Leading provider of biopreservation and cell processing tools for cell-based therapies, with a 65% gross margin and 29% organic revenue growth in FY 2025.
Refocused portfolio on cell processing tools, divesting storage, services, and freezer businesses to drive higher growth and profitability.
Products specified in over 950 global cell-based therapy trials and used in ~90% of commercially relevant, FDA-approved cell-based therapies.
Maintains a significant competitive moat due to high switching costs and mission-critical product roles.
Positioned as a pure-play provider in a cell-based therapy market expected to grow over 20% annually through 2030.
Product platforms and differentiation
Core products include CryoStor® (cryopreservation media), HypoThermosol® (hypothermic media), hPL solutions, CellSeal® vials, Signata (automated fill & finish), and ThawSTAR® (automated thawing).
Biopreservation media deliver consistent, high post-thaw cell viability and are widely adopted in clinical and commercial programs.
Cell processing tools enhance workflow efficiency, reduce contamination risk, and support robust cell expansion.
Increasing multi-product specification in early-stage trials supports sustained growth.

FY 2025 revenue reached $96M with a 65% gross margin and 26% adjusted EBITDA margin.
Adjusted EBITDA for FY 2025 was $25M, with a margin of 26%.
