Exhibit 99.1
Sigma Labs Announces Second Quarter Financial Results
SANTA FE, N.M. – August 7, 2015 – Sigma Labs, Inc. (OTCQB: SGLB) (“Sigma Labs” or the “Company”), a developer of advanced, in process, non-destructive quality inspection systems for metal-based additive manufacturing (“AM”) and other advanced manufacturing technologies, today announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.
Recent Highlights
| · | Posted revenue of approximately $0.2 million for the quarter, versus approximately $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2014; revenue in the second quarter of 2015 was negatively impacted by certain delayed orders, but growth is expected to accelerate in the second half of 2015 |
| · | Formed a joint venture, Arete-Sigma LLC, that now serves as a comprehensive metal solutions provider for the burgeoning AM market. The entity is led by Bill Herman, President of Arete Innovative Solutions, who was previously Vice President of Operations of Morris Technologies |
| · | Co-Presented with Honeywell at the RAPID 2015 Conference in Long Beach, California. Attended by approximately 200 industry and government participants, the presentation highlighted aerospace applications using Sigma Labs' PrintRite3D® DEFORM™ software for 3D printing |
| · | Secured first order for Sigma Labs’ upcoming DEFORM™ software as part of an order from Honeywell for the Company’s PrintRite3D® applications; the contract, including a year of software support, service and maintenance, is for Honeywell’s AM development facility in Phoenix |
| · | Today announced the hiring of Ronald K. Fisher, who will become Sigma Labs’ Vice President of Business Development effective August 10, 2015. Mr. Fisher will focus on managing and expanding the Company’s PrintRite3D® business, increasing top line growth |
| · | As previously announced, Sigma Labs will host the Fall Meeting of Edison Welding Institute's Additive Manufacturing Consortium October 28-29, 2015 to showcase its technologies and manufacturing capability |
“Sigma Labs noted some significant achievements this quarter, although revenue was less than anticipated due to delays with respect to our contract with GE Aviation as part of the America Makes program,” said Mark Cola, President and CEO of Sigma Labs. “This $500,000 award is now moving forward, and we are optimistic about seeing a portion of this revenue bolster our growth in the second half of 2015. At the same time, I’m very pleased to announce the hiring of Ron Fisher as Sigma Labs’ Vice President of Business Development. Ron brings over 20 years’ experience and leadership in program management, engineering, sales and marketing from a variety of manufacturing institutions including Swagelok and Micro-Poise Measurement Systems. At Sigma Labs, Ron will be responsible for the sales and administration of everything related to PrintRite3D®.
“With Ron’s addition, and with Bill Herman heading up our contract manufacturing operations under our new joint venture, the Company is in a better position to demonstrate its full capabilities and accelerate top line growth. We’ve also contracted some additional staff to finalize our ground-breaking DEFORM™ application, which we now expect to be commercially available by October 2015. So while we’ve faced some unfortunate delays recently, Sigma Labs is actually on better footing than ever to execute its expansion plans and drive towards profitability. I’m excited about what the future holds for the Company.”
