ROMEOVILLE, Ill., March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solésence, Inc. (Nasdaq: SLSN), a leader in scientifically-driven health care solutions across beauty and life science categories, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.
“In 2025, we achieved record revenue of $62.1 million, effectively doubling our line of consumer products in just two years. This affirmed both the value we bring to the industry, and our ability to establish ourselves as a leading innovator and manufacturer of SPF-infused beauty products,” said Kevin Cureton, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“In November, we launched Transform & Transcend. This is a broad-based strategic initiative that is aligning our operational execution with the changes in our organization brought on by our rapid commercial growth, and subsequently enables our company to capitalize on the market position we have established and the intellectual property investments we have made. Transform & Transcend is built on four core pillars: operational excellence through lean management principles, technology-driven expansion of our addressable market, increasing our share of the value chain through service model innovation, and collaborative globalization through entering new geographies in cooperation with our brand partners. Through the methodical execution of this initiative, our organization will be positioned to deliver sustainable, profitable growth above the industry averages and long-term value for our shareholders."
Laura Riffner, Chief Financial Officer, noted, “We exited 2025 with strong momentum due in part to organizational changes and the start of the Transform and Transcend initiative. Looking ahead to 2026, we are confident in our ability to deliver against our full-year objectives.”
