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 second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

“During the second quarter we made tangible progress across our broad spectrum of additive manufacturing capabilities to key large and growing industry verticals. We continued to execute on our growth initiatives, which further strengthened our position as a leading provider of digital manufacturing,” said Greg Kress, Shapeways’ Chief Executive Officer. “We combine high quality, flexible on demand manufacturing with purpose built proprietary software that enables our customers to rapidly transform digital designs into physical products, thereby helping to drive efficiency across the supply chain. As part of our external growth efforts, we completed three acquisitions adding complementary technologies, expanding our customer base, and accelerating our product diversification. We also enhanced our senior leadership team and our board of directors with talented and experienced individuals that we believe will contribute to our execution efforts as we grow the company.”

Business Updates

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

• Expansion of its additive manufacturing capabilities – The Company enhanced its internal offerings to serve a wider spectrum of existing customer needs, including:
  • added industrial precision metal printing capabilities with investment in EOS Direct Metal Laser Sintering and GE Arcam Electron Beam Melting Printing;
  • broadened its plastics printing ability to the U.S. with the expansion of its HP Multi Jet Fusion footprint; and
  • expanded its certifications with ITAR registered manufacturing capabilities and an additional ISO 9001 Certified manufacturing location with the acquisition of LinearAMS, which was completed in the quarter.
• Executing a comprehensive go-to-market strategy – The Company started to win new business in its target industries while building its pipeline with enterprise level customers in key verticals, such as medical, aerospace, automotive, and industrial verticals.
• Offering more traditional manufacturing services – The Company accelerated the development of its outsourced supply chain capabilities to support traditional manufacturing with the acquisition of MFG.com ("MFG") which was completed in the quarter. The MFG supplier network provides Shapeways access to suppliers with manufacturing services covering molding, machining, and sheet metal.
• Commercializing its software –The Company continued the rollout of its OTTO Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) offering and completed the acquisitions of MFG and MakerOS, both of which are expected to accelerate its product development roadmap and provide a strong lead base to offer its software. Shapeways’ software digitizes and removes friction from the end-to-end manufacturing process and manages complex workflows which enables efficient high-quality manufacturing at scale.

As previously announced, during the quarter, the Company completed three strategic acquisitions which advance its objectives of accelerating its OTTO SaaS go-to-market plan, adding complementary manufacturing capabilities, and deepening reach into key target verticals. These acquisitions include:

• MFG.com: Helps custom part manufacturers grow their business by making it easy for them to be discovered on its cloud-based Request for Quote ("RFQ") management platform and helps buyers to find the best possible manufacturer that fits their needs through a set of supplier and buyer marketplaces mainly for traditional manufacturing. The Company believes that MFG fits well into its software strategy, adds immediate features with its marketplace products, and is expected to contribute to the acceleration of OTTO’s phased rollout.
• MakerOS: Offers a SaaS service to facilitate design, prototype, and production processes for manufacturers and service providers. MakerOS brings features to OTTO’s product vision, particularly enhanced quoting, project management, and customer communications tools.
• Linear AMS: An expert in plastics molding, tooling, and production, predominantly in the automotive industry. Headquartered in Michigan, Linear AMS has blue chip automotive customers and certifications, and access to their respective suppliers.

All statements, other than statements of present or historical fact included in this press release, regarding the Company's strategy, future operations, impact of recent acquisitions, outlook, and prospects 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.

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 income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Shapeways’ business.
