"2025 was a transformative year for BioLife. We delivered 29% revenue growth, led by sustained strength in our biopreservation media franchise and completed a strategic divestiture that firmly established BioLife as a focused, pure-play cell processing company centered on high-value, recurring revenue. With a streamlined cost structure and a scaled core business, we are now realizing the operating leverage inherent in our model." said Roderick de Greef, BioLife's Chairman and CEO. "Looking to 2026, we expect growth across our portfolio, operating margin expansion, continued improvement in adjusted EBITDA, and full year GAAP profitability. "Continued growth of the CGT end market – including new, unique therapy approvals, geographic expansions, a shift to earlier lines of treatment and additional indications for approved therapies – will further embed our gold-standard tools into more commercial therapies that drive demand. An improving biotech funding environment, strategic investment by large pharma, and ongoing clinical progress underscore this market's long-term attractiveness and provides a meaningful opportunity ahead for BioLife," he added.
