T2 Biosystems earnings aheadT2 Biosystems, the highly popular penny stock, will be in focus as it publishes its results after the market closes. Analysts believe that its loss-making streak continued in Q3 as challenges in the business remain.
Precisely, analysts expect that the company’s revenue dropped by another 29% YoY in Q3 to $2.6 million. The consensus earnings per share (EPS) estimate is that it will be -$0.04. T2 Biosystems has a good track record of beating the analysts’ estimate.

For starters, T2 Biosystems is the only company with an FDA-cleared product for detecting sepsis-causing pathogens directly from blood in less than five hours. The company’s strategy is to accelerate sales in the US and other countries, especially in Europe.
Therefore, these results will provide more information about whether the company’s strategy is working. Also, the company will provide more information about the upcoming launch of T2Resistance panel in 2024.
There is a big red flag though. As I have noted before. Public disclosures show that the company’s biggest shareholder has been dumping stock recently.
