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); and ExOne KK (Japan); and through December 2018, ExOne Italy S.r.l (Italy). Collectively, the consolidated group is referred to as the “Company”.

The Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-223690) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 15, 2018. The purpose of the Form S-3 was to register among other securities,various equity and debt securities. Subsidiaries of the Company 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. There have been no transactions undertaken subject to the Form S-3 since its initial filing.

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, 20182019 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, 2018,2019, 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 contractoperating lease right-of-use assets ($432), current portion of operating lease liabilities ($158) and operating lease liabilities – net of current portion ($527)274) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018,2019, have been reclassified from other noncurrent liabilities to conform toassets, accrued expenses and other current period presentation, following the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 (further described below).

Certain amounts relating to the lessor current portion of net investment in sales-type leases ($302) and lessor net investment in sales-type leases – net of current portion ($1,351) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018, have been reclassified from accounts receivableliabilities and other noncurrent assets,liabilities, respectively, to conform to current period presentation followingpresentation.

Certain amounts in the adoption of FASB ASU 2016-02 (further described below).

Related to the reclassifications further described above, amounts within theaccompanying condensed statement of consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 associated with these changes have also been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting GuidanceCOVID-19

On January 1, 2019,In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus a global pandemic (“COVID-19”) and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The impact of COVID-19 and the related economic, business and market disruptions are evolving rapidly, and their effects are uncertain. As a result of COVID-19, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2014-09, “Revenuewas required to temporarily close its operations at its North Huntingdon, Pennsylvania facility for the period from ContractsMarch 23 through March 30, 2020. In response to COVID-19, the Company has incurred incremental costs associated with Customers.” This ASU created a comprehensive framework for all entities in all industries to apply inprotecting the determination of when to recognize revenuehealth 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 principlesafety of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depictCompany’s global workforce, enhanced sanitization of the transfer of promised goods or services to customersCompany’s global operating facilities, and information technology capabilities for employees operating remotely. Beginning 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: identify thecontract(s) withMarch 2020, restrictions imposed by various governmental authorities on both domestic and international shipping and travel have caused a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract(s), determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction pricedisruption to the performance obligations in the contract(s),timing of delivery and recognize revenue when, or as, the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company adopted this guidance using the modified retrospective approach. Revenue frominstallation of the Company’s sale of three-dimensional (“3D”)3D printing machines, and 3D printed and other products, materials and services continuesresulting in negative impacts to generally be recognized when the related machines, products or materials are delivered or accepted by the Company’s customers or asfinancial position, results of operations and cash flows. The duration and severity of the related services are performed by the Company. As such, the adoption of this guidance did not have a materialoutbreak and its long-term impact on the Company’s business are uncertain at this time. The Company is unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on its future financial position, or results of operations. The Company has included the enhanced disclosures required by this guidance in its condensed consolidated financial statements (Note 5).

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2016-02, “Leases.” This ASU requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for leases classified as operating leases. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability. Additionally, when measuring assets and liabilities arising from a lease, optional payments should be included only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease, exercise a purchase option, or not exercise an option to terminate the lease. A right-of-use asset represents an entity’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability represents an entity’s obligation to make lease payments. Previously, an asset and liability only were recorded for leases classified as capital leases (financing leases). The measurement, recognition, and presentation of expensesoperations and cash flows arising from leases by a lessee remains the same. In connection with the adoption of this guidance, the Company has completed an assessment resulting in an accumulation of all of its leasing arrangements and has validated the information for accuracy and completeness. Upon adoption of the new lease guidance, management recorded a right-of-use asset and lease liability, each in the amount of approximately $400, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet for various types of operating leases, including certain machinery and other equipment and vehicles. This amount is equivalent to the aggregate future minimum lease payments on a discounted basis. The Company has also elected to apply the package of transitional practical expedients of the new lease guidance by allowing the Company to not: (1) reassess if expired or existing contracts are, or contain, leases; (2) reassess lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (3) reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. Additionally, in July 2018, the FASB issued guidance to provide for an alternative transition method to the new lease guidance, whereby an entity can choose to not reflect the impact of the new lease guidance in the prior periods included in its consolidated financial statements. The Company has utilized this alternative transition method in connection with its adoption on January 1, 2019. The Company has included the enhanced disclosures required by this guidance in its condensed consolidated financial statements (Note 11).flows.

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted FASB 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 consolidated 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. The adoption of this ASU did not have an effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.6


Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

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

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” This ASU added a new impairment model (known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under this ASU,the new guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses. The CECL model applies to most debt instruments, trade receivables, lease receivables, financial guarantee contracts, and other loan commitments. The CECL model does not have a minimum threshold for recognition of impairment losses and entities will need to measure expected credit losses on assets that have a low risk of loss. TheseAs a smaller reporting company pursuant to Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, these changes become effective for the Company on January 1, 2020.2023. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Note 2. Liquidity

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 $4,844$3,273 and $13,129$10,944 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019,2020, respectively. At September 30, 2019,2020, the Company had $4,756$39,428 in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. In addition to its unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, the Company also has access to additional capital through its $10,000 related party revolving credit facility (Note 12).

Since its inception, the Company has received cumulative unrestricted net proceeds from the sale of its common stock (through its initial public offering and subsequent secondarypublic offerings, including at-the-market offerings) of $168,361$195,847 to fund its operations. The Company maintains additional access to capital through its active shelf registration statement (Note 1) which allows for the sale of various equity or debt instruments up to an aggregate amount of $125,000 (including the at-the-market offerings further described below).

In March 2018,June 2020, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement (the “Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Oppenheimer & Company, Inc. (“Oppenheimer”) pursuant to which Oppenheimer agreed to act as sales agent in the sale of up to $25,000 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”). Sales of common stock under the Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement ended in September 2020 when the offering limit ($25,000) was reached. Following completion of this offering, in September 2020, the Company entered into a three-year, $15,000 revolving credit facilityseparate equity distribution agreement (the “Canaccord Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Canaccord Genuity LLC (“Canaccord”), pursuant to which Canaccord agreed to act as sales agent in the sale of up to $25,000 in the aggregate of ExOne common stock in “at-the-market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The terms of both the Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement and the Canaccord Equity Distribution Agreement require a related party (Note 13)3.0% commission on the sale of ExOne common stock as well as reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by the sales agent.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company sold 2,060,878 shares of common stock in the above-described at-the market offerings (1,822,274 shares under the Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement and 238,604 shares under the Canaccord Equity Distribution Agreement) at an average selling price of $12.26 per share, resulting in net proceeds to provide additional funding for working capitalthe Company (after deducting commissions) of $24,512. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company sold 2,443,479 shares of common stock in the above-described at-the-market offerings (2,204,875 shares under the Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement and general corporate purposes. 238,604 shares under the Canaccord Equity Distribution Agreement) at an average selling price of $11.73 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company (after deducting commissions) of $27,800.  During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred expenses (other than commissions) associated with at-the-market offerings of $124 and $314, respectively.  At September 30, 2019, $13,0002020, $213 of the expenses (other than commissions) associated with at-the-market offerings remained availableunpaid, of which $147 was included in accounts payable and $66 was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

There have been no sales of shares of common stock in at-the-market offerings subsequent to September 30, 2020. Future sales of securities in at-the-market offerings under the related party revolving credit facility. Company’s active shelf registration statement, if any, are dependent on market conditions, which may restrict the timing and extent of any future offering of securities by the Company.

In June 2018,addition to net proceeds from the sale of its common stock, on April 18, 2020, the Company initiatedreceived additional unrestricted cash proceeds of $2,194 in connection with a Paycheck Protection Program loan (Note 13).

The Company has previously exhibited its ability to modify its operating structure and support its liquidity position through various restructuring and other actions, including its 2018 global cost realignment program focused onprogram. In response to adverse market conditions associated with COVID-19, beginning in March 2020 and through April 2020, the Company initiated various cost savings actions including a reductionmix of employee terminations, furloughs and pay rate reductions, as well as reductions in the Company’s production overhead costsconsulting and operatingother expenses, all in an effort to drive efficiency in its operationsconserve cash and preserve capital.maintain adequate liquidity.

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 (in addition to the costs savings measures associated with the Company’s 2018 global cost realignment programthose further describeddiscussed above). The Company may also seek to raise additional capital to support its growth through the incurrence of additional debt, the sale of equity or other alternatives (including asset sales) or a combination thereof.

