While the immediate financial situation appears precarious, ProPhase has made decisive moves to streamline operations, eliminate underperforming segments, and focus on higher-potential assets. The effectiveness of this restructuring and the success of BE-Smart commercialization will determine whether this radical transformation can reverse the company's financial decline.
ProPhase's strategic pivot toward its BE-Smart Esophageal Cancer test represents a calculated bet on a potential breakthrough diagnostic. The test offers several clinical advantages - requiring just 1-2 biopsy tissue slices while providing disease severity assessment and progression prediction capabilities that exceed traditional methods.
The company's decision to initially launch BE-Smart as a cash-pay diagnostic follows a proven pathway used by other successful diagnostic companies like Castle Biosciences. This approach allows immediate market entry while pursuing more complex CPT coding and reimbursement channels.
The involvement of Dr. Joe Abdo (co-inventor) and GI pathology expert Dr. Christopher Hartley from Mayo Clinic adds scientific credibility. The pending publication of performance metrics in a peer-reviewed manuscript within 8-16 weeks will be crucial for clinical adoption.
What truly distinguishes BE-Smart is its proprietary multiplexing capability and exclusive IP on eight protein markers associated with disease progression to esophageal adenocarcinoma. These markers provide unique insights from tissue samples - a significant advantage over competing assays that require larger specimens.
The genomics database of 65,000 whole genomes across 130 countries represents an undervalued asset with potential applications in research partnerships, drug development, and diagnostic innovation. Unlike ancestry tests analyzing less than
While promising, the BE-Smart commercialization faces significant execution challenges - particularly establishing clinical adoption patterns, navigating the complex reimbursement landscape, and competing against entrenched diagnostic providers. The timeline from regulatory clearance to meaningful revenue remains uncertain.
Company to Accelerate BE-Smart Commercialization as a Cash-Pay Diagnostic
Significantly reduces overhead, improves margins heading into Q2 2025
Company to hold a conference call Monday, March 31, 2025, at 11:00 AM EST
GARDEN CITY, NY, March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ProPhase Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRPH), (the “Company” or “ProPhase”), a next generation biotech, genomics and consumer products company, today reported its financial and operational results for the full-year ended December 31, 2024 and outlined strategic corporate developments aimed at realigning the Company for sustained long-term growth, profitability, and strategic focus.
Ted Karkus, CEO of ProPhase Labs, will present to shareholders today, March 31, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. EST during the live Virtual Non-Deal Roadshow Series. The details are available below.
Following a year of operational reevaluation and bold decision-making, ProPhase has emerged with a significantly leaner structure, stronger balance sheet, and a renewed commitment to its core growth assets, including BE-Smart Esophageal Cancer test, Nebula Genomics/DNA Complete (with its proprietary genomic database) and its dietary supplements business.
Key Financial Milestone: Manufacturing Division Sold for
In January 2025, the Company completed the divestiture of its Pharmaloz manufacturing operations for approximately
BE-Smart Diagnostic Platform Launch
The Company has engaged Dr. Joe Abdo, former CEO of Stella Diagnostics and co-inventor of BE-Smart, in collaboration with our other consultants, to begin the commercialization of its high-performance assay for detection of esophageal diseases as a clinically available diagnostic test. BE-Smart is designed to deliver high accuracy using only 1–2 slices of biopsy tissue and can identify disease severity while also being predictive of progression, surpassing traditional diagnostics both in performance and utility.
Dr. Abdo is working alongside GI pathology expert Dr. Christopher Hartley, who leads the validation study at Mayo Clinic for BE-Smart. They, along with key stakeholders from multiple academic and clinical institutions, have presented compelling data nationwide and are currently preparing a peer-reviewed manuscript for publication to highlight the performance of BE-Smart.
The Company’s efforts are focused on producing a new manuscript that is currently in preparation that will provide a comprehensive overview of BE-Smart’s performance metrics. The manuscript is estimated to be submitted for peer-review within 4 to 8 weeks. We anticipate an additional 4 to 8 weeks for a decision on publication, following submission. Once published, this manuscript will reinforce the test’s efficacy and its advantages over existing diagnostics, further establishing its value to gastroenterologists and patients.
During the manuscript review and publication process, the Company will begin working on the next steps for commercialization. This includes exploring existing generic CPT codes to identify potential developmental paths for bringing BE-Smart to market. Similar to other diagnostic tests in the industry like Castle Biosciences’s TissueCypher, BE-Smart is expected to be launched initially as a cash-pay diagnostic for gastroenterologists while CPT coding is pursued. This will allow patients the choice for optimized esophageal screening with what the Company believes is the state-of-the-art diagnostic test. Despite the possibility of initial non-payment, this strategy will help initiate reimbursement discussions and increase the volume of tests ordered. Doctors can be assured that neither patients nor their clinics will face balance billing, ensuring a patient-friendly approach. Additionally, the Company will leverage our extensive network of key opinion leaders to connect with GI doctors and drive the promotion and adoption of the test at high impact conferences.
