We are also maintaining our Adjusted EBIT guidance of 11,000 kEUR to 14,000 kEUR for fiscal year 2024.”
Non-IFRS Measures
Materialise uses EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial measures of its financial performance. EBIT is calculated as net profit plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income) and shares of profit or loss in a joint venture. EBITDA is calculated as net profit plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income), shares of profit or loss in a joint venture and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA are determined by adding share-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related expenses of business combinations, impairments and revaluation of fair value due to business combinations to EBIT and EBITDA, respectively. Management believes these non-IFRS measures to be important measures as they exclude the effects of items which primarily reflect the impact of financing decisions and, in the case of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, long term investment, rather than the performance of the company’s day-to-day operations. The company also uses segment Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the performance of its three business segments. As compared to net profit, these measures are limited in that they do not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on the company’s indebtedness and, in the case of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, these measures are further limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the company’s business, or the changes associated with impairments. Management evaluates such items through other financial measures such as financial expenses, capital expenditures and cash flow provided by operating activities. The company believes that these measurements are useful to measure a company’s ability to grow or as a valuation measurement. The company’s calculation of EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net profit or any other performance measure derived in accordance with IFRS. The company’s presentation of EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

2024 Guidance
For fiscal 2024, we will be providing guidance for both our consolidated revenue as well our consolidated Adjusted EBIT, and will no longer be providing guidance for our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. We believe our consolidated Adjusted EBIT will be a more useful guidance measure for investors and analysts going forward as Adjusted EBIT includes the periodic cost of capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenue in our business and, as such, will allow for a better assessment of our expected performance. However, we will continue to report the segment Adjusted EBITDA of our three business segments.
Mrs. de Vet-Veithen concluded, “Whereas our guidance reflects the uncertain macro-economic and geo-political environment, we believe Materialise is ideally positioned, thanks to our strong product portfolio, continued investments in innovations and strong financial foundation. We expect sales in all three of our segments to increase. The growth of our Materialise Software revenue will be further temporarily impacted by the transition towards a cloud-based subscription business model that we are continuing to implement. Based on current market conditions, we expect our full year consolidated revenues to grow to a range of 265,000 to 275,000 kEUR in 2024. The revenue growth will result in an Adjusted EBIT which we currently anticipate to total between 11,000 and 14,000 kEUR. We expect our three segments to contribute to our Adjusted EBIT in line with their contributions to our revenue growth.”
Non-IFRS Measures
Materialise uses EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial measures of its financial performance. EBIT is calculated as net profit plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income) and shares of profit or loss in a joint venture. EBITDA is calculated as net profit plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income), shares of profit or loss in a joint venture and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA are determined by adding share-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related expenses of business combinations, impairments and revaluation of fair value due to business combinations to EBIT and EBITDA, respectively. Management believes these non-IFRS measures to be important measures as they exclude the effects of items which primarily reflect the impact of financing decisions and, in the case of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, long term investment, rather than the performance of the company’s day-to-day operations. The company also uses segment Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the performance of its three business segments. As compared to net profit, these measures are limited in that they do not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on the company’s indebtedness and, in the case of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, these measures are further limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the company’s business, or the changes associated with impairments. Management evaluates such items through other financial measures such as financial expenses, capital expenditures and cash flow provided by operating activities. The company believes that these measurements are useful to measure a company’s ability to grow or as a valuation measurement. The company’s calculation of EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net profit or any other performance measure derived in accordance with IFRS. The company’s presentation of EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Executive Chairman Peter Leys commented, “Once again, demand for our products and solutions remained solid throughout the third quarter of this year. While uncertain global macro-economic conditions primarily impacted our Materialise Manufacturing segment, Materialise’s consolidated revenue continued to grow, by 3% compared to the same period last year. This strong performance was mainly driven by the continued double-digit revenue increase of our Materialise Medical segment. At the same time, we grew our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA by 55% to 7,857 kEUR through our focus on leveraging scaling effects and cost control, and without compromising on our continued investments in our growth businesses.”

At the same time, we are maintaining our Adjusted EBITDA guidance of between 28,000 kEUR and 33,000 kEUR for fiscal year 2023.”
