Life Sciences Services
Our strategy for the Life Sciences Services segment is developed around three pillars that serve as the foundation for the Company’s fully integrated temperature-controlled supply chain solutions: our Cryoportal® digital logistics management platform, our Chain of Compliance® and quality principles, and our Global Supply Chain Center Network.
The Cryoportal Digital Logistics Management Platform. This platform serves as the digital ‘nerve center’ for the Company’s fully integrated temperature-controlled supply chain solutions. From the collection of patient- or donor-derived starting material through biostorage, transport, distribution, and final delivery, Cryoport’s solutions work together to reduce risks and complexity, improve visibility, and enhance reliability for clients operating in highly regulated environments. The Cryoportal combines advanced temperature-controlled logistics and informatics by integrating with clients, partners, and vendor systems through application programming interfaces (APIs), enabling seamless data exchange and consistent execution across global temperature-controlled supply chains.
As the scope and importance of digital capabilities expanded, Cryoport established its Enterprise Technology Group (ETG) in 2024 to unify its digital platforms, monitoring, intelligent packaging, Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled monitoring, automation, and data analytics into a single, cohesive digital framework and ecosystem. This evolution aligns with Cryoport’s technology-led growth initiatives, including global infrastructure expansion and the introduction of new advanced solutions and platforms such as IntegriCell®, CryoVerse, Bioservices and our Global Supply Chain Network.
Cryoport continues to expand the foundations for its fully integrated solutions through ongoing enhancements to the Cryoportal, broader deployment of its Smartpak® Condition Monitoring System and Tec4med IoT-based monitoring solutions, and deeper integration of quality systems such as Chain of Compliance. We plan to further support these capabilities through the development and application of artificial intelligence (“AI”) and advanced analytics to aggregated platform data, enabling the Company to manage and anticipate network risks, improve operational performance, and support predictive, data-driven decision-making across the temperature-controlled supply chain.
By embedding digitalization, data intelligence, and automation across its solutions, Cryoport aims to continue to enhance its scalability, further strengthen its regulatory integrity, and support the continued growth and commercialization of the CGT market as these lifesaving cures are developed.
Chain of Compliance and Quality. Our Chain of Compliance framework is integrated throughout our services to ensure that critical biological materials are handled, stored, and transported in full accordance with applicable regulatory, quality, and procedural requirements throughout the entire temperature-controlled supply chain. It extends beyond traditional chain-of-custody and chain-of-condition by embedding more compliance, documentation, and process control into every physical and digital touchpoint including storage and distribution equipment management.

Through the integration of validated temperature-controlled supply chain systems, standardized operating processes and procedures, continuous condition monitoring, chain-of-custody tracking, chain-of-condition monitoring and real-time informatics, our Chain of Compliance provides end-to-end visibility and traceability of every component and every process from initial material collection through final delivery to points of care. This approach supports our adherence to ISO 21973:2020, ISO 9001:2015, global regulatory standards, including Good Manufacturing Practice (“GMP”), and applicable international transport and quality requirements.
Enabled by the Cryoportal and supported by highly trained staff, the Chain of Compliance captures and aggregates environmental, shipping, biostorage, and handling data into a unified record that supports audit readiness, deviation management, and regulatory reporting. By proactively managing risk and ensuring consistent execution across complex, global supply chains, the Chain of Compliance helps protect biological material integrity, reduce variability, and support reliable patient treatment outcomes.
All our operations are also certified to ISO 9001:2015 for quality management systems, ISO 13485:2016 for medical devices, where applicable, and ISO 21973:2020 for the transportation of cells for therapeutic use. These certifications support standardized processes across our Global Supply Chain Center Network demonstrating our commitment to risk management, traceability, and continuous improvement. In addition, our quality framework incorporates Good Distribution Practice (“GDP”) and GMP principles, validated equipment and processes, supplier qualification, and ongoing training and auditing programs. Together with the Chain of Compliance framework, these standards are intended to ensure the integrity, safety, and compliance of biological materials throughout storage, handling, and transportation.
Global Supply Chain Center Network. We operate a Global Supply Chain Center Network through which we provide our BioLogistics, BioStorage, BioServices, and Cryopreservation services, supporting the end-to-end requirements of the life sciences industry. This integrated network is purpose-built to manage the complexity, regulatory requirements, and time- and temperature-sensitive nature of cell and gene therapies, regenerative medicines, and other biological materials.
Our global infrastructure includes strategically located Global Supply Chain Centers across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC regions. These facilities are further complemented by a qualified partner network of transportation providers that extend our reach while operating under Cryoport’s qualification, monitoring, and compliance standards. These transportation partners include integrators, life sciences specialty couriers, and local service providers, enabling reliable coverage across major clinical, commercial, and research markets worldwide.
On this foundation, we provide the following core solutions in the Life Sciences Services segment:
BioLogistics Solutions. Our BioLogistics solutions provide highly specific, temperature-controlled transportation services for CGT and other critical biological materials. These services are designed to meet the stringent requirements of advanced biologics, where deviations in temperature and other variables, shock, handling, or timing can compromise product integrity and patient outcomes. Our BioLogistics solutions are ISO 21973:2020 certified—the first standard to specifically address, in detail, the requirements for the CGT supply chain, with a focus on transportation, and that recognizes CGT products are significantly more fragile and valuable than most small molecule and biological therapies.
Through purpose-built Cryoport Express® and Cryoport Elite® shipping systems, continuous condition monitoring and tracking, customs and trade compliance support, integrated temperature-controlled logistics management and consulting services, we deliver reliable global temperature-controlled transport while maintaining full visibility, intervention capability, and compliance throughout transit.

Competition
We believe Cryoport is unique in its services and product offerings. Collectively, Cryoport’s specialized expertise in providing advanced temperature-controlled supply chain solutions for the Life Sciences including, but not limited to, proprietary technologies, regulatory expertise, global infrastructure, embedded customer relationships, and a data-driven operating model create substantial competitive advantages. Our deep proficiency in supporting the Life Sciences with an emphasis on the CGT Market for over 12 years, operational knowledge, compliance track record, and extended customer validation cycles required to compete at scale reinforce Cryoport’s durable competitive advantage in the Life Sciences and especially the rapidly growing CGT market. However, we do have competition in various segments of our business from companies that offer services and/or products that could be considered competitive to certain components or elements of our platform of temperature-controlled supply chain solutions for the Life Sciences. Life Sciences Services competition is primarily with specialty couriers, who fall into the category of coopetition and include companies such as World Courier (a Cencora company), UPS Healthcare, Quick (a Kuehne+Nagel company), and Biocair. In addition, life science companies may develop their own in-house temperature-controlled supply chain solutions, systems, and/or procedures to cover their specific needs. Competition for our cryopreservation services in particular includes companies such as the American Red Cross and Gift of Life Biologics. Life Sciences Products competition is with companies offering cryogenic systems products such as Azenta Life Sciences, Phase 2, and IC Biomedical. Cryoport is a leader in both its Life Sciences Services and Life Sciences Products reporting segments.

