GeneDx Announces Preliminary 2024 Financial Results

Expects to exceed guidance with full year 2024 revenues¹ of at least $299 million

Expects fourth quarter 2024 revenues¹ of at least $92 million

Expects to exceed guidance with full year 2024 adjusted gross margin¹ of at least 64%

GeneDx Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:WGS), a leader in delivering improved health outcomes through genomic insights, today reported preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2024.

"2024 was a transformative year for GeneDx, as we achieved our profitability milestone of adjusted net income, released landmark studies, strengthened our products and expanded our team to set up for the opportunity ahead," said Katherine Stueland, CEO of GeneDx. "The economic burden of rare disease is estimated to be $1 trillion annually, with the absence of early diagnosis being a major contributor to this cost and the cause for unnecessary and avoidable suffering faced by too many families. With our differentiated capabilities, GeneDx is setting the standard for the use of genetics in healthcare. We ended 2024 with momentum and are only beginning to unlock our full potential."

"Our Q4 performance reflects strong execution as we expect to deliver a second consecutive quarter of adjusted net income and our first quarter of positive operational cash flow," said Kevin Feeley, CFO of GeneDx.
