What's Behind ExOne Co. and United Technologies Corporation's 3D Printing Partnership?
By Steve Heller | More Articles
May 20, 2015 | Comments (1)
Several years ago, before ExOne (NASDAQ: XONE ) was a publicly traded company, it was awarded a contract to develop a system around complex 3D-printed molds and metal castings for aviation applications on behalf of Sikorsky, a United Technologies (NYSE: UTX ) company that primarily produces helicopters for militaries around the world.
Specifically, the project was related to Sikorsky's still in development S-97 Raider helicopter, and thus far, ExOne has spent approximately $1 million in getting its processes and systems in place to handle the scope of the project. Although the inaugural project officially concluded in the fourth quarter and only generated a nominal amount of revenue for ExOne over its lifetime, Sikorsky was pleased with the results and has awarded ExOne with an additional project that this time involves the U.S. Army.
In the following video, 3D printing specialist Steve Heller interviews David Burns, ExOne's global head of sales about the nature of the initial project with Sikorsky, if the $1 million it invested was well spent, and whether it can pave the way for future business opportunities.
A full transcript follows the video.
Steve Heller: In terms of specifics here with ExCast and its projects, I know you guys have worked with Sikorsky, which is a United Technologies company. They make helicopters for the military.
What was the nature of this project? What was the problem that Sikorsky came to you with and what were you guys trying to solve?
David Burns: Sikorsky came to us specifically because they had a casting grouping for a new flight application they were looking at, and the characteristics they wanted in those castings weren't clearly going to be available without 3D printing as an element of the process.
When we began to collaborate, we realized we were working really hard on the front end, on design with them, to be sure that the design itself was going to be printable. Then of course we needed to heavily interface with the foundry to be sure that they could pour the design we created. Suddenly, there was a process chain that was beginning to form up around the entire casting itself.
At some point Sikorsky said, "It would be really helpful -- since you're already at the design phase, the 3D printing phase, and the casting phase, why don't you just take responsibility to then get it machined, x-rayed, and certified, and deliver that to us because we as Sikorsky don't necessarily want to manage that process."
I would say it was evolutionary, and of course as we reported often on our earnings calls, the process was bumpy and hard, and there was a lot of learning to be had. But I think most hard things are like that, and we do feel as if we learned an extraordinary amount.
We are well honed now. We are staffed well and organized well to execute full casting projects, and we're pleased with the progress we've made. While it may have been expensive and it may not, from a timing perspective, have been exactly what we initially hoped for, I think both sides are really pleased and we continue to do a lot of work with Sikorsky and other DOD [Department of Defense] projects.
Heller: From what I've gathered, it cost about $1 million, what came out in the last conference call, so far for Sikorsky and getting ExCast up to speed. I'm not really sure of the revenue figures, but I believe it's probably a nominal amount at this point. I think there were a lot of up-front costs for you guys.
Do you look at that as money well spent at this point, or do you think there's more money to be spent? The return on investment, do you think it's really going to pay off?
Burns: I do, Steve. Of course that's a hard question to answer. The initial project we did with Sikorsky is concluded, for all intents and purposes.
We have launched a secondary project with them which actually, from a revenue perspective, is going to have more revenue in it than the first project did. Our expected cost pattern against that [second project] will be far lower; we know that.
We have an excellent team in place now to do exactly what we're trying to do. I suppose you can look back retrospectively and say, "We wish we'd known before," but we didn't -- but we do now.
We're very encouraged by what we think is going to happen with Sikorsky next, and beyond that there's a myriad of other opportunities laying out there that, if we choose to execute them, we think are going to be really good for ExOne, and good for our customers.
Heller: It lays the foundation for opening up ExOne into more defense-related contracts, is what I'm gathering.
Burns: I think that's a fair statement, yes.

ExOne Earnings Preview: 3 Areas to Watch
By Steve Heller | More Articles
March 13, 2015 | Comments (0)
From http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2015/03/13/exone-earnings-preview-3-areas-to-watch.aspx

Industrial 3D printing specialist ExOne (NASDAQ: XONE ) is set to release its fourth-quarter and 2014 full-year earnings on Monday after the market closes, and will hold a conference call to discuss the results on Tuesday before the market opens.
Going into the report, Wall Street anticipates that ExOne's fourth quarter generated $18.5 million in revenue and an earnings loss of $0.05 per share. For the full year, the consensus estimate expects ExOne will have generated $46.8 million in revenue and an earnings loss of $1.07 per share.
Looking beyond the headline figures, investors should also home in on how ExOne's underlying business is performing to determine if the long-term investment thesis remains intact. The following areas will allow investors to assess how business fared at ExOne during the fourth quarter.
1. Machine revenue
In the third quarter, ExOne's machine revenue, or 3D printer sales, plunged by 46% year over year, due to multiple order shipment delays, which forced the company to miss out on realizing $4 million to $5 million in additional revenue.
Fortunately, CEO Kent Rockwell highlighted during ExOne's third-quarter conference call that the company hasn't lost any customers from these delays, and expects the held-up orders will be shipped in the fourth quarter. If all goes according to plan, and ExOne ships these held-up orders, management also expects that the fourth-quarter machine revenues will break company records.

