    31 July 2017 QUARTERLY REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDING 30 JUNE 2017 The directors of 333D Ltd (ASX:T3D or Company) provide the following commentary in relation to the Company’s operations for the last quarter ended June 30, 2017. The Company released to the ASX a market update on July 10th and a corporate presentation on July 19th. Both documents gave a detailed analysis into business operations over the last twelve months and provided insight into the Company’s strategy for the future. Summary of Cash Position Put simply the Company’s cash outflows were substantially greater than cash receipts and that trajectory could not continue. Vast resources were spent creating and marketing our Australian designed and built 3d printers that were tailored for the education sector. We received a great deal of interest from schools and positive feedback from teachers, however the price point was far in excess of what they were prepared to pay. We completely understand the cost pressures schools face and the ever-expanding array of products and devices they require that compete for relatively small financial budgets. Consequently, the Board reviewed all operations and chose to cease manufacturing ourschool 3d printers. With this decision, and other cost saving initiatives, the Company expects cash outlays to reduce by $100,000 per month.

    On Monday July 17th, the Company announced a private placement which raised $525,000 from sophisticated investors. Shares were allotted on July 21st. The capital raising, coupled with expected cash refunds for participation in R&D and export development grant programs in September and October, provides the Company with working capital and allows us to allocate resources to the two divisions we believe will drive revenue: 3d printing as a service and 3d digital capture. 3D on Demand The cash flow statement clearly shows that the Company expended substantial amounts of cash in employee costs and capital equipment (ie: 3d printers) in the last 12 months.

    We have built the broadest 3d printing-as-a-service offering in Australia, enabling us to meet the diverse needs of customers seeking to 3d print in metal, nylon, resin, sandstone and full range of plastics. We are receiving substantial in-bound consumer requests for our 3d on demand service, and our main priority is to reach new customers and convert existing customers into repeat clients. Our real-time online quoting tool, which went live on July 10th, has simplified the ordering process by providing customers with immediate printing quotes 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The cost of our 3d printing equipment is more than $1.5 million and hasn’t generated the return we expected. We need to do more to acquire customers.
    The following key factors have been communicated to us by our clients: 1. We are competitively priced 2. Our service turnaround is quick 3. The quality of our prints is exceptional 4. Our in-house design capability is an advantage Based on this customer input, we know our 3d on demand product ticks all the marketability boxes. The aim now is building greater market awareness that will lead to customer acquisition and service excellence that will convert those new customers into repeat business.

    3D Digital Capture Our 3d digital capture business has been buoyed by strong market responses at each of our Oz Comic Con and Supernova Pop Culture Expo activations.

    We produced highly detailed figurines that consistently exceeded the expectations of our customers. Part of our R&D efforts focus on making the process more efficient and reducing the cost of production in order to drive down retail price. Even though we are the cheapest in the market, the feedback we have received on the price of the figurines is that they are relatively expensive for most consumers. Leaving activation costs aside, these costs mainly relate to inputs that go into producing the figurine: 1) the creation of the data file, which requires rendering by a 3d artist to ‘iron out all the kinks,’ and 2) the consumables that go into the printing of the figurine, which are expensive and include powder, binders and glue.

    We are working on a process to reduce the cost of each of these aspects by substantially automating the data meshing process needed for file creation and by using different methods to build the figurines. If we have a successful outcome, the best-case scenario will reduce the complete cost to manufacture by 70% per unit from current cost. By reducing the cost to manufacture we can ultimately reduce the retail price and in doing so dramatically increase the size of the addressable market.

    We currently have the best quality product on the market with the lowest retail price.

    Our 23cm single person figurine retails for $249, whilst at Officeworks, a smaller size 22cm figurine retails for $399. What we have identified is a key perception: everyone loves the product, so the market is huge, however the high price is a deterrence to the majority – and that is our opportunity. Our substantial investment in R&D is to reengineer the figurine creation process so we can price the product so its accessible and affordable to all without compromising our exceptional production quality. AFL Launch

    The AFL player figurines are due to hit the market, with Essendon Captain, Dyson Heppell, being the inaugural figurine to be launched. As this is a new product in a new category, all stakeholders are keen to observe consumer take up of the 3d printed figurines. Product will be sold both online and in-store with prices ranging from $79 to $199 depending on size. The marketing of the product will include an email marketing campaign by Essendon and The AFL Store that will reach more than 120,000 unique members and supporters.

    We are endeavouring to undertake other forms of marketing and promotion that includes print, TV and social media. About 333D Limited 333D Limited (ASX: T3D) has been established with a clear strategy to become Australia’s leading integrated multi-platform 3D technology company.
