Nano Dimension Expands on Intentions Regarding Stratasys Board Changes

  • Nano Dimension Put Forward Highly Qualified, Vested Nominees Given the Urgent Need to Prevent Further Value Destruction
  • Fully Recognizes Importance of Majority Board Independence and Intends to Bring on Independent Directors for the Long Term
  • To Learn More About Nano’s Vision for Stratasys and How to Vote, Please Visit www.StratasysValueNow.com

Waltham, Mass., July 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nano Dimension Ltd. (Nasdaq: NNDM, “Nano Dimension”, “Nano” or the “Company”), a leading supplier of Additively Manufactured Electronics (“AME”) and multi-dimensional polymer, metal & ceramic Additive Manufacturing (“AM”) 3D printers, which owns approximately 14.1% of Stratasys’ (Nasdaq: SSYS) (“Stratasys”), today expanded on its intentions regarding the composition of the Stratasys Board of Directors (“Board”).

Nano Dimension, by necessity, is acting with urgency to initiate the replacement of Stratasys’ directors in the interest of all shareholders. As a result, Nano nominated seven highly qualified directors with extensive track records of value creation. As Nano has detailed previously, all of its nominees have previously served as CEOs or in “C-suite” positions, through which they have created demonstrable increases in long-term shareholder value. Almost all of Nano’s candidates have multiple decades of global business experience in technology, finance, M&A and operations in manufacturing and related sectors.

While Nano had asked the court to allow Stratasys shareholders to pick and choose across nominees from both companies, Stratasys has chosen to take that option away from its shareholders, forcing its shareholders to select a full slate. Nano fully recognizes that the Board should be comprised of a majority of independent directors and, following a successful replacement of the current Stratasys’ directors with Nano’s director nominees, intends to take steps to appoint independent directors to represent Stratasys shareholders’ interests for the long term, at which time Nano Dimension’s nominees would cycle off the Board such that a majority of the Board would be independent over time.

Nano Dimension’s director nominees are intended as an interim but urgently needed solution to prevent further value destruction by the current Stratasys Board.

Nano Dimension urges Stratasys shareholders to vote “FOR” the nominees proposed by Nano Dimension at Stratasys’ Annual General Meeting to be held on August 8th, 2023, in order to replace the majority of the current Stratasys Board.

Votes for Stratasys’ 2023 Annual General Meeting must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on Monday, August 7th, 2023, for record shareholders or voting instruction form for Street Holders, online at www.proxyvote.com or by phone. If you are a record shareholder and send in your proxy card directly to Stratasys’ registered Israeli office, it must be received at least four hours prior to the appointed time for the Meeting (i.e., 11:00 a.m., Israel time, on Tuesday, August 8th).
