On Wednesday, Charles River Laboratories International Inc&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRL#NYSE">CRL</a>) reported fourth-quarter 2024 revenue of $1 billion, a decrease of 1.1% year over year, beating the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $983.63 million</a>.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, the operating margin decreased to (16.7)% from 13.1% a year ago, including a non-cash goodwill impairment of&nbsp;$215.0 million&nbsp;in the fourth quarter of 2024 related to the Biologics Solutions reporting unit, which includes the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/b43808708/charles-river-laboratories-announces-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2024-results-and-provides-2025-g" rel="noreferrer noopener">Biologics Testing and CDMO businesses</a>.
Adjusted operating margin increased to 19.9% from 19.1%, due primarily to higher revenue and operating income in the Manufacturing segment and lower unallocated corporate costs.
The company reported adjusted EPS of $2.66, down from $2.46 a year ago, surpassing the consensus estimate of $2.53.
James C. Foster, Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Throughout 2024, we have launched initiatives to generate more revenue, aggressively reduce costs, and further strengthen our business. As we move into 2025, we see many of our global biopharmaceutical clients continuing to move forward with their restructuring and pipeline reprioritization activities, which are expected to constrain early-stage spending by many of these clients again in 2025.&#8221;
&#8220;We believe these trends are stabilizing, and therefore, our view of the global biopharmaceutical demand environment remains unchanged. In addition, small and mid-sized biotechnology clients continued to benefit from a more favorable funding environment in 2024, and we expect biotechnology demand trends will be stable to slightly improved this year."
Revenue for the Discovery and Safety Assessment segment was $603.3 million, down 3.6%. Organic revenue decreased by 3.5%, driven primarily by lower sales volume, as well as slightly lower pricing.
Research Models and Services&nbsp;sales increased 4.3% to $204.3 million.
The Noveprim acquisition in&nbsp;November 2023 contributed 4.8% to fourth-quarter RMS reported revenue, and the impact of foreign currency translation reduced revenue by 0.1%. Organic revenue decreased by 0.4%, due primarily to lower revenue for research models services and the Cell Solutions business, as well as lower sales for non-human primates in&nbsp;China.
Guidance:&nbsp;Charles River Laboratories expects 2025 revenue to decline between 7% and 4.5% on a reported basis and 5.5% and 3.5% organically.
Charles River sees the fiscal year 2025 adjusted EPS of $9.10-$9.60 versus a consensus of $9.60.
William Blair analyst Max Smock writes that the initial release reinforced the view that Charles River remains the premier preclinical CRO, and the analyst is confident in its best-in-class offerings.
&#8220;There is too much working against the company in the near term to make the stock interesting,&#8221; analyst writes. William Blair <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRL/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">reiterates the Market Perform rating</a>.
Price Action: At last check on Wednesday, CRL stock closed up 6.87% to $165.01.

This collaboration highlights Conduit's focus on generating high-quality preclinical data to optimize the development pathway for its clinical program in auto-immune and position itself for success in its upcoming Phase II clinical trials.
Conduit will leverage Charles River's expertise in immunology and preclinical research to refine study parameters and generate robust data to evaluate the efficacy of its lead compound. By conducting this comprehensive study, Conduit aims to enhance the predictability of clinical outcomes, increase the efficiency of its planned Phase II trials, and ultimately improve the likelihood of success for AZD1656 as a potential treatment for autoimmune disorders.
This study is a critical step in Conduit's development strategy, as it is expected to provide essential data to inform and de-risk future clinical trials. The primary aim is to better understand the impact of drug on disease progression in a lupus model, assessed by typical disease progression readouts. Furthermore, the study will gather data on the effect of the drug on inflammatory markers and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels to understand how the drug impacts Treg immunoregulation.
By generating this data early in the development process, Conduit aims to optimize its Phase II trials, by reducing development timelines and maximizing the therapeutic potential of AZD1656. This will strengthen the scientific foundation for Conduit's primary asset but also enhance the value for potential out-licensing opportunities.