Note 4. Loss Per Share

The Company presents basic and diluted loss per common share amounts. Basic loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss available to common stockholders 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 three months and nine months ended September 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, basic average common shares outstanding and diluted average common shares outstanding were the same because the effect of potential shares of common stock, including stock options (828,059(654,617 – 20192020 and 513,970828,0592018)2019) and unvested restricted stock issued (66,513(199,391 – 20192020 and 67,00166,5132018)2019), was anti-dilutive.

Note 5. Revenue

The Company derives revenue from the sale of 3D printing machines and 3D printed and other products, materials and services. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation(s) under a contract (either implicit or explicit) by transferring the promised product or service to a customer either when (or as) the customer obtains control of the product or service. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products or providing services. As such, revenue is recorded net of returns, allowances, customer discounts, and incentives. Sales, value add, and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenue) basis. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales.

8


Certain of the Company’s contracts with customers provide for multiple performance obligations. Sales of 3D printing machines may also include optional equipment, materials, replacement components and services (installation, training and other services, including maintenance services and/or an extended warranty). Certain other contracts have a single performance obligation, as the promise to transfer products or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, not distinct. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the Company’s best estimate of stand-alone selling price for each distinct product or service in the contract, which is generally based on an observable price.

The Company’s revenue from products is transferred to customers at a point in time. The Company’s contracts for 3D printing machines generally include substantive customer acceptance provisions. Revenue under these contracts is recognized when customer acceptance provisions have been satisfied. For all other product sales, the Company recognizes revenue at the point in time in which the customer obtains control of the product, which is generally when product title passes to the customer upon delivery. In limitedcertain cases, title does not transfer and revenue is not recognized until the customer has received the products at its physical location.

The Company’s revenue from service arrangements includes deferred maintenance contracts and extended warranties that can be purchased at the customer’s option. The Company generally provides a standard one-year warranty on the Company’s 3D printing machines, which is considered an assurance type warranty, and not considered a separate performance obligation (Note 10)9). Revenue associated with deferred maintenance contracts is generally recognized at a point in time when the related services are performed where sufficient historical evidence indicates that the costs of performing the related services under the contract are not incurred on a straight-line basis, with such revenue recognized in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred. Revenue associated with extended warranties is generally recognized over time on a straight-line basis over the related contract period.

The Company’s revenue from service arrangements includes contracts with the federal government under fixed-fee, cost reimbursable and time and materials arrangements (certain of which may have periods of performance greater than one year). Revenue under these contracts is generally recognized over time using an input measure based upon labor hoursdirect costs incurred and provisional rates provided under the contracts. As such, the nature of these contracts may give rise to variable consideration, primarily based upon completion of the Company’s annual Incurred Cost Submissionincurred cost submission filing as required by the federal government. Historically, amounts associated with variable consideration have not been significant.

The Company’s revenue from service arrangements includes certain research and development services. Revenue under research and development service contracts is generally recognized over time where progress is measured in a manner that reflects the transfer of control of the promised goods or services to the customer. Depending on the facts and circumstances surrounding each research and development service contract, revenue is recognized over time using either an input measure (based on the entity’s direct costs incurred in an effort to satisfy the performance obligations) or an output measure specifically(specifically units or parts delivered, based upon certain customer acceptance and delivery requirements. Revenue recognized over time using an output measure is not significant.requirements).

Revenue from 3D printing machines includes leasing revenue whereby the Company is the lessor of 3D printing machines to its customers. Leasing revenue is accounted for under ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Note 11)10).

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and deferred revenue and customer prepayments (contract liabilities) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company considers a number of factors in its evaluation of the creditworthiness of its customers, including past due amounts, past

9


payment history, and current economic conditions. For 3D printing machines, the Company’s terms of sale vary by transaction. To reduce credit risk in connection with 3D printing machine sales, the Company may, depending upon the circumstances, require customers to furnish letters of credit or bank guarantees or to provide advanced payment (either partial or in full). For 3D printed and other products and materials, the Company’s terms of sale generally require payment within 30 to 60 days after delivery, although the Company also recognizes that longer payment periods are customary in certain countries where it transacts business. Service arrangements are generally billed in accordance with specific contract terms and are typically billed in advance or in proportion to performance of the related services.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized revenue of $7,233 related to contract liabilities at January 1, 2020. There were no other significant changes in contract liabilities during the three months or nine months ended September 30, 2019.2020. Contract assets arewere not significant.

Forsignificant during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recognized revenue2020.

As of $1,714 related to contract liabilities at January 1, 2019.

At September 30, 2019, 2020, the Company had approximately $25,800$42,600 of remaining performance obligations (including contract liabilities), which is also referred to as backlog, of which approximately $21,700 was$35,500 is expected to be fulfilled during the next twelve months following such date.notwithstanding uncertainty related to the impact of COVID-19 (Note 1) including, but not limited to, international shipping and travel restrictions brought about by COVID-19 which could have an adverse effect on the timing of delivery and installation of products and/or services to customers.

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient associated with incremental costs of obtaining a contract, and as such, sales commission expense is generally expensed when incurred because the amortization period would be one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Accounts receivable and net investment in sales-type leases (Note 11)10) are reported at their net realizable value. The Company carries its investment in sales-type leases based on discounting the minimum lease payments by the interest rate implicit in the lease, and less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable and net investment in sales-type leases is based on the Company’s evaluation of customer accounts with past-due outstanding balances or specific accounts for which it has information that the customer may be unable to meet its financial obligations. Based upon review of these accounts, and management’s analysis and judgment, the Company records a specific allowance for that customer’s accounts receivable or net investment in sales-type lease balance to reduce the outstanding balance to the amount expected to be collected. The allowance is re-evaluated and adjusted periodically as additional information is received that impacts the allowance amount reserved. At September 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $481 $524and $225,$508, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, the Company recorded net provision (recoveries) for bad debts of $414$15 and ($3),$414, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, the Company recorded net (recoveries) provision (recoveries) for bad debts of ($4) and $264, and ($40), respectively.

Note 6. Restructuring

Houston, Texas

In August 2018, the Company committed to a plan to consolidate certain of its 3D printing operations from its Houston, Texas facility into its Troy, Michigan facility. These actions were taken as part of the Company’s efforts to optimize its business model and maximize its facility utilization. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded a charge of $28 split between cost of sales ($15) and selling, general and administrative expense ($13) associated with involuntary employee terminations related to this plan. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded an additional charge of $1 (to cost of sales) associated with asset impairments related to this plan. There are no additional charges expected to be incurred associated with this plan in future periods. The Company settled all amounts associated with involuntary employee terminations during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

In September 2019, the Company reached agreement with a third party for the sale of certain property and equipment ($822 included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet for each of the periods presented) associated with the former Houston, Texas facility. The Company expects to receive net proceeds from the sale of the property and equipment of approximately $1,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2019 and to record a corresponding gain on the sale of approximately $200 from the disposal.

Desenzano del Garda, Italy

In December 2017, the Company committed to a plan to consolidate certain of its 3D printing operations from its Desenzano del Garda, Italy facility into its Gersthofen, Germany facility. These actions were taken as part of the Company’s efforts to optimize its business model and maximize its facility utilization. During the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a charge of $72 split between cost of sales ($19) and selling, general and administrative expense ($53) associated with involuntary employee terminations related to this plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded an additional charge of $245 associated with other exit costs ($17) and asset impairments ($228) related to this plan. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an additional charge of $13 associated with asset impairments related to this plan. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded a gain from disposal of certain property and equipment of $51 (recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss). Charges associated with other exit costs recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2018 were recorded to cost of sales in the

10


accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss. Charges associated with asset impairments recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were recorded to cost of sales as a component of depreciation expense in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss. Other exit costs relate to the remaining facility rent due under a non-cancellable operating lease following the cessation of operations at the facility in January 2018. Asset impairment charges relate to certain leasehold improvements associated with the exited facility and other equipment which was abandoned by the Company. There are no additional charges expected to be incurred associated with this plan in future periods. The Company settled all amounts associated with involuntary employee terminations and other exit costs (remaining facility rent payments) during 2018.

Note 7. Impairment

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, 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 and used at the asset group level. Assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets held and used 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 and used, the Company determined the carrying amount of long-lived assets held and used 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 and used, 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 and used 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 and used, resulting in a material adverse effect on the financial position and results of operations of the Company.

