Inflation

Our results of operations and financial condition are presented based on historical cost. While it is difficult to accurately measure the impact of inflation due to the imprecise nature of the estimates required, we believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our results of operations and financial condition are not significant.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We have incurred a net loss in each of our annual periods since our inception. In addition, we incurred a net loss of approximately $3,611$6,403 and $12,030$13,194 for the quarter and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, respectively. In connection with the completion of our initial public offering and subsequent secondary offerings (including our ATM), we have received cumulative unrestricted net proceeds from the sale of our common stock of approximately $170,353$168,361 to fund our operations. At SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, we had approximately $29,813$24,051 in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.  

We believe that our existing capital resources will be sufficient to support our operating plan. If we anticipate that our actual results will differ from our operating plan, we believe we have sufficient capabilities to enact cost savings measures to preserve capital. Further, we may seek to raise additional capital to support our growth through additional debt, equity or other alternatives (including asset sales) or a combination thereof.

Revolving Credit Facility with a Related Party

On October 23, 2015, ExOne and its ExOne Americas LLC and ExOne GmbH subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into the Credit Agreement with RHI, a related party, on a $15,000 revolving credit facility to (i) assist us in our efforts to finance customer acquisition of our 3D printing machines and 3D printed and other products and services and (ii) provide additional funding for working capital and general corporate purposes.  RHI was determined to be a related party based on common control by the Chairman of our Board of Directors (also our CEO through August 19, 2016). Prior to execution, the Credit Agreement was subject to review and approval by a sub-committee of independent members of our Board of Directors (which included each of the members of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors). We incurred approximately $215 in debt issuance costs associated with the Credit Agreement.

22


On January 10, 2016, we delivered notice to RHI of our intent to terminate the Credit Agreement in connection with the closing of a registered direct offering of common stock to an entity under common control by the Chairman of our Board of Directors (also our CEO through August 19, 2016) (see further discussion below). There were no borrowings under the Credit Agreement from January 1, 2016 through the effective date of its termination, January 13, 2016.  In connection with the termination, we settled the remaining accrued interest under the Credit Agreement of approximately $5 relating to the commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility (100 basis points, or 1.0% on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility). Inaddition, during the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we recorded approximately $204 to interest expense related to the accelerated amortization of debt issuance costs. Upon termination of the Credit Agreement, all liens and guaranties in respect thereof were released.

ATM Offerings

On January 8, 2016, we announced that we had entered into an ATM with FBR and MLV pursuant to which FBR and MLV agreed to act as distribution agents in the sale of up to $50,000 in the aggregate of ExOne common stock in “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Both FBR and MLV have been identified as related parties to us on the basis of significant influence in that a member of our Board of Directors also serves as a member of the Board of Directors of FBR (which controls MLV).  The terms of the ATM were reviewed and approved by a sub-committee of our Board of Directors (which included each of the members of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors except for the identified director who also holds a position on the Board of Directors of FBR).  Terms of the ATM require a 3.0% commission on the sale of common stock under the ATM and a reimbursement of certain legal expenses of $25.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we sold 91,940 shares of common stock under the ATM at a weighted average selling price of approximately $9.17 per share resulting in gross proceeds to us of approximately $843.  Net proceeds to us from the sale of common stock under the ATM during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 were approximately $595 (after deducting offering costs of approximately $248, including certain legal, accounting and administrative costs associated with the ATM, of which approximately $50 was paid to FBR or MLV relating to the aforementioned reimbursement of certain legal expenses and commissions on the sale of common stock under the ATM). There were no sales of shares of common stock under the ATM during any periods subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Our ongoing ability to issue and sell common stock under the ATM is dependent on our ability to use our Shelf, as filed on April 10, 2015. As a result of our delinquent filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2015, our offerings and sales under the Shelf (and therefore the ATM) were suspended. On August 18, 2016, we filed a post-effective amendment to our Shelf. As a result of the post-effective amendment filing, we are now eligible to re-activate the ATM.