Manufacturing and Raw Materials
Manufacturing - We source components for our products from multiple suppliers, including those that manufacture to our engineering specifications, using, in part, proprietary technology and knowledge to mitigate supply chain risks. We also use “off-the-shelf” products, which we may modify to meet our requirements. For some components, there are relatively few alternate sources of supply and the establishment of additional or replacement suppliers may or may not be accomplished immediately. When this occurs, we endeavor to mitigate risk by locating an alternative qualified supplier and, as appropriate, increasing our inventory level.
Our vendor/partner relationships allow us to concentrate on further advancing and expanding our platform of systems, products, and solutions for the life sciences to meet the growing and varied demands for validated temperature-controlled solutions in the life sciences industry. We endeavor to keep our supply structure up to date and agile as it provides us the opportunity to rapidly scale to support our client’s commercialization, systems, products, and solutions requirements; however, we are ever mindful of the work we must do to improve our current sourcing and to continue to mitigate risks therein.
Raw Materials - Various raw materials are used in the manufacture of our products and in the development of our technologies. Most raw materials are generally available from several alternate distributors and/or manufacturers. Where we have experienced significant difficulty in obtaining these raw materials, we have established alternative global sources or work with existing suppliers to overcome any deficiencies.
Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks, and Proprietary Rights
To remain competitive, we develop and maintain protection on the proprietary aspects of our platform of technologies. We rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secret laws and confidentiality agreements to protect our intellectual property rights.
We file patent applications to protect innovations arising from our research, development and design. As of December 31, 2025, we owned approximately 74 issued patents and have more than 110 pending patent applications throughout the world. Our patents generally protect certain aspects of our products and related technology. We also own common law and registered trademarks in the U.S. and in certain foreign countries to protect the names of our company, certain products, and key service brands. We own certain copyrights relating to certain aspects of our systems, products and services.
Our success is influenced, in part, by our ability to continue to develop proprietary products and technologies. It is desirable to obtain patent coverage for these products and technologies; however, some are protected as trade secrets. We intend to file trademark and patent applications covering any newly developed products, methods and technologies. However, there can be no guarantee that any of our pending or future filed applications will be issued as patents or registered as trademarks. There can be no guarantee that the various patent and trademark governmental agencies from around the world or some third party will not initiate an interference proceeding involving any of our pending applications or issued patents. Finally, there can be no guarantee that our issued patents or future issued patents, if any, will provide adequate protection from competition.
Patents provide some degree of protection for our proprietary technology. However, the pursuit and assertion of patent rights involve complex legal and factual determinations and, therefore, are characterized by significant uncertainty. In addition, the laws governing patent issuance, and the scope of patent coverage continue to evolve. Moreover, the patent rights we possess or are pursuing generally cover our technologies to varying degrees. As a result, we cannot ensure that patents will issue from any of our patent applications, or that any of the issued patents will offer meaningful protection. In addition, our issued patents may be successfully challenged, invalidated, circumvented, or rendered unenforceable so that our patent rights may not create an effective barrier to competition. We must also pay maintenance fees at set intervals for our patents to not expire prematurely. The laws of some foreign countries may not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. There can be no assurance that any patents issued to us will provide a legal basis for establishing an exclusive market for our products or provide us with any competitive advantages, or that patents of others will not have an adverse effect on our ability to do business or to continue to use our technologies freely. As with all patents, we may be subject to third parties filing claims that our technologies or products infringe on their intellectual property. We cannot predict whether third parties will assert such claims against us or whether those claims will hurt our business. If we are forced to defend against such claims, regardless of their merit, we may face costly litigation and diversion of management’s attention and resources. As a result of any such disputes, we may have to develop, at a substantial cost, non-infringing technology or enter into licensing agreements. These agreements may be unavailable on terms acceptable to such third parties, or at all, which could seriously harm our business or financial condition.
11
Table of Contents
With respect to our trademarks, we file and pursue trademark registrations on words, symbols, logos, and other source identifiers that clients use to associate our products and services with us. Although our registered trademarks carry a presumption of validity, they can be challenged and possibly invalidated and as such, we cannot guarantee that any trademark registration is infallible.
We also rely on trade secret protection of our intellectual property. We attempt to protect trade secrets by entering into confidentiality agreements with employees, consultants and third parties, although, in the past, we have not always obtained such agreements. It is possible that these agreements may be breached, invalidated, or rendered unenforceable, and if so, our trade secrets could be disclosed to our competitors. Despite the measures we have taken to protect our intellectual property, parties to such agreements may breach confidentiality provisions in our contracts or infringe or misappropriate our patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and other proprietary rights. In addition, third parties may independently discover or invent competitive technologies, or reverse engineer our trade secrets or other technology. Therefore, the measures we are taking to protect our proprietary technology may not be adequate.
Government Regulation
Globally, Cryoport is subject to regulations in numerous country jurisdictions and international regulations relating to manufacturing, shipments, customs, import, export, safe working conditions, environmental protection, and disposal of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances. In addition, we must ensure compliance with economic sanctions and/or restrictions on individuals, corporations, or countries, and other government regulations affecting trade that may apply to our international cross border business activities.
The shipping of biologic products, biologic commodities, diagnostic specimens, infectious substances, and dangerous goods, whether via air or ground, falls under the jurisdictions of many country, state, federal, local and international agencies. The quality of the packaging that protects such commodities is critical in determining successful shipping conditions and to ensure a commodity will arrive at its destination in a satisfactory condition. Meeting stringent regulations such as Dangerous Goods Regulations, ISTA, and IATA, as applicable, Cryoport has demonstrated compliance and adhesion to these requirements. Many of the regulations for transporting dangerous goods in the United States are determined by international rules formulated under the auspices of the United Nations. Dangerous goods are typically one-time shipments and are not a part of our routine services. When called upon to ship dangerous goods, Cryoport follows strict and stringent guidelines. International Civil Aviation Organization (“ICAO”) is the United Nations organization that develops regulations (Technical Instructions) for the safe transport of dangerous goods by air. If shipment is by air, compliance with the rules established by the IATA is required. IATA is a trade association made up of airlines and air cargo couriers that publishes annual editions of the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations. These regulations interpret and add to the ICAO Technical Instructions to reflect industry practices. Additionally, the Centers for Disease Control (“CDC”) has regulations (published in the Code of Federal Regulations) for interstate shipping of specimens.
Our Cryoport Express® and ELITE™ Shippers meet Packing Instructions 602 and 650 and are certified for the shipment of Class 6.2 Dangerous Goods per the requirements of the ICAO Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air and IATA. Our present and planned future versions of the Cryoport SmartPak™ Condition Monitoring Systems are subject to regulation by the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”), Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”), FDA, IATA and possibly other agencies which may be difficult to determine on a global basis. Additionally, our Chain of Compliance™ processes comply fully with ISO 21973:2020 guidelines.
Storage of biological materials that are classified as drug products for human therapeutic use (either for investigational use or commercially approved) or materials used in the manufacture of drug products for human therapeutic use, is regulated by the FDA under Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations (“CFR”) part 210 & 211. Facilities must be compliant with current GMP regulations which are enforced by the FDA through registration and audit. When drug products are exported to other countries, biostorage upon receipt must meet relevant local regulations.
Our MVE Biological Solutions cryogenic stainless-steel freezers and aluminum dewars are certified to the Medical Device Directive (MDD) in the EU. MVE is compliant with current GMP regulations which are enforced by the FDA through registration and audit of compliance with 21 CFR Part 820 and GMP. This FDA registration and product listing is in addition to MVE’s existing ISO 13485:2016 certification.
Additionally, registrations for import are in place for various countries with these requirements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following risk factors could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These risk factors do not identify all of the risks that we face.
Risks Related to Our Business
As an increasingly global business, we are exposed to economic, political, and other risks in different countries which could materially reduce our sales, profitability or cash flows, or materially increase our liabilities.
Since we manufacture and sell our products worldwide, our business is subject to risks associated with doing business internationally. Our future results could be harmed by a variety of factors, including:
| ● | changes in foreign currency exchange rates, exchange controls and currency restrictions; |
| ● | changes in a specific country’s or region’s political, social or economic conditions; |
| ● | political, economic and social instability, including acts of war; |
| ● | outbreak of disease or illness in any of the countries in which we sell our products or in which we or our suppliers operate; |
| ● | tariffs, other trade protection measures, and import or export licensing requirements, including those imposed by the United States and the reciprocal or retaliatory measures taken by its trading partners; |
14
Table of Contents
| ● | potentially negative consequences from changes in U.S. and international tax laws; |
| ● | difficulty in staffing and managing geographically widespread operations; |
| ● | changes in customer spending due to the increased economic uncertainties and the disruption in the capital markets; |
| ● | requirements relating to withholding taxes on remittances and other payments by subsidiaries; |
| ● | restrictions on our ability to own or operate subsidiaries, make investments or acquire new businesses in these jurisdictions; |
| ● | restrictions on our ability to repatriate dividends from our foreign subsidiaries; |
| ● | difficulty in collecting international accounts receivable; |
| ● | difficulty in enforcement of contractual obligations under non-U.S. law; |
| ● | transportation delays or interruptions; and |
| ● | changes in regulatory requirements including as it relates to protection of our intellectual property. |
The functional currency for most of our foreign operations is the applicable local currency. As a result, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates affect the results of our operations and the value of our foreign assets and liabilities, which in turn may adversely affect results of operations and cash flows and the comparability of period-to-period results of operations. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates may also affect the relative prices at which we and foreign competitors sell products in the same market. Foreign governmental policies and actions regarding currency valuation could result in actions by the United States and other countries to offset the effects of such fluctuations. Given the unpredictability and volatility of foreign currency exchange rates, ongoing or unusual volatility may adversely impact our business and financial conditions.
We depend on the availability of certain component products used in our solutions; delays or increased costs in the procurement of components manufactured by third parties could adversely affect our business operations, financial performance and results of operations, and we may experience customer dissatisfaction and harm to our reputation.
If we fail to procure sufficient components used in our products from our third-party manufacturers, we may be unable to deliver our solutions to our customers on a timely basis, which could lead to customer dissatisfaction and could harm our reputation and ability to compete. We currently acquire various component parts for our solutions from various independent manufacturers, some of which are sole sourced. We would likely experience significant delays or cessation in producing some of these components if a labor strike, natural disaster, public health crisis, act of war or other supply disruption were to occur. If we are unable to procure a component from one of our manufacturers, we may be required to enter into arrangements with one or more alternative manufacturing companies, which may cause delays in producing components or result in significant increases in costs. To date, we have not experienced any material delay that has adversely impacted our operations, but this does not mean that we will continue to have timely access to adequate supplies of essential materials and components in the future or that supplies of these materials and components will be available on satisfactory terms when needed. If our vendors for these materials and components are unable to meet our requirements, fail to make shipments in a timely manner, or ship defective materials or components, we could experience a shortage or delay in supply or fail to meet our contractual requirements, which would adversely affect our results of operations and negatively impact our cash flow and profitability. Continued delay in our ability to produce and deliver our products and services could also cause our customers to purchase alternative products and services from our competitors and/or harm our reputation.
Our products and services may contain errors or defects, which could result in damage to our reputation, lost revenues, diverted development resources and increased service costs, litigation and product recalls. These risks may be heightened when our products or services are used in connection with human reproductive medicine.
Our products and services must meet stringent requirements and we must develop our products and services solutions quickly to keep pace with the rapidly changing market. Products and services as sophisticated as ours could contain undetected errors or defects, especially when first introduced or when new equipment or versions of our software are released. If our products and services are not free from errors or defects, we may incur an injury to our reputation, lost revenues, diverted development resources, increased customer service and support costs, product recalls and litigation. The costs incurred in correcting any product errors or defects may be substantial and could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Table of Contents
Due to the low temperatures at which some of our products are used and the fact that some of our products are relied upon by our customers or end users in their facilities or operations or are manufactured for relatively broad medical, transportation, or consumer use, we face an inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event that the failure, use, or misuse of our products results, or is alleged to result, in death, bodily injury, property or sample damage, or economic loss. The amount of damages for which we are potentially held liable for may be higher when our products or services are used in connection with human reproductive medicine than when they are used for other purposes. For example, in some states, damage to an embryo may be deemed wrongful death for which punitive or other damages may be awarded, which would not otherwise be available. In addition, we specialize in the secure storage of biological specimens, materials and samples covering the full range of temperatures from cryogenic through controlled room temperature. Any damage to these specimens, materials and samples may be attributed to a failure of our storage systems or services, which could lead to claims for damages made by customers and could also harm our relationship with customers and damage our reputation in the life sciences industry, resulting in material harm to our business.
Although we currently maintain product liability coverage, which we believe is adequate for product liability claims and for the continued operation of our business, it includes customary exclusions and conditions, may not cover certain specialized applications and generally does not cover warranty claims. Additionally, such insurance may become difficult to obtain or be unobtainable in the future on terms acceptable to us. A successful product liability claim or series of claims against us, including one or more consumer claims purporting to constitute class actions or claims resulting from extraordinary loss events, in excess of or outside our insurance coverage, or a significant warranty claim or series of claims against us, could materially decrease our liquidity, impair our financial condition, and adversely affect our results of operations. See “—Risks Related to Our Business—Our products and services may expose us to liability in excess of our current insurance coverage” for additional information.
In addition, regardless of merit or eventual outcome, product liability claims may result in, among other things, costs of litigation, distraction of management’s attention from our primary business, the inability to commercialize our existing or new products, decreased demand for our products or, if cleared or approved, products in development, damage to our business reputation, product recalls or withdrawals from the market, withdrawal of clinical trial participants, substantial monetary awards to patients or other claimants, or loss of revenue.
While we may attempt to manage our product liability exposure by proactively recalling or withdrawing from the market any defective products, any recall or market withdrawal of our products may delay the supply of those products to our customers and may impact our reputation. We can provide no assurance that we will be successful in initiating appropriate market recall or market withdrawal efforts that may be required in the future or that these efforts will have the intended effect of preventing product malfunctions and the accompanying product liability that may result. Additionally, any recall could result in significant costs to us and significant adverse publicity, which could harm our ability to market our products in the future. Such recalls and withdrawals may also be used by our competitors to harm our reputation for safety or be perceived by customers as a safety risk when considering the use of our products. Though it may not be possible to quantify the economic impact of a recall, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Additionally, for some of our products we offer a limited warranty for product returns which are due to defects in quality and workmanship. We estimate our potential liability for future product returns and establish reserves on our financial statements in amounts that we believe will be sufficient to address our warranty obligations; however, our actual liability for product returns may significantly exceed the amount of our reserves. If we underestimate our potential liability for future product returns, or if unanticipated events result in returns that exceed our historical experience, our financial condition and operating results could be materially and adversely affected.
Our business operations, financial performance and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises, such as COVID-19.
The occurrence of pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises could materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including due to negative impacts to the global economy, disruptions to global supply chains and workforce participation, and volatility and disruption of financial markets. For example, following COVID-19’s initial outbreak, governments and businesses took unprecedented measures in response, including restrictions on travel and business operations, temporary closures of businesses, and quarantine and shelter-in-place orders. Such response significantly curtailed global economic activity and caused significant volatility and disruption in global financial markets, which adversely affected our business operations, financial performance and results of operations. During the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, certain of our facilities experienced disruptions, such as our MVE Biological Solutions manufacturing facility in Chengdu, China that was temporarily impacted by COVID-19 lockdowns in China during the third quarter of 2022, and similar disruptions could occur in the future.
16
Table of Contents
The extent to which pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises may impact our business operations, financial performance and results of operations is uncertain and will depend on many factors outside our control, including the timing, extent, trajectory and duration of the pandemic, epidemic or other public health crises, the emergence of new variants, the development, availability, distribution and effectiveness of vaccines and treatments, and the imposition of protective public safety measures. Other potential impacts on us resulting from pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises may include, but not limited to, material adverse effects on our manufacturing, supply chain and distribution channels, our ability to execute our strategic plans, and our profitability. The potential effects of pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises may also impact and potentially heighten many of our other risk factors discussed in this “Risk Factors” section.
We will have difficulty increasing our revenues if we experience delays, difficulties or unanticipated costs in establishing the sales, marketing and distribution capabilities necessary to successfully commercialize our solutions.
We plan to further enhance our sales, marketing and distribution capabilities in the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. It will be expensive and time-consuming for us to develop and integrate our global marketing and sales network and thus we intend to further broaden our strategic alliances with domestic and international providers of shipping services and other solutions providers to the life sciences industry to incorporate use of our platform of solutions in their service offerings. We may not be able to provide adequate incentive to our sales force or to establish and maintain favorable distribution and marketing collaborations with others to promote our solutions. In addition, any third party with whom we have established a marketing and distribution relationship may not devote sufficient time to the marketing and sales of our solutions, thereby exposing us to potential expenses in exiting such distribution agreements. We, and any of our alliance partners, must also market our services in compliance with federal, state, local and international laws relating to the provision of incentives and inducements. Violation of these laws can result in substantial penalties. Therefore, if we are unable to successfully motivate and expand our marketing and sales force and further develop our sales and marketing capabilities, or if our alliance partners fail to promote our solutions, we will have difficulty increasing our revenues and the revenue may not offset the additional expense of expansion.
We expect to base our equipment and inventory purchasing decisions on our forecasts of customers’ demand, and if our forecasts are inaccurate, our operating results could be materially harmed.
As our customer base increases, we expect the need to purchase additional equipment and inventory. Our forecasts will be based on multiple assumptions, each of which may cause our estimates to be inaccurate, affecting our ability to provide products to our customers. When demand for our products increases significantly, we may not be able to meet demand on a timely basis, and we may need to expend a significant amount of time working with our customers to allocate limited supply and maintain positive customer relations, or we may incur additional costs in order to rush the manufacture and delivery of additional products. If we underestimate customers’ demand, we may forego revenue opportunities, lose market share and damage our customer relationships. Conversely, if we overestimate customer demand, we may purchase more equipment and inventory than we are able to use or sell at any given time or at all. As a result of our failure to properly estimate demand for our products, we could have excess or obsolete equipment and/or inventory, resulting in a decline in the value of our equipment and/or inventory, which would increase our costs of revenues and reduce our liquidity. Our failure to accurately manage our equipment purchases and inventory relative to demand would adversely affect our operating results.
If we suffer a disruption or loss to our factories, facilities or distribution system due to factors outside of our control, our operations could be seriously harmed.
We rely on our distribution system including third-party shipment and carrier services to transport our shippers containing biological material. These third-party operations could be subject to natural disasters, adverse weather conditions, other business disruptions, and carrier error, which could cause delays in the delivery of our shippers, which in turn could cause serious harm to the biological material being shipped. As a result, any prolonged delay in shipment, whether due to technical difficulties, power failures, break-ins, destruction or damage to carrier facilities as a result of a natural disaster, fire, or any other reason, could result in damage to the contents of the shipper.
Additionally, our factories and facilities may be subject to catastrophic loss due to fire, flood, terrorism, increasing severity or frequency of extreme weather events, or other natural or man-made disasters, as well as disruptions due to a widespread outbreak of an illness or any other public health crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
Further, we operate facilities that specialize in the secure storage of biological specimens, materials and samples. If natural disasters or similar events, like hurricanes, fires or explosions or large-scale accidents or power outages, were to occur that prevented
17
Table of Contents
us from using all or a significant portion of these facilities, damaged critical infrastructure or our customers’ biological samples, or otherwise disrupted operations at such facilities, this could affect our ability to maintain ongoing operations and cause us to incur significant expenses. Insurance coverage may not be adequate to fully cover losses in any particular case.
Our products and services may expose us to liability in excess of our current insurance coverage.
Our platform of products and services involve significant risks of liability, which may substantially exceed the revenues we derive from them. We cannot predict the magnitude of these potential liabilities. We currently maintain general liability insurance and product liability insurance. Claims may be made against us that exceed the limits of these policies.
Our liability policy is an “occurrence” based policy. Thus, our policy is complete when we purchased it and following cancellation of the policy it continues to provide coverage for future claims based on conduct that took place during the policy term. Our insurance coverage, however, may not protect us against all liability because our policies typically have various exceptions to the claims covered and also require us to assume some costs of the claim even though a portion of the claim may be covered. In addition, if we expand into new markets, we may not be aware of the need for, or be able to obtain insurance coverage for such activities or, if insurance is obtained, the dollar amount of any liabilities incurred could exceed our insurance coverage. A partially or completely uninsured claim, if successful and of significant magnitude, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we use biological and hazardous materials in a manner that causes injury, we could be liable for damages.
Our customers may ship potentially harmful biological materials in our dewars. We cannot eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury to employees or third parties from the use, storage, handling or disposal of these materials. In the event of contamination or injury, we could be held liable for any resulting damages, and any liability could exceed our resources or any applicable insurance coverage we may have. Additionally, we are subject to, on an ongoing basis, federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the use, storage, handling and disposal of these materials and specified waste products. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages.
We operate in a competitive industry and if we cannot compete effectively, we will lose business.
We expect to continue to experience significant and increasing levels of competition in the future. While there are technological and marketing barriers to entry, we cannot guarantee that these barriers will be sufficient to defend our market share against current and future competitors. Our principal competitive considerations in our market include:
| ● | financial resources to allocate to proper marketing and an appropriate sales effort; |
| ● | acceptance of our solutions model; |
| ● | acceptance of our solutions including per use fee structures and other charges for services; |
| ● | keeping up technologically with ongoing development of enhanced features and benefits; |
| ● | the ability to develop and maintain and expand strategic alliances; |
| ● | establishing our brand name; |
| ● | our ability to deliver our solutions to our customers when requested; and |
| ● | our timing of introductions of new solutions and services. |
Our future revenue stream depends to a large degree on our ability to bring new solutions and services to market on a timely basis. We generally sell our products and services in industries that are characterized by increased competition through frequent innovation, rapid technological changes and changing industry standards. Without the timely introduction of new products, services and enhancements, our products and services may become obsolete over time, in which case our revenue and operating results could suffer.
There may also be other companies which are currently developing competitive products and services or which may in the future develop technologies and products that are comparable, superior or less costly than our own. For example, some specialty couriers and packaging manufacturers with greater resources currently provide temperature-controlled packaging solutions and may develop other products or solutions in the future, both of which compete with our products. A competitor that has greater resources than us may be able to develop and expand their networks and product offerings more quickly, devote greater resources to the marketing and sale of
18
Table of Contents
their solutions and adopt more aggressive pricing policies. We may not be able to successfully compete with a competitor that has greater resources, which may adversely affect our business.
If we successfully develop products and/or services, but those products and/or services do not achieve and maintain market acceptance, our business will not be profitable.
The degree of acceptance of our platform of existing products and services or any future products or services by our current target markets, and any other markets to which we attempt to sell our products and services, as well as our profitability and growth, will depend on a number of factors including, among others, our shippers’ ability to perform and preserve the integrity of the materials shipped, relative convenience and ease of use of our shippers and/or Cryoportal®, reliability and effectiveness of our bioservices, biostorage and cryopreservation services, availability of alternative products or new technologies that make our solutions less desirable or competitive, pricing and cost effectiveness, effectiveness of our or our collaborators’ sales and marketing strategy and the adoption cycles of our targeted customers.
In addition, even if our products and services achieve market acceptance, we may not be able to maintain that market acceptance over time if new products or services are introduced that are more favorably received than our products and services, are more cost effective, or render our products obsolete. Further, there can be no assurance that future developments in technology will not make our technology non-competitive or obsolete, or significantly reduce our operating margins or the demand for our offerings, or otherwise negatively impact our ability to be profitable.
The integration and operation of acquired businesses may disrupt our business and create additional expenses, and we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisitions.
Integration of an acquired business involves numerous risks, including assimilation of operations of the acquired business and difficulties in the convergence of systems and processes, the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, risks of entering markets in which we have had no or only limited direct experience, assumption of unknown or unquantifiable liabilities, difficulties in completing strategic initiatives already underway in the acquired company, and unfamiliarity with partners of the acquired company, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We cannot assure that these risks or other unforeseen factors will not offset the intended benefits of the acquisitions, in whole or in part.
Additionally, potential acquisition opportunities become available to us from time to time, and we periodically engage in discussions or negotiations relating to potential acquisitions, including acquisitions that may be material in size or scope to our business. Any acquisition may or may not occur and, if an acquisition does occur, it may not be successful in enhancing our business for one or more of the following reasons:
| ● | any business acquired may not be integrated successfully and may not prove profitable; |
| ● | the price we pay for any business acquired may overstate the value of that business or otherwise be too high; |
| ● | liabilities we take on through the acquisition may prove to be higher than we expected; |
| ● | we may fail to achieve acquisition synergies; or |
| ● | the focus on the integration of operations of acquired entities may divert management’s attention from the day-to-day operation of our businesses. |
Acquisitions and strategic investments and alliances may also require us to integrate and collaborate with a different company culture, management team, business model, business infrastructure and sales and distribution methodology, and assimilate and retain geographically dispersed, decentralized operations and personnel. Depending on the size and complexity of an acquisition, our successful integration of the entity depends on a variety of factors, including introducing new products and meeting revenue targets as expected, the retention of key employees and key customers, increased exposure to certain governmental regulations and compliance requirements and increased costs and use of resources. Further, the integration of acquired businesses is likely to result in our systems and internal controls becoming increasingly complex and more difficult to manage. Any difficulties in the assimilation of acquired businesses into our control system could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our financial reporting obligations.
Even if we are able to successfully integrate acquired businesses, we may not be able to realize the revenue and other synergies and growth that we anticipated from the acquisition in the time frame that we expected, and the costs of achieving these benefits may be higher than what we expected. As a result, the acquisition and integration of acquired businesses may not contribute to our earnings as expected and we may not achieve the other anticipated strategic and financial benefits of such transactions.

Impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets has had, and in the future could have, a material non-cash adverse impact on our results of operations.
As of December 31, 2025, we had $22.4 million of goodwill and $138.1 million of other intangible assets on our balance sheets. We assess intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter or more frequently if we believe indicators of impairment exist. In addition, intangible assets and their related useful lives are reviewed at least annually to determine whether there are any adverse conditions that would indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. Our valuation methodology for assessing impairment requires management to make judgments and assumptions based on experience and to rely heavily on projections of future operating performance. Because we operate in highly competitive environments, projections of our future operating results and cash flows may vary significantly from our actual results. We may be required to record non-cash impairment charges with respect to our goodwill or other intangible assets during any period we determine these assets are impaired, which has had, and in the future could have, a material adverse impact on our results of operations. For example, for the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded non-cash impairment charges of $54.6 million related to the full impairment of the goodwill associated with our MVE reporting unit and $9.2 million related to the impairment of certain trademarks and tradenames.
Risks Related to Our Technology and Intellectual Property
We rely upon certain critical information systems, including our Cryoportal® software platform, for the operation of our business; the failure of any critical information system could adversely impact our reputation and future revenues, and we may be required to increase our spending on data and system security.
We rely upon certain critical information systems, including our Cryoportal® software platform which is used by our customers and business partners to automate the entry of orders, prepare customs documentation and facilitate status and location monitoring of shipped orders while in transit. In addition, the provision of services to our customers and the operation of our networks and systems involve the storage and transmission of significant amounts of proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data, including personal information of customers, employees and others. Our technology infrastructure and critical information systems are subject to damage or interruption from a number of potential sources, including unauthorized intrusions, cyberattacks, software viruses or other malware, natural disasters, power failures, employee error or malfeasances and other events. Despite our best efforts, no cybersecurity or emergency recovery process is failsafe, and if our safeguards fail or our technology infrastructure or critical information systems are compromised, the safety and efficiency of our operations could be materially harmed, our reputation could suffer, and we could face additional costs, liabilities, costly legal challenges.
Cyberattacks, data incidents and breaches in the security of our information systems and networks and of the electronic and confidential information in our possession could materially adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations, in addition to our reputation and relationships with our employees, customers, suppliers and business partners.
As part of our normal business activities, we collect and store or have access to certain proprietary confidential, and personal information, including information about our employees, customers, suppliers and business partners, which may be entitled to protection under a number of regulatory regimes. The protection and security of our network systems and our own information, as well as information relating to our employees, customers, suppliers, business partners and others, is vitally important to us. Any failure of us to maintain the security of our network systems and the proprietary, confidential, and personal data in our possession, including via the penetration of our network security and the misappropriation of proprietary, confidential and personal information, could result in costly investigations and remediation, business disruption, damage to our reputation, financial obligations to third parties, fines, penalties, regulatory proceedings and private litigation with potentially large costs, and also result in deterioration in our employees’, customers’, suppliers’ and business partners’ confidence in us and other competitive disadvantages, and thus could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The frequency, intensity, and sophistication of cyberattacks and data security incidents has significantly increased in recent years and is constant. As with many other businesses, we are continually subject to cyberattacks and the risk of data security incidents. Due to the increased risk of these types of attacks and incidents, we have implemented information technology and data security tools, measures, and processes designed to protect our networks systems, services, and the personal, confidential or proprietary information in our possession, and to ensure an effective response to any cyberattack or data security incident. We also have privacy and data security policies in place that are designed to detect, prevent, and/or mitigate cyberattacks and data security incidents. Whether or not these policies, tools, and measures are ultimately successful, the expenditures could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations, and divert management’s attention from pursuing our strategic objectives. As newer technologies evolve, we could
20
Table of Contents
be exposed to increased risks from cyberattacks, data security events, and data breaches, including those from human error, negligence or mismanagement or from illegal or fraudulent acts.
Although we take the security of our network systems and information seriously, there can be no assurance that the security measures we employ will effectively prevent unauthorized persons from obtaining unauthorized access to our systems and information due to the evolving nature and intensity of cyberattacks and threats to data security, in light of new and sophisticated tools and methods used by criminals and cyberterrorists to penetrate and compromise systems, including computer viruses, malware, ransomware, phishing, misrepresentation, social engineering and forgery, which make it increasingly challenging to anticipate, harder to detect, and more difficult to adequately mitigate these risks. While we have cyber security insurance, we may incur significant costs in the event of a successful cyber incident against us or in responding to and recovering from a cyber incident that are not covered by, or exceed the limits of, such insurance. Additionally, the cost and operational consequences of implementing, maintaining and enhancing further data or system protection measures could increase significantly to overcome increasingly intense, complex and sophisticated global cyber threats.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to obtain patent protection for our solutions, preserve our trade secrets, and operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others.
Our policy is to seek to protect our proprietary position by, among other methods, filing United States patent applications related to our technology, inventions and improvements that are important to the development of our business. Our patents or patent applications may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented in the future or the rights granted may not provide a competitive advantage. We intend to vigorously protect and defend our intellectual property. Costly and time-consuming litigation brought by us may be necessary to enforce our patents and to protect our trade secrets and know-how, or to determine the enforceability, scope and validity of the proprietary rights of others.
We also rely upon trade secrets, technical know-how and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position. We seek to protect these trade secrets, in part, by entering into confidentiality agreements and inventions assignment and work for hire agreements in connection with employment, consulting, or advisory relationships. Despite these efforts, any of these parties may breach the agreements and disclose our proprietary information, including our trade secrets, and we may not be able to obtain adequate remedies for such breaches. Additionally, our competitors may independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques or otherwise gain access to our proprietary technology, or we may not be able to meaningfully protect our rights in unpatented proprietary technology.
Our current and potential competitors and other third parties may have or obtain patents or additional proprietary rights that would prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to make, use or sell our solutions either in the United States or internationally. Additionally, we may face assertions of claims by holders of patents alleging that we are infringing upon their patent rights, which claims may be without merit, but may nonetheless result in our incurring substantial costs of defense.
Risks Related to Regulatory and Legal Matters
Complying with certain regulations that apply to shipments using our solutions can limit our activities and increase our cost of operations.
Shipments using our solutions and services are subject to various regulations in the various countries in which we operate. For example, shipments using our solutions may be required to comply with the shipping requirements promulgated by the CDC, the Occupational Safety and Health Organization (“OSHA”), the DOT as well as rules established by the IATA and the ICAO. Additionally, our data logger may be subject to regulation and certification by the FDA, the FCC, and the FAA. We will need to ensure that our solutions and services comply with relevant rules and regulations to make our solutions and services marketable, and in some cases, compliance is difficult to determine. Significant changes in such regulations could require costly changes to our solutions and services or prevent use of our shippers for an extended period of time while we seek to comply with changed regulations. If we are unable to comply with any of these rules or regulations or fail to obtain any required approvals, our ability to market our solutions and services may be adversely affected. In addition, even if we are able to comply with these rules and regulations, compliance can result in increased costs. In either event, our financial results and condition may be adversely affected. We depend on our business partners and unrelated and frequently unknown third-party agents in foreign countries to act on our behalf to complete the importation process and to make delivery of our shippers to the final user. The failure of these third parties to perform their duties could result in damage to the contents of the shipper resulting in customer dissatisfaction or liability to us, even if we are not at fault.

