Wall Street was looking for non-GAAP earnings of a penny per share on revenue of $159.6 million.

In a statement, CEO Vyomesh Joshi said revenue growth was driven by printers, on demand manufacturing, health care, and software.

"While we still have work to do, we believe our investments in go-to-market, process improvements and better execution worldwide are starting to show returns," Joshi said.

"We believe 2018 is a corner turn year in our multi-year turnaround and transformation process. We are focused on execution, operational efficiency and bringing our new solutions to market to drive long-term growth and profitability."

Shares of 3D Systems dropped more than 2 percent in after market trading.