2. Non-machine revenue
In recent years, ExOne has started placing a greater emphasis on growing its non-machine revenue, or the sales it generates from being hired by customers for 3D-printing parts through its expanding worldwide presence of 3D printing service centers, of which there are currently eight. From a business perspective, offering 3D printing services to customers gives ExOne an opportunity to showcase the capabilities of its binder jetting technology, and could also lead to future sales of its 3D printers.
The service center strategy appears to be paying off, with non-machine revenues increasing by 42% year over year in the third quarter, accounting for the majority of the company's total revenue during the period. As far as investors are concerned, a slowdown in service center activity could indicate that acceptance of ExOne's binder jetting technology is waning, which could be material to the long-term investing thesis.
3. Gross profit margin
During the third quarter, ExOne's gross margin collapsed by 19.4 percentage points year over year to 25.8%, thanks largely to those product shipment delays, which contributed to an unfavorable margin mix between machine and non-machine revenue, and also the reality that the company operates more 3D printing service centers worldwide than it did a year ago.

Because management expects those delayed shipments will ship in the fourth quarter, investors should look for an improvement in gross margin on a sequential basis, which would help alleviate concerns about other underlying issues related to ExOne's profitability prospects.
All eyes on Monday
Come Monday, investors will have another opportunity to see how ExOne's underlying business is performing to determine whether the long-term investment thesis remains on track. Monitoring ExOne's machine and non-machine revenue, as well as its gross profit margin, are great ways to start the process.

ExOne's Product Development And Pricing Strategies Are Catalysts
From http://www.gurufocus.com/news/307682/exones-product-development-and-pricing-strategies-are-catalysts
ExOne (XONE) has implemented some key pricing strategies to expand large volume orders in its PSCs. These innovative large-frame orders are believed to enhance both the company’s margins and revenue, going forward.
Promising end markets
The Asian markets looks promising particularly the Chinese market where there are significant pending orders and ExOne has shipped few into China last quarter. However, Japan illustrated poor performance and sold nothing in three quarters due to the fact that the Japanese government financed a program to contend with the X1 machining process and to successfully defend the company’s process.
There’s a declining rate of machine orders for this year, owing to the fact that ExOne is currently shifting these machines into silicate and Phenolic materials instead of just remaining sand and allowing printing for providing several innovative applications for these machines.
ExOne continues to build on its people capacity and has added nearly 100 people since the launch of IPO and year to date. It is also focusing keenly on its R&D activities, on marketing and sales, and on building capacity for enhancing the revenue base.
ExOne is investing significantly to develop into a leading company in all aspects. It aims to achieve ISO certifications, turning it into a quality behemoth. In the quarter itself other two of its US facilities gained ISO certification. By this year end, ExOne expects all five of its U.S. facilities to get certified.
These investments illustrate the robustness of the company’s balance sheet and outline its significant cash flows.
Innovative systems will be catalysts
ExOne plans to release an innovative ERP system in several phases with its initial phase of ERP rollout expected by January 1. The complete rollout is estimated to continue positively through 2015 and perhaps into 2016 for all the modules to get successfully integrated and implemented.
Hence, ExOne is adding considerable needed capacity in Europe. Apart from just adding capacity, ExOne is uniting five single locations into one and thus enhancing the affectivity and efficiency, going forward into 2015.
ExOne has also opened an Italian production sales center and service center. It is currently installing new machines at the facility and has just started to print customer parts. The expansion plans of ExOne in North Huntington are well in progress, and the facility is forecast to become operational prior to the end of the year.
ExOne is primarily centered on investing significantly into both machine technology and materials development.
Considering materials development, ExOne is recently focused on the type of materials that have either extremely poor thermal conductivity or are highly thermally conductive such as ceramics, graphite and carbon.
These materials are believed to be highly suited for the aerospace industry as well as the oil and gas industry, and ExOne is making significant progress in both these industry verticals, going forward.
ExOne has lately developed 3D printed metal holography which leverages a SPL file of the digital picture which can be printed on both sides. This is believed to become a significant business opportunity for ExOne, moving ahead.
These unique and innovative developments put ExOne way ahead of its rapidly growing competition and defines a new path for improved revenue growth and enhanced profitability.
ExOne is focused on machine development as well. It has built a new lab machine in North Huntington which is estimated to start shipping in 2015.
The 3D printing major plans to convert its print platform to allow direct printing of metals and expects to ship its first M Print during the first quarter. Going forward, ExOne targets on shipping the S-Max Plus machine and three other machines during the fourth quarter.
ExOne plans to introduce its series production machine at the GEFA Show in Dusseldorf in June of 2015. This machine is believed to be leveraged for mid-volume production only.
Conclusion
ExOne is strategically employing its capital for developing its infrastructure and facilities. By September end, it has about $45 million cash and almost no debt. These significant investments into its facilities are estimated to get completed by the year end.
Moving ahead into 2015 and beyond, ExOne expects to have free cash in $36 million to $40 million range by the end of 2014, which will give it enough resources to pursue growth.

