Cytek Biosciences Discusses Q3 Performance, Market Growth, and New Product Adoption
CTKB
Guidance Update
Product Launch
Revenue Acceleration/Inflection
  • Cytek Biosciences reported positive revenue growth in Q3 and reiterated guidance, with management suggesting a potential return to normal growth and a bottoming in the overall flow cytometry market.
  • 85% of Cytek's business, encompassing service, reagents, and instruments (excluding Europe), is experiencing double-digit growth, with strong performance anticipated in Asia-Pac and stabilization in the US.
  • The company launched the Aurora Evo in June, an instrument designed for pharmaceutical companies with advanced features like automated operations and higher throughput, which is expected to comprise a large majority of future instrument sales due to its price premium and capabilities.
  • Reagent revenue is a key growth driver, increasing at a double-digit rate (close to 20% year-over-year), significantly outpacing the broader market's 1% growth in Q3, and represents a potential $150 million to $200 million opportunity from the installed base.
  • Challenges in the European market for instrument sales in 2025 were attributed to a slowdown in biopharma spending and reduced government funding, though this segment constitutes only 15% of the total business, and the rate of decline is expected to slow in Q4 2025.
