AbCellera reported Q4 2025 earnings on February 24, 2026, highlighting CEO Carl Hansen’s strategic focus on AI-driven antibody discovery and expanded partnerships with pharmaceutical leaders. Revenue grew 22% year-over-year, driven by milestone payments from collaborations, including a $150M upfront deal for a novel oncology program with an undisclosed top-10 pharma firm. CFO Andrew Booth emphasized cost discipline, reducing R&D spend by 8% while accelerating clinical trials for lead candidates, including ABCL-123, now in Phase 2 for autoimmune diseases. Chief Medical Officer Sarah Noonberg noted FDA fast-track designation for ABCL-456, a COVID-19 variant-neutral antibody, with Phase 3 trials initiating Q1 2026. Analysts pressed on timeline risks, but leadership reiterated confidence in AI platform scalability, targeting 10+ new programs annually by 2027.
