Shapeways Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End 2022 Results

NEW YORK--()--Shapeways Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SHPW) (“Shapeways” or the “Company”), a leader in the large and fast-growing digital manufacturing industry, announced its results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.

“During 2022 we made meaningful progress in positioning Shapeways for expansion as we continue to disrupt the multi-trillion dollar global manufacturing market. In the fourth quarter we delivered 5% revenue growth, in-line with our guidance,” said Greg Kress, Shapeways’ Chief Executive Officer. “Notably, we made strategic investments during the year which expanded our manufacturing technologies, materials, and certifications, as well as further enhanced our software offering. Our production capabilities now include 12 hardware technologies and more than 120 materials and finishes, and we believe we provide an extremely compelling solution for a range of customers, from project-focused engineers to large global enterprises seeking high quality, flexible on-demand manufacturing. Having made these investments, we are now focused on those areas that offer the greatest opportunity, including enterprise manufacturing solutions and commercializing our software”.

“We believe that the manufacturing industry is moving towards digitization and that our software can transform manufacturers globally by facilitating this digital transformation, particularly for small- to medium-sized manufacturers that are not able to invest the capital and time necessary to digitize their processes. We remain encouraged by our progress and growing pipeline across our target automotive, medical, aerospace, and industrial markets, and as we move through 2023 we expect to see increasing contribution from enterprise customers. Our proprietary software is a key differentiator, and with the investments completed in 2022 we expect to further commercialize our software and accelerate the product roadmap. We are excited about the momentum we have built, and we believe we are well-positioned for continued growth.”

Business Updates

The Company made progress on each of its key growth initiatives.

  • Focus on driving profitable growth – The Company is continuing to align resources to focus on the initiatives with the greatest opportunity for growth on its path to profitability. The Company achieved a 43% gross margin for the year and completed a number of investments during 2022 in order to accelerate its growth in the quarters ahead. The Company remains focused on improving its cash burn, and the fourth quarter included some expenditures related to the transition of its U.S. manufacturing capabilities to its Livonia, Michigan facility which is expected to result in further optimization of its manufacturing processes. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $40.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities, which provides the Company with sufficient liquidity to support ongoing execution of its strategic plan.
  • Commercializing its software – The Company has been focused on integrating the recently acquired MFG and MakerOS products into its OTTO software-as-a-service platform; the expanded product suite is expected to help accelerate OTTO's phased rollout. This integration has started to have a favorable impact on the Company’s product development strategy, customer acquisition and retention. The Company’s goal is to accelerate digital transformation across the manufacturing ecosystem; OTTO offers software tools and services for customers' manufacturing operations, leveraging the Company’s proprietary technology for capabilities such as file-upload, instant pricing, custom checkout, file optimization and manufacturing fulfillment.
  • Scaling its enterprise manufacturing solutions – With the expansion of materials, technologies, finishes and certifications, the Company continues to expand its manufacturing capabilities, which positions the Company to unlock additional opportunities in key markets such as industrial, medical, automotive and aerospace. Manufacturers are seeking more flexibility in their supply chain and manufacturing operations, and Shapeways is increasingly capturing business from small to medium sized manufacturers that are unlikely to invest the capital required to deploy and support their own digital manufacturing capabilities.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this press release are not historical facts and are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as "believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "expect," "should," "would," "plan," "predict," "potential," "seem," "seek," "future," "outlook," and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. All statements, other than statements of present or historical fact included in this press release, regarding the Company's strategy, future operations, conversion of enterprise customers, rollout of its software offering, impact of recent acquisitions, outlook, and prospects and plans for compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standards are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this press release, and on the current expectations of management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including changes in domestic and foreign business, financial, geopolitical, legal, and market conditions, including supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions; difficulties integrating acquired companies; ability to retain customers of acquired companies or otherwise expand its customer base; the risk that Shapeways has a history of losses and may not achieve or maintain profitability in the future; the risk that the Company faces significant competition and expects to face increasing competition in many aspects; the risk that the digital manufacturing industry is a relatively new and emerging market and it is uncertain whether it will gain widespread acceptance; the risk that the Company's new and existing solutions and software do not achieve sufficient market acceptance; the loss of key personnel; the inability to timely and effectively scale the Company's platform; the ability to move the Company's manufacturing capabilities without disruption or delay; and those factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in Shapeways’ most recent Form 10-K, most recent Form 10-Q, and other documents Shapeways has filed, or will file, with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or the Company’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that the Company does not presently know, or that the Company currently believes are immaterial, that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect the Company's expectations, plans, or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. The Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause its assessments to change. However, while the Company may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, it specifically disclaims any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company's assessments of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to Shapeways’ results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), Shapeways believes that Adjusted EBITDA, a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, is useful in evaluating its operational performance. Shapeways uses this non-U.S. GAAP financial information to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Shapeways believes that this non-U.S. GAAP financial information, when reviewed collectively with its U.S. GAAP results, may be helpful to investors in assessing its operating performance.

Shapeways defines Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income excluding debt forgiveness, interest expense, net of interest income, income tax benefit, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, acquisition costs and other (which includes other income and non-operating gains and losses).

Shapeways believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends because it eliminates the effect of financing and capital expenditures and provides investors with a means to compare its financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to investors. However, you should be aware that when evaluating Adjusted EBITDA Shapeways may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. In addition, Shapeways’ presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Shapeways compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its U.S. GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Shapeways’ business.
