THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(amounts

|
Basis of
Presentation
|
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of 3D Systems Corporation and its
subsidiaries (collectively, the Company). All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America (GAAP) and the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) applicable
to interim reports. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial
statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements included in the Companys
Form 10-K
(Form 10-K)
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments, consisting of adjustments of a normal
recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods
presented. The results of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual
results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform
to current year presentation.
Components of inventories, net at March 31, 2008 and

NOTES TO
THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
On February 28, 2008, the Company purchased certain
equipment from its former customer, Tangible Express, LLC. Of
the $5,300 of equipment purchased from Tangible Express, $3,002
was included in construction in progress at March 31, 2008
and the balance was in finished goods inventory. The Company
believes that the costs to place the Tangible Express equipment
in service will be nominal.
Depreciation and software amortization expense for the three
months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was $950 and $1,043,
respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2008 and
2007, the Company recognized software amortization expense of
$162 and $114, respectively, for its capitalized enterprise
resource planning (ERP) system.
The Company holds approximately $3,454 of assets related to its
Grand Junction facility, net of accumulated depreciation, as
assets held for sale, comprised primarily of $3,018 of building
and improvements, net of accumulated depreciation, and $436 of
land associated with the facility on its condensed consolidated
balance sheets, where they have been recorded as assets held for

Industrial
development bonds
The Companys debt at March 31, 2008 and
December 31, 2007 was $3,205 and $3,325, respectively, and
represented industrial revenue bonds related to the Grand
Junction facility. (See Note 3.) The interest rate at
March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was 2.31% and
3.52%, respectively. On May 7, 2008, the bank waived the
Companys non-compliance with the financial covenants set
forth in this facility for the period ended March 31, 2008
in consideration of a $32 non-refundable waiver fee.
The Company ceased operations at its Grand Junction facility at
the end of April 2006. The facility is currently listed for sale
or lease. Upon sale of the Grand Junction facility, the Company
expects to pay off the industrial development bonds. Following
cessation of operations at the Grand Junction facility, the
Company reclassified these bonds from long-term debt to current
installments of long-term debt. Once the Companys
obligations under these bonds have been satisfied, the Company
expects the $1.2 million of cash restricted as part of the
industrial revenue bond agreement to be released to the Company.
Such restricted cash is held on deposit as partial security for
the Companys obligations under the industrial revenue
bonds discussed above, and therefore is not available to the
Company for its general use.

Hedging
Activities and Financial Instruments
|
The Company conducts business in various countries using both
the functional currencies of those countries and other
currencies to effect cross border transactions. As a result, the
Company is subject to the risk that fluctuations in foreign
exchange rates between the dates that those transactions are
entered into and their respective settlement dates will result
in a foreign exchange gain or loss. When practicable, the
Company endeavors to match assets and liabilities in the same
currency on its balance sheet and those of its subsidiaries in
order to reduce these risks. The Company also, when it considers
it to be appropriate, enters into foreign currency contracts to
hedge exposures arising from those transactions. The Company has
not adopted hedge accounting under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133,

No dilutive securities were included in the diluted weighted
average shares outstanding for the three months ended
March 31, 2008 and 2007 because the effect of their
inclusion would have been anti-dilutive; that is, they would
have reduced net loss per share.
The Company used effective tax rates of (11.7%) and (13.0%) for
the three months ended March 31, 2008 and March 31,
2007, respectively.
Tax years 2004 to 2007 remain subject to examination by the
U.S. Internal Revenue Service. Should the Company utilize
any of its U.S. loss carryforwards, which date from 1997,
these would be subject to examination. The Company files income
tax returns (which are open to examination beginning in the year
shown in parentheses) in France (2004), Germany (2000), Japan
(2003), Italy (2003), Switzerland (2003) and the United
Kingdom (2005).
The Company operates in one reportable business segment in which
it develops, manufactures and markets worldwide
3-D
modeling, rapid prototyping and manufacturing systems designed
to reduce the time it takes to produce three-dimensional
objects. The Company conducts its business through operations in
the United States, sales and service offices in the European
Community (France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Italy) and
the Asia-Pacific region (Japan and Hong Kong), and a research
and production facility in Switzerland. Revenue from
unaffiliated customers attributed to Germany includes sales by
the Companys German unit to customers in countries other
than Germany. The Company has historically disclosed

Commitments
and Contingencies
|
On March 14, 2008, DSM Desotech Inc. filed a complaint in
an action titled DSM Desotech Inc. v. 3D Systems
Corporation in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Illinois (Eastern Division) asserting that the
Company engages in anticompetitive behavior with respect to
resins used in large-frame stereolithography machines. The
complaint further asserts that the Company is infringing two of
DSM Desotechs patents relating to stereolithography
machines. The Company intends to vigorously contest all of the
claims asserted by DSM Desotech.
The Company is also involved in various other legal matters
incidental its business. The Companys management believes,
after consulting with counsel, that the disposition of these
other legal matters will not have a material effect on the
Companys consolidated results of operations or
consolidated financial position.

