Preliminary, unaudited combined company revenue for the full year 2025 of approximately $185 million; Revenue from continuing operations of approximately $85 million
BOSTON, Jan. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Standard BioTools Inc. (NASDAQ: LAB) (“Standard BioTools” or the “Company”) today announced preliminary and unaudited revenue results for the fourth quarter and full year 2025. Standard BioTools expects fourth quarter 2025 combined company revenue of approximately $56 million and revenue from continuing operations of approximately $24 million. For the full year 2025, the Company expects combined company revenue of approximately $185 million and revenue from continued operations of approximately $85 million.
"Our 2025 performance reflected steady execution, ending the year above our guidance range and exceeding expectations for both combined and continuing operations,” said Michael Egholm, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of Standard BioTools. “Amid a shifting macro backdrop, the team remained focused – managing what we could control to drive the business forward.”
Dr. Egholm added, “We continued our path toward profitability, taking targeted actions to streamline the organization and sharpen our operating model. Grounded in continuous improvement, we optimized workflows, improved our cost structure and drove rigor across the Company. These efforts strengthened our foundation and leave us exiting the year a leaner organization and a more resilient business.”
“As we look to 2026, the sale of SomaLogic to Illumina remains on track to close in the first half of the year. At close, we expect to have approximately $550 million in cash and a base business on its way to positive adjusted EBITDA — a combination that creates real strategic flexibility. With an experienced team, a simplified footprint and substantial cash, we are well positioned to pursue disciplined M&A as we work to build a diversified leader in life sciences."
Standard BioTools plans to report its fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results later this quarter, at which time the Company will discuss its full 2025 financial results in more detail and provide its outlook for 2026.
The Company’s unaudited, preliminary 2025 revenue results are based on current expectations and may be adjusted as a result of, among other things, completion of annual audit procedures. This financial information does not represent a comprehensive statement of the Company’s financial results for the fourth quarter or full year 2025 and remains subject to the completion of financial closing procedures and internal reviews.
