3D SYSTEMS CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 (Unaudited)

 

(1)  Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited 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 unaudited 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 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 Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”) for the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated 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 quarter ended March 31, 2015 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 presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

 

All amounts presented in the accompanying footnotes are presented in thousands, except for per share information.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance will be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2015-03 on its consolidated balance sheets.

 

No other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the first quarter of 2015, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

(2) Acquisitions

 

The Company completed one acquisition in the first quarter of 2015, which is discussed below.

 

On February 9, 2015, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares and voting rights of Cimatron Ltd. (“Cimatron”), a provider of integrated 3D CAD/CAM software and solutions for manufacturing. The fair value of the consideration paid for this acquisition, net of cash acquired, was $77,984, all of which was paid in cash. The operations of Cimatron have been integrated into the Company’s products and service revenues. The fair value of the consideration paid for this acquisition was allocated to the assets purchased and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, with any excess recorded as goodwill, and is included in the table below, which summarizes the first quarter 2015 acquisition. Factors considered in determination of goodwill include synergies, vertical integration and strategic fit for the Company.

 

The acquisition completed in the first quarter is not material relative to the Company’s assets or operating results; therefore, no proforma financial information is provided.

---

 

The Company’s purchase price allocation for the acquired company is preliminary and subject to revision as more detailed analyses are completed and additional information about the fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available. The amounts related to the acquisition are allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed and are included in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2015 as follows:

 

 

 

Subsequent Acquisition

 

On April 2, 2015, the Company acquired 65% of the equity interests in Wuxi Easyway Model Design and Manufacture Co. Ltd., a manufacturing service bureau and distributor of 3D printing and scanning products in China. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company has an option to acquire the remainder of the equity interests between the third and fifth anniversary of the closing.

Depreciation and amortization expense on property and equipment for the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was $4,709 and $3,036 respectively.

---

 

(5)  Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets other than goodwill at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were as follows:

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company capitalized $203 and $210, respectively, of costs incurred to internally develop and extend patents in the United States and various other countries.

 

Amortization expense of intangible assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was $14,517 and $9,204 respectively.

 

Annual amortization expense for intangible assets is expected to be $54,467,  $48,813,  $43,796,  $35,663 and $25,876 for the years ended 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

---

 

(7)  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. When appropriate, the Company enters into foreign currency contracts to hedge exposures arising from those transactions. The Company has elected not to prepare and maintain the documentation to qualify for hedge accounting treatment under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and therefore, all gains and losses (realized or unrealized) are recognized in "Interest and other expense, net”  in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Depending on their fair value at the end of the reporting period, derivatives are recorded either in prepaid expenses and other current assets or in accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

There were no foreign currency contracts outstanding at March 31, 2015 or at December 31, 2014. 

 

The condensed consolidated statements of operations for the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 include a foreign currency transaction loss of $2,194 and $205, respectively, which is included in interest and other expense, net.

 

The total impact of foreign currency translation on accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, reflects  a loss of $20,832 and $13, respectively.

 

(8) Borrowings

 

Credit Facility 

 

On October 10, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a $150,000 five-year revolving, unsecured credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, PNC Capital Markets LLC, as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, HSBC Bank USA, N.A., as Syndication Agent, and the other lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”). The Credit Agreement comprises a revolving loan facility that provides for advances in the initial aggregate principal amount of up to $150,000 (the “Credit Facility”).  Subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the Credit Agreement, the Company may, at its option and subject to customary conditions, request an increase in the aggregate principal amount available under the Credit Facility by an additional $75,000.  The Credit Agreement includes provisions for the issuance of letters of credit and swingline loans.

 

The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”).  Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Guarantors guarantee to the Lenders, among other things, all of the obligations of the Company and each other Guarantor under the Credit Agreement.  From time to time, the Company may be required to cause additional material domestic subsidiaries to become Guarantors under the Credit Agreement. 

 

Generally, amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin.  Base Rate advances bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the highest of (A) the Administrative Agent’s prime rate, (B) the Federal Funds Open Rate plus 0.5% or (C) the Daily LIBOR Rate for a one month interest period plus 1%, and (ii) an applicable margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.50% based upon the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio. LIBOR Rate advances bear interest at a rate based upon the London interbank offered rate for the applicable interest period, plus an applicable margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.50% based upon the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, (i) accrued interest on each loan bearing interest at the Base Rate is payable quarterly in arrears and (ii) accrued interest on each loan bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate is payable in arrears on the earlier of (A) quarterly and (B) the last day of each applicable interest payment date for each loan. The Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on October 10, 2019, at which time all amounts outstanding thereunder will be due and payable. 

  

The Company is required to pay certain fees in connection with the Credit Facility, including a quarterly commitment fee equal to the product of the amount of the average daily available revolving commitments under the Credit Agreement multiplied by a percentage that ranges from 0.20% to 0.25% depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as well as customary administrative fees. 

---

 

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and default provisions for a Credit Facility of this type, including, but not limited to, financial covenants, limitations on liens and the incurrence of debt, covenants to preserve corporate existence and comply with laws and covenants regarding the use of proceeds of the Credit Facility. The financial covenants include a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio, which is the ratio of consolidated total funded indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense), as defined in the Credit Agreement, of 3.00 to 1.00, and a minimum interest coverage ratio, which is the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to cash interest expense, of 3.50 to 1.00.  The Company is only required to be in compliance with the financial covenants as of the end of any fiscal quarter in which there are any loans outstanding at any time during such fiscal quarter. 

