BioLife Solutions Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Financial Results
Fourth quarter Cell Processing revenue up 11% sequentially to $14.8 million, and positive adjusted EBITDA of $700,000
Expects 2024 revenue of $95.5 - $100.0 million excluding freezer business and positive adjusted EBITDA
Conference call begins at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time today
BOTHELL, Wash. (February 29, 2024) – BioLife Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLFS) (“BioLife” or the “Company”), a leading supplier of biopreservation media and other cell processing tools and biostorage services for the cell and gene therapy (CGT) and broader biopharma markets, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023, and introduces 2024 revenue guidance.
“In 2023, as the pharmaceutical industry was rationalizing spend and capex, our low margin slow-growth freezer franchise was obfuscating the value of BioLife’s high-margin, class-defining consumable bioproduction media, tools, and services. Recognizing this reality and committed to increasing shareholder value, the BioLife Team commenced a business reprioritization. The effort led to a hyper focus on the high margin consumable offering and an effort to divest the freezer franchise.
In the fourth quarter we saw a double-digit sequential increase in our core cell processing revenues and the commencement of the divestiture, with the goal of finalizing a sale by the end of the first quarter” said Roderick de Greef, Chairman and CEO.
“The divestiture matched with a doubling down on our higher margin recurring revenue streams will have an immediate and positive impact on our financial profile. Add to this, early signs from our business leaders and customers of industry clouds clearing, we expect similar momentum into 2024 and the potential for accelerating growth in the back of the year” added de Greef.
Fourth Quarter 2023 Business Highlights
•Processed 22 new U.S. FDA Master File cross references for our biopreservation media, bringing the total processed in 2023 to 82, and the cumulative total to 694.
•Based on two additional approvals in the fourth quarter, the Company’s biopreservation media was embedded in 13 unique approved cell and gene therapies as of December 31, 2023, with an expectation that 10 additional unique approvals, geographic expansions or new indications will occur in the next 12 months.
•Executive management changes including the appointment of Roderick de Greef as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Garrie Richardson as Chief Revenue Officer.
de Greef continued, “Cell and gene therapies are gaining traction in the clinic and as approvals continue to gain momentum, our business will grow proportionally. With the FDA approval of the

first tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy two weeks ago, our biopreservation media products are now embedded in 14 unique approved commercial cell and gene therapies. Over the next 12 months, we believe our media could be embedded in 10 additional unique approvals, geographic expansions, or new indications. Add to this a position in roughly 70% of commercially sponsored CGT trials in the US, we believe BioLife is set up to have a long runway and substantial growth and market dominance for years to come. We have a unique and proprietary technology that has taken a long time to embed in the CGT field, and moving forward we are excited to harvest the fruits of that labor.”

2024 Revenue Guidance
BioLife Solutions is introducing 2024 revenue guidance of $95.5 million to $100.0 million. This is based on expectations for our Cell Processing platform and our Biostorage and Services platform, which now includes results from our ThawStar product line, and does not include revenue from our freezer product lines, which are in the process of being divested, as follows:
•Cell Processing platform: $66.0 million to $68.5 million, a growth rate of 0% to 4% compared with 2023. Compared with annualizing the second half of 2023 revenue run rate, the 2024 revenue guidance for this platform represents growth of 17% to 22%.
•Biostorage and Services platform: $29.5 million to $31.5 million, an increase of 5% to 12% compared with 2023. This platform now includes the ThawStar automated thawing product line, so on a like for like basis, the growth would be 10% to 16%.
Management expects full year positive adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA growth in 2024.

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.
