Dr. Ederer continued, “We reaffirm our full year 2016 guidance of revenues between kEUR 28,000 and kEUR 30,000 for the Group.”
First Quarter 2016 Results
Revenues for the first quarter of 2016 decreased by 12.9% to kEUR 4,870 compared to kEUR 5,589 in the first quarter of 2015.
Revenues from our Systems segment, which focuses on the development, production and sale of 3D printers, decreased 1.2% to kEUR 2,783 in the first quarter of 2016 from kEUR 2,817 in last year’s first quarter. The Company delivered three new printers in the first quarter of 2016, compared to four printers (two new and two used) delivered in last year’s first quarter. Systems revenues also include all revenues from consumables, spare parts and maintenance. Systems revenues represented 57.1% of total revenues in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 50.4% in last year’s first quarter.
Revenues from our Services segment, which focuses on the printing of on-demand parts for our customers, decreased 24.7%, to kEUR 2,087 in the first quarter of 2016 from kEUR 2,772 for the same quarter last year. This was mainly due to lower revenue contribution from our subsidiary voxeljet UK Ltd. (“voxeljet UK”), which was successfully restructured in late 2015. The revenue contribution of voxeljet UK was kEUR 117 compared to kEUR 912 in last year’s first quarter. Moreover, revenue contribution from voxeljet AG for the first quarter of 2016 was lower than in the last year’s same period. This was partially offset by a higher revenue contribution from our subsidiary voxeljet America Inc. (“voxeljet America”).
Cost of sales was kEUR 3,539 for the first quarter of 2016 compared to kEUR 3,710 for the first quarter of 2015.
Gross profit was kEUR 1,331 in the first quarter of 2016 compared to kEUR 1,879 in the first quarter of 2015. This was due to lower gross profit contributions from voxeljet AG as well as voxeljet UK, whereas the gross profit contribution from voxeljet America improved significantly. Gross profit margin decreased to 27.3% in the first quarter of 2016 from 33.6% in the first quarter of 2016.
Gross profit for our Systems segment decreased to kEUR 693 in the first quarter of 2016 from kEUR 772 in the first quarter of 2015. The gross profit margin for this segment decreased to 24.9% in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 27.4% in the first quarter of 2015. The decrease resulted mainly from two of the three 3D printers sold in the first quarter of 2016 being equipped with new processes and products incorporating new processes typically contribute lower gross profit at the beginning of the product life cycle. Furthermore, higher headcount costs related to our growth strategy led to lower gross profit. As of March 31, 2016, 68 people were employed in the Systems segment, compared to 41 as of March 31, 2015.
Gross profit for our Services segment decreased to kEUR 638 in the first quarter of 2016 from kEUR 1,107 in the first quarter of 2015. The gross profit margin for this segment decreased to 30.6% in the first quarter of 2016 from 39.9% in the first quarter of 2015. This was mainly related to lower gross profit contributions from voxeljet AG, as well as voxeljet UK due to a lower utilization ratio. This was partially offset by higher gross profit and gross profit margin contributions from voxeljet America. Gross profit margin highly depends on the degree of capacity utilization. A ramp-up in Services revenues would lead to a stronger gross profit margin.
Selling expenses were kEUR 1,203 for the first quarter of 2016 compared to kEUR 1,416 in the first quarter of 2015. The decrease of kEUR 213 was the result of lower selling expenses for voxeljet UK. As part of the voxeljet UK restructuring, headcount of our sales force decreased from eight employees in the first quarter of 2015 to one employee in the current year’s same period.
Administrative expenses were kEUR 1,096 for the first quarter of 2016 compared to kEUR 1,619 in the first quarter of 2015. This decrease of kEUR 523 was the result of lower administrative expenses for voxeljet UK due to the restructuring. In addition, consulting fees decreased significantly due to a lower number of ongoing projects.
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses decreased to kEUR 1,307 in the first quarter of 2016 from kEUR 1,560. The decrease of kEUR 253 was mainly due to the restructuring of voxeljet UK, which resulted in the cancellation of research and development activities in UK, partially offset by higher research and development expenses for voxeljet AG due to an increase in headcount of 6 employees compared to the first quarter of 2015.
Other operating expenses in the first quarter of 2016 were kEUR 1,129 compared to kEUR 206 in the prior year period. This was mainly due to expenses from foreign currency transactions amounting to kEUR 759 (Q1 2015: kEUR 100).
Other operating income was kEUR 317 for the first quarter of 2016 compared to kEUR 1,456 in the first quarter of 2015. This was mainly due to gain from foreign currency transactions amounting to kEUR 37 in the first quarter of 2016 compared to kEUR 924 in last year’s same period. In addition, other operating income included the release of deferred income amounting to kEUR 74 in the first quarter of 2016 compared to kEUR 304 in the comparative period.
