1.b. Last Insights on BNGO

Bionano Genomics' recent performance was negatively impacted by a series of challenging events. The company's decision to enter into a $10 million registered direct offering at a price of $0.252 per share, accompanied by warrants, may have diluted shareholder value. Additionally, the announcement of a reverse stock split, effective at a ratio of 1-for-60, could also have a negative impact on shareholder value. Furthermore, the company's debt restructuring, which defers amortization payments and reduces monthly payments from $1 million to $500,000, may not be sufficient to address its cash runway concerns. The absence of any recent earnings release makes it difficult to assess the company's current financial health.

2. Bionano's Q3 2025 Earnings: A Step Closer to a Digital Pathology Future

Bionano Genomics reported a total revenue of $7.4 million for the third quarter of 2025, marking a 21% increase from the same period in 2024. The company's non-GAAP gross margin stood at 46%, while its non-GAAP operating expenses decreased by 40% year-over-year. The earnings per share (EPS) came in at -$1.59, beating estimates of -$1.81. The company's installed base grew to 384 systems after installing 7 new systems during the quarter. The revenue growth was largely driven by a 7% increase in flow cell purchases by existing customers, with the company selling a record 8,390 flow cells.

📋 Highlights
  • Revenue Growth:: Q3 2025 revenue reached $7.4 million, reflecting a 21% year-over-year increase.
  • Flow Cell Sales:: Sold 8,390 flow cells, a 7% year-over-year increase, with 7% growth in existing customer purchases.
  • Gross Margin:: Non-GAAP gross margin hit 46%, supported by disciplined operating expenses reduced by 40% YoY.
  • Installed Systems:: 7 new systems installed, raising the total to 384, with 2025 full-year revenue guidance raised to $26–$30 million.
  • Reimbursement Progress:: 97 new optical genome mapping publications in Q3 2025, a 10% YoY increase, supporting reimbursement efforts.

Revenue Growth Drivers

The company's focus on driving utilization within its routine user base is yielding results, with revenue from consumables and software growing 15% year-over-year in the third quarter and 10% for the first 9 months of 2025. Bionano's strategy of supporting its installed base, driving software adoption, and building support for optical genome mapping reimbursement is working in tandem to drive growth. As Dr. Erik Holmlin mentioned during the call, the company's efforts are focused on "transforming pathology by moving from an analog past to a digital future."

Optical Genome Mapping Progress

Bionano made significant progress in building support for optical genome mapping reimbursement, with 97 new publications demonstrating its value in the third quarter of 2025, a 10% growth over the same period in 2024. The company's pricing for optical genome mapping is higher than microarray codes, aligning with the needs of laboratories today. This progress is crucial in driving adoption and reimbursement for the company's optical genome mapping technology.

Outlook and Valuation

Bionano reiterated its full-year 2025 revenue guidance of $26 million to $30 million and expects the fourth quarter of 2025 revenues to be in the range of $7.5 million to $7.9 million. Analysts estimate next year's revenue growth at 32.0%. With a Price-to-Sales Ratio of 0.18, the market seems to have tempered expectations. However, considering the company's negative EPS, the P/E Ratio of -0.21 might not be a reliable metric. The EV/EBITDA ratio stands at -0.3, indicating that the company's valuation is largely dependent on its future growth prospects.
