CEO MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS:

We would like to update you - our shareholders and prospective shareholders - with additional perspective on our continued record performance, organizational changes, and an outlook on exciting times to come.

To start with – we want to emphasize that in contrast to many hi-tech corporations’ reporting results, especially industries like AM / 3D printing where no public company is profitable and most are shrinking in revenues – we relate to this document as well as to our “results” conference calls, as their name indicates: Update on Financial Results, with minimal “cosmetics” such as pictures and graphics of exciting products and the machines that manufacture them. Most of those can be found on our website: www.nano-di.com, which all of you are invited to visit and see. Nano Dimension has a breadth of technologies and products assortment, yet narrow and focused span of synergistic vertical markets. Both of those characteristics are critical to our success and major differentiators from many other AM/3D Printing players.

“Reshaping Nano” Beyond Revenue and Gross Margin

After much focus on revenue over the last 2-4 years, the market is returning to some element of reasonableness in the realigning of attention around the bottom-line. In this spirit, the Initiative was launched in mid-Q4/2023 and is critical as we reorient our financial objectives. It is specifically designed to enable Nano Dimension to become operating income positive in 2025, and potentially cash flow positive earlier. We have thought and will continue to think highly critically about our operating expenses across R&D, sales & marketing, and general & administrative costs. We made some notable changes in Q4/2023, including reducing the Company’s workforce worldwide by approximately 25% and shrinking the Executive Management group by 25%.

This Initiative has produced an estimated annualized savings of $30 million, which we expect to start reflecting in our Q1/2024 results.

It is important to note that while we are not yet delivering a positive bottom-line now, it is a choice based on our capital allocation to secure R&D innovation and establish go-to-market channels and customer relationships. We are positioning ourselves with a sharp focus on gross margin. It grew to 45%. This improvement indicates our clear direction toward a goal of over 50% gross margin, preferably close to 60%. At that level, we expect to be profitable. From there onward, we expect to see savings in operating expenses.

Customer and R&D Successes

In 2023, we saw numerous customer success stories. These are evident in new relationships with customers such as:

  • Sales to NASA,
  • Repeat sales to the Fraunhofer Institute,
  • Sales to one of the world’s largest computer hardware companies,
  • Sales to Western Armies,
  • Sales to Western Secret Services,
  • Sales to other defense establishments,
  • Multi-system sale that resulted in our largest single order ever.

Moreover, we are seeing these customer success stories across our product portfolio – from our systems for AME to micro-AM to AE robotics.

We are hearing from our customers more frequently with excitement relating to our deep learning-based AI capabilities. This is especially on the back of our announced efforts to develop our industrial AI solution from our DeepCube Group, which was originally developed for our proprietary manufacturing systems, but is now ramping up as a separate offering for third-party customers in their own, non-AM industrial systems. As part of this, several patents were granted, or applications filed.

Comparable to the importance of our AI work are our breakthroughs in material science, specifically relating to our INSU™ 200 dielectric material for AME, which was announced in the end of 2023 and a patent application has been filed in 2024. This material is critical for use to AME as it enables the printed PCB to go through critical processes that ultimately improve its thermo-mechanical properties. This, in effect, opens tremendous new business opportunities.

The Financial Engine Continues to Run

More than ever, we are shaping our decisions around the aforementioned bottom-line, but top-line is critical to enable success. Fortunately, Nano Dimension finished 2023 with another record year. This was on the back of a strong Q4/2023, and in fact, all quarters for the year have reached records within themselves compared to previous years. And not by small margins. As an example, Q4/2023’s $14.5 million in revenue was 19% higher than the same period in the year before. Importantly, this revenue growth is entirely organic. This is proof of our ability to acquire, integrate, and achieve synergies. The overly used yet highly indicative adage of “1 + 1 = 3”.

Stewards Responsible to Shareholders

2023 was a year in which we had constant engagement with shareholders, especially leading up to our Annual General Meeting which occurred on September 7th, 2023. Nano Dimension’s slate and existing stewards received the support needed from thousands of shareholders to continue to operate as directors for the Company.

Even with that continued mandate, we made proactive changes to our Board of Directors. Firstly, we separated the Chairman and CEO function with me stepping down as Chairman, while continuing to serve as a director. The Company and its shareholders should be enthralled to have Dr. Yoav Nissan-Cohen as Chairman. Dr. Nissan-Cohen brings many years of advanced technology innovation and corporate leadership, including as CEO of Tower Semiconductor for over ten years.

Secondly, we are honored to have a new voice on the board with 4-Star General Michael X. Garrett (Ret.), who was most recently the Commanding General of the United States Army Forces Command (“FORSCOM”). Two directors stepped down as part of this refresh.

The Capital is Yours

Since raising $1.5 billion in capital in 2021 we have consistently operated under the belief that this capital was given to us by our shareholders for a few years to create added substantial value. On this basis, we have constantly sought to allocate this capital in the best way to deliver a short-, medium- and long-term return on investment (“ROI”).

We have most often spoken about capital allocation through two channels. The first is organic investment, namely R&D and go-to-market. The second is inorganic, specifically mergers & acquisitions (“M&A”). But there is a third option: return capital to shareholders, while improving Nano’s enterprise value. We have done just that to a notable extent with a share buyback program, for approximately $96 million in 2023. Furthermore, we currently have another $200 million repurchase plan approved and underway.

