MaxCyte Announces Preliminary Third Quarter 2023 Revenue and Updates Full Year 2023 Revenue Guidance

ROCKVILLE, Md., Oct. 04, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MaxCyte, Inc., (NASDAQ: MXCT; LSE: MXCT), a leading, cell-engineering focused company providing enabling platform technologies to advance the discovery, development and commercialization of next-generation cell therapeutics and innovative bioprocessing, today announced preliminary revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023 and updated its full year 2023 revenue guidance.

Preliminary Third Quarter 2023 Revenue

  • Total revenue of $7.8 – 8.0 million in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of 25 -27% compared to the third quarter of 2022; the decline is due to continued reduced customer activity in the sector.
  • Core business revenue of $6.4 - 6.6 million in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of 33 - 35% compared to the third quarter of 2022.
  • Strategic Partnership License (SPL) Program-related revenue of $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2022.

Updated 2023 Revenue Guidance

  • Total revenue now expected to be approximately $34 - 36 million for the year.
  • Core revenue now expected to be approximately $28 - 30 million for the year.
  • SPL Program-related revenue expected to be approximately $6 million for the year, consistent with prior guidance.

“Given the ongoing volatility in customer activity in the life science tools sector, and after reviewing third quarter preliminary revenue, we are providing shareholders with an update on our expected full year revenue performance. We have updated our total revenue and core revenue guidance for 2023 to reflect a more challenging operating environment, which we expect to persist at least through the remainder of the year,” said Doug Doerfler, President and Chief Executive Officer at MaxCyte. “Processing Assembly (disposable) purchases in both Cell Therapy and Drug Discovery are not materializing as expected. In addition, we continue to see hesitancy in Cell Therapy instrument purchases by early-stage customers. We believe this customer activity is primarily the result of a depressed funding environment in the Cell and Gene Therapy sector and in the broader biotech industry, as well as customers’ higher levels of Processing Assembly inventory remaining from previous year purchases. Customers also continue to reprioritize their spending, which has resulted in an overall elongation or pause of certain preclinical and early clinical activity.”

Doug continued, “While we are disappointed with our 2023 revenues thus far, we remain optimistic about MaxCyte’s long-term prospects, business model and ability to deliver shareholder value as the cell therapy industry grows and we continue to execute on our strategy. We are prudently managing our costs amid the challenging industry environment and still expect to end the year with approximately $200 million in cash, which would be unchanged from our initial outlook at the beginning of the year. Our robust and expanding partnership portfolio, with 23 SPL agreements now in place, highlights MaxCyte’s premier cell engineering technology and expertise and supports the significant role we play in enabling a growing set of next-generation cell therapies. We note that a number of our customers are reaching important clinical and regulatory milestones with the support of our technology.”

MaxCyte’s third quarter results are preliminary and unaudited and subject to change in connection with the completion of MaxCyte’s quarterly closing process and review procedures. As a result, these preliminary results may differ from the actual results that will be reflected in MaxCyte’s consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, which are expected to be released on or about November 8, 2023.
