"We are pleased that sales of systems and materials rebounded somewhat during the quarter amidst a continued challenging operating environment world-wide," said Abe Reichental, 3D Systems' President and Chief Executive Officer.
"We believe that our ability to deliver improved net income on lower revenue that was derived from a higher portion of 3-D printers, demonstrates the leverage we achieved from the cost reductions and productivity improvements we implemented over the past 24 months," continued Reichental.
Systems revenue increased sequentially by $0.9 million but declined to $6.8 million compared to the third quarter of 2008. 3-D Printer sales accounted for nearly half of all systems revenue, reflecting the first full-quarter revenue contribution of V-Flash(R) Desktop Printers and sustained demand for our expanded family of ProJet(TM) Professional Printers.
Materials sales grew by $1.4 million sequentially, indicating a modest recovery across the installed base, but were 20% below the third quarter of 2008. Integrated materials contributed $0.5 million to the sequential quarterly growth.
Service revenue rose sequentially by 8% but at $7.7 million for the quarter was lower than comparable 2008 quarterly revenue reflecting the cumulative impact of the trailing 12-month decline in large-frame systems revenue on recurring maintenance and warranty revenue. These declines began during the first quarter of 2008.
Notwithstanding its 14% lower service revenue, the company reported that service gross profit margin rose 21 percentage points to 48% over the comparable 2008 period, reflecting the results of continued quality improvements. Gross profit for services was $3.7 million, an increase of $1.3 million over the third quarter of 2008.
"We are pleased that during a most challenging operating period, we were able to continue to strengthen our balance sheet and get our house in order operationally and financially," added Reichental. "Our current financial strength and flexibility, as reflected by our debt-free balance sheet and sustained cash position, enabled us to begin to pursue new organic and acquisition-related growth initiatives.
"We expect to benefit competitively from our expanding products and services portfolio that now includes 3Dproparts(TM), the world's largest Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing parts service. We remain confident in our ability to execute on our strategic plans and provide value to our customers and stockholders," concluded Reichental.
