Cyanotech Corporation (CYAN) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

This is about selling more of the core products-BioAstin® and Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica®-to the customers you already have. Given the $24,215,000 in net sales for fiscal year 2025, a small increase in market share here has a big impact.

You're looking at maximizing revenue from your existing customer base and established distribution channels. For Cyanotech Corporation, this means pushing more of the premium, Kona-farmed ingredients you already produce. The focus here is on frequency and volume from current buyers.

Here's a quick look at the revenue base you are trying to penetrate deeper:

The sales mix in fiscal year 2025 showed a clear preference for the Astaxanthin product, which represented 65% of total net sales. To drive penetration, you need to look at where the volume is actually moving. We saw bulk spirulina and bulk astaxanthin sales grow by 53% and 74%, respectively, in fiscal year 2025, which was offset by a decline in packaged sales of 5%. That shift suggests your bulk ingredient customers are buying more, but your consumer-facing packaged sales need a direct push.

Here are the specific actions for market penetration:

• Increase e-commerce ad spend to drive sales of BioAstin® (65% of FY2025 net sales).
• Offer loyalty discounts to existing customers to boost repeat purchases of Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica®.
• Expand shelf space and promotional activity with the largest distributors who accounted for 31% of FY2025 net sales.
• Run targeted campaigns emphasizing the Kona, Hawaii, origin to differentiate from lower-cost competitors.
• Optimize pricing to be more competitive against synthetic astaxanthin, increasing volume.

Focusing on your largest channels is defintely key. For fiscal year 2025, two customers individually accounted for 31% and 10% of total net sales. That means a significant portion of your $24,215,000 revenue is concentrated. Securing more shelf space and better promotional placement with that 31% customer is a high-leverage move.

Also, consider the product format. The growth in bulk sales (53% for spirulina, 74% for astaxanthin) shows ingredient buyers are increasing orders. For the packaged side, which saw a 5% decline, direct-to-consumer efforts like loyalty discounts or targeted digital campaigns are necessary to reverse that trend and capture more of the existing consumer base.

Cyanotech Corporation (CYAN) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

The goal here is taking your existing, proven products-your astaxanthin and spirulina-and finding new places to sell them. North America is a leading market, but the growth is elsewhere, so we need to look at new geographies or new bulk applications.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, Cyanotech Corporation (CYAN) reported net sales of $24,215,000, which was a 5.0% increase over the prior fiscal year. This growth was heavily influenced by a strategic shift in product mix toward bulk ingredients, which is a core component of the Market Development strategy. You need to know where the money is coming from to fuel this expansion.

The internal numbers show the success of pushing bulk ingredients, which aligns with developing new, high-volume applications outside traditional packaged retail. Bulk spirulina sales grew 53% and bulk astaxanthin sales grew 74% during the fiscal year 2025, showing this market development lever is being pulled hard.

• Target the Asia Pacific region, which is the fastest-growing market for algae products. The broader Chlorella & Marine Microalgae market is projected to grow from $13.52 billion in 2024 to $26.57 billion by 2033, with the Asia Pacific region noted as an emerging key market.
• Expand bulk ingredient sales of BioAstin® into the high-growth aquaculture and animal feed segment. The internal growth figures for bulk sales in fiscal year 2025-bulk spirulina up 53% and bulk astaxanthin up 74%-demonstrate success in this area.
• Establish new distribution partnerships in Europe, leveraging the 2007 BioAstin® approval. BioAstin® was approved for sale in Europe in 2007.
• Focus on Latin American markets with lower-cost, high-volume spirulina powder formats. Specific revenue data for Latin America is not broken out in the latest filings, but the focus on bulk sales is the mechanism to enter these markets.
• Develop a dedicated sales team for the functional food and beverage manufacturers in new territories. The hiring of a head of sales in late 2024 signals a strategic shift toward retail and likely bulk/B2B expansion. In October 2025, Cyanotech expanded production targeting functional foods.

