Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 12, 2024, 3D Systems Corporation (the “Company”) and 3D Systems, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“3D US”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “U.S. Purchase Agreement”) with Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, Inc. (the “U.S. Buyer”), and 3D Systems Korea, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“3D Korea,” together with the Company and 3D US, the “Sellers”) entered into a Business Transfer Agreement (the “Korean Purchase Agreement,” together with the U.S. Purchase Agreement, the “Purchase Agreements”) with Hexagon Metrology Korea LLC (the “Korean Buyer,” together with the U.S. Buyer, the “Buyers”), pursuant to which the Buyers agreed to purchase from the Sellers, and the Sellers agreed to sell to the Buyers (the “Transaction”), substantially all of the assets related to the Sellers’ Geomagic software business (the “Acquired Assets”), for an aggregate cash purchase price of $123.0 million, subject to customary closing conditions and adjustments.

The Purchase Agreements contain customary representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnification obligations of the Sellers and the Buyers.

Completion of the Transaction (the “Closing”) is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2025. The Closing is contingent upon the satisfaction of customary closing conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreements, including the accuracy of each party’s representations and warranties (subject to certain exceptions), regulatory approval from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, the Korean Fair Trade Commission and the Turkish Competition Authority, the performance in all material respects by each of the parties of its covenants and agreements, and the simultaneous closing of both Purchase Agreements. The Closing is not subject to a financing condition. The U.S. Purchase Agreement also includes customary termination provisions, including if the Closing of the Transaction has not occurred on or before May 31, 2025.

At the Closing, the Sellers and the Buyers will enter into a transition services agreement, pursuant to which the Sellers and certain of their affiliates will provide certain information technology, accounting, human resources, marketing, operations, facilities and other customary services to support the Buyers in the ongoing operation of the Acquired Assets. At the Closing, certain Sellers and Buyers will also enter into a software licensing agreement.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the U.S. Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference, and the Korean Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.2 and is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.

The above description of the Purchase Agreements has been included to provide information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreements. It is not intended to provide any other information about the Company, 3D US, 3D Korea, the Buyers or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The Purchase Agreements contain representations and warranties of each party thereto that were made solely for the benefit of the other parties. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules that the parties have exchanged in connection with the signing of each of the Purchase Agreements. The disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Purchase Agreements. In addition, such representations and warranties may apply a contractual standard of materiality that is different from that generally applicable to stockholders. The representations and warranties were made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Purchase Agreements and should not be relied upon as a disclosure of factual information relating to the parties thereto.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this Current Report on Form 8-K that are not statements of historical or current facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from historical results or from any future results or projections expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements, including the expected

timing of completion of the Transaction. In many cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terms such as “believes,” “belief,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “estimates,” “intends,” “anticipates” or “plans” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements are based upon management’s beliefs, assumptions, and current expectations and may include comments as to the Company’s beliefs and expectations as to future events and trends affecting its business and are necessarily subject to uncertainties, many of which are outside the control of the Company. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected or predicted in forward-looking statements include failure to receive regulatory approvals and failure to comply with regulatory requirements. Other factors described under the headings “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the Company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as well as other factors, could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected or predicted in forward-looking statements. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are not, and should not be relied upon as a guarantee of future performance or results, nor will they necessarily prove to be accurate indications of the times at which such performance or results will be achieved. The forward-looking statements included are made only as of the date of the statement. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements made by management or on its behalf, whether as a result of future developments, subsequent events, or circumstances or otherwise, except as required by law.
