## 10x Genomics Reports Q3 2024 Earnings: Revenue Dips Amid Restructuring and Market Headwinds
Pleasanton, California – October 29, 2024 – 10x Genomics, Inc. (TXG), a leading innovator in single-cell and spatial biology, released its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024. The company reported revenue of $151.7 million, a slight 1% decrease compared to the same period in 2023. This decline was primarily driven by lower instrument revenue, offset by stronger performance in consumables.
Despite the revenue dip, 10x Genomics made significant strides in product development and market expansion during the quarter. The company commenced shipping GEM-X Flex, a revolutionary technology that sets a new standard for cost-per-cell analysis, enabling researchers to analyze millions of cells for less than one cent per cell. GEM-X Flex also introduces key improvements specifically valuable for analyzing clinical FFPE samples.
10x Genomics also introduced GEM-X Universal Multiplex, allowing researchers to conduct more cost-effective single-cell studies, reducing the cost-per-sample even for smaller experiments. Additionally, the company began shipping Chromium Xo, a budget-friendly instrument designed for routine, high-performance single-cell analysis.
“Our results this quarter fell short of our expectations due to the greater-than-anticipated disruption from the sales restructuring we implemented during the quarter and cautious customer spending,” stated Serge Saxonov, Co-founder and CEO of 10x Genomics. “While these dynamics persist, particularly within a challenging macroeconomic environment, our revenue growth this year will be lower than our previous projections.”
Despite these challenges, Saxonov expressed confidence in the company’s future growth prospects, stating, “I am confident that the steps we are taking will enable us to reach more customers, execute consistently across our portfolio, and drive the broad democratization of our technologies to reach the full potential of the large opportunity ahead.”
