Velo3D, Inc. (NYSE: VLD), a leading additive manufacturing
technology company for mission-critical metal parts, today
announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30,
2024.
“Our second quarter results reflected continued execution on our
strategic priorities as we added to our year-to-date bookings,
maintained a healthy backlog and reduced our operating expenses,”
said Brad Kreger, CEO of Velo3D. “Specifically, we continued to
expand our defense and space sector footprint during the quarter
and expect to add to our backlog in these important industries in
the second half of the year. We also further executed on our
re-alignment efforts as we reduced our quarterly operating costs by
37% year over year and improved our manufacturing and operational
efficiency. However, while we have made significant financial and
operational progress year to date, we have made the difficult
decision to right size the business as we expect industry
conditions to remain challenging into the second half of 2024.”
“Our second quarter results also reflected the impact of delays
in the funding of certain governmental projects with those system
orders now expected in the second half of the year. While we still
expect to close these transactions, these delays have negatively
impacted our revenue forecast for the balance of the year. As a
result, we have instituted a number of material cost reduction
programs to reduce expenses and manage our liquidity, including a
headcount reduction of approximately 30%. We expect these programs
to drive significant annual operating savings and we continue to
look at various options to support our balance sheet during our
ongoing the strategic review process.”
“Looking forward, we believe the continued focus on our key
priorities will position us well to capitalize on the increasing
industry demand for leading-edge additive manufacturing solutions,”
concluded Kreger.

Summary of Second Quarter 2024 Results
Revenue for the second quarter was $10.3 million. System revenue
increased compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily driven
by a mix shift to the company’s higher priced Sapphire XC systems.
Support services and recurring payment revenue declined
sequentially compared to the first quarter of 2024 due to the
expiration of certain lease contracts as well as a slight reduction
in customers with active field service contracts.
Gross margin for the second quarter was negative 28% and
primarily reflected the impact of lower fixed cost absorption as
certain systems orders were delayed to the second half of 2024.
GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter were $17.6
million compared to $28.2 million in the second quarter of 2023.
Non-GAAP operating expenses, excluding stock-based compensation
expense of $3.8 million, was $13.8 million, down 37% compared to
the second quarter of 2023.
Net loss for the quarter was $0.2 million and reflected a
non-cash gain of $27.1 million on the change in the fair value of
warrants and contingent earnout liabilities. Non-GAAP net loss was
$21.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024. Adjusted
EBITDA for the quarter, was negative $15.0 million. For more
information regarding the company’s non-GAAP financial measures,
see “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.
Second quarter cash flow, excluding financing activities, was in
line with the company's forecast and improved more than 70% on a
year over year basis. The company ended the quarter with $3 million
in cash and cash equivalents.
Guidance
Given the uncertainty of timing of the company’s deferred orders
and other factors, the company is withdrawing its previously
announced financial guidance for fiscal year 2024.
About Velo3D:
Velo3D is a metal 3D printing technology company. 3D
printing—also known as additive manufacturing (AM)—has a unique
ability to improve the way high-value metal parts are built.
However, legacy metal AM has been greatly limited in its
capabilities since its invention almost 30 years ago. This has
prevented the technology from being used to create the most
valuable and impactful parts, restricting its use to specific
niches where the limitations were acceptable.
Velo3D has overcome these limitations so engineers can design
and print the parts they want. The company’s solution unlocks a
wide breadth of design freedom and enables customers in space
exploration, aviation, power generation, energy, and semiconductor
to innovate the future in their respective industries. Using
Velo3D, these customers can now build mission-critical metal parts
that were previously impossible to manufacture. The fully
integrated solution includes the Flow print preparation software,
the Sapphire family of printers, and the Assure quality control
system—all of which are powered by Velo3D’s Intelligent Fusion
manufacturing process. The company delivered its first Sapphire
system in 2018 and has been a strategic partner to innovators such
as SpaceX, Aerojet Rocketdyne, Lockheed Martin, Avio, and General
Motors. Velo3D has been named as one of Fast Company’s Most
Innovative Companies for 2023. For more information, please visit

Amounts herein pertaining to June 30, 2024 represent a
preliminary estimate as of the date of this earnings release and
may be revised upon filing our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with

Forward-Looking Statements:
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1996. The company’s actual
results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections
and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking
statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect”,
“estimate”, “project”, “budget”, “forecast”, “anticipate”,
“intend”, “plan”, “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “believes”,
“predicts”, “potential”, “continue”, and similar expressions are
intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the
company's expectations regarding its performance during the
remainder of 2024, the company's strategic realignment and
initiatives, the company’s expectations regarding its liquidity and
capital requirements, the company’s expectations regarding the
timing of deferred orders, the company’s expectations regarding its
potential cost savings, and the company’s other expectations,
beliefs, intentions or strategies for the future. These
forward-looking statements involve significant risks and
uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ
materially from the expected results. You should carefully consider
the risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section
of the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2023 (the “FY 2023 10-K”), which was filed by
the company with the SEC on April 4, 2024, the “Risk Factors”
section of the company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended June 30, 2024, which will be filed by the company
with the SEC no later than August 19, 2024 (the “Q2 2024 10-Q"),
and the other documents filed by the company from time to time with
the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to
differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking
statements. Most of these factors are outside the company’s control
and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such
differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the inability of
the company to execute its business plan, which may be affected by,
among other things, competition, the company’s liquidity
position//lack of available cash, the ability of the company to
grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with
customers and suppliers and retain its key employees; (2) the
company’s ability to continue as a going concern; (3) the company’s
ability to maintain its listing on the New York Stock Exchange; (4)
the company’s ability to service and comply with its indebtedness;
(5) the company’s ability to raise additional capital in the
near-term; (6) the possibility that the company may be adversely
affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors;
and (7) other risks and uncertainties described in the FY 2023 10-K
and the Q2 2024 10-Q, including those under “Risk Factors” therein,
and in the company’s other filings with the SEC. The company
cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive and
not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements,
including projections, which speak only as of the date made. The
company does not undertake or accept any obligation to release
publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements
to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events,
conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is
based.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
The information in the table below sets forth the non-GAAP
financial measures that the company uses in this release. Because
of the limitations associated with these non-GAAP financial
measures, “Non-GAAP Net Loss”, “EBITDA”, “Adjusted EBITDA” and
“Non-GAAP Operating Expenses”, should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in
accordance with GAAP. The company compensates for these limitations
by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using Non-GAAP Net
Loss, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP Operating Expenses on a
supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of the
non-GAAP financial measures below and not rely on any single
financial measure to evaluate the company's business.