Fair
Value Measurements
|
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements. (SFAS No. 157)
SFAS No. 157 introduces a framework for measuring fair
value and expands required disclosure about fair value
measurements of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157
for financial assets and liabilities is effective for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007, and the Company
has adopted the standard for those assets and liabilities as of
January 1, 2008 and the impact of adoption was not
significant.
11
3D
SYSTEMS CORPORATION
NOTES TO
THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the exchange price
that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a
liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous
market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants on the measurement date.
SFAS No. 157 also establishes a fair value hierarchy
which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable
inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when
measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of
inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1
prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities;
quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs
that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market
data for substantially the full term of the assets or
liabilities.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by
little or no market activity and that are significant to the
fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value
for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach
uses prices and other relevant information generated by market
transactions involving identical or comparable assets or
liabilities.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring
basis are summarized below:

No. 157-2
delayed the effective date of FAS No. 157 until fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim
periods within those fiscal years, for all nonfinancial assets
and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are
recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial
statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). We are
assessing the impact FAS No. 157 will have on the
Companys consolidated financial statements.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
|
In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159,
The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 115 (FAS No. 159), which
became effective January 1, 2008. FAS No. 159
permits companies to choose to measure certain financial assets
and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and
losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected
are reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The
implementation of this standard did not have a material impact
on the Companys consolidated financial position and
results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(revised
2007), Business Combinations
(SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 141R
provides revised guidance on how acquirors recognize and measure
the consideration transferred, identifiable assets acquired,
liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill
acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R also
expands required disclosures surrounding the nature and
financial effects of business combinations.
SFAS No. 141R is effective, on a prospective basis,
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The
Company is currently assessing the impact of
SFAS No. 141R on its financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,
Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities. (SFAS No. 161)This
statement expands disclosures but does not change accounting for
derivative instruments and hedging activities. The statement
will become effective for the Company starting in
January 2009. The Company is currently assessing the impact
of SFAS No. 161 on its financial statements.

Item 2.
|
Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.
|
This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included
in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.
We are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may
affect our future performance that are discussed in greater
detail in the sections entitled Forward-Looking
Statements and Cautionary Statements and Risk
Factors at the end of this Item 2 and that are
discussed or referred to in Item 1A of Part II of this
Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.
Business
Overview
We design, develop, manufacture, market and service
3-D
modeling, rapid manufacturing, and prototyping systems and
related products and materials that enable complex
three-dimensional objects to be produced directly from computer
data without tooling, greatly reducing the time and cost
required to produce prototypes or customized production parts.
Our consolidated revenue is derived primarily from the sale of
our systems, the sale of the related materials used by the
systems to produce solid objects and the provision of services
to our customers.
Recent
Developments
Investigation
During the first quarter, we received several anonymous letters
alleging wrongdoing by us and certain members of our executive
management. The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors
promptly conducted a comprehensive investigation through
independent outside counsel. This investigation concluded and
confirmed that all the anonymous allegations were baseless and
that there had been no wrongdoing by us or our management.
Nevertheless, the investigation consumed considerable resources
and time and resulted in operational disruptions, including
disruptions to our sales process in the first quarter of 2008.
It also added $0.6 million of investigative expense to
SG&A in the first quarter.
Internal
controls
We have previously disclosed that at December 31, 2007
material weaknesses existed relating to our internal controls
over financial reporting with respect to the oversight and
review of our inventory costing system and the design and
operation of controls for certain inventory shipments and
recognition of the related revenue. We have completed a number
of remedial actions to correct these weaknesses, and we are
continuing to pursue additional remedial efforts to correct
them. See Part II, Item 4, Controls and
Procedures below.
As part of our remediation efforts, we have adopted a variety of
procedures to conduct additional detailed transaction reviews
and control activities with regard to our financial statements
for all periods that we have identified as being affected by the
material weaknesses described above. As a result of these
efforts, we believe that the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, fairly present in all material respects
our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
the periods presented and are free of material errors.
New
product developments and geographic expansion
activities
Since the beginning of 2008, we have continued our new product
development and geographic expansion activities, resulting in
the following:
|
|
|
|
|
In January 2008, we launched the
ProJettm
HD 3000 3-D
Production System, a new, professional, high-definition
3-D modeler
that is based on our patented and proprietary Multi-Jet Modeling
technology. The
ProJettm
HD 3000 3-D
Production System provides the choice of both high definition
and ultra high definition build modes in a single system and is
designed for a wide range of uses.
|
14
|
|
|
|
|
In February 2008, we launched our
ProJettm
DP 3000 3-D
Production System, a
3-D Modeler
that is designed to accurately, consistently and economically
manufacture precision
wax-ups for
dental professionals. The user of the
ProJettm
DP Production System scans a model, designs a virtual
wax-up using
3-D
software, then sends the data to the
ProJettm
Production System to print
wax-ups in
layers; the system can generate hundreds of units each cycle.
|
|
|
|
During March 2008, we began commercial shipments of our new,
V-Flashtm
Desktop Modeler to North American customers. Due to the timing
and delivery of these units, the related revenue was deferred
and not recognized in the first quarter. The
V-Flashtm
Desktop Modeler is designed to build three-dimensional models
within hours in a home or an office, enabling designers,
engineers, hobbyists and students to imagine, design and build
their ideas at their desks. The
V-Flashtm
Desktop Modeler is the first product based on our new Film
Transfer Imaging technology platform.

Opened the Japanese marketplace to our key
Accura®
materials, expanding our portfolio of proven, dependable
Accura®
materials in Japan.

These new products did not have a material effect on our revenue
for the first three months of 2008.
Summary
of 2008 first quarter financial results
As discussed in greater detail below, for the first quarter of
2008, revenue declined 13.9% to $31.8 million from
$36.9 million for the first quarter of 2007 primarily as a
result of lower unit volume.
Our loss from operations increased to $3.2 million for the
first quarter of 2008 from $2.1 million in the 2007
quarter. Our lower gross profit in the first quarter of 2008
arose primarily from our lower level of revenue.
Our operating expenses declined $1.3 million in the first
quarter of 2008 to $16.7 million from $18.0 million in
the previous years quarter. The decrease reflected lower
selling general and administrative expenses partially offset by
higher research and development expenses. We believe that our
quarterly operating expenses have begun to resume a more
normalized run rate, and accordingly we expect our SG&A
expenses for 2008 to fall into the range of $44 to
$52 million.