 

The payment of dividends on the Company’s common stock is restricted under provisions of the Credit Facility, which limits the amount of cash dividends that the Company may pay in any one fiscal year to $30,000.  The Company currently does not pay, and has not paid, any dividends on their common stock, and currently intends to retain any future earnings for use in their business. 

 

There was no outstanding balance on the Credit Facility as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

 

Capitalized Lease Obligations

 

The Company’s capitalized lease obligations include lease agreements that were entered into during 2006 with respect to the Company’s corporate headquarters located in Rock Hill, SC, and lease agreements assumed in the LayerWise acquisition. Total capitalized lease obligations decreased to $9,078 at March 31, 2015 from $9,434 at December 31, 2014, primarily due to the normal scheduled timing of payments.

 

Other debt

 

In connection with its acquisition of LayerWise, the Company assumed a portion of LayerWise’s outstanding bank debt, consisting of revolving credit facilities and term loans. The term loans bear interest at rates ranging from 1.34% to 5.40% as of March 31, 2015. The outstanding balance on the term loans was $66 and $127 as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. There were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facilities as of March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014. There is a 0.125% commitment fee on the unused portion of the facilities.

 

(9)  Stock-based Compensation Plans

 

The Company records stock-based compensation expense in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Stock-based compensation expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was as follows:

 

 

The number of shares and units of restricted common stock awarded and the weighted average fair value per share and unit during the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were as follows:

 

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company granted restricted stock awards covering 273 shares and units of common stock pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Incentive Stock Plan. As of March 31, 2015, 148 shares or units under awards remained subject to acceptance and 60 shares under awards were granted to executive officers of the Company during the quarter. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company granted restricted stock awards covering 233 shares of common stock pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Incentive Stock Plan, of which 30 shares were awarded to executive officers of the Company.

 

No shares or units of common stock pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Restricted Stock Plan were granted to Non-Employee Directors during the first quarter of 2015 or 2014.

(10)  International Retirement Plan

 

The following table shows the components of net periodic benefit costs and other amounts recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

 

 

 

(11)  Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) amounts. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to 3D Systems Corporation available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the applicable period. For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, restricted stock units were antidilutive because of the net loss, and, as such, their effect has not been included in the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share.

 

The following table reconciles basic weighted average outstanding shares to diluted weighted average outstanding shares at March 31, 2015 and 2014:

 

 

 

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, average common shares for basic and diluted loss per share was 111,731 and basic and diluted loss per share was $0.12.  For the quarter ended March 31, 2014, average common shares for basic and diluted earnings per share was 103,546 and basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.05.

 

(12)  Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” 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. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

 

 

---

 

For the Company, the above standard applies to cash equivalents. 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:

 

 

The Company did not have any transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3, of the fair value measurement hierarchy during the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

 

In addition to the financial assets included in the above table, certain of our non-financial assets and liabilities are to be initially measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. This includes items such as non-financial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value in a business combination (but not measured at fair value in subsequent periods) and non-financial, long-lived assets measured at fair value for an impairment assessment. In general, non-financial assets and liabilities including goodwill, other intangible assets and property and equipment are measured at fair value when there is an indication of impairment and are recorded at fair value only when impairment is recognized. The Company has not recorded any impairments related to such assets and has had no other significant non-financial assets or non-financial liabilities requiring adjustments or write-downs to fair value as of March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

 

(13)  Income Taxes

 

The Company’s effective tax rates were 34.6% and 42.0% for the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

The Company has not provided for any taxes on the unremitted earnings of its foreign subsidiaries, as the Company intends to permanently reinvest all such earnings outside of the U.S. We believe a calculation of the deferred tax liability associated with these undistributed earnings is impracticable.

 

Tax years 2011 through 2014 remain subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The Company has utilized U.S. loss carryforwards causing the years 1997 to 2007 to be subject to examination. The Company files income tax returns (which are open to examination beginning in the year shown in parentheses) in Australia (2009), Belgium (2010), Brazil (2014), China (2010), France (2011), Germany (2011), India (2012), Israel (2010), Italy (2009), Japan (2008), Korea (2009), Mexico (2014), Netherlands (2007), Switzerland (2008), the United Kingdom (2009) and Uruguay (2014).

 

(14)  Segment Information

 

The Company operates in one reportable business segment. The Company conducts its business through subsidiaries in the United States, a subsidiary in Israel that operates a research and production facility and sales and service offices, a subsidiary in Switzerland that operates a research and production facility, subsidiaries in France and Brazil that operate production facilities and sales and service offices, and other sales and service offices in Europe (Belgium, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy and the Netherlands), Israel and in Asia Pacific (Australia, China, India, Japan and Korea). The Company has historically disclosed summarized financial information for the geographic areas of operations as if they were segments in accordance with ASC 280, “Segment Reporting.” Financial information concerning the Company’s geographical locations is based on the location of the selling entity. Such summarized financial information concerning the Company’s geographical operations is shown in the following tables:
