Xometry, a Maryland-based<\/span> service that connects companies with manufacturers with excess production capacity around the world, filed an S-1 form<\/a> with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission announcing its intent to become a public company.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

As the global supply chain tightened during the pandemic in 2020, a company that helped find excess manufacturing capacity was likely in high demand. CEO and co-founder Randy Altschuler described his company to TechCrunch this way last September upon the announcement of a $75 million Series E investment<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve created a marketplace using artificial intelligence to power it, and provide an e-commerce experience for buyers of custom manufacturing and for suppliers to deliver that manufacturing,\u201d Altschuler said at the time. Xometry raised nearly $200 million while private, per Crunchbase data<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With Xometry, companies looking to build custom parts now have the ability to do so in a digital way. Rather than working the phones or starting an email chain, they can go into the Xometery marketplace, define parameters for their project and find a qualified manufacturer who can handle the job at the best price.<\/p>\n

As of last September, the company had built relationships with 5,000 manufacturers around the world and had 30,000 customers using the platform.<\/p>\n

At the time of that funding round, perhaps it wasn\u2019t a coincidence that the company\u2019s lead investor was T. Rowe Price. When an institutional investor is involved in a late-stage round, it\u2019s usually a sign that the company is ready to start thinking about an IPO. Altschuler said it was definitely something the company was considering and had brought on a CFO, too, another sign that a company is ready to take that next step.<\/p>\n

So what do Xometry\u2019s financials look like as it heads to the public markets? We took a look at the S-1 to find out.<\/p>\n

The numbers<\/h2>\n

Xometry makes money in two ways. The first comes from one part of its marketplace, with the company generating \u201csubstantially all of [its] revenue\u201d from charging \u201cbuyers on its platform.\u201d The other way that Xometry engenders top line is seller-related services, including financial work. The company notes that seller-generated revenues were just 5% of its 2020 total, though it does expect that figure to rise.<\/p>\n
