Once again we take a look at the valuations of the major 3D printing companies over the past week.
Publicly traded companies are required to post their financial reports, as well as appear on stock markets. From there we can calculate the total value of their company by multiplying the current stock price by the number of outstanding shares. This number is the market capitalization, and represents the current valuation of the company.
It’s a great number of compare companies, as the market capitalization can be leveraged to provide more capabilities for the company. Shares could, for example, be used as collateral for a loan. That and similar maneuvers could generate cash with which the company might undertake new projects.
In other words, “market cap”, as it is known, is quite important.
You might think it’s not important to monitor these companies each week, as their value is realized only when stocks are sold. However, events happen to companies occasionally that cause their value to rise and fall, and this weekly post is where we track such things.
Note that our list here does not include all major 3D print companies. Not all 3D print companies are publicly traded, and thus we cannot officially know their true size, such as EOS. Others, like HP or Siemens, have very large 3D printing divisions, but are part a much larger enterprises and we cannot know the true size of their 3D printing activities.
Let’s take a look at the 3D printing companies on this week’s list.

This week saw flat or declining indices on the major Western markets, but extremely positive sentiment on Chinese markets. This was reflected in this week’s results.
In China, the SSE rose well over one percent, and the two Chinese companies on the leaderboard rose along with that. Farsoon leapt skyward an incredible 29%, while Bright Laser rose “only” ten percent.
Farsoon’s rise might be due to a market report that highlighted a 45% rise in year-over-year revenue, which is very substantial. This could have combined with another report suggesting that Farsoon will be added to a list of stocks that allow short selling and margin trading, which obviously would attract more investors.
Meanwhile, Bright Laser also reported huge gains over the past year, with more than a 40% increase in revenue. Their profit increased over 100%. This, combined with their recent headway in the aerospace sector, is a recipe for valuation jumps.
Xometry fell sharply, some 29%. This could be due to conservative forecasts for 2026, even though the company reported a 30% gain in revenue. The company also shifted around some executives, and an RBC note suggested a lower price target. All of this combined into diminished interest in the company, reflected in the valuation.
It’s not clear why Stratasys fell ten percent, but it might simply be that the company hasn’t had a blockbuster announcement in a while. Investors are also awaiting their latest financials, which are due next week.
6K Additive rose twelve percent, perhaps due to an announcement of a major deal. However, their latest financials showed a very good fourth quarter, and evidently, investors took that as a signal that more may be forthcoming in 2026.
Titomic rose eight percent, likely due to lagging notice of an announcement about a deal with NASA to provide cold spray tech testing and evaluation. This could lead to additional business in the future.
Sygnis, which has been riding high in recent months due to a shift towards 3D-printed drone production, fell 30% this week. This company has a smaller valuation and is therefore much more volatile than some of the larger companies. Thus, when any signals appear, big shifts happen. However, there were no official announcements to trigger this drop, something that happens sometimes in smaller companies.
Upcoming Changes
We’ve heard very little about companies intending to become publicly traded recently. This is due to the ongoing lack of investor interest in the technology. The technology’s reputation has suffered immensely in the investment community because of multiple large-scale investment failures in the past few years.
One change we are expecting is the addition of Creality, which recently filed documents to trade on the Hong Kong exchange.
If you are aware of any other publicly-traded 3D print companies that should be on our leaderboard, please let us know!
Others In The Industry
While we’ve been following the public companies, don’t forget there are a number of private companies that don’t appear on any stock exchange. These privately-held companies likely have significant value, it’s just that we can’t know exactly what it is at any moment. The suspected bigger companies include EOS, Carbon and Formlabs.
Perhaps someday some of them will appear on our major players list.
Related Companies
Finally, there are a number of companies that are deeply engaged in the 3D print industry, but that activity is only a small slice of their operations. Thus it’s not fair to place them on the lists above because we don’t really know where their true 3D print activities lie.
