SANTA FE, NM / ACCESSWIRE / October 21, 2021 / Sigma Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ:SGLB) ("Sigma Labs" or the "Company"), a leading developer of quality assurance software for the commercial 3D metal printing industry, has reported its financial and operational results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Key Third Quarter 2021 Highlights

  • Company's first multi-unit sale, to a U.S. Department of Energy contractor. One PrintRite3D system will support an Additive Industries MetaFAB1 quad laser printer. The second system is in support of an SLM 3D metal printer.
  • First sale to a prestigious U. S. National Laboratory for ongoing research and development in support of an EOS 3D metal printer.
  • Selected by DMG MORI (DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT) as the official supplier of In-process Quality Assurance (IPQA) monitoring systems for its prestigious DMG MORI Qualified Products (DMQP) program.
  • Appointed former GE additive manufacturing executive Jacob Brunsberg as Senior Vice President, strengthening in-process quality assurance product development and commercialization programs.
  • Sponsored and participated in industry conferences in the U.S. and Germany to showcase its PrintRite3D Version 7.0, an industry-leading system for in-process quality assurance for industrial 3D manufacturers including RAPID + TCT, North America's largest and most important additive manufacturing event, AM2021: Additive Manufacturing Conference and Expo, Formnext 2021, and The International Conference on Additive Manufacturing - ASTM ICAM 2021.

Management Commentary

"This quarter is further validation of the increasing awareness of the need for a third party in-process quality assurance (IPQA) system," said Mark K. Ruport, President and CEO of Sigma Labs, "Revenues for the quarter were up 182% to $0.7 million on the strength of our first PrintRite3D multi-unit sale to a U.S. Department of Energy contractor as well as a single unit sale to a U.S. National Laboratory. The fact that PrintRite3D was selected by the end users to support metal printers from multiple leading 3D printer OEM's, two of which have their own monitoring systems, further demonstrates the need for standard quality metrics across a heterogeneous set of printers.

"Our focus for the remainder of 2021 and 2022 is to continue to build out our field sales organization with sales and support engineers that have significant industry experience to support our existing partners such as DMG MORI, Additive Industries, Materialise and other industry leading companies. In addition, we are actively pursuing OEM relationships with both new printer manufacturers as well as some of the more established OEMs. We believe both initiatives will further position the company for growth as Additive Manufacturing, and more specifically, 3D metal printing, move from prototyping to full production.

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Revenue for the third quarter of 2021 totaled $0.7 million compared to revenues of $0.25 million for the third quarter of 2020, an increase of 0.5 million or 182%. The increase driven by increased PrintRite3D unit sales, including the Company's first multi-unit sale.
