3D Systems Announces Improved Operating Results in Second Quarter
and First Six Months of 2004
VALENCIA, California, August 4, 2004 - 3D Systems Corporation (Nasdaq: TDSC) announced today improved operating results for its second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004.
The company reported higher revenue, an improved gross profit margin and lower operating expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 2004. The company also reported a modest operating profit for the second quarter of 2004 and a sharply reduced operating loss for the six-month period compared to the corresponding 2003 periods.
Aided by sales of new products, revenues increased 3.8% to $27.9 million in the second quarter of 2004 from $26.9 million in the second quarter of 2003. Revenues for the first half of 2004 increased 15.1% to $57.4 million from $49.9 million last year, representing the highest first-half revenues in the company’s history. Foreign exchange translation effects added $0.9 million and $2.8 million to revenue in the second quarter and first half, respectively.
The relatively slower rate of growth in revenue for the second quarter compared to the first six months of 2004 arose from a decline in systems revenue in the second quarter that partially offset higher revenue in the quarter from materials and services. Systems revenue increased 14.3% during the first half of 2004 despite a 12.6% decline during the second quarter that arose from lower unit sales for mature systems, which partially offset stronger performance by these systems in the first quarter of 2004.
Increases in new product revenue, led by unit sales of the company’s new InVision™ 3-D printers and recently introduced materials, contributed $2.6 million to product revenues during the second quarter, partially offsetting the decline from mature systems discussed above. New product sales contributed $4.5 million to revenue in the first six months of the year.
Materials revenue increased 10.7% and 13.7%, and service revenue increased 16.0% and 17.1%, in the second quarter and first half, respectively.
“Despite the decline in sales of mature systems, the InVision™ 3-D printer showed encouraging sales results,” said Abe Reichental, 3D Systems’ president and chief executive officer. “In the second quarter of 2004, as part of our disciplined strategy to improve operating results over time, we ceased offering customers large quarter-end discounts to promote the sale of mature systems. In the absence of this change, systems’ revenues likely would have been higher in this year’s second quarter compared to the second quarter of 2003. While the implementation of this strategy adversely impacted revenue in the quarter, it contributed to our higher gross profit margin in the 2004 periods. While this change in marketing approach might continue to adversely impact systems revenue in future quarters, we believe that it will ultimately prove to be beneficial by reducing the proportion of the company’s system sales that are made in the last month of each quarter and by improving gross profit margins.”
Gross profit and gross profit margin improved in both the second quarter and first six months of 2004 compared to the 2003 periods. Gross profit increased to $12.3 million, or 44.1% of revenue for the 2004 quarter from $10.7 million or 39.8% of revenue for the second quarter of 2003. For the six-month period, gross profit increased to $24.3 million or 42.4% of revenue from $18.1 million or 36.3% of revenue for the first six months of 2003.
The 6.1 percentage point increase in gross profit margin for the first six months of 2004 resulted from improved profit margins for both products and services. Service margins benefited globally from lower warranty costs and greater performance efficiencies while product margin increases were slightly offset with production ramp-up costs associated with new products. Foreign currency translation had a $0.4 million favorable
effect on gross profit margin in the second quarter and a $1.2 million favorable effect in the first six months.
Operating expenses also declined in the second quarter and first six-months of 2004 compared to the 2003 periods. For the second quarter, operating expenses declined by 11.4% to $12.2 million from $13.7 million last year, and for the six-month period, operating expenses declined by 8.8% to $25.4 million from $27.9 million for the first half of 2003.
The declines in operating expenses in the 2004 periods arose primarily from lower legal fees in the second quarter; lower expenses for the company’s medical benefit program, including in the second quarter the reversal of $0.4 million in reserves for future claims under its previously self-insured medical program; lower depreciation and amortization expense and lower accounting and professional fees. Foreign currency translation had the effect of increasing operating expenses by $0.2 million in the second quarter and by $0.7 million in the first six months of 2004.
Net loss available to common stockholders narrowed to $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2004 from $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2003. For the first six months of 2004, net loss available to common stockholders narrowed to $3.8 million from $19.9 million in the first half of 2003.
The first-half loss in 2003 included the $7.0 million cumulative effect of the two previously disclosed changes in accounting principles that the company adopted at the end of 2003. As a result of the adoption of those two changes in accounting principles, the company restated its operating results for the second quarter and first six months of 2003. This restatement had the effect of increasing cost of sales by $0.1 million in the second quarter and $0.2 million in the first six months of 2003 and of increasing selling, general and administrative expenses by $1.2 million in the second quarter and $2.1 million in the second half of 2003, with corresponding increases in the company’s loss in each 2003 period.
