●

Cost reduction plan delivered significant year-over-year improvements to adjusted EBITDA and operating cash flow in first quarter 2023

●

Combined $100 million in annualized savings from cost reduction plans remain on-track in order to reduce expense structure, expand margins, and drive to profitability

BOSTON – Desktop Metal, Inc. (NYSE: DM) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

“Desktop Metal is off to a solid start to 2023 following very strong growth last year,” said Ric Fulop, Founder and CEO of Desktop Metal. “Customer demand trends for our unique portfolio of AM 2.0 mass production solutions remain resilient, despite an unsteady macro environment, giving us confidence in our growth projections for this year. Additionally, we’ve made significant progress on our cost reduction efforts initiated last year and expanded in February 2023. Going forward, we expect to demonstrate continued reductions in our cost structure in order to expand margins and deliver on our adjusted EBITDA commitments. We believe we can differentiate ourselves as we navigate a difficult economic backdrop relative to our industry peers.”

First Quarter 2023 and Recent Business Highlights:

●

Continued and expanded the cost reduction plan announced in 2022 to add an additional $50 million in annualized savings, as announced in February 2023, after successfully completing $50 million in annualized savings in 2022. Total combined $100 million in annualized cost savings remain on-track in order to reduce expense structure, expand margins, and drive to profitability

●

Expanding customer relationships with a growing number of high adoption Super Fleet customers, or those with three or more AM 2.0 printing systems. We now have more than 370 Super Fleet customers producing a high volume of end-use parts

●

Continued progress on Production System^TM platforms including expanding relationships with various consumer electronics customers, a segment we believe we can generate eight figures of revenue over next 18 months

●

Launched Live Suite^TM, a highly differentiated end-to-end software hub delivering generative AI solutions for AM 2.0

●

Expanded technical ceramic offerings across our portfolio of binder jet systems, where we're seeing increasing adoption for silicon carbide applications

●

Continued expansion of leading production materials library including Copper Alloy C18150 and Titanium Alloy Ti64 on the Production System^TM and 304L Stainless Steel on the Shop System^TM

First Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights:

●

Revenue of $41.3 million, down 5.5% from first quarter 2022 revenue of $43.7 million

●

GAAP gross margin of (3.3)%; non-GAAP gross margin of 18.0%, an improvement of 90 basis points from first quarter 2022

●

GAAP net loss of $52.6 million including $10.4 million amortization of acquired intangibles; non-GAAP net loss of $27.7 million

●

Adjusted EBITDA of $(24.4) million, an improvement of $17.1 million from first quarter 2022

●

Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $149.8 million as of March 31, 2023

Financial Outlook:

●

Reaffirming revenue expectation of between $210 to $260 million for full year 2023

●

Reaffirming Adjusted EBITDA expectation of between $(50) to $(25) million for full year 2023, with expectation to achieve Adjusted EBITDA breakeven before year end 2023

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP operating expense, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

●

We define non-GAAP gross margin as GAAP gross margin excluding the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring, acquisition-related and integration costs, and inventory step-up adjustments

●

We define non-GAAP operating loss as GAAP operating loss excluding the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring, inventory step-up adjustments, and acquisition-related and integration costs

●

We define non-GAAP net loss as GAAP net loss excluding the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring, inventory step-up adjustments, acquisition-related and integration costs, and change in fair value of investments

●

We define non-GAAP operating expense as GAAP operating expense excluding the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring, and acquisition-related and integration costs including in operating expenses

●

We define EBITDA as GAAP net income (loss) excluding interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense

●

We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding change in fair value of investments, inventory step-up adjustments, stock-based compensation, restructuring, and acquisition-related and integration costs

In addition to Desktop Metal’s results determined in accordance with GAAP, Desktop Metal’s management uses this non-GAAP financial information to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that this non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors in assessing Desktop Metal’s operating performance.

We believe that the use of Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP operating expense, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends because it eliminates the effect of financing, capital expenditures, and non-cash expenses such as stock-based compensation and warrants, and provides investors with a means to compare Desktop Metal’s financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, investors should be aware that when evaluating non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP operating expense, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, we may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. In addition, our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computation of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies because not all companies calculate these measures in the same fashion.

Because of these limitations, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP operating expense, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP operating expense, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. Management uses, and investors should consider, our non-GAAP financial measures only in conjunction with our GAAP results. Desktop Metal has not provided a reconciliation of its Adjusted EBITDA outlook to net income because estimates of all of the reconciling items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts.

Set forth below is a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this press release to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