Non-IFRS Measures
Materialise uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial measures of its financial performance. EBITDA is calculated as net profit plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income), shares of profit or loss in a joint venture and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by adding share-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related expenses of business combinations, impairments and revaluation of fair value due to business combinations to EBITDA. Management believes these non-IFRS measures to be important measures as they exclude the effects of items which primarily reflect the impact of long-term investment and financing decisions, rather than the performance of the company’s day-to-day operations. As compared to net profit, these measures are limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the company’s business, or the charges associated with impairments. Management evaluates such items through other financial measures such as capital expenditures and cash flow provided by operating activities. The company believes that these measurements are useful to measure a company’s ability to grow or as a valuation measurement. The company’s calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net profit or any other performance measure derived in accordance with IFRS. The company’s presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Based on the company’s strong Q1 performance, but also bearing in mind the uncertain global macro-economic environment, we now believe that our 2023 revenue will come closer to the high end of the initially guided range, and expect that our 2023 Adjusted EBITDA could be up to 10% higher than the top of the range communicated earlier.”
Non-IFRS Measures
Materialise uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial measures of its financial performance. EBITDA is calculated as net profit plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income), shares of profit or loss in a joint venture and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by adding share-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related expenses of business combinations, impairments and revaluation of fair value due to business combinations to EBITDA. Management believes these non-IFRS measures to be important measures as they exclude the effects of items which primarily reflect the impact of long-term investment and financing decisions, rather than the performance of the company’s day-to-day operations. As compared to net profit, these measures are limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the company’s business, or the charges associated with impairments. Management evaluates such items through other financial measures such as capital expenditures and cash flow provided by operating activities. The company believes that these measurements are useful to measure a company’s ability to grow or as a valuation measurement. The company’s calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net profit or any other performance measure derived in accordance with IFRS. The company’s presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Materialise Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results
6:30 am ET February 14, 2023 (BusinessWire) Print
Materialise NV (NASDAQ:MTLS), a leading provider of additive manufacturing and medical software solutions and of sophisticated 3D printing services, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022.
Highlights - Fourth Quarter 2022
Total revenue increased 10% to 62,703 kEUR for the fourth quarter of 2022 from 56,989 kEUR for the 2021 period. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to 4,258 kEUR for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 10,490 kEUR for the 2021 period. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2022 was (4,588) kEUR, or (0.08) EUR per diluted share, compared to a profit of 4,762 kEUR, or 0.08 EUR per diluted share, for the 2021 period.
Highlights - Full Year 2022
Total revenue increased 13% to 232,023 kEUR for 2022 from 205,450 kEUR for 2021. Total deferred revenues from annual software sales and maintenance fees increased 7,635 kEUR to 42,780 kEUR compared to December 31, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA was 19,014 kEUR for 2022 compared to 32,490 kEUR for 2021. Net loss for 2022 was (2,153) kEUR, or (0.04) EUR per diluted share, compared to a profit of 13,145 kEUR, or 0.23 EUR per diluted share, for 2021. Total cash was 140,867 kEUR at the end of 2022.
Executive Chairman Peter Leys commented, "Amidst the macro-economic and geo-political turbulence of 2022, Materialise prioritized the sustainability of our top-line growth over the maximization of short term profits. In 2022, we increased our revenues by 13% and grew our deferred revenues by more than 20%. In addition, we continued to strategically invest in our growth businesses despite significant inflationary pressures on labor, energy and materials costs and accelerated the consolidation with both Link3D and Identify3D, as a basis for our future cloud-based recurring income. These added costs in addition to certain one-time items weighed on our overall profitability for the year, with Adjusted EBITDA decreasing to 19,014 kEUR. However, with positive cash flow from operating activities of almost 25,000 kEUR in 2022 and cash and cash equivalents in excess of 140,000 kEUR at year end, we have the liquidity to support these investments and believe this was the right choice for Materialise, positioning us well for more profitable growth in the coming years."

2023 Guidance
Mr. Leys concluded, "We currently expect Materialise to post another year of double-digit revenue growth, with revenues totaling between 255,000 and 260,000 kEUR in 2023. As in 2022, we expect our Materialise Medical segment and our Materialise Manufacturing segment will be the main drivers of that growth. While we expect sales of our Materialise Software segment will also grow, this growth may not be fully reflected in the segment's revenues due to the changing cloud-based subscription business model we are introducing there.
"Assuming that inflation stabilizes in 2023, we expect our continued revenue growth to gradually result in a stronger Adjusted EBITDA, which we currently anticipate to total between 25,000 and 30,000 kEUR for 2023. We expect our three segments to contribute to our Adjusted EBITDA in line with their contributions to our revenue growth.
"At the same time, we want to note that the developments in Ukraine will likely have an important impact on the European and global economy as well as on the continuity of the important services we source from our brave workforce in Kyiv and could, therefore, also have a significant effect on our results for 2023. We will continue to monitor these developments, which remain unpredictable."
