OraSure Announces Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

BETHLEHEM, Pa., Nov. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OraSure Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSUR), a leader in point-of-need and home diagnostic tests and sample management solutions, today announced its financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

“In Q3 we delivered $27.1 million of revenue. While some of our customers continue to experience elevated levels of uncertainty related to funding for public health programs and research, we remain confident in our opportunities to return to growth in 2026, driven by diversification in our customer base and contributions from planned launches of new products in both rapid diagnostics and sample management solutions,” said Carrie Eglinton Manner, President and CEO of OTI.

She continued, “OTI’s focus on decentralizing diagnostics and connecting people to care that is more accessible, convenient, private, and personalized is well-aligned with important long-term trends in the healthcare industry. We believe that this strategy and our capabilities position us for sustainable, long-term growth. Additionally, our strong balance sheet provides us with flexibility to navigate the current short-term turbulence while we advance our innovation roadmap and prepare for important new products that are expected to launch next year, including our Sherlock over-the-counter molecular self-test for Chlamydia and Gonorrhoeae and our Colli-Pee urine self-collection for sexually transmitted infections.”

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, the Company’s financial results and financial guidance are provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP operating income (loss), and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share. Management believes that presentation of operating results using these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company’s core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods, while excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of the Company’s recurring core business operating results. In addition, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because they (1) allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) are used by OraSure’s institutional investors and the analysis community to help them analyze the health of OraSure’s business. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures to establish budgets and to manage the Company’s business. A reconciliation of the GAAP financial results to non-GAAP financial results is included in the schedules below and a description of the adjustments made to the GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the schedules.

The Company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Non-GAAP financial results are reported in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further, non-GAAP financial measures, even if similarly titled, may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, and therefore should not be compared.
