    “While we have faced significant headwinds in the quarter, we continue to firmly believe in the long-term opportunity for our differentiated proteomics technology.

    Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
    Revenue was $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an 11% increase from $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to increased sales of consumable kits related to the Proteograph Product Suite. Product-related revenue for the second quarter of 2023 was $3.0 million, including $1.4 million of related party revenue, and consisted of sales of SP100 instruments, consumable kits and platform evaluations. Service revenue was $467 thousand and grant and other revenue was $538 thousand. 

    Gross profit, inclusive of grant and other revenue, was $2.3 million and gross margin was 57% for the second quarter of 2023.

    Operating expenses were $30.2 million for the second quarter of 2023, including $9.8 million of stock-based compensation, an increase of 21%, as compared to $25.0 million, including $8.4 million of stock-based compensation, for the corresponding prior year period. The increase in expenses was driven by increased employee compensation and other related expenses, including stock-based compensation, product development efforts related to the Proteograph Product Suite, and expenses associated with build-out of expansion facilities.

    Net loss was $23.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, as compared to $22.8 million for the corresponding prior year period.

    Cash, cash equivalents and investments were $396 million as of June 30, 2023.

    2023 Guidance
    Seer now expects full year 2023 revenue to be in the range of $16 million to $18 million, representing growth of 10% at the mid-point of the range over full year 2022. This compares to the prior range of $23 million to $25 million.