“We believe that the improved operating results thus far in 2004 validate the soundness of concentrating on creating value for our customers,” said Reichental. “Dozens of company-wide initiatives that we are pursuing under our strategic roadmap are focused on new product and new service offerings, improved customer service and
operational excellence. While we expect the implementation during the next several months of our recently announced outsourcing of system-assembly operations, which is one such initiative, to slow down further improvement in our operating results in the short term, we expect to see noticeable improvements in 2005 in profit margins, cash flow and reduced inventory investment.”
Unrestricted cash at the end of the second quarter of 2004 was $20.0 million, a decline of $2.9 million during the quarter. Some $3.2 million of cash was used during the quarter to fund higher inventory levels, primarily in connection with the timing of the commercialization of the InVision™ HR 3-D printer and the Sinterstation® HiQ™ SLS® systems that the company introduced late in the second quarter and early in the third quarter of 2004.
“We expect this increase in inventory to be reversed by sales of these two new systems in the third quarter,” added Reichental. “The reversal of this temporary increase in inventory should be further bolstered later this year and early in 2005 by cash provided from inventory reductions associated with the outsourcing of the assembly of our systems. While we do not currently expect to make any borrowings under it, our recently concluded $15 million revolving credit agreement provides additional liquidity.
“The new management team that we started assembling nine months ago, which is enhanced with the recent addition of Assad Ansari as vice president of engineering, is gratified with the progress we have made thus far. We are energetically continuing to put in place and to execute on the building blocks needed to close the gap between the company’s performance and our goals. We believe that our leading industry position and technology, our healthy pipeline of new growth opportunities and our clear priorities will produce measurable value for our customers, stockholders and employees. We also recognize that much more work needs to be done to rebuild the company’s product lines, reduce expenses and restore the company to profitability,” concluded Reichental.
3D Systems will discuss its operating results for the second quarter and first half of 2004 on a conference call and audio webcast to be held at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time (6:00 a.m. Pacific Time) today. Details are set forth below.

MJM technology is the basis of our affordable three-dimensional solutions for printing any three-dimensional part from digital data.
• Stereolithography or SLA® systems use a laser to convert photosensitive resins into solid cross-sections, layer by layer, until the desired objects are complete. SLA® systems are capable of making multiple parts at the same time and are designed to produce prototype or end use parts that have a wide range of sizes and shapes.
• Selective Laser Sintering or SLS® systems use heat from a laser to melt and fuse, or sinter, powdered materials into solid cross-sections, layer-by-layer, until the desired parts are complete. SLS® systems can create parts from a variety of plastic and metal powders and are capable of processing multiple parts within the same build cycle.
• Materials. We blend, market and distribute materials under a variety of brand names that we sell for use in all of our solid imaging systems. These families of engineered products are designed for use with our systems and processes to produce high-quality models, prototypes and parts. We market our stereolithography products under the Accura® brand, selective laser sintering products under the DuraForm®, LaserFormä and CastFormä brands, and multi-jet modeling products under the ThermoJet® and VisiJet® brands. We also distribute Somos® resins and Dreve hearing aid resins for the SLA® systems.
• Software. We provide our customers proprietary part-preparation software for personal computers and engineering workstations. Our proprietary software package generates the information to be used by the SLS® and SLA® systems or MJM system to create the solid images. In addition, we team up with other software companies, where appropriate, to develop complementary software for our systems.
• Services. We provide a comprehensive suite of services and field support to our customers ranging from applications development to installation, warranty and maintenance services.
Broad Applications and End-Uses:
• Concept modeling, three-dimensional printing: Solid imaging solutions are used for concept-modeling and three-dimensional printing applications, to produce three-dimensional shapes, primarily for visualizing and communicating mechanical design applications, as well as for other applications including supply-chain management, architecture, art, surgical medicine, marketing and entertainment.
• Rapid prototyping: Solid imaging solutions are used for rapid prototyping applications, including the generation of product concept models, functional prototypes and master-casting and tooling patterns that are often used as an efficient, cost-effective means of evaluating product designs.
• Instant manufacturing: Solid imaging solutions are used for instant manufacturing applications to manufacture end-use parts directly from a digital image. Our instant manufacturing customers produce end-use parts without the need for expensive tooling or molds and without lengthy set-ups, resulting in significant flexibility and mass customization capabilities.