On February 18, 2020, the Company completed a sale-leaseback transaction associated with its European headquarters and operating facility in Gersthofen, Germany (Note 10). As a result of the completion of this transaction, the Company derecognized $17,282 in net property and equipment during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Sale of the facility resulted in a gain of $1,462 during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Note 10.9. Product Warranty Reserves

Substantially all of the Company’s 3D printing machines are covered by a standard twelve-monthone-year 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 external forces, or manufacturing changes that could impact product quality. In the event that the Company determines that its current or future product repair and replacement costs exceed estimates, an adjustment to these reserves would be charged to cost of sales in the period such a determination is made.

The following table summarizes changes in product warranty reserves, which amounts were reflected in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet for the periods indicated:

Note 11.10. Leases

Lessee

The Company leases facilities, machinery and other equipment and vehicles under operating lease arrangements (with initial terms greater than twelve months), expiring in various years through 2026. In addition, the Company leases certain equipment and vehicles under finance (previously capital) lease arrangements, which are not significant.

For all operating lease arrangements (with the exception of short-term lease arrangements), the Company presents 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.

The Company has elected, as a practical expedient, not to separate non-lease components from lease components, and instead accountaccounts for each separate component as a single lease component for all lease arrangements, as lessee. In addition, the Company has elected, as a practical expedient, not to apply lease recognition requirements to short-term lease arrangements, generally those with a lease term of less than twelve months, for all classes of underlying assets. In determination of the lease term, the Company considers the likelihood of lease renewal options and lease termination provisions. As a result, lease payments under these short-term lease arrangements are recognized in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.  

The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments, as the implicit rate of the lease arrangements is generally not readily determinable.

Through July 2019, certain of the Company’s operating lease arrangements were with related parties under common control (Note 18). Lease cost under operating lease agreements with related parties, included within short-term lease cost below, was $4 and $28 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019.2019, respectively.

As previously disclosed underOn December 10, 2019, ExOne Property GmbH and ExOne GmbH, the German subsidiaries of the Company (the “German Subsidiaries”), entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Solidas Immobilien und Grundbesitz GmbH, a private, unaffiliated German real estate investor (the “Buyer”), for the sale of the Company’s European headquarters and operating facility in Gersthofen, Germany (the “Facility”) for a purchase price of approximately $18,500 (€17,000), of which approximately $2,200 (€2,000) was received prior to December 31, 2019. Concurrent with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, ExOne GmbH and the Buyer entered into a rental contract (the “Lease”) for the leaseback of the Facility for an initial aggregate annual rent totaling approximately $1,700 (€1,500), plus applicable taxes, which is fixed during the initial three-year term and is subject to adjustment on an annual basis (in accordance with the consumer price index for Germany) during the 2 five-year option extension periods. The sale-leaseback transaction closed on February 18, 2020. In connection with the completion of the sale-leaseback transaction, the Company recorded an operating lease accounting standard,right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability of $4,605, which was representative of the present value of future minimum lease payments over the initial three-year term, as there were no penalties or other factors associated with the lease that resulted in reasonable assurance of operating lease arrangements (with initial terms greater than twelve months)its extension at December 31, 2018, were as follows:inception.

The Company leases machinery and equipment to customers (principally 3D printing machines and related equipment) under lease arrangements classified as either operating leases or sales-type leases. The Company’s operating lease arrangements have initial terms generally ranging from one to five years, certain of which may contain extension or termination clauses, or both. Such operating lease arrangements also generally include a purchase option to acquire the related machinery and equipment at the end of the lease term for either a fixed amount as determined at inception, or a subsequently negotiated fair market value. At September 30, 2019,2020, the Company estimated that the total fair market value significantly exceeded the related net book value of the machinery and equipment held under the Company’s operating lease arrangements. The Company’s sales-type lease arrangements generally include transfer of ownership at the end of the lease term, and as such, the Company’s net investment in sale-type lease arrangements presented in the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet generally does not include an amount of unguaranteed residual value.

TheFor certain of its arrangements, the Company has elected, as a practical expedient, not to separateseparates and allocates (Note 5) certain non-lease components (principally maintenance services) from lease components, and instead account for each separate component as a single lease component for all lease arrangements, as lessor.components. Sales, value add, and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from lease income) basis. In determination of the lease term, the Company considers the likelihood of lease renewal options and lease termination provisions. Additionally, certain of the Company’s lease arrangements do not qualify as sale-type leases, as collectability is not reasonably assured.

Contingencies

On March 1, 2018, the Company’s ExOne GmbH subsidiary notified Voxeljet AG that it had materially breached a 2003 Patent and Know-How Transfer Agreement and asserted its rights to set-off damages as a result of the breaches against the annual license fee due from the Company under the agreement. At this time, the Company cannot reasonably estimate a contingency, if any, related to this matter.

The Company and its subsidiaries areis 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. 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 operations, ExOne GmbH issues short-term financial guarantees and letters of credit to third parties in connection with certain commercial transactions requiring security. ExOne GmbH maintainssecurity through a credit facility with a German bank which provides for various short-term financings inbank.

On February 24, 2020, ExOne GmbH entered into an amendment and replacement of its credit facility with the formGerman bank. The credit facility amendments included the elimination of the overdraft credit and short-term loan features of the prior agreement and replaced them with an increased capacity amount of approximately $4,100 (€3,500) for the issuance of financial guarantees and letters of credit and collateral security for commercial transactions requiring security. The cash collateral requirement for an aggregatethe issuance of approximately $1,400 (€1,300). In addition, ExOne GmbH may use thefinancial guarantees and letters of credit facility for short-term, fixed-rate loans in minimum increments of approximately $100 (€100) with minimum terms of at least 30 days. The overdraft credit interest rate is fixed at 10.2% while the interest rate associated with commercial transactions requiring security (financialwas eliminated for amounts up to approximately $1,200 (€1,000) as the amendment provided the German bank with a collateral interest in the accounts receivable of ExOne GmbH. Amounts in excess of approximately $1,200 (€1,000) continue to require cash collateral under the amended credit facility.

At September 30, 2020, total outstanding financial guarantees and letters of credit or collateral security) is fixed at 1.75%. Theissued by ExOne GmbH under the amended credit facility has an indefinite term and is subject to cancellation by either party at any time upon repayment of amounts outstanding orwere $583 (€497), with expiration of commercial transactions requiring security. There is no commitment fee associated with the credit facility. There are no negative covenants associated with the credit facility. The credit facility has been guaranteed by the Company.dates ranging from October 2020 through February 2023. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no outstanding borrowings in the form of overdraft credit or short-term loans under the credit facility. At September 30, 2019, total outstanding financial guarantees and letters of credit issued by ExOne GmbH under the former credit facility were $857$560 (€785) with expiration dates ranging from October 2019 through March 2020. At December 31, 2018, total outstanding financial guarantees and letters of credit issued by ExOne GmbH under the credit facility were $1,044 (€912)499).

In addition to amounts issued by ExOne GmbH under the credit facility, from time to time, ExOne GmbH enters into separate agreements with 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 facility. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, ExOne GmbH had a singular financial guarantee outstanding under a separate agreement for $87 (€80) and $96 (€80), respectively, with an expiration date of February 2023. Related to this separate agreement, the requirement for cash collateral was waived by the German bank as it also represents the counterparty in the related transaction.

Kent Rockwell, who was the Executive Chairman of the Company (a related party) at such date and is currently Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company, relating to a $15,000 revolving credit facility (the “LBM Credit“Credit Agreement”) to provide additional funding to the Company for working capital and general corporate purposes. The LBM Credit Agreement providesprovided a credit facility for a term of three years (through March 12, 2021) and bears, bearing interest at a rate of one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 500 basis points (7.0%(6.8% at December 31, 2019 and 7.5%5.1% at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively)2020). The LBM Credit Agreement requiresrequired a commitment fee of 75 basis points, or 0.75%, on the unused portion of the facility, payable monthly in arrears. In addition, an up-front commitment fee of 125 basis points, or 1.25% ($188), was required at closing. Borrowings under the LBM Credit Agreement were collateralized by the accounts receivable, inventories and machinery and equipment of the Loan Parties.

On February 18, 2020, the Loan Parties and LBM entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) which (i) reduced the available capacity under the revolving credit facility to $10,000, (ii) extended the term of the credit facility until March 31, 2024, (iii) increased the commitment fee to 100 basis points, or 1.00%, on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility, and (iv) provided a process for the replacement of the LIBOR index after 2021. In addition, the accounts receivable of ExOne GmbH no longer serve as collateral for borrowings under the amended revolving credit facility.

