Insights

The Q3 results reveal concerning financial metrics for OMIC. Revenue of just $0.4 million and a negative gross profit of $0.3 million indicate significant commercialization challenges. The net loss of $16.8 million ($6.72 per share), while improved from last year's $22.4 million loss, remains substantial relative to the company's $58 million market cap.

The cash position of $113.8 million provides some runway, but with quarterly operating expenses of $17.8 million, burn rate remains high. The mention of "ongoing discussions related to a potential strategic transaction" coupled with canceled earnings call suggests possible M&A activity or strategic alternatives being explored, which could be important given the challenging financial position.

The G4X spatial sequencer launch shows promise in the competitive NGS market, with early access deployment and encouraging SITC conference data presentations. The Direct-Seq capability for single-cell immune repertoire profiling in spatial context represents valuable differentiation in the growing spatial biology field.

However, with only two G4 systems shipped in Q3, market adoption appears slow. The shift to reagent rental models suggests pricing pressure and customer hesitation for capital commitments, though it could help long-term market penetration. The expansion of Spatial Technology Access Services projects indicates market interest, but meaningful revenue generation remains uncertain.

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Singular Genomics Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: OMIC), a company leveraging novel next-generation sequencing (NGS) and spatial multiomics technologies to empower researchers and clinicians, today highlighted recent corporate achievements and reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

“In the third quarter, we made significant progress in the development of the G4X spatial sequencer,” said Drew Spaventa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Singular Genomics. “We are encouraged by the interest in the G4X and validation received through the expansion of our Spatial Technology Access Services project funnel, which reinforces our confidence in the potential for the G4X to deliver high-throughput spatial sequencing and multiomics at a superior value for our customers.”

Recent Updates

  • Shipped the first G4X Early Access instrument
  • Presented new data sets at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) conference, which:
    • highlighted the G4X’s performance, showcasing data for healthy and cancerous lung, breast, colon and kidney tissues; and
    • showcased the capability of Direct-Seq for single-cell immune repertoire profiling in a spatial context through direct B- and T-cell receptor sequencing in FFPE tissue
  • Shipped two G4 systems in the third quarter of 2024

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Revenue for the third quarter of 2024 was $0.4 million, driven primarily by consumables sales. Revenue from instrument shipments during the third quarter is expected to be generated over time as these customers purchase consumables.

Gross profit was negative $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to negative $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2023. Gross margin was negatively impacted by the company’s use of reagent rental and other non-capital purchase instrument placements, as well as higher costs associated with the support of system placements, which was partially offset by higher margins on consumable sales.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2024 were $17.8 million, compared to $24.5 million for the third quarter of 2023. Operating expenses included non-cash stock-based compensation of $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2024, and $2.8 million for the third quarter of 2023. Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2024 were partially offset by a non-cash gain of $1.6 million on lease modification for the partial termination of a lease agreement.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2024 was $16.8 million, or a loss of $6.72 per common share, compared to $22.4 million, or a loss of $9.25 per common share, in the third quarter of 2023.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, excluding restricted cash, as of September 30, 2024 totaled $113.8 million.

Due to ongoing discussions related to a potential strategic transaction, the company will not host a conference call to discuss its third quarter results. For further details regarding the company’s financial performance, please refer to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 available on the company’s website at www.singulargenomics.com or at www.sec.gov.
