Management Commentary
"The third quarter of 2020 was about execution and laying the foundation for a successful 2021 and we are very pleased to have made significant progress in each of the strategic initiatives that we established at the beginning of the year," said Mark K. Ruport, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sigma Labs. "On the financial front, our balance sheet expanded during the third quarter by
"During the third quarter of 2020, we announced a contract with a major oil and gas services company, following a successful Rapid Test and Evaluation (RTE) program. The conversion from our RTE program to beginning production deployment is a testament to the traction our enabling technology is garnering in the additive manufacturing industry. This followed last quarter's contract with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, a global leader in engineering and manufacturing to implement PrintRite3D. These large global manufacturers adopting PrintRite3D as their quality assurance system of choice continues to validate Sigma's technology and the need for a third party, standards-based system that can operate in a heterogeneous 3D printer environment.
"The strategic nature of our agreements with Additive Industries and Coherent combined with our partnership with DMG MORI cannot be overstated. Each provides leverage to our business model, increases our global reach, expands our footprint in the industry and adds more validation to our technology.
"We also expanded our addressable market opportunity with Printrite3D Lite and PriontRite3D DED. We are excited to have Coherent as our initial customer for PrintRite3D Lite and to work with Northwestern University, our initial customer for PrintRite3D DED. Each market offers significant opportunities for revenue growth while extending our IPQA technology across different processes on the manufacturing floor," continued Ruport.
"As we look into 2021, Sigma Labs will remain laser-focused on building leverage into our business model and expanding our reach and footprint in the industry. Our priorities are: driving multi-unit sales of PrintRite3D Production Series by end users that have validated our technology through the @Sigma RTE program; forming new strategic alliances and OEM contracts with both additive manufacturing hardware and software companies that provide sales leverage and market validation; and continued success with R&D organizations and universities. We look forward to sharing more on our developing story at upcoming investor conferences and virtual roadshows in the fourth quarter of 2020," concluded Ruport.
