NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Business Description and Basis of Presentation

Stratasys Ltd. (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Stratasys”) is a global leader in connected, polymer-based 3D printing solutions, across the entire manufacturing value chain. The Company leverages its competitive advantages, which include a broad set of best-in-class 3D printing platforms, software, a materials and technology partner ecosystem, innovative leadership, and global GTM infrastructure, in order to position itself to capture share in a significant and growing global marketplace, with a focus on manufacturing. The Company’s approximately 1,600 granted and pending additive technology patents to date have been used to create models, prototypes, manufacturing tools, and production parts for a multitude of industries including aerospace, automotive, transportation, healthcare, consumer products, dental, medical, and education. Stratasys’ products and comprehensive solutions improve product quality, development time, cost, and time-to-market. The Company’s 3D ecosystem of solutions and expertise includes 3D printers, materials, software, expert services, and on-demand parts production.

The condensed consolidated interim financial information herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Stratasys Ltd. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions, including profits from intercompany sales not yet realized outside the Company, have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company's financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which requires the Company to make estimates based on assumptions about current and, for some estimates, future economic and market conditions which affect reported amounts and related disclosures in its financial statements. Although the Company current estimates contemplate current and expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from the Company expectations, which could materially affect its results of operations and financial position.

In particular, a number of estimates have been and will continue to be affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The severity, magnitude and duration of, and recovery from, as well as the economic consequences of, the COVID-19 pandemic, remain uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. As a result, the accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to COVID-19. Such changes could have an additional impact on the Company’s long-lived asset and intangible asset valuation; inventory valuation; assessment of the annual effective tax rate; and the allowance for expected credit losses and bad debt.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not indicative of results that could be expected for the entire fiscal year. Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The reader is referred to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as part of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for such year on March 1, 2021.

Note 2. New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2021

In December 2019, the FASB issued new guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles and simplification of areas such as franchise taxes, step-up in tax basis goodwill, separate entity financial statements and interim recognition of enactment of tax laws or rate changes The guidance will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2021, with no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Certain Transactions

Origin acquisition

On December 31, 2020 (the “Origin transaction date”) the Company acquired 3D printing start-up Origin Laboratories Inc. (“Origin”) for an aggregate purchase price of $97.1 million (the “Origin transaction”), including cash and shares. The acquisition enables Stratasys to expand its leadership through innovation in the fast-growing mass production parts market with a next-generation photopolymer platform. Stratasys expects Origin’s proprietary Programmable PhotoPolymerization (P3) technology to be an important growth engine for the Company. The acquisition was aimed at fortifying the Company's leadership in polymers and production applications of 3D printing in industries such as dental, medical, tooling, and select industrial, defense, and consumer goods markets.

In exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of Origin the Company issued 1,488 thousand ordinary shares, paid cash upon closing, and is obligated to pay additional payments (combination of cash and shares) subject to performance-based earn-outs over 3 years.

The Origin transaction is reflected in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations”, using the acquisition method of accounting with the Company as the acquirer.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the consideration transferred to Origin stockholders for the Origin transaction:

U.S. $ in thousands
Cash payments $ 33,025
Issuance of ordinary shares to Origin stockholders 26,636
Contingent consideration at estimated fair value 37,400
Total consideration $ 97,061

The fair value of the ordinary shares issued was determined based on the closing market price of the Company’s ordinary shares on the Origin transaction date.

In accordance with ASC Topic 805, the estimated contingent consideration as of the Origin transaction date was included in the purchase price. The total contingent payments could reach to a maximum aggregate amount of up to $40 million. Approximately 50% of the payments shall be settled in cash, and 50% shall be settled through the issuance of ordinary shares. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration is based on management’s assessment of whether, and at what level, the financial metrics will be achieved, and the present value factors associated with the timing of the payments. This fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration will be recorded in Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. Refer to note 9.

An additional payment of $6 million, which is subject to the founders' retention over 3 years, will be recorded as compensation expense over the retention period. Compensation expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were approximately $1.1 million and $2.2 million respectively.