Borrowings under the credit facility are required to be made in minimum increments of $1,000. ExOneThe Company may terminate or reduce the credit commitment at any time during the term of the LBMamended Credit Agreement without penalty. ExOneThe Company may also make prepayments against outstanding borrowings under the LBMamended Credit Agreement at any time without penalty.

The Company intends to use all or a significant majority of the Loan proceeds for qualifying expenses. The terms of the Loan, including eligibility and forgiveness, may be subject to further requirements in regulations and guidance adopted by the SBA, including the Paycheck Protection Flexibility Act enacted in June 2020. The Company has elected to account for the Loan in accordance with the terms of the Note while its forgiveness eligibility remains subject to review.

On May 21, 2012, the Company entered into a building note payable with an unrelated United States bank.

Note 14. Income Taxes

The (benefit) provision (benefit) for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was ($34) and 2018 was $15, and $17, respectively. The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $200 and 2018 was ($686) and $52,, respectively. The Company has completed a discrete period computation of its (benefit) provision (benefit) for income taxes for each of the periods presented. The discrete period computation was required as a result of 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.

16


The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 and 2018 was 0.3% (provision1.0% (benefit on a loss) and 5.6%0.3% (provision on a loss), respectively. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was 1.9% (provision on a loss) and 2018 was 5.0% (benefit on a loss), respectively.

For the three and 0.4% (provision on a loss), respectively. Fornine months ended September 30, 2020 and the three months ended September 30, 2019, and 2018, the effective tax rate differsdiffered from the United States federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to net changes in valuation allowances for the periods.period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the effective tax rate differsdiffered from the United States federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions (further describeddiscussed below) and net changes in valuation allowances for the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the effective tax rate differs from the United States federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to net changes in valuation allowances for the periods.

The Company has provided a valuation allowance for certain of its net deferred tax assets as a result of the Company not generating consistent net operating profits in certain jurisdictions in which it operates. As such, any benefitcertain benefits from deferred taxes in any of the periods presented hashave been fully offset by changes in the valuation allowance for the related 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

16


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 intercompany transactions.

Note 16. 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.

19


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 lowest 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, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the Company had no0 financial instruments (assets or liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and current portion of long-term debt approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of current portion of long term debt and long-term debt – net of current portion has been estimated by management based on the consideration of applicable interest rates, (includingincluding certain instruments at variable or floating rates)rates and the nominal fixed interest rate (1.0%) associated with the Company’s PPP Loan (Note 13) and other available information (including quoted prices of similar instruments available to the Company). Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were classified as Level 1; Current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt – net of current portion were classified as Level 2.2.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act with respect to our future financial or business performance, strategies, or expectations. Forward-looking statements typically are identified by words or phrases such as “trend,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “pipeline,” “believe,” “comfortable,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “current,” “intention,” “estimate,” “position,” “assume,” “outlook,” “continue,” “remain,” “maintain,” “sustain,” “seek,” “achieve,” as well as similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could” and “may.”

We caution that forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time.

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 (metal) and indirect (sand) 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 EACs. We also supply the associated materials, including consumables and replacement parts, and other services, including training and technical support, that are 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 volumetric output (as measured by build box size and printing speed), uniquely position us to serve the needs of industrial customers.

Outlook

We planThe impact of COVID-19 and the related economic, business and market disruptions are evolving rapidly, and their effects are uncertain. As a result of COVID-19, we were required to growtemporarily close our market leading positionoperations at our North Huntingdon, Pennsylvania facility for the period from March 23 through March 30, 2020. In response to COVID-19, we have incurred incremental costs associated with respectprotecting the health and safety of our global workforce, enhanced sanitization of our global operating facilities, and information technology capabilities for employees operating remotely. Beginning in March 2020, restrictions imposed by various governmental authorities on both domestic and international shipping and travel have caused a disruption to the timing of delivery and installation of our 3D printing solutionsmachines, resulting in negative impacts to our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The duration and severity of the outbreak and its long-term impact on our business are uncertain at this time. We are unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on our future financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

22


In response to adverse market conditions associated with COVID-19, beginning in March 2020 and through April 2020, we initiated various cost savings actions including a mix of employee terminations, furloughs and pay rate reductions, as well as reductions in consulting and other expenses, all in an effort to conserve cash and maintain adequate liquidity. As a result of these actions, and other reduced costs such as global travel, we realized approximately $4,000 in cash cost savings through September 30, 2020. We estimate additional cash cost savings in the range of approximately $1,000 to $2,000 for customersthe remainder of 2020, with approximately $2,000 to $3,000 of the total 2020 cash cost savings sustained into 2021. Given the high level of uncertainty associated with the duration and severity of COVID-19, we expect to continue advancingto assess whether additional cost actions are necessary to further adjust our innovationsoperating model.

We are the global leader in direct and indirect printing, principally through an expansionindustrial 3D printers utilizing binder jetting technology for non-polymer-based materials. Our continued focus is to achieve profitable growth via three strategic initiatives:

-

Expand Both Our Customer and Application Focus. We intend to leverage our substantial experience in binder jetting technology to focus on the highest value industries and applications. We have made a significant investment in our global commercial operations to drive our growth in this area.

-

Extend the Capabilities of Our Core Technology. We intend to expand our core binder jetting technology through our machine platforms while at the same time lowering the total cost of ownership of our systems for our customers. We are also focused on driving modularity among our various machine platforms for both direct (metal) and indirect (sand) applications.

-

Execute on Recurring Revenue Growth. We intend to execute on our plan to expand our offerings for 3D printed and other products, materials and services while better leveraging our growing global installed base of 3D printers.

Our operating results continue to be impacted by a prolonged downturn in global manufacturing trends as a result of COVID-19 which has influenced the capital expenditure investments of our fine powder (less than 20 micron) direct printing capabilitiescustomers. Despite these headwinds, we ended the third quarter with a record backlog balance of approximately $42,600. We expect the combination of our backlog at September 30, 2020 and development activities associatedan acceleration in market adoption of our binder jetting technology, including our newly introduced printer platforms (our X1 25Pro® , X1 160ProTM and InnoventPro® for metal applications and S-Max ProTM for sand applications), to provide the basis for our operating stability for the remainder of 2020 and into 2021 despite continuing negative macroeconomic trends for global manufacturing, including the impact of COVID-19.

Sale-Leaseback of European Headquarters and Operating Facility in Gersthofen, Germany

On December 10, 2019, ExOne Property GmbH and ExOne GmbH (our “German Subsidiaries”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with large format directSolidas Immobilien und Grundbesitz GmbH, a private, unaffiliated German real estate investor (the “Buyer”), for the sale of our European headquarters and indirect 3D printing machines. Our focus continuesoperating facility in Gersthofen, Germany (the “Facility”) for a cash price of approximately $18,500 (€17,000), of which approximately $2,200 was received prior to December 31, 2019. Concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, ExOne GmbH and the Buyer entered into a rental contract (the “Lease”) for the leaseback of the Facility for an initial aggregate annual rent totaling approximately $1,700 (€1,500), plus applicable taxes, which is fixed during the initial three-year term and is subject to adjustment on an annual basis (in accordance with the consumer price index for Germany) during the two five-year option extension periods. The sale-leaseback transaction closed on February 18, 2020.

As a result of the completion of the sale-leaseback transaction further discussed above, we recorded or expect to record the following effects on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows:

-

As indicated, we expect to incur annual rent expense (which commenced during the three months ending March 31, 2020) of approximately $1,700 (with an expected allocation of approximately $1,300, $200 and $200 to cost of sales, research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, based on the relative utilization of the Facility). This is in place of depreciation recorded in prior annual periods associated with the Facility of approximately $600 (allocated approximately $400, $100 and $100 to cost of sales, research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, based on the relative utilization of the Facility).

-

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded a gain from sale-leaseback of property and equipment of $1,462.

-

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded an operating right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability of $4,605, which was representative of the present value of future minimum lease payments over the initial three-year term as there were no penalties or other factors associated with the lease that resulted in reasonable assurance of its extension at inception.

Backlog

At September 30, 2020, our backlog was approximately $42,600 of which approximately $35,500 is expected to be industrial markets for utilizationfulfilled during the next twelve months notwithstanding uncertainty related to the impact of binder jetting technologies for non-polymer based materials. Our strength in industrial markets is rooted inCOVID-19 (further discussed above) including, but not limited to, domestic and international shipping and travel restrictions brought about by COVID-19 which could have an adverse effect on the timing of delivery and installation of products and/or services to customers. At December 31, 2019, our diverse material capabilities, our lower cost of adoption versus other competing technologies, our faster printing speedsbacklog was approximately $31,100 and our scalability to larger product size.  

