3D Systems Reports Record Revenue/Earnings

VALENCIA, Calif.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—March 2, 2006— 3D Systems Corporation (Nasdaq: TDSC), a leading provider of rapid 3-D printing, prototyping and manufacturing solutions, announced today record revenue and net earnings for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2005.

For the quarter:

-- Revenue rose 15% to $44.1 million from $38.3 million in the 2004 quarter.

-- Operating income rose 3% to $4.5 million from $4.4 million in 2004.

-- Net income available to common stockholders rose to $6.0 million from $3.1 million in the 2004 quarter.

-- A $2.5 million non-cash tax benefit in the fourth quarter discussed below helped to increase net income available to common stockholders for the quarter and the full year. Another special item that affected the fourth quarter and the full year was the offsetting $1.2 million of relocation costs that we incurred in the fourth quarter related to our plans to move our headquarters to Rock Hill, South Carolina. The net effect of these two items accounted for $1.3 million or $0.06 per diluted share of the increase in net income available to common stockholders for the fourth quarter.

-- Diluted EPS rose to $0.32 per share compared to $0.20 per share in the 2004 quarter.

For the full year:

-- Revenue rose 11% to $139.7 million from $125.4 million in 2004.

-- Operating income rose 67% to $9.3 million from $5.6 million in 2004.

-- Net income available to common stockholders increased eight-fold to $8.4 million from $1.0 million in 2004.

-- The net effect of the $2.5 million non-cash tax benefit mentioned above and the offsetting $1.2 million of relocation costs mentioned above accounted for $1.3 million or $0.08 per diluted share of the increase in net income available to common stockholders for the full year.

-- Diluted EPS rose to $0.53 per share compared to $0.07 per share in 2004, a more than seven-fold increase.

"2005 was another outstanding year for 3D Systems with revenue, operating profit, net income and EPS once again reaching record amounts," said Abe Reichental, 3D Systems' president and chief executive officer. "We are particularly gratified that our 2005 revenue growth was driven by the new products that we have introduced since the latter part of 2003. As the year progressed, revenue from new products continually increased as a total share of our revenue mix, climbing to 38% of total revenue in the fourth quarter and ending at 28% of total revenue for the full year."

"Revenue from our 3-D Printing and Rapid Manufacturing initiatives more than offset our expected decrease in revenue from legacy products and services. For the second consecutive quarter, we ended the fourth quarter with a significant order backlog -- $6.8 million -- mostly for orders for large-frame systems for Rapid Manufacturing applications that we expect to ship in 2006. We believe that our 2005 results demonstrate that the strategic actions that we have taken since late 2003 to reshape our organization, transform our product portfolio and re-engineer our business model bore fruit in 2005."

Revenue increases for both the fourth quarter and the year were driven by increases in unit volume of systems and materials, including InVision(TM) 3-D printers, the new-from-the-ground-up Sinterstation(R) Pro and Viper(TM) Pro systems and by favorable price/mix effects. Foreign currency translation adversely affected revenue by $1.2 million for the year and $2.2 million for the fourth quarter, reversing its positive effect in the 2004 periods.

Double-digit increases in sales of systems and materials drove revenue increases in the Americas and the Asia-Pacific region for both the year 2005 and the fourth quarter. Although poor economic conditions in Europe caused declines in systems' revenue in the quarter and the year, materials sales in Europe were strong. Service revenue was down in all geographies and in most service categories, reflecting our previously announced decision to curtail development and sale of upgrades for older, legacy systems and the increased reliability and useful life of laser assemblies.

"Just about one year ago, we shared with you that our planned realignment and recruitment in 2004 of our U.S. sales team came with short-term costs in order to meet medium-term and long-term goals," continued Reichental. "Today, we are pleased to share with you that our new U.S. sales team produced a 53% increase in revenue in the U.S. during the fourth quarter and a 27% increase in revenue for the full year 2005. We are also gratified that our higher investments in R&D during the past two years produced new products that captured $22.8 million of new revenue in 2005, more than offsetting a $12.0 million decline in revenue from core products and services that we are phasing out."

"Fourth-quarter revenue was bolstered by our growing 3-D Printing business and shipments of our new Sinterstation(R) Pro and Viper(TM) Pro systems introduced in the latter half of 2005. Some 50% of our systems' sales in the fourth quarter were for Rapid Manufacturing applications, supporting our emphasis on developing and offering systems that effectively serve higher-growth rapid manufacturing applications," continued Reichental. "Materials' revenue grew as a result of certain tactical marketing initiatives to benefit our customers and produce favorable margins."

"Gross profit margin rose modestly in both the fourth quarter and full-year 2005, benefiting from higher product margins that were only partially offset by the lower margins we derived from our services."

