ROCK HILL, South Carolina – October 29, 2013 – 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE: DDD) announced today that its third quarter revenue grew 50% from the prior year to a record $135.7 million on a 76% increase in printers’ and other products revenue and 30% overall organic growth, resulting in GAAP earnings of $0.17 per share and non-GAAP earnings of $0.26 per share.

Gross profit increased 52% and gross profit margin expanded 80 basis points to 52.6%, contributing to GAAP net income of $17.7 million, and non-GAAP net income of $26.2 million, representing a 44% improvement over the 2012 quarter.

For the nine months 2013, revenue grew 42% to $358.6 million, on an 81% increase in printers and other products revenue and 27% organic growth, resulting in GAAP earnings of $0.34 per share and non-GAAP earnings of $0.66 per share. Gross profit increased 46% and gross profit margin expanded 120 basis points to 52.3%.

“We are very pleased to report another record revenue quarter on unprecedented printer units demand that more than tripled last year’s unit sales,” said Avi Reichental, 3D Systems’ President and Chief Executive Officer. “Stronger materials sales, increased advanced manufacturing activities and meaningful consumer products revenue contribution fueled our growth.”

Third Quarter 2013 Revenue Highlights (compared to 2012 quarter):
• 3D printers and other products revenue increased 76% to $59.8 million.
• Print materials revenue grew 30% to $33.2 million.
• Services revenue rose 38% to $42.7 million.
• Healthcare revenue grew 39% and contributed $16.9 million to our total revenue.
• Consumer solutions contributed $13.5 million to our total revenue.

The company continued to increase its R&D and marketing expenditures, making investments in support of its near term opportunities and expanding product portfolio. For the third quarter in a row, the company expanded its manufacturing capacity to accommodate increasing demand for its products and services.

“We are accelerating developments of key products, channels and technologies to capture a broader share of upstream production applications and downstream consumer opportunities,” continued Reichental.”

To accelerate its growth rate, the company decided to further increase its R&D, marketing and retail field operations spending in connection with specific, near-term, new product introductions and retail channel expansion. Significant marketplace interest in its recently acquired, proprietary, Phenix direct metals 3D printers also compelled the company to accelerate new products development and capacity investments. As a result, the company updated its annual guidance for the full year 2013, increasing its revenue guidance to be in the range of $500 million to $530 million and, consistent with the step up in discretionary spending, reducing its non-GAAP earnings per share guidance to be in the range of $0.93 to $1.03.

“For the next few periods we are going for accelerated market-share expansion ahead of earnings per share. We believe that our portfolio’s diversity, ranging from direct metal printers at the high end to desktop consumer printers at the low end, is best positioned to capture this unprecedented market opportunity, and expect that our decisive actions will extend our first mover advantage in key verticals. With the fundamentals of our business model remaining intact, we fully expect that the higher investments we are making currently will favorably influence our results in the coming periods,” concluded Reichental.
