The earnings call presented a mixed picture with notable growth in contract extraction revenue and improved inventory and capital metrics. However, significant declines in net sales, gross profit margin, and an increased net loss, largely due to inventory challenges, highlight ongoing challenges.
Company Guidance
In the earnings call for Cyanotech's Q2 2025, management highlighted several key metrics and provided guidance on future performance. Despite a 39% increase in bulk inventory sales and a 156% rise in contract extraction revenue, overall sales for the quarter dropped by 8% due to a 21% decline in packaged goods sales caused by stock shortages. For the first half of the year, sales were up by 2%. Total net sales for the quarter were $5.8 million, down from $6.4 million in Q2 2024, with a gross profit margin declining from 32.8% to 25.3%, driven by a higher sales mix of lower-margin bulk products. Operating loss increased to $975,000 from $632,000 in the previous year, and net loss was $1.15 million or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to $0.8 million or $0.13 per share in Q2 2024. The company reported cash reserves of $780,000 and an improved working capital of $550,000, attributed to higher inventories and a short-term debt reclassification. Management is focused on addressing inventory challenges to improve the sales mix and maintain strong sales in their algae-based products.
Increase in Work-in-progress Inventory
Mid-quarter financing allowed Cyanotech to increase work in progress inventory by $1.9 million, despite a decrease in finished goods inventory.
Significant Growth in Contract Extraction Revenue

Increase in Cash and Working Capital
Cash increased to $780,000 and working capital increased to $550,000, up from $720,000 and $200,000 respectively as of June 30, 2024.
