​

ROCKVILLE, MD, November 12, 2025 — MaxCyte, Inc., (NASDAQ: MXCT), a leading, cell-engineering focused company providing enabling platform technologies to advance the discovery, development and commercialization of next-generation cell therapeutics, today announced its third quarter ended September 30, 2025 financial results and reiterated its 2025 guidance.

​

Third Quarter and Recent Highlights

| · | Core business revenue of $6.4 million in the third quarter of 2025.

| · | Strategic Platform License SPL Program-related revenue was $0.4 million for the third quarter of 2025.

| · | Total revenue of $6.8 million in the third quarter of 2025.

​

“We remain on track to achieve our full year 2025 revenue guidance,” said Maher Masoud, President and CEO of MaxCyte. “In the third quarter, we announced an operational restructuring to significantly reduce costs and accelerate our path towards profitability, while strengthening our ability to grow over the long-term. Though the external cell and gene therapy operating environment has rationalized over the last few years, we firmly believe that our value proposition for customers remains strong, as evidenced by recently signing our fourth SPL this year, Moonlight Bio. We remain committed to continued investments in SeQure Dx, product enhancement initiatives, and expanding the breadth of our cell engineering offerings, but will do so with commercial discipline to produce long-term sustainable growth for MaxCyte.”

2025 Guidance

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

​

This press release contains EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest income and expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization. This press release also contains Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and one-time restructuring charges. MaxCyte believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to management and investors relating to its results of operations. The company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, and for budgeting and planning purposes. The company believes that the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the company’s financial measures with other companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and that it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.

​

This press release also contains Non-GAAP Gross Margin, which we define as Gross Margin when excluding SPL program related revenue and reserves for excess and obsolete inventory. The Company believes that the use of Non-GAAP Gross Margin provides an additional tool to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance, as Non-GAAP Gross Margin excludes non-core

​

revenues and inventory reserves, which can vary significantly between periods and thus affect comparability.

​

Management does not consider these Non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant revenues and expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents these Non-GAAP financial measures along with GAAP results. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Reconciliation tables of net loss, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and Gross Margin, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to Non-GAAP Gross Margin, are included at the end of this release. MaxCyte urges investors to review the reconciliation and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the company’s business
