Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Revenue was $4.1 million for the third quarter of 2025, a 2% increase from $4.0 million for the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to higher product sales and service revenue in the quarter. Product revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $2.8 million and consisted of sales of Proteograph instruments and consumable kits. Service revenue was $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2025, including $300 thousand of related party revenue, and primarily consisted of revenue related to Seer Technology Access Center service projects. Other revenue was $152 thousand for the third quarter of 2025.
Gross profit was $2.1 million and gross margin was 51% for the third quarter of 2025.

The decrease in operating expenses was primarily driven by a reduction in stock-based compensation, business expenses, and allocated costs.
Net loss was $18.2 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $21.3 million for the corresponding prior year period.
Cash, cash equivalents and investments were approximately $251.2 million as of September 30, 2025.
