The inventor of 3D printing to highlight the history and the future of 3D printing at key industry trade show
Recognition for the early innovators across the industry who helped build the additive industry
Visit booth D11 in Hall 11 at Formnext to see new developments in MultiJet 3D printing, Direct Metal 3D printing and more.

ROCK HILL, South Carolina, November 12, 2026 – 3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) today announced plans to celebrate, at Formnext 2026, the 40^th anniversary of the founding of 3D Systems and 43 years of the invention of SLA 3D printing by co-founder Chuck Hull. With guest appearances by Chuck Hull and opportunities to see and touch the original 3D-printed part, attendees can understand the origins of additive manufacturing, combined with 3D Systems’ vision of the future of manufacturing.

“The 3D printing industry has grown steadily to more than $16B at the end of 2025 after more than 40 years of existence in large part thanks to Chuck Hull and 3D Systems,” said Scott Dunham, Executive Vice President of Research at Additive Manufacturing Research. “Chuck's dedication to this industry, and in turn 3D Systems' ongoing development of many foundational technologies, is commendable. Our projections for additive manufacturing estimate an industry of at least $65B by 2035, which is incredible when put into the context of beginning from one man's idea for a rapid prototyping technology.”

While Chuck Hull has always been very humble about his own invention of SLA, he has also been admiring of innovations that came after, either via 3D Systems or from other inventors who have been either partners or competitors to 3D Systems, all of whom helped build the industry to where it is now.

“This is a true celebration for 3D Systems, but also the 3D printing industry as a whole,” said Chuck Hull, inventor of 3D printing, CTO and co-founder of 3D Systems. “Turning this small idea into a $16 billion industry has been the result of hard work and a drive to succeed by many in the industry. The drive of entrepreneurship and innovation by everyone is what has made this industry grow and we want to celebrate that.”

The Emergence of Competition in 3D Printing

Following the commercialization of SLA, other key inventors emerged with different approaches to solving additive manufacturing.

Scott Crump invented and patented Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing in 1988, and with his wife, Lisa Crump, co-founded Stratasys (NASDAQ: SSYS). Stratasys provided an alternative to SLA 3D printing and rapid prototyping, helping to develop and expand the industry alongside 3D Systems.

“We are excited to join Chuck Hull in this celebration of the 3D printing industry,” said Scott Crump, co-founder and Board Member of Stratasys. “Watching it grow from a series of bright ideas into a vital additive manufacturing industry has been incredibly fulfilling. None of it would have been possible without the passion and drive of pioneers like Chuck Hull and the many others who have helped make the industry what it is today.”

In the 1980s, Carl R. Deckard, an undergraduate student at The University of Texas at Austin, conceived the idea for Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), a process that uses a laser to fuse powdered material into solid objects. He continued developing the idea through his master’s and doctoral studies under Dr. Joseph Beaman, his professor and mentor. Beaman recognized Carl’s talent and gave him the support, technical guidance, and freedom to explore that helped turn his idea into a working manufacturing process. DTM was acquired by 3D Systems in 2001.

“Carl came up with a wild idea of making parts as he watched Star Trek one night and thought about the special effects of using sand as a backdrop when ‘beaming down’ to the planet. We worked on the idea and brought it to Joe who helped him make it work. It took quite a bit of dedication from both of them to get SLS out of the lab and into the market,” said David K. Leigh, a fellow student and colleague of Deckard’s. “DTM Corporation licensed the technology from UT Austin and developed it for commercial use. Carl died in 2019 at just 58. We lost him too soon, but the work he and Joe did together continues to make a difference today.”

Another influential figure from the industry’s origins is Joe Allison, who joined 3D Systems in 1987 and filed 12 patents for the company across 3 years. He later formed Solid Concepts, which quickly became one of the world’s largest suppliers of 3D printed parts. Allison is now CEO of Gentle Giant Studios, a leading 3D printing and digital art company involved in the movie business.

“Chuck Hull not only invented a technology but he founded an industry that has profoundly changed the way things are manufactured,” said Allison. “3D printing has repeatedly proven itself as the way forward for highly complex parts where the limitations of traditional manufacturing have been a barrier. We will see the industry continue to grow and develop in ways that no one can predict.”

There are yet more inventors who have been and continue to be key influencers in the industry and so acknowledgement also goes to individuals including: Max Lebovsky, CEO, Formlabs; Andy Christensen, founder of Medical Modeling; Yoav Zeif, CEO, Stratasys; Emanuel Sachs who first invented binder jetting 3D printing; and many many more.

