3D Systems DDD reported first-quarter 2025 non-GAAP loss of 21 cents per share, wider than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 13 cents. The company had incurred a loss of 17 cents per share in the year-ago quarter.
DDD reported revenues of $94.5 million, which declined 8.1% year over year. The top line also missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3.91%. The decline was primarily attributed to weaker materials sales, largely attributed to customer inventory management in the dental aligner market. This headwind offsets growth achieved in new hardware systems and related services.
The company’s challenging first-quarter performance negatively impacted investor sentiment, leading to a decline of 21.57% in its share price in the pre-market trading on Tuesday. Year to date, shares of DDD have plunged 21.3%, underperforming the Zacks Industrial Products sector’s decline of 5.4%.
Product revenues declined 14.6% year over year to $54.7 million in the first quarter, contributing 57.9% to total revenues.
