BioLife Solutions Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results, Updates Full Year 2023 Guidance and Provides Pro Forma First Half 2023 Financial Profile Excluding Freezer Business
Committed to Divesting Stirling Ultracold and Custom Biogenic Systems by End of 2023
Conference call begins at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time today
BOTHELL, Wash. (August 8, 2023) – BioLife Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLFS) (“BioLife” or the “Company”), a leading supplier of class-defining bioproduction tools and services for the cell and gene therapy (CGT) and broader biopharma markets, today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months of 2023 and updated guidance for the full year 2023. Management is also providing a first half 2023 financial profile of certain pro forma financial metrics excluding Stirling Ultracold (Stirling) and Custom Biogenic Systems (CBS) freezer assets, both of which management intends to divest by December 31, 2023.
Mike Rice, Chairman and CEO, commented, “Subsequent to the end of the second quarter 2023, after considering other strategic alternatives, management and the board of directors have determined that divesting our Stirling and CBS freezer assets would optimize the performance of our product portfolio by focusing on recurring higher margin streams and create the most shareholder value. We made significant progress to achieve this objective and based on the level of interest and the feedback we have received so far; we are fully committed to starting 2024 without the impact of the freezer product lines. We continue to appreciate the value of the related IP, products and teams, and believe a buyer or buyers will materialize that can continue to provide global access to these innovative products in a cost structure that fits their financial requirements.”
Management anticipates reclassifying the freezer product lines as Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations in the second half of 2023 when the accounting criteria are met.
To assist investors with understanding the positive impacts of these potential divestitures, the Company is now providing certain unaudited pro forma financial information had the divestitures occurred on January 1, 2023. This unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not intended to represent or be indicative of the results had the divestiture occurred at an earlier date and should not be taken as representative of our future consolidated results of operations or financial condition. Preparation of this certain unaudited pro forma financial information required management to make certain judgments and estimates to determine the adjustments based on information currently available, which is subject to management’s ongoing process as part of the divestiture transaction. Actual results may differ from the assumptions used to present this certain unaudited pro forma financial information.
The following table illustrates BioLife’s financial results for the first half of 2023 excluding revenues and costs associated with our freezer assets.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) for the pro forma results excluding freezers was calculated utilizing certain estimates and judgments by management utilizing the most updated information available at this time. Given that estimated results may vary, a range of Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue was provided. Due to the level of estimation required, actual results may differ from assumptions used to present this pro forma information.
Mike Rice, Chairman and CEO, further commented, “We are confident the portfolio of high value recurring products and services, and expected strong resulting financial profile, after the divestiture of the freezer businesses, will better align BioLife to the attractive growth and profitability opportunities for a key supplier to the CGT industry. We sell critical CGT products that are sole-sourced from BioLife. These are not one-time buys but rather consumables that need to be replenished. We have a strong brand and track record with limited competitive substitutes. Our CGT customers participate in an emerging class of therapeutic modalities that are just now becoming real, and we naturally expect demand for our products to increase as they progress their programs. The reality is just that right now, the economy is tighter, and the participants in this ecosystem all want to reduce cash burn.”
Sustained catalysts that we expect to drive BioLife growth due to a significant increase in the number of manufactured doses include:
•Approvals of new cell and gene therapies
•Additional approvals of commercial CGT in new geographies
•Additional approvals of CGT in new indications
•Migration of commercial therapies to first or second-line treatment
•An eventual transition to allogeneic therapies
In the near term, results continue to be impacted by constraints pressuring the broader bioprocessing sector including the following factors:
•Macro headwinds of global economic uncertainty causing reduced biotech spending across our customer base not only for capital equipment but also consumables. We believe these are more transitory, and similar to the outlooks of our bioprocessing peers, anticipate a recovery in 2024 as customer supply chain dynamics improve.
•Cell processing revenue concentration and lumpiness caused by:
◦Destocking by our largest direct customer compared to prior year period.
◦Slowed growth from our largest distributor compared to prior period, caused by several of their downstream clinical customers having to complete validation of a new media product final container we introduced to mitigate supply chain shortages.

•Several clinical CGT customers’ reduced spending due to reduced clinical trial activity (trial early termination, pauses between phases and delayed patient enrollment).
•Manufacturing bottlenecks at some CGT customers or their related CMOs due to capacity constraints and/or shortages of raw materials from other suppliers.
Troy Wichterman, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “While near term results are disappointing, we remain confident in the mid- and long-term growth potential for BioLife and our ability to generate cash flows from operations post our freezer divestitures."

◦Freezers and Thaw Systems platform revenue was $13.9 million, down $4.8 million, or 26%, over the same period in 2022. Ex-COVID related revenue was down $4.1 million, or 23%, over the same period in 2022.

GROSS MARGIN
•Gross margin (GAAP) for the second quarter of 2023 was 28% compared with 33% for the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) for the second quarter of 2023 was 35% compared with 36% for the second quarter of 2022.

•The decrease in gross margin for the second quarter of 2023 was primarily due to increases in personnel expenses and an inventory reserve related to potentially unusable final product containers from a key supplier. The increase in gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to a favorable product mix in our biopreservation media product line and a greater concentration of higher margin revenue as a percentage of total revenue in comparison to the same period in 2022.
OPERATING EXPENSE
•Operating expense (GAAP) for the second quarter of 2023 was $54.8 million compared with $117.1 million for the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted operating expense (non-GAAP) for the second quarter of 2023 was $22.2 million compared with $20.3 million for the second quarter 2022.

Page 4
3303 Monte Villa Parkway, Suite 310 | Bothell, WA 98021 USA | 866.424.6543 phone | BioLifeSolutions.com
•The decrease in GAAP operating expenses is primarily due to the $69.9 million intangible asset impairment charge that occurred in Q2 2022. The increase in non-GAAP operating expenses for the three and six months ended of June 30, 2023 was primarily due to increases in professional services fees and employee compensation costs from an increase in headcount compared to the prior year.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in assessing our operating performance. We use these financial measures internally to evaluate our operating performance and for planning and forecasting of future periods. We also believe it is in the best interests of investors to provide this non-GAAP information.
While we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be reported by competitors, and they may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to differences in calculation methodologies. The non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative to GAAP information and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures.
