Summary of Second Quarter 2026 Results
Total revenue was $20.7 million. 3D Printer and parts revenue was $19.0 million and increased 57.0% compared to $12.1 million in the second quarter of 2025. This increase was driven by an increase in the average selling price, product mix, and an increase in RPS revenues related to an increase in production volume. While system sales are expected to remain the primary driver of revenue in 2026, the Company anticipates that, under its new go-to-market strategy, its RPS parts production business will contribute an increasing share of revenue.
Gross margin for the second quarter was 21.5% compared to (11.7)% in the second quarter of 2025. The improvement reflected the impact of a refinement in the allocation of certain labor and overhead costs between cost of revenue and operating expenses to align with current operational activities, as well as higher average selling prices, a more favorable product mix, increased RPS revenue, and manufacturing efficiencies.
Operating expenses for the second quarter were $15.5 million compared to $10.0 million in the second quarter of 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses, excluding stock-based compensation recorded in operating expenses of $2.4 million, were $13.1 million, up from $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2025.
GAAP net loss for the second quarter was ($11.5) million compared to ($13.3) million in the second quarter of 2025, an improvement of $1.8 million.
Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter was ($9.0) million compared to ($11.4) million in the three months ended June 30, 2025. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was ($8.1) million compared to ($8.9) million in the second quarter of 2025. For more information regarding the Company's non-GAAP financial measures, see "Non-GAAP Financial Information" below.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $91.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, compared to $39.0 million as of December 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by net cash provided by financing activities of approximately $99.5 million during the first half of 2026, partially offset by approximately $39.5 million of cash used in operating activities. On April 27, 2026, the Company closed a firm commitment underwritten registered direct offering of 3,571,428 shares of its common stock, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $50 million (approximately $46.6 million net of issuance costs). The Company also raised gross proceeds of approximately $59.4 million during the second quarter under its at-the-market offering program (approximately $57.4 million net of issuance costs). Together with debt-to-equity conversions completed in the period, these actions reduced the Company's total outstanding debt by more than 70% to $8.2 million as of June 30, 2026.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $29 million in new bookings in the second quarter and ending backlog of $31 million.
Jim Suva, Chief Financial Officer of Velo3D, said, "With approximately $91 million in cash and cash equivalents at quarter end, Velo3D has greater financial flexibility to execute our growth strategy and support capacity expansion, technology development and customer programs while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation. Combined with our significantly reduced debt, we believe our strengthened balance sheet supports our ability to execute our strategic initiatives, scale our operations and capitalize on the growing demand for advanced metal additive manufacturing solutions across the aerospace, defense, energy and space markets."
