The Company's solutions include products ranging from entry-level desktop 3D printers to systems for rapid prototyping (“RP”) and large production systems for direct digital manufacturing (“DDM”). The Company also develops, manufactures and sells materials for use with its systems and provides related service offerings. The Company also provides a variety of custom manufacturing solutions through its direct manufacturing printed parts services as well as related professional services offerings.

The ASU clarifies that an entity should consider all relevant terms and features on the basis of relevant facts and circumstances, including the embedded derivative feature being evaluated for bifurcation, in evaluating the nature of a host contract. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. This ASU can be adopted either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption.

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on revenue from contracts with customers that will supersede the current revenue recognition guidance. The new revenue recognition standard provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle of the new revenue recognition standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new revenue recognition standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, subject to an additional one-year deferral as proposed by the FASB. Earlier adoption is not permitted. This standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard on its consolidated financial statements.
