REDWOOD CITY, Calif., July 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Seer, Inc. (Nasdaq: SEER) (“Seer” or the “Company”) today issued a letter to stockholders reminding them to vote their shares ahead of the Company’s upcoming 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), scheduled to be held on July 28, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time. Stockholders as of May 29, 2026 are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The Board recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” ONLY the election of Seer’s seven highly qualified nominees on the BLUE proxy card: Omid Farokhzad, M.D.; Meeta Gulyani; Robert Langer, Sc.D.; Terrance McGuire; Dipchand (Deep) Nishar; Isaac Ro; and Nicolas Roelofs, Ph.D.

The Board strongly urges stockholders to vote TODAY to ensure their vote is timely submitted.

The full text of the letter follows:

Dear Fellow Seer Stockholders,

Seer’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is scheduled to be held on July 28, 2026. You have an important decision to make, and time is running short. Seer’s Board strongly urges you to vote “FOR” ONLY Seer’s highly qualified director nominees on the BLUE proxy card TODAY to protect the value of your investment in Seer.

Seer is executing a clear long-term growth strategy, guided by our commitments to operational discipline, product innovation and shareholder value creation. We are pioneering a new market in deep, unbiased proteomics, growing scientific validation of our technology, advancing population-scale studies, maintaining prudent capital allocation, and building toward durable commercial adoption. Through this work, Seer has established itself as the leader in the category that we created. As our commercial opportunity continues to accelerate, we are well-positioned to realize the full potential of our platform.

Seer’s Board is highly engaged, independent and purpose-built to guide a category-creating life sciences tools company. Our seven director nominees – Omid Farokhzad, M.D.; Meeta Gulyani; Robert Langer, Sc.D.; Terrance McGuire; Dipchand (Deep) Nishar; Isaac Ro; and Nicolas Roelofs, Ph.D. – are seasoned industry experts well-qualified to oversee Seer’s continued strategic execution at this critical time. The Board collectively owns 17% of Seer’s outstanding shares1 and has a proven track record of advancing our stockholders’ best interests.

Bradley Radoff and Michael Torok are seeking to disrupt Seer’s strong momentum through a self-interested campaign focused on forcing an early sale of Seer. To advance this short-term agenda, Radoff and Torok are asking you to support director nominees who lack the qualifications, expertise and independence necessary to add value to our Board. The election of these nominees would mean replacing deeply qualified, highly committed directors – Dr. Farokhzad, Mr. McGuire and Mr. Nishar – with candidates who bring no proteomics experience, no life sciences tools experience and no platform operating experience. That is a risk you should not take.

Do not let Radoff and Torok take control of Seer’s future. Our Board is committed to maximizing long-term value for all stockholders. Radoff and Torok are focused on depriving stockholders of the opportunity to realize the full value of the platform that you have funded.

The choice is clear: vote “FOR” ONLY Seer’s director nominees on the BLUE proxy card TODAY.

Thank you for your continued support of Seer.

Sincerely,
The Seer Board of Directors
