Second quarter revenue increased 14% year-over-year to $45.5 million Commercial Cell & Gene Therapy revenue increased 33% year-over-year to $8.7 million Life Sciences Services revenue rose 21% year-over-year, including a 28% increase in BioStorage/BioServices revenue Launched strategic partnership agreement with the DHL Group; closed CRYOPDP divestiture Company reaffirms full year 2025 revenue guidance of $165 to $172 million NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cryoport, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYRX) ("Cryoport" or the "Company"), a leading global provider of temperature-controlled supply chain solutions for the life sciences, today announced financial results for its second quarter (Q2) and first half (H1) of 2025. Jerrell Shelton, CEO of Cryoport, commented, "Cryoport delivered strong, double-digit growth across all revenue streams within Life Sciences Services in the second quarter, increasing 21% year-over-year and accounting for 54% of total revenue from continuing operations. Notably, revenue from BioLogistics Solutions increased 20% and BioStorage/BioServices revenue rose 28%, underscoring the growing demand for our integrated platform. "Revenue from the support of commercial cell and gene therapies increased 33% year-over-year to $8.7 million. This growth continues to be fueled by the increasing development and adoption of cell & gene therapies, a positive trend we believe will continue for years to come. "Life Sciences Products revenue grew 8% year-over-year. This solid performance was primarily driven by stronger demand, particularly from animal health customers. "The 14% year-over-year increase in total revenue from continuing operations, combined with our planned pathway to profitability, contributed to an increase in gross margin and a meaningful improvement in our adjusted EBITDA. With strong execution across all business units, we are reaffirming our full-year 2025 revenue guidance as we move towards our goal of sustainable, long-term profitability. "A key milestone this quarter was the launch of our strategic partnership with the DHL Group and DHL's acquisition of CRYOPDP. This transaction with DHL delivered both a strong infusion of capital, a substantial return on investment, and strengthened our global biologistics capabilities and effectiveness. By leveraging DHL's competencies, scale, and reach in APAC and EMEA, we believe we will be increasingly well positioned to expand our Life Sciences Services business and deepen our leadership in the developing global regenerative medicine market. "In summary, the second quarter was marked by strong revenue growth, improved profitability, and the execution of a transformative partnership strategy. We are entering the second half of the year with strong momentum and a clear focus on driving long-term shareholder value," concluded Mr. Shelton. In tabular form, Q2 2025 and H1 2025 revenue compared to Q2 2024 and H1 2024, respectively, were as follows: BioStorage/BioServices revenue continued its strong growth trajectory year-over-year, increasing 28% in Q2 2025 as we continue to introduce our capabilities to existing clients, add new clients into our global network, and as more commercial therapies progress in the number of patients treated. Revenue from the support of commercial cell & gene therapies increased 33% year-over-year to $8.7 million and included revenue from BioLogistics Solutions and accessories. As of June 30, 2025, we supported eighteen (18) commercial therapies. As of June 30, 2025, Cryoport supported a total of 728 global clinical trials, a net increase of 44 clinical trials over June 30, 2024, with 82 of these clinical trials in Phase 3. The number of trials by phase and region are as follows: In Q2 2025, one Marketing Authorization Applications (MAA) filing occurred and two Biologics License Applications (BLA) filings have occurred for label/geographic expansions post the quarter end. During the quarter, Cryoport's customer Abeona Therapeutics received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for their cell therapy ZEVASKYNTM, for the treatment of Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB). During the remainder of 2025, we anticipate up to an additional twenty (20) application filings, one (1) new therapy approval and an additional three (3) approvals for label/geographic expansions. Additionally, in late June 2025, the FDA announced it was removing the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS) requirements for approved BCMA- and CD19-directed autologous CAR-T cell immunotherapies. This reduces the regulatory burden and can lead to increased patient access and faster commercial scaling for these therapies. Cryoport-supported therapies such as Carvykti®, Yescarta®, Tecartus®, and Breyanzi® are included in this FDA action. Operational milestones Life Sciences Services Continued plans to complete our Global Supply Chain Centers in Paris, France and Santa Ana, California, with Paris expected to begin its launch in late 2025 and Santa Ana in the second half of 2026. CryoGene opened the first southeast regional automated sample storage center in partnership with Texas Children's Hospital. Launched our Cryoshuttle service in Tokyo, Japan, supporting multiple commercial therapies. Life Sciences Products MVE Biological Solutions launched its next generation SC 4/2V and SC 4/3V vapor shippers, offering improved safety and reliability for transporting and preserving sensitive biological materials at cryogenic temperatures. Recorded multiple sales of MVE's cryogenic storage system, the MVE High-Efficiency 800C, which was released earlier this year, meeting the needs of facilities that have limited space for cryostorage yet require high capacity and security. Deployed the highest number of MVE cryogenic dewars to the animal health industry since 2013. Financial Highlights On June 11, 2025, the Company completed its previously announced divestiture of its specialty courier CRYOPDP business to DHL Supply Chain International Holding B.V. ("DHL") and entered into a strategic partnership with DHL. The divestiture and strategic partnership are expected to enhance the Company's ability to develop its business, particularly in the EMEA and APAC regions, and to provide differentiated and high-value services aligned with Cryoport's long-term growth strategy. The results of CRYOPDP, a former business within Cryoport's Life Sciences Services business, are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented within the Condensed Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included in this press release and are also not included in the non-GAAP financial measures presented herein.