Registered Direct Offering to a Related Party

On January 11, 2016, we announced that we had entered into a subscription agreement with Rockwell Forest Products, Inc. and S. Kent Rockwell for the registered direct offering and sale of 1,423,877 shares of ExOne common stock at a per share price of $9.13 (a $0.50 premium from the closing price on the close of business on January 8, 2016).  The terms of this transaction were reviewed and approved by a sub-committee of independent members of our Board of Directors (which included each of the members of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors). The sub-committee of independent members of our Board of Directors were advised on the transaction by an independent financial advisor and independent legal counsel. Concurrent with the approval of this sale of common stock under the terms identified, the independent members of our Board of Directors also approved the termination of our revolving credit facility with RHI (see further discussion above).  Following completion of the registered direct offering on January 13, 2016, we received gross proceeds of approximately $13,000.  Net proceeds to us from the sale of common stock in the registered direct offering were approximately $12,447 (after deducting offering costs of approximately $553).

The decreasechange of $9,099, or 82.7%,$6,757 was mostly attributeddue to an increase in cash flows associated with a reduction in our net loss (further described above) and from net changes in assets and liabilities. Increases attributable to net changes in assets and liabilities were principally impacted by a reduction in net cash outflows associatedcombined with inventories based on our operating plans and increase in net cash inflows associated with prepaid expenses and other assets, principally due to a reduction in deposit payments to vendors and the collection of refundable income taxes. These increases were offset by a decrease in net cash inflows associatedfrom changes in assets and liabilities, including a decrease in cash inflows from customers (principally due to the implementation of more favorable liquidity terms with accounts receivable and deferred revenue and customer prepaymentscustomers during the six months ended June 30, 2016) and an increase in netcash outflows associated with accounts payable basedrelated to inventories (based on our operating plans for delivery of 3D printing machines to customers).

Remaining activity for both periods included cash outflows for capital expenditures consistent with our operating plans.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. We seek to minimize these risks through regular operating and financing activities.activities and, when we consider it to be appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not currently utilizepurchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments to offset market risk from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.for trading or speculative purposes.

The local currency is the functional currency for significant operations outside of the United States. The determination of the functional currency of an operation is made based on the appropriate economic and management indicators.

Foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated into their United States dollar equivalents based on period end spot exchange rates, and are included in stockholders’ equity as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations are charged to operations as incurred, except for gains and losses associated with certain long-term intercompany transactions for which settlement is not planned or anticipated in the foreseeable future, which are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

We transact business globally and are subject to risks associated with fluctuatingfluctuating foreign exchange rates. Approximately 59.3%45.1% and 44.5%46.5% of our consolidated revenue was derived from transactions outside the United States for the quarters ended SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and 2015,2016, respectively. Approximately 54.0%56.1% and 45.4%50.7% of our consolidated revenue was derived from transactions outside the United States for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and 2015,2016, respectively. This revenue is generated primarily from wholly-owned subsidiaries operating in their respective countries and surrounding geographic areas. This revenue is primarily denominated in each subsidiary’s local functional currency, including the Euro and Japanese Yen. A hypothetical change in foreign exchange rates of +/- 10.0% for the quarter and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, would result in an increase (decrease) in revenue of approximately $800 $500

and $1,800,$1,200, respectively. These subsidiaries incur most of their expenses (other than intercompany expenses) in their local functional currencies.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, we held approximately $29,813$25,163 in cash, and cash equivalents, and restricted cash, of which approximately $22,859$20,565 was held by certain of our United States parentsubsidiaries in United States dollars.

Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2017. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, management concluded as of SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to a material weaknessesweakness in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 22, 2016.16, 2017.

As a result of the material weaknessesweakness described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements and related notes thereto included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2016, with theWith oversight offrom our executive management and the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, we continued to take steps and additional measures to remediate the underlying causes of the identified material weaknesses including:

Enhancing our global accounting and reporting process (including our global consolidation of financial information) by redesigning and strengthening the operating effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting. This includes a detailed review of our existing processes, improvements to the design of our internal controls (including conversion of historically manual control activities to automated control activities), updating documentation related to our business process flows, internal testing of operating effectiveness of our controls and remediation activities, as necessary. This process began in mid-2014 and we expect it to continue for the remainder of 2016.

Evaluating our information technology systems to further integrate existing systems or invest in improvements to our information technology sufficient to generate accurate and timely financial information. On January 1, 2015, we implemented the first phase of a new ERP system for our Europe operations. Despite certain difficulties encountered in the initial implementation phase of this project, resulting in a delay of the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2015, we believe that this system, when fully implemented, provides a substantial upgrade in operational and financial reporting as compared to our legacy systems. We continue to address the difficulties encounteredidentified material weakness in our information technology system platform specific to our ExOne GmbH subsidiary, in particular, how this information technology system platform impacts our accounting for inventories specific to ExOne GmbH. Our approach includes the identification and remediation of known errors in the initialoriginal implementation in a variety of, ways, including through the direct hire of personnel and collaboration with external consultants, both withsubsequent changes to, this information technology system expertise,platform in an effort to resolve identified issues in areduce certain manual processes and controls necessary to ensure accurate and timely and efficient manner. Our 2016 information technology plan includes additional upgrades or enhancementsreporting of operating results associated with this system, as well as our other existing information technologies (including the addition of a global consolidation software) with the overall goal of a simple, common and global platform for processing, recording and analyzing financial and operational data.subsidiary. We expect this process to be completed by December 31, 2017.

