Third Quarter 2017 Financial Results

  • Total revenues for the third quarter of 2017 were $143,000 (NIS 506,000), compared to $150,000 (NIS 523,000) in the second quarter of 2017 and zero in the third quarter of 2016.

  • Research and development (R & amp;D) expenses for the third quarter of 2017 were $3,000,000 (NIS 10,588,000), compared to $3,212,000 (NIS 11,230,000) in the second quarter of 2017 and $674,000 (NIS 2,533,000) in the third quarter of 2016. The decrease compared to the second quarter of 2017 resulted primarily from a decrease in options expenses. The increase compared to the third quarter of 2016 is mainly a result of the cessation of the capitalization of development cost in the fourth quarter of 2016.

    The R & amp;D expenses for the third quarter of 2017 are presented net of government grants in the amount of $24,000 (NIS 83,000).

  • Sales, marketing and general and administrative (G & amp;A) expenses for the third quarter of 2017 were $1,077,000 (NIS 3,800,000), compared to $1,490,000 (NIS 5,209,000) in the second quarter of 2017 and $1,049,000 (NIS 3,941,000) in the third quarter of 2016. The decrease compared to the second quarter of 2017 resulted primarily from a decrease in professional services expenses. The decrease in NIS compared to the third quarter of 2016 resulted primarily from a decrease in directors fees and other general and administrative expenses. The expenses in the third quarter of 2017 in USD increased compared to the expenses in the third quarter of 2016 in USD due to changes in the exchange rate of the dollar compared to the NIS.

  • Net loss for the third quarter of 2017 was $4,152,000 (NIS 14,650,000), or $0.06 (NIS 0.22) per ordinary share, compared to $5,000,000 (NIS 17,481,000), or $0.1 (NIS 0.33) per ordinary share, in the second quarter of 2017 and $1,727,000 (NIS 6,491,000), or $0.05 (NIS 0.17) per ordinary share, in the third quarter of 2016. The decrease compared to the second quarter of 2017 resulted primarily from a decrease in sales, marketing and general and administrative expenses as described above. The increase compared to the third quarter of 2016 is mainly attributed to the increase in R & amp;D expenses as described above.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Financial Results

  • Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $414,000 (NIS 1,459,000), compared to zero in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The fourth quarter of 2016 was the first quarter in which Nano Dimension generated revenues.

  • Sales, marketing and general and administrative (G & amp;A) expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $3,860,000 (NIS 13,621,000), compared to $3,453,000 (NIS 12,975,000) in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in payroll and related expenses.

  • Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $13,726,000 (NIS 48,437,000), or $0.25 (NIS 0.88) per ordinary share, compared to $5,224,000 (NIS 19,633,000), or $0.14 (NIS 0.52) per ordinary share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is mainly attributed to the increase in R & amp;D expenses as described above.

The decrease compared to December 31, 2016 mainly reflects the cash used during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, less the proceeds received from the private placements that occurred in the second quarter of 2017.

  • Shareholders' equity totaled $21,677,000 (NIS 76,501,000) as of September 30, 2017, compared to $19,302,000 (NIS 74,218,000) as of December 31, 2016.
