Schr dinger Reports Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Third Quarter Total Revenue of $54.3 Million, Software Revenue of $40.9 Million
Updates 2025 Financial Guidance
New York, November 5, 2025 - Schr dinger, Inc. (Nasdaq SDGR) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
Schr dinger delivered a solid third quarter with software revenue growth of 28%, reflecting the industry's increasing demand for our leading computational platform," said Ramy Farid, Ph.D., chief executive officer of Schr dinger. "While we are encouraged by the continued high level of customer engagement as the macroeconomic pressures that have affected the industry stabilize, we have lowered our software revenue growth guidance by two percent to 8% to 13%. This updated guidance reflects current expectations regarding the timing of pharma scale-up opportunities."
"In our therapeutics portfolio, we are continuing to make strong progress advancing our collaborations and have increased our expectations for drug discovery revenue this year. Beyond our planned clinical investments to complete the Phase 1 dose-escalation studies for SGR-1505 and SGR-3515, we do not intend to advance discovery programs into the clinic independently. This shift toward a discovery-focused therapeutics R D model has the potential to deliver significant long-term value through licensing, new ventures, and discovery collaborations," Dr. Farid continued. "These actions, coupled with expense-reduction measures we undertook earlier this year, are expected to result in savings of approximately $70 million and improve our operational efficiency and long-term profitability profile."
Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Total revenue for the third quarter increased 54% to $54.3 million, compared to $35.3 million in the third quarter of 2024.
Software revenue for the third quarter increased 28% to $40.9 million, compared to $31.9 million in the third quarter of 2024 reflecting growth in hosted and on-premise contracts.
Drug discovery revenue was $13.5 million for the third quarter, compared to $3.4 million in the third quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to the recognition of revenue from upfront payments associated with advancing ongoing collaborations.
Software gross margin for both the third quarter of 2025 and the third quarter of 2024 was 73%.
Operating expenses were $74.0 million for the third quarter, compared to $86.2 million for the third quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower R D expenditure and employee-related expenses.
Other income was $13.3 million for the third quarter, which included changes in fair value of equity investments and interest income, compared to other income of $30.2 million for the third quarter of 2024.
Net loss for the third quarter was $32.8 million, compared to $38.1 million in the third quarter of 2024.
Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities were $401.0 million at the end of the third quarter compared to $367.5 million at December 31, 2024.

2025 Financial Outlook
Today Schr dinger updated its 2025 full-year guidance for software revenue growth, drug discovery revenue, and software gross margin. The company's financial expectations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 are as follows
Software revenue growth is now expected to range from 8% to 13% compared to the prior expectation of 10% to 15%.
Drug discovery revenue is now expected to range from $49 million to $52 million compared to the prior expectation of $45 million to $50 million.
Software gross margin is now expected to range from 73% to 75% compared to the prior expectation of 74% to 75%.
Operating expenses in 2025 are expected to be lower than 2024.
Cash used for operating activities in 2025 is expected to be significantly lower than cash used for operating activities in 2024.
The company is continuing to progress the Phase 1 clinical study of SGR-3515, the company's Wee1 Myt1 co-inhibitor, in patients with advanced solid tumors. Initial clinical data are now expected in the first half of 2026 as the company works toward completing dose escalation.
In November, Schr dinger announced that new data on SGR-1505, the company's MALT-1 inhibitor, will be presented during a poster session at the American Society of Hematology 67th Annual Meeting taking place December 6-9, 2025. The data characterize the mutational profile and clinical response to SGR-1505 treatment in patients who have relapsed or become refractory to Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) treatment or who have been double-exposed to BTKi and B-cell lymphoma 2 inhibitors. These data demonstrate that SGR-1505 represents a promising therapeutic option for patients who become resistant to standard-of-care therapies. The company is completing the Phase 1 package and continues to explore strategic opportunities to advance the development of SGR-1505.
In October, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted SGR-1505 Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of Waldenstr m macroglobulinemia.
Additionally, Schr dinger scientists recently published research in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry highlighting the power of integrating physics-based modeling and machine learning to accelerate the discovery of SGR-1505.
In October, Schr dinger presented initial preclinical data for SGR-5573, the company's potent, selective, brain-penetrant inhibitor of osimertinib-resistant EGFR variants at the European Society of Medical Oncology Congress. The data demonstrated that SGR-5573 is potent against resistant EGFR variants, has strong wild-type selectivity, and has robust anti-tumor activity in preclinical brain metastases models.
Schr dinger recently selected SGR-6016, a brain-penetrant NLRP3 inhibitor development candidate. SGR-6016, the company's fifth development candidate since 2021, is structurally distinct from known NLRP3 inhibitors, with a favorable preclinical potency, selectivity, and preliminary safety profile.
In August, Schr dinger scientists published research in Nature Communications describing computational approaches to achieve kinome-wide selectivity in drug discovery campaigns, using the discovery of selective Wee1 kinase inhibitors as a case study, and to provide a general roadmap to accelerate drug discovery campaigns.
In October, Copernic Catalysts announced the creation of a new, more efficient, ammonia synthesis catalyst. This new chemistry reduces energy consumption used in ammonia production by up to 47%, representing substantial cost savings and environmental benefits for industrial producers. Copernic and Schr dinger are collaborating on this research, and Schr dinger holds an equity position in Copernic.
Also in October, scientists from Nimbus, a company co-founded by Schr dinger, and Takeda published results from the Phase 2b study of zasocitinib, an investigational TYK2 inhibitor, in patients with active psoriatic arthritis. In the trial, a statistically significant proportion of patients receiving zasocitinib achieved an American College of Rheumatology 20 response at week 12 versus placebo with no new safety signals observed. A Phase 3 study of zasocitinib in patients with psoriasis is ongoing.

Non-GAAP Information
Included in this press release is certain financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The company presents non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, which exclude gains and losses on equity investments, changes in fair value of equity investments, and income tax benefits and expenses. Adjusting net income to exclude the impact of these items results in a financial presentation for the company without the impact of our equity investments and tax benefits and expenses. Management believes non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share are useful measures for investors, taken in conjunction with the company's GAAP financial statements because they provide greater period-over-period comparability with respect to the company's operating performance, by excluding non-cash mark-to-market and other valuation adjustments for the company's equity investments, non-recurring cash distributions from the company's equity investments and the tax impact of these distributions that are not reflective of the ongoing operating performance of the business. However, the non-GAAP measures should be considered only in addition to, not
as a substitute for or as superior to, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Other companies in Schr dinger's industry may calculate non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share to GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP net income (loss) per share, respectively, please refer to the tables at the end of this press release.
