Chief Executive Officer Doug Doerfler said: ‘2023 has been a challenging year across the life sciences industry. An evolving funding environment continues to result in the prioritisation of
internal pipeline assets by companies, impacting the timing of research and early clinical
development projects.’ He added that the company remained positive on delivering long-term financial and strategic goals.
Looking ahead, CEO Doerfler said: ‘We will continue to make the necessary investments into key aspects of our technology and support offering, including our applications lab, and process development capabilities, which we believe enable us to provide invaluable support to our partners as they advance through the clinic and towards commercialisation.’
MaxCyte shares were 5.9% lower at 320.00 pence each in London on Thursday morning.