Changes in trade policy, tariff and import/export regulations may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our international operations and transactions depend upon favorable trade relations between the United States and the foreign countries in which our customers and suppliers have operations. It may be time consuming and expensive for us to adapt to any changes in U.S. or international social, political, regulatory and economic conditions or in laws and policies governing foreign trade, manufacturing, development and investment in the territories or countries where we currently sell our products or conduct our business. If such changes occur, this could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
For example, beginning in 2025, the current Trump administration instituted changes in trade policies that included the imposition of higher tariffs on imports into the U.S. and other government regulations affecting trade between the U.S. and other countries where we conduct our business, such as China and the European Union (EU), among others. In response, several countries have imposed, or threatened to impose, reciprocal tariffs on imports from the U.S. and other retaliatory measures. Various modifications to the U.S. tariffs have been announced and further changes could be made in the future, which may include additional sector-based tariffs or other measures. The ultimate impact remains uncertain and will depend on several factors, including whether additional or incremental U.S. tariffs or other measures are announced or imposed, to what extent other countries implement tariffs or other retaliatory measures in response, and the overall magnitude and duration of these measures. If disputes and conflicts further escalate, actions by governments in response could be significantly more severe and restrictive.
We, along with our customers, are subject to various international governmental regulations. Compliance with or changes in such regulations may cause us to incur significant expenses, and if we fail to maintain satisfactory compliance with certain regulations, we may be forced to recall products and cease their manufacture and distribution, and we could be subject to civil or criminal penalties.
We, along with our customers, are subject to various significant international, federal, state and local regulations, including but not limited to regulations in the areas of health and safety, packaging, product content, employment, labor and immigration, import/export controls, trade restrictions and anti-competition. In addition, as a global organization, we are subject to data privacy and security laws, regulations, and customer-imposed controls in numerous jurisdictions as a result of having access to and processing confidential, personal, sensitive and/or patient health data in the course of our business. The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which became effective in May 2018, applies to our activities related to products and services that we offer to EU customers and workers. The GDPR established new requirements regarding the handling of personal data and includes significant penalties for non-compliance (including possible fines of up to 4 percent of total company revenue). Other governmental authorities around the world have passed or are considering similar types of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning data protection. Each of these privacy, security and data protection laws and regulations could impose significant limitations and increase our cost of providing our products and services where we process end user personal data and could harm our results of operations and expose us to significant fines, penalties and other damages.
We must also comply with complex foreign and U.S. laws and regulations, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act, and other local laws prohibiting corrupt payments to governmental officials, anti-competition regulations and sanctions imposed by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control and other similar laws and regulations. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in fines and penalties, criminal sanctions, restrictions on our business conduct and on our ability to offer our products in one or more countries, and could also materially affect our brand, our ability to attract and retain employees, our international operations, our business and our operating results. Although we have implemented policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that our employees, contractors, or agents will not violate our policies.
These regulations are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over time. We may be required to incur significant expenses to comply with these regulations or to remedy any violations of these regulations. Any failure by us to comply with applicable government regulations could also result in the cessation of our operations or portions of our operations, product recalls or impositions of fines and restrictions on our ability to carry on or expand our operations. In addition, because many of our products are regulated or sold into regulated industries, we must comply with additional regulations in marketing our products. Any significant change in these regulations could reduce demand for our products, force us to modify our products to comply with new regulations or increase our costs of producing these products. If demand for our products is adversely affected or our costs increase, our operating results and business would suffer.
22
Table of Contents
We are subject to regulation by the FDA or certain similar foreign regulatory agencies, and failure to comply with such regulations could harm our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.
Certain of our operations are subject to regulation by the FDA or similar foreign regulatory agencies. In addition, we may in the future develop products that are subject to regulation as medical devices by the FDA and similar foreign regulatory agencies. For example, we are aware that China’s National Medical Products Administration has had discussions that may require certain of our products to be registered as Class II medical devices. The regulations enforced by the FDA and similar foreign regulatory agencies govern a wide variety of product-related activities, including the research, development, testing, manufacture, quality control, approval, clearance, labeling, packaging, storage, record-keeping, promotion, advertising, distribution, marketing, post-approval monitoring and reporting, pricing, and export and import of pharmaceutical products. If we or any of our customers, suppliers or distributors fail to comply with FDA and other applicable foreign regulatory requirements or are perceived to potentially have failed to comply, we may face, among other things, warning letters; adverse publicity affecting both us and our customers; investigations or notices of non-compliance, fines, injunctions, and civil penalties; import or export restrictions; partial suspensions or total shutdown of production facilities or the imposition of operating restrictions; increased difficulty in obtaining required FDA clearances or approvals or foreign equivalents; seizures or recalls of our products or those of our customers; or the inability to sell our products and services. Any such FDA or other foreign regulatory agency actions could disrupt our business and operations, lead to significant remedial costs and have a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Financial Condition
Historically, we have incurred significant losses and we may continue to incur losses in the future.
Although we generated net income of $78.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, we have historically incurred significant losses, including losses of $114.8 million and $99.6 million million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, resepectively. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $688.9 million. In order to achieve and sustain revenue growth in the future, we must expand our market presence and revenues from existing and new customers. We may continue to incur losses in the future and may never generate revenues sufficient to become profitable or to sustain profitability. Continuing losses may impair our ability to raise the additional capital required to continue and expand our operations.
Our indebtedness and liabilities could limit the cash flow available for our operations and expose us to risks that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We have a substantial amount of indebtedness. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $262.4 million of indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, on a consolidated basis. We may also incur additional indebtedness to meet future financing needs. Our indebtedness could have significant negative consequences for our security holders and our business, results of operations and financial condition by, among other things:
| ● | increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions; |
| ● | limiting our ability to obtain additional financing; |
| ● | requiring the dedication of a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, which will reduce the amount of cash available for other purposes; |
| ● | limiting our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our business; |
| ● | diluting the interests of our existing stockholders as a result of issuing shares of our common stock upon conversion of any convertible indebtedness; and |
| ● | placing us at a possible competitive disadvantage with competitors that are less leveraged than us or have better access to capital. |
Our business may not generate sufficient funds, and we may otherwise be unable to maintain sufficient cash reserves, to pay amounts due under our indebtedness, including our outstanding 0.75% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Convertible Senior Notes”), and our cash needs may increase in the future. In addition, any future indebtedness that we may incur may contain financial and other restrictive covenants that limit our ability to operate our business, raise capital or make payments under our other indebtedness. If we fail to comply with these covenants or to make payments under our indebtedness when due, then we would be in default under that indebtedness, which could, in turn, result in that and our other indebtedness becoming immediately payable in full.

Risks Related to Our Preferred Stock
The issuance of shares of our Series C Preferred Stock reduces the relative voting power of holders of our common stock, dilutes the ownership of such holders, and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
In connection with financing our acquisition of MVE Biological Solutions, on October 1, 2020, we completed the sale of 250,000 shares of a newly designated Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 (“Series C Preferred Stock”), at a price of $1,000 per share, the original purchase price, to funds affiliated with The Blackstone Group Inc., or Blackstone. The holders of our Series C Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends at a rate of 4.0% per annum, paid-in-kind, accruing daily and paid quarterly in arrears and are also entitled to participate in dividends declared or paid on the common stock on an as-converted basis.
Each holder of our Series C Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Series C Preferred Stockholders”) has the right, at its option, to convert its Series C Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, into common stock at a conversion price equal to $38.6152 per share subject to certain customary adjustments. Subject to certain conditions, we may, at our option, require conversion of all of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock to common stock if, for at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date we notify the Series C Preferred Stockholders of the election to convert, the closing price of our common stock is at least 150% of the conversion price. On February 5, 2021, the Company received a waiver and conversion notice from Blackstone Freeze Parent L.P. and Blackstone Tactical Opportunities Fund – FD L.P. and converted an aggregate of 50,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock, resulting in the issuance of an aggregate of 1,312,860 shares of common stock.
Any subsequent conversion of shares of the Series C Preferred Stock to shares of our common stock would further dilute the ownership interest of existing holders of our common stock, and any sale in the public market of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. Additionally, we granted the Series C Preferred Stockholders customary registration rights in respect of their securities. These registration rights facilitate the resale of our common stock issuable upon conversion of such securities into the public market, and any such resale would increase the number of shares of our common stock available for public trading.
The Series C Preferred Stockholders may exercise influence over us, including through their right to nominate for election one member to our board of directors.
The Series C Preferred Stockholders are generally entitled to vote with the holders of the shares of common stock on all matters submitted for a vote of holders of shares of Common Stock (voting together with the holders of shares of common stock as one class) on an as-converted basis, subject to certain NASDAQ voting limitations, if applicable. Additionally, the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock is required for so long as any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock remain outstanding for (i) amendments to the Company’s organizational documents that have an adverse effect on the holders of Series C Preferred Stock and (ii) issuances by the Company of securities that are senior to, or equal in priority with, the Series C Preferred Stock, including any shares of the Company’s Class A Preferred Stock or Class B Preferred Stock. In addition, for so long as 75% of the Series C Preferred Stock issued in connection with the related securities purchase agreement remains outstanding, the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock will be required for (i) any voluntary dissolution, liquidation, bankruptcy, winding up or deregistration or delisting and (ii) incurrence by Cryoport of any indebtedness unless our ratio of debt to LTM EBITDA (as defined in the Certificate of Designation of the Series C Preferred Stock) would be less than a ratio of 5-to-1 on a pro forma basis giving effect to such incurrence and the use of proceeds therefrom.
Additionally, an affiliate of Blackstone has the right to nominate for election one member to our board of directors for so long as certain parties hold 66.67% of the Series C Preferred Stock issued in the Blackstone financing transaction. If elected, the director designated by Blackstone is entitled to serve on committees of our board of directors, subject to applicable law and NASDAQ rules. Notwithstanding the fact that all directors will be subject to fiduciary duties to us and to applicable law, the interests of the director designated by Blackstone may differ from the interests of our security holders as a whole or of our other directors.
As a result, the Series C Preferred Stockholders have the ability to influence the outcome of certain matters affecting our governance and capitalization. The sponsors of the Series C Preferred Stockholders are in the business of making or advising on investments in companies, including businesses that may directly or indirectly compete with certain portions of our business, and they may have interests that diverge from, or even conflict with, those of our other shareholders. They may also pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us.
24
Table of Contents
Our obligations to the Series C Preferred Stockholders could also limit our ability to obtain additional financing or increase our borrowing costs, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition.
Our Series C Preferred Stock has rights, preferences, and privileges that are not held by, and are preferential to, the rights of holders of our common stock, which could adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition.
The Series C Preferred Stockholders have the right under the Certificate of Designation of the Series C Preferred Stock to receive a liquidation preference entitling them to be paid an amount per share equal to the greater of (i) the original purchase price, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends and (ii) the amount that the holder would have been entitled to receive at such time if the Series C Preferred Stock were converted into common stock. In addition, the Series C Preferred Stockholders are entitled to dividends at a rate of 4.0% per annum, paid-in-kind, accruing daily and paid quarterly in arrears. The Series C Preferred Stockholders are also entitled to participate in dividends declared or paid on the common stock on an as-converted basis.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
Certain of our existing stockholders own and have the right to acquire a substantial number of shares of common stock.
As of February 27, 2026, our directors, executive officers and beneficial owners of 10% or more of our outstanding common stock beneficially owned 12,203,384 shares of common stock assuming their conversion of all outstanding Series C Preferred Stock and their exercise of all outstanding options held by them that are exercisable within 60 days of February 27, 2026, which represented approximately 23.0% of our outstanding common stock. As such, the concentration of beneficial ownership of our common stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of Cryoport and may adversely affect the voting or other rights of other holders of our common stock.
Future sales of shares of our common stock may depress the price of our shares and be dilutive to our existing stockholders.
Future issuances of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares for resale in the open market may decrease the market price per share of our common stock. As of February 27, 2026, there were 49,856,135 shares of our common stock outstanding. Substantially all of these shares of common stock are eligible for trading in the public market. The market price of our common stock may decline if our stockholders sell a large number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the market perceives that such sales may occur.
As of December 31, 2025, we could also issue up to an additional 6,782,638 shares of our common stock upon exercise of outstanding options and vesting of restricted stock units and 2,437,831 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under our stock incentive plans. In addition, we reserved 1,583,280 shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes and 6,382,937 shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of our Series C Preferred Stock. The exercise of any options or vesting of restricted stock units, as well as the issuance of our common stock upon conversion of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes, the Series C Preferred Stock, or in connection with acquisitions and other issuances of our common stock, could have an adverse effect on the market price of the shares of our common stock and dilute our existing stockholders.
To the extent that we raise additional funds through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities will result in dilution to our stockholders. Further, investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders.
Our stock price has been and will likely continue to be volatile.
The market price of our common stock has been highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to technological innovations or new solutions and services by us or our competitors, additions or departures of key personnel, sales of our common stock, our ability to execute our business plan, our operating results being below expectations, loss of any strategic relationship, industry developments, economic and other external factors and period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results.
In addition, the securities markets have from time-to-time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We have not paid dividends on our common stock in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to compliance with covenants in current and future agreements governing our indebtedness, and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual arrangements and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if the price of our common stock appreciates.
Our Articles of Incorporation allows our board of directors to issue up to 2,500,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock.
Our Articles of Incorporation allows our board of directors to issue up to 2,500,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, without action by our stockholders. We have designated 800,000 shares as Class A Preferred Stock, 585,000 shares as Class B Preferred Stock and 250,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, of which 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding at February 27, 2026. See “—Risks Related to Our Preferred Stock” for additional information regarding our outstanding Series C Preferred Stock. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) such shares of preferred stock could have liquidation rights that are senior to the liquidation preference applicable to our common stock and Preferred Stock, (ii) such shares of preferred stock could have voting or conversion rights, which could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock and preferred stock and (iii) the ownership interest of holders of our common stock will be diluted following the issuance of any such shares of preferred stock. In addition, the issuance of such shares of blank check preferred stock could have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change of control of our Company.
Provisions in our bylaws and Nevada law might discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our Company or changes in our management and, as a result, may depress the trading price of our common stock.
Provisions of our bylaws and Nevada law may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which you might otherwise receive a premium for your shares of our common stock. The relevant bylaw provisions may also prevent or frustrate attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our management. These provisions include advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and nominations, and the ability of our board of directors to make, alter or repeal our bylaws.
In addition, Section 78.411, et seq. of the Nevada Revised Statutes prohibits a publicly-held Nevada corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder (generally defined as a person which together with its affiliates owns, or within the last two years has owned, 10% of our voting stock) for a period of two years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner.
The existence of the foregoing provisions and other potential anti-takeover measures could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. They could also deter potential acquirers of our Company, thereby reducing the likelihood that you could receive a premium for your common stock in an acquisition.
General Risk Factors
Our ability to grow and compete in our industry will be hampered if we are unable to retain the continued service of our key professionals or to identify, hire and retain additional qualified professionals.
Our success in implementing our business strategy depends largely on the skills, experience and performance of key members of our executive management team and others in key management positions. The collective efforts of each of these persons working as a team will be critical to us as we continue to develop our technologies, tests and engineering and development and sales programs. As a result of the difficulty in locating qualified new management, the loss or incapacity of existing members of our executive management team could adversely affect our operations. If we were to lose one or more of these key employees, we could experience difficulties in finding qualified successors, competing effectively, developing our technologies and implementing our business strategy. We do not maintain “key person” insurance on any of our employees.
In addition, a critical factor to our business is our ability to attract and retain qualified professionals including key employees and consultants. We are continually at risk of losing current professionals or being unable to hire additional professionals as needed. If

we are unable to attract new qualified employees, our ability to grow will be adversely affected. If we are unable to retain current employees or strategic consultants, our financial condition and ability to maintain operations may be adversely affected.
If equity research analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or if they issue unfavorable commentary or downgrade our common stock, the price of our common stock could decline.
The trading market for our common stock relies in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us and our business. We do not control these analysts. The price of our common stock could decline if one or more equity analyst downgrades our stock or if analysts downgrade our stock or issue other unfavorable commentary or cease publishing reports about us or our business.