On a consolidated basis, revenue for the first quarter of 2008
declined by 13.9% to $31.8 million from $36.9 million
for the first quarter of 2007. The principal factors leading to
this $5.1 million decrease in consolidated revenue were
decreases arising from product unit volume and the unfavorable
combined effect of price and mix partially offset by the
favorable effect of foreign currency translation.
As used in this Managements Discussion and Analysis, the
combined effect of changes in product mix and average selling
prices, sometimes referred to as price and mix effects, relates
to changes in revenue that are not able to be specifically
related to changes in unit volume. Among these changes are
changes in the product mix of our materials and our systems as
the trend toward smaller, more economical systems has continued
and the influence of new systems and materials on our operating
results has grown. Our reporting systems are not currently
configured to produce more quantitative information regarding
the effect of price and mix changes on revenue. However, we
believe that changes in product mix, rather than changes in
average selling prices, are the principal contributor to the
price and mix effects that we experienced in the first quarters
of 2008 and 2007.
Systems orders and sales tend to fluctuate on a quarterly basis
as a result of a number of factors, including the types of
systems ordered by customers, customer acceptance of newly
introduced products, the timing of product orders and shipments,
global economic conditions and fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates. Our customers generally purchase our systems as
capital equipment items, and their purchasing decisions may have
a long lead time. Due to the relatively high list price of
certain systems and the overall low unit volume of systems sales
in any particular period, the acceleration or delay of orders
and shipments of a small number of systems from one period to
another can significantly affect revenue reported for our
systems sales for the period involved. Revenue reported
for systems sales in any particular period is also
affected by revenue recognition rules prescribed by generally
accepted accounting principles. However, as noted above,
production and delivery of our systems is generally not
characterized by long lead times, and backlog is therefore
generally not a material factor in our business.
At March 31, 2008 our backlog was approximately
$2.3 million, a 25.8% reduction from the $3.1 million
of backlog at December 31, 2007. We believe that our level
of backlog at March 31, 2008 is generally consistent with
the normal operating trends in our business.
In the absence of significant large-frame systems sales,
revenue from systems and other products decreased by
$5.4 million or 40.6% to $7.8 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 2008 from $13.2 million for the first
quarter of 2007 and comprised 24.7% of consolidated revenue in
the 2008 quarter compared to 35.7% in the 2007 period. The
decline arose primarily from a $6.6 million decrease in the
volume of new products and an unfavorable $0.2 million
combined effect of price and mix partially offset by a
$0.9 million increase in core systems revenue and a
$0.5 million favorable impact from foreign currency
translation.
Revenue from materials was also adversely impacted by the
absence of large-frame systems sales, which are typically
accompanied by significant initial material purchases to
charge-up
new systems and commence production, and decreased demand in the
U.S. market for large parts. Revenue from materials
declined by $0.4 million or 2.9% to $14.9 million for
the first quarter of 2008 from $15.4 million for the 2007
quarter and comprised 46.9% of consolidated revenue in the 2008
period compared to 41.6% in the 2007 period. This decrease was
primarily the result of the unfavorable $1.8 combined effect of
price and mix and a $0.8 million decrease in core materials
volume partially offset by a $1.2 million increase in new
materials volume and a $0.9 million of favorable foreign
currency translation. The materials increase as a percentage of
total revenue was primarily due to the proportionately higher
decline in revenue from systems and other products in the 2008
quarter.
Revenue from services increased by $0.6 million or 7.8% to
$9.0 million for the first quarter of 2008 from
$8.4 million for the 2007 period and increased to 28.4% of
consolidated revenue from 22.7% for the 2007 period. The
increase was primarily the result of favorable foreign currency
translation of $0.5 million and an increase in new products
services volume of $0.4 million partially offset by a
decrease in core products volume of $0.2 million.

Revenue from U.S. operations declined by $4.2 million
or 25.7% to $12.0 million from $16.2 million in the
first quarter of 2007. The decrease was due to lower volume
partially offset by the favorable combined effect of price and
mix.
Revenue from
non-U.S. operations
at March 31, 2008 declined by $1.0 million or 4.8% to
$19.7 million from $20.7 million at March 31,
2007. Revenue from
non-U.S. operations
as a percent of total revenue was 62.1% and 56.2%, respectively,
at March 31, 2008 and 2007. The decline in
non-U.S. revenue
excluding the effect of foreign currency translation was 14.2%
in the first quarter 2008.
Revenue from European operations declined by $0.4 million
or 2.7% to $15.7 million from $16.1 million in the
prior year period. This decrease was due to a $1.6 million
decline in the combined effect of price and mix, a
$0.5 million decline in volume partially offset by a
$1.6 million favorable foreign currency translation.
Revenue from Asia-Pacific operations declined by
$0.5 million or 11.9% to $4.1 million from
$4.6 million in the prior year period due primarily to the
unfavorable $0.8 million combined effect of changes in
price and mix and a decrease in volume of $0.2 million that
was partially offset by a $0.4 million in favorable foreign
currency translation.

