Biodesix Inc (NASDAQ: BDSX) is a diagnostic testing company focused on lung disease that develops and commercializes blood-based tests for lung nodule risk assessment and lung cancer treatment guidance. Revenue comes from two streams: Lung Diagnostic testing fees billed per test to payers and healthcare providers, and Development Services fees paid by biopharmaceutical companies for research partnerships. In FY2025 (fiscal year ended, per 10-K filed 2026-02-26), Lung Diagnostics generated $79.2 million in revenue, a 22% increase, from 62,600 tests delivered, a 15% increase.

Biodesix offers two tests assessing cancer risk in lung nodules and three tests providing treatment guidance after a lung cancer diagnosis. The company targets a U.S. addressable market it estimates at over 10 million testing opportunities annually across the lung cancer continuum of care. It operates as a smaller reporting company listed on the NASDAQ Global Market and requires additional capital to fund ongoing operations.
