Bionano Announces Preliminary 3Q 2024 Revenues and Cash

Erik Holmlin, president and chief executive officer of Bionano commented, "as we previously announced, Bionano has been undertaking a strategic shift in the business that is intended to allow us to become a more capital-efficient business focused on driving utilization and adoption of OGM from our existing installed base, with less emphasis on new placements of our OGM systems. This business transformation may be a factor in revenues coming in lighter than previously anticipated, coupled with continued headwinds experienced for capital equipment across the tools and diagnostics sector. Nevertheless, we continue to see positive momentum around the routine use of OGM and expect our results to show growth in our core business as the organization focuses on driving utilization in productive geographies of the US, Canada, Europe and Israel."

Bionano is a provider of genome analysis solutions that can enable researchers and clinicians to reveal answers to challenging questions in biology and medicine. The Company's mission is to transform the way the world sees the genome through optical genome mapping (OGM) solutions, diagnostic services and software. The Company offers OGM solutions for applications across basic, translational and clinical research. The Company also offers an industry-leading, platform-agnostic genome analysis software solution, and nucleic acid extraction and purification solutions using proprietary isotachophoresis (ITP) technology.
