Ginkgo integruje systém Endeavor do laboratoře Nebula
DNA Ginkgo Bioworks Holdings
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
Mit dem Endeavor® wird die rund um die Uhr stattfindende Forschung bei Ginkgo um die schnellste Erzeugung von zellulären Hochdurchsatzdaten erweitert 

, /PRNewswire/ -- Araceli Biosciences und Ginkgo Bioworks (NYSE: DNA) gaben heute die Integration des Endeavor®-High-Content-Imaging-Geräts von Araceli in „Nebula", das autonome Labor von Ginkgo in Boston, bekannt. Das Endeavor, das weltweit schnellste High-Content-Imaging-System, ergänzt die bestehenden Technologien von „Nebula" um zelluläre Bildgebung mit Echtzeitanalyse und stellt Forschern die umfangreichen, kuratierten Datensätze zur Verfügung, die für das Training und die Validierung von KI-Modellen zur Wirkstoffforschung erforderlich sind. 

Nebula basiert auf den „Reconfigurable Automation Carts" (RACs) von Ginkgo. Jedes RAC ist eine modulare Einheit, die Roboterarme, automatisierten Probentransport und eine einheitliche Steuerungssoftware vereint, sodass Geräte je nach Änderung der Arbeitsabläufe hinzugefügt oder neu angeordnet werden können. Täglich nutzen Dutzende von Wissenschaftlern die über 100 RACs auf Nebula für echte Forschungsarbeiten, reichen Protokolle ein und erhalten ihre Daten bereits am nächsten Tag. Nebula erledigt die Arbeit vieler Wissenschaftler autonom und parallel, läuft Tag und Nacht und benötigt dabei nur etwa ein Drittel des Platzes, den ein herkömmlicher Labortisch für dieselbe Arbeit benötigen würde. 

Das Endeavor-System, das eine 1536-Well-Platte in weniger als vier Minuten abtastet, ist in das RAC-basierte System von Nebula integriert und läuft kontinuierlich neben den ständig aktiven Experimenten. Mithilfe der ClaireRT™-Software von Araceli analysiert das Endeavor-System jede Vertiefung bereits während der Bildaufnahme. Wenn eine Vertiefung die festgelegten Kriterien nicht erfüllt, kann das System das Bedienpersonal oder Nebula benachrichtigen oder die Bildaufnahme unterbrechen, damit etwaige Probleme behoben werden können, bevor das Experiment fortgesetzt wird.  

„Die nächste Generation der KI in der Wirkstoffforschung erfordert biologische Daten in einer völlig anderen Größenordnung", erklärte Matt Beaudet, President und CEO von Araceli Biosciences. „Das Labor selbst befindet sich im Wandel. Es generiert nun zelluläre Daten, interpretiert das Gesehene und reagiert in Echtzeit. Ginkgo setzt dies mit Nebula um, und Araceli integriert hochauflösende Bildgebung und Echtzeitanalyse in großem Maßstab in diesen Prozess." 

„Ein autonomes Labor gewinnt jedes Mal an Wert, wenn man es um ein erstklassiges Gerät erweitert", sagte Jason Kelly, Mitbegründer und CEO von Ginkgo Bioworks. „Mit Ihrem eigenen autonomen Labor kann jeder Ihrer Wissenschaftler auf die branchenführende High-Content-Bildgebung von Endeavor zugreifen und diese mühelos mit all Ihren anderen Geräten verbinden. Genau das bietet Ihnen ein autonomes Labor: die besten Werkzeuge der Biologie, vereint in einem System mit einheitlicher Software, das Ihre Experimente rund um die Uhr durchführt."

Akcie Ginkgo se po dohodě s Eli Lilly zdvojnásobily
DNA Ginkgo Bioworks Holdings
FMP Stock News 92
Original source text
Eli Lilly (LLY +1.07%) is a top healthcare company, and it has a ton of money it can afford to invest in emerging opportunities. Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the biggest ones right now, as using AI to accelerate drug discovery could do wonders for its business.

The company has launched Lilly TuneLab, which uses AI and machine learning to potentially speed up drug discovery efforts. Last month, Lilly reached a deal with biotech stock Ginkgo Bioworks (DNA +19.35%), which programs cells. Ginkgo has billions of data points that Lilly can leverage, and these can be made available quickly with the help of AI.

The excitement around this development appears to have created a tremendous amount of bullishness around Ginkgo's stock, which has now doubled in value since that announcement came out on Sept. 15. Its market cap is around $1 billion. Is it too late to buy shares of Ginkgo, or could there still be more gains ahead for investors who invest in the business today?

Deals haven't translated into strong financials for Ginkgo in the pastGinkgo has secured deals with many types of companies in the past, but its financial results remain choppy, and profits remain elusive.

In its most recent quarter, which ended on June 30, Ginkgo's revenue totaled $20.2 million, a sharp decline from the $39.1 million it reported in the same period a year ago, as the company has been in the midst of restructuring efforts. And even with lower operating expenses in the most recent quarter, the company's operating loss of $58.5 million was slightly worse compared with the $58.2 million loss it reported a year ago.

While there is significant potential for Ginkgo in the healthcare industry, the problem is that the numbers just aren't there to show that the business is on the right track. And although the stock has been rallying of late, it's still down an incredible 97% in five years.

Ginkgo's stock remains highly riskyInvestor sentiment around Ginkgo has improved significantly since the company announced its deal with Eli Lilly. Prior to that, it was looking like 2026 would be another down year for the stock.

However, investors should tread carefully here because this is not exactly new territory for Ginkgo. It's been involved in many deals in the past, with seemingly plentiful growth opportunities ahead, only for the results to fail to live up to expectations. The same could happen for investors who invest in the stock today. While its ambitions are high, that doesn't mean there will be a payoff for investors who buy today.

Taking a wait-and-see approach is the safest option for investors today, because until Ginkgo can generate some much stronger results, it'll remain a highly risky investment to own.

Kala Bio a Virotek rozšiřují distribuci genomických testů
DNA Ginkgo Bioworks Holdings
FMP Stock News 78

Agreement would expand the companies' genetic testing collaboration beyond ophthalmology to a selected suite of genomic testing products through an additional U.S. reseller channel  | Source: KALA BIO, Inc.

ARLINGTON, Mass., Sept. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kala Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: KALA) ("Kala") and Virotek Inc. ("Virotek") today announced that they have signed a non-binding letter of intent (the "LOI") with a U.S. DNA testing platform under which the platform would resell Virotek's selected suite of genomic testing products. The mechanics of the commercial and economic terms are being finalized. Assuming negotiations are completed, the companies expect to name the reselling parties in the coming weeks.

The LOI follows the exclusive U.S. distribution and reseller agreement between Kala and Virotek announced on September 3, 2026. Under that agreement, Kala markets and distributes Virotek's genetic testing and screening program in the United States while Virotek operates the laboratory infrastructure, kit supply, specimen processing, and clinical reporting. Although the initial contract with Virotek is for ophthalmology, KALA facilitated the introduction to the potential reseller and will therefore benefit economically if the deal closes, through a profit-split or commission-based structure, since Virotek will shoulder most of the logistics to fulfill orders.

For Virotek, the proposed arrangement would expand distribution of selected genetic testing products through an additional U.S. channel. For Kala, it would represent the first reseller relationship facilitated under the Virotek collaboration beyond ophthalmology. Any expansion remains subject to definitive agreements and the applicable scope of the parties' existing agreements.

The companies believe the proposed arrangement may create an additional channel for appropriately ordered genetic testing across a range of clinical applications beyond ophthalmology. Virotek will continue to maintain responsibility for its laboratory processes, clinical reporting, quality standards, and applicable regulatory and compliance requirements.

The LOI is non-binding, except for certain limited provisions. The proposed arrangement remains subject, among other things, to finalizing the economic terms, negotiating and executing definitive agreements, and other customary conditions. There can be no assurance that definitive agreements will be reached on the contemplated terms, if at all, that the reselling parties will be named, or that the arrangement will generate revenue. Kala has not established, and this release does not contain, any revenue projection.

"This is the step that takes our genetic testing program beyond ophthalmology and into the wider market. We are still finalizing the economics, and there is no guarantee we complete them, but we believe this relationship puts Kala on a path to realizing revenue from the program. Just as important, it is a marker of what we are building: an AI- health-centred, biotech-oriented company that grows through its verticals and delivers long-term value to shareholders," said Avi Minkowitz, Chief Executive Officer of Kala.

"This proposed arrangement expands the reach of Virotek’s clinical genomics platform through an additional commercial channel while preserving the standards that define our offering. As we broaden our commercial relationships, our priority remains clinical quality, scientific rigor and the responsible delivery of Virotek’s testing services," said Dr. Saeid Babaei, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Virotek.

Original source text
Ginkgo Bioworks NYSE: DNA reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of $20 million, down 48% from the year-earlier period, as the company continued to shift its focus toward autonomous laboratory systems, contract research services and related software.

Chief Executive Officer Jason Kelly said the company’s priorities for 2026 remain investing in autonomous labs, expanding its Nebula autonomous laboratory in Boston, and pursuing new sales to biopharma companies, national laboratories and research universities.