STRATASYS LTD.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on the information that is available as of June 30, 2021. Thus, the measurements of fair value reflected are subject to changes and such changes could be significant. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

Allocation of Purchase Price
(U.S. $ in thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents $ 2,083
Goodwill 37,990
Intangible assets 71,120
Other assets 3,586
Total assets acquired 114,779
Net deferred tax liabilities 14,007
Other labilities 3,711
Total liabilities assumed 17,718
Net assets acquired $ 97,061

The allocation of the purchase price to net assets acquired and liability assumed resulted in the recognition of an intangible asset related to developed technology of $71 million. This intangible asset has a useful-life of 10 years. The fair value estimate of the developed technology is determined using a variation of the income approach known as the “Multi-Period Excess Earnings Approach”. This valuation technique estimates the fair value of an asset based on market participants’ expectations of the cash flows an asset would generate over its remaining useful life. The net cash flows were discounted to present value.

Pro forma information giving effect to the acquisition has not been provided as the impact of the transaction for purposes of Stratasys' consolidation results of operations and financial condition would not be material.

RPS acquisition

On February 16, 2021 the Company acquired RP Support Limited (“RPS”), a provider of industrial stereolithography 3D printers and solutions. In exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of RPS, the Company paid cash upon closing and is obligated to make additional payments (in cash), subject to performance-based criteria, via earn-out payments over two years.

Marketable equity investment

The Company recognized in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 a loss of $2.9 million and income of $0.8 million respectively, for revaluation of an equity investment. In prior periods the investment was treated as a non-marketable equity investment without readily determinable fair value. The entity in which the Company invested became public during the first quarter and accordingly the investment is now treated as a marketable equity investment.

Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized, which are primarily related to advanced billings for service type warranty. Contract liabilities are presented under deferred revenues. The Company's deferred revenues as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were as follows:

December 31,
2020
U.S. in thousands
Deferred revenue* 63,392

All values are in US Dollars.

*Includes $15.7 million and $14.2 million under long term deferred revenue in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Revenue recognized in 2021 that was included in deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2020 was $13.7 million and

$32

.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining Performance Obligations (“RPO“) represent contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. As of June 30, 2021, the total RPO amounted to $103.3 million. The Company expects to recognize $86.3 million of this RPO during the next 12 months, $9.9 million over the subsequent 12 months and the remaining $7.1 million thereafter.

Incremental Costs of Obtaining a Contract

Sales commissions earned mainly by the Company’s sales agents are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, as the Company expects the benefit of those commissions to be longer than one year. The majority of the sales commissions are not subject to capitalization, as the commission expense is recognized as the related revenue is recognized. Sales commissions for initial contracts related to the service type warranty are deferred and then amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected customer relationship period if the Company expects to recover those costs. Amortization expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the deferred commissions amounted to $5.9 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

All values are in US Dollars.

*The goodwill was acquired as part of Origin acquisition. See Note 3.

**The goodwill was acquired as part of RPS acquisition. See Note 3.

The goodwill balance as of June 30, 2020 had amounted to $385.6 in respect of the Stratasys-Objet reporting unit.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company noted that indicators of potential impairment existed which required an interim goodwill impairment analysis for Stratasys-Objet reporting unit. These indicators included longer and deeper than expected reduction in the business, refinement to the company’s business focus into additional inorganic technologies and sustained decline in the Company’s market capitalization during the prior two quarters, in each case, primarily as a result of the COVID-19 impact on the global economy and the Company’s business.

As a result of the factors discussed above, the Company revisited its assumptions supporting the cash flow projections for its Stratasys-Objet reporting unit, including: (i) the expected duration and depth of revenue reduction and certain revenue growth assumptions; (ii) the associated operating profit margins; and (iii) the long term growth rate. In estimating the discounted cash flow, the Company used the following key assumptions: the Company currently expects it will take approximately two years to regain the loss of revenue and return to its pre COVID-19 activity levels considering the impact of both volume and price with a similar effect on profitability. Following such period, the Company expects to return to similar growth rates as estimated in prior valuations. The Company assumes a long term terminal growth rate of 2.5%, which is lower than the 3.1% used in prior valuations. In addition, changes in business focus due to introduction of new technologies is expected to lower the total revenues related to the Stratasys-Objet reporting unit. The resulting cash flow amounts were discounted using the same discount rate of 13.5%.

Based on the revised cash flow projections, the value of the reporting unit had decreased below its carrying value, and the Company recorded in the third quarter of 2020, goodwill impairment charge of $386.2 million, the entire reporting unit’s goodwill.

