First Quarter Ended March 31, 2025 FinancialResults
Total revenues were $501.8 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $367.7 million in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 36.5%. The increase in total revenues was driven primarily by a 37.1% increase in product revenues, which were $500.0 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $364.7 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in product revenues was primarily driven by an increase in volume and average selling price improvements, as well as cash receipts that were collected during the quarter in excess of initial revenue estimates for tests delivered in prior quarters.
Natera processed approximately 855,100 tests in the first quarter of 2025, including approximately 840,800 tests accessioned in its laboratory, compared to approximately 735,800 tests processed, including approximately 718,700 tests accessioned in its laboratory, in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 16.2% from the prior period.
In the first quarter of 2025, Natera recognized revenue on approximately 804,800 tests for which results were reported to customers in the period (tests reported), including approximately 791,400 tests reported from its laboratory, compared to approximately 679,400 tests reported, including approximately 663,500 tests reported from its laboratory, in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 18.5% from the prior period.
Gross profit^2^ for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $316.8 million and $208.6 million, respectively, representing a gross margin of 63.1% and 56.7%, respectively. Natera had higher gross margin in the first quarter of 2025 primarily as a result of higher revenues, continued progress in reducing cost of revenues associated with tests processed, as well as incremental cash receipts during the quarter in excess of initial revenue estimates for tests delivered in the prior period. Total operating expenses, representing research and development expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, for the first quarter of 2025 were $395.9 million, compared to $282.9 million in the same period of the prior year, an increase of 39.9%. The increase was primarily driven by headcount growth to support new product offerings as well as increases in consulting and legal expenses.
Loss from operations for the first quarter of 2025 was $79.2 million compared to $74.3 million for the same period of the prior year.
Natera reported a net loss for the first quarter of 2025 of $66.9 million, or ($0.50) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $67.6 million, or ($0.56) per diluted share, for the same period in 2024. Weighted average shares outstanding were approximately 134.8 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to 120.8 million in the first quarter of the prior year.
At March 31, 2025, Natera held approximately $991.6 million in cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash, compared to $968.3 million as of December 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2025, Natera had a total outstanding debt balance of $80.3 million including accrued interest under its line of credit with UBS at a variable interest rate of 30-day SOFR plus 50 bps.
Financial Outlook
Natera anticipates 2025 total revenue of $1.94 billion to $2.02 billion; 2025 gross margin to be approximately 60% to 64% of revenues; selling, general and administrative costs to be approximately $0.975 billion to $1.05 billion; research and development costs to be $550 million to $590 million; and net cash inflow to be positive^3^.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements under the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts, including statements regarding its market opportunity, anticipated products and launch schedules, reimbursement coverage and product costs, commercial and strategic partnerships and acquisitions, user experience, clinical trials and studies, and its strategies, goals and general business and market conditions, are forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based upon Natera’s current plans, estimates, and expectations, as of the date of this release, and are not a representation that such plans, estimates, or expectations will be achieved.
These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially, including: we face numerous uncertainties and challenges in achieving our financial projections and goals; we may be unable to further increase the use and adoption of our products through our direct sales efforts or through our laboratory partners; we have incurred net losses since our inception and we anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future; our quarterly results may fluctuate from period to period; our estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth may prove to be inaccurate; we may be unable to compete successfully with existing or future products or services offered by our competitors; we may engage in acquisitions, dispositions or other strategic transactions that may not achieve our anticipated benefits and could otherwise disrupt our business, cause dilution to our stockholders or reduce our financial resources; our products may not perform as expected; the results of our clinical studies may not support the use and reimbursement of our tests, particularly for microdeletions screening, and may not be able to be replicated in later studies required for regulatory approvals or clearances; if either of our primary CLIA-certified laboratories becomes inoperable, we will be unable to perform our tests and our business will be harmed; we rely on a limited number of suppliers or, in some cases, single suppliers, for some of our laboratory instruments and materials and may not be able to find replacements or immediately transition to alternative suppliers; if we are unable to successfully scale our operations, our business could suffer; the marketing, sale, and use of Panorama and our other products could result in substantial damages arising from product liability or professional liability claims that exceed our resources; we may be unable to expand, obtain or maintain third-party payer coverage and reimbursement for our tests, and we may be required to refund reimbursements already received; third-party payers may withdraw coverage or provide lower levels of reimbursement due to changing policies, billing complexities or other factors; we could incur substantial costs and delays complying with governmental regulations, including recently enacted FDA regulations regarding LDTs; litigation and other regulatory or governmental proceedings, related to our intellectual property or the commercialization of our tests, are costly, time- consuming, could result in our obligation to pay material judgments or incur material settlement costs, and could limit our ability to commercialize our tests; and any inability to effectively protect our proprietary technology could harm our competitive position or our brand..
We discuss these and other risks and uncertainties in greater detail in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our periodic reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q and in other filings that we make with the SEC from time to time. These documents are available on our website at www.natera.com under the Investor Relations section and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this presentation to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.
