NORTH HUNTINGDON, Pa. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — March 15, 2018 — The ExOne Company (NASDAQ: XONE) (“ExOne” or “the Company”), a global provider of three-dimensional (“3D”) printing machines and 3D printed and other products, materials and services to industrial customers, reported financial results today for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2017.

- Our customers operating Exerial™ machines are creating molds and cores in production environments, successfully enabling the 3D printing of unique component designs on their factory floors.
- We now have customer installations operating with cold hardening phenolic (CHP) binder on three continents and expect accelerated growth in 2018.
- Along with SGL Group, we recently announced the availability of CARBOPRINT™ 3D printed products, demonstrating the diversity of materials that can be printed with our binder jetting technology.
- Advancements made with our fine powder recoating technology are enabling the development of our large format fine powder machine, expected to be launched in 2018.
- We are expanding our material offerings in the tooling, filtration and energy markets.
We believe that these investments, along with our technology development roadmap for 2018, will drive continued double-digit revenue growth and accelerated adoption of our binder jetting technology in 2018 and beyond,” Mr. McCarley noted.
