CEO MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS:

Dear Shareholders,

Nano Dimension’s strong organic growth continues. Our efforts to scale our business with a focus on revenue growth and gross margin improvement are delivering results. Revenue of $41.9 million for the first nine months of 2023 was 33% higher than the same period in 2022. Gross margins and adjusted gross margins also increased considerably for the first nine months of 2023 compared to same period in 2022 from 20% to 44% and 36% to 48%, respectively.

This revenue increase happened during notable macroeconomic uncertainty which challenged all companies in our ecosystem. The fact that our leading peers have posted year-over-year declines in revenue for their respective first nine months of 2023 makes our 33% growth even more notable. This is a result of our successful efforts to close new high-profile customer relationships, secure recurring sales from existing customers, and develop new products that open greater opportunities.

The marked improvements in our gross margins – IFRS and adjusted – are driven by our meticulous, ongoing efforts to improve our supply chain and how we make and deliver our products. We have been laser-focused on this effort as we work to drive profitability. A positive bottom line cannot happen without a healthy margin, and we have positioned the Company for just that.

I would like to acknowledge the investors and other stakeholders who have supported us on an individual and collective level with their concern and well-wishes as the war of Israel against Hamas terrorism (the “War”) continues.

Our focus remains on meeting our business targets, especially the new initiatives we have implemented to drive improved profitability, as described below. Despite the War, we are confident that we are on track to meet our full-year 2023 expectations.

Another unwelcomed hostility, of the “business type”, involved our interaction with dissident shareholders this year. It is unfortunate, despite our attempts to settle these matters in an amicable manner, that we needed to deploy time and money, over $15M in 2023 alone, to defend Nano against the self-interested pursuit of these shareholders. That said, we are grateful that – through your support – their efforts were defeated at the last Annual Shareholders Meeting.

We should also note that we have acted on the feedback we received from ISS, Glass Lewis and shareholders throughout this process, including making changes to our board of directors’ composition and governance, to ensure we are best positioned to guide Nano in delivering value for you, our shareholders.

In addition to those actions, we shall finish 2023 and orient 2024 around a new initiative – Reshaping Nano (the “Initiative”). Considering the current macro environment as well as investor feedback gathered through our ongoing engagements, the Initiative is designed to enable Nano Dimension to become operating income positive at some point in 2025, and potentially cash flow positive earlier. To do this, we are thinking critically about our operating expenses across R&D, sales & marketing, and general & administrative expenses.

Over the last several years, we have expanded Nano’s platform from a niche company focused on AME into a broad AM, Additive Electronics, leveraging our DeepCube Artificial Intelligence for industrial applications leader. The Initiative will be the next step in driving performance across our platform by leveraging synergies and setting clear financial objectives for each group across the business and the product lines within them. We believe that the Initiative will result in approximately $30 million of annual savings, which should begin to appear in our Q1/2024 results. It is important to note that this strategy is not sacrificing innovation and future growth engines. This is about setting financial objectives that reflect the maturity of the respective groups and product lines. We will continue to invest where we see the most robust future opportunities.

In parallel with the Initiative, we quickly approach the epicenter of mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”) opportunities, with the benefit of our significant cash firepower and the reduction of valuations in our industry. As we have stated previously, we believe that our industry is ripe for consolidation and we are well-positioned with both the financial, managerial and leadership resources to execute these efforts. As we pursue this path, we will balance potential M&A, ground-breaking R&D, and high-returning go-to-market investments with repurchasing shares at attractive valuation levels, particularly in light of Nano Dimension’s shares currently trading at a discount to net asset value. We will remain disciplined in our capital allocation approach to ensure we are capitalizing on the best way to deliver shareholder value.

Thank you for your support.

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, 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.
