Insights

Q1 shows softer sales but much lower losses and a new buyback.

MaxCyte generated Q1 2026 revenue of $9.7 million, down 7% year over year, with core revenue falling 25% while SPL milestones and royalties increased. Operating expenses dropped meaningfully, cutting the operating loss to $6.2 million from $12.3 million.

Net loss narrowed to $4.8 million, helped by $1.4 million of interest income. The balance sheet remained strong, with $194.5 million in total assets and modest liabilities. Management reaffirmed 2026 revenue guidance of $30–32 million, signaling confidence in both core and SPL revenue streams.

The board approved a $10 million share repurchase program, to be executed over a one-year period subject to liquidity and market conditions. Future quarters, including the period ending on June 30, 2026, will show whether core revenue trends stabilize while SPL-related revenue continues to grow.

share repurchase program financial
"MaxCyte’s Board authorized a $10 million share repurchase program"
A share repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the marketplace. This reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's prospects. For investors, it often suggests that the company believes its stock is undervalued or that it has extra cash to return to shareholders.
EBITDA financial
"This press release contains EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest income and expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization."
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
Non-GAAP Gross Margin financial
"This press release also contains Non-GAAP Gross Margin, which we define as Gross Margin when excluding SPL program related revenue and reserves for excess and obsolete inventory."
Non-GAAP gross margin is a measure of a company's profitability that shows how much money it makes from sales after subtracting the direct costs of producing its products or services, but without applying certain accounting adjustments required by standard rules. It helps investors understand the company's core earning ability by excluding items like one-time expenses or accounting changes. This metric provides a clearer picture of ongoing business performance beyond official financial reports.
Rule 10b5-1 regulatory
"Repurchases may be made pursuant to one or more trading plans adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1, through discretionary open market purchases"
Rule 10b5-1 is a regulation that allows company insiders to buy or sell their shares at predetermined times, even if they have access to non-public information. It acts like setting a schedule in advance for transactions, helping prevent accusations of unfair trading. This rule provides a way for insiders to plan trades transparently, giving investors confidence that these transactions are not based on hidden information.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995."
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
Revenue $9,651,000 -7% YoY

Reiterates 2026 revenue guidance of $30-32 million; with Core revenue of $25-27 million and Strategic Platform License (SPL) Program-related of $5 million

MaxCyte’s Board authorized a $10 million share repurchase program

ROCKVILLE, MD, May 12, 2026 — MaxCyte, Inc., (NASDAQ: MXCT), a leading, cell-engineering focused company providing enabling platform technologies to advance the discovery, development and commercialization of next-generation cell therapeutics, today announced its first quarter ended March 31, 2026 financial results and reiterated its 2026 guidance.

“We are pleased with our performance in the first quarter, and remain confident in our full year guidance,” said Maher Masoud, President and CEO of MaxCyte.  “Our core revenue from partners and customers was in line with our expectations for both our ExPERT electroporation platforms and SeQure services. The SPL portfolio continues to advance in the clinic, including a clinical customer that began dosing patients in a registrational study in the first quarter, and we remain confident additional customers will initiate registrational trials this year. Further, our SPL portfolio remains strong and spans a broad range of modalities and indications. MaxCyte remains extremely well positioned in the cell & gene therapy industry, with leading technology and an efficient cost structure. Reflecting continued confidence in our strategy and the long-term value of our business, the Board today authorized a $10 million share repurchase. This authorization provides us with flexibility in capital allocation while we continue to invest in key growth initiatives, including the recent launch of ExPERT DTx and the integration of SeQure Dx. We believe this balanced approach enables us to both reinvest in the business and return capital to shareholders.”

Share Repurchase Program

MaxCyte’s board of directors has authorized a share repurchase program for up to $10 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock within a one-year period, unless extended or shortened by the board of directors. Any repurchases would be made in the open market and/or in privately negotiated transactions, and may be made from time to time or in one or more larger repurchases. Repurchases may be made pursuant to one or more trading plans adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1, through discretionary open market purchases during periods when the Company's trading window is open, and/or in privately negotiated transactions. Open market purchases are expected to be made in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The Company expects to utilize a majority of the approved $10 million in the short to medium term, however, the amount and timing of any repurchases made under the repurchase program will depend on a variety of factors, including available liquidity, cash flow and market conditions. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the program may be modified or suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest income and expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization. MaxCyte believes that EBITDA provides useful information to management and investors relating to its results of operations. The company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, and for budgeting and planning purposes. The company believes that the use of EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the company’s financial measures with other companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and that it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.

This press release also contains Non-GAAP Gross Margin, which we define as Gross Margin when excluding SPL program related revenue and reserves for excess and obsolete inventory. The Company believes that the use of Non-GAAP Gross Margin provides an additional tool to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance, as Non-GAAP Gross Margin excludes non-core revenues and inventory reserves, which can vary significantly between periods and thus affect comparability.

Management does not consider these Non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant revenues and expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents these Non-GAAP financial measures along with GAAP results. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Reconciliation tables of net loss, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to EBITDA, and Gross Margin, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to Non-GAAP Gross Margin, are included at the end of this release. MaxCyte urges investors to review the reconciliation and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the company’s business.

Forward Looking Statement Disclaimer 2 © 2026 MaxCyte, Inc. All Rights Reserved Certain statements in this document (this “Presentation”) are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited to statements regarding our expected potential future revenue. These statements about us and our industry involve substantial known and unknown risk, uncertainties and assumptions, that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Presentation are forward-looking statements. The words "may," "might," "will," "could," "would," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "intend," "believe," "expect," "estimate," "seek," "predict," "future," "project," "potential," "continue," "target" and similar words or expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Any forward-looking statements in this Presentation are based on management's current expectations and beliefs and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and important factors that may cause actual events or results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements contained in this Presentation, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's future growth, results of operations, performance, future capital and other expenditures (including the amount, nature and sources of funding thereof), competitive advantages, business prospects and opportunities. These and other risks and uncertainties are described in greater detail in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as well as discussions of potential risks, uncertainties, and other important factors in the other filings that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. These documents are available, without charge, on the Securities and Exchange Commission website and through the Investor Menu, Financials section under "SEC filings" on the Investors page of our website at http://investors.maxcyte.com. No statement in this Presentation is intended to be, or intended to be construed as, a profit forecast or profit estimate or to be interpreted to mean that earnings per Company share for the current or future financial years will necessarily match or exceed the historical earnings per Company share. As a result, no undue reliance should be placed on such statements. Any forward-looking statements represent our views only as of the date of this Presentation and should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date. We explicitly disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. No representations or warranties (expressed or implied) are made about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements. This Presentation contains Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, goodwill impairment and one-time restructuring charges. MaxCyte believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to management and investors relating to its results of operations. The company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, and for budgeting and planning purposes. The company believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the company’s financial measures with other companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and that it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. This Presentation also contains Non-GAAP Gross Margin, which we define as Gross Margin when excluding SPL program related revenue and reserves for excess and obsolete inventory. The Company believes that the use of Non-GAAP Gross Margin provides an additional tool to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance, as Non-GAAP Gross Margin excludes non-core revenues and inventory reserves, which can vary significantly between periods and thus affect comparability. Management does not consider these Non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant revenues and expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. A reconciliation table of Gross Margin, the most comparable GAAP financial measure to Non-GAAP Gross Margin, is included in the appendix of this Presentation. The Company urges investors to review the reconciliation and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business.