Time for CONSOLIDATION

M&A has long been part of our strategy as evident by our seven acquisitions since April 2021. But more than being acquirors, we have been prudent buyers – unwilling to pay unreasonable valuations. Why? We believe you don’t make money when you sell, you make money when you buy. In other words, the acquisition price must be right.

In another deviation from the financial reports of all AM industry public companies – we do not see systemic reduced demands for our products. What we do identify are too many AM companies without the gross margins that fit the required R&D, machine building, and marketing budgets. The systemic lack of profitability is a result of overcrowded domain which was over-financed and over-valued by the 2021 SPAC-and-micro-cap-markets-and-small-AM-companies-MANIA. None of them are selling in a synergistic manner, none of them have focused on solving well defined and large yet coherent applications domains and vertical markets. The results are companies that sell, by a single corporation as an example, to the following markets: dental, defense, aerospace, medical body parts, medical instruments, consumer product and more. And those are pretty much all the companies that are large enough in AM and all burning cash annually while being left with ever shrinking reserves.

The solution for zero profits of the more than dozens of AM companies over the last few years is only one: consolidation. This general realignment will in turn increase our competitive advantage, increase gross margins, and focus on synergetic business lines rather than “We sell everything to everyone as long as it is 3D printing machine and/or material.”

The market is prime for consolidation, and we are positioned to be one of its main leaders.

It isn’t just about acquisitions because we have the capital, but also at compelling valuations that will drive an ROI for our shareholders, and proper merger and amalgamation of the management teams and rationalizing the product lines and go-to-market networks.

There are many great, albeit imperfect, companies in the AM industry. Great in that they have cutting edge technologies and meaningful customer relationships with our own customers and industry verticals. Imperfect in that for any number of reasons they have, poor business models that drive high costs, which have consumed the lion’s share of the capital that many of them raised. This is a unique and tremendous opportunity for Nano Dimension and its shareholders.

With close to $56.3 million of revenue, Nano Dimension is the fastest growing of the cohort of publicly traded AM / 3D printing companies (approximately 10-12). Contrary to reports by all other 3D printing public companies, and inconsistently with the reduction in the revenues of all during 2023, we do not feel “Industry headwinds”. This is not even one “industry”; medical equipment, defense, organic parts, prosthetics, 3D food printing, aerospace, aviation, energy, automotive, dental – are not “AM Industries” and do not necessarily see supposed headwinds together. Just as an example, the defense, aerospace and dental and electric/electronic transportation, as much as we know, did not have slowdowns in 2023.

Bottom line: Nano is the only company that grew, and substantially so; this year 29% organically vs. 2022 when we generated $43.7 million in revenue. And we are not shy to say that we were short from our original goal of $60 million. It is not because of headwinds; it is because we performed to an extend of 95% of our 2023 revenue goal.

We aim for go-to-market led consolidation AM/3D Printing and materials companies. This is the only way to accelerate toward profitability as fast as possible. If we can complete this M&A strategy as soon as we can at reasonable prices, we shall see a Nano Dimension that is well in the hundreds of millions of revenue and in a position to deliver to the bottom-line magnitudes more with greater scale and efficacy as practically the one of very few AM companies that is not only well managed and innovative, but also properly financed and positioned to deliver value to shareholders.

Thank you for your support.

Yoav Stern,
Chief Executive Officer and Member of the Board of Directors

EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as income before taxes, excluding depreciation and amortization expenses and interest income. We believe that EBITDA, as described above, should be considered in evaluating the Company’s operations. EBITDA facilitates the Company’s performance comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, and the age and depreciation charges and amortization of fixed and intangible assets, respectively (affecting relative depreciation and amortization expense, respectively), and EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it is widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to the items mentioned above.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as earnings before other financial income, income tax, depreciation and amortization, share-based payments and other extraordinary income, net, which consists of additional compensation for damaged inventory, less reorganization costs (see Notes 6 and 18(C) to our financial statements). Other financial expense (income), net includes exchange rate differences as well as finance income for revaluation of assets and liabilities. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, as described above, should also be considered in evaluating the company’s operations. Like EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting other financial expenses (income), net), and the age and depreciation charges and amortization of fixed and intangible assets, respectively (affecting relative depreciation and amortization expense, respectively), as well as from share-based payment expenses, and Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it is widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to non-cash items, such as expenses related to share-based payments.

Adjusted gross profit, excluding depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation expenses, is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as gross profit excluding amortization expenses. We believe that adjusted gross profit, as described above, should also be considered in evaluating the Company’s operations. Adjusted gross profit facilitates gross profit and gross margin comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in amortization of inventory and intangible assets. Adjusted gross profit is useful to an investor in evaluating our performance because it enables investors, securities analysts and other interested parties to measure a company’s performance without regard to non-cash items, such as amortization expenses. Adjusted gross margin is calculated by dividing the adjusted gross profit by the revenues.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted gross profit do not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) as indicators of our operating performance or as measures of our liquidity. These measures should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) as presented in our consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Other companies may calculate these measures differently than we do.
