Despite the revenue shortfall, the company posted a non-GAAP loss of $0.07 per share, a significant improvement from the previous year's $0.14-per-share deficit. This was primarily due to the sale of its Geomagic software portfolio, which contributed to a GAAP net income of $104 million [1, 2].The company attributed the revenue decline to delayed customer investments amid tariff uncertainty and global economic volatility. However, sequential revenue growth of 8% (excluding divested software) indicated early benefits from restructuring efforts. CEO Jeffrey Graves highlighted margin improvements from operational streamlining and growth in the medical and aerospace sectors, including FDA-cleared dental products [1].
