Maravai LifeSciences Holdings, Inc. (MRVI) stock plunged 5.24% in pre-market trading on Tuesday, as the company announced the postponement of its Q4 2024 earnings release and a delay in filing its annual report (Form 10-K) for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The life sciences company cited several reasons for the delay, including the need for additional time to assess a potential non-cash impairment charge related to goodwill from a previous acquisition, and an error in revenue recognition that resulted in $3.9 million being recorded in the wrong quarter (Q2 2024 instead of Q3 2024).
MRVI also noted that it requires more time to complete its assessment of the effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting, including the remediation of a material weakness in controls over revenue recognition identified by management.