From the History to the Future of 3D Printing

Across the last 4 decades, the 3D printing industry has seen periods of growth and decline, optimism and doubt, but through the belief and innovation of many in the industry, it has grown far beyond what many would have expected. Chuck Hull continues to inspire new innovations in the industry.

“3D printing continues to strengthen because of the inventiveness of people in applying it, perfecting the materials and processes,” said Dr. Jeff Graves, President & CEO, 3D Systems. “We have entered an era where 3D printing is now enabling unheard-of performance in space, automotive, dental and medical fields. With 3D printing, the sky is not the limit.”

Attendees at Formnext will be able to hear Chuck Hull present alongside Patrick Dunne, SVP, Advanced Applications, 3D Systems, at 3.45 pm on Tuesday November 17, 2026 on the Technology Stage, Stand #B49 in Hall 12.1.

You can join 3D Systems in celebrating both the last 40 years and the future of 3D printing at Formnext between 5 – 8 pm, Booth D11 in Hall 11, November 18 2026, Frankfurt, Germany

3D Systems Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results Kara Caldwell Wed, 11/04/2026 - 16:07

Release Date

Wednesday, Nov 4, 2026 4:10 PM

ROCK HILL, South Carolina - November 4, 2026 - 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD) announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Q3 2026 revenue of $99.3 million, up 9% year-over-year, and up 11% excluding software divestitures, driven by double-digit growth in new printer and parts manufacturing sales and strong dental materials revenue.
Net loss was $33.5 million for the quarter, while Adjusted EBITDA improved to $3.1 million, reflecting the benefits of prior cost reduction initiatives, higher sales volumes, and improved operating leverage in the quarter.
Healthcare revenue increased 14% year-over-year, driven by continued growth in personalized healthcare solutions, and more than 20% growth in both healthcare parts manufacturing and dental materials sales.
Industrial revenue increased 4% year-over year, or 8% excluding software divestitures, driven by strong growth in Data Center Infrastructure and more than 50% growth in Aerospace & Defense, partially offset by declines in consumer-facing markets.
Our four strategic markets delivered strong double-digit growth through the first three quarters of 2026, advancing our strategy to accelerate growth in Med Tech, Dental, Aerospace & Defense and Data Center Infrastructure.

Summary Comments on Results

Dr. Jeffrey Graves, President and Chief Executive Officer of 3D Systems, said, “We are pleased with our third-quarter and year-to-date performance. Revenue growth accelerated, Adjusted EBITDA turned positive for the quarter and the year-to-date period, and our four strategic markets, Med Tech, Dental, Aerospace & Defense, and Data Center Infrastructure, continued to deliver strong double-digit growth. These results reflect the progress we have made executing a focused strategy: concentrating resources on high-value production applications, refreshing our product portfolio, and expanding our metal parts manufacturing capability. Customers in these markets are increasingly adopting 3D printing as a core manufacturing technology, and the combination of design flexibility and production economics is enabling higher-performance components and systems to move into full production.”

Dr. Graves concluded, “As the additive manufacturing industry begins to emerge from a multi-year downturn, the consistent investments we have made in technology, application expertise, and production capacity during this challenging period have positioned the Company to benefit from the recovery. While the broader economic and geopolitical environment remains volatile, capital investment in our priority markets is now strengthening, and we are well positioned to support the resulting increase in demand for manufacturing capacity. I am confident in the foundation we have built and in the Company’s ability to deliver profitable growth in the years ahead.”

"Our positive third-quarter results demonstrate continued progress against the priorities we established over the past two years,” said Phyllis Nordstrom, Chief Financial Officer of 3D Systems. “We delivered strong revenue growth while maintaining effective cost management, resulting in positive Adjusted EBITDA year-to-date. At the same time, we are steadily reshaping our business around our four strategic markets through the first three quarters of the year. Our year-to-date performance gives us confidence that our strategy is gaining traction and creating a stronger foundation for profitable growth."

Third Quarter 2026 Results

Total revenue increased 8.8% to $99.3 million compared to the prior year period. Excluding the impact of software divestitures completed in 2025, including 3DXpert and Oqton, total revenue increased by 10.9%.

Healthcare Solutions revenue increased approximately 14.4% to $49.0 million compared to the prior year period. Revenue growth was primarily driven by higher dental material sales and increased parts manufacturing volumes.

