Shares of Absci fell after the company widened its loss and logged lower revenue in the fourth quarter.

The stock declined 12%, to $2.64, in premarket trading Wednesday. Through Tuesday's close, shares are up 3.8% over the past year.

The biopharmaceutical company late Tuesday posted a widened loss of $29.6 million for its three months ended Dec. 31, compared with a loss of $29 million a year earlier. The quarterly loss came in at 20 cents a share, compared with analyst expectations for a loss of 18 cents a share, according to FactSet.

Revenue slipped 2.3% to $650,000, missing the $1.4 million that Wall Street modeled.

Founder and CEO Sean McClain said Absci made progress advancing its in-development therapies over the past year, noting that the company is implementing artificial intelligence to design therapeutics faster and cheaper than the broader industry.