General Overview
We are a leading global provider of integrated, temperature-controlled supply chain solutions for the life sciences, with a strong focus on supporting the rapidly growing cell and gene therapy (“CGT”) market. Our solutions are purpose-built to support a broad range of global life sciences markets, including biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies, the animal health markets, reproductive medicine, academic institutions, research, and government agencies. Our solutions help our customers ensure the safe, compliant storage, handling, and delivery of high value, temperature sensitive biological materials, including cell and gene therapies and immunotherapies.
Our corporate headquarters, located in Nashville, Tennessee, is complemented by global sites in the Americas, EMEA (Europe, the Middle East, and Africa), and APAC (Asia-Pacific), including locations in the United States, United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Japan, and China.
See the “Business” section in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-K for additional information.
Impact of Inflation
Inflation generally impacts us by increasing our costs of labor, material, transportation and pricing from third party manufacturers. The rates of inflation have not had a material impact on our financial statements in the past. Based on the current economic outlook, inflationary pressures could affect our financial performance in the future if cost increases cannot be offset by net realized annual price increases and productivity gains.
Segment Reporting
Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The CODM is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
We have two reportable segments: Life Sciences Services and Life Sciences Products. The Company’s Life Sciences Services reportable segment, which aggregates two operating segments (BioLogistics and BioStorage/BioServices), provides temperature-controlled logistics, biostorage and bioservices within the life science industry through direct sales. Cryopreservation services are included in the BioLogistics operating segment. Revenue from the Life Sciences Services reportable segment is primarily comprised of Life Sciences Services revenue, but also includes certain immaterial revenue from the sale of accessories that constitute Life Sciences Products revenue. The Company’s Life Sciences Products reportable segment manufactures and sells cryogenic systems, such as freezers and cryogenic dewars and related ancillary accessories used in the storage and transport of life science commodities through direct sales or a distribution network. Revenue from this reportable segment is exclusively Life Sciences Products revenue. See Note 19 – Segment Reporting to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for additional information about our segments.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., or U.S. GAAP. While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements, we have identified the policies and estimates below as being critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. These policies require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgements, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The impact of and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations are discussed throughout “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” including in the “Results of Operations” section, where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions, and judgements are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments, or conditions.
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and most demanding of our judgment. We consider the following policies and estimates to be critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements and the uncertainties associated with the complex judgments made by us that could impact our results of operations, financial position and cash flows: Revenue Recognition, Discontinued

Operations, Intangible Assets and Goodwill, Convertible Senior Notes, Stock-based Compensation, and Income Taxes. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our accompanying consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when control is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.
Performance Obligations
At contract inception, an assessment of the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers is performed and a performance obligation is identified for each distinct promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services). To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. Revenue is recognized when our performance obligation has been met. The Company considers control to have transferred upon delivery because the Company has a present right to payment at that time since the Company has satisfied its performance obligations related to the successful delivery. In instances where the customer has elected to use their own courier services, revenue is recognized upon delivery of the shipper to the customer.
For arrangements under which the Company provides biological specimen storage services and logistics support and management to the customer, the Company satisfies its performance obligations as those services are performed whereby the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of such services under the agreement.
Revenue generated from short-term logistics and engineering consulting services provided to customers is recognized when the Company satisfies the contractually defined performance obligations. When a contract includes multiple performance obligations, the contract price is allocated among the performance obligations based upon the stand-alone selling prices. Approved contract modifications are accounted for as either a separate contract or as part of the existing contract depending on the nature of the modification.
Our performance obligations on our orders and under the terms of agreements with customers are generally satisfied within one year from a given reporting date and, therefore, we omit disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations on open orders.
Shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers are accounted for as costs to fulfill our promise to transfer the associated products pursuant to the accounting policy election allowed under Topic 606 and are not considered a separate performance obligation to our customers. Accordingly, the Company records amounts billed for shipping and handling as a component of revenue. Shipping and handling fees and costs are included in cost of revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Revenues are recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental agencies.
Discontinued Operations
We review the presentation of planned business dispositions in the consolidated financial statements based on the available information and events that have occurred. The review consists of evaluating whether the business meets the definition of a component for which the operations and cash flows are clearly distinguishable from the other components of the business, and if so, whether it is anticipated that after the disposal the cash flows of the component would be eliminated from continuing operations and whether the disposition represents a strategic shift that has a major effect on operations and financial results. In addition, we evaluate whether the business has met the criteria as a business held for sale. In order for a planned disposition to be classified as a business held for sale, the established criteria must be met as of the reporting date, including an active program to market the business and the expected disposition of the business within one year.
32
Table of Contents
Planned business dispositions are presented as discontinued operations when all the criteria described above are met. For those divestitures that qualify as discontinued operations, all comparative periods presented are reclassified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, the results of operations of a discontinued operation are reclassified to income or loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, for all periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations. Results of discontinued operations include all revenues and expenses directly derived from such businesses; general corporate overhead is not allocated to discontinued operations. These reclassifications have no impact on the Company’s previously reported consolidated net income (loss).
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Intangible assets
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are comprised of trade name/trademarks acquired in the Company’s acquisitions, and are tested for impairment annually using a relief from royalty method that relies on estimates of future revenues, royalty rates, and discount rates. If the asset is not found to be recoverable, it is written down to the estimated fair value. As a result of an interim impairment assessment performed as of June 30, 2024, we recorded a $9.0 million impairment charge related to trademarks for our MVE reporting unit, and a $0.3 million impairment charge related to the write-off of Cell&Co’s trade name that is no longer in use as a result of the Company’s global rebranding initiative, see Note 10 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional information. The Company has performed a quantitative impairment assessment in the fourth quarter of 2025 and concluded that there has been no impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets for the periods presented.
Intangible assets with a definite life are comprised of patents, trademarks, software development costs and the intangible assets acquired in the Company’s acquisitions which include a non-compete agreement, technology, customer relationships, trade name/trademark, agent network, order backlog, developed technology and land use rights. Intangible assets with a definite life are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, see Note 10 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional information. The Company uses the following valuation methodologies to value the significant intangible assets with a definite life acquired: income approach for customer relationships, replacement cost for agent network and software, and relief from royalty for trade name/trademarks and developed technology. The Company capitalizes costs of obtaining patents and trademarks, which are amortized, using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of five years once the patent or trademark has been issued.
The Company evaluates the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets with a definite life whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. The Company measures the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including the discounted value of estimated future cash flows. The evaluation of asset impairment requires the Company to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts. The Company has performed a quantitative impairment assessment in the fourth quarter of 2025 and concluded that there has been no impairment of our intangible assets with a definite life for the periods presented.
Goodwill
The Company evaluates goodwill on an annual basis in the fourth quarter or more frequently if management believes indicators of impairment exist. Such indicators could include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. For each reporting unit being tested, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount and then recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value up to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. As a result of our 2023 quantitative assessment, we concluded that goodwill related to the MVE reporting unit was impaired as of December 31, 2023, and recorded an impairment charge of $49.6 million in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023. As a result of an interim impairment assessment performed as of June 30, 2024, we concluded that the goodwill related to the MVE reporting unit was further impaired, and recorded an impairment charge of $54.6 million related to full impairment of the goodwill related to the MVE reporting unit in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024, see
33
Table of Contents
Note 10 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional information. As a result of our 2025 quantitative assessment, we concluded that goodwill is not impaired as of December 31, 2025.
Management will continue to monitor the reporting units for changes in the business environment that could impact the recoverability in future periods. The recoverability of goodwill is dependent upon the continued growth of revenue and cash flows from the Company’s business activities. Examples of events or circumstances that could result in changes to the underlying key assumptions and judgments used in our goodwill impairment tests, and ultimately impact the estimated fair value of the Company’s reporting units include adverse macroeconomic or geopolitical conditions; and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates impacting the results of operations and the value of foreign assets and liabilities. While historical performance and current expectations have resulted in fair values of our reporting units in excess of carrying values, if our assumptions are not realized, it is possible that an impairment charge may need to be recorded in the future.
Convertible Senior Notes
The Convertible Senior Notes are accounted for in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASC 470-20”) and ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”). Under ASC 815-40, to qualify for equity classification (or nonbifurcation, if embedded) the instrument (or embedded feature) must be both (1) indexed to the issuer’s stock and (2) meet the requirements of the equity classification guidance. Based upon the Company’s analysis, it was determined the Convertible Senior Notes do contain embedded features indexed to its own stock, but do not meet the requirements for bifurcation and recognition as derivatives, and therefore do not need to be separately recognized. Accordingly, the proceeds received from the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes were recorded as a single liability measured at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets.
Stock-based Compensation
We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock option awards on the grant date. The expected option life assumption is estimated based on the simplified method. Accordingly, the Company has utilized the average of the contractual term of the options and the weighted average vesting period for all options to calculate the expected option term. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of our employee stock options. The expected volatility is based on the average of the historical volatility and the implied volatility of our stock commensurate with the expected life of the stock-based award. We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
We recognize stock-based compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized only for those awards that ultimately vest.
Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided, if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We account for uncertain tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit, new audit activity and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. We evaluate our tax position on a quarterly basis. We also accrue for potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

We continue to lead the way in providing advanced temperature-controlled supply chain solutions designed to support the development of cell and gene therapies and our future growth.
Life Sciences Products revenue increased by $5.0 million, or 6.6%, from $74.7 million to $79.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024. Life Sciences Products revenue consists primarily of revenue from our portfolio of cryogenic stainless-steel freezers, aluminum dewars and related ancillary equipment used in the storage and transport of life sciences commodities, which includes the rapidly growing CGT market through a global network of distributors and direct client relationships. The increase in Life Sciences Products revenue was primarily driven by increased demand from customers in the EMEA and APAC regions and strong demand from animal health customers in the Americas. Revenue from the support of commercial cell and gene therapies included in Life Sciences Products revenue was $3.5 million and $1.8 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Gross margin and cost of revenue. Gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2025 was 47.1% of total revenue, as compared to 44.4% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. Cost of total revenue increased $6.0 million to $93.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $87.1 million in the same period in 2024.
Gross margin of Life Sciences Services revenue increased to 48.8% from 46.9% for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year, primarily as a result of a favorable revenue mix shift toward higher-margin offerings, including BioServices and BioStorage and the Company’s cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2024 and refined throughout 2025 as part of its pathway to profitability strategy. Our cost of services revenue was primarily comprised of freight charges, facility expenses, payroll and associated expenses related to our global logistics and supply chain centers, depreciation expenses of our Cryoport Express® Shippers and supplies and consumables used for our solutions.
Gross margin of Life Sciences Products revenue increased to 45.2% from 41.7% for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year, primarily driven by manufacturing efficiency improvements within the MVE Biological Solutions operating segment. Our cost of products revenue was primarily comprised of materials, direct and indirect labor, inbound freight charges, purchasing and receiving, inspection, and distribution and warehousing of inventory. In addition, shop supplies, facility maintenance costs and depreciation expense for assets used in the manufacturing process were included in cost of products revenue.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses include the costs associated with selling our products and services and costs required to support our marketing efforts including legal, accounting, patent, shareholder services, amortization of intangible assets and other administrative functions.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, SG&A expenses decreased by $7.0 million, or 6.4% as compared to the same period in 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by decreases in stock compensation of $5.4 million, contingent consideration of $4.3 million, and consulting costs of $2.1 million. These decreases were offset by increases facility and other overhead allocations of $3.6 million, and wages and associated employee costs of $2.2 million.
Engineering and development expenses. Engineering and development expenses decreased by $0.7 million, or 3.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $1.1 million in development costs, consulting and prototype expenses and a decrease of $0.6 million in stock compensation expense. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $1.0 million in wages and associated employee costs to add software development and engineering resources. We continually strive to improve and expand the features of our portfolio of temperature-controlled services and products. Our primary developments are directed towards facilitating the safe, reliable and efficient transport and storage of life science commodities through innovative and technology-based solutions. This includes significantly enhancing our Cryoportal® Digital Logistics Management Platform and related technology solutions as well as developments to expand our Cryoport Express® and shipper fleets. In addition, engineering and development efforts are also focused on MVE Biological Solutions’ portfolio of advanced cryogenic stainless-steel freezers, aluminum dewars and related ancillary equipment used in the storage and transport of life sciences commodities. We supplement our internal engineering and development resources with subject matter experts and consultants to enhance our capabilities and shorten development cycles.
Impairment loss. As a result of the interim impairment assessment performed as of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $63.8 million, primarily related to full impairment charge of goodwill related to the MVE Biological Solutions reporting unit.