Consolidated gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2008
decreased by 0.9 percentage points to 42.2% of revenue from
43.1% of revenue for the 2007 quarter. On a consolidated basis,
gross profit for the first
17
quarter of 2008 decreased by $2.5 million to
$13.4 million from $15.9 million in the first quarter
of 2007, primarily as a result of lower large-frame systems
revenue that had a $1.2 million adverse effect on the
absorption of overhead for the systems category of products. We
believe that this $1.2 million decline accounted for
approximately 80% of the margin decline for systems in the first
quarter of 2008. Gross profit was also negatively affected by
certain supply chain and third-part logistics inefficiencies,
which resulted in higher cost of goods sold and additional
freight charges, and by higher warranty costs. The increase in
cost of sales also included $1.3 million of unfavorable
foreign currency exchange effects related to the decline in the
U.S. dollar relative to other currencies. Most of this
currency effect relates to materials that we purchase or produce
outside of the United States.
The combined effect of the lower large-frame sales, the
unfavorable foreign exchange rate effects, supply chain
inefficiencies and warranty costs more than offset operational
improvements targeted to exceed our historical gross profit
margins. We are working on additional gross profit improvement
objectives which include returning certain third-party logistics
activities in-house and improving the quality of certain
warranty parts that third parties supply to us.
Systems gross profit for the first quarter of 2008 decreased by
$3.6 million or 72.2% to $1.4 million from
$5.0 million for the 2007 quarter, and gross profit margin
for systems decreased by 20.2 percentage points to 17.7% of
revenue from 37.9% of revenue in the 2007 quarter primarily due
to the decline in volume discussed above and the absorption of
fixed costs over fewer units.
Material gross profit for the first quarter of 2008 increased by
$0.2 million or 1.7% to $9.6 million from
$9.5 million for the 2007 quarter, and gross profit margin
for material increased by 2.8 percentage points to 64.6% of
revenue from 61.8% of revenue in the 2007 quarter.
Gross profit for services for the first quarter of 2008
increased by $1.0 million or 69.6% to $2.4 million
from $1.4 million for the 2007 quarter, and gross profit
margin for services increased by 9.7 percentage points to
26.5% of revenue from 16.8% of revenue in the 2007 quarter. The
improved gross profit was due to the combined effect of a
decline in fixed costs associated with our decision to cease
servicing certain legacy products and the favorable effect of
foreign currency translation on service revenue.
Operating
expenses
As shown in Table 4 total operating expenses decreased by
$1.3 million or 7.0% to $16.7 million in the first
quarter of 2008 from $18.0 million in the first quarter of
2007. This decrease was primarily due to $1.8 million in
lower selling, general and administrative expenses partially
offset by a $0.5 million of increased research and
development expenses, both of which are discussed below.

Selling,
general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses declined
$1.8 million to $13.1 million in the first quarter of
2008 compared to $14.9 million in the first quarter of 2007
related to:
|
|
|
|
|
A $1.5 million decline in severance and stock-based
compensation expense; and
|
|
|
|
$1.2 million of lower contract labor and consultant costs.
|
18
Partially offsetting the decline was:
|
|
|
|
|
$0.6 million of expenses associated with the investigation
discussed above;
|
|
|
|
A $0.5 million increase in bad debt expense; and
|
|
|
|
$0.5 million related to the decline in the U.S. dollar
exchange rate relative to other currencies.
|
We believe that our quarterly SG&A expenses have begun to
resume a more normalized run rate. We expect SG&A expenses
for the full year 2008 to fall into the range of
$44.0 million to $52.0 million.
Research
and development expenses
Research and development expenses increased by 16.5% to
$3.6 million in the first quarter of 2008 from
$3.1 million in the first quarter of 2007. Research and
development costs in the first quarter of 2008 included costs
associated with the launch of our
V-Flashtm
Desktop Modeler. We continue to work on selected new product
developments, and we expect to incur approximately
$13 million to $14 million of research and development
expenses for the full year 2008.
Loss
from operations
Our loss from operations for the first quarter of 2008 increased
by $1.1 million to $3.2 million from $2.1 million
in 2007. In the first quarter of 2008, declines in selling,
general and administrative expenses as discussed above partially
offset our lower consolidated revenue and lower gross profit and
increased research and development expenses.
The following table sets forth operating loss by geographic area
for the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007:

With respect to the U.S., in 2008 and 2007, the changes in
operating loss by geographic area reflected the same factors
relating to our consolidated operating loss that are discussed
above. As most of our operations outside of the U.S. are
conducted through sales and marketing subsidiaries, the changes
in operating income (loss) in our operations outside of the
U.S. in each of 2008 and 2007 resulted primarily from
changes in transfer pricing and in foreign currency translation.
Interest
and other expense, net
For the first quarter of 2008, we incurred $0.1 million of
expense from interest and other expense, net, that arose from
interest income generated from our higher cash balances and
lower interest expense during the first quarter. The lower
interest expenses resulted from the absence in 2008 period of
borrowings under the now expired Silicon Valley Bank credit
facility as well as the absence of our 6% convertible
subordinated debentures.
19
Provisions
for income taxes
We recorded a $0.4 million provision for income taxes in
the first quarter of 2008 and 2007. Our provision for income
taxes in both periods primarily reflects tax expense associated
with income taxes in foreign jurisdictions.
Net
loss
Our $3.7 million of net loss for the first quarter of 2008
resulted from our $3.2 million of loss from operations,
$0.1 million of net other expense and the $0.4 million
income tax provision, as discussed above.
Our $3.1 million of net loss for the first quarter of 2007
arose from our $2.1 million operating loss,
$0.7 million of interest and other expense, net and the
$0.4 million provision for income taxes, as discussed above.
For the three months ended March 31, 2008, our weighted
average common shares outstanding were 22.3 million, and on
a per share basis, the basic and diluted loss per share was
$0.17. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, our
weighted average common shares outstanding were
19.1 million, and on a per share basis, the basic and
diluted net loss per share was $0.16.
Financial
Condition and Liquidity
During the first three months of 2008, our primary sources of
liquidity were cash on hand and cash flow from financing
activities and our uses of liquidity were our use of cash for
operating and investing activities. We intend to replace the
credit facility that expired in 2007 with a new credit facility
as conditions in the credit markets and our performance improve
and we become able to negotiate acceptable terms for such a
facility. In the meantime, we do not expect to have a need for
bank borrowings given our current cash position. See
Cash flow and Outstanding debt and
capitalized lease obligations below.
Working
capital
Our net working capital decreased by $5.2 million to
$35.7 million at March 31, 2008 from
$40.9 million at December 31, 2007. Table 6 provides a
summary of the net changes in working capital items between
these two dates.

