Standard BioTools Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

 

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., May 06, 2025 -- Standard BioTools Inc. (NASDAQ: LAB) (the “Company” or "Standard BioTools") today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Recent Highlights:

First quarter 2025 revenue of $40.8 million
45% reduction in operating loss and 29% improvement in adjusted EBITDA year-over-year
Operationalized $10 million more in annual run rate cost reductions, totaling $90 million since merger
Strong balance sheet with $261 million in cash & cash equivalents and no material debt as of March 31, 2025

 

“Standard BioTools delivered a solid first quarter in line with our expectations, reflecting focused execution in a challenging Life Sciences macro backdrop,” said Michael Egholm, PhD, President and Chief Executive Officer of Standard BioTools. "We remain grounded and disciplined, driving a 29% year-over-year improvement in adjusted EBITDA through Standard BioTools Business System (SBS). We believe our unique model, world class operational platform and healthy capital position will allow us to continue to take advantage of the current environment and deliver shareholder value over time.”

Dr. Egholm added, "On a product level, I am particularly excited by our strategic foothold in proteomics and the momentum building for SomaScan and SOMAmers. The advantages and performance over legacy antibody-based approaches is now well-documented, most recently at the AACR Annual Meeting and through a growing list of publications. As population-based proteomics studies continue to favor our technology, the upcoming launch of our Illumina partnered NGS-based product will only further expand access. Together we expect this momentum to accelerate as we help usher in an exciting new era of proteomic discovery."

First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Revenue was $40.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, down 10% year-over-year:
o
Consumables revenue was $14.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, down 16% year-over-year. Consumables revenue declined due to lower volume.
o
Instruments revenue was $7.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, up 24% year-over-year. Instrument revenue was driven by strong growth in our Hyperion XTi spatial proteomics platform.
o
Services revenue, which includes both Lab Services and Field Services, was $17.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, down 16% year over year. Lab Services revenue was down 19% due to a tough comparable to prior-year levels that benefited from elevated backlog as well as project timing.
Gross margins in the first quarter of 2025 were 48.4%, versus 53.1% in the first quarter of 2024; and non-GAAP gross margins, which exclude depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation, were 53.2% in the first quarter of 2025 versus 56.2% in the first quarter of 2024. Gross margins were impacted by lower volume, price realization and product mix, partially offset by incremental improvements from SBS.
Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2025 were $52.7 million, a decrease of $31.7 million, or down 38%, compared to the first quarter of 2024; and non-GAAP operating expenses, which exclude merger-related costs, stock-based compensation, and restructuring charges, were $38.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of $10.7 million, or down 22%, compared to the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in operating expenses is a result of the realization of merger cost synergies and continued productivity gains from SBS.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2025 was $26.0 million, compared to a net loss of $32.2 million in the first quarter of 2024, representing an improvement of $6.2 million or 19%, while adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2025 was a loss of $16.9 million, versus an adjusted EBITDA loss of $23.7 million in the first quarter of 2024, an improvement of $6.8 million, or 29%.

 

Full Year 2025 Revenue Outlook

 

For fiscal year 2025, the Company continues to expect revenue in the range of $165 million to $175 million. This outlook assumes a high single-digit millions decline in our Americas academic revenue due to anticipated NIH funding pressures, no expected effect from U.S. export controls and limited impact from tariffs.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Standard BioTools has presented certain financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP and on a non-GAAP basis. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, and adjusted EBITDA. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as a measure of operating performance because the non-GAAP financial measures do not include the impact of items that management does not consider indicative of the Company’s core operating performance. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, taken in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provide useful information for both management and investors by excluding certain non-cash and other expenses

 


 

that are not indicative of the Company’s core operating results. Management uses non-GAAP measures to compare the Company’s performance relative to forecasts and strategic plans and to benchmark the Company’s performance externally against competitors. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used to supplement an understanding of the Company’s operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Standard BioTools encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliations between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP operating results are presented in the accompanying tables of this release.
