Message from the CEO

2025 was a breakthrough year for Bio-Works.

We delivered strong growth, as well as a clear improvement in both earnings and cash flow. The fourth quarter is our strongest to date and clearly shows that our business model is delivering as intended — and at an accelerating pace.

Revenue increased sharply both in the quarter and for the full year, driven by solid demand across all regions and several major deliveries. Order intake is at record levels, and the order book at year-end provides us with a stable foundation going into 2026. Encouragingly, the operating result in the fourth quarter is approaching break-even, which motivates us to work even harder to achieve sustainable and growing profitability in the foreseeable future.

During the year, we have continued to focus on commercialization, with clear progress in both affinity chromatography and oligonucleotide purification. The launch of new products and strengthened customer relationships has broadened our customer base and opened doors to new markets. The strategic partnership in South Korea is an important step in our long-term global expansion.

In parallel with our strong commercial development, we have also successfully scaled up our production. Investments in manufacturing have eliminated bottlenecks and increased capacity, while personnel and overhead costs have remained at a controlled level in step with the substantial sales increase. This is crucial for our continued growth journey toward profitability.

Our financial position has strengthened significantly during the year, with improved cash flow and good liquidity. This gives us room to continue investing selectively in growth and scaling.

I would like to extend my warm thanks to our customers and partners for your trust, to our shareholders for your long-term support, and to our employees for your commitment and professionalism. Together, we have taken Bio-Works into a new phase — with clear growth, increased capacity and stability, and sustainable profitability within reach.