22


Backlog

Atat September 30, 2019 our backlog was approximately $25,800 of which approximately $21,700 was expected to be fulfilled during the twelve months following such date. At December 31, 2018, our backlog was approximately $12,300.$25,800.

23


Seasonality

Purchases of our 3D printing machines are often subject to the capital expenditure cycles of our customers. Generally, 3D printing machine sales are higher in our third and fourth quarters than in our first and second quarters; however, as acceptance of our 3D printing machines as a credible alternative to traditional methods of production grows, we expect to limit the seasonality we experience.

We believe that COVID-19 may have an adverse effect on the future capital expenditure decisions of our customers outside of their normal spending cycles, which may impact the timing and extent of such decisions.

Results of Operations

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 20192020 was $4,844,$3,273, or $0.30$0.19 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $323$4,844, or $0.02$0.30 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2018. 2019. The decrease in our net loss was principally due to an increase in revenue and gross profit, primarily due to a higher volume of sales of 3D printing machines combined with a decrease in operating expenses (research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses) primarily as a result of certain cost savings actions taken, and other cost reductions realized, as a result of COVID-19.

Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2019,2020 was $13,129,$10,944, or $0.81$0.65 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $14,745$13,129, or $0.91$0.81 per basic and diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

The increase in our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018 was principally due to a reduction in our revenues and gross profit, as well as the absence of a gain from an insurance recovery for a 3D printing machine damaged by a third party freight company while in transit (all changes further described below).  

2019. The decrease in our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was principally due to lower operating expenses primarily as a result of certain cost savings actions taken, and other cost reductions realized, as a result of COVID-19 and the absence of costs associated with the GIFA international foundry show in Dusseldorf, Germany (a once every four-year event), which we attended in June 2019. We also recognized a gain of $1,462 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 associated with the sale-leaseback of our European headquarters and operating facility in Gersthofen, Germany. Partially offsetting the decrease in our operating expenses (research and development and selling, general and administrative expense) mostly due to our 2018 global cost realignment program and anet loss, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded an income tax benefit of $818 associated with the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions offset byfollowing the completion of a reduction intax examination of our revenues and gross profit and the absence of the aforementioned gain from an insurance recovery (all changes further described below).German operations.

The decreaseincrease in revenue resulted from a decreasean increase in revenue attributable to our 3D printing machines product group, offset by anprimarily due to a higher volume of sales of 3D printing machines.

The increase in revenue attributablerevenues from 3D printing machines of $6,516 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, or 164.0%, as compared to the same period in the prior year, resulted from higher volumes (13 units sold during the three months ended September 30, 2020 versus nine units sold during the three months ended September 30, 2019) including contributions from our fourth quarter 2019 product introductions, the S-Max ProTM (sand) and X1 25ProTM (metal) platforms and a favorable mix of machine sold.

Revenue from 3D printed and other products, materials and services for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was generally consistent with the three months ended September 30, 2019. Comparably, increases in our aftermarket revenues of $572, driven by increases in our global installed base of 3D printing machines, and funded research and development arrangements of $283, driven by an automotive project which commenced during the three months ended December 31, 2019, were offset by decreases in revenues associated with our global sand EAC network of $918 based on lower end market demand as a result of the impact of COVID-19 on the macroeconomic environment.

Revenue for both product group.groups were impacted by COVID-19, including disruptions to domestic and international shipping and travel in addition to the negative macroeconomic effects.

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $41,881, compared with revenue of $35,742 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $6,139, or 17.2%. The decreaseincrease in revenue resulted from an increase in revenue attributable to both our product groups.

Gross profit percentage was 22.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared with 26.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared with 39.6% for2019.

The increase in gross profit during the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in our gross profit2020 was primarily due to a decrease in our volume ofhigher revenue volumes and lower fixed overhead costs, partially offset by lower realized pricing on products sold resulting(including sales of our X1 25Pro platform following its initial market introduction in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the sale of a discontinued sand system during the three months ended September 30, 2020) and unfavorable warranty experience.  Lower fixed overhead costs during the three months ended September 30, 2020 were driven by a reduction in leveragelabor, travel, and other discretionary manufacturing expense based on actions taken and other realized reductions as a result of COVID-19.  These decreases were offset by an increase in facility rent expense (versus depreciation) following completion of the sale-leaseback of our fixed cost base.European headquarters and operating facility in Gersthofen, Germany during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 was $25,080,$31,263, compared with cost of sales of $28,560 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease2019 of $3,480,$25,080, an increase of $6,183, or 12.2%24.7%.

The decrease in gross profit during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in our gross profit2020 was primarily due to lower realized pricing on products (including sales of our X1 25Pro platform following its initial market introduction in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the sale of a decrease in our volume of products sold resulting indiscontinued sand system during the three months ended September 30, 2020) and unfavorable warranty experience, partially offset by higher revenue volumes and lower fixed overhead costs.  Lower fixed overhead costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were driven by a reduction in leveragelabor, travel, and other discretionary manufacturing expense based on actions taken and other realized reductions as a result of our fixed cost base and net negative experience related to product warranties of $367. COVID-19.  These decreases were offset by cost savings associated withan increase in facility rent expense (versus depreciation) following completion of the sale-leaseback of our 2018 global cost realignment program (primarily costs associated with our former Houston, Texas facility). In addition, we realized net benefitsEuropean headquarters and operating facility in cost of sales relating to a reduction in net charges associated with slow-moving, obsolete and lower of cost or net realizable value inventories of $873 (principally due to the $561 charge associated with our industrial microwave inventories recordedGersthofen, Germany during the three months ended June 30, 2018) and the absence of $223 in exit costs associated with our Desenzano del Garda, Italy and Houston, Texas facility consolidations.March 31, 2020.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 20192020 were $2,430,$2,013, compared with research and development expenses of $2,444$2,430 for the three months ended September 30, 2018,2019, a decrease of $14,$417, or 0.6%17.2%. The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to decreases associated with COVID-19, including reductions of employee-related costs of $84 and travel-related expenses of $53. In addition, material-related costs decreased by $159 and consulting and professional fees decreased by $72 based on reductions in amounts expectedmachine and material development spending between the periods.

Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, were $6,858 compared with research and development expenses of $7,399 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $541, or 7.3%. The decrease in research and development expenses is primarily due to be awarded underdecreases associated with COVID-19, including reductions of employee-related costs of $17 and travel-related expenses of $62. In addition, material-related costs decreased by $389 and consulting and professional fees decreased by $198 based on reductions in machine and material development spending between the periods.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were $4,825, compared with selling, general and administrative expenses of $5,326 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $501, or 9.4%. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was principally due to decreases associated with COVID-19, including employee-related costs of $252, travel-related expenses of $154 and trade show expenses of $86. In addition, consulting and professional fees decreased $198 and net provisions for bad debts decreased $400 due to the absence of a specific customer provision recorded in the 2019 period. Offsetting these decreases was an increase in sales commissions of $218 consistent with our increase in revenues for the comparable period and the absence of a net reversal of $310 to equity-based compensation expenses related to the 2019 Program of $47 based on a changechanges in the estimated outcome of the defined financial goals for 2019 under the 2019 Program. This decrease was offset by an increase in material costs and consulting and professional fees of $22, primarily associated with our development of the X1 25PROTM direct 3D printing machine and S-MAX PROTM indirect 3D printing machine.

Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, were $7,399 compared with research and development expenses of $8,474 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease of $1,075, or 12.7%. The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to decreases in employee-related costs (principally salaries and benefits) of $353 and consulting and professional fees of $841 (both reductions primarily as a result of our 2018 global cost realignment program) and a decrease in amounts expected to be awarded under our 2019 Program of $87. These decreases were offset by an increase in material costs of $238, primarily associated with our development of the X1 25PROTM direct 3D printing machine and S-MAX PROTM indirect 3D printing machine.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were $5,326, compared with selling, general and administrative expenses of $5,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $126, or 2.4%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was principally due to a net provision for bad debts of $414 during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to net recoveries of $2 during the three months ended September 30, 2018. The net provision for bad debts recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2019 included a specific customer provision of $416 associated with a leasing arrangement based on deterioration in credit quality of the lessee. This increase was offset by a decrease of $239 associated with a reduction in equity-based compensation and other amounts expected to be awarded under our 2019 Program based on a change in the estimated outcome of the defined financial goals for 2019 under the 2019 Program.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 were $16,916,$15,476, compared with selling, general and administrative expenses of $17,755$16,916 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018,2019, a decrease of $839,$1,440, or 4.7%8.5%The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was principally due to a decreasereductions in employee-related costs (salariestrade show expenses of $766 due to COVID-19 and benefits)the absence of $1,524 (including $708 in employee termination costs associated with the change in our Chief Executive Officer and our 2018 global cost realignment program, recorded during the three months ended June 2018) and $240 of amounts expected to be awarded under our 2019 Program. These decreases were offset by increases associated with equity-based compensation of $675 (principally associated with changes in executive management), net provision for bad debts of $304 (further discussed above) and selling costs (sales promotion, trade show and external commissions) of $222, primarily associated with our investment in the GIFA international foundry show in Dusseldorf, Germany (a once every four-year event), lower travel expenses of $418 as a result of COVID-19 global travel restrictions, lower consulting and professional fees of $580, lower equity-based and other incentive compensation of $295 and a reduction in provision for bad debts of $268 (further described above). Offsetting these decreases were increases in employee costs of $603 primarily due to investments made to our commercial operations, offset by actions taken (terminations and furloughs) in response to COVID-19 and an increase in sales commissions of $322 consistent with our increase in revenues for the comparable period.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 20192020 was $85,$54, compared with interest expense of $73$85 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase2019, a decrease of $12,$31, or 16.4%36.5%. The increase in interest expense was principally due to interest incurred in connection with our related party revolving credit facility ($65 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $51 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018) based on borrowings of $2,000 under the related party revolving credit facility during the three months ended September 30, 2019. There were no such borrowings during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 was $227,$171, compared with interest expense of $179$227 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase2019, a decrease of $48,$56, or 26.8%24.7%. The increase decrease in interest expense for both periods was principally due to lower interest incurred in connectionassociated with our related party revolving credit facility entered into on March 12, 2018 ($165 during(including lower debt issuance cost amortization) following amendment of the nine months ended September 30, 2019, including interest expense associated withCredit Agreement (which reduced the aforementioned borrowings duringborrowing capacity of the three months ended September 30, 2019 further discussed above, as compared to $110 duringfacility) and the nine months ended September 30, 2018).extension of the term of the credit facility in February 2020.

(Benefit) Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes

The (benefit) provision (benefit) for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was ($34) and 2018 was $15, and $17, respectively. The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019  was $200 and 2018 was ($686) and $52,, respectively. We have completed a discrete period computation of our (benefit) provision (benefit) for income taxes for each of the periods presented. The discrete period computation was required as a result of 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 three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 and 2018 was 0.3% (provision1.0% (benefit on a loss) and 5.6%0.3% (provision on a loss), respectively. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was 1.9% (provision on a loss) and 2018 was 5.0% (benefit on a loss), respectively.

For the three and 0.4% (provision on a loss), respectively. Fornine months ended September 30, 2020 and the three months ended September 30, 2019, and 2018, the effective tax rate differsdiffered from the United States federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to net changes in valuation allowances for the periods.period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the effective tax rate differsdiffered from the United States federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions (further describeddiscussed below) and net changes in valuation allowances for the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the effective tax rate differs from the United States federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to net changes in valuation allowances for the periods.

We have provided a valuation allowance for certain of our net deferred tax assets as a result of our inability to generate consistent net operating profits in certain jurisdictions in which we operate. As such, any benefitcertain benefits from deferred taxes in any of the periods presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements hashave been fully offset by changes in the valuation allowance for the related net deferred tax assets. We continue to assess our future taxable income by jurisdiction based on our recent historical operating results, the expected timing of reversal of temporary differences, various tax planning strategies that we may be able to enact in future periods, the impact of potential operating changes on our business and 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.

At December 31, 2018, our ExOne GmbH (2010-2013) and ExOne Property GmbH (2013) subsidiaries were under examination by local taxing authorities in Germany. In January 2019, this examination was concluded by the local taxing authorities in Germany without significant adjustment to previously established tax positions. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded a reversal of certain of our previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions of $1,075, of which $257 was offset against net operating loss carryforwards.

Restructuring

In August 2018, we committed to a plan to consolidate certain of our 3D printing operations from our Houston, Texas facility into our Troy, Michigan facility. These actions were taken as part of our efforts to optimize our business model and maximize our facility utilization. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded a charge of $28 split between cost of sales ($15) and selling, general and administrative expense ($13) associated with involuntary employee terminations related to this plan. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded an additional charge of $1 (to cost of sales) associated with asset impairments related to this plan. There are no additional charges expected to be incurred associated with this plan in future periods. We settled all amounts associated with involuntary employee terminations during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

The consolidation of our 3D printing operations from our Houston, Texas facility into our Troy, Michigan facility is expected to result in a reduction in our annual revenues of approximately $1,400. Revenues associated with our Houston, Texas facility were $153 and $944 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018. We expect annualized cost savings related to this consolidation of approximately $1,800, with approximately $1,600 in the form of cash cost savings (principally employee-related and other operating costs) and approximately $200 in the form of reduced depreciation expense. Cost savings associated with the exit of this facility are expected to benefit cost of sales by approximately $1,600 and selling, general and administrative expenses by approximately $200. We expect to invest these cost savings into technological or process advancements that support either long-term cost benefits or revenue growth.

In September 2019, we reached agreement with a third party for the sale of certain property and equipment ($822 included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet for each of the periods presented) associated with the former Houston, Texas facility. We expect to receive net proceeds from the sale of the property and equipment of approximately $1,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2019 and to record a corresponding gain on the sale of approximately $200 from the disposal.

In December 2017, we committed to a plan to consolidate certain of our 3D printing operations from our Desenzano del Garda, Italy facility into our Gersthofen, Germany facility. These actions were taken as part of our efforts to optimize our business model and maximize our facility utilization. As a result of these actions, during the three months ended December 31, 2017, we recorded a charge of $72 split between cost of sales ($19) and selling, general and administrative expense ($53) associated with involuntary employee terminations related to this plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recorded an additional charge of $245 associated with other exit costs ($17) and asset impairments ($228) related to this plan. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded an additional charge of $13 associated with asset impairments related to this plan. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a gain from disposal of certain property and equipment of $51 (recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss). Charges associated with other exit costs recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2018 were recorded to cost of sales in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss. Charges associated with asset impairments recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were recorded to cost of sales as a component of depreciation expense in the accompanying condensed statement of consolidated operations and comprehensive loss. Other exit costs relate to the remaining facility rent due under a non-cancellable operating lease following the cessation of operations at the facility in January 2018. Asset impairment charges relate to certain leasehold improvements associated with the exited facility and other equipment which we abandoned. There are no additional charges expected to be incurred associated with this plan in future periods. We settled all amounts associated with involuntary employee terminations and other exit costs (remaining facility rent payments) during 2018.

The consolidation of our 3D printing operations from our Desenzano del Garda, Italy facility into our Gersthofen, Germany facility is not expected to have a significant impact on our revenues in future periods. We expect annualized cost savings related to this consolidation of approximately $875, with approximately $600 in the form of cash cost savings (principally employee-related and other operating costs) and approximately $275 in the form of reduced depreciation expense. Cost savings associated with the exit of this facility are expected to benefit cost of sales by approximately $625 and selling, general and administrative expenses by approximately $250. We expect to invest these cost savings into technological or process advancements that support either long-term cost benefits or revenue growth.

Impairment

During the three months ended September 30, 2019,2020, 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 and used at the asset group level. Assessing the recoverability of long-lived assets held and used requires significant judgments and estimates by management.

26


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 and used, we determined the carrying amount of long-lived assets held and used 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 and used, 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 and used 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 and used, resultingwhich could result in a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

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, weWe incurred a net loss of $4,844$3,273 and $13,129$10,944 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019,2020, respectively. At September 30, 2019,2020, we had $4,756$39,428 in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. In addition to our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, we also have access to additional capital through our $10,000 related party revolving credit facility (further discussed below).

WeSince our inception we have received cumulative unrestricted net proceeds from the sale of our common stock (through our initial public offering and subsequent secondarypublic offerings, including at-the-market offerings) of $168,361$195,847 to fund our operations. We maintain additional access to capital through our active shelf registration statement which allows for the sale of various equity or debt instruments up to an aggregate amount of $125,000 (including the at-the-market offerings further described below).

