BOSTON, United States and ROLLE, Switzerland, March 4, 2025 – SOPHiA GENETICS (Nasdaq: SOPH), a cloud-native software company and leader in data-driven medicine, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
“We continued driving widespread adoption of SOPHiA DDM™in 2024, achieving a record number of analyses, major new customers wins, and healthy volume growth during the year, despite BioPharma headwinds which impacted overall performance and resulted in softer revenue growth than we would have liked,” said Jurgi Camblong, PhD., Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder. “We also refueled the Company’s growth engine in 2024 by launching an exciting suite of new products and signing a record number of new customers, all while making meaningful improvements to both operating expenses and gross margin.”
Camblong added, “Looking forward to 2025, we are well positioned to reaccelerate growth. Catalysts for the year include the new Liquid Biopsy application MSK-ACCESS® powered with SOPHiA DDM™ which has already attracted 34 customers since its launch in Q2, exciting opportunities in the U.S., and an impressive base of 92 new customers to onboard and expand over the course of the year.”
Expanding usage of SOPHiA DDM™ worldwide
Landing new Clinical customers to fuel future platform growth
Accelerating platform adoption with new applications
Continued driving strong business momentum in the U.S. market
Growing sustainably by maintaining an obsession with operational excellence
Based on information as of today, SOPHiA GENETICS is providing the following guidance:
Other than with respect to revenue, the Company only provides guidance on a non-IFRS basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted gross margin (non-IFRS measure) to gross margin (the most comparable IFRS financial measure), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying amortization of capitalized research & development expenses that are necessary for such reconciliation. In addition, the Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted operating loss (non-IFRS measure) to operating loss (the most comparable IFRS financial measure), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying amortization of capitalized research & development expenses and intangible assets, share-based compensation expenses, and non-cash portion of pensions paid in excess of actual contributions, that are necessary for such reconciliation. The Company does not provide reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure) to net loss (the most comparable IFRS measure) due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including income tax, depreciation, amortization, fair value adjustments on warrant obligations, and foreign exchange gain (losses), net. Therefore, the Company is not able to forecast on an IFRS basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to calculate projected net loss at this time.
Earnings Call and Webcast Information
SOPHiA GENETICS will host a conference call and live webcast to discuss the fourth quarter and full year 2024 results, and financial guidance for the full year 2025 on Tuesday, March 4, 2025, at 8:00 a.m. (08:00) Eastern Time / 2:00 p.m. (14:00) Central European Time.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures
To provide investors with additional information regarding the company’s financial results, SOPHiA GENETICS has disclosed here and elsewhere in this earnings release the following non-IFRS measures:
These non-IFRS measures are key measures used by SOPHiA GENETICS management and board of directors to evaluate its operating performance and generate future operating plans. The exclusion of certain expenses facilitates operating performance comparability across reporting periods by removing the effect of non-cash expenses and certain variable charges. Accordingly, the company believes that these non-IFRS measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors.
These non-IFRS measures have limitations as financial measures, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of SOPHiA GENETICS’ results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are:
Because of these limitations, you should consider these non-IFRS measures alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net income and other IFRS results.
The tables below provide the reconciliation of the most comparable IFRS measures to the non-IFRS measures for the periods presented.
Presentation of Constant Currency Revenue and Excluding COVID-19-Related Revenue
SOPHiA GENETICS operates internationally, and its revenues are generated primarily in the U.S. dollar, the euro and Swiss franc and, to a lesser extent, British pound, Australian dollar, Brazilian real, Turkish lira and Canadian dollar depending on the company’s customers’ geographic locations. Changes in revenue include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We present the non-IFRS financial measure “constant currency revenue” (or similar terms such as constant currency revenue growth) to show changes in revenue without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations. Under IFRS, revenues recorded in local (non-U.S. dollar) currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the average monthly exchange rate for the month in which the transaction occurred. When the company uses the term “constant currency”, it means that it has translated local currency revenues for the current reporting period into U.S. dollars using the same average foreign currency exchange rates for the conversion of revenues into U.S. dollars that we used to translate local currency revenues for the comparable reporting period of the prior year. The company then calculates the difference between the IFRS revenue and the constant currency revenue to yield the “constant currency impact” for the current period.
The company’s management and board of directors use constant currency revenue growth to evaluate growth and generate future operating plans. The exclusion of the impact of exchange rate fluctuations provides comparability across reporting periods and reflects the effects of customer acquisition efforts and land-and-expand strategy. Accordingly, it believes that this non-IFRS measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating revenue growth in the same manner as the management and board of directors. However, this non-IFRS measure has limitations, particularly as the exchange rate effects that are eliminated could constitute a significant element of its revenue and could significantly impact performance and prospects. Because of these limitations, you should consider this non-IFRS measure alongside other financial performance measures, including revenue and revenue growth presented in accordance with IFRS and other IFRS results.
In addition to constant currency revenue, the company presents constant currency revenue excluding COVID-19-related revenue to further remove the effects of revenues that are derived from sales of COVID-19-related offerings, including a NGS assay for COVID-19 that leverages the SOPHiA DDMTM Platform and related products and solutions analytical capabilities and COVID-19 bundled access products. SOPHiA GENETICS do not believe that these revenues reflect its core business of commercializing its platform because the company’s COVID-19 solution was offered to address specific market demand by its customers for analytical capabilities to assist with their testing operations. The company does not anticipate additional development of its COVID-19-related solution as the pandemic transitions into a more endemic phase and as customer demand continues to decline. Further, COVID-19-related revenues did not constitute, and the company does not expect COVID-19-related revenues to constitute in the future, a significant part of its revenue. Accordingly, the company believes that this non-IFRS measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its revenue growth. However, this non-IFRS measure has limitations, including that COVID-19-related revenues contributed to the company’s cash position, and other companies may define COVID-19-related revenues differently. Because of these limitations, you should consider this non-IFRS measure alongside other financial performance measures, including revenue and revenue growth presented in accordance with IFRS and other IFRS results.
The table below provides the reconciliation of the most comparable IFRS growth measures to the non-IFRS growth measures for the current period.
