- Revenues split 73% to Protein Sciences and 27% to Diagnostics & Spatial Biology, the latter down slightly after the Exosome Diagnostics divestiture.
- The company is targeting three high-growth applications: cell therapies (addressable market of $2 billion, ~20% CAGR) , proteomic analytical instruments ($4 billion TAM) , and spatial biology ($5 billion market).
- Over the past five years, Bio-Techne delivered a 10% revenue CAGR and in FY 2025 achieved 5% organic growth with a 9% operating margin, underpinned by productivity and strategic investment.
- FY2025 revenue exceeded $1.2 billion, driven by Protein Sciences (73 %) and Diagnostics & Spatial Biology (27 %).
- Adjusted operating income reached $384 million in 2025, up from $246 million in 2020.
- Company addresses a $27 billion total addressable market, including $14 billion in discovery, $5 billion in advanced therapeutics, and $8 billion in precision diagnostics.
- Focused on three strategic growth vectors: cell-based systems & therapies, high-value proteomic applications, and spatial multiomic interrogation.
- Bio-Techne leverages a 50-year core reagents business with four high-growth verticals: cell therapy, proteomics, spatial biology, and molecular diagnostics.
- Q1 FY2026 highlights include double-digit growth in large pharma, China back to growth, spatial biology bookings up double digits, and margins of 29.9% versus a 20% forecast, offset by a near-term “air pocket” in cell therapy after two customers received FDA Fast Track approvals.
- Biopharma represents 50% of revenue with large pharma (30% of revenue) growing double digits and biotech pressured by mid-teens funding declines but showing improvement; academic research (20% of revenue) faces US budget uncertainty with funding shifting toward neurology, oncology, and weight management.
- Full-year FY2026 guidance expects single-digit growth as headwinds in biotech and academic markets persist, with management targeting a return to double-digit growth in a normalized environment and anticipating easier comps in the back half of the year.
- Bio-Techne detailed its core reagents applied across four high-growth verticals—cell therapy, proteomics, spatial biology, and molecular diagnostics—leveraging 7,000 proteins and 400,000 antibodies built over 50 years.
- In Q1 FY2026, revenues benefited from Fast Track designations in cell therapy customers and growth in large pharma (double-digit for three consecutive quarters), China returned to positive growth, spatial biology bookings accelerated, and operating margin expanded to 29.9%.
- The company launched several innovations, including ProPak form factors for cell therapy, the Leo high-throughput protein analysis instrument, multi-omics spatial assays, protein–protein interaction mapping, and an ESR1 breast cancer resistance diagnostic.
- Bio-Techne expects single-digit growth in FY2026 due to academic funding and biotech headwinds, with markets stabilizing, easier comparables in H2, and a return to double-digit growth in normalized conditions.
- Q1 FY25 revenue declined –1% YoY; excluding headwinds from two large iPSC cell therapy customers (≈200 bps), underlying growth was +1%.
- Q2 FY25 overall growth is guided at –1% YoY; adjusting for a 400 bps customer headwind, ex-customers growth is expected at +3%, driven by ProteinSimple and Spatial Biology in a stabilizing market.
- Pharma end-market (30% of revenue) returned to double-digit growth in Q1 FY25, while U.S. academic sales improved to low single-digit declines as NIH funding stabilized around flat budgets.
- Two fast-tracked iPSC customers paused purchases through FY25; commercialization is projected ~18 months post–Phase III, with each customer potentially generating $40 – 50 million annually at mid-maturity.
- Diagnostics segment grew mid-single digits in Q1 FY25 on top of a mid-teen comp last year, with customers indicating a more even pull-through cadence across FY25.
- Q1 FY25 revenue was -1%, with two large cell therapy customers contributing a 200 bps headwind; excluding them, growth was +1% and is forecasted at +3% ex-customers in Q2 (headwind of 400 bps).
- Biotech funding improved from –30% to –13% YTD by November 2025, with a typical 2–3 quarter lag expected before supporting a Biotech end-market recovery around FY27.
- ProteinSimple and Spatial Biology are key growth drivers: Spatial bookings rose double-digits in Q1 and reagents turned positive, while ProteinSimple historically outperforms in stabilized markets.
- Diagnostics (controls, calibrators and exosome-based kits) grew mid-single digits in Q1 on top of mid-teen comps last year and is anticipated to be more evenly lumpy throughout FY25.
- Company expects ~100 bps operating margin expansion for FY25, driven by higher consumables pull-through and improving organic growth; COMET platform break-even anticipated in ~1 year.
- Q1 organic revenue declined 1%, with 90 bps of margin expansion; results would have been a 1% increase excluding deferrals from two cell therapy customers after FDA Fast Track designations.
- Large pharma (30% of revenues) achieved its third consecutive quarter of double-digit growth; China posted its second straight quarter of organic revenue growth.
- The Spatial platform stabilized at flat growth, reagents turned positive, and instrument bookings rose double digits, indicating a recovery in the academic/biotech segment.
- Small biotech (~20% of revenue) fell high single digits in Q1 amid a 30% YTD drop in funding, but funding has improved monthly, suggesting market stabilization ahead.
- Academic & government (~20% of revenue) saw mid-single-digit growth in Europe and U.S. declines narrowed to low single digits as flat NIH budgets became more likely.
- Q1 organic revenue declined by 1%, driven by double-digit growth in large pharma (30% of revenue), second quarter of organic growth in China, robust ProteinSimple consumables, spatial stabilization, and 90 bps margin expansion despite cell therapy headwinds.
- Biotech exposure (~20% of revenue) fell high single digits in Q1 amid a 30% YTD funding decline, but four consecutive months of year-over-year funding increases point to market stabilization.
- Academic & government segment (~20% of revenue) saw mid-single-digit growth in Europe and US declines narrow from high to low single digits as NIH budget is expected to be flat, reducing customer uncertainty.
- The company expects Q2 results similar to Q1, with underlying markets to strengthen to low single-digit growth, and the back half of fiscal 2026 poised to benefit from easier year-over-year comps and share gains.
- FDA Fast Track consolidation of Phase II/III for two cell therapy customers caused a ~$26 M headwind (~200 bps) in fiscal 2026; the cell & gene portfolio includes ~700 customers with ~85 in clinical trials, and the Wilson Wolf acquisition is planned for fiscal 2028 to fuel future growth.