Our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents declined by
$7.8 million to $21.9 million from $29.7 million
at December 31, 2007. This decrease resulted from
$7.1 million of cash used in operating activities including
the $5.3 million purchase of Tangible Express
equipment, $2.1 million of cash used in investing
activities partially offset by $0.9 million of cash
provided by financing activities and a favorable
$0.5 million effect of exchange rate changes on cash. See
Cash Flow below.
Accounts receivable, net, decreased by $5.7 million to
$25.4 million at March 31, 2008 from
$31.1 million at December 31, 2007. This decline was
primarily attributable to the collection of year end 2007
accounts receivable balances, which were primarily comprised of
record sales from the fourth quarter. Accounts receivable
declined despite an increase of days sales outstanding to
73 days at March 31, 2008 from 64 days at
December 31, 2007. Our gross accounts receivable declined
by $4.9 million from December 31, 2007 to
March 31, 2008. Accounts receivable more than 90 days
past due increased to 14.9% of gross receivables at
March 31, 2008 compared to 5.5% of gross receivables at
December 31, 2007.

Inventories increased by $4.4 million to $24.4 million
at March 31, 2008 from $20.0 million at
December 31, 2007. This increase resulted from a
$4.7 million increase in finished goods inventory, a
$0.2 million increase in raw materials inventory, and a
$0.1 million increase in inventory held by assemblers that
was partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in
work-in-process
inventory. As discussed elsewhere, our purchase of equipment
from Tangible Express accounted for approximately
$2.3 million of the increase in finished goods inventory.
We maintained $2.8 million of inventory reserves at
March 31, 2008 and $2.3 million of such reserves at
December 31, 2007. The increase was due to additional
reserves provided for certain product lines nearing the end of
their life cycle.
In connection with our outsourcing activities with our
third-party assemblers, we sell to them components from time to
time of our raw materials inventory related to systems that they
assemble. We record those sales in our financial statements as a
product financing arrangement under SFAS No. 49,
Accounting for Product Financing Arrangements. At
March 31, 2008, we held as SFAS No. 49 inventory
$0.3 million of inventory sold to assemblers compared to
$0.2 million of such inventory at December 31, 2007,
and we had a corresponding accrued liability representing our
non-contractual obligation to repurchase assembled systems and
refurbished parts produced from such inventory.
With the outsourcing of substantially all of our equipment
assembly and refurbishment activities, the majority of our
inventory now consists of finished goods, including primarily
systems, materials and service parts, as our third-party
assemblers have taken over supply-chain responsibility for the
assembly and refurbishment of systems. As a result, we generally
no longer hold in inventory most parts for systems production or
refurbishment. In calculating inventory reserves, we direct our
attention to spare parts that we hold in inventory and that we
expect to be used over the expected life cycles of the related
systems, to inventory related to the blending of our engineered
materials and composites and to our ability to sell items that
are recorded in finished goods inventory, a large portion of
which are new systems.

Our prepaid expenses and other current assets increased by
$0.2 million to $4.7 million at March 31, 2008
from $4.4 million at December 31, 2007. The non-trade
receivables shown in Table 8, the inventory held by assemblers
shown in Table 7 and a related accrued liability in an amount
that corresponds to the book value of inventory held by
assemblers included in accrued liabilities on our Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet relate to the accounting for our
outsourcing arrangements pursuant to SFAS No. 49. The
non-trade receivables shown in Table 8 declined by
$0.6 million from December 31, 2007 to
$0.5 million at March 31, 2008 as a result of a
reduction in semi-finished systems and parts that our
third-party assemblers purchased from us to complete the
assembly of systems for which we had not received payment from
them at period end. VAT and sales tax refunds increased by
$0.6 million to $1.3 million at March 31, 2008.
The increase is due primarily to an increase in VAT for which we
expect to receive payment after March 31, 2008.
Accounts payable declined by $3.2 million to
$17.5 million at March 31, 2008 from
$20.7 million at December 31, 2007. The decline
primarily related to higher payables that corresponded to higher
revenue in the quarter ended December 31, 2007 compared to
the quarter ended March 31, 2008.
Customer deposits increased by $1.3 million as we deferred
the revenue in the first three months of 2008 related to certain
deposits made during the period.
Deferred revenue decreased by $0.1 million to
$11.6 million at March 31, 2008 from
$11.7 million at December 31, 2007 primarily due to a
net decrease in maintenance contracts, installation, training
and warranty revenue from the first three months of 2008
shipments.
The changes in the first quarter of 2008 that comprise the other
components of working capital not discussed above arose in the
ordinary course of business. These components of working capital
include $10.7 million of accrued liabilities,
$0.2 million in current installments of capitalized lease
obligations, $1.2 million of restricted cash and
$3.5 million in assets held for sale related to our Grand
Junction facility.
As discussed elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q,
we closed the Grand Junction facility late in April 2006 and
subsequently listed it for sale, with $3.5 million of net
assets related to that facility recorded on our Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet as assets held for sale. Also, at
March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 we have reflected
$3.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively, as a
current liability consisting of the outstanding principal amount
of the industrial development bonds that financed that facility,
in anticipation of the sale of the facility. See Notes 3
and 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Differences not discussed above between the amounts of working
capital item changes in the cash flow statement and the amounts
of balance sheet changes for those items are primarily the
result of foreign currency translation adjustments.

