3D Systems (DDD) posted a mixed Q4 earnings report on Monday — the kind that gives bulls and bears something to argue about over lunch.

Revenue came in at $106.3 million, comfortably ahead of the $97.99 million analysts had penciled in. That’s a 16% sequential jump, and it wasn’t smoke and mirrors. The growth was driven by real demand: strong printer and materials sales, along with double-digit year-over-year gains in personalized health services, partly fueled by the company’s expansion into the trauma market.

On the bottom line, though, DDD fell short. The company reported an EPS loss of ($0.13), missing the consensus estimate of ($0.10) by $0.03. Adjusted EBITDA came in at a loss of $5.3 million, which actually beat the expected loss of $7.58 million.

The company’s net margin sits at 4.01%, while return on equity is a negative 38.72% — a figure that continues to weigh on investor sentiment.

Cost Cuts Providing Some Cushion

One area where management has made measurable progress is costs. 3D Systems says it has achieved $55 million in annualized cost savings through its ongoing reduction and efficiency programs. That’s not nothing for a company with a market cap just under $255 million.

The 50-day moving average sits at $2.21, and the 200-day at $2.35 — both above the current trading price of $1.98, which opened Monday’s session near the lower end of its 52-week range of $1.32 to $3.80.

The stock carries a beta of 2.39, meaning it moves sharply relative to the broader market. The debt-to-equity ratio is 0.55, with a current ratio of 2.73.

Institutional investors own about 64.5% of the stock. Deutsche Bank raised its stake by 5.4% in Q4, while Tudor Investment Corp increased its holding by 1.1%. Intech Investment Management added 15.9% to its position.

What’s Ahead for Q1 2026

Management also said it is on track for 20% annual revenue growth in its aerospace and defense segment for 2026.
