President Sanjeev Sahni’s sale of 26,190 shares was executed automatically under a Rule 10b5-1 plan and explicitly tied to tax withholding obligations from RSU vesting. Also important to note: Sahni still retains a meaningful equity stake valued at roughly $4 million, meaning he maintains alignment with shareholders. Additionally, Xometry’s stock has comfortably outperformed the broader market, rising well above the S&P 500’s roughly 18% gain over the past year thanks in part to accelerating marketplace scale and improving profitability.

Xometry posted record third-quarter revenue of $180.7 million, up 28% year over year, driven by 31% growth in marketplace revenue. Gross margin expanded to 35.7%, while adjusted EBITDA improved by $6.8 million year over year to $6.1 million, reflecting stronger operating leverage as enterprise demand scales. Finally, the company ended the quarter with $225 million in cash and marketable securities and raised full-year guidance in a sign of confidence in sustained growth and margin expansion.

Ultimately, it’s important to remember this was a planned, non-discretionary liquidity event following strong stock performance. The longer-term story continues to hinge on Xometry’s ability to scale its marketplace efficiently, deepen enterprise relationships, and convert revenue growth into durable profitability.
