Key takeaways

What improved, and what deserves a closer read.

Constructive signals

  • Q1 revenue $65.8M, up 40.5% year-over-year, with TriLink base revenue up 15.4%
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $20.3M versus $(10.5)M in Q1 2025
  • Returned to positive free cash flow of $4.2M, first positive quarter since Q3 2024

Risks & pressure points

  • Net loss of $(6.4) million reported in Q1 2026
  • Cygnus revenue grew only 1.4% year-over-year, with lower contribution from China due to distributor ordering timing
  • Quarter-over-quarter performance can vary due to disproportionate large-order concentration aligned with customer program progression
  • Exposure to large-order timing and dependence on continued COVID-related CleanCap orders ($14.3M in the quarter)