Get Ginkgo Bioworks alerts:

The company also reaffirmed its full-year cash-burn guidance of $125 million to $150 million. Ginkgo ended the quarter with $302 million in cash and cash equivalents, along with $87 million of restricted cash designated for certain customers and operating activities, Kelly said.

Financial Results and Cash Burn Chief Financial Officer Steve Coen said Ginkgo’s former Biosecurity business, which was divested in a transaction completed April 3, is classified as discontinued operations. Financial commentary for the quarter relates exclusively to continuing operations, which the company now reports as one segment.

Revenue totaled $40 million for the first six months of 2026, a 49% decline from the prior-year period. Coen noted that the first half of 2025 included $7.5 million of non-cash revenue related to the mutual termination of the BiomEdit agreement. Excluding that amount, first-half revenue declined about 42% year over year.

Research and development expense was $30 million, down 4% from $31 million a year earlier. General and administrative expense was $12 million, down 26% from $16 million in the prior-year quarter. Net loss from continuing operations was $57 million, compared with a $53 million loss a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $36 million, compared with negative $25 million in the second quarter of 2025. Second-quarter cash burn was $45 million, compared with $38 million a year earlier. For the first half of 2026, cash burn was $93 million, down 3% from $96 million in the prior-year period. Coen said first-quarter cash burn included a $14 million payment to Google Cloud related to an amended 2025 commitment. The revised arrangement reduced future minimum commitments by more than $100 million and extended the commitment term to six years from three years, he said.

Adjusted EBITDA included $14 million in costs associated with excess leased space during the second quarter, up from $12 million a year earlier. Coen said those expenses consist of rent and related charges on unoccupied space, net of sublease income, and could potentially be reduced through additional subleasing.

Ginkgo raised $17 million through its at-the-market equity program during the quarter. The company excludes those proceeds from its cash-burn calculation.

Autonomous Lab Expansion Kelly said Ginkgo expanded Nebula, its Boston autonomous lab, to 105 racks after adding roughly 50 racks during the quarter. He said the expansion was installed and operating within approximately three weeks after the racks had been manufactured.

The system uses a track-and-robotic-arm configuration to move samples among laboratory devices. According to Kelly, Nebula operates continuously and on an average day can run about 30 unique protocols submitted by scientists, with more than 100 protocol copies across the system’s devices.

Kelly said Ginkgo is working to move a majority of its internal laboratory work to Nebula over time. The company expects the system to improve the economics of its service offerings while serving as a demonstration platform for prospective autonomous-lab customers.

He contrasted the company’s autonomous-lab approach with more conventional laboratory work cells, which can automate repeated tasks but generally lack flexibility for new experimental protocols. Kelly said Ginkgo is seeking to combine the continuous operation of automated systems with the flexibility of manual laboratory benches.

Government and University Projects Ginkgo said it is building an autonomous laboratory system for Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Kelly said the company had previously installed the first 13 racks at the Department of Energy laboratory and expects the project to expand to a 97-rack system.

The company also said it was selected to build autonomous labs for MIT, Caltech, the University of Maryland and Northwestern University. Kelly said the Caltech, Maryland and Northwestern projects are part of a National Science Foundation program, while MIT’s project is funded through a separate grant.

Coen said revenue from large automation projects is generally recognized when equipment is delivered and installation is completed. He said the national laboratory project has generated some preliminary-contract revenue, but revenue from the larger installation will be recognized upon delivery and completion of installation.

In addition to equipment revenue, Coen said autonomous-lab contracts can include support, maintenance, custom work and software licensing revenue that may continue after installation.

Datapoints Services and Drug Discovery Offering Ginkgo also highlighted its Datapoints contract research offerings, including a recently launched service called ADME-One. The service provides a panel of five assays used to assess absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion properties of small-molecule drug candidates.

Kelly said Ginkgo is offering the service for $199 per panel, compared with prices he cited of $2,000 to $5,000 from Western contract research organizations and $1,000 to $2,500 from Chinese providers. The offering includes partnerships with Inductive Bio for pharmacokinetic projections and Tangible Scientific for compound management, he said.

The company said it has conducted internal quality-control testing and comparisons with external vendors for the assays. Kelly also said Ginkgo plans to add plate-based chemistry, chemical purification and inert-atmosphere chemistry capabilities to its automated operations.

Coen said Datapoints revenue is recognized over time, similar to Ginkgo’s legacy services business. He said Datapoints projects are generally smaller than historical projects and typically run from three to nine months, though some can extend longer.