Investment Income. Investment income decreased by $0.1 million, for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year.
Interest expense. Interest expense decreased by $1.6 million, from $4.0 million to $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year due to a decrease in interest on the convertible senior notes and amortization of the related debt discount as a result of the repayment of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes upon maturity in June 2025.
Gain on extinguishment of debt. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repurchased $185.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes for a repurchase price of $163.1 million in cash, plus accrued and unpaid interest, resulting in a net gain of $18.5 million, which includes the write off of $2.7 million of unamortized debt issuance costs and $0.7 million of transaction costs.
Other income (expense), net. The increase in other income (expense), net for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year is primarily due to a decrease of $4.3 million in short-term investment net unrealized loss, a decrease of $2.1 million in current period foreign currency loss, and $1.5 million increase in non-recurring income, offset by a decrease of $2.5 million for currency revaluation.
Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes increased by $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in the prior year, resulting in effective tax rates of negative 5.6% and negative 0.3%, respectively. The increase in tax expense and the decrease in the effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year is due to changes in the valuation allowances on our foreign operations, a tax benefit from the reduction of the deferred tax liability on indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the impairment and an increase in our domestic losses which resulted in no additional tax benefit. The effective tax rate of negative 5.6% for the year ended December 31, 2025, differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to changes in the valuation allowance that we maintain against our deferred tax assets, the expiration of a portion of our US federal net operating loss carryforwards due to IRC Section 382 and the relative mix of income earned by certain foreign subsidiaries being taxed at different rates than the U.S. federal statuary rate.
Paid-in-kind dividend on Series C convertible preferred stock. The paid-in-kind dividend relates to the private placement of Series C Preferred Stock with Blackstone.
Discontinued operations. Revenue from discontinued operations decreased by $39.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the prior year. The Company recorded two quarters of revenue from discontinued operations in 2025, compared with a full year of revenue in 2024. Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income tax increased by $122.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, due to the divestiture of the CRYOPDP business in the second quarter of 2025.
Net income (loss). Net income (loss) increased by $193.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year. This increase was primarily due to the gain on divestiture of the CRYOPDP business of $117.0 million recorded in 2025, and the impairment loss of $63.8 million recorded in 2024, which did not reoccur in 2025.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations increased by $12.0 million from a negative $17.8 million to a negative $5.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year, primarily due to gross margin expansion and reduced operating expenses resulting from the Company’s cost reduction initiatives. Adjusted operating costs declined as a result of headcount reductions, lower contractor utilization, project reprioritization, and tighter expense management across the organization. These actions collectively contributed to a meaningful year-over-year improvement in adjusted EBITDA as the Company continued to align its cost structure with current industry conditions and position the business for sustainable profitability.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We provide adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, a non-GAAP financial measure, as a supplemental measure to U.S. GAAP measures regarding our operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as loss from continuing operations adjusted for net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration costs, cost reduction initiatives, investment income, unrealized gain or loss on investments, foreign currency gain or loss, net gain on extinguishment of debt, impairment loss, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and charges or gains resulting from non-recurring events, as applicable.
Management believes adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations provides a useful measure of our operating results, a meaningful comparison with historical results and with the results of other companies, and insight into our ongoing operating performance. Further, management and our board of directors utilize adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to gain a better understanding of our comparative operating performance from period-to-period and as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is also a significant performance measure used by us in connection with our incentive compensation programs. Management believes adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, when read in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP financials, is useful to investors because it provides a basis for meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results, including results of operations, against investor and analyst financial models, identifying trends in our underlying business and performing related trend analyses, and it provides a better understanding of how management plans and measures our underlying business.
A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to loss from continuing operations, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is presented below.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $250.5 million, short-term investments of $160.7 million and working capital of $257.2 million. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses for the foreseeable future and to incur operating losses in the near term while we make investments in new supply chain initiatives, geographic expansion and technology to support our anticipated growth. Historically, we have financed our operations primarily through sales of equity securities and debt instruments. Following the divestiture of the CRYOPDP business, we also expect to use the net proceeds from the divestiture for general corporate purposes.

The Company’s management recognizes that the Company may need to obtain additional capital to fund its operations and potential acquisitions until sustained profitable operations are achieved. Additional funding plans may include obtaining additional capital through equity and/or debt funding sources. No assurance can be given that additional capital, if needed, will be available when required or upon terms acceptable to the Company. The Company’s management believes that, based on its current plans and assumptions, which include the repayment of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes at maturity, the current cash and cash equivalents on hand, short-term investments, together with projected cash flows, will satisfy our operational and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Operating activities
For the year ended December 31, 2025, our operating activities used $8.6 million of cash, reflecting the net income of $78.3 million offset by non-cash gains of $73.2 million primarily comprised of $117.0 million of gain on divested business and $5.2 million change in contingent consideration, which was partially offset by $27.7 million of depreciation and amortization, $11.0 million of stock-based compensation, $6.6 million of non-cash operating lease expense, and $2.2 million of realized loss on available-for-sale investments. Also contributing to the cash used in operating activities, excluding non-cash items, was an increase in accounts receivable of $6.5 million, a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $5.0 million, a decrease in accounts payable and other accrued expenses of $3.5 million, and an increase in inventories of $2.2 million, which were partially offset by an increase in accrued compensation and related expenses of $1.9 million and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1.4 million.
Investing activities
Net cash provided by investing activities of $250.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to the proceeds from the divestiture of the CRYOPDP business of $210.2 million and the maturity of short-term investments of $59.6 million. These proceeds were partially offset by facility expansions (including leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment) and additional purchases of Cryoport Express® Shippers, Smart Pak IITM Condition Monitoring Systems, freezers and computer equipment for $16.4 million, software development costs of $1.8 million, and patent and trademark costs of $1.2 million.
Financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $21.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily as a result of $14.3 million paid for the repayment of 2025 Convertible Senior Notes and $10.0 million paid for the repurchase of common stock, partially offset by proceeds of $4.0 million from the exercise of stock options.

Repurchase Program
In March 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the 2022 Repurchase Program through December 31, 2025, authorizing the repurchase of common stock and/or convertible senior notes in the amount of up to $100.0 million from time to time, on the open market or otherwise, in such quantities, at such prices, and in such manner as determined by the Company’s management at its discretion. The 2022 Repurchase Program expired on December 31, 2025 pursuant to its terms.
In August 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the 2024 Repurchase Program through December 31, 2027, authorizing the repurchase of common stock and/or convertible senior notes in the amount of up to $200.0 million from time to time, on the open market or otherwise, in such quantities, at such prices, and in such manner as determined by the Company’s management at its discretion. The authorized amount under the 2024 Repurchase Program was in addition to the 2022 Repurchase Program and did not modify the 2022 Repurchase Program. The size and timing of any repurchases under the 2024 Repurchase Program will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, general market and economic conditions, and applicable legal requirements.
In July 2024, May 2024 and September 2023, the Company repurchased $15.0 million, $10.0 million and $31.3 million, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes for a cash repurchase price of $12.9 million, $8.7 million and $25.0 million, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The repurchases were made pursuant to the 2022 Repurchase Program.
In August 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $160.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes for a cash repurchase price of $141.6 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The repurchase was made pursuant to the 2024 Repurchase Program.
There were no repurchases of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes during the year ended December 31, 2025.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company purchased 1,340,608 shares of its common stock under the Repurchase Programs at an average price of $7.45 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $10.0 million. These shares were returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock. All share repurchases were made using cash resources and are reported in the period based on the settlement date of the applicable repurchase.
There were no shares of common stock repurchased during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company has approximately $186.2 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes outstanding and has approximately $63.9 million of repurchase authorization available under the 2024 Repurchase Program. For additional information about the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes, see Note 12 – Convertible Senior Notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk for the effect of interest rate changes, foreign currency fluctuations, and changes in the market values of our investments.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio and our short-term and long-term debt. Our short-term and long-term debt is carried at amortized cost and fluctuations in interest rates do not impact our consolidated financial statements. However, the fair value of our debt, which pays interest at a fixed rate, will generally fluctuate with movements of interest rates, increasing when interest rates are declining and declining when interest rates are increasing. We invest our excess cash in high investment grade money market funds and investment grade short to intermediate-term fixed income securities. Fixed income securities may have their fair market value adversely affected due to a rise in interest rates, and we may suffer losses if forced to sell securities that have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates. As of December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes was $176.6 million. For additional information about the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes, see Note 12 – Convertible Senior Notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”.

Foreign Exchange Risk
We operate in the United States and other foreign countries, which creates exposure to foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Net sales and related expenses generated from our international business are primarily denominated in the functional currencies of the corresponding subsidiaries and primarily include Euros, British Pounds, and Chinese Yuan. The results of operations of, and certain of our intercompany balances associated with, our internationally focused business are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Upon consolidation, as foreign exchange rates vary, revenue and other operating results may differ materially from expectations and we may record material gain or losses on the remeasurement of intercompany balances. For example, for the year ended December 31, 2025, revenue from our international business, which accounted for 18% of our consolidated revenues, increased by $0.9 million in comparison with the same period in the prior year as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates is derived by applying the average currency rates for the same period of the prior year to the current period revenue.
We have foreign exchange risk related to foreign-denominated cash and cash equivalents. Based on the foreign-denominated cash balance as of December 31, 2025 of $31.9 million, an assumed 5%, 10%, and 20% adverse change to foreign exchange would result in declines of $1.6 million, $3.2 million, and $6.4 million, respectively, recorded to “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)”, a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
We have foreign exchange risk related to our long and short-term foreign-denominated intercompany loan balances. Based on the short-term intercompany loan balances as of December 31, 2025, an assumed 5%, 10%, and 20% adverse change to foreign exchange would result in losses of $1.6 million, $3.2 million, and $6.4 million, respectively, reported as “Other income (expense), net”.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
Our annual consolidated financial statements are included in Part IV, Item 15 of this Form 10-K and are incorporated into this Item 8 by reference.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The term “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) refers to the controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2025.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is supported by written policies and procedures that:
| ● | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; |
| ● | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and |
| ● | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In connection with the preparation of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements, management of the Company has undertaken an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Cryoport, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cryoport, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 5, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Trademark Valuation— MVE — Refer to Note 10 in the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are comprised of trademarks and are tested for impairment annually using a relief from royalty method that relies on estimates of the future revenue growth rate, royalty rate, and discount rate. If the asset is not found to be recoverable, it is written down to the estimated fair value. Based on the quantitative impairment assessment performed in the fourth quarter of 2025, there has been no impairment recognized for indefinite-lived intangible assets for the current period.
We identified the trademark for MVE as a critical audit matter because of the significant judgments made by management to estimate the fair value of the MVE trademark that are affected by future market and economic conditions. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions.
F-2
Table of Contents
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the Company’s significant assumptions and estimates related to the valuation of the MVE trademark included the following, among others:
| ● | We tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s trademark impairment evaluation, including those over the determination of the revenue growth rate, royalty rate, and discount rate. |
| ● | We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s revenue growth rate forecasts through inquiry of management and by comparing the forecasts to: |
| – | Historical revenues. |
| – | Internal communications to management and the Board of Directors. |
| – | Forecasted information included in analyst and industry reports for the Company. |
| ● | With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate and royalty rate by: |
| – | Testing the source information underlying the determination of the discount and royalty rates and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations. |
| – | Developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rate and royalty rate selected by management. |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Cryoport, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Cryoport, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, of the Company and our report dated March 5, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Nature of the Business
We are a leading global provider of integrated, temperature-controlled supply chain solutions for the life sciences, with a strong focus on supporting the rapidly growing cell and gene therapy market (“CGT market”). Our solutions are purpose-built to support a broad range of global life sciences markets, including biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies, the animal health markets, reproductive medicine, academic institutions, research, and government agencies. Our solutions help our customers ensure the safe, compliant storage, handling, and delivery of high value, temperature sensitive biological materials, including cell and gene therapies and immunotherapies.
On June 11, 2025, the Company completed the previously disclosed divestiture of its specialty courier CRYOPDP business to designated affiliates of DHL Supply Chain International Holding B.V. (“DHL”) for $
The Transaction represents a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and as a result, the results of the CRYOPDP business were classified as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations and excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented. Results of discontinued operations include all revenues and expenses directly derived from the CRYOPDP business. The CRYOPDP business was classified as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024. See Note 5 – Discontinued Operations for additional information about the divestiture of the CRYOPDP business.
The Company is a Nevada corporation and its common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market exchange under the ticker symbol “CYRX.”
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cryoport, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Our cash and cash equivalents represent demand deposits, and money market funds which are readily convertible into cash, have maturities of
Short-Term Investments
Our investments in equity securities consist of mutual funds with readily determinable fair values which are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.
F-10
Table of Contents
Investments in debt securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
Gains and losses are recognized when realized. When we have determined that an other than temporary decline in fair value has occurred, the amount related to a credit loss is recognized in earnings. Gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method.
Short-term investments are classified as current assets even though maturities may extend beyond one year because they represent investments of cash available for operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from estimated amounts. The Company’s significant estimates include expected future cash flows including growth rates, discount rates, terminal values and other assumptions and estimates, including valuation multiples utilized in the market approach used in impairment assessments, estimated fair values of intangible assets and goodwill, intangible asset useful lives and amortization methods, equity-based instruments, tax reserves and recoverability of the Company’s net deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance.
Although the Company regularly assesses these estimates, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty, and, accordingly the Company’s accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment.
Credit Losses
The Company estimates and records a provision for its expected credit losses related to its financial instruments, including its trade receivables. The Company considers historical collection rates, the current financial status of its customers, macroeconomic factors, and other industry-specific factors when evaluating for current expected credit losses. Forward-looking information is also considered in the evaluation of current expected credit losses. However, because of the short time to the expected receipt of accounts receivable, the Company believes that the carrying value, net of excepted losses, approximates fair value and therefore, relies more on historical and current analysis of such financial instruments, including its trade receivables.
To determine the provision for credit losses for accounts receivable, the Company has disaggregated its accounts receivable by class of customer at the business component level, as the Company determined that risk profile of its customers is consistent based on the type and industry in which they operate, mainly in the life sciences industry. Each business component is analyzed for estimated credit losses individually. In doing so, the Company establishes a historical loss matrix, based on the previous collections of accounts receivable by the age of such receivables, and evaluates the current and forecasted financial position of its customers, as available. Further, the Company considers macroeconomic factors and the status of the life sciences industry to estimate if there are current expected credit losses within its trade receivables based on the trends and the Company’s expectation of the future status of such economic and industry-specific factors. Also, specific allowance amounts are established based on review of outstanding invoices to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default.
Discontinued Operations
We review the presentation of planned business dispositions in the consolidated financial statements based on the available information and events that have occurred. The review consists of evaluating whether the business meets the definition of a component for which the operations and cash flows are clearly distinguishable from the other components of the business, and if so, whether it is anticipated that after the disposal the cash flows of the component would be eliminated from continuing operations and whether the disposition represents a strategic shift that has a major effect on operations and financial results. In addition, we evaluate whether the business has met the criteria as a business held for sale. In order for a planned disposition to be classified as a business held for sale, the
F-11
Table of Contents
established criteria must be met as of the reporting date, including an active program to market the business and the expected disposition of the business within one year.
Planned business dispositions are presented as discontinued operations when all the criteria described above are met. For those divestitures that qualify as discontinued operations, all comparative periods presented are reclassified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, the results of operations of a discontinued operation are reclassified to income or loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, for all periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations. Results of discontinued operations include all revenues and expenses directly derived from such businesses; general corporate overhead is not allocated to discontinued operations. These reclassifications have no impact on the Company’s previously reported consolidated net income (loss).
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, finance lease liabilities, notes payable, contingent consideration, the Company’s
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. From time to time, we maintain cash, cash equivalent and short-term investment balances in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”). Primarily all of our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 2025 were in excess of amounts insured by the FDIC and SIPC. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of these institutions to limit its concentration risk exposure. We manage such risks in our portfolio by investing in highly liquid, highly rated instruments, and limit investing in long-term maturity instruments.
Our investment policy requires that purchased instruments in marketable securities may only be in highly rated instruments, which are primarily U.S. Treasury bills or treasury-backed securities, and also limits our investment in securities of any single issuer.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventories are reviewed periodically for slow-moving or obsolete status. The Company writes down the carrying value of its inventories to reflect situations in which the cost of inventories is not expected to be recovered. Once established, write-downs of inventories are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the obsolete or excess inventories. Raw materials and finished goods include material costs less adjustments for obsolete or excess inventories. The Company evaluates the current level of inventories considering historical trends and other factors, such as selling prices and costs of completion, disposal and transportation, and based on the evaluation, records adjustments to reflect inventories at net realizable value. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly from actual results if future economic conditions, customer demand, competition or other relevant factors differ from expectations. These estimates require us to make assessments about future demand for the Company’s products in order to categorize the status of such inventories items as slow-moving, obsolete or in excess-of-need. These estimates are subject to the ongoing accuracy of the Company’s forecasts of market conditions, industry trends, competition and other factors.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which is generally three to

