Q1 revenue increased 16% year-over-year to $123 million driven by marketplace growth of 24% year-over-year. Q1 gross profit increased 22% year-over-year driven by 37% growth in marketplace gross profit. Q1 marketplace gross margin increased 320 basis points year-over-year to a record 32.0%. Q1 Adjusted EBITDA loss of $7.5 million, a 37% improvement year-over-year driven by higher revenue, gross profit, and operating efficiencies. 2024 growth initiatives include: expanding buyer and supplier networks; driving deeper enterprise engagement; expanding the marketplace menu; growing internationally and enhancing supplier services. NORTH BETHESDA, Md., May 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xometry, Inc. (NASDAQ:XMTR), the global AI-powered marketplace connecting enterprise buyers with suppliers of manufacturing services, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024. "Powered by AI, our marketplace continues to gain significant market share as buyers and suppliers realize the value, convenience and resiliency of our platform," said Randy Altschuler, Xometry's CEO. "In Q1 2024, we delivered better than expected revenue driven by strong 24% marketplace revenue growth. Marketplace growth was driven by robust 32% growth in Active Buyers. We expect our current initiatives to continue to drive long-term growth." "We delivered strong marketplace gross margin expansion to a record 32% and improved our Q1 Adjusted EBITDA loss by 37% year-over-year," said James Miln, Xometry's CFO. "We expect to continue to improve our year-over-year progress towards profitability in 2024 through operating leverage, partly offset by international and enterprise growth investments." First Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights Total revenue for the first quarter 2024 was $123 million, an increase of 16% year-over-year. Marketplace revenue for the first quarter of 2024 was $107 million, an increase of 24% year-over-year. Supplier services revenue for the first quarter of 2024 was $15.5 million, a decrease of 17% year-over-year driven primarily by the exit of the lower-margin tools and materials business, which reduced revenue by approximately $2 million year-over-year. Total gross profit for the first quarter 2024 was $47.9 million, an increase of 22% year-over-year. Marketplace Active Buyers increased 32% from 44,451 as of March 31, 2023 to 58,504 as of March 31, 2024. Marketplace Accounts with Last Twelve-Months Spend of at least $50,000 increased 25% from 1,109 as of March 31, 2023 to 1,381 as of March 31, 2024. Active Paying Suppliers decreased 6% from 7,621 as of March 31, 2023 to 7,159 as of March 31, 2024. Excluding the exited tools and materials business, Active Paying Suppliers decreased 2% year-over-year. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $16.6 million for the quarter, a decrease of $1.7 million year-over-year. Net loss for Q1 2024 included $6.0 million of stock-based compensation and $3.2 million of depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $7.5 million for the quarter, reflecting an improvement of $4.3 million year-over-year. First Quarter 2024 Business Highlights Introduced enhanced features for our Teamspace enterprise collaboration software. Teamspace moves the Xometry marketplace from a focus on individual buyers and parts to procurement teams managing essential programs. New features include enhanced collaboration, order management tools and comprehensive quote histories. Since the launch of Teamspace, over 2,300 teams have been created.   Launched a marketplace buyer dashboard for tooling processes, including injection molding. New dashboard provides engineers and procurement professionals details about their various tools, as well as a view of their tool production workflow (tracking everything from quoting, design-for-manufacturability and tool production and part production).  Expanded the xometry.eu marketplace menu, including adding Vacuum Casting to the Instant Quoting engine allowing customers to take advantage of low-cost, high-quality plastic production.  Added 200 classic RAL colors to our finishing options and launched Czech language on the site, xometry.eu/cs, marking Xometry's 15th local-language.  Started beta testing a number of new features for Thomas, including new self-serve tools for suppliers to create custom advertising campaigns on Thomasnet. The new tools let suppliers select from among 78,000 categories and keywords that best reflect their products and services and present a range of suggested budgets tailored to their marketing spend.

