Velo3D estimates Q3 2026 revenue at about $19.5M–$20.5M
Velo3D plans to report final third-quarter results during the week of November 9, 2026, after completing its quarter-end close.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Velo3D, Inc. (VELO) estimated preliminary, unaudited third-quarter 2026 revenue of approximately $19.5 million to $20.5 million, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 43% to 51% compared with revenue of $13.6 million in third-quarter 2025. The estimate is based on management’s information available October 15, 2026, and remains subject to completion of quarter-end closing procedures, final adjustments and other developments; actual results could differ materially.
Velo3D plans to report final third-quarter results during the week of November 9, 2026. Its independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed or performed procedures on the preliminary revenue information.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.
Positive
- Moderate pointQ3 2026 revenue growth: approximately 43% to 51% year over year.
Negative

Forward-Looking Statements:
This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this press release are forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as "expect", "estimate", "project", "budget", "forecast", "anticipate", "intend", "plan", "may", "will", "could", "should", "believes", "predicts", "potential", "continue", and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company's preliminary estimates of revenue for the third quarter of 2026 and the expected timing of the release of its final financial results for that quarter. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the "FY 2025 10-K") and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q ("Quarterly Reports") and the other documents filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Many of these factors are outside the Company's control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the completion of the Company's quarter-end financial closing procedures, final adjustments and the identification of adjustments arising from those procedures, the discovery of new or additional information affecting accounting estimates or revenue recognition, management’s judgments underlying the preliminary estimates, subsequent events, and the preparation and review of the Company’s financial statements for the quarter; (2) the inability of the Company to execute its business plan, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the Company's cash/liquidity position, the ability of the Company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its key employees; (3) the Company's ability to continue as a going concern; (4) the Company's ability to service and comply with its indebtedness; (5) the Company's ability to raise additional capital in the near-term; (6) the possibility that the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (7) the risk that future sales of common stock, including sales under the Company's at-the-market offering program, will dilute existing stockholders and may adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock; (8) changes in the applicable laws and regulations; (9) risks related to the Company's exposure to government and defense contracts, including potential delays or reductions in government funding, government shutdowns, changes in defense procurement priorities or spending levels, and the timing and uncertainty of government contract awards and modifications; (10) the risk that the Company's backlog may not convert into revenue on the timelines the Company expects, or at all; (11) the risk that the Company may not achieve its financial guidance for fiscal year 2026 and that actual results may differ materially from, or that the Company may revise, such guidance; and (12) other risks and uncertainties described in the FY 2025 10-K and the Quarterly Reports, including those under "Risk Factors" therein, and in the Company's other filings with the SEC, which are available on
sec.gov. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive and cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, including projections, which speak only as of the date of this press release. The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by applicable law.
