About Vericel

Vericel helps people heal from severe knee and burn injuries. The company uses a patient's own cells to repair damaged tissue. These advanced therapies aim to restore health and movement.

What Does Vericel Make?

  • Knee Cartilage Repair: MACI uses a patient's own cells to fix knee defects; it uses tissue engineering to grow new cartilage.
  • Arthroscopic Tools: MACI Arthro lets surgeons perform repairs through small incisions using specialized instruments.
  • Skin Replacement: Epicel provides permanent skin for patients with life-threatening burns covering 30% or more of their body.
  • Burn Treatment: NexoBrid removes eschar, which is damaged tissue, from severe thermal burns in adults and children.

Building for the Future

  • Launched MACI Arthro in the third quarter of 2024 following approval from the Food and Drug Administration.
  • Began the MASCOT clinical trial in late 2025 to study using cell therapy for ankle cartilage repair.
  • Leased a 126,000 square foot facility in Burlington to increase production capacity for its main products.
  • Secured an exclusive license for NexoBrid from MediWound Ltd to treat burn patients in North America.
  • Expanded the MACI sales team by approximately 30% in late 2025 to reach more surgeons.

Specialized Care for Severe Injuries

Vericel is a leader in tissue engineering with products that use a patient's own biology to heal. The company maintains its own manufacturing facilities to ensure quality and meet growing demand for its therapies.

Financial Performance

  • Revenue grew to $92.9 million in Q4 2025, up 23% from Q4 2024.
  • Gross profit reached $73.1 million in Q4 2025, a 25% year-over-year increase.
  • Net income was $23.2 million in Q4 2025, up 17% from the prior year.
  • Operating cash flow fell to $15 million in Q4 2025, down 32% from Q4 2024.

Bottom Line

Vericel has evolved from a developmental biotech into a profitable commercial leader in regenerative medicine. It continues to grow by developing less invasive surgical techniques and expanding into new medical markets.