Note 8. Income Taxes

The Company had income tax benefit of $4.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to income tax benefit of $2.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, and income tax benefit of $5.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to income tax benefit of $1.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. The Company’s effective tax rate as of June 30, 2021 was primarily impacted by the move to the new Israeli tax regime of “Preferred Technology Enterprise” subject to 12% tax rate as well as different geographic mixes of earnings and losses and a valuation allowance on losses of our US subsidiaries.

Note 9. Fair Value Measurements

Financial instruments measured at fair value

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis, in its consolidated balance sheets:

Contingent consideration 40,436 - 37,400
$ 40,436 $ (1,833 ) $ 37,400

All values are in US Dollars.

The Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts are classified as Level 2, as they are not actively traded and are valued using pricing models that use observable market inputs, including interest rate curves and both forward and spot prices for currencies (Level 2 inputs).

Contingent consideration represents liabilities recorded at fair value in connection with acquisitions, and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy (refer to Note 3).

Other financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, current and non-current assets, accounts payable and other current liabilities. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values.

Note 10. Derivative instruments and hedging activities

Since the Company conducts its operations globally, it is exposed to global market risks and to the risk that its earnings, cash flows and equity could be adversely impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company enters into transactions involving foreign currency exchange derivative financial instruments. The Company manages its foreign currency exposures on a consolidated basis, which allows the Company to net exposures and take advantage of any natural hedging. The transactions are designed to manage the Company’s net exposure to foreign currency exchange rates and to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for trading purposes.

The Company is primarily exposed to foreign exchange risk with respect to recognized assets and liabilities and forecasted transactions denominated in the New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”), Euro, GBP, Korean Won, Chinese Yuan and the Japanese Yen. The gains and losses on the hedging instruments partially offset losses and gains on the hedged items. Financial markets and currency volatility may limit the Company’s ability to hedge these exposures. These contracts mature through December 2021.

The following table summarizes the consolidated balance sheets classification and fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments:

Fair Value Notional Amount

All values are in US Dollars.

Foreign exchange contracts not designated as hedging instruments

As of June 30, 2021, the notional amounts of the Company’s outstanding exchange forward contracts, not designated as hedging instruments, were $59.7 million, and were used to reduce foreign currency exposures. With respect to such derivatives, losses of $0.5 million and of $1.1 million were recognized under financial income (expenses), net for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Such gains or losses partially offset the foreign currency revaluation changes of the balance sheet items. These foreign currencies revaluation changes are also recognized under financial income (expenses), net.

Cash Flow Hedging - Hedges of forecasted foreign currency payroll and other operating expenses

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had in effect foreign exchange forward contracts, designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes, for the conversion of $17.5 million into NIS. The Company uses short-term cash flow hedge contracts to reduce its exposure to variability in expected future cash flows resulting mainly from payroll costs and other operating expenses denominated in NIS. The changes in fair value of those contracts are included in the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Cash Flow Hedging - Hedges of forecasted foreign currency revenue

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had in effect foreign exchange forward contracts, designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes, for the conversion of 24.0 million Euro into U.S. dollars. The Company transacts business in U.S. dollars and in various other currencies. The Company may use foreign exchange or forward contracts to hedge certain cash flow exposures resulting from changes in these foreign currency exchange rates. These foreign exchange contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities of up to twelve months. The Company enters into these foreign exchange contracts to hedge a portion of its forecasted foreign currency denominated revenue in the normal course of business and accordingly, they are not speculative in nature.

Exhibit 99.2

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K to which this Operating and Financial Review and Prospects is attached, or the Form 6-K. The discussion below contains forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws) that are based upon our current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to inaccurate assumptions and known or unknown risks and uncertainties, including those identified in “Forward-Looking Statements and Factors that May Affect Future Results of Operations” and “Risk Factors” below, as well in the “Risk Factors” in Item 3.D of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 1, 2021, or our 2020 Annual Report.

Overview of Business and Trend Information

We are a global leader in connected, polymer-based 3D printing solutions, across the entire manufacturing value chain. Leveraging distinct competitive advantages that include a broad set of best-in-class 3D printing platforms, software, a materials and technology partner ecosystem, innovative leadership, and global GTM infrastructure, we are positioned to capture share in a significant and growing global marketplace, with a focus on manufacturing, which we view as having the largest and fastest growing total addressable market.

Our approximately 1,600 granted and pending additive technology patents to date have been used to create models, prototypes, manufacturing tools, and production parts for a multitude of industries including aerospace, automotive, transportation, healthcare, consumer products, dental, medical, and education. Our products and comprehensive solutions improve product quality, development time, cost, and time-to-market. Our 3D ecosystem of solutions and expertise includes 3D printers, materials, software, expert services, and on-demand parts production.