Industrial Solutions revenue increased approximately 3.9% to $50.3 million compared to the prior year period, or increased7.7% excluding the impact of software divestitures, primarily driven by higher printer and parts manufacturing sales.

Gross profit margin increased to 35.0% compared to 32.3% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP gross profit margin increased to 35.5% compared to 32.5% in the prior year period. Adjusting for software divestitures, non-GAAP gross profit margin increased by 420 basis points. Non-GAAP gross profit margin benefited from higher sales volumes in printers and parts manufacturing, product gross profit margin expansion, and the non-recurrence of certain prior-year costs associated with a non-core site closure and a Reg Med accounting adjustment.

Net loss attributable to 3D Systems Corporation increased by $15.5 million to $33.5 million, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily the result of litigation expense, an asset impairment charge, an unfavorable foreign exchange impact, and an unfavorable year-over-year change in income taxes.

Adjusted EBITDA improved by $13.9 million, to $3.1 million compared to the prior year period, driven primarily by the impact of prior cost reduction initiatives, higher sales volumes in the quarter, and improved operating leverage in the quarter. Excluding the impact of software divestitures, Adjusted EBITDA improved $13.1 million.

Financial Liquidity

At September 30, 2026, the Company had total cash and investments of $120.5 million, which included cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $91.8 million, short-term investments of $27.1 million, and long-term investments of $1.6 million. A total of $3.9 million in principal amount of debt is scheduled to mature in the fourth quarter of 2026, with the remaining $92.0 million principal maturing in 2030.

Fourth Quarter 2026 Outlook

Revenue: $100 - $103 million

Adjusted EBITDA: ($2) million - $0 million

The fourth-quarter outlook reflects continued positive momentum across the Company’s four strategic markets, while incorporating normal variability in customer program and investment cycles and more evenly distributed purchasing patterns we observed throughout the year. At the midpoint of our fourth-quarter outlook, the Company expects full year revenue growth approaching mid-single digits for 2026.

3D Systems does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain measures on a GAAP basis. The Company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because certain items, including litigation expenses, acquisition expenses, stock-based compensation expense, intangible amortization expense, restructuring expenses, and goodwill impairment, are difficult to predict and estimate. These items are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, and as such, any associated estimate and its impact on GAAP performance could vary materially.

Third Quarter 2026 Conference Call and Webcast

The Company will host a conference call and simultaneous webcast to discuss these results on November 5, 2026, which may be accessed as follows:

Date: Thursday, November 5, 2026

Time: 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time

Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

Presentation of Information in this Press Release

3D Systems reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. Management also reviews and reports certain non-GAAP measures, including: adjusted revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP diluted income (loss) per share, non-GAAP operating expense and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain items that management does not view as part of 3D Systems’ core results as they may be highly variable, may be unusual or infrequent, are difficult to predict and can distort underlying business trends and results. Management believes that the non-GAAP measures provide useful additional insight into underlying business trends and results and provide meaningful information regarding the comparison of period-over-period results. Additionally, management uses the non-GAAP measures for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, including allocating resources and evaluating results relative to employee compensation targets. 3D Systems’ non-GAAP measures are not calculated in accordance with or as required by GAAP and may not be calculated in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should thus be considered as supplemental in nature and not considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

To calculate the non-GAAP measures, 3D Systems excludes the impact of the following items:

amortization of intangible assets, a non-cash expense, as 3D Systems’ intangible assets were primarily acquired in connection with business combinations;
costs incurred in connection with acquisitions and divestitures, such as legal, consulting and advisory fees;
stock-based compensation expenses, a non-cash expense;
charges related to restructuring and cost optimization plans, impairment charges, including goodwill, and divestiture gains or losses;
the impact of software divestitures, which were previously included in our Industrial Solutions segment, for pre-divestiture periods in 2025;
costs associated with CEO transition activities, including severance and executive recruitment costs; and
costs related to significant or unusual litigation matters, including legal fees, claim-related judgments and settlements.

