Sells ExPERT instruments, Processing Assemblies, consumables, licenses, and assay services for cell therapy, bioprocessing, and research customers. Revenue comes through product sales, research and clinical licenses, and Strategic Platform License milestones within one cell-engineering technology segment.
Built on proprietary Flow Electroporation, the ExPERT platform spans DTx, ATx, STx, GTx, and VLx instruments, plus Processing Assemblies, electroporation buffers, software protocols, and accessories for cell-therapy, bioprocessing, drug-discovery, and research workflows.
Revenue comes from product sales, research and clinical license fees, Strategic Platform License program milestones, and SeQure gene-editing assay services. The business reports one segment, cell engineering technology, and works with biopharmaceutical customers that need scalable non-viral delivery.
Execution depends on converting platform use into recurring consumables, licenses, and milestone-linked programs. Customer development timelines, regulatory-reference support, and competition from larger life-science tool providers shape adoption.
