Markforged Holding Corporation (NYSE: MKFG) (the “Company”), the
company strengthening manufacturing resiliency by enabling

September 30, 2023.

Quarter 2022
- Revenue was $20.1 million compared to $25.2 million.
- Gross margin was 45.7% compared to 48.6%.
- Non-GAAP gross margin was 46.9% compared to 49.2%.
- Operating expenses were $59.6 million, inclusive of a non-cash
goodwill impairment charge of $29.5 million as a result of the
Company’s performance during the third quarter and decline in
forecasted revenue in 2023, compared to $35.1 million.
- Non-GAAP operating expenses were $24.9 million compared to
$28.5 million.
- Net loss was $51.4 million compared to net loss of $23.0

million.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Financial Results
Compared To Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
- Revenue was $69.6 million compared to $71.3 million.
- Gross margin was 47.0% compared to 51.6%.
- Non-GAAP gross margin was 48.2% compared to 52.1%.
- Net cash used in operating activities was $40.0 million
compared to $65.3 million.
Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures provided in
this press release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial
measures are provided in the financial tables included at the end
of this press release. An explanation of these measures and how
they are calculated is also included under the heading “Non-GAAP
Financial Measures.”
“While the medium-to-long-term opportunity for Markforged to
help manufacturers reduce costs and strengthen supply chain
resiliency remains intact, our third quarter results reflect
worsening macroeconomic headwinds in the final weeks of the
quarter, which delayed several large deals that we had expected to
close,” said Shai Terem, President and CEO of Markforged. “We
remain laser focused on profitability. In light of these headwinds,
which have persisted into the fourth quarter, we have implemented
cost reduction efforts to align our operating expenses to match
anticipated near-term demand. With that, the overwhelming
excitement surrounding our new product introductions at Formnext
2023 last week is a testament to the transformative impact our
offerings are set to make in the manufacturing industry. In
particular, the customer enthusiasm surrounding the FX10 is
reinforcing our confidence that Markforged is well-positioned for
strong growth as macroeconomic uncertainty clears.”
Business Updates
- Accelerated Macroeconomic Uncertainty Impacts Near-Term
Demand. In line with Markforged’s preliminary announced
results, revenue for the third quarter was $20.1 million. Stronger
than expected macroeconomic headwinds impacted demand for the
Digital Forge and delayed orders toward the end of the quarter.
These challenges have continued into the fourth quarter. The
persistent high cost of capital and uncertainty in the macro
environment is restricting capital investment in the short term,
more than previously anticipated.
- Accelerating Cost Reduction Efforts. In response to
these continuing economic headwinds, Markforged has completed a
restructuring that coupled with other cost reduction efforts is
expected to deliver operating costs savings of approximately $9 -
$12 million in 2024, mostly driven by an approximately ~10%
headcount reduction.
- Digital Source Launch. In the third quarter, Markforged
achieved another critical milestone toward the future of
distributed manufacturing with the launch of Digital Source.
Digital Source is an on-demand parts platform for the licensing and
3D-printing of manufacturer-certified parts when and where they are
needed, without the cost or hassle of physical inventory. While the
Company’s focus in 2024 is building out the Digital Source
platform, the Company believes the opportunity for high margin
revenue streams will be a growth catalyst in the years to come as
Markforged is already seeing early engagement from customers.
- New Innovations Expand Addressable Market. Continuing
Markforged’s track record of innovation, the Company introduced two
new products last week at Formnext. The first, the FX10, is
Markforged’s next generation composite 3D printer for the factory
floor. Building on the precision and reliability of the X7, but
nearly twice as large and twice as fast as its predecessor, the
FX10 is built to supercharge manufacturing productivity and
profitability by boosting production yields while decreasing
operating costs. The company started building a backlog of orders
for the FX10 into 2024. Markforged also introduced Vega, an ultra
high-performance, carbon fiber filled PEKK material for 3D printing
critical aerospace parts. These innovations complement the Digital
Forge, and further increase the Company’s addressable market by
helping customers solve more applications on the factory
floor.
2023 Financial Outlook
The uncertain macro environment and relatively high cost of
capital have weighed on Markforged’s customers’ purchasing behavior
more than expected. Therefore, Markforged is maintaining its
revised revenue guidance the Company shared with preliminary
results of $90.0 - $95.0 million.
Markforged expects Non-GAAP gross margins to be within the range
of 47% to 48%, which is within the range of the Company’s previous
guidance.
Markforged is committed to pursuing profitable growth over time.
As such, Markforged has recently announced a company-wide
reorganization that coupled with additional cost reduction efforts
is expected to generate annualized opex savings of $9 to $12
million in 2024. Including a one time restructuring costs,
estimated at approximately $0.9 million, operating loss for the
year is expected to be within the range $59 - $61 million.
Non-GAAP EPS loss per share is expected to be between $0.26 -
$0.28 including restructuring costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our financial results determined in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we
believe that non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating profit
(loss), and non-GAAP earnings per share, each a non-GAAP financial
measure, is useful in evaluating the performance of our
business.
These non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool.
We do not, nor do we suggest that investors should, consider such
non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute
for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Investors should also note that the non-GAAP financial measures we
use may not be the same non-GAAP financial measures, and may not be
calculated in the same manner, as that of other companies,
including other companies in our industry.
We recommend that you review the reconciliation of these
non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measures provided in the financial statement tables included below
in this press release, and that you not rely on any single
financial measure to evaluate our business. Additionally, to the
extent that forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are
provided, they are presented on a non-GAAP basis without
reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures due to
the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain
amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations.
Investors should note that beginning with the second quarter of
2022, we have modified the presentation of “non-recurring costs”
included in non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating profit
(loss), non-GAAP net profit (loss) and non-GAAP earnings per share
metrics to include certain non-recurring litigation costs.
Beginning with the fourth quarter of 2022, we modified the
presentation to remove the impact of the amortization of our
intangible assets. We use these metrics to provide an understanding
of the results of our core business performance and believe these
litigation and amortization costs are not indicative of the
performance of our core business’ operations. This change increases
“non-recurring costs” by $0.6 million, $1.0 million, and $0.8
million in the first through third quarters of 2022, respectively.
The exclusion of amortization impacts non-GAAP net profit (loss) by
$5.0 thousand and $37.0 thousand in the second through third
quarters of 2022, respectively. To conform to the current period’s
presentation, we have included non-recurring litigation costs as
“non-recurring costs” when presenting the foregoing non-GAAP
figures for the year to date period.
The following are the non-GAAP financial measures referenced in
this press release and presented in the tables below:
- Non-GAAP gross margin is defined as GAAP gross profit (loss),
less stock-based compensation expense, amortization, and certain
non-recurring costs, divided by revenue.
- Non-GAAP operating profit (loss) is defined as GAAP operating
profit (loss) less stock-based compensation expense, amortization,
and certain non-recurring costs.
- Non-GAAP net profit (loss) is defined as GAAP net profit (loss)
less stock-based compensation expense, net change in fair value of
warrant liabilities and contingent earnout liabilities,
amortization, and certain non-recurring costs.
- Non-GAAP earnings per share is defined as GAAP net profit
(loss) less stock-based compensation expense, net change in fair
value of warrant liabilities and contingent earnout liabilities,
amortization, and certain non-recurring costs, divided by diluted
weighted average shares outstanding for the period.