Cash flow
from operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2008, we used
$7.1 million of net cash for operating activities. This use
of cash consisted of our $3.7 million net loss and
$5.6 million of cash consumed by net changes in operating
accounts that were partially offset by $2.2 million of
non-cash items included in our net loss.
Changes in operating accounts that resulted in a use of cash
included the following:
|
|
|
|
|
An increase in inventories of $6.8 million;
|
|
|
|
A decrease in accounts payable of $5.1 million; and
|
|
|
|
A decrease in accrued liabilities of $2.0 million.
|
Changes in operating accounts that resulted in a source of cash
included the following:
|
|
|
|
|
a decrease in net receivables of $7.5 million; and
|
|
|
|
An increase in customer deposits of $1.2 million.
|
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2007, we used
$7.1 million of net cash for operating activities. This use
of cash consisted of a net loss of $3.1 million and a
change in operating accounts of $7.0 million that resulted
in a negative operating cash flow of $10.5 million.
Partially offsetting this amount was $3.0 million of
non-cash items in net loss.
Changes in operating accounts that resulted in a use of cash
included the following:
|
|
|
|
|
a decrease in accounts payable of $6.3 million;
|
|
|
|
An increase in inventories of $5.7 million;
|
|
|
|
a decrease in customer deposits of $4.2 million; and
|
|
|
|
a decrease in accrued liabilities of $1.1 million.
|
Changes in operating accounts that resulted in a source of cash
included the following:
|
|
|
|
|
a decrease in receivables of $6.6 million;
|
|
|
|
An increase in deferred revenues of $1.9 million; and
|
|
|
|
a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of
$1.0 million.
|
Cash flow
from investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities in the first three months
of 2008 increased to $2.1 million from $0.5 million
for the first three months of 2007. This increase was primarily
due to our higher level of 2008 capital expenditures.
23
Cash flow
from financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities increased to
$0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008
compared to a nominal amount in the 2007 period. This increase
resulted primarily from $1.1 million of net proceeds from
stock-based compensation, partially offset by debt payments.
Outstanding
debt and capitalized lease obligations
At March 31, 2008, industrial development revenue bonds and
capitalized lease obligations decreased to $12.0 million
from $12.2 million at December 31, 2007 primarily due
to scheduled payments of principal on our outstanding industrial
development bonds and capital lease installments.
Our outstanding industrial development revenue bonds and
capitalized lease obligations at March 31, 2008 and
December 31, 2007 were as follows:

Capitalized
lease obligations
Our outstanding capitalized lease obligations relate to two
lease agreements that we entered into during 2006 with respect
to our Rock Hill facility, one of which covers the facility
itself and the other of which covers certain furniture and
fixtures that we acquired for use in the facility. The carrying
value of the headquarters facility and the furniture and fixture
leases at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was
$8.8 million.
Industrial
development bonds
Our Grand Junction, Colorado facility was financed by industrial
development bonds in the original aggregate principal amount of
$4.9 million. At March 31, 2008 and December 31,
2007, the outstanding principal amount of these bonds was
$3.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively. Interest
on the bonds accrues at a variable rate of interest and is
payable monthly. The interest rate at March 31, 2008 and
December 31, 2006 was 2.31% and 3.52%, respectively.
Principal payments are due in semi-annual installments through
August 2016. We reclassified this indebtedness to current
indebtedness in 2006 in anticipation of the sale of the Grand
Junction facility. We have made all scheduled payments of
principal and interest on these bonds. The bonds are
collateralized by, among other things, a first mortgage on the
facility, a security interest in certain equipment and an
irrevocable letter of credit issued by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.
pursuant to the terms of a reimbursement agreement between us
and Wells Fargo. We are required to pay an annual letter of
credit fee equal to 1% of the stated amount of the letter of
credit.
This letter of credit is in turn collateralized by
$1.2 million of restricted cash that Wells Fargo holds,
which we reclassified as a short-term asset during 2006 in
anticipation of the sale of the Grand Junction facility. Wells
Fargo has a security interest in that restricted cash as partial
security for the performance of our
24
obligations under the reimbursement agreement. We have the
right, which we have not exercised, to substitute a standby
letter of credit issued by a bank acceptable to Wells Fargo as
collateral in place of the funds held by Wells Fargo.
The reimbursement agreement, as amended, contains financial
covenants that require, among other things, that we maintain a
minimum tangible net worth (as defined in the reimbursement
agreement) of $23 million plus 50% of net income from
July 1, 2001 forward and a fixed-charge coverage ratio (as
defined in the reimbursement agreement) of no less than 1.25 to
1.00. We are required to demonstrate our compliance with these
financial covenants as of the end of each calendar quarter. On
May 7, 2008, the bank waived our non-compliance with the
financial covenants set forth in this facility for the period
ended March 31, 2008 in consideration of a $32
non-refundable waiver fee.
Financial
instruments
We conduct business in various countries using both the
functional currencies of those countries and other currencies to
effect cross border transactions. As a result, we are subject to
the risk that fluctuations in foreign exchange rates between the
dates that those transactions are entered into and their
respective settlement dates will result in a foreign exchange
gain or loss. When practicable, we endeavor to match assets and
liabilities in the same currency on our balance sheet and those
of our subsidiaries in order to reduce these risks. We also,
when we consider it to be appropriate, enter into foreign
currency contracts to hedge exposures arising from those
transactions. We have not adopted hedge accounting under
SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivatives and
Hedging Activities, as amended by SFAS No. 137
and SFAS No. 138, and we recognize all gains and
losses (realized or unrealized) in cost of sales in our
Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The dollar equivalent of our foreign currency contracts and
their related fair values as of March 31, 2008 and
December 31, 2007 were as follows:

At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the notional
amount of these contracts at their respective settlement dates
amounted to $2.7 million and $2.9 million,
respectively. The 2008 and 2007 contracts related primarily to
purchases of inventory from third parties. The notional amount
of the purchase contracts aggregated CHF 2.7 million and
CHF 3.3 million, respectively (equivalent to
$2.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively, at
settlement date.)
The net fair value of all foreign exchange contracts at
March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 reflected
$0.1 million of unrealized gains at March 31, 2008 and
nominal losses at December 31, 2007. The foreign currency
contracts outstanding at December 31, 2007 expired at
various times between January 3, 2008 and February 13,
2008. The foreign currency contracts outstanding at
March 31, 2008 expire at various times between
April 2, 2008 and May 14, 2008.
Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded in cost of
sales in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Depending on
their fair value at the end of the reporting period, derivatives
are recorded either in prepaid and other current assets or in
accrued liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The total impact of foreign currency related items on our
Consolidated Statements of Operations was a $0.7 million
gain in the three months ended March 31, 2008 and a nominal
gain for 2007.

Stockholders
equity
Stockholders equity increased by $0.2 million to
$105.0 million at March 31, 2008 from
$104.8 million at December 31, 2007. This increase was
comprised of the following:
|
|
|
|
|
$1.1 million of net proceeds from stock option exercises
during the first three months of 2008;
|
|
|
|
$0.5 million of stock compensation expense recorded in
stockholders equity in accordance with
SFAS No. 123(R) during the first three months of
2008; and
|
|
|
|
$2.3 of foreign currency translation adjustments included in
accumulated other comprehensive income.
|
This $3.9 million increase in stockholders equity was
partially offset by our $3.7 million net loss reported for
the first three months of 2008.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,
The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 115 (SFAS No. 159), which
became effective January 1, 2008. SFAS No. 159
permits companies to choose to measure certain financial assets
and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and
losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected
are reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The
implementation of this standard did not have a material impact
on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(revised
2007), Business Combinations
(SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 141R
provides revised guidance on how acquirors recognize and measure
the consideration transferred, identifiable assets acquired,
liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill
acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R also
expands required disclosures surrounding the nature and
financial effects of business combinations.
SFAS No. 141R is effective, on a prospective basis,
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The
Company is currently assessing the impact of
SFAS No. 141R on our financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,
Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities. (SFAS No. 161) This
statement expands disclosures but does not change accounting for
derivative instruments and hedging activities. The statement
will become effective for the Company starting in January 2009.
We are currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 161
on its financial statements.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Significant Estimates
For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and
estimates, refer to Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations-Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in
our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Forward-Looking
Statements
Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q
that are not statements of historical or current facts are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking
statements may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties
and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance
or achievements to be materially different from historical
results or from any future results expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements.
In addition to statements that explicitly describe such risks
and uncertainties, readers are urged to consider statements in
future or conditional tenses or that include terms such as
believes, belief, expects,
intends, anticipates or
plans to be uncertain and forward-looking.
Forward-looking statements may include comments as to our
beliefs and expectations as to future events and trends
affecting our business. Forward-looking statements are based
upon managements current expectations concerning future
events and trends and are necessarily subject to uncertainties,
many of which are outside of our control. The factors stated
under the heading Cautionary Statements and Risk
Factors set forth below and those described in our other
26
SEC reports, including our
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2007, as well as other
factors, could cause actual results to differ materially from
those reflected or predicted in forward-looking statements.
Any forward-looking statements are based on managements
beliefs and assumptions, using information currently available
to us. We assume no obligation, and do not intend, to update
these forward-looking statements.
If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties
materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be
incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those
reflected in or suggested by forward-looking statements. Any
forward-looking statement you read in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q
reflects our current views with respect to future events and is
subject to these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions
relating to our operations, results of operations, growth
strategy and liquidity. All subsequent written and oral
forward-looking statements attributable to us or individuals
acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety
by this paragraph. You should specifically consider the factors
identified or referred to in this
Form 10-Q
and our other SEC reports, including our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2007, which would cause
actual results to differ from those referred to in
forward-looking statements.
Cautionary
Statements and Risk Factors
We recognize that we are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties that may affect our future performance. The risks

material also may impair our business operations. If any of the
following risks actually occur, our business, results of
operations and financial condition could suffer. In that event
the trading price of our Common Stock could decline, and you may
lose all or part of your investment in our Common Stock. The
risks discussed below also include forward-looking statements,
and our actual results may differ substantially from those
discussed in these forward-looking statements.

