BioLife Solutions, Inc. filed its annual report describing a focused life sciences business supplying bioproduction tools for the cell and gene therapy industry. The company develops and manufactures biopreservation media, human platelet lysate, closed-system containers, and automated thawing and cell-processing devices used across CGT workflows.
BioLife has reshaped its portfolio through several divestitures of freezer, cold-chain logistics, and shipping businesses, while acquiring the remaining 90% of PanTHERA CryoSolutions to add next‑generation cryopreservation technology. Revenue is concentrated in the United States, and a small number of customers and CryoStor products drive a large share of sales.
The report highlights extensive risk factors, including heavy competition, reliance on key customers and suppliers, potential product defects, evolving global regulations, cybersecurity and AI-related risks, and the possibility of goodwill and intangible asset impairments. Management also emphasizes its patent portfolio, cGMP manufacturing, quality systems, and efforts to retain specialized talent to support growth.
BioLife Solutions reported strong growth for 2025, driven by its cell processing tools for the CGT market. Revenue from continuing operations reached $96.2 million, up 29% from $74.6 million in 2024. Fourth quarter revenue was $24.8 million, a 20% increase from $20.7 million.
GAAP gross margin for 2025 was 65%, down from 67%, while non-GAAP adjusted gross margin was 66% versus 69% in 2024. The company posted a 2025 GAAP net loss from continuing operations of $12.1 million, but delivered non-GAAP adjusted net income of $6.3 million and adjusted EBITDA of $25.0 million, or 26% of revenue, up from $13.3 million, or 18%.
In October 2025, BioLife completed the sale of its evo subsidiary for $25.5 million in cash and ended the year with $120.2 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. For 2026, it guides to revenue of $112.5–$115.0 million, implying 17%–20% growth, with gross margins in the mid‑60% range, full‑year GAAP net income, and continued expansion of adjusted EBITDA margin.
