**【CEO Summary Section】**
- **Revenue Guidance Update**: Core business revenue for 2025 revised to flat to -10% ($29.5M-$32.5M), down from previous 8%-15% growth guidance. Reduction driven by $1.5M in PA revenue decline (inventory management at a large customer) and $2M in license revenue decline (customer program consolidation and manufacturing reorganization). Instrument revenue growth (+22% YoY) partially offset the decline.
- **Strategic Platform Licenses (SPLs)**: Signed 3 new SPLs in 2025 (Adicet Bio, Anocca AB, and 1 undisclosed), bringing total to 31. 14 SPL customers have active clinical programs, with 5 expected to enter pivotal studies in 2026-2028.
- **Long-Term Outlook**: Expect return to growth in 2026, driven by Asia Pacific expansion, new platform launches, and SPL pipeline diversification across blood cancer, solid tumors, and genetic diseases.

- **SPL Program Revenue**: $0.3M in Q2 (CASGEVY royalties), with $5M+ expected for 2025.