Betterments, renewals and extraordinary repairs that extend the lives of the assets are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating leases are included in ROU assets, current operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, current finance lease liabilities, and long-term finance lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
Lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date calculated using our incremental borrowing rate applicable to the lease asset, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. ROU assets also include any lease payments made at or before lease commencement and exclude any lease incentives received. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s leases do not contain any residual value guarantees. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all its leases.
Goodwill
The Company evaluates goodwill on an annual basis in the fourth quarter or more frequently if management believes indicators of impairment exist. Such indicators could include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. For each reporting unit being tested, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount and then recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value up to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. As a result of our 2023 quantitative assessment, we concluded that goodwill related to the MVE reporting unit was impaired as of December 31, 2023, and recorded an impairment charge of $
Management will continue to monitor the reporting units for changes in the business environment that could impact the recoverability in future periods. The recoverability of goodwill is dependent upon the continued growth of revenue and cash flows from the Company’s business activities. Examples of events or circumstances that could result in changes to the underlying key assumptions and judgments used in our goodwill impairment tests, and ultimately impact the estimated fair value of the Company’s reporting units include adverse macroeconomic or geopolitical conditions; and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates impacting the results of operations and the value of foreign assets and liabilities. While historical performance and current expectations have resulted in fair values of our reporting units in excess of carrying values, if our assumptions are not realized, it is possible that an impairment charge may need to be recorded in the future.
Intangible Assets
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are comprised of trade name/trademarks acquired in the Company’s acquisitions, and are tested for impairment annually using a relief from royalty method that relies on estimates of future revenues, royalty rates, and discount rates. If the asset is not found to be recoverable, it is written down to the estimated fair value. As a result of an interim impairment assessment performed as of June 30, 2024, we recorded a $

performed a quantitative impairment assessment in the fourth quarter of 2025 and concluded that there has been
Intangible assets with a definite life are comprised of patents, trademarks, software development costs and the intangible assets acquired in the Company’s acquisitions which include a non-compete agreement, technology, customer relationships, trade name/trademark, agent network, order backlog, developed technology and land use rights. Intangible assets with a definite life are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, see Note 10 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional information. The Company uses the following valuation methodologies to value the significant intangible assets with a definite life acquired: income approach for customer relationships, replacement cost for agent network and software, and relief from royalty for trade name/trademarks and developed technology. The Company capitalizes costs of obtaining patents and trademarks, which are amortized, using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of
The Company evaluates the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets with a definite life whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. The Company measures the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including the discounted value of estimated future cash flows. The evaluation of asset impairment requires the Company to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts. The Company has performed a quantitative impairment assessment in the fourth quarter of 2025 and concluded that there has been
Other Long-lived Assets
If indicators of impairment exist, we assess the recoverability of the affected long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows. If impairment is indicated, we measure the amount of such impairment by comparing the fair value to the carrying value. We believe the future cash flows to be received from the long-lived assets will exceed the assets’ carrying value, and accordingly, we have not recognized any impairment losses through December 31, 2025.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs represent costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt instruments and equity financings. Deferred financing costs related to the issuance of debt are amortized over the term of the financing instrument using the effective interest method and are presented in the consolidated balance sheets as an offset against the related debt. Offering costs from equity financings are netted against the gross proceeds received from the equity financings.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provision of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes”, or ASC 740. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. Based on the weight of available evidence, the Company’s management has determined that it is not more likely than not that the U.S. based net deferred tax assets will be realized. Therefore, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its U.S. based net deferred tax assets. With respect to the foreign based deferred tax assets, the Company’s management has reviewed these deferred tax assets on a jurisdictional basis. Based on the weight of each jurisdiction’s evidence available, the Company’s management has made separate determinations for each foreign jurisdiction regarding whether it is more likely than not that a net deferred tax asset within a particular

jurisdiction will be realized. The Company has recorded full valuation allowances in jurisdictions where deferred tax assets are not deemed more likely than not to be realized.
The Company has recorded a net deferred tax liability in jurisdictions where taxable temporary differences associated with indefinite-lived intangible assets do not support the realization of deferred tax assets with finite carryforward periods. In addition, the Company has recorded a net deferred tax liability in jurisdictions where taxable temporary differences exceed deductible temporary differences.
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company has recorded immaterial accruals for interest and/or penalties on its consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and has recorded immaterial amounts of interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., in various U.S. state jurisdictions and in various foreign countries. As of December 31, 2025, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal examinations for years before 2022 or for California franchise and income tax examinations for years before 2021. However, to the extent allowed by law, the taxing authorities may have the right to examine net operating losses (“NOLs”) carried forward into a tax year and make adjustments up to the amount of the NOLs utilized. The Company is not currently under examination in either the U.S. federal or any U.S. state jurisdictions. Our foreign subsidiaries are generally subject to examination for three years following the year in which the tax obligation originated. The years subject to audit may be extended if the entity substantially understates corporate income tax. The Company does not have any foreign subsidiaries currently under audit by their local taxing authorities.
On July 4, 2025, Public Law 119-21 (“PL 119-21”), which contains a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, was signed into law in the U.S. PL 119-21 eliminated the requirements to capitalize and amortize domestic research and experimentation costs (“R&E costs”), while also allowing for the recovery of the unamortized balance of these R&E costs as of December 31, 2024, immediately in 2025 or over a 2 year period starting in 2025. We have elected to recover the full balance of these unamortized costs immediately in 2025. PL 119-21 also made significant changes to the deductibility of business interest expense, bonus depreciation, GILTI and FDII. We have evaluated the full impacts of these changes, as well as other changes within PL 119-21, and included any impacts in our December 31, 2025 financial statements.
On August 16, 2022, the United States enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which imposes a 1% excise tax on publicly traded U.S. corporations for the fair market value of any stock repurchased during the tax year that exceeds $1.0 million, with certain specific exceptions. The excise tax is effective for transactions occurring in taxable years after December 31, 2023. The Company has recorded $

Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when control is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.
F-15
Table of Contents
Performance Obligations
At contract inception, an assessment of the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers is performed and a performance obligation is identified for each distinct promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services). To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. Revenue is recognized when our performance obligation has been met. The Company considers control to have transferred upon delivery because the Company has a present right to payment at that time since the Company has satisfied its performance obligations related to the successful delivery. In instances where the customer has elected to use their own courier services, revenue is recognized upon delivery of the shipper to the customer.
For arrangements under which the Company provides biological specimen storage services and logistics support and management to the customer, the Company satisfies its performance obligations as those services are performed whereby the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of such services under the agreement.
Revenue generated from short-term logistics and engineering consulting services provided to customers is recognized when the Company satisfies the contractually defined performance obligations. When a contract includes multiple performance obligations, the contract price is allocated among the performance obligations based upon the stand-alone selling prices. Approved contract modifications are accounted for as either a separate contract or as part of the existing contract depending on the nature of the modification.
Our performance obligations on our orders and under the terms of agreements with customers are generally satisfied within one year from a given reporting date and, therefore,
Shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers are accounted for as costs to fulfill our promise to transfer the associated products pursuant to the accounting policy election allowed under Topic 606 and are not considered a separate performance obligation to our customers. Accordingly, the Company records amounts billed for shipping and handling as a component of revenue. Shipping and handling fees and costs are included in cost of revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Revenues are recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental agencies.
Significant Payment Terms
Pursuant to the Company’s contracts with its customers, amounts billed for services or products delivered by the Company are generally due and payable in full within 15 to 60 days from the date of the invoice (except for any amounts disputed by the customer in good faith). Accordingly, the Company determined that its contracts with customers do not include extended payment terms or a significant financing component.
Variable Consideration
When a contract includes variable consideration, the Company evaluates the estimate of the variable consideration to determine whether the estimate needs to be constrained. Variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available. Variable consideration estimates are updated at each reporting date. Revenues are recorded net of variable consideration, such as discounts and allowances.

Warranties
The Company provides product warranties with varying terms and durations for some of its products. The Company estimates product warranty costs and accrues for these costs as products are sold with a charge to cost of sales. Factors considered in estimating warranty costs include historical and projected warranty claims, historical and projected cost-per-claim, and knowledge of specific product issues that are outside of typical experience. Warranty accruals are evaluated and adjusted as necessary based on actual claims experience and changes in future claim and cost estimates.
Product warranty accrued liabilities totaled $
Incremental Direct Costs
Incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract (sales commissions) are expensed when incurred when the amortization period of the asset that would have been recognized is one year or less; otherwise, incremental contract costs are recognized as an asset and amortized over time as promised goods and services are transferred to a customer. Incremental direct costs were not material for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Contract Assets
Typically, we invoice the customer and recognize revenue once we have satisfied our performance obligation. Accordingly, our contract assets comprise accounts receivable, which are recognized when payment is unconditional and only the passage of time is required before payment is due. Generally, we do not have material amounts of other contract assets since revenue is recognized as control of goods is transferred or as services are performed.
Nature of Goods and Services
The Company provides Cryoport Express® Shippers to its customers and charges a fee in exchange for the use of the Cryoport Express® Shipper under long-term service agreements with customers. The Company retains title to the Cryoport Express® Shippers and directs the use of the Cryoport Express® Shipper until delivery. At the culmination of the customer’s shipping cycle, the Cryoport Express® Shipper is returned to the Company.
The Company recognizes revenue for the use of the Cryoport Express® Shippers at the time of the delivery of the Cryoport Express® Shipper to the end user of the enclosed materials, and at the time that collectability is probable.
The Company also provides vacuum insulated aluminum dewars and cryogenic freezers systems to its customers. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies performance obligations by transferring the equipment to a customer, and at the time that collectability is probable.
The Company also provides global temperature-controlled logistics services, support and management. Revenue is recognized upon completion for these services and at the time that collectability is probable.
The Company also provides comprehensive and integrated temperature-controlled biostorage solutions to customers in the life sciences industry and charges a fee under long-term service agreements with customers. These services include (1) biological specimen cryopreservation storage and maintenance, (2) archiving, monitoring, tracking, receipt and delivery of samples, (3) transport of frozen biological specimens to and from customer locations, and (4) management of incoming and outgoing biological specimens. The Company recognizes revenue for its biostorage solutions as services are rendered over time and at the time that collectability is probable.
The Company also provides short-term logistics and engineering consulting services to some customers, with fees tied to the completion of contractually defined services. We recognize revenue from these services over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of these services as they are performed.

Table of Contents
A significant portion of our revenues are covered under long-term agreements. We have determined that individual Statements of Work or Scope of Work (“SOW”), whose terms and conditions taken with a Master Services Agreement (“MSA”), create the Topic 606 contracts which are generally short-term in nature (e.g., 15-day shipping cycle) for the Cryoport Express® solutions and up to 12 months for biostorage solutions. Our agreements (including SOWs) generally do not have multiple performance obligations and, therefore, do not require an allocation of a single price amongst multiple goods or services. Prices under these agreements are generally fixed.
Cost of Service Revenues
Our cost of service revenues is primarily comprised of freight charges, payroll and associated expenses related to our global logistics and supply chain centers, depreciation expenses of our Cryoport Express® Shippers and supplies and consumables used for our solutions.
Cost of Product Revenues
Our cost of product revenues is primarily comprised of materials, direct and indirect labor, inbound freight charges, purchasing and receiving, inspection, and distribution and warehousing of inventory. In addition, shop supplies, facility maintenance costs and depreciation expense for assets used in the manufacturing process are included in cost of product revenues.
Engineering and Development Expenses
Expenditures relating to engineering and development are expensed in the period incurred to engineering and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Acquisition Costs
Acquisition costs consist of legal, accounting, third-party valuations, and other due diligence costs related to our acquisitions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2024-02, “Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concept Statements,” which amends the Codification to remove references to various FASB Concepts Statements and impacts a variety of Topics in the Codification. The amendments apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance, but in most instances the references removed are extraneous and are not required to understand or apply the guidance. Generally, the amendments in ASU 2024-02 are not intended to result in significant accounting changes for most entities. ASU 2024-02 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities may apply the guidance either retrospectively to the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or prospectively to all new or modified transactions recognized on or after the date of adoption. We adopted ASU 2024-02 on January 1, 2025. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards,” which clarifies how an entity determines whether a profits interest or similar award is within the scope of Topic 718, or is not a share-based payment arrangement and therefore within the scope of other guidance. ASU 2024-01 adds an example with multiple fact patterns and illustrates how an entity evaluates common terms and characteristics of profits interests and similar awards to reach a conclusion about whether an award meets the conditions in Topic 718. It also amends certain language in the “Scope” and “Scope Exceptions” sections of Topic 718 to improve its clarity and operability without changing the guidance. ASU 2024-01 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities may apply the guidance either retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements or prospectively to profits interest and similar awards granted or modified on or after the date of adoption. We adopted ASU 2024-01 on January 1, 2025. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. Notably, the ASU requires entities to disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, as well as disclosures of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Retrospective application to each period presented in the financial statements is permitted. We adopted ASU 2023-09 prospectively on January 1, 2025. The adoption of this standard only impacted our disclosures and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Guidance Issued but Not Adopted at December 31, 2025
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, “Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities,” which establishes guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of government grants received by business entities. Under ASU 2025-10, government grants are classified as either grants related to an asset or grants related to income, and recognition is permitted only when it is probable that the entity will comply with the conditions attached to the grant and that the grant will be received. ASU 2025-10 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software,” which removes all references to software development project stages and requires entities to start capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur: (i) management has authorized
F-19
Table of Contents
and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets.” ASU 2025-05 provides a practical expedient that all entities can use when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” Under this practical expedient, an entity is allowed to assume that the current conditions it has applied in developing an estimate of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract asset balances as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of those assets. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Entities that elect the practical expedient are required to apply the amendments prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity,” which revises the guidance in ASC 805 on identifying the accounting acquirer in a business combination in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The ASU is intended to improve comparability between business combinations that involve VIEs and those that do not. Under ASU 2025-03, a reporting entity involved in a business combination effected primarily by the exchange of equity interests must consider certain factors in ASC 805 to determine which entity is the accounting acquirer regardless of whether the legal acquiree is a VIE. ASU 2025-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2025-03 must be applied prospectively to any business combination that occurs after the initial adoption date. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments,” which clarifies the assessment of whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an inducement conversion or extinguishment of convertible debt. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” which requires disclosure of additional disaggregated information about significant expenses within relevant income statement captions, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements—Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative.” This ASU modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification by aligning them with the SEC’s regulations. The amendments to the various Topics should be applied prospectively, and the effective date for the Company for each amendment will be determined based on the effective date of the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. If the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement by June 30, 2027, then the related amendment in ASU 2023-06 will be removed from the Codification and will not become effective. Early adoption of this ASU is prohibited. We do not expect the amendments in this ASU to have a material impact on the disclosures or presentation in our consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
We calculate basic and diluted net income (loss) per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. In periods of a net loss position, basic and diluted weighted average common shares are the same. For the diluted earnings per share calculation, we adjust the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to include dilutive stock options, unvested restricted stock units and shares associated with the conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes and the Company’s