With our recent acquisition of Origin Laboratories, Inc., or Origin, we have significantly strengthened our leadership in mass production for polymer 3D printing. Origin’s pioneering approach to additive manufacturing of end-use parts will enable us to serve a large market with manufacturing-grade 3D printers, utilizing P^3^ Programmable PhotoPolymerization. This technology precisely controls light, heat, and force, among other variables, to produce parts with exceptional accuracy and consistency.

Our acquisition, in the first quarter of 2021, of UK-based RP Support Ltd., or RPS, a provider of industrial stereolithography 3D printers and solutions, provides us with a complementary technology that further expands our polymer suite of solutions across the product life cycle.

COVID Impact

As in preceding quarters, our results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 should be evaluated in light of the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, which has disrupted businesses on a global scale. Our revenues in the second quarter of 2021 furthered the positive trend begun in the first quarter of the year, reflecting growth both on a year-over-year basis and on a sequential quarterly basis. The six-month results evidence these improvements on an aggregate basis, with an increase in revenues by 12.2% compared to the corresponding six month period of 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacted our revenues significantly. Our improved performance in the second quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by a 39.1 % increase in Consumables revenues and by a 32% increase in system revenues.

In the second quarter of 2021, we continued working at full-capacity on a global basis, with a high percentage of our employees throughout the world having received vaccines against COVID-19 during or prior to the quarter.

Our cost realignment program is an essential step in our ongoing strategic process, designed to better position the company for sustainable growth. These measures are not expected to affect the progress of our forthcoming product launch plans.

We continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19, assessing implications for our operations, supply chain, liquidity, cash flow and customer orders, and have been acting in an effort to mitigate adverse consequences as needed. We ended the second quarter of 2021 with $522.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term deposits, which is similar to our liquid assets level as of the end of the first quarter of 2021. We believe that we are well suited to continue to manage the COVID-19 pandemic (to the extent that it continues to remain a significant factor) with a strong balance sheet and no debt, while focusing on cost controls and cash generation. We selectively applied the R&D cost controls to ensure that our NPI programs were not affected, and we plan to continue investing as needed in order to support our new product development programs.

Operating Expenses

The amount of each type of operating expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, as well as the percentage change reflected thereby, and total operating expenses as a percentage of our total revenues in each such quarter, were as follows:

Three Months Ended June 30,
2020 % Change

Research and development, net $ 21,303 5.3 %
Selling, general & administrative 51,711 22.9 %
$ 73,014 17.8 %
Percentage of revenues % 62.1 %

All values are in US Dollars.

Operating expenses were $86.0 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to operating expenses of $73.0 million in the second quarter of 2020. The increase in operating expenses was driven by the increase in operating activities in the second quarter of 2021 relative to the corresponding quarter of 2020. While increasing on an absolute basis, our operating expenses decreased as a percentage of our revenues in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020. Operating expenses were up primarily due to the return to a five-day workweek, post-COVID expenses as the market started opening up, and commissions due to more revenue.

Research and development expenses, net increased by $1.1 million, or 5.3%, to $22.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The amount of research and development expenses constituted 15.3% of our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to 18.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Our research and development expenses were impacted by the timing of project spending and product launches, based on our portfolio management. We continue to invest in strategic long-term initiatives that include advancements in our core FDM and PolyJet technologies and in our new photopolymer-based P3 technology, advanced composite materials, software and development of new applications which will enhance our current solutions offerings.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $11.8 million, or 22.9%, to $63.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $51.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, driven by the increase in operating activities and a loss of $2.9 million for revaluation of an equity investment in the second quarter of 2021.

Operating loss amounted to $22.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to an operating loss of $29.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in operating loss was primarily attributable to the significant increase in gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020,  partly offset by increased operating expenses, as discussed above.

Financial Income (Expenses), net

Financial expenses, net, which was primarily comprised of foreign currencies effects, interest income and interest expenses, was $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to financial income, net of $0.1 million for the three months ended  June 30, 2020.

Share in Losses of Associated Companies

Share in losses of associated companies reflects our proportionate share of the losses of unconsolidated entities accounted for by using the equity method of accounting. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the loss from our proportionate share of the losses of our equity method investments was $1.4 million, compared to a loss of $1.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020.

