Twist Bioscience Corp

Twist Bioscience Corp

Twist Bioscience Corporation is a synthetic biology company that manufactures DNA using a proprietary silicon-based platform. Its products serve markets including genetic research, diagnostics, industrial biotechnology and therapeutic development, supplying synthetic DNA, oligos and related services to biotech and pharmaceutical customers. Investors should know Twist is positioned in an emerging, high-growth segment of life sciences where demand for custom DNA and sequencingโ€‘ready products can increase as genomics, cell and gene therapies, and diagnostics expand. The company has pursued partnerships and commercial contracts to broaden revenue channels, but still faces typical biotech execution risks: scaling manufacturing, achieving sustained profitability and managing R&D and capital needs. As a small-cap equity (market cap roughly $2.0bn), TWST can be more volatile than large-cap peers.