You're pushing the right buttons by focusing on bulk, which has shown significant internal traction. The Q4 fiscal year 2025 net sales reached $6,300,000, a 5.5% jump year-over-year, showing momentum heading into the next fiscal period.

Cyanotech Corporation (CYAN) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

You keep the existing customer base but give them new things to buy. Cyanotech Corporation is already doing this with new formats, like the Hawaiian Spirulina® gummies launched in May 2024 to complement the Astaxanthin gummy product. This is defintely a lower-risk path than full diversification.

This strategy focuses on maximizing the value from your established consumer base who already trust the BioAstin® Hawaiian Astaxanthin® and Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica® brands. For context on the business you are building upon, here are the top-line numbers from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025:

The focus here is on product extension and enhancement, which is generally less capital-intensive than entering entirely new markets. You want to give your current customers more reasons to buy from you, perhaps addressing adjacent health needs or offering more convenient delivery systems.

Here are specific product development avenues Cyanotech Corporation should be prioritizing to keep that existing customer base engaged:

• Introduce new condition-specific formulas combining astaxanthin with other proven ingredients.
• Develop a high-protein, algae-based food ingredient leveraging the spirulina production expertise.
• Launch a liquid or spray format of BioAstin® for enhanced bioavailability and new consumer segments.
• Increase R&D investment (which was only $0.4 million in FY2025) to explore new microalgae strains.
• Create a line of pet supplements using existing astaxanthin and spirulina as core ingredients.

That R&D spend of $0.4 million in fiscal 2025 is a key data point; it was actually lower than the $0.7 million spent in fiscal 2024. To seriously explore those new strains or advanced delivery systems like a liquid format, you'll need to allocate more capital there. Honestly, if you want to see a real pipeline of new offerings, you need to see that R&D number climb significantly from the $0.4 million mark.

Expanding the gummy line, which started with the Hawaiian Spirulina® gummies in May 2024, is a direct win for existing customers who prefer that format over traditional capsules. Also, think about the bulk spirulina expertise; turning that into a value-added, high-protein food ingredient for other manufacturers could be a strong adjacent play, keeping the focus on existing core ingredients.

Cyanotech Corporation (CYAN) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

This is the riskiest quadrant: new products for new markets. It means moving beyond the core nutraceuticals, but it also offers the biggest potential upside by leveraging the company's core competency in microalgae cultivation.

You're looking at moving Cyanotech Corporation beyond its established BioAstin Hawaiian Astaxanthin® and Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica® lines, which together accounted for approximately $\mathbf{97\%}$ of net sales in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. To be fair, the company has already dipped a toe in the water; total contract services and R&D services revenue represented approximately $\mathbf{4\%}$ of net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, with associated cost of sales at $\mathbf{\$634,000}$. Still, true diversification means a much bigger leap, perhaps leveraging the $\mathbf{83}$ employees on staff in March 2025 for entirely new revenue streams.

Here's the quick math on where the $\mathbf{\$24,215,000}$ in net sales came from in fiscal year 2025:

The operating loss for fiscal year 2025 was $\mathbf{\$2,508,000}$, and the net loss was $\mathbf{\$3,203,000}$, so any new venture needs to show a clear path to profitability without draining too much cash, especially since the company is focused on being conservative with its cash position moving forward.

The potential diversification moves, which require new markets and new product development, could look like this:

• Develop and commercialize a novel microalgae-based biofuel or bioplastic product line.
• Enter the cosmetic and personal care market with a new, high-value phycocyanin extract.
• Acquire a small company in the plant-based protein sector to utilize algae biomass in new food products.
• Offer contract manufacturing and extraction services for non-nutraceutical microalgae strains.
• Invest in a closed photobioreactor system to produce high-purity, pharmaceutical-grade compounds.

The existing contract services revenue of $\mathbf{\$968,600}$ in net sales for FY2025 shows a small, existing revenue stream outside the main branded products, which is a starting point for expanding service offerings, perhaps into the contract manufacturing space for non-nutraceutical strains.
