STRATASYS RELEASES THIRD QUARTER 2019 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Third Quarter Revenue of $157.5 million

Third Quarter GAAP net loss of $6.9 million, or ($0.13) per diluted share, and non-GAAP net income of $6.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share

Minneapolis & Rehovot, Israel, November 13, 2019 — Stratasys Ltd. (NASDAQ: SSYS) announced financial results for the third quarter of 2019.

Q3 2019 Financial Results Summary:

Revenue for the third quarter of 2019 was $157.5 million, compared to $162.0 million for the same period last year.

● GAAP gross margin was 49.2% for the quarter, compared to 48.7% for the same period last year.
 
● Non-GAAP gross margin was 52.4% for the quarter, compared to 52.1% for the same period last year.
 
● GAAP operating loss for the quarter was $6.0 million, compared to an operating income of $3.4 million for the same period last year.
 
● Non-GAAP operating income for the quarter was $8.1 million, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $8.2 million for the same period last year.
 
● GAAP net loss for the quarter was $6.9 million, or ($0.13) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.7 million, or ($0.01) per diluted share, for the same period last year.
 
● Non-GAAP net income for the quarter was $6.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to net income of $5.7 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the same period last year.
 
● The Company used $8.6 million of cash from operations during the third quarter and ended the period with $347.1 million of cash and cash equivalents.

“Our results in the third quarter reflect a continuation of our track record of delivering earnings and profitability, despite challenging global economic conditions that have impacted customer investments in our target verticals in Europe and Asia. In the third quarter we continued to observe strong performance in our core professional and production-focused business in the Americas, our largest market, with specific strength in high-end FDM and PolyJet systems, our F123 Series, and our target verticals of automotive and aerospace,” said Elchanan (Elan) Jaglom, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Stratasys. “We continue to believe that when macro conditions improve we will see a return to growth in Europe and Asia, and believe we are well positioned with an impressive portfolio of new products as we finish 2019.”

Financial Guidance:

Stratasys today updated the following information regarding the Company’s guidance for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019:

● Revenue guidance of $640 million to $655 million, compared to previous guidance of $670 million to $700 million.
 
● GAAP net loss of $17 million to $3 million, or ($0.31) to ($0.05) per diluted share.
 
● Non-GAAP net income of $30 million to $38 million, or $0.55 to $0.70 per diluted share.
 
● Non-GAAP operating margins of 5.5% to 6.5%.
 
● Capital expenditures are projected at $30 million to $45 million.

Given the expected ongoing negative impact of not recording a tax benefit on U.S. tax losses on the Company’s non-GAAP net income, the Company believes that the rate of growth in its non-GAAP operating income is the best measure of its performance.

Non-GAAP earnings guidance excludes $23 million to $24 million of projected amortization of intangible assets; $22 million to $24 million of share-based compensation expense; reorganization and other expenses of ($1 million) to $1 million. Non-GAAP guidance includes negative tax adjustments of $2 million to $3 million on the above non-GAAP items.

These forward-looking statements are based on current information that is, by its nature, subject to rapid and even abrupt change. Due to risks and uncertainties associated with Stratasys' business, actual results could differ materially from those projected or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the degree of market acceptance of our 3D printers, high-performance systems and consumables, and the software and technology included in those systems; potential declines in the demand for, or the prices of, our products and services, or volume of our sales, due to decreased demand either for them specifically or in the 3D printing market generally; potential shifts in our overall strategy, including as related to any reorganization activities and our capital expenditures; potential shifts in our product mix to lower-margin products or in our revenues mix towards our AM services business; the impact of competition and new technologies; potential further charges against earnings that we could be required to take due to impairment of additional goodwill or other intangible assets; potential failure to successfully consummate acquisitions or investments in new businesses, technologies, products or services; risks related to our relationships with our suppliers, resellers and independent sales agents, and our operations at our manufacturing sites; risks related to the international scope of our operations and regulatory compliance (including reporting, environmental, anti-corruption and other regulatory compliance) related to that scope of operations; risks related to the security of our information systems (including risks related to potential cyber-attacks); changes in the overall global economic environment or in political and economic conditions in the countries in which we operate; changes in our strategy; costs and potential liability relating to litigation and regulatory proceedings; and those additional factors referred to in Item 3.D “Key Information - Risk Factors”, Item 4, “Information on the Company”, Item 5, “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” and all other parts of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 Annual Report”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 7th, 2019. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made throughout our 2018 Annual Report and the Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K that attaches Stratasys’ unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements as of, and for the quarter and nine months ended, September 30, 2019, and its review of its results of operations and financial condition for that period, which has been furnished to the SEC on or about the date hereof, and our other reports filed with or furnished to the SEC, which are designed to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Use of non-GAAP financial measures

The non-GAAP data included herein, which excludes certain items as described below, are non-GAAP financial measures. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful information for investors and shareholders of our Company in gauging our results of operations (x) on an ongoing basis after excluding mergers, acquisitions and divestments related expense or gains and reorganization-related charges or gains, and (y) excluding non-cash items such as stock-based compensation expenses, acquired intangible assets amortization, including intangible assets amortization related to equity method investments, impairment of long-lived assets, and the corresponding tax effect of those items. These non-GAAP adjustments either do not reflect actual cash outlays that impact our liquidity and our financial condition or have a non-recurring impact on the statement of operations, as assessed by management. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses our performance for internal planning and forecasting purposes. The limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures as performance measures are that they provide a view of our results of operations without including all items indicated above during a period, which may not provide a comparable view of our performance to other companies in our industry. Investors and other readers should consider non-GAAP measures only as supplements to, not as substitutes for or as superior measures to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in a table below.