Expect Q2 2024 Adjusted EBITDA loss of $6.0-$8.0 million. Expect fiscal 2024 marketplace revenue growth of at least 20% year-over-year and expect supplier services revenue to be down approximately 10% year-over-year. For fiscal 2024, we expect improved operating leverage as compared to fiscal 2023, partly offset by international and enterprise growth investments. Xometry's second quarter 2024 and full year 2024 financial outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside of its control. If actual results vary from these assumptions, Xometry's expectations may change. There can be no assurance that Xometry will achieve these results. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA on a forward-looking basis to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and complexity and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from this non-GAAP measure; in particular, the effects of stock-based compensation expense specific to equity compensation awards that are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in Xometry's stock price. Xometry expects the variability of the above charges to have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on its future GAAP financial results. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), Xometry, Inc. ("Xometry", the "Company", "we" or "our") uses Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP Earnings Per Share basic and diluted, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures, as described below. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented to enhance the user's overall understanding of Xometry's financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, nor superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release, together with the GAAP financial results, are the primary measures used by the Company's management and board of directors to understand and evaluate the Company's financial performance and operating trends, including period-to-period comparisons, because they exclude certain expenses and gains that management believes are not indicative of the Company's core operating results. Management also uses these measures to prepare and update the Company's short and long term financial and operational plans, to evaluate investment decisions, and in its discussions with investors, commercial bankers, equity research analysts and other users of the Company's financial statements. Accordingly, the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company's operating results in the same manner as the Company's management and in comparing operating results across periods and to those of Xometry's peer companies. In addition, from time to time we may present adjusted information (for example, revenue growth) to exclude the impact of certain gains, losses or other changes that affect period-to-period comparability of our operating performance. The use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations because they do not reflect all items of income and expense, or cash flows, that affect the Company's financial performance and operations. Additionally, non-GAAP financial measures do not have standardized meanings, and therefore other companies, including peer companies, may use the same or similarly named measures but exclude or include different items or use different computations. Management compensates for these limitations by reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures in the tables captioned "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" included at the end of this release. Investors and others are encouraged to review the Company's financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. Key Terms for our Key Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures Marketplace revenue: includes the sale of parts and assemblies on our platform. Supplier service revenue: includes the sales of marketing and advertising services and, to a lesser extent, financial service products, SaaS-based solutions and the sale of tools and materials, which was discontinued during the second quarter of 2023. Active Buyers: The Company defines "buyers" as individuals who have placed an order to purchase on-demand parts or assemblies on our marketplace. The Company defines Active Buyers as the number of buyers who have made at least one purchase on our marketplace during the last twelve months. We adjusted the number of our Q1 2023 active buyers in 2024 to reflect an immaterial correction. Active Suppliers: The Company defines "suppliers" as individuals or businesses that have been approved by us to either manufacture a product on our platform for a buyer or have utilized our supplier services, including our digital marketing services, data services, financial services or tools and materials. The Company defines Active Suppliers as suppliers that have used our platform at least once during the last twelve months to manufacture a product or buy tools or materials. Percentage of Revenue from Existing Accounts: The Company defines an "account" as an individual entity, such as a sole proprietor with a single buyer or corporate entities with multiple buyers, having purchased at least one part on our marketplace. The Company defines an existing account as an account where at least one buyer has made a purchase on our marketplace. Accounts with Last Twelve-Month Spend of At Least $50,000: The Company defines Accounts with Last Twelve-Month Spend of At Least $50,000 as an account that has spent at least $50,000 on our marketplace in the most recent twelve-month period. Active Paying Suppliers: The Company defines Active Paying Suppliers as individuals or businesses who have purchased one or more of our supplier services, including digital marketing services, data services, financial services or tools and materials on our platforms, during the last twelve months. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA): The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, adjusted for interest expense, interest and dividend income and other (expenses) income, provision for income taxes, and certain other non-cash or non-recurring items impacting net loss from time to time, principally comprised of depreciation and amortization, amortization of lease intangible, stock-based compensation, charitable contributions of common stock, income from unconsolidated joint venture, impairment of assets, and acquisition and other adjustments not reflective of the Company's ongoing business, such as adjustments related to purchase accounting, the revaluation of contingent consideration, transaction costs and executive severance. Non-GAAP net loss: The Company defines non-GAAP net loss as net loss adjusted for depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, amortization of lease intangible, amortization of deferred costs on convertible notes, loss on sale of property and equipment, charitable contributions of common stock, impairment of assets, and acquisition and other adjustments not reflective of the Company's ongoing business, such as adjustments related to purchase accounting, the revaluation of contingent consideration, transaction costs and executive severance. Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share, basic and diluted (Non-GAAP EPS, basic and diluted): The Company calculates non-GAAP earnings per share, basic and diluted as non-GAAP net loss divided by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Management believes that the exclusion of certain expenses and gains in calculating Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP EPS, basic and diluted provides a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the Company's underlying core revenue and operating costs that is focused more closely on the current costs necessary to operate the Company's businesses and reflects its ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful analysis of trends. Management also believes that excluding certain non-cash charges can be useful because the amount of such expenses is the result of long-term investment decisions made in previous periods rather than day-to-day operating decisions.
