KAILUA KONA, Hawaii--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cyanotech Corporation (OTCQB: CYAN), a world leader in microalgae-based, high-value nutrition and health dietary supplement products, announced financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2025, ended December 31, 2024.

The increase in our gross profit to 35.3% reflects the positive results of those efforts.
