Waltham, Massachusetts, June 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nano Dimension Ltd. (Nasdaq: NNDM, “Nano Dimension” or the “Company”), a leading supplier of Additively Manufactured Electronics (“AME”) and multi-dimensional polymer, metal & ceramic Additive Manufacturing (“AM”) 3D printers, highlighted today the strength of its leadership team’s vision and experience, which includes eight former CEOs and founders, as well as leaders who have held a combined approximately 30 positions as CEOs, Presidents, General Managers and/or Chairmen over the last 30 years.

The management team represents a deep bench of top-caliber leadership with a long track record of driving value creation through over 80 M&A transactions, further highlighting why Nano Dimension is the right partner for Stratasys Ltd. (Nasdaq: SSYS) (“Stratasys”).

Nano Dimension has the right offer, the right plan, and the right leadership to deliver value to Stratasys shareholders;

  • Nano’s $18 per share all-cash special tender offer delivers to Stratasys shareholders near-term, GUARANTEED cash value at a compelling premium. The successful completion of the special tender offer would increase Nano Dimension’s beneficial ownership of Stratasys to between 53% and 55% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Stratasys, inclusive of the approximately 14.1% of Stratasys’ outstanding ordinary shares that Nano Dimension currently owns.

  • Nano’s increased ownership, combined with its plans to replace the majority of Stratasys’ entrenched Board of Directors, provides a clear path to fix Stratasys, by driving improved profitability and preventing the ill-conceived and dilutive transaction with Desktop Metal Inc. (NYSE:DM) (“DM”) that presents significant uncertainty and tremendous risk of depletion of all cash, as both Stratasys and DM continue to lose cash on a quarterly basis.

Nano is confident that its seasoned management team and strong growth strategy will deliver long-term value to Stratasys shareholders.

Nano’s leadership team includes eight former CEOs and founders, as well as leaders who have held approximately 30 positions as CEO, President, General Manager and/or Chairman over the last 30 years. These leaders have extensive management expertise and a proven track record of successfully growing technology companies and driving value creation. Of particular note:

  • Nano’s Chairman and CEO, Yoav Stern, has built and led over 6 companies, most of them U.S. public companies, some of which he has grown from single-digit million-dollar revenue companies, to companies generating hundreds of millions of dollars in annual revenue through both organic and inorganic growth strategies. In addition, Mr. Stern has also generated exits for investors at a ROI ranging from 2-3 times the initial investment over 1-2 years.
  • Nano’s President, Zivi Nedivi, has served as the CEO of 5 companies and founder of 2 others, including U.S. and foreign companies, public and private. As CEO of an aviation supply chain company, Mr. Nedivi oversaw revenue growth from $8 million to $300 million in a five-year period, including nine acquisitions. As COO of a medical laser company, Mr. Nedivi managed thousands of employees across five continents.
  • Nano’s Chief Product Officer & Head of M&A, Hanan Gino, has served as CEO of a multimillion-dollar cybersecurity company and as the head of the commercial divisions of an $800 million electronics optical inspection business. Mr. Gino also brings prodigious experience in robotics, artificial intelligence, and automation.
  • Nano’s President of Americas, Dale Baker, has led 5 companies, 3 of them public, and oversaw the growth of hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, in addition to spending many years as a senior executive at General Electric.

The Nano team’s wealth of leadership experience has allowed the Company to maintain innovative and nimble operations, and is poised to drive growth and operational excellence, specifically focusing on Stratasys, as it is expected to become the main business asset of Nano Dimension.

Nano’s management has successfully integrated 6 companies in 18 months and harnessed M&A synergies to drive value and growth in revenue, gross margins, and profits, in addition to organic growth initiatives:

  • Through seamless integration, Nano’s team of best-in-class executives and managers has consistently unlocked the potential of acquired companies by leveraging its strategic footprint and platform.
  • Overall, companies acquired by Nano have outgrown and outpaced peers in the Additive Manufacturing Industry.

Nano’s ambitious and focused M&A strategy, combined with strong organic growth, are expected to continue to drive future value creation:

  • Nano’s management was decisive and forward-thinking, taking advantage of the low cost of capital and strong market appetite to raise $1.5 billion in equity financing and subsequently maintain acquisition discipline, while preserving approximately $1.1 billion of cash, bank deposits, and investment in securities as long as prices of acquisitions in the market were grossly overvalued during 2021-2022.
  • Nano has the cash firepower to continue to build its business – unlike any of its peers – and is executing on a multi-pronged and synergistic growth strategy buoyed by its strong fundamentals.
  • Nano continues to see significant opportunities ahead and is ideally positioned to act as a consolidator in the highly fragmented market landscape with numerous attractive potential targets.
  • Nano’s revenue is expected to continue to increase, having more than tripled from 2020 to 2021, and grown more than 12x in 2022 compared to 2020 – proof of the success of Nano’s “buy and build” platform scaling strategy.
  • Nano grew revenue organically 37% quarter-over-quarter Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022.
  • Nano’s differentiated technology offerings are supported by next-generation digital manufacturing and AM technologies. The Company’s fast adoption of groundbreaking Deep Learning and AI technologies led by Nano’s DeepCube division are gradually installed in Nano’s 3D Printing Machines, in addition to seeing strong demand from industrial customers keen to install it in their own machines. Hence, Nano is investing resources to support this business and position it to succeed as a new, standalone division independently generating revenue.
