Commercial Cell & Gene therapy revenue of $7.2 million, up 33% year over year
Q1 2025 revenue from continuing operations of $41.0 million, up 10% year over year
Supporting 711 global clinical trials as of March 31, 2025
Strategic partnership with DHL; CRYOPDP divestiture expected to close Q2/Q3 2025

NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cryoport, Inc. (NASDAQ:CYRX) (Cryoport), a global provider of temperature-controlled supply chain solutions for the life sciences sector, today announced financial results for the first quarter (Q1) ended March 31, 2025.

Jerrell Shelton, CEO of Cryoport, commented, "We delivered a strong start to the year with $41.0 million of revenue from continuing operations, which represented 10% year-over-year growth and drove meaningful improvement in adjusted EBITDA. We believe order patterns are stabilizing in our Life Sciences Products segment, while engagement levels increased significantly in our Life Sciences Services segment, highlighting a new momentum in our business. Consequently, we are optimistic in our outlook for the full year. Looking ahead, we continue to navigate through the current economic environment and, at this point in time, anticipate minimal impact from tariffs as we believe related charges will be passed through if and when they occur.

"Revenue growth from our support of commercial Cell & Gene therapies was up 33% year over year, while Life Sciences Services revenue, in total, increased 17% year-over-year. Our momentum in the Life Sciences Services space, which accounted for 56% of our total revenue in the first quarter of 2025, continues to be driven by the increasing development and commercialization of Cell & Gene-based therapies, which we expect will persist even in the current economic environment.

"We are also seeing further signs of demand stabilization in our Life Sciences Products business as we continue to expand our product portfolio to capture new revenue streams with innovative products such as the recently launched cryogenic storage system, MVE High-Efficiency 800C. The HE 800C, released in the first quarter of 2025 by MVE, meets the needs of facilities that have limited space yet require high capacity and security.

"Another key milestone this quarter was the announcement of our strategic partnership with the DHL Group, which includes DHL's anticipated acquisition of CRYOPDP, expected to close in the second or third quarter of this year. We believe this arrangement will enhance our operational reach, especially in the APAC and EMEA regions, and reshape our competitive profile within the industry by leveraging the global scale and capabilities of our strategic partner. The disposition of CRYOPDP is in response to the evolution of our industry and the ecosystem that is supporting it. The disposition will also provide us with a strong infusion of capital, represented by a substantial return on investment. Strategically, our partnership with DHL enables us to sharpen our organizational focus with the core of our services offerings directed towards the rapidly growing regenerative medicine space.

"In summary, we made meaningful progress in the first quarter, advancing revenue growth, operational efficiency, and entering into a strategic partnership with DHL. We believe this positions us well to accelerate our growth and we remain focused on supporting the increasing number of commercial regenerative medicine products and their rollouts around the world. In addition, we are also advancing other key initiatives such as our IntegriCell™ Cryopreservation Solution, completing our Global Supply Chain Centers, and introducing new innovative products to better serve our clients and diversifying our revenue streams. We remain confident these actions and our momentum will lead us to a return to positive adjusted EBITDA during 2025," concluded Mr. Shelton.

In tabular form, Q1 2025 revenue from continuing operations compared to Q1 2024 was as follows:

During the remainder of 2025, we anticipate up to an additional seventeen (17) application filings, four (4) new therapy approvals and an additional four (4) approvals for label/geographic expansions or moves to earlier lines of treatment.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial statements, which are presented on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are included in this release: revenue at constant currency, revenue growth rate at constant currency and adjusted EBITDA. Non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with 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 revenue at constant currency, revenue growth rate at constant currency and adjusted EBITDA, should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We believe that revenue growth is a key indicator of how Cryoport is progressing from period to period and we believe that the non-GAAP financial measures, revenue at constant currency and revenue growth rate at constant currency, are useful to investors in analyzing the underlying trends in revenue. Under GAAP, revenue from continuing operations received in local (non-U.S. dollar) currency is translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the period presented. 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. When we use the term "constant currency," it means that we have translated local currency revenue from continuing operations for the current reporting period into U.S. dollars using the same average foreign currency exchange rates for the conversion of revenue from continuing operations into U.S. dollars that we used to translate local currency revenue for the comparable reporting period of the prior year. Revenue growth rate at constant currency refers to the measure of comparing the current reporting period revenue from continuing operations at constant currency with the reported GAAP revenue from continuing operations for the comparable reporting period of the prior year.

However, we also believe that data on constant currency period-over-period changes have limitations, particularly as the currency effects that are eliminated could constitute a significant element of our revenue and could significantly impact our performance. We therefore limit our use of constant currency period-over-period changes to a measure for the impact of currency fluctuations on the translation of local currency revenue into U.S. dollars. We do not evaluate our results and performance without considering both period-over-period changes in non-GAAP constant currency revenue on the one hand and changes in revenue prepared in accordance with GAAP on the other. We caution the readers of this press release to follow a similar approach by considering revenue on constant currency period-over-period changes only in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, changes in revenue prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss adjusted for loss from discontinued operations, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration costs, cost reduction initiatives, investment income, unrealized (gain)/loss on investments, foreign currency (gain)/loss, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and charges or gains resulting from non-recurring events, as applicable.

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure of Cryoport's operating results, a meaningful comparison with historical results and with the results of other companies, and insight into Cryoport's ongoing operating performance. Further, management and the Company's board of directors utilize adjusted EBITDA to gain a better understanding of Cryoport's comparative operating performance from period to period and as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. Adjusted EBITDA is also a significant performance measure used by Cryoport in connection with its incentive compensation programs. Management believes adjusted EBITDA, when read in conjunction with Cryoport's GAAP financials, is useful to investors because it provides a basis for meaningful period-to-period comparisons of Cryoport's ongoing operating results, including results of operations, against investor and analyst financial models, helps identify trends in Cryoport's underlying business and in performing related trend analyses, and it provides a better understanding of how management plans and measures Cryoport's underlying business.
