According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of purchasers of 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD) common shares between October 29, 2013 and October 22, 2014, that the defendants violated Federal Securities Laws. More specifically, the plaintiff claims that between October 29, 2013 and October 22, 2014 Defendants allegedly drove up 3D Systems Corporation's stock price by issuing allegedly false and misleading statements concerning 3D Systems Corporation's ability to increase the capacity of its metal printing business, the demand for its consumer products, the value of multiple companies it was acquiring, and the expected earnings.

On October 22, 2014, 3D Systems Corporation announced its preliminary third quarter 2014 results. Among other things, 3D Systems Corporation said that factoring in its third quarter revenue shortfall and outlook for the remainder of the year, its management trimmed its previous guidance for the full year 2014 and that its management now expects revenue in the range of $650 million to $690 million, and GAAP earnings per share of $0.18 to $0.28 and non-GAAP earnings per share in the range of $0.70 to $0.80.