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date hereof and the Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, the Company disclaims any obligation and does not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statements in this press release. 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, adjusted operating costs and expenses, adjusted net income (loss), 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, adjusted operating costs and expenses, adjusted net income (loss), 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 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 operating costs and expenses is defined as operating costs and expenses, excluding impairment losses, if any. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss), excluding impairment losses, if any. Management believes these measures, when read in conjunction with, and as supplemental to, the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide useful measures to investors of Cryoport's expenses and operating results, meaningful comparisons with historical results, and insight into Cryoport's operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for loss from discontinued operations, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration costs, divestiture costs, cost reduction initiatives, investment income, unrealized (gain)/loss on investments, foreign currency (gain)/loss, net gain on extinguishment of debt, impairment 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.

After four failed phase 3 trials, Bristol Myers Squibb CEO Chris Boerner said a new chief medical officer represents "an opportunity for a refresh." Bristol Myers Squibb had a strong quarter, with key drugs old and new coming in either above or in line with Wall Street’s expectations.The New Jersey pharma’s $12.3 billion revenues in the second quarter handily beat analysts’ consensus by 7.7%. As a result, the company raised its full-year revenue outlook by $700 million at the midpoint, to a new range between $46.5 billion and $47.5 billion.Both legacy products, such as blood cancer drug Revlimid and Pfizer-partnered blood thinner Eliquis, and newer drugs, including heart disease med Camzyos and cell therapy Breyanzi, outperformed expectations during the period. Most notably, despite a 38% year-over-year decline, Revlimid’s $838 million haul during the quarter landed a surprising 40% above consensus.But investors’ attention remains focused on the schizophrenia drug Cobenfy, despite its small $35 million contribution to BMS’ top line in the second quarter.The number slightly beat analysts’ projection of $32 million, as BMS continues to see prescription growth. Still, the sales are far from the multibillion-dollar territory that BMS and industry watchers believe the novel antipsychotic could reach. Cobenfy is now tracking over 2,000 total weekly scripts in the U.S., BMS Chief Commercialization Officer Adam Lenkowsky told investors on a call Thursday.“As we previously communicated, we knew it was going to take time to change what’s been decades of entrenched prescribing behavior; and indeed, I think that’s been the case,” Lenkowsky said.BMS is expanding its community field force to increase reach and frequency because “it takes multiple calls to change physician behavior,” he said. Addressing a common question from doctors about how to switch from traditional meds, BMS is introducing peer-to-peer assistance and running a phase 4 switch study, which is expected to read out this year.Lenkowsky described a phased approach to Cobenfy’s expansion: first in the community setting, then to hospitals and, ultimately, new indications.However, Cobenfy recently failed as an adjunctive treatment in patients with inadequately controlled schizophrenia. BMS, having observed a numerical improvement and a positive sign through a post-hoc subgroup analysis of the Arise trial, has said it would talk with the FDA about a potential path forward.That discussion has not yet happened, and BMS continues to analyze the data, BMS’ chief medical officer, Samit Hirawat, M.D., said on Thursday’s call.Meanwhile, investors are shifting their focus to Cobenfy’s opportunity in Alzheimer’s disease psychosis, with Adept-2, the first of three phase 3 trials, on track to report data this year. BMS needs at least two positive studies to be able to file for an approval there.Cobenfy is a combination of xanomeline and trospium chloride. Xanomeline has shown some benefits for treating psychosis symptoms in Alzheimer’s, but as one analyst noted on Thursday’s call, xanomeline on its own demonstrated a clear problem with patient dropouts in an earlier trial. Hirawat argued that people should not draw direct conclusions from that case, because BMS’ trials mark “a huge difference” from the xanomeline study conducted 30 years ago.Counting Cobenfy’s Arise trial flop, all four of BMS’ pivotal data readouts so far this year have been negative. The other three setbacks were Opdualag in adjuvant melanoma, Camzyos in non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and, more recently, Reblozyl in myelofibrosis-associated anemia. Clinical failures of those growth products don’t look very promising for a company that’s bracing itself for a major loss-of-exclusivity phase. But BMS CEO Chris Boerner appeared less concerned.“First, as we look back at the studies that haven’t gone the way we had anticipated, there are two things I think are important to keep in mind,” Boerner said on the investor call. “The first is that when you look at those studies in totality, while they were meant to answer important scientific questions or clinical practice questions, they collectively have relatively limited impact on the long-term growth of the company.”“What is more important is whether or not those studies have any implications going forward,” the chief executive continued. “And we don’t see any read-forward from those studies to future opportunities.”That said, BMS is bringing on a new chief medical officer as of Aug. 1: Cristian Massacesi, M.D., formerly AstraZeneca’s chief medical officer and oncology chief development officer.“In many respects, not just with respect to the early pipeline, but really across drug development, there’s going to be a focus that we have on execution,” Boerner said of Massacesi’s appointment.While Hirawat has laid the foundation for some R&D initiatives at BMS, “anytime you bring somebody in from outside the company, you would expect that they would bring a different approach, a different level of energy, a different way of thinking,” Boerner continued. “So, I think there’s an opportunity for a refresh there as well.”
