Operating expenses for the quarter rose sequentially to $28.2 million, primarily the result of increased sales and marketing costs to fund the Company’s global expansion plans as well as higher research and development investment. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which excluded stock-based compensation expense of $5.0 million, was $23.2 million.
Net loss for the quarter was $65.3 million. Non-GAAP net loss, which excludes loss on fair value of warrants, loss on fair value of contingent earnout liabilities and stock-based compensation, was $23.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter, excluding loss on fair value of warrants, loss on fair value of contingent earnout liabilities and stock-based compensation, was a loss of $22.0 million. For more information regarding the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures, see “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.
The Company ended the quarter with a strong balance sheet with $186 million in cash and investments. As a result, the Company believes it has the liquidity for ongoing technology investments as well as providing the resources needed to fund its growth plans.
Guidance
For fiscal year 2022, given its strong first quarter results and increasing backlog, the Company’s previous guidance remains unchanged.
- Revenue - $89 million
- Total bookings – 47-49
- Total shipments – 47-49
- Sapphire XC shipments – 23-25
- New customer additions – 23-25
The Company will host a conference call for investors this afternoon to discuss its first quarter 2022 performance at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time. The call will be webcast and can be accessed from the Events page of the Investor Relations section of Velo3D’s website at https://ir.velo3d.com/.
About Velo3D:
Velo3D is a metal 3D printing technology company. 3D printing—also known as additive manufacturing (AM)—has a unique ability to improve the way high-value metal parts are built. However, legacy metal AM has been greatly limited in its capabilities since its invention almost 30 years ago. This has prevented the technology from being used to create the most valuable and impactful parts, restricting its use to specific niches where the limitations were acceptable.
Velo3D has overcome these limitations so engineers can design and print the parts they want. The company’s solution unlocks a wide breadth of design freedom and enables customers in space exploration, aviation, power generation, energy and semiconductor to innovate the future in their respective industries. Using Velo3D, these customers can now build mission-critical metal parts that were previously impossible to manufacture. The end-to-end solution includes the Flow print preparation software, the Sapphire family of printers and the Assure quality control system—all of which are powered by Velo3D’s Intelligent Fusion manufacturing process. The company delivered its first Sapphire system in 2018 and has been a strategic partner to innovators such as SpaceX, Honeywell, Honda, Chromalloy and Lam Research. Velo3D has been named to Fast Company’s prestigious annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2021.

Amounts herein pertaining to March 31, 2022 represent a preliminary estimate as of the date of this earnings release and may be revised upon filing our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). More information on our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 will be provided upon filing our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC.
Forward-Looking Statements:
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1996. The Company’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect”, “estimate”, “project”, “budget”, “forecast”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “believes”, “predicts”, “potential”, “continue”, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company’s guidance for full year 2022 (including the Company’s estimates for revenue, total Sapphire bookings, total Sapphire shipments, Sapphire XC shipments and new customer additions), the Company’s expectations regarding its pricing, improved production efficiencies and gross margin during 2022, the Company’s strategic priorities for 2022 (including the Company’s market and customer expansion plans), the Company’s expectations regarding its liquidity and capital requirements, and the Company’s other expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies for the future. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (the “FY 2021 10-K”), which was filed by the Company with the SEC on March 28, 2022 and the other documents filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the merger transaction, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the Company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its key employees; (2) costs related to the merger transaction; (3) changes in the applicable laws or regulations; (4) the possibility that the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (5) the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic; and (6) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time described in the FY 2021 10-K, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in the Company’s other filings with the SEC. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive and not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, including projections, which speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to help it make strategic decisions, establish budgets and operational goals for managing its business, analyze its financial results and evaluate its performance. The Company also believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures in this release provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing the Company’s core business and results of operations over multiple periods. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the way that these measures are calculated. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release should not be considered as the sole measure of the Company’s performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
The information in the table below sets forth the non-GAAP financial measures that the Company uses in this release. Because of the limitations associated with these non-GAAP financial measures, “Non-GAAP Net Loss”, “EBITDA”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, and “Adjusted Operating Expenses”, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using Non-GAAP Net Loss, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Operating Expenses on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business.
The following tables reconcile Net loss to Non-GAAP Net Loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA and Total Operating Expenses to Adjusted Operating Expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the three months ended December 31, 2021:
