Welcome to Printing Money Episode 24. Troy Jensen, Managing Director of Cantor Fitzgerald, joins Danny Piper, Managing Partner at NewCap Partners, once again as it is time to review the Q3 2024 earnings in the additive manufacturing (AM) industry. Give us 36 minutes and we’ll give you the 3D printing world!
Danny and Troy discuss all of the public company earnings reports, of course. Thanks to some data from AM Research, Danny and Troy also provide commentary on sales and traction from some of the more difficult companies (privately owned, or non-reporting parts of larger public companies) to track.
First Danny and Troy layout the macro picture through which to view the Q3 numbers. Next, they discuss takeaways from Formnext 2024. Then they jump in and run through the financial performance of all the significant 3D printing manufacturers. Along the way they sprinkle in relevant discussion of components and peripherals such as lasers and powder companies.
You can be sure that Printing Money Episode 24 also includes the latest analysis on the consolidating landscape (ie; NNDM buying DM and MKFG) and the biggest hot button issues (ie; Chinese 3D printing vs the West).
Please enjoy Episode 24.
