Carbon Key Facts

• Carbon has established strategic partnerships with industry leaders and global brands, such as Ford, BMW, and Johnson & Johnson. These partnerships involve co-development projects, joint ventures, and licensing agreements that validate Carbon's technology and expand its market reach.
• As a leader in digital manufacturing, Carbon has captured a significant share of the 3D printing market, particularly in sectors requiring high-performance materials and advanced manufacturing capabilities.
• Carbon continues to invest in research and development to advance its DLS technology and expand the range of materials compatible with its platform. This includes developing new resins with enhanced properties, improving printing speeds, and integrating new functionalities into its software and hardware solutions.

• The digital manufacturing space is increasingly competitive, with established players and new entrants investing in similar technologies. Competitors may offer alternative 3D printing solutions, enhanced materials, or more cost-effective manufacturing processes that could challenge Carbon's market position and pricing power.
• As Carbon expands its footprint in regulated industries such as healthcare and aerospace, it faces increased scrutiny and compliance requirements. Any failure to comply with industry regulations, quality standards, or data security protocols could lead to legal liabilities, reputational damage, and loss of customer trust.
• While Carbon's CLIP technology offers advantages in speed and quality over traditional manufacturing methods, it also faces risks. Any disruption in the development or scaling of its technology could impact Carbon's ability to meet customer expectations and compete effectively in the market.
