Both our operating business and our financing activities with the completion of the sale and lease back transaction were very successful. In our Systems segment, we had a very strong order inflow and started with a new record-high order backlog into the new business year. Regarding our new VJET X 3D printers, we have now five units of this large, next generation 3D printer in operation at the Bavarian car maker and have realized revenue for all of them. In our on-demand printing segment Services, demand continues to be extremely good - both in

Selling expenses were kEUR 2,435 for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to kEUR 2,035 in the fourth quarter of 2021 and therefore significantly increased, which was due to higher personnel expenses related to salary raises. Shipping and packaging expenses as a main driver of the selling expenses could vary from quarter to quarter depending on quantity and types of products, as well as the destinations where those goods are being delivered.
Administrative expenses were kEUR 1,836 for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to kEUR 1,572 in the fourth quarter of 2021 and therefore increased. This was mainly due to higher personnel expenses related to salary raises as well as higher legal advisor fees related to the preparation of funding activities.
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses increased to kEUR 2,098 in the fourth quarter of 2022 from kEUR 1,377 in the fourth quarter of 2021. These expenses are usually driven by individual projects, especially through the consumption of material as well as the demand of external services and may differ on a quarter to quarter comparison. The quarter over quarter increase was mainly due to higher material expenses as well as higher labor costs related to various existing and future research and development projects. Also expenses for external services slightly increased.
Other operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 were kEUR 2,018 compared to kEUR 132 in the prior year period. This was mainly related to higher losses from foreign currency transactions, amounting to kEUR 1,982 for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to kEUR 59 in the last year’s fourth quarter. In the fourth quarter of 2021, an amount of kEUR 25 was recorded in other operating expenses, related to the fully write off of the investment in the joint venture
Other operating income was kEUR 5,762 for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to kEUR 767 in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was mainly due to the gain from the sale and leaseback transaction amounting to kEUR 4,335 compared to kEUR 0 in the comparative period. Furthermore, the increase in other operating income is due to the receipt of government grants amounting to kEUR 529 (fourth quarter 2021: kEUR 59) and cost reimbursements amounting to kEUR 284 (fourth quarter 2021: kEUR 110) for R&D expenses incurred in the fourth quarter 2022, respectively. Gains from foreign currency transactions, amounted to kEUR 462 for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to kEUR 490 in the last year’s same quarter.
The changes in foreign currency losses and gains were primarily driven by the valuation of the intercompany loans granted by the parent company to our US subsidiary.
Operating profit was kEUR 233 in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to an operating loss of kEUR 791 in the comparative period in 2021. The improvement was mainly due to a positive net impact of the quarter over quarter changes in other operating expenses and other operating income amounting to kEUR 3,109, mainly related to the gain from the sale and leaseback transaction with IntReal International Real Estate Kapitalverwaltungsgesellschaft mbH closed on
Financial result was negative kEUR 406 in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to a positive financial result of kEUR 1,955 in the comparative period in 2021. This was mainly due to the write-down of bifurcated embedded derivative financial instruments relating to the performance participation interest for tranche A and tranche B1 loan with EIB in third quarter of 2022, which resulted in zero finance expense or income from the revaluation of derivative financial instruments in fourth quarter of 2022. The write-down resulted from the early repayment of the Finance Contract with EIB in
