T2 Biosystems reported a 41% increase in total revenue for the second quarter of 2020, driven by a significant rise in research and contribution revenue. The company also launched its T2SARS-CoV-2 Panel and strengthened its balance sheet through stock sales.
Total revenue increased by 41% to $2.6 million compared to the prior year period.
Product revenue decreased by 18% to $1.0 million due to lower instrument sales internationally.
Research and contribution revenue increased by 185% to $1.5 million, driven by increased U.S. government contract funding.
Net loss decreased to $10.7 million, or $0.09 per share, compared to $15.6 million, or $0.35 per share, in the prior year period.