The increase of losses and the decrease of gains from foreign currency transactions were primarily driven by the valuation of the intercompany loans granted by voxeljet AG to its UK and U.S. subsidiaries. The loans are denominated in GBP and USD, respectively. The financial impact reflects the strengthening of the euro, which has gained against the GBP and USD in the first quarter of 2016 whereas in last year’s same period the effect was in the opposite direction.
Operating loss was kEUR 3,087 in the first quarter of 2016, compared to an operating loss of kEUR 1,466 in the prior year period. Our operating loss in the first quarter of 2016 was a result of lower gross profit contribution from both segments Systems and Services as well as a negative net impact from foreign exchange valuation amounting to kEUR 721 compared to a positive net impact of kEUR 824 in last year’s same period. This was partially offset by lower operating expenses within the functions R&D, sales and marketing as well as administration.
Financial result was negative kEUR 27 in the first quarter of 2016, compared to a financial result of negative kEUR 99 in the prior year period. The decrease in interest expense was mainly driven by the reduced number of finance leases after the restructuring of voxeljet UK in 2015.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2016 was kEUR 3,114, or EUR 0.84 per share, as compared to net loss of kEUR 1,630, or EUR 0.49 per share, in the first quarter of 2015.
Based on a conversion rate of five American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) per ordinary share, net loss was EUR 0.17 per ADS for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to net loss of EUR 0.10 per ADS in the prior year period.
Business Outlook
We reaffirm our revenue guidance in a range of between kEUR 28,000 and kEUR 30,000 for the year ending December 31, 2016.
Our revenue guidance for the second quarter of 2016 is in the range of kEUR 6,500 to kEUR 7,000.
The primary drivers of the Company’s anticipated revenue growth for the year ending December 31, 2016 are expected to be: (1) increased global Systems sales; (2) continued Services revenue growth at its facility in Friedberg, Germany; (3) contribution from voxeljet America, which began operating in January 2015; and (4) offset by a smaller revenue contribution from voxeljet UK after the restructuring in the fourth quarter of 2015.
Our total backlog of 3D printer orders at March 31, 2016 was kEUR 5,407, which represents eight 3D printers. This compares to a backlog of kEUR 5,613, representing nine 3D printers, at December 31, 2015. As production and delivery of our printers varies and is characterized by lead times between three and nine months, the conversion rate of order backlog into revenue is dependent on the equipping process for the respective 3D printer as well as the timing of customers’ requested deliveries.
At March 31, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of kEUR 1,589 and held kEUR 30,727 of investments in three bond funds and one note receivable which are included in current financial assets on our consolidated statement of financial position.
voxeljet India Pvt. Ltd at Pune
On November 30, 2015, we established our subsidiary voxeljet India Pvt. Ltd ("voxeljet India") to pursue opportunities in the industrial 3D printing market in India. voxeljet India is headquartered in the city of Pune, a large automotive and manufacturing center near Mumbai. Similar to our already established subsidiaries, we plan to establish a service center for the on-demand manufacture of 3D-printed molds within the next 18 months. The new Indian subsidiary will also support selling activities related to the sale of 3D printers in the South Asian market. The capitalization of voxeljet India shall be INR 20.0 million (€0.3 million). On January 21, 2016, we injected approximately two-thirds of the required capital, amounting to INR 13.3 million (€0.2 million).
voxeljet China Co., Ltd at Suzhou
On December 1, 2015, we signed a definitive agreement to form a new entity with Suzhou Meimai Fast Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd. ("Meimai") to pursue opportunities in the industrial 3D printing market in China. Among the indirect shareholders of Meimai are MK Technology GmbH ("MK Technology") and Metang Novatech Shanghai Co., Ltd. ("Metang"). Metang is a long-standing distribution partner of voxeljet AG in China. The new entity is called voxeljet China Co., Ltd. ("voxeljet China"). voxeljet China received its business license in March 2016 and voxeljet AG injected € 0.9 million of cash in April 2016. The capitalization of voxeljet China will occur in stages and involve the contribution of certain assets and transfer of executory contracts, primarily a rent free lease, by Meimai. voxeljet AG will own at least 70% of the equity in voxeljet China and the interest owned by Meimai after its contributions will be subject to put and call options.
voxeljet China is headquartered in the city of Suzhou, near Shanghai, and is expected to begin providing on-demand part services from a temporary facility in the third quarter of 2016. The two parties are in the early planning stages for a larger facility, which is expected to be similar in size to our existing service facilities in Germany and the United States. voxeljet China will also support selling activities related to the sale of 3D printers in the East Asian market.

The fair value of the Company’s investments in the bond funds was determined based on the unit prices quoted by the respective fund management company.
The fair value of long-term debt was determined using discounted cash flow models based on the relevant forward interest rate yield curves. The fair value of finance lease obligations was determined using discounted cash flow models on market interest rates available to the Company for similar transactions at the relevant date.
Due to their short maturity and the current low level of interest rates, the carrying amounts of credit lines and bank overdrafts approximate fair value.