In March 2018,June 2020, we entered into an equity distribution agreement (the “Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Oppenheimer & Company, Inc. (“Oppenheimer”) pursuant to which Oppenheimer agreed to act as sales agent in the sale of up to $25,000 in the aggregate of our common stock in “at-the-market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Sales of common stock under the Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement ended in September 2020 when the offering limit ($25,000) was reached. Following completion of this offering, in September 2020, we entered into a three-year, $15,000 revolving credit facilityseparate equity distribution agreement (the “Canaccord Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Canaccord Genuity LLC (“Canaccord”), pursuant to which Canaccord agreed to act as sales agent in the sale of up to $25,000 in the aggregate of our common stock in “at-the-market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The terms of both the Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement and the Canaccord Equity Distribution Agreement require a related party (further described below)3.0% commission on the sale of our common stock as well as reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by the sales agent.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we sold 2,060,878 shares of common stock in the above-described at-the market offerings (1,822,274 shares under the Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement and 238,604 shares under the Canaccord Equity Distribution Agreement) at an average selling price of $12.26 per share, resulting in net proceeds to provide additional funding for working capitalus (after deducting commissions) of $24,512. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we sold 2,443,479 shares of common stock in the above-described at-the-market offerings (2,204,875 shares under the Oppenheimer Equity Distribution Agreement and general corporate purposes.238,604 shares under the Canaccord Equity Distribution Agreement) at an average selling price of $11.73 per share, resulting in net proceeds to us (after deducting commissions) of $27,800.  During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we incurred expenses (other than commissions) associated with at-the-market offerings of $124 and $314, respectively. At September 30, 2019, $13,0002020, $213 of the expenses (other than commissions) associated with at-the-market offerings remained availableunpaid, of which $147 was included in accounts payable and $66 was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

27


There have been no sales of shares of common stock in at-the-market offerings subsequent to September 30, 2020. Future sales of securities in at-the-market offerings and under our active shelf registration statement, if any, are dependent on market conditions, which may restrict the related party revolving credit facility. timing and extent of any future offering of securities by us.

In June 2018,addition to net proceeds from the sale of our common stock, on April 18, 2020, we initiatedreceived additional unrestricted cash proceeds of $2,194 in connection with a Paycheck Protection Program loan (further discussed below).

We have previously exhibited our ability to modify our operating structure and support our liquidity position through various restructuring and other actions, including our 2018 global cost realignment program focused onprogram. As further discussed above, in response to adverse market conditions associated with COVID-19, beginning in March 2020 and through April 2020, we commenced various cost savings actions including a reductionmix of employee terminations, furloughs and pay rate reductions, as well as reductions in our production overhead costsconsulting and operatingother expenses, all in an effort to drive efficiency in our operationsconserve cash and preserve capital.maintain adequate liquidity.  

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 (in addition to the costs savings measures associated with our 2018 global cost realignment programthose further describeddiscussed above). We may also seek to raise additional capital to support our growth through the incurrence of additional debt, the sale of equity or other alternatives (including asset sales) or a combination thereof.thereof.

Related Party Revolving Credit Facility

On March 12, 2018, we and our ExOne Americas LLC and ExOne GmbH subsidiaries, as guarantors (collectively, the “Loan Parties”), entered into a Credit Agreement and related ancillary agreements with LBM Holdings, LLC (“LBM”), a company controlled by S. Kent Rockwell, who was ourthe Executive Chairman of the Company (a related party) at such date and is currently Chairman of our Board of Directors (the “Board”),the Company, relating to a $15,000 revolving credit facility (the “LBM Credit“Credit Agreement”) to provide additional funding to us for working capital and general corporate purposes. The LBM Credit Agreement providesprovided a credit facility for a term of three years (through March 12, 2021) and bears, bearing interest at a rate of one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 500 basis points (7.0%(6.8% at December 31, 2019 and 7.5%5.1% at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively)2020). The LBM Credit Agreement requiresrequired a commitment fee of 75 basis points, or 0.75%, on the unused portion of the facility, payable monthly in arrears. In addition, an up-front commitment fee of 125 basis points, or 1.25% ($188), was required at closing. Borrowings under the LBM Credit Agreement were collateralized by the accounts receivable, inventories and machinery and equipment of the Loan Parties.

On February 18, 2020, the Loan Parties and LBM entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) which (i) reduced the available capacity under the revolving credit facility to $10,000, (ii) extended the term of the credit facility until March 31, 2024, (iii) increased the commitment fee to 100 basis points, or 1.00%, on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility, and (iv) provided a process for the replacement of the LIBOR index after 2021. In addition, the accounts receivable of ExOne GmbH no longer serve as collateral for borrowings under the amended revolving credit facility.

Borrowings under the credit facility are required to be made in minimum increments of $1,000. We may terminate or reduce the credit commitment at any time during the term of the LBMamended Credit Agreement without penalty. We may also make prepayments against outstanding borrowings under the LBMamended Credit Agreement at any time without penalty. Borrowings under the LBM Credit Agreement have been collateralized by the accounts receivable, inventories and machinery and equipment of the Loan Parties. At inceptionDecember 31, 2019 and September 30, 20192020, the total estimated value of collateral was in significant excess of the maximum borrowing capacity under the LBM Credit Agreement.credit facility.

The LBMamended Credit Agreement contains several affirmative covenants including prompt payment of liabilities and taxes; maintenance of insurance, properties, and licenses; and compliance with laws. The LBMamended Credit Agreement also contains several negative covenants including restricting the incurrence of certain additional debt; prohibiting future liens (other than permitted liens); prohibiting investment in third parties; limiting the ability to pay dividends; limiting mergers, acquisitions, and dispositions; and limiting the sale of certain property and equipment of the Loan Parties. The LBMamended Credit Agreement does not contain any financial

We do not consider the Credit Agreement, as amended, indicative of a fair market value lending, as LBM was determined to be a related party based on common control by S. Kent Rockwell. Accordingly, we do not considerS. Kent Rockwell is the LBM Credit Agreement indicativeindirect sole owner of a fair market value lending. LBM. Prior to execution, each of the LBM Credit Agreement and the Amendment was reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), in accordance with The ExOne Company Policy and Procedures with Respect to Related Person Transactions, and subsequently by a sub-committee of independent members of the Board.Board. At the time of execution of the LBM Credit Agreement, the $15,000 in available loan proceeds waswere deposited into an escrow account with an unrelated, third party financial institution acting as escrow agent pursuant to a separate Escrow Agreementescrow agreement by and among the parties. Loan proceeds held in escrow are available to us upon our submission to the escrow agent of a loan request. Such proceeds will not be available to LBM until payment in-full of the obligations under the LBMamended Credit Agreement and termination of the LBMamended Credit Agreement. Payments of principal and other obligations will be made to the escrow agent, while interest payments will be made directly to LBM. Provided there exists no potential default or event of default, the LBMamended Credit Agreement and Escrow Agreementthe escrow agreement prohibit any acceleration of repayment of any amount outstanding under the LBMamended Credit Agreement and prohibit termination of the LBMamended Credit Agreement or withdrawal from escrow of any unused portion of the available loan proceedsproceeds.

There were no borrowings under the credit facility by LBM.

Duringduring the three or nine months ended September 30, 2019, we borrowed $2,000 under the LBM Credit Agreement which remained outstanding at September 30,2020 or 2019. There were no borrowings outstanding under the credit facility at either September 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $8 and $28, respectively, associated with the commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility were included in accounts payable on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Amounts payable to LBM at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were settled by us in October 2020 and January 2020, respectively.

Paycheck Protection Program

On April 18, 2020, we entered into an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) with an unrelated United States bank (the “Lender”) reflecting a loan in the principal amount of $2,194 (the “Loan”). The Loan was granted pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) administered by the United States Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Loan bears interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum and matures on April 18, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”). Principal and interest payments on the Loan are deferred until November 18, 2020, at which time equal installments of principal and interest will be due and payable monthly through the Maturity Date. The Note may be prepaid by us at any time prior to maturity without penalty. If we default on the Note, the Lender may, at its option, accelerate the maturity of our obligations under the LBM Credit Agreement during any period priorNote.

