The company reported total other income of $2.7 million for the third quarter, down from $3.2 million in 2023, largely due to decreased interest income.

Nautilus's cash flow from operating activities showed a net outflow of $44.8 million for the nine months, compared to $37.8 million in the previous year. However, net cash provided by investing activities was $29.1 million, a significant increase from a net outflow of $2.7 million in 2023, primarily due to proceeds from the maturity of securities.

Nautilus continues to focus on the development of its proteomics platform, with plans for commercialization expected to take several years.
