On April 27, 2026, the following email was distributed to employees of Seer, Inc.

 

Hi Seer Team,

 

I’m writing to provide an update on my note regarding the unsolicited proposal received from the Radoff-JEC Group. You might have seen that this proposal was further revised on April 24.

 

After careful review and consideration, Seer’s Board of Directors, in consultation with its independent financial and legal advisors, has unanimously determined to reject the Radoff-JEC Group’s revised proposal. The Board concluded that the revised proposal is not in the best interests of the Company or its stockholders. You can read more about the Board’s decision in our press release here [LINK].

 

The Board’s decision reflects our enduring confidence in Seer’s strategy and the compelling opportunities ahead as we continue to advance our platform. Our Proteograph® Product Suite represents a leading platform for scalable, deep, unbiased proteomics, with the ability to unlock significant long-term value. We are encouraged by ongoing growth in our installed base, securing additional population-scale cohort and biobank studies, and strong external validation, including more than 80 peer-reviewed publications that demonstrate the impact of our technology and its growing relevance across the field of proteomics. Seer’s position in this space is also supported by 240 issued patents and patent applications worldwide, including 82 issued patents.

 

Seer’s achievements are a testament to your talent and hard work. The Board and management team believe that we are well positioned to strengthen our leadership as the preferred unbiased proteomic platform for AI-driven biology and to capitalize on the significant opportunities ahead.

 

What’s important for you to know is that it remains business as usual at Seer – please continue to focus on the important work at hand and delivering for our customers. As a reminder, please direct any media inquiries to Patrick Schmidt at pr@seer.bio, and any investor or other third-party inquiries to investor@seer.bio.

 

Thank you for your dedication to Seer – your efforts are critical to our continued progress.

 

Sincerely,

Omid