Pursuant to the three months ended September 30, 2019 fromterms of the PPP, the Loan, or a portion thereof, may be forgiven if Loan proceeds are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act, such as payroll costs, costs used to continue group health care benefits, mortgage interest payments, rent and utilities. We intend to use all or a significant majority of the Loan proceeds for qualifying expenses. The terms of the Loan, including eligibility and forgiveness, may be subject to further requirements in regulations and guidance adopted by the SBA, including the Paycheck Protection Flexibility Act enacted in June 2020. We have elected to account for the Loan in accordance with the terms of the Note while its inception (March 12, 2018).forgiveness eligibility remains subject to review.

Net cash used for operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 was $4,196,$12,615, compared with net cash used for operating activities of $8,889$4,323 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.2019. The increase in net decrease incash outflows of $4,693 $8,292 was due principally to a decreasean unfavorable change in our net loss (changes further described above) net of noncash items and a net decrease in working capital attributable to a decrease in net cash inflows from customers (principally due to the timing of cash collections on 3D printing machine sales) and an increase in net cash outflows related to inventory production of our 3D printing machines and the timing of payments to our suppliers and vendors for our production and operating expenses.  The unfavorable change in net working capital was partially offset by a decrease in net loss (net of noncash items).

We expect to maintain a balanced net working capital position for the remainder of 2020, with a targeted reduction in inventories consistent with our revised production plans which are expected to offset lower commercial activity (customer prepayments) stemming from the impact of COVID-19.

Investing Activities

Net cash used forprovided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 was $610,$15,457, compared with net cash used for investing activities of $1,115$610 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.2019.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net cash provided by investing activities included $16,229 in proceeds from the sale of property and equipment, including the sale-leaseback of our European headquarters and operating facility in Gersthofen, Germany.

29


Activity for both periods included cash outflows for capital expenditures (consistent with our operating plans), offset by proceeds from the sale of property and equipment..

We expect our remaining 20192020 capital expenditures to be limited to spending associated with sustaining our existing operations and strategic asset acquisition and deployment (additional estimated spending of approximately less than $500)$1,000, which reflects a reduced spending target as part of our capital conservation plans in response to COVID-19 and its effect on our operations).

In September 2019, we reached agreement with a third party for the sale of certain property and equipment associated with the former Houston, Texas facility. We expect to receive net proceeds from the sale of the property and equipment of approximately $1,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2019.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 was $2,100,$30,556, compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $137$2,100 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.2019.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities included cash inflows of $27,699 in proceeds from at-the-market offerings of common stock, net of issuance costs (further discussed above) and $2,194 in proceeds from borrowings on long-term debt associated with our PPP Loan (further discussed above).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities included cash inflows of $2,000 associated with borrowings under our related party revolving credit facility and $289facility.

Activity for both periods included cash inflows associated with proceeds from the exercise of stock options by employees.employees and cash outflows associated with principal payments on outstanding debt.

Financial Condition

The following summarizes the material changes in our financial condition from December 31, 2019 to September 30, 2020:

Restricted cash decreased by $470 following an amendment to our credit facility agreement with a German bank completed in February 2020 which relieved us of a cash collateral requirement for financial guarantees and letters of credit issued by us for commercial transactions requiring security for amounts up to approximately $1,200.

Accounts receivable decreased by $982 based on the timing of cash payments by customers (principally the timing of cash collections on 3D printing machine sales).

Inventories increased by $2,417 consistent with our growth in backlog. Inventories have also been impacted (primarily the increase in finished goods inventories) as a result of disruptions in delivery and installation of our 3D printing machines as a result of COVID-19.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased by $1,666, mostly due to increases in prepayments to suppliers for 3D printing machine components and subassemblies, and prepaid insurance (based on the timing of payments to providers as compared to the period of coverage).

Property and equipment – net decreased by $17,971, mostly due to the impact of the sale-leaseback of our European headquarters and operating facility in Gersthofen, Germany (which resulted in a derecognition of $17,282 of related property and equipment) and depreciation expense of $2,925 incurred during the period. These amountsdecreases were offset by cash outflows of $111 in principal payments on long-term debt and $68increases associated with taxes relatedcapital expenditure additions of $885 and net transfers from inventory to property and equipment of 3D printing machines of $1,337.

Operating lease right-of-use assets increased by $3,846, principally as a result of the sale-leaseback transaction further discussed above.

Accounts payable decreased by $1,373 due to the net settlementtiming of equity-based awards.payments to our suppliers and vendors for our production and operating expenses.

ForAccrued expenses and other current liabilities decreased by $1,779, mostly due to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net cash provided by financing activities included cash inflowssale-leaseback transaction further discussed above based on the release of $521 associated with proceeds$2,243 of a deposit liability received from the exercisebuyer in December 2019.

Operating lease liabilities increased $3,846, principally as a result of stock optionsthe sale-leaseback transaction further discussed above.

Contract liabilities increased $756 based on the timing of cash payments by employees. This amount was offset bycustomers (principally the timing of cash outflowscollections on 3D printing machine sales consistent with growth in our backlog). Contract liabilities have also been impacted as a result of $106disruptions in principal payments on long-term debtdelivery and $265 in debt issuance costs associated withinstallation of our related party revolving credit facility.3D printing machines as a result of COVID-19.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Item 4.     Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and proceduresprocedures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2019. Thesethe end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as a result of certain material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting (further discussed below), our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance thatwere ineffective. 

In connection with the information required to be disclosed inpreparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarizedthree and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated tonine months ended September 30, 2020, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that there are material weaknesses in the design and operating effectiveness of our disclosure controlsinternal control over financial reporting as defined in Securities and proceduresExchange Commission Regulation S-X. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

A description of the identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting is as follows:

-

We did not maintain adequate control over user access rights for a significant information technology system.

-

We did not maintain adequate control over application changes for a significant information technology system.

-

We did not maintain adequate control over pricing and discounts associated with sales of certain of our products.

Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses described above, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of September 30, 2019 were effective.operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

ThereDuring the three months ended September 30, 2020, as a result of the identification in earlier periods of the material weaknesses described above, management continued the execution of its remediation plans in an effort to ensure that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Our remediation plans include a comprehensive evaluation of the people, processes and systems responsible for each of the underlying control activities. We expect to complete this evaluation in 2020 and put measures in place in an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2020, we increased the size and capabilities of our finance and accounting functions by establishing a new Corporate Controller role with responsibility for financial reporting, corporate accounting and oversight of our consolidated financial close process. In September 2020, we hired a financial professional with significant public accounting and financial reporting experience to fill this newly established Corporate Controller role. We expect that the hiring of this Corporate Controller will facilitate the effective execution of our remediation plans and improve our internal controls over financial reporting. However, we cannot be certain that the measures we may take will ensure that we establish and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future or that material weaknesses identified will be remediated.

Other than the items described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2019,2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.     Legal Proceedings.

We 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. 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 our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A.     Risk Factors.

We face risks related to the COVID-19 global pandemic which could significantly disrupt our commercial activities and operations.

The outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirusand subsequent global pandemic (“COVID-19”) has resulted in global government-enforced travel and business closures throughout the world. Our sales, installation and service of 3D printing machines have been disrupted, and the future spread of the disease may cause our commercial efforts to be disrupted again. We may incur expenses or delays resulting from such events outside of our control, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We manufacture our 3D printing machines at our facilities in Gersthofen, Germany and North Huntingdon, Pennsylvania. In addition, we have a network of EACs in the United States, Germany and Japan. If the operations of one or more of these facilities are materially disrupted (including as a result of COVID-19), we may be unable to fulfill certain customer orders for the period of the disruption, we may not be able to recognize revenue on certain orders and we might need to modify our standard sales terms to secure commitments of customers during the period of the disruption and perhaps longer. Depending on the cause of the disruption, we could incur significant costs to remedy the disruption. Such a disruption could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In addition to the commercial risks, the long-term effects of COVID-19 may also include risks associated with employee health and safety and supply chain disruption, each of which may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

There have been no material changes from the risk factors as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019, except as described above.

Item 2.     Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Compensation Committee of the Board may require or permit participants under the Plan to elect net settlement upon the vesting of restricted stock awards under the Plan in order to satisfy the related tax withholding obligations.  Under net settlement, we withhold from the shares that would otherwise be delivered to the participant such number of shares of our common stock having an aggregate fair market value equal to the tax withholding obligation. When we withhold these shares, we are required to remit to the appropriate taxing authorities the aggregate fair market value of the shares withheld, which could be deemed a purchase of the common shares by us on the date of withholding.

A summary of our deemed repurchases of shares of our common stock to satisfy tax withholding obligations related to the vesting of restricted stock, as described above, during the three months ended September 30, 2020 is as follows:
