SAN DIEGO, Jan. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bionano Genomics, Inc. (Nasdaq: BNGO) today reported certain unaudited preliminary financial and commercial highlights for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Company’s full results for the fourth quarter and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 are not yet available.
“2023 was a year in which we saw consistent progress in our business, and we ended the year with a lot of momentum across all facets of our business,” commented Erik Holmlin, PhD, president and chief executive officer of Bionano. “In addition to Bionano’s efforts to advance OGM, our user base has independently organized to advocate for OGM as an alternative to traditional cytogenetic methods, with user groups convening across the globe and an international consortium of researchers publishing a framework for the adoption and implementation of OGM. We believe the progress of OGM in 2023, combined with our achievement of our ELEVATE milestones and our cost savings initiatives and financing, have positioned us for success in 2024.”

Achieved All Full-Year 2023 ELEVATE! Milestones
“In 2023, we secured additional financing and announced a series of cost savings initiatives that will continue into this year. We remain focused on financial discipline and implementing actionable processes that we believe will enable us to improve margins and further extend our cash runway. I believe in the power of OGM and that 2024 has the potential to be a tremendous year for Bionano,” added Gülsen Kama, chief financial officer of Bionano.
Bionano has not completed preparation of its financial statements for the fourth quarter or full year of 2023. The financial performance measures presented in this press release for the fourth quarter of 2023 and for the year ended December 31, 2023 are preliminary and unaudited, based on management’s initial review of the information presented, and are thus inherently uncertain and subject to change as Bionano completes its end-of-period reporting process and related activities for the fourth quarter of and full year 2023. Bionano is in the process of completing its customary year-end close and review procedures as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the final results for this period could differ from the preliminary estimated results disclosed in this press release. During the course of the preparation of Bionano’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, Bionano’s independent registered public accountants may identify items that could cause final reported results to be materially different from the preliminary estimates presented herein. Additional information and disclosures would be required for a more complete understanding of Bionano’s financial position and results of operations as of and for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on this preliminary information.
