Second Quarter 2016 Results
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2016 increased by 11.4% to 27,597 kEUR compared to 24,772 kEUR for the second quarter of 2015, with gains in all three of our segments. Adjusted EBITDA increased from (179) kEUR to 1,034 kEUR, as a result of the combination of continued revenue growth, an improvement in our gross margins and a moderate increase in operational expenses. The Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue) in the second quarter was 3.7% compared to (0.7)% in the second quarter of last year.
Revenue from our Materialise Software segment, which offers a proprietary software backbone that enables and enhances the functionality of 3D printers and 3D printing operations worldwide, increased by 14.9% to 6,981 kEUR for the second quarter of 2016 from 6,078 kEUR for the same quarter last year, driven by the continued growth of recurring license revenue. Segment EBITDA declined to 1,602 kEUR from 2,015 kEUR while the segment EBITDA margin (the segment’s EBITDA divided by the segment’s revenue) was 22.9% compared to 33.2% in the prior-year period. This change reflects a significant increase in research and development (“R&D”) expenses for well-defined software projects we have recently undertaken.
Revenue from our Materialise Medical segment, which offers a unique platform consisting of medical planning and design software, clinical engineering services and patient specific devices, increased by 16.7% to 9,706 kEUR for the second quarter of 2016 compared to 8,315 kEUR for the same period in 2015. The increase was driven by direct sales of our complex surgery solutions, which increased by 41.7% from the prior-year period, and by sales from our collaborated medical device business, which increased 13.6%. Our medical software sales decreased by 2.0% compared to the same quarter in 2015. Segment EBITDA improved to 14 kEUR from (342) kEUR while the segment EBITDA margin improved to 0.1% from (4.1)% in the second quarter of 2015.
Revenue from our Materialise Manufacturing segment, which offers an integrated suite of 3D printing and engineering services to industrial and commercial customers, increased 5.1% to 10,907 kEUR for the second quarter of 2016 from 10,379 kEUR for the second quarter of 2015, primarily as a result of higher end part manufacturing. Segment EBITDA rose to 430 kEUR from (147) kEUR while the segment EBITDA margin increased to 3.9% from (1.4)% for the 2015 quarter. Excluding our growth businesses, i.materialise and RapidFit, the segment EBITDA margin for the second quarter was 13.0% compared to 8.4% for the same quarter of the prior year.
Gross profit was 16,253 kEUR, or 58.9% of total revenue, for the second quarter of 2016 compared to 14,327 kEUR, or 57.8% of total revenue, for the second quarter of 2015. The increase was primarily a result of the improvement in the gross margin of the Materialise Manufacturing segment.
R&D, sales and marketing (“S&M”) and general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased, in the aggregate, by 8.1% to 19,182 kEUR for the second quarter of 2016 from 17,738 kEUR for the second quarter of 2015. R&D expenses increased from 4,371 kEUR to 4,760 kEUR while S&M expenses declined slightly from 9,620 kEUR to 9,533 kEUR. G&A expenses increased from 3,747 kEUR to 4,889 kEUR. These changes compared to last year primarily reflected the managerial structure and support we have been implementing within our S&M and R&D groups to support their significant growth since our initial public offering (“IPO”). A number of employees with mixed roles within these groups have evolved into more managerial/administrative roles, and their cost as well as certain other expenses are now categorized into G&A.
Net other operating income increased by 304 kEUR to 1,778 kEUR, compared to 1,474 kEUR for the second quarter of 2015. Net other operating income consists primarily of withholding tax exemptions for qualifying researchers, development grants, partial funding of R&D projects and currency exchange results on purchase and sales transactions.
Net financial result was 207 kEUR, compared to (938) kEUR for the prior-year period, reflecting the variance in the currency exchange rate, primarily on the portion of the company’s IPO proceeds held in U.S. dollars versus the euro, a reported but mostly unrealized exchange gain.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2016 was (436) kEUR, compared to a net loss of (3,013) kEUR for the same period in the prior year: an improvement of 2,577 kEUR, as a result of an increase of 786 kEUR of operating profit, an improvement of the financial result of 1,077 kEUR, and an improvement in income tax income of 714 kEUR primarily due to a decrease of tax liabilities. Total comprehensive loss for the second quarter of 2016, which reflects exchange differences on translation of foreign operations, was (911) kEUR compared to (2,850) kEUR for the same period in the prior year.

2016 Guidance
The company’s outlook for fiscal year 2016 remains within our previous guidance range, which was that management expects to report consolidated revenue between 115,000 - 120,000 kEUR; Adjusted EBITDA between 7,000 - 9,000 kEUR; and an increase of deferred revenue generated from annual licenses and maintenance by between 3,000 - 4,000 kEUR from 13,136 kEUR as of
Non-IFRS Measures
Materialise uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental financial measures of its financial performance. EBITDA is calculated as net profit plus income taxes, financial expenses (less financial income), shares of loss in a joint venture and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by adding non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and non-recurring IPO related expenses to EBITDA. Management believes these non-IFRS measures to be important measures as they exclude the effects of items which primarily reflect the impact of long-term investment and financing decisions, rather than the performance of the company's day-to-day operations. As compared to net profit, these measures are limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the company's business, or the charges associated with impairments. Management evaluates such items through other financial measures such as capital expenditures and cash flow provided by operating activities. The company believes that these measurements are useful to measure a company's ability to grow or as a valuation measurement. The company's calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net profit or any other performance measure derived in accordance with IFRS. The company's presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