The primary objective of our investment portfolio is to enhance overall returns in an efficient manner while maintaining safety of principal, prudent levels of liquidity and acceptable levels of risk. Our investment policy limits interest-bearing security investments to certain types of debt and money market instruments issued by institutions with primarily investment-grade credit ratings, and it places restrictions on maturities and concentration by asset class and issuer.
We review our available-for-sale investments for other-than-temporary declines in fair value below our cost basis each quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the cost basis of an asset may not be recoverable. The evaluation is based on a number of factors, including the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been below our cost basis, as well as adverse conditions related specifically to the security such as any changes to the credit rating of the security and the intent to sell or whether we will more likely than not be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Our assessment of whether a security is other-than-temporarily impaired could change in the future based on new developments or changes in assumptions related to that particular security.
The following table shows the Company’s gross unrealized losses and fair value of available-for-sale debt securities, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

For U.S. Treasury notes, the unrealized losses were caused by interest rate increases after the investments were purchased. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. The Company generally does not intend to sell these investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, except in the case of an

economic reason, such as the need to support a debt repurchase strategy, or similar capital allocation decision. In such circumstances, the Company may consider selling these investments to optimize its overall capital structure. Absent an economic reason to sell these investments, the Company does not consider the U.S. Treasury notes to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2025.
For corporate debt securities, the unrealized losses were primarily caused by interest rate increases after the investments were purchased. The Company generally does not intend to sell these debt securities that are in an unrealized loss position, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these debt securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity, except in the case of an economic reason as described above. Based on the credit quality of the debt securities, and the Company’s estimates of future cash flows to be collected from those securities, the Company believes the unrealized losses are not credit losses. Accordingly, absent an economic reason to sell the investments, the Company does not consider the corporate debt securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2025.

Note 7. Fair Value Measurements
We measure fair value based on the prices that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are based on a three-tier hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers include the following:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted market prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in the assessment of fair value.
We did not elect the fair value option, as allowed, to account for financial assets and liabilities that were not previously carried at fair value. Therefore, material financial assets and liabilities that are not carried at fair value, such as trade accounts receivable and payable, are reported at their historical carrying values.

Our equity securities and available-for-sale debt securities, including U.S. treasury notes and corporate debt securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
We did not have any financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
We carry the Convertible Senior Notes at face value less the unamortized discount and issuance costs on our consolidated balance sheets and present fair value for disclosure purposes only, see Note 12 – Convertible Senior Notes for additional information. We estimate the fair value of the Convertible Senior Notes using the net present value of the payments, discounted at an interest rate that is consistent with market and risk-adjusted interest rates, which is a Level 2 input.

The fair value of the contingent consideration for the Cell&Co and Bluebird Express acquisitions was valued based on unobservable inputs using a Monte Carlo simulation. These inputs included the estimated amount and timing of projected future revenue, a discount rate, a risk-free rate, asset volatility and revenue volatility. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

2024 Impairment
Due to a sustained decrease in the Company’s share price in the second quarter of 2024, and a reduction in the projected operating performance of the MVE reporting unit, which management deemed to be triggering events related to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, we performed an interim impairment assessment of goodwill for the MVE and CRYOPDP reporting units as of June 30, 2024, with the assistance of an independent third party valuation specialist, using management’s updated interim financial and operational plans. Based on our analysis, we concluded that there has been

Noteholders may convert their 2026 Convertible Senior Notes at their option into shares of the Company’s common stock in the following circumstances: (1) before the close of business on the business day immediately before September 1, 2026, noteholders have the right to convert their 2026 Convertible Senior Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events (e.g., if sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds

per share of the Company’s common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. Also, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2026 Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time and is determined by reference to a make-whole table set forth in the 2026 Indenture. However, in no event will the conversion rate be increased to an amount that exceeds
The 2026 Convertible Senior Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations described below), at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after December 6, 2024 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, but only if certain liquidity conditions are satisfied and the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds
The 2026 Convertible Senior Notes contain customary terms and events of default. If an event of default involving bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization events with respect to the Company (and not solely with respect to a significant subsidiary of the Company) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other event of default (as defined in the 2026 Indenture) occurs and is continuing, then, the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or holders of at least
The 2026 Convertible Senior Notes were accounted for in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASC 470-20”) and ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”). Under ASC 815-40, to qualify for equity classification (or nonbifurcation, if embedded) the instrument (or embedded feature) must be both (1) indexed to the issuer’s stock and (2) meet the requirements of the equity classification guidance. Based upon the Company’s analysis, it was determined the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes contained embedded features indexed to its own stock, but did not meet the requirements for bifurcation and recognition as derivatives, and therefore did not need to be separately recognized. Accordingly, the proceeds received from the issuance of the 2026 Convertible Senior Notes were recorded as a single liability measured at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets.

Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies
Facility and Equipment Leases
We lease various principal facilities which include corporate, global logistics and supply chain centers, biostorage, manufacturing, and research and development facilities under operating leases in the United States, including in Tennessee, California, New Jersey, Texas, and Georgia, and internationally in the Netherlands, Belgium, and France. These lease agreements contain certain scheduled annual rent increases which are accounted for on a straight-line basis. In addition, we lease certain equipment which expires through July 2030, see Note 13 – Leases for additional information.
Employment Agreements
We have entered into employment agreements with certain of our officers under which payment and benefits would become payable in the event of termination by us for any reason other than cause, or upon a change in control of our Company, or by the employee for good reason.
Litigation
The Company may become a party to product litigation in the normal course of business. The Company accrues for open claims based on its historical experience and available insurance coverage. We record a loss contingency when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We also disclose material contingencies when we believe a loss is not probable but reasonably possible. Accounting for contingencies requires us to use judgment related to both the likelihood of a loss and the estimate of the amount or range of loss. The outcomes of our legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, subject to significant uncertainties, and could be material to our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for a particular period.
Indemnities and Guarantees
The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions. The guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the States of California and Nevada. In connection with its facility and equipment leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities and equipment. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies and is generally tied to the life of the agreements.

Redemption Rights. The Company may redeem the Series C Preferred Stock for cash, as follows:
Upon a “Fundamental Change” (involving a change of control or de-listing of the Company as further described in the Certificate of Designation), each Holder has the right to require the Company to redeem all or any part of the Holder’s Series C Preferred Stock for an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. If the Company does not have sufficient funds legally available to pay the repurchase price, then the Company is required to (a) pay the maximum amount of the repurchase price that can be paid out of funds legally available for payment, and (b) purchase any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock not purchased because of the foregoing limitations at the repurchase price as soon as practicable after the Company is able to make such purchase out of assets legally available for the purchase of such shares. If the Company fails to pay the repurchase price in full when due, then the Company will pay dividends on such shares not repurchased at a rate of
Voting Rights. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock are generally entitled to vote with the holders of the shares of common stock on an as-converted basis, subject to certain Nasdaq voting limitations, if applicable. Also, the consent of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series C Preferred Stock is required with respect to (i) amendments to the Company’s organizational documents that have an adverse effect on the Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, and (ii) issuances by the Company of securities that are senior to, or equal in priority with, the Series C Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock have the right to nominate for election
Registration Rights. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock have certain customary registration rights with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock and the shares of common stock into which they are converted, pursuant to the terms of a registration rights agreement. The Company is required to file within 90 days of the Closing Date and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to go effective as promptly as practicable, a registration statement covering the sale or distribution of common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. In December 2020, the Company filed an automatic shelf registration statement to register the resale of the common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.

Note 17. Stock-Based Compensation
Stock Options
We have
During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, we granted stock options at exercise prices equal to or greater than the quoted market price of our common stock on the grant date. The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using Black-Scholes with the following weighted average assumptions:
| | | | | | | |
| | December 31, | | ||||
| | 2025 | | 2024 | | 2023 | |
Expected life (years) | | | | | |||
Risk-free interest rate |
| | | | |||
Volatility | | | | | |||
Dividend yield |
| | | | |||
The expected option life assumption is estimated based on the simplified method as the Company’s history is not indicative of future expected lives. Accordingly, the Company has utilized the average of the contractual term of the options and the weighted average vesting period for all options to calculate the expected option term. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of our employee stock options. The expected volatility is based on the average of the historical volatility and the implied volatility of our stock commensurate with the expected life of the stock-based award. We do not anticipate paying dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future.
We recognize stock-based compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized only for those awards that ultimately vest. Forfeitures are recorded when recognized.

At December 31, 2025, the Company has federal and state NOL carryforwards of approximately $
Utilization of the NOL and research and development (“R&D”) carryforwards might be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership change limitations that may have occurred or that could occur in the future, as required by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), as well as similar state and foreign provisions. These ownership changes may limit the amount of NOL and R&D credit carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax, respectively. In general, an “ownership change” as defined by Section 382 of the Code results from a transaction or series of transactions over a three-year period resulting in an ownership change of more than 50 percentage points of the outstanding stock of a company by
F-43
Table of Contents
certain stockholders or public groups. Since the Company’s formation, the Company has raised capital through the issuance of capital stock on several occasions which, combined with the purchasing stockholders’ subsequent disposition of those shares, may have resulted in such an ownership change, or could result in an ownership change in the future upon subsequent capital stock transactions.
During 2025, the Company completed a Section 382 analysis study to determine if any ownership changes had occurred in the past, and to determine the impact any such ownership changes would have on the Company’s ability to utilize its US federal NOL and R&D credit carryforwards. This period for which this study was performed covered the years 2008 through 2024. Through this study, we determined that the Company had experienced three ownership changes, as defined by Section 382 of the Code, which limit the Company’s ability to use its federal NOL and R&D credit carryforwards accumulated as of the date of each ownership change. Based on this study, we determined that the Company should be able to access all of its federal NOL carryforwards prior to any expiration, with the exception of approximately $
The Company has not rolled forward the Section 382 analysis study to include 2025. Based on a review of the facts and circumstances, any ownership change in 2025 would not impact the limitations currently applied to the federal NOL and R&D credit carryforwards. Additionally, the Company has not conducted a Section 382 analysis study to determine the impact of the ownership changes on state NOL and R&D credit carryforwards. Based on a review of the facts and circumstances, any potential limitation from the ownership changes should not impact the availability of NOLs and R&D credit carryforwards used in the current year, but may affect their availability in the future. Due to the existence of the valuation allowance, any such state NOL and R&D credit carryforwards that may expire prior to utilization as a result of such limitations will be removed from deferred tax assets, with a corresponding reduction of the valuation allowance.

If recognized, none of the unrecognized tax positions would impact the Company’s income tax benefit or effective tax rate as long as the Company’s deferred tax assets remain subject to a full valuation allowance. The Company does not expect any significant increases or decreases to the Company’s unrecognized tax positions within the next 12 months.

We recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits (“UTBs”) and penalties as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2025, we have an immaterial accrual for interest in our consolidated balance sheet.
Due to the NOL carryforwards, the U.S. federal and state returns remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing jurisdictions for all years beginning with the year ended March 31, 2006. Our foreign subsidiaries are generally subject to examination three years following the year on which the tax obligation originated. The years subject to audit may be extended if the entity substantially understates corporate income tax. The Company does not have any foreign subsidiaries currently under audit by their local income tax authorities.
Note 19. Segment Reporting
Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The CODM is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
“Adjusted EBITDA,” which is defined by the Company as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain items that do not contribute directly to management’s evaluation of its operating results, is the profit measure used by the CODM for each operating segment in measuring the performance of the business and in the annual budget and forecasting process. Asset information by reportable segment is not provided to the CODM.
We have
In addition, the CODM manages and evaluates the operating performance of the segments, as described above, on a pre-corporate cost allocation basis. Accordingly, for segment reporting purposes, the Company does not allocate corporate costs, which include certain aspects of the Company’s executive management, legal, compliance, human resources, information technology and finance departments, to its reportable segments.
