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.”

“We continue to execute on our long term strategy to grow through innovation and bring industrial production to the point of need. Demand for our solution is growing globally as our customers identify more and more opportunities to cut costs, save time, and reduce physical inventories while building efficiencies to their own production lines,” said Shai Terem, President and CEO of Markforged. “With our upcoming new platforms and capabilities, we are confident in our ability to accelerate our growth in 2024. We also continue to prudently manage our costs, keeping us on a firm path to profitability.”

Business Highlights

  • Demand Grows Globally. Demand for The Digital Forge continued to grow globally in Q2, even in the face of the high cost of capital environment which is restricting capital expense investments. As such, while conversions to close deals are still challenging in the short term, Markforged is confident in its longer term growth projection, especially with upcoming product releases.
  • Significant Tier 1 Automotive Win. In Q2, Markforged completed a very important and strategic transaction with a global automotive leader to drive flexibility and cost savings by reducing their reliance on physical inventory. The sale included a fleet of both advanced composite printers and metal systems as part of a multi-year strategic initiative. This win exemplifies how Markforged’s platform of hardware, materials and software, and growing distributed network of printers, are uniquely positioned to proactively capitalize on the growing market opportunity for point of need industrial production.
  • Building Operational Efficiencies. Markforged remains focused on building operational efficiencies and driving margin expansion in pursuit of profitable, sustainable growth. Non-GAAP gross margins are tracking toward the upper end of 2023 guidance while Markforged remains on track to achieve full production scale for the FX20. The company continues to focus on prudently managing operating expenses, which were down 11% year-over-year on a non-GAAP basis and on finding additional working capital efficiencies. These efforts helped lower Markforged’s year-to-date cash burn from operations by 26% year-over-year.
  • More Innovation To Accelerate Growth. For the last two years, Markforged has been hard at work on multiple new product innovations that accelerate production at the point of need and increase its addressable market. Markforged has plans for multiple new and exciting product introductions in the second half of 2023 which further enhance their current platform and should contribute to accelerating growth in 2024.

Guidance

Markforged is maintaining its revenue guidance to be within the range of $101.0 million - $110.0 million. In accordance with similar seasonality trends within its industry, Markforged anticipates Q3 revenues to be mostly in-line with Q2 and expects revenues to see the typical end of year ramp up in Q4.

Considering our strong execution in the first half of the year, Markforged now believes that there is more opportunity for non-GAAP gross margins to be within the mid to upper range of our guidance of 47% - 49%, for fiscal year 2023. Furthermore, the company is confident that non-GAAP gross margins will continue to improve toward historical levels that are above 50% in 2024 and beyond.

Markforged plans to continue its disciplined approach to operating expenses and as such, expects operating expenses for fiscal year 2023 to decline as a percentage of revenue as well as in absolute terms year-over-year, resulting in a lower expected operating loss in the range of $54.0 - $57.0 million. Accordingly, EPS loss per share is expected to be in the range of $0.25 - $0.27.

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 increased “non-recurring costs'' by $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2022. The exclusion of amortization impacts non-GAAP net profit (loss) by $5.0 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. 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.