Amortization of intangibles and acquisition and divestiture-related costs are excluded from non-GAAP measures as the timing and magnitude of business combination transactions are not predictable, can vary significantly from period to period and the purchase price allocated to amortizable intangible assets and the related amortization period are unique to each acquisition. Amortization of intangible assets will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. While intangible assets contribute to the Company’s revenue generation, the amortization of intangible assets does not directly relate to the sale of the Company’s products or services. Additionally, intangible assets amortization expense typically fluctuates based on the size and timing of the Company’s acquisition activity. Accordingly, the Company believes excluding the amortization of intangible assets enhances the Company’s and investors’ ability to compare the Company’s past financial performance with its current performance and to analyze underlying business performance and trends. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to certain of our employees, the expense is non-cash in nature, and we continue to evaluate our business performance excluding stock-based compensation; therefore, it is excluded from non-GAAP measures. Stock-based compensation expenses will recur in future periods. Charges related to restructuring and cost optimization plans, impairment charges, including goodwill, divestiture gains or losses, and the costs, including legal fees, related to significant or unusual litigation matters are excluded from non-GAAP measures as the frequency and magnitude of these activities may vary widely from period to period. Additionally, impairment charges, including goodwill, are non-cash. Furthermore, the Company believes the costs, including legal fees, related to significant or unusual litigation matters are not indicative of our core business' operations.

The matters discussed above are tax effected, as applicable, in calculating non-GAAP diluted income (loss) per share.

Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net (loss) income, plus income tax (provision) benefit, interest and other income (expense), net, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, depreciation expense, and other non-GAAP adjustments, all as described above, is used by management to evaluate performance and helps measure financial performance period-over-period.

Furthermore, in this press release, 3D Systems reports certain non-GAAP financial measures further adjusted to remove the operating activity related to (i) Geomagic, which the Company divested on April 1, 2025, for $119.4 million in cash, and (ii) 3DXpert and Oqton, which the Company divested on October 31, 2025, for $3.3 million in cash plus a revenue-based royalty of up to $12.9 million (together with Geomagic, the "Software Divestitures"), for periods non-comparable on a year over year basis. The Company believes excluding non-comparable periods allows it to include the operating activity related to Software Divestitures only to the extent that results are comparable year over year.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the accompanying schedules.

Certain columns may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in thousands.

3D Systems does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain measures on a GAAP basis. The Company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure without unreasonable effort because certain items, including litigation costs, acquisition expenses, stock-based compensation expense, intangible assets amortization expense, restructuring expenses, and goodwill impairment charges, are difficult to predict and estimate. These items are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, and as such, any associated estimate and its impact on GAAP performance could vary materially.

Since 1985, RAM has worked to eliminate these barriers, delivering free healthcare services to more than one million patients across the United States. In 2025 alone, the organization served 32,770 patients and provided more than $16.6 million in free healthcare through the efforts of over 17,000 volunteers.

After learning about RAM’s mission and its use of 3D Systems’ NextDent 5100 platform to provide dentures for underserved patients, 3D Systems CEO Jeff Graves saw an opportunity to further support RAM’s efforts. The donation of the Company’s new NextDent 300 MultiJet 3D printer will help RAM expand its digital denture manufacturing capabilities, enabling faster production of high-quality dentures for patients in need.

The NextDent 300, powered by 3D Systems’ MultiJet 3D Printing technology, enables the production of highly realistic, durable monolithic dentures, with teeth and gums printed together as a single piece. By streamlining traditionally labor-intensive denture manufacturing processes, the solution helps reduce production time while delivering the precision, fit, and natural aesthetics patients deserve.

The donated printer system is now installed and operational at RAM’s facility in Knoxville, Tennessee, where the organization is already using the technology to produce dentures for members of the community. Once RAM’s newest mobile dental laboratory is completed, the NextDent 300 will be integrated into the mobile unit, expanding the organization’s ability to bring advanced digital denture production directly to underserved communities across the country.

“Remote Area Medical has an extraordinary record of bringing essential healthcare to people who need it most,” said Jeff Graves, CEO of 3D Systems. “We are proud to support that work with the NextDent 300, which enables the production of high-quality monolithic dentures more efficiently. The ability to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and smile with confidence can have a profound impact on a person’s quality of life. We hope this donation helps RAM extend that impact to even more patients.”

“A Mirror Moment lasts only a few seconds, but its impact lasts a lifetime. It’s the first time in years someone smiles without covering their mouth, with the confidence to apply for a job, share a meal with family, or simply laugh out loud. Remote Area Medical’s partnership with 3D Systems lets us give patients high-quality dentures, and with them, a moment many thought they’d never have again. Together, we’re proving what’s possible when innovation and compassion share the same goal, one Mirror Moment at a time,” said Connor Gibson, Dental Technology Manager, Remote Area Medical.

RAM’s ongoing investment in mobile healthcare services reflects its commitment to reaching patients who face geographic, financial, or other obstacles to treatment.
