The latest announcement is out from Novacyt ( (FR:ALNOV) ).

Novacyt reported audited 2025 results showing group statutory revenue of £20.0m, slightly above market expectations, with underlying revenue up about 4% despite the Taiwan lab divestment and a reduced RUO contribution. Clinical sales climbed to £13.8m on strong NIPT demand, instrumentation revenue jumped more than 25% to £2.5m driven by the LightBench Discover launch, while group EBITDA losses narrowed to £7.8m and post-period cash fell to £11.0m after investment and an earnings-accretive Australian acquisition.

Operationally, the company secured IVDR accreditation for a key Yourgene assay, launched the LightBench Discover platform for long-read sequencing labs and outlined new strategic KPIs, while winning an NHS NIPT contract and acquiring Southern Cross Diagnostics to deepen exposure to the fast-growing Australian and wider APAC diagnostics markets. Management highlighted that the combination of modest top-line growth ahead of expectations, improved profitability metrics and geographic expansion underpins its push toward EBITDA break-even and strengthens its competitive positioning in reproductive health and genomic instrumentation.
