Precipio Announces its Q1-2025 Financial Results

NEW HAVEN, Conn., May 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Specialty cancer diagnostics company Precipio, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRPO), filed its 10-Q report today. The following are the highlights of the Company’s financial performance and outlook for 2025. “We remain confident in the Company’s trajectory, supported by strong year-over-year revenue growth, improved gross margins, disciplined cost control and increasing operational efficiency”, said Ilan Danieli, Precipio’s CEO. “With our expectation of momentum building in our Product business pipeline, as well as the expanded reimbursement opportunities in Pathology Services, we anticipate continued revenue growth and a return to positive operating cash flow by Q2 or Q3. We believe 2025 will be a transformative year in which scalable growth translates into improved results and long-term shareholder value.” Q1-2025 Financial Results: Revenues. Q1-2025 revenues reached $4.9M, representing a 43% increase YoY. The quarter reported a decrease of 9.5% from Q4-2024 as a result of anticipated slower seasonal revenues in pathology and temporary delays in customer onboarding and operational ramp-up on the products side.Adjusted EBITDA. Q1-2025 Adjusted EBITDA was ($108K) vs ($1,409K) YoY, a significant improvement of 92% resulting from both revenue growth and cost management initiatives.Cash flow. Change in cash used in operations was ($44K) in Q1-2025 vs ($667K) in the same quarter last year, an improvement of 93%. Net cash used in Q1-2025 was ($372K) vs ($726K) in Q1-2024, an improvement of 49%. Management anticipated a decline in cash receipts in Q1 due to seasonal delays typical in the industry from renewed insurance plans and deductibles. Management expects to return to positive cash flow from operations in Q2 or Q3 of this year and to maintain adequate cash reserves for operations throughout. Furthermore, in Q2 we have already received approximately $400,000 in non-recurring income from a refundable employee retention credit that was part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), which the U.S. Congress enacted in March of 2020. Products Division Summary: In Q1-2025 the Company successfully onboarded one new customer and launched two new panels, and is anticipating increased orders in Q2 and going forward. Additionally, two existing customers began their validations for four new panels collectively. Customer meetings generated by our distributors are trending upwards as well, a positive indication that the work developing these sales channels is beginning to bear fruit. Additionally, the recent reversal of the FDA ruling regarding Laboratory Developed Tests (LDTs) removes a barrier that concerned certain laboratories, causing them to pause their engagement with the Company until the courts resolved this matter. Pathology Services Division Summary: In Q1-2025, Pathology Services division revenues grew 54% YoY, and test volume increased by 46% YoY from Q1-2024. Additionally, 11 ordering physicians began using our Pathology Services for the first time. Precipio also received MolDx approval for NGS testing, enabling Medicare billing for patients - a milestone that we anticipate will positively impact future revenue from Medicare populations. Gross margins, operating expenses: Product’s division gross margins have increased YoY from 37% to 51%Pathology Services division gross margins have increased YoY from 24% to 42%Overall gross margins have increased YoY from 27% to 43% Company management expects that Pathology Services division’s gross margins will stabilize at the mid-40%, and that Product division’s gross margins will continue to grow as increased revenue in 2025 drives greater production efficiencies. We expect that the Company’s combined margins will continue to climb during 2025 as the revenue mix includes more product sales. Operating expenses as a percent of net revenue have dropped from 87% to 61% YoY. This decrease is mostly due to the Company’s ability to maintain operating expenses flat at approximately $3M per quarter while increasing revenues 43% YoY. While our financial outlook is based on the best available information and management’s current expectations, it is inherently subject to a variety of risks, assumptions, and uncertainties that may cause actual outcomes to differ materially. Investors are encouraged to review the Forward-Looking Statements section below for a detailed understanding of these factors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation and Explanation EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely used to evaluate operational performance and pre-tax profitability. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with a useful perspective on the company’s financial health, particularly where non-cash amortization has an important impact on profitability. Adjusted EBITDA as we define it will also exclude the non-cash costs of employee stock options and unusual, one-time costs.
