    • Storage and Storage Services platform revenue was $6.7 million, up $810,000, or 14%, over the same period in 2021. COVID-19 related revenue in 2022 was approximately 21% for this platform.
  • Total revenue for 2022 was $161.8 million, an increase of $42.6 million, or 36%, from $119.2 million for 2021. Organic revenue growth was 38%. COVID-19 related revenue was approximately 8%, compared with approximately 15% in 2021.

GROSS MARGIN

  • Gross margin (GAAP) for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 30% compared with 13% for the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 32% compared with 17% for the fourth quarter of 2021.
  • Gross margin (GAAP) for 2022 was 30% compared with 27% for 2021. Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) for 2022 was 33% compared with 32% for 2021.
  • The increase in quarterly gross margin and adjusted gross margin was primarily due to decreased warranty expenses compared with 2021.

OPERATING EXPENSE

  • Operating expense (GAAP) for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $93.5 million compared with $54.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted operating expense (non-GAAP) for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $22.1 million compared with $19.2 million for the fourth quarter 2021.
  • Operating expense (GAAP) for 2022 was $307.3 million compared with $154.3 million for 2021. Adjusted operating expense (non-GAAP) for 2022 was $83.4 million compared with $59.6 million for 2021.
  • The increase in GAAP operating expense for the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily due to a non-cash impairment charge of $40.5 million related to the acquired intangible assets of Global Cooling, Inc. (Stirling Ultracold). The increase in GAAP operating expense for 2022 was primarily due to non-cash impairment charges of $110.4 million related to the acquired intangible assets of Global Cooling, full period of ownership following the acquisition of Global Cooling on May 3, 2021, and the acquisition of Sexton Biotechnologies, Inc. on September 1, 2021, and personnel costs. Adjusted operating expenses (non-GAAP) increased due to the full period of ownership from the acquisition of Global Cooling and the acquisition of Sexton, Inc. In addition, operating expenses increased due to higher accounting costs related to becoming an Accelerated Filer, additional headcount to support our growth, and historical true-up of indirect tax expense.

  • Additional approvals of CGT in new indications
  • Migration of commercial therapies to first or second-line treatment

We remain confident that we will achieve our Q4 2024 run rate aspirational financial goals of $250 million in revenue, 50 points of adjusted gross margin and 30 points of adjusted EBITDA."

BioLife Solutions is reaffirming 2023 revenue guidance, which is based on expectations for its existing business.

Revenue guidance for 2023 does not include any COVID-19-related revenue.

Expectations for 2023 total revenue include the following platform contributions:

  • Cell processing platform: $89.0 million to $93.0 million, an increase of 30% to 35% over 2022.
  • Freezers and Thaw Systems platform: $72.5 million to $79.0 million, an increase of 9% to 18% over 2022. Excluding COVID-19-related revenue, year-over-year growth of 13% to 23%.
