Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Total revenue was $181.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $100.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $81.3 million, or 81.3%.
The increase in total revenue was driven primarily by an 85.9% growth in molecular profiling services revenue, which was $162.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $87.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in molecular profiling services revenue was primarily driven by an increase in total clinical case volume and ASP improvements across both therapy selection solutions.


Gross profit, calculated as total revenue less cost of services, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, was $113.7 million and $37.6 million, respectively, representing a gross margin of 62.7% and 37.5%, respectively.
Operating expenses were $131.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $104.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $27.1 million, or 25.9%. The increase was primarily driven by increased stock-based compensation expense and headcount-related costs.
Net loss was $71.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, which includes $37.1 million one-time expense associated with the conversion of redeemable convertible preferred stock, warrants and convertible notes from the initial public offering, as compared to $66.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Net loss per share attributable to common shareholders, basic and diluted which includes a one-time deemed dividend of $384.4 million and one-time adjustments of redeemable convertible stock to redemption value of $61.0 million, was $7.97 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $2.54 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $62.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, a 111.6% improvement. The improvement was driven by improved reimbursement from molecular profiling services, including one-time catch up payments of $35.6 million related to first quarter 2025 MI Cancer seek cases.
2025 Financial Outlook and Guidance
Caris Life Sciences expects full year 2025 revenue to be in the range of $675.0 million to $685.0 million, representing growth of 64% to 66% compared to full year 2024. Clinical therapy selection volume is expected to be in the growth range of 19% to 21% compared to full year 2024.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this press release are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our business, solutions, plans, objectives, goals, industry trends, financial outlook and guidance. In some cases forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “potential,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or similar expressions.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable based on information currently available to us, we cannot guarantee that the future results, discoveries, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. Risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated or implied by the forward-looking statements in this press release include, among other things: developments in the precision medicine industry; our future financial performance, results of operations or other operational results or metrics; development, validation and timing of future solutions; commercial market acceptance for our solutions and our ability to meet resulting demand; the rapidly evolving competitive environment in which we operate; third-party payer reimbursement and coverage decisions related to our solutions; our ability to protect and enhance our intellectual property; regulatory requirements, decisions or approvals (including the timing and conditions thereof) related to our solutions; reliance on third-party suppliers; our compliance with laws and regulations; the outcome of government investigations and litigation; risks related to our substantial indebtedness; and our ability to hire and retain key personnel as well as risks, uncertainties, and other factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 20, 2025 in connection with our initial public offering, as updated in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on or about August 12, 2025, and in our other filings we make with the SEC from time to time. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in events, circumstances or our beliefs after the date of this press release, except as required by law.
Non-GAAP Measures
We use Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, financial measures not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), to supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe the non-GAAP financial measures we use, are useful in evaluating our performance and liquidity. Our non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, however, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use these measures or may calculate these measures differently than as presented herein, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.


We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, adjusted to exclude interest income, interest expense, changes in fair value of financial instruments, other expense, net, the provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. We use Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, and to communicate with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and board of directors. Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business, as it removes the effect of certain non-cash expenses and certain variable charges.
We define free cash flow as net cash used in operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We believe free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity that provides an additional basis for assessing our ability to generate cash. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to the respective comparable GAAP financial measures, can be found below.
