Shares of 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE: DDD) dropped as much as 29.7% on Wednesday after reporting third-quarter earnings.

At 1:50 p.m. EDT, shares were still down 24.1% on the day and showed no signs of picking up.
Revenue fell 2.2%, to $152.9 million in the quarter, and net loss expanded from $21.4 million to $37.7 million, or $0.34 per share. Adjusted for one-time items, the loss was $0.20, but even that was a shock because analysts were expecting $0.12 in earnings per share on $162.9 million in revenue.
