Key Points:
– Longevity Health and 20/20 BioLabs to merge, forming a $99M company focused on diagnostics and healthy aging.
– 2025 revenue expected to double post-merger, driven by cross-sell opportunities and product synergies.
– Combined firm targets expanding into MedSpas, retail, and clinical settings, reflecting a hybrid approach to wellness and diagnostics.

Longevity Health Holdings (Nasdaq: XAGE) is doubling down on its ambition to lead the healthy aging and diagnostics market with the announcement of a strategic all-stock merger with 20/20 BioLabs, a provider of cutting-edge diagnostic tests for early cancer detection and chronic disease risk management. The deal, which is expected to close in Q3 2025, marks another step in Longevity’s pivot toward becoming a vertically integrated longevity-focused healthcare platform.

The merger comes just months after Longevity’s acquisition of Elevai Skincare and follows the company’s March 2025 announcement outlining a broader strategy to combine diagnostics, bio-aesthetics, and nutrition under the unifying theme “Healthy Aging, Inside and Out™.” With 20/20’s technology and distribution capabilities, Longevity is adding a diagnostics engine to its growing wellness infrastructure and positioning itself as a unique player at the intersection of science, skincare, and preventative healthcare.

Under the terms of the agreement, 20/20 shareholders will own approximately 50.1% of the combined company, with Longevity shareholders retaining 49.9%—a sign of parity and the significance of what 20/20 brings to the table. The merged company will continue to trade under the ticker “XAGE” on the Nasdaq.

Founded in Gaithersburg, Maryland, 20/20 operates a CLIA-licensed and CAP-accredited laboratory and has developed OneTest™, a multi-cancer early detection (MCED) blood test capable of identifying over a dozen tumor types for under $200. The company has already integrated its tests into wellness protocols for firefighters and military veterans and is preparing to launch a new “longevity test” this spring that evaluates inflammatory markers tied to aging and disease risk.

Financially, the merger is set to double Longevity’s expected revenue for fiscal year 2025 from $3–4 million to $7–8 million and deliver at least $1 million in operational synergies. The combined company’s equity valuation is pegged at $99 million, offering a promising growth profile in a market that increasingly values integrated health solutions.

For small-cap investors, the deal highlights an emerging investment theme: convergence in wellness, biotech, and diagnostics. Longevity is carving out a niche in a crowded but high-potential market by integrating scientific, consumer-facing products with medical-grade diagnostics. This cross-disciplinary approach could make it more resilient than standalone players focused solely on aesthetics or lab testing.

Beyond the numbers, Longevity plans to offer 20/20’s tests through its network of physicians to inform more personalized bio-aesthetic treatment plans. Conversely, 20/20 will gain access to Longevity’s customer base—including thousands of firefighters—to introduce its diagnostics in new environments, including MedSpas and retail.

Leadership will be shared post-merger. Longevity’s Rajiv Shukla will remain Chairman, while 20/20’s Jonathan Cohen will step in as CEO, underscoring a collaborative transition.

As Longevity eyes further acquisitions, this deal positions it as a unique micro-cap consolidator in the rapidly evolving healthy aging space. Investors should watch closely as the company scales up from niche science to potentially mass-market longevity solutions.
