Recent Updates
Revenue was $165.0 million for the fourth quarter and $610.8 million for the full year of 2024, representing 10% and 1% decreases over the corresponding periods of 2023.
In collaboration with the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) and Ultima Genomics, launched the Billion Cells Project, an effort to generate an unprecedented one billion cell dataset to fuel rapid progress in AI model development in biology.
Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities were $393.4 million as of December 31, 2024, an increase of $4.7 million over prior year.
"In 2024, we launched major new products across all three of our platforms and we made changes to our commercial organization and go-to-market strategy," said Serge Saxonov, Co-founder and CEO of 10x Genomics. "As we kick off 2025, our goal is to take advantage of these changes and deliver consistent execution. Despite the current uncertainty within U.S. academic research, we continue to have strong conviction in the large opportunity ahead."
Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Revenue was $165.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, a 10% decrease from $184.0 million for the corresponding period.
Gross margin was 67% for the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to 63% for the corresponding prior year period. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to change in product mix.
Operating expenses were $160.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a 6% decrease from $171.0 million for the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by a $19.6 million in-process research and development expense related to an agreement to acquire certain intangible and other assets in the prior year period, partially offset by an increase in outside litigation expenses.
Operating loss was $49.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to an operating loss of $55.2 million for the corresponding prior year period. Operating loss includes $32.5 million of stock-based compensation for the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to $38.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2023.
Net loss was $49.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to a net loss of $49.0 million for the corresponding prior year period.
Full Year 2024 Financial Results
Revenue was $610.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, a 1% decrease from $618.7 million for 2023.
Gross margin was 68% for full year 2024, as compared to 66% for 2023. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to change in product mix.
Operating expenses were $609.0 million for full year 2024, as compared to $674.6 million for 2023, an decrease of 10%. The decrease was primarily driven by a $61.0 million in-process research and development expense related to an agreement to acquire certain intangible and other assets in the prior year period and lower personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by higher outside legal expenses.
Operating loss was $194.6 million for full year 2024, as compared to an operating loss of $265.3 million for 2023. This includes $140.7 million of stock-based compensation for full year 2024, as compared to $167.0 million for full year 2023.
Net loss was $182.6 million for full year 2024, as compared to a net loss of $255.1 million for 2023.
Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities were $393.4 million as of December 31, 2024.
2025 Financial Guidance
10x Genomics expects full year 2025 revenue to be in the range of $610 million to $630 million, representing 0% to 3% growth over full year 2024. At the midpoint, this guidance implies double-digit growth for both Chromium reactions and overall spatial revenue.