The Company believes that some competing assays in the space do not have the unique multiplexablility of BE-Smart, which allows for detection of many significant disease progressors from very little tissue. Availability of these small biopsies remains a significant limitation with outsourced testing which limits the success of other diagnostic tests. BE-Smart is also the only assay to have the IP on eight key protein markers that are expressed in diseases of the foregut and have been associated with disease progression, specifically into esophageal adenocarcinoma. Other cash based esophageal cancer diagnostic tests have had significant success recently even though they require a large amount of tissue and cannot see our proprietary and highly informative markers. This highlights the potential for BE-Smart. The target market for BE-Smart is approximately 7 million endoscopies, in the U.S. alone, that are performed on patients at higher risk each year. This equates to a
Nebula Genomics Overhaul & Strategic Review
ProPhase’s wholly-owned subsidiary Nebula Genomics, under new leadership from Jason Karkus, has been strategically restructured. Following the lab shutdown, the division has formed partnerships with multiple external genomic sequencing labs, each competing to deliver superior pricing and quality. As part of these efforts, and in coordination with recently-hired Stu Hollenshead as COO, the Company has significantly reduced IT and data expenses, streamlined payroll, and eliminated substantial ongoing operational costs. These cost-effective strategies have drastically improved margins, enhanced cash flow, and reduced execution risk. Additionally, the Company’s direct-to-consumer platform, DNA Complete, has been refined and positioned for growth. Under the guidance of Stu Hollenshead, targeted advertising campaigns are expected to significantly ramp up revenues and profitability for this subsidiary.
In parallel, the Company is exploring a potential sale of Nebula Genomics and is in the early stages of evaluating strategic options.
Nebula Genomics Genomic Database
ProPhase now controls a database of over 65,000 genomes across 130 countries and is actively growing. This is equivalent in scientific depth to over 150 million ancestry tests. While most consumer DNA ancestry tests analyze less than

A Unified Future: Supplements, Telehealth, and Cross-Sell Synergies
With infrastructure now in place across DNA Complete, BE-Smart, and ProPhase’s dietary supplement line, the Company is considering the launch of an integrated telehealth initiative. Several early-stage companies have approached ProPhase, and discussions are underway to leverage these partnerships and cross-sell its suite of health and genomic services.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure and Reconciliation
In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results of operations as determined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures. The primary non-GAAP financial measures we disclose are EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization from continuing operations. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA by excluding acquisition costs, other non-cash items, and other unusual or non-recurring charges (as described in the table below).
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting, differ from GAAP measures with the same names and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar names that are used by other companies. We compute non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter and year to year. We may consider whether other significant items that arise in the future should be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures.
We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA internally to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations because we believe they provide useful supplemental information regarding the Company’s ongoing economic performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating results primarily because they exclude amounts that are not considered part of ongoing operating results when planning and forecasting and when assessing the performance of the organization. In addition, we believe that non-GAAP financial information is used by analysts and others in the investment community to analyze our historical results and in providing estimates of future performance and that failure to report these non-GAAP measures could result in confusion among analysts and others and create a misplaced perception that our results have underperformed or exceeded expectations.
The following table sets forth the reconciliations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations excluding other costs to the most comparable GAAP financial measures (in thousands):
For the years ended | ||||||||
December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |||||||
GAAP loss from continuing operations (1) | $ | (49,525 | ) | $ | (16,380 | ) | ||
Interest, net | 3,350 | 1,188 | ||||||
Income tax expense | 7,195 | (6,018 | ) | |||||
Depreciation and amortization | 6,187 | 6,050 | ||||||
EBITDA | (32,793 | ) | (15,160 | ) | ||||
Share-based compensation expense | 3,638 | 3,536 | ||||||
Non-cash rent expense (2) | 240 | 117 | ||||||
Credit loss expense | 11,018 | 91 | ||||||
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations | $ | (17,897 | ) | $ | (11,416 | ) |
(1) We believe that net loss from continuing operations is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that is most directly comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA measure the Company’s operating performance without regard to certain expenses. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and the Company’s computation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in the industry. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.
(2) The non-cash portion of rent, which reflects the extent to which our GAAP rent expense recognized exceeds (or is less than) our cash rent payments. For newer leases, our rent expense recognized typically exceeds our cash rent payments, while for more mature leases, rent expense recognized is typically less than our cash rent payments.
