CEO MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS:
“We delivered significant revenue growth in the first quarter of 2023, with the third record-setting quarter in a row, defined by exceptional performance and steady quarterly organic growth since July 2022. While we still have 6 months left to go in 2023, at this point we hope to be ahead of the annual budget which our Board of Directors has set for us.
One of the most exciting developments this quarter is the fast adoption of our Deep Learning/AI technology, developed by our DeepCube division. It is now effectively installed in our newer models of machines, advancing industrial inspection, print quality optimization, process optimization, and monitoring and maintenance of machines.
While DeepCube is a significant value-add to new and existing customers, we are starting to receive requests from industrial customers to sell them the “DeepCube AI Engine” by itself, to be installed on their own machines, thereby turning our DeepCube group into a “stand-alone” revenue generating division.
Our Additive Electronic business has been growing organically for almost a year, in spite of the continued crisis in the European economy, especially in the DACH countries. Our AME printing business is advancing on budget, supported by impressive achievements in chemical development of dielectric and conductive printing consumable materials. In parallel, IPC International, Inc. (IPC), a global association that helps original equipment manufacturers, Electronics Manufacturing services, printed circuit board manufacturers, and suppliers build electronics better, has accepted our efforts of over a year – and is now adopting new standards for AME specifications. In the Additive Manufacturing and Ink Services product lines we are experiencing steady advancements as well.
Our organic growth is expected to be fully supported by our merger and acquisition (M&A) strategy. Consistent with our stated long-term strategy, strong market position, and robust balance sheet, we remain ideally positioned to act as a consolidator in the highly fragmented AM market landscape, which consists of small- and medium-sized businesses that are currently cash negative and “floating” on high valuations. We intend to accelerate our M&A strategy by carefully investing in assets that will create return on investment and value expansion for our shareholders, contrary to unprofitability which is still a common denominator for many players in the AM industry.”

Non-IFRS measures
The following are reconciliations of income before taxes, as calculated in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as well as of gross profit, as calculated in accordance with IFRS, to Adjusted Gross Profit:

| Net income | 21,959 | |||
| Tax expenses | 74 | |||

| Finance income from revaluation of assets and liabilities | (44,777 | ) | ||
| Exchange rate differences | 3,045 | |||
| Share-based compensation expenses | 6,124 | |||
| Adjusted EBITDA (loss) | (23,672 | ) | ||
| For the Three-Month Period Ended | ||||||||

| Gross profit | 1,001 | 6,566 | ||||||

| Adjusted gross profit | 4,187 | 7,054 | ||||||
EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as income before taxes, excluding depreciation and amortization expenses and amortization of assets recognized in business combination and interest income. We believe that EBITDA, as described above, should be considered in evaluating the Company’s operations. EBITDA facilitates the Company’s performance comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, and the age and depreciation charges and amortization of fixed and intangible assets, respectively (affecting relative depreciation and amortization expense, respectively), and EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it is widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to the items mentioned above.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as income before taxes, excluding depreciation and amortization expenses and amortization of assets recognized in business combination, interest income, finance income for revaluation of assets and liabilities, exchange rate differences and share-based payments. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, as described above, should also be considered in evaluating the Company’s operations. Like EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA facilitates the Company’s performance comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, and the age and depreciation charges and amortization of fixed and intangible assets, respectively (affecting relative depreciation and amortization expense, respectively), as well as from revaluation of assets and liabilities, exchange rate differences and share-based payment expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because it is widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to non-cash items, such as expenses related to revaluation, exchange rate differences and share-based payments.
Adjusted gross profit, excluding depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation expenses, is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as gross profit excluding amortization expenses. We believe that adjusted gross profit, as described above, should also be considered in evaluating the Company’s operations. Adjusted gross profit facilitates gross profit and gross margin comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in amortization of inventory and intangible assets. Adjusted gross profit is useful to an investor in evaluating our performance because it enables investors, securities analysts and other interested parties to measure a company’s performance without regard to non-cash items, such as amortization expenses. Adjusted gross margin is calculated by dividing the adjusted gross profit by the revenues.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted gross profit do not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) as indicators of our operating performance or as measures of our liquidity. These measures should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) as presented in our consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Other companies may calculate these measures differently than we do.
