3D Systems Earns 28 Cents Per Share; Announces Two-for-One Stock Split

ROCK HILL, S.C., April 28, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 3D Systems Corporation (Nasdaq:TDSC) announced today that it earned 28 cents per share, fully diluted, for the first quarter of 2011 on a 51% revenue increase and a 62% gross profit improvement compared to the first quarter of 2010.

"We are pleased with our continued strong revenue growth and gross profit margin expansion from all of our products and services," said Abe Reichental, 3D Systems' President and Chief Executive Officer.

The company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a two-for-one split of the company's common stock. On May 18, 2011, each stockholder of record at the close of business on May 9, 2011 will receive one additional share for every outstanding share held on the record date. Trading is expected to begin on a split-adjusted basis on May 19, 2011. The company believes that the stock split could increase trading liquidity and attract a broader investor base.

The table below summarizes the company's key first quarter financial results.