Non-IFRS Measures
Materialise uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial measures of its financial performance. EBITDA is calculated as net profit(loss) plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income), shares of profit or loss in a joint venture and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by adding share-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related expenses of business combinations, impairments and revaluation of fair value due to business combinations to EBITDA. Management believes these non-IFRS measures to be important measures as they exclude the effects of items which primarily reflect the impact of long-term investment and financing decisions, rather than the performance of the company's day-to-day operations. As compared to net profit(loss), these measures are limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the company's business, or the charges associated with impairments. Management evaluates such items through other financial measures such as capital expenditures and cash flow provided by operating activities. The company believes that these measurements are useful to measure a company's ability to grow or as a valuation measurement. The company's calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net profit(loss) or any other performance measure derived in accordance with IFRS. The company's presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Materialise Reports Third Quarter 2022 Results
Source: Business Wire
Materialise NV (NASDAQ:MTLS), a leading provider of additive manufacturing and medical software and of sophisticated 3D printing services, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Highlights – Third Quarter 2022
Total revenue increased 11.7% to 58,288 kEUR compared to 52,195 kEUR for the third quarter of 2021.
Total deferred revenue from annual software sales and maintenance fees increased by 3,214 kEUR to 38,359 kEUR compared to December 31, 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA was 5,072 kEUR, compared to 9,739 kEUR for the 2021 period.
Net profit for the third quarter of 2022 was 1,413 kEUR, or 0.02 EUR per diluted share, compared to 8,657 kEUR, or 0.15 EUR per diluted share, for the 2021 period.
Executive Chairman Peter Leys commented, “Demand for the products and solutions of each of our three segments remained solid even in these uncertain macro-economic times. Materialise’s revenue increased by almost 12% compared to the same period last year and our deferred revenue from annual software sales and maintenance fees increased by almost 10% compared to December 31, 2021. As a result of our continued investment in our growth businesses, but also because of inflation and, in particular our increased labor costs, our Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was 5,072 kEUR compared to 9,739 kEUR for the third quarter of 2021. Our results included operational investments in Identify3D, a developer of AM cloud security systems that we acquired on September 1, 2022.”
Third Quarter 2022 Results
Total revenue for the third quarter of 2022 increased 11.7% to 58,288 kEUR from 52,195 kEUR for the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to 5,072 kEUR for the third quarter of 2022 compared to 9,739 kEUR for the 2021 period.

The third quarter of 2022 contained income tax expenses of (478) kEUR, compared to (75) kEUR in the third quarter of 2021.
As a result of the above, net profit for the third quarter of 2022 was 1,413 kEUR, compared to 8,657 kEUR for the same period in 2021. Total comprehensive income for the third quarter of 2022, which includes exchange differences on translation of foreign operations, was 1,638 kEUR compared to 8,272 kEUR for the 2021 period.
At September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of 150,621 kEUR compared to 196,028 kEUR at December 31, 2021. Gross debt amounted to 83,925 kEUR, compared to 99,107 kEUR at December 31, 2021. As a result, our net cash position (cash and cash equivalents less gross debt) was 66,696 kEUR, a decrease of 30,225 kEUR, and included the effect of our call option exercise to acquire 100% of the shares of Link3D, and of our acquisition of Identify3D.
Cash flow from operating activities for the third quarter of the year 2022 was 3,840 kEUR compared to 4,388 kEUR for the same period in 2021. Total capital expenditures for the third quarter of 2022 amounted to 9,441 kEUR.
Net shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2022 was 236,559 kEUR compared to 232,577 kEUR at December 31, 2021.
2022 Guidance
Mr. Leys concluded, “The revenue growth posted by each of our segments during the first nine months of this year strengthens our confidence that our full year 2022 revenues will be at least 10% higher than in 2021. While inflation and pressure on the labor market, which are higher and more persistent than we expected at the beginning of 2022, weigh on our results, we continue to make prudent investments in select growth businesses. As a result, we continue to expect that our consolidated EBITDA for the full year 2022 will be in the range of 20 mEUR to 25 mEUR.”
Non-IFRS Measures
Materialise uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial measures of its financial performance. EBITDA is calculated as net profit plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income), shares of profit or loss in a joint venture and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by adding share-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related expenses of business combinations, impairments and revaluation of fair value due to business combinations to EBITDA. Management believes these non-IFRS measures to be important measures as they exclude the effects of items which primarily reflect the impact of long-term investment and financing decisions, rather than the performance of the company’s day-to-day operations. As compared to net profit, these measures are limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the company’s business, or the charges associated with impairments. Management evaluates such items through other financial measures such as capital expenditures and cash flow provided by operating activities. The company believes that these measurements are useful to measure a company’s ability to grow or as a valuation measurement. The company’s calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net profit or any other performance measure derived in accordance with IFRS. The company’s presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