The decrease in the net loss attributable to Stratasys Ltd. was primarily attributable to the higher gross profit, as well as cost-mitigation measures, which reduced operating expenses as a percentage of revenues, as described above.

Net loss per share was $0.31 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to net loss per share of $0.51 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The weighted average fully diluted share count was 64.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 54.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020, which increase reflected the issuance of shares in our follow-on offering that was consummated in march 2021.

Supplemental Operating Results on a Non-GAAP Basis

The following non-GAAP data, which excludes certain items as described below, are non-GAAP financial measures. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful information for investors and shareholders of our company in gauging our results of operations (i) on an ongoing basis after excluding mergers, acquisitions and divestments related expense or gains and restructuring-related charges or gains, and (ii) excluding non-cash items such as stock-based compensation expenses, acquired intangible assets amortization, including intangible assets amortization related to equity method investments, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, revaluation of our investments and the corresponding tax effect of those items. These non-GAAP adjustments either do not reflect actual cash outlays that impact our liquidity and our financial condition or have a non-recurring impact on the statement of operations, as assessed by management. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses our performance for internal planning and forecasting purposes. The limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures as performance measures are that they provide a view of our results of operations without including all items indicated above during a period, which may not provide a comparable view of our performance to other companies in our industry. Investors and other readers should consider non-GAAP measures only as supplements to, not as substitutes for or as superior measures to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in a table below.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period 293,597
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period 284,855

All values are in US Dollars.

Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balance increased to $343.9 million as of June 30, 2021 from $272.2 million as of December 31, 2020. The increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to the public offering of shares in a net amount of $218.9 million that we completed in March 2021, partially offset by investing activities.

Cash flows from operating activities

We generated $28.4 million of cash from operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021. That cash generation reflects our $39.1 million net loss, as adjusted to eliminate non-cash charges included in net loss, including $27.7 million of depreciation and amortization and $15.2 million of stock-based compensation expenses. Favorable changes in our working capital balances were mainly driven by a decrease in our inventory balances and an increase in our accounts payable balance.

Cash flows from investing activities

We used $177.7 million of cash in our investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Cash was primarily used to invest $11.9 million to purchase property, equipment and intangibles and $152.0 million net investment in short-term bank deposits. Our principal property and equipment purchases were for our new buildings complex under construction in Rehovot, Israel. The new facility in Rehovot, Israel, which will contain two buildings, houses our Israeli headquarters, research and development facilities and certain marketing activities. In addition, we used $6.7 million of cash for acquisitions, net of cash acquired.

Cash flows from financing activities

We generated $222.8 million of cash from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Our follow-on public offering of shares generated proceeds, net of issuance costs of $218.9 million, and we generated an additional $3.5 million of proceeds from exercise of stock options.

21


Capital resources and capital expenditures

Our total current assets amounted to $785.4 million as of June 30, 2021, of which $522.7 million consisted of cash, cash equivalents, short-term deposits and restricted cash. Total current liabilities amounted to $158.6 million. Most of our cash and cash equivalents are held in banks in Israel and the U.S.

The credit risk related to our accounts receivable is limited due to the relatively large number of customers and their wide geographic distribution. In addition, we seek to reduce the credit exposure related to our accounts receivable by imposing credit limits, conducting ongoing credit evaluation, and by implementing account monitoring procedures, as well as credit insurance for many of our customers.

We believe that we will have adequate cash and cash equivalents to fund our ongoing operations and that these sources of liquidity will be sufficient to satisfy our capital expenditure and working capital needs for the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have prepared our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This has required us to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affected the amounts we reported. Actual results may differ from those estimates. To facilitate the understanding of our business activities, certain accounting policies that are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s subjective judgments are described in our 2020 Annual Report. We base our judgments on our experience and various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Certain information included in or incorporated by reference into the Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K to which this Operating and Financial Review is appended, or the Form 6-K, may be deemed to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are those that predict or describe future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “believe,” “project,” “plan,” “assume” or other similar expressions, or negatives of those expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

These forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our future strategy, future operations, projected financial position, proposed products, estimated future revenues, projected costs, future prospects, the future of our industry and results that might be obtained by pursuing management’s current plans and objectives.

