In other recent news, MaxCyte Inc. has reported a mixed financial performance for the year 2024. The company experienced a 6% decline in total revenue, ending the year with $38.6 million, despite a 9% increase in core revenue, which reached $32.5 million. This growth was primarily driven by a significant rise in Processing Assembly revenue, up 36% from the previous year. However, MaxCyte’s fourth-quarter revenue saw a sharp 45% year-over-year decline, amounting to $8.7 million. Analysts from Stifel and BTIG have revised their price targets for MaxCyte, with Stifel lowering it to $9 and BTIG to $6, both maintaining a Buy rating. The adjustments reflect cautious stances due to macroeconomic uncertainties and conservative revenue guidance from the company. MaxCyte’s strategic focus includes its recent acquisition of SeQure Dx, which is expected to contribute to core revenue growth of 8-15% in 2025. The company ended 2024 with a strong cash position of $190.3 million and no debt, as it continues to navigate a challenging operating environment in the biopharmaceutical sector.