For a discussion of market risks at December 31, 2007,
refer to Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Market Risk, in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2007. During the first
three months of 2008, there were no material changes or
developments that would materially alter the market risk
assessment performed as of December 31, 2007, except as
discussed in the Liquidity and Capital Resource section under
Financial Instruments.
|
|
Item 4.
|
Controls
and Procedures.
|
Evaluation
of disclosure controls and procedures
As of March 31, 2008, we carried out an evaluation, under
the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Rules 13a-15(e)
and
15d-15(e) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act.)) pursuant to
Rules 13a-15
and 15d-15
under the Exchange Act. These controls and procedures are
designed to provide assurance that information required to be
disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and
forms and that
28
such information is accumulated and communicated to management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, in a manner that is intended to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosures.
As a result of this evaluation and recognizing the material
weaknesses that we identified in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2007, we determined that
our disclosure controls and procedures remained ineffective as
of March 31, 2008. In making this determination, we took
into account the remedial actions that we are taking, have taken
and have disclosed with respect to these material weaknesses and
our belief, which is discussed below, that, subject to the
testing of the effectiveness of our remedial actions as of
December 31, 2008, we have substantially completed the
remediation of those material weaknesses. Notwithstanding our
efforts, there is a risk that we ultimately may be unable to
achieve the goal of fully remedying these material weaknesses
and that the corrective actions that we have implemented and are
implementing may not fully remedy the material weaknesses that
we have identified and disclosed or prevent similar or other
control deficiencies or material weaknesses from having an
adverse impact on our business and results of operations or our
ability to timely make required SEC filings in the future.
In any case, based on a number of factors, including our
performance of manual procedures to provide assurance of the
proper collection, evaluation and disclosure of the information
included in our consolidated financial statements, management
has concluded that the consolidated financial statements
included in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q
fairly present, in all material respects, our financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods
presented in conformity with GAAP and that they are free of
material errors.
Internal
control over financial reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term
is defined in
Rules 13a-15(f)
and
15d-15(f)
under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial
reporting is a process designed under the supervision of our
principal executive and principal financial officers to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with GAAP.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting
as of March 31, 2008 based on the criteria established in
Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(COSO).
As a result of the material weaknesses described in our Annual
Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2007, our management
concluded that as of December 31, 2007 we did not maintain
effective internal control over financial reporting based on the
criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework
issued by COSO.
Since we identified those material weaknesses in connection with
the preparation of our financial statements for the period ended
December 31, 2007, we have been working to identify and
remedy the causes of the problems that led to the existence of
those material weaknesses, and we believe that:
|
|
|
|
|
we have identified the primary causes of and appropriate
remedial actions for these problems;
|
|
|
|
we have, except as otherwise noted below and subject to the
completion of testing that we are conducting and plan to
complete as of December 31, 2008, remedied substantially
all of these material weaknesses; and
|
|
|
|
we are continuing to implement additional appropriate corrective
measures to enable us to determine that those material
weaknesses have been fully remedied.
|
With respect to testing, we have adopted, and pursued during the
first quarter of 2008, a program that is designed to evaluate
whether the remedial actions we have taken have been in effect
for a sufficient period of time to determine their effectiveness
as well as to test the effectiveness of those remedial actions.
Notwithstanding our efforts, there is a risk that we ultimately
may be unable to achieve the goal of fully
29
remedying these material weaknesses and that the corrective
actions that we have implemented and are continuing to implement
may not fully remedy the material weaknesses that we have
identified or prevent similar or other control deficiencies or
material weaknesses from having an adverse impact on our
business and results of operations or our ability to timely make
required SEC filings in the future.
The remedial actions that we have taken during the first quarter
of 2008 to remedy these material weaknesses may be regarded as
material changes in our internal control over financial
reporting that have occurred since December 31, 2007. Those
remedial actions include the following:
1. With respect to a lack of oversight and review of our
inventory costing system, we:
|
|
|
|
|
Transitioned away from spreadsheet-based
look-ups and
calculations and
set-up
enterprise resource planning (ERP) system reports to
retrieve and validate data for various inventory accounts;
|
|
|
|
Set-up
reports and schedules in our ERP system to tie reserve amounts
into in order to better assure accurate information and
reporting;
|
|
|
|
Added an additional level of review for manual
calculations; and
|
|
|
|
Activated ERP system functionality to eliminate certain manual
processes.
|
2. With respect to the ineffective design and operation of
controls for certain inventory shipments and recognition of the
related revenue, we:
|
|
|
|
|
Worked with the third-party service provider that we utilize for
outsourcing logistics and warehousing of our spare-parts
inventory and certain of our finished goods supply activities to
provide more timely and accurate information; and
|
|
|
|
Implemented specific period-end cut-off testing to ensure that
revenue and expenses are being recorded in proper periods.
|
Other than the effect of the remedial actions discussed above,
there were no material changes in our internal control over
financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly
Report on
Form 10-Q
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.
|
Legal
Proceedings.
|
On March 14, 2008, DSM Desotech Inc. filed a complaint in
an action titled DSM Desotech Inc. v. 3D Systems
Corporation in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Illinois (Eastern Division) asserting that we engage
in anticompetitive behavior with respect to resins used in
large-frame stereolithography machines. The complaint further
asserts that we are infringing two of DSM Desotechs
patents relating to stereolithography machines. We intend to
vigorously contest all of the claims asserted by DSM Desotech.
We are also involved in various other legal matters incidental
to our business. Our management believe, after consulting with
counsel, that the disposition of these other legal matters will
not have a material effect on our consolidated results of
operations or consolidated financial position.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors as
previously disclosed in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2007.
