FLORHAM PARK, N.J., May 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Celularity Inc. (Nasdaq: CELU) (“Celularity” or the “Company”), a regenerative and cellular medicine company, today announced operating and financial results for the year ended December 31, 2024.

“We built momentum through 2024 and ended the year with a strong finish, as reflected in higher net revenues from the sale of our commercial-stage advanced biomaterial products,” said Dr. Robert Hariri, M.D., Ph.D., CEO and Chairman. “Sales growth was notably strong for our Biovance® product line, which we believe will continue to contribute to an improving revenue outlook for the next several quarters. We were also extremely pleased to receive recommendation letters from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Tissue Reference Group regarding important additions to our portfolio of human placental-derived advanced biomaterial products, which serves as a testament to our commitment to innovate in the wound care sector along with our development of next-generation 510(k) products. At the same time, we continued to act opportunistically and explore opportunities in the rapidly evolving landscape of cellular and regenerative medicine. We believe Celularity will gain additional momentum in 2025 as we leverage our unique business model and world-class technical infrastructure and human capital.”

Highlights of Full Year 2024 Operating and Financial Results

Net Revenues

Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $54.2 million, an increase of $31.4 million, or 138.1%, compared to the prior year period. This growth was primarily due to a $22.2 million increase in product sales in wound care applications, which increased 168.7% over the prior year.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, were $92.6 million, a decrease of $122.5 million, or 57.0%, compared to 2023. The decrease in operating expenses is attributable to the absence of goodwill and in-process research and development, or IPR&D, impairments in 2024. Loss from operations for the year ending December 31, 2024, was $38.4 million, a decrease of $153.9 million, or 80.1%, compared to the previous year, driven by higher revenue and lower operating expenses which improved our gross margin.
