3D Systems reports Q2 EPS (7c), consensus (16c)

Reports Q2 revenue $94.8M, consensus $95.72M. Dr. Jeffrey Graves, president and CEO of 3D Systems (DDD) said, “We delivered improved profitability in the second quarter, reflecting an intense focus on our cost structure and operational efficiencies, in the face of a continuously challenging macroeconomic climate for our industry. Our cost savings initiatives, which we first announced in March, favorably impacted both gross margins and operating expenses on a sequential basis for the second quarter. Key elements of our cost and efficiency initiative include consolidation of our operational footprint, restructuring of our workforce, and various efficiency initiatives across the business. As announced, these savings initiatives will extend through mid-2026, paced in part by the rate at which real-estate leases for exited facilities are curtailed. We are benefiting from our prior efforts to fully in-source manufacturing and supply chain operations, an initiative which is now virtually complete and helping to offset headwinds from tariffs. In the second quarter, tariffs increased our costs by roughly $1 million, but were largely countered through improved operating efficiencies in manufacturing operations which supported our gross margin performance. Looking ahead we expect the impact of tariffs to continue impacting our operating costs as we move through the second half of the year.”