3D Printing Stocks: How ExOne Co.'s Strategy Differs From the Competition
By Steve Heller and Blake Bos | More Articles
October 28, 2014 | Comments (0)
In the following video, 3D printing specialist Steve Heller and Motley Fool industrials analyst Blake Bos discuss ExOne's (NASDAQ: XONE ) recent strategy shift from focusing on selling its industrial 3D printers to foundries to selling them direct to customer.
Earlier this year, ExOne highlighted that metal foundries are proving to be reluctant to purchase its large-format sand-based 3D printers that print sand molds for industrial metal castings. It's possible the metal foundry industry is afraid that ExOne's 3D printers, which require zero tooling, would devalue the industry's trade secrets around mold making and tooling. Consequently, ExOne has shifted its growth strategy to now focus on going after the metal foundry industry's customers.
While this transition has hurt ExOne's operating performance in the short term, it could potentially result in a bigger market opportunity for the industrial-focused 3D printer company, because in aggregate, there are more foundry customers than there are foundries, meaning ExOne's opportunity to sell its sand-based 3D printers could be greater than if the company remained solely focused on serving the metal foundry industry.
To help aid in the transition, ExOne's eight existing service centers across North America, Europe, and Japan should help prospective customers get acquainted with ExOne's technology and machines before they make a purchase. By the end of 2015, ExOne intends to have 15 service centers in operation worldwide, which should help expand the presence of its brand and potential customer base.
Ultimately, ExOne is a niche-focused 3D printing company with only one direct competitor in the sand mold space: Germany-based voxeljet. Being a niche player could give ExOne an opportunity to establish itself as a leading company in the 3D-printed sand castings space, which could make it difficult for new competitors to penetrate the market. The 3D printing "majors" such as Stratasys and 3D Systems don't currently offer 3D-printed sand molds and are more focused on capitalizing on the general rise of 3D printing, whereas ExOne is focused on a specific segment in the market that it believes is underserved. This more focused strategy could help ExOne drive strong earnings results longer term, without the added pressure of increased competition.
Going forward, ExOne investors should acknowledge that as exciting as it is that the company is a niche-focused 3D printing company, it is not an investment free from risks. Year to date, shares have sold off around 65%, and the company has to prove that its strategy to focus directly on foundry customers will bear fruit, which may take years.

The little company powering Apple's biggest hits
If you follow the headlines, you already know about the new iPhone, iPad, and soon-to-be-released Apple Watch. But the bigger (and overlooked) story is about the small-cap company powering a major component of Apple's new lineup. The company is poised to deliver potentially huge gains for early shareholders. To be one of them, just click here!
Blake Bos: Let's run through a few of the companies. We talked to ExOne. They do metals. It sounds like they have an interesting strategy. They're going after a niche market in foundries. They probably can't compete with the SLS [selective laser sintering] machines for aerospace. Do you like their strategy? Is it something that gets you excited?
Steve Heller: I do. It seems more disruptive to the existing way of business. Metal foundries, where people get investment castings made, have a lot of black-box secrets. ExOne takes away that mystery.
They print molds, so they have direct tooling -- no tooling required. Instead of using tooling, they just print the mold, and then they have the casting. That's pretty disruptive.
Bos: And the OEM owns the design.
Heller: Exactly, so instead of an OEM [original equipment manufacturer] -- let's say you're a company like Ford -- instead of going to a foundry that has all these trade secrets and charges you for those trade secrets, they go to ExOne and say, "Hey, we want to print a new engine block, a functioning engine block for an upcoming prototype engine for our new C-Max."
Bos: Out pops a big sand brick, boom. Engine.
Heller: Exactly. It's actually a bigger market when you think about it from an OEM perspective than a foundry perspective.
They recently shifted strategies a little bit, focusing on foundry. They found foundries weren't very receptive to their business. Now they're going direct to customers, and that's actually a bigger opportunity, long term.
Bos: Yes. I think it's a good opportunity for investors, but it is higher risk. We talked to them. It's going to take some time for that to play out.
Heller: I would say it's at least a five-year plan. I spoke to management. Their growth strategy is a three- to five-year plan right now. They're not even focused on the day-to-day. They're focusing on that long term, big picture.
Bos: As a Foolish investor...
Heller: Yes. Dollar-cost averaging, if you're interested in the stock.
Bos: Yes, but don't expect results overnight in ExOne.
Heller: Absolutely not. Especially given the recent underperformance, I think it's going to take time for the market to come around again in terms of sentiment improvements.