"Product margins benefited from higher unit sales of new systems and materials, lower costs from our outsourcing activities and favorable price/mix effects. But, we did not realize the full benefit of those improvements because of unabsorbed manufacturing overhead arising from our outsourcing activities, additional costs associated with the rollout of two major new systems in 2005 and adverse foreign exchange transaction effects," continued Reichental.

"Service margins declined due to lower sales of upgrades for older legacy systems, higher training and field service activity and a special compensation-related charge. While we are disappointed with the absence of a noticeable improvement in profit margins in 2005, the factors that adversely affected them resulted primarily from deliberate strategic decisions we have made for long-term gain, and we expect to see additional margin improvements going forward," said Reichental.

While operating expenses increased $3.1 million in the fourth quarter and $3.3 million for the full year, as a percentage of revenue, they declined to 39% of revenue in the 2005 year from 40% in 2004. The increase in operating expenses for the year included $1.7 million of strategic and tactical R&D expenditures, which increased by 16% to $12.2 million for the full year, reflecting our accelerated pace of new product development and introductions.

The year's increase in operating expenses also included $1.2 million of severance and restructuring costs that, as mentioned above, we incurred in the fourth quarter 2005 in connection with our previously announced plans to relocate our corporate headquarters, principal R&D activities and corporate support functions to Rock Hill, South Carolina during 2006. These $1.2 million of costs were generally in line with our previously disclosed expectations.

Reflecting on these relocation costs, we estimate that, during 2006, the additional expenses to complete our relocation should be in the range of $6.4 million to $8.1 million. This amount includes an estimated $6.2 million of moving costs and other costs related to personnel, relocation and recruiting and $0.2 million to $1.9 million of facility exit costs. Included in the range of facility exit costs is an estimate of costs that we may incur if we encounter delays in disposing of our Grand Junction and Valencia facilities.

We continue to believe that, in addition to other significant operational and strategic improvements that we expect to achieve from our relocation project, we should realize facilities' and operating-cost savings in excess of $2.5 million per year beginning in 2007, the first full year of our planned operations in the Charlotte area.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 13% for the quarter, primarily reflecting our higher commissions on higher quarterly revenue. For the year, the $1.0 million increase in SG&A expenses resulted primarily from lower legal expenses that were more than offset by higher sales and marketing costs related to our higher revenue and by the absence in 2005 of the benefit of $1.5 million of healthcare cost and bad debt accrual reductions that reduced SG&A expenses in 2004.

"We are pleased that our profitability and continued favorable outlook permitted us to reduce the allowance on our deferred tax assets established in 2002 when we were suffering severe losses and realization of the benefit of our tax loss carry-forwards was uncertain. The $2.5 million allowance reduction is a non-cash tax benefit for U.S. taxes. We expect to reduce the allowance further in future periods as our outlook continues to improve, which would produce additional non-cash tax benefits. Aggregate gross deferred tax assets at the end of 2005 totaled $31.4 million, of which some $29.6 million are related to U.S. taxes and associated with $66.3 million of net operating loss carry-forwards in the U.S. Although we have now commenced recording U.S. tax provisions for financial reporting purposes, we do not expect to pay federal income taxes in the U.S. for several years until we have used the deferred tax assets associated with our U.S. loss carry-forwards.

"Because of our significant investments in working capital during 2005 to support sales, unrestricted cash declined by $2.2 million during the year to $24.1 million at year-end 2005. We expect that the unusually high accounts receivable occasioned by the concentration of fourth-quarter sales late in the quarter will reach normalized levels in the course of the first quarter. We also anticipate that progress payments to outsource assemblers should decline significantly over the course of 2006.

"Most importantly, the ability of our employees to act and operate like owners of the business is producing favorable trends in revenue, operating expenses, gross profit margin and cash flow. Reflecting on the significant progress we made throughout 2005, we believe that we are well positioned to transform the way our customers design, develop and manufacture their products and to improve our customer's bottom line," concluded Reichental.

3D Systems will discuss its operating results for the fourth quarter and full-year of 2005 on a conference call and audio Webcast today at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time (8:00 a.m. Pacific Time). Details are set forth below.

Fourth-quarter business highlights:

During the fourth quarter, 3D Systems:

    --  Introduced 3 new products:

        --  Accura(R) 25 material, an opaque, white engineered
            material that mimics the look and feel of molded
            polypropylene, delivers excellent accuracy, speed and
            shape-memory, making it suitable for functional prototypes
            as well as master patterns.

        --  VisiJet(R) SR 200 plastic for the InVision(TM) SR 3-D