You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements because the matters they describe are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Our forward-looking statements are based on the information currently available to us and speak only as of the date of the Form 6-K. Over time, our actual results, performance or achievements may differ from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, and such difference might be significant and materially adverse to our shareholders. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Important factors that could cause actual results, developments and business decisions to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements include, among other things:

the extent of our success at introducing new or improved products and solutions that gain market share;

the extent of growth of the 3D printing market generally;

the duration and severity of the global COVID-19 pandemic, and the strength of recovery from it, which may continue to have significant consequences for our operations, financial position, cash flows, and those of our customers and suppliers;

changes in our overall strategy, including as related to any restructuring activities and our capital expenditures;

the impact of shifts in prices or margins of the products that we sell or services we provide;

the impact of competition and new technologies;

impairments of goodwill or other intangible assets in respect of companies that we acquire;

the extent of our success at efficiently and successfully integrating the operations of various companies that we have acquired or may acquire;

global market, political and economic conditions, and in the countries in which we operate in particular;

government regulations and approvals;

litigation and regulatory proceedings;

23


infringement of our intellectual property rights by others (including for replication and sale of consumables for use in our systems), or infringement of others’ intellectual property rights by us;

•  the extent of our success at maintaining our liquidity and financing our operations and capital needs;

impact of tax regulations on our results of operations and financial conditions; and

those factors referred to in Item 3.D, “Key Information - Risk Factors”, Item 4, “Information on the Company”, and Item 5, “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” in our 2020 Annual Report, as supplemented herein, as well as in other portions of the 2020 Annual Report

Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made throughout the Form 6-K, our 2020 Annual Report, and in our other reports filed with or furnished to the SEC, which are designed to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Reference is made to Item 11, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our 2020 Annual Report.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are subject to various litigation and other legal proceedings from time to time. For a discussion of our litigation status, see Note 12-“Contingencies” in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 6-K.

RISK FACTORS

The global COVID-19 health pandemic has been adversely affectingand could potentially severely adversely affect, our business, results ofoperations and financial condition due to impacts on the industries in whichour customers operate, as well as impacts from actions taken to contain thedisease or treat its impact, and due to the unknown speed and extent of therecovery from the disease.

The COVID-19 global pandemic continues to have numerous adverse effects on the global economy. While a significant portion of many Western countries’ adult citizens have been vaccinated against the virus, the new Delta variant of the virus is more contagious than the original strain and has shown to be capable of spreading even among vaccinated populations. Governmental shutdowns and “shelter-in-place” orders suggested or mandated by governmental authorities or otherwise elected by companies as a preventative measure, continue to adversely affected workforces, customers, consumer sentiment, economies and certain financial markets, and, along with decreased consumer spending, have adversely impacted many of the markets into which we sell our products and services.

Those effects of the pandemic have been adversely impacting our financial results for our operations in all global regions, beginning already in the first quarter of 2020 and continuing through the second quarter of 2021.

While we have imposed counter-measures to try to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on our operating results and our results have shown improvement concurrently with recovery in some of the markets into which we sell, there is no certainty that the success of those measures and that recovery will continue, especially in light of the entry of the Delta variant into the population in some of those markets. We continue to monitor the cost-control measures that we first began to implement in February 2020. We have maintained in place certain cost reduction mechanisms, although we have eliminated others, such as our four-day work week, as we returned to a full work week, effective as of the start of 2021.

While we continue to monitor the situation, assessing further implications for our operations, supply chain, liquidity, cash flow and customer orders, and have implemented the foregoing measures in an effort to mitigate adverse consequences, while simultaneously abiding by any government-imposed restrictions, market by market, there is no assurance that we can succeed at doing so.

In addition to the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operating results, we furthermore face uncertainty as to the degree and duration of that impact going forward, and as to the degree of recovery from it. We do not know the length of time that the pandemic and related disruptions will continue, the impact of governmental regulations or easement of regulations in response to the strengthening or weakening of the pandemic, and the degree of overall potentially permanent changes in consumer behavior that may be caused by the pandemic. The pandemic may furthermore contribute towards global economic weakness that is more than temporary and that could adversely affect demand for our products and services generally. A future downturn could also have a material adverse impact on our business partners’ stability and financial strength. Given the uncertainties associated with COVID-19, it is difficult to fully predict the magnitude of effects on our, and our business partners’, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Any limited guidance for 2021 that we may provide will lack the certainty that we once had in providing that guidance, due to the number of variables surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and recovery.

The COVID-19 pandemic may also have the effect of amplifying many of the other risks described under the caption “Item 3. Key Information— D. Risk Factors” in our 2020 Annual Report.
