Oxford Nanopore Technologies shares have jumped by over 7% already today after the DNA sequencing specialist reported strong full-year trading that exceeded its revenue guidance.

The FTSE 250 company expects to report 2025 revenues of around £223-224 million, up roughly 22% year-on-year.

The update follows a key leadership announcement from last month, when Oxford Nanopore confirmed that Francis Van Parys will take over as chief executive in March 2026, succeeding founder Gordon Sanghera.