Streamlining our processes in evaluating transactions under GAAP. In 2015, we added or replaced several accounting and finance positions within the organization, specifically as it relates to our United States and Europe operations. While we do

25


not expect a further significant investment in personnel in 2016, we do expect that the experience garnered by our 2015 personnel investments will result in better processes and procedures with respect to the application of GAAP.

We can provide no assurance at this time that management will be able to report that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective as of December 31, 2016.2017. As an EGC, we are exempt from the requirement to obtain an attestation report from our independent registered public accounting firm on the assessment of our internal controls pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 until such time that we no longer qualify as an EGC.

The Employment Agreement allows Ms. Dillon to participate in any change of control severance plan adopted by the Company at a participation level equal to the highest participation level of the Company’s executive management team (excluding the Company’s Chief Executive Officer).  If a change of control of the Company occurs on or before December 31, 2018, and Ms. Dillon does not

qualify for benefits under any such change of control severance plan, then Ms. Dillon may be entitled to receive a payment equal to two times her annual base salary less the amount of the Company Payment, provided that she delivers to the Company a signed waiver and release of claims agreement acceptable to the Company within 30 days of the termination of her employment, and certain other conditions relating to the change of control and Ms. Dillon’s termination are met, as described in the Employment Agreement.

A copy of the Employment Agreement is expected to be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.

Adoption of Change of Control Severance Plan

On August 8, 2017, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors adopted The ExOne Company Change of Control Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”). The terms of the Severance Plan provide certain benefits to participants in the event of a change of control of the Company.  If a change of control occurs during the protection period (described below), and any of the participants either (i) has a voluntary termination of employment for good reason, or (ii) has an involuntary termination of employment, other than for death, disability or cause, then the participant is entitled to receive the following:

If the participant is designated as a Tier I employee under the Severance Plan, a one-time cash payment equal to two and a half times the participant’s annual base salary and certain health and welfare benefits for 18 months after termination;

If the participant is designated as a Tier II employee under the Severance Plan, a one-time cash payment equal to two times the participant’s annual base salary and certain health and welfare benefits for 18 months after termination; or

If the participant is designated as a Tier III employee under the Severance Plan, a one-time cash payment equal to one times the participant’s annual base salary and certain health and welfare benefits for 18 months after termination.

The protection period begins on the date on which a definitive agreement that, if consummated, would result in a change of control (or if no agreement, the date of the change of control itself), and ends on the earlier of (i) the date which is 18 months following the occurrence of the change of control or (ii) the public announcement that the transaction contemplated by the definitive agreement will not take place.

If any participant designated as a Tier I employee under the Severance Plan has a voluntary termination of employment (with or without good reason) within 30 days following the date of a change of control, then the participant is entitled to receive a one-time cash payment equal to two times the participant’s annual base salary.

If any participant designated as a Tier II or Tier III employee under the Severance Plan has a voluntary termination of employment (with or without good reason) within 30 days following the 18-month anniversary of a change of control, then the participant is entitled to receive the following:

If the participant is designated as a Tier II employee under the Severance Plan, a one-time cash payment equal to nine months of the participant’s monthly base salary; or

If the participant is designated as a Tier III employee under the Severance Plan, a one-time cash payment equal to six months of the participant’s monthly base salary.

In addition to the cash payments described above, upon the occurrence of a change in control, 50% of any unvested stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other equity based awards of the Company held by a participant will immediately vest and become exercisable.  The remaining 50% of such unvested awards held by the participant will vest and become exercisable pursuant to the terms of the awards, or immediately upon (i) voluntary termination of the participant’s employment for good reason, or (ii) involuntary termination of the participant’s employment, other than for death, disability or cause of the participant, if such termination occurs within 18 months following a change in control.

No Section 280G excise tax gross-up or other tax gross-up is provided under the Severance Plan. A copy of the Severance Plan is expected to be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2016.2017.
