Fate Therapeutic Financials
Fate Therapeutic (FATE) reported $6.6M in revenue for fiscal year 2025, down 51.2% from the prior fiscal year. This page shows its income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios. View 15 years of annual fundamentals and quarterly data, with year-over-year growth rates and compound annual growth rates (CAGR). All figures are derived from SEC filings (10-K and 10-Q reports).
Fate Therapeutics now looks like a balance-sheet-funded R&D business, with commercial revenue too small to absorb its cost base.
Between FY2023 and FY2025, revenue fell about89.5% while operating cash burn improved only about19.8% ; that mismatch shows losses are driven more by deliberate research commitments than by current sales volume. The company has effectively become a balance-sheet-funded R&D engine, where expense reductions matter more to cash preservation than commercial activity.

Fate Therapeutic (FATE) scores 46 out of 100 on our Financial Health Score, indicating moderate standing within its emerging companies peer group. The score is a 0-100 composite of six dimensions (Cash Runway, Dilution, R&D Intensity, Revenue Progress, Burn Trend, Balance Sheet), each ranked as a percentile relative to companies in the same scoring family (banks against banks, REITs against REITs, and so on) rather than across all industries. It rates the quality of the business, not whether the stock is fairly priced, and is not financial advice. Learn more in our complete guide to financial health indicators.
