NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Business Description.

Precipio, Inc., and its subsidiaries, (collectively, “we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or “Precipio”) is a healthcare biotechnology company focused on cancer diagnostics. Our mission is to address the pervasive problem of cancer misdiagnoses by developing solutions in the form of diagnostic products and services.

Our products and services aim to deliver higher accuracy, improved laboratory workflow, and ultimately better patient outcomes, which reduce healthcare expenses. We develop innovative technologies in our laboratory where we design, test, validate, and use these products clinically. We believe these technologies improve diagnostic outcomes across various diseases within the hematologic field. We then commercialize these technologies as proprietary products that serve the global laboratory community in furtherance of our mission to eliminate or greatly reduce the prevalence of misdiagnosis. To deliver our strategy, we have structured our organization to develop diagnostic products, including our laboratory and research and development (“R&D”) facilities located in New Haven, Connecticut and Omaha, Nebraska, respectively, which house teams that collaborate on the development of new products and services. We operate CLIA laboratories in both New Haven, Connecticut and Omaha, Nebraska where we provide essential blood cancer diagnostics to office-based oncologists in many states nationwide. To deliver on our strategy of mitigating misdiagnoses we rely heavily on our CLIA laboratory to support R&D beta-testing of the products we develop, in a clinical environment.

The development of laboratory products involves a qualified facility; highly skilled laboratory staff; and access to viable patient specimens to conduct development and testing. Our CLIA laboratory in New Haven, which is operated by our pathology services division, encapsulates these components, and also generates revenue for us which covers costs associated with operating this laboratory. This structure of utilizing our clinical lab to obtain samples and utilize the equipment and staffing to develop, test and validate our products, significantly reduces the development costs and timeline for our products. This also enables us to accelerate the time to market of new product development and launch.

Furthermore, as a clinical laboratory, we are always the first user of every product we develop, which allows us to optimize important laboratory functions such as workflow, inventory management, regulatory and billing issues. As a vendor, this places us as a reputable user of our own products, and we believe gains us significant credibility with existing and prospective customers. Furthermore, because we use our products as part of our day-to-day operations, we are able to deliver a high level of hands-on, experienced support to customers, improving their experience with our products.

Our Products Division commercial team generates direct sales and works with our key distributors. Global healthcare distributors, such as ThermoFisher, McKesson, and Cardinal Health, have partnered with us to form the backbone of our go-to-market strategy and enable us to access laboratories around the country that can benefit from using our diagnostic products.

Our operating structure promotes the harnessing of our proprietary technology and genetic diagnostic expertise to bring to market our robust pipeline of innovative solutions designed to address the root causes of misdiagnoses.

Going Concern.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable for a going concern, which assume that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial operating losses and has used cash in its operating activities for the past several years. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company had a net loss of $2.1 million and net cash used in operating activities of $0.7 million. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $100.2 million and a working capital deficit of $0.7 million. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed

Table of Contents

consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is dependent upon a combination of achieving its business plan, including generating additional revenue and avoiding potential business disruption due to the macroeconomic environment and geopolitical instability, and raising additional financing to meet its debt obligations and paying liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.

To meet its current and future obligations the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business:

●

On April 14, 2023, the Company entered into a sales agreement with AGP, pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell its common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $5.8 million, to or through AGP, as sales agent (the “AGP 2023 Sales Agreement”). The sale of our shares of common stock to or through AGP, pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement, will be made pursuant to the registration statement (the “2023 Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 (File No. 333-271277), filed by the Company with the SEC on April 14, 2023, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed by the Company with the SEC on April 25, 2023, and declared effective on April 27, 2023. As of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, we have received $0.1 million in gross proceeds through the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement from the sale of 11,847 shares of common stock. The Company has approximately $3.7 million available for future sales pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement. On April 8, 2024, we filed a prospectus supplement to our prospectus dated April 25, 2023 registering the offer and sale of up to $1,061,478 of shares of our common stock. We have approximately $1.0 million of remaining availability pursuant to this prospectus supplement. See Note 7 Stockholders’ Equity, AGP 2023 Sales Agreement, for further discussion.

●

On June 8, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which it received $2.0 million in gross proceeds through the sale of 206,250 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock. Issuance costs were approximately $0.2 million and the Company intends to use the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. See Note 7 Stockholders’ Equity, Registered Direct Offering, for further discussion.

Notwithstanding the aforementioned circumstances, there remains substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully achieve its initiatives summarized above in order to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report Form 10-Q. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern as a result of the outcome of this uncertainty.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with GAAP. As required under GAAP, pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split, unless otherwise indicated, the Company has adjusted all share amounts, per share data, share prices, exercise prices and conversion rates set forth in these notes and the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2024 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the interim periods.

Department of Economic and Community Development.

On January 8, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development (“DECD”) by which the Company received a loan of $300,000 secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets (the “DECD 2018 Loan”). The DECD 2018 Loan is a ten-year loan due on December 31, 2027 and includes interest paid monthly at 3.25%. The maturity date of the DECD 2018 Loan was extended to May 31, 2028 and the modification did not have a material impact on the Company’s cash flows.

Amortization of the debt issuance costs were less than $1 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Financed Insurance Loan.

The Company finances certain of its insurance premiums (the “Financed Insurance Loans”). In July 2023, the Company financed $0.4 million with a 9.99% interest rate and is obligated to make payments on a monthly basis through June 2024. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Financed Insurance Loan’s outstanding balance of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, was included in current maturities of long-term debt in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. A corresponding prepaid asset was included in other current assets.

The Company uses Change Healthcare, a healthcare technology company owned by UnitedHealth Group, to process some of its patient claims billings. In February 2024, Change Healthcare announced that it had experienced a cyberattack and as a result had to temporarily shut down some of its information technology systems. This system shut down caused delays in billing and reimbursement processes to Change Healthcare’s customers and, as a result, Change Healthcare established a Temporary Funding Assistance Program to help bridge the gap in short-term cash flow needs for customers affected by the disruption of its services due to the cyberattack. Funding distributed through this program is interest free and has no other fees or costs associated with it. Additionally, any funds provided through the program would have to be repaid to Change Healthcare approximately 45 days after Change Healthcare’s systems resume standard operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company received less than $0.1 million through Change Healthcare’s Temporary Assistance Program. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 the Temporary Funding Assistance Program’s outstanding balance of less than $0.1 million and zero, respectively, was included in accrued expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in legal proceedings related to matters, which are incidental to its business. Also, the Company is delinquent on the payment of outstanding accounts payable for certain vendors and suppliers who have taken or have threatened to take legal action to collect such outstanding amounts. See below for a discussion on these matters.

PURCHASE COMMITMENTS

The Company has entered into purchase commitments for reagents from suppliers. These agreements started in 2011 and run through 2025. The Company and the suppliers will true up the amounts on an annual basis. The future minimum purchase commitments under these and other purchase agreements are approximately $1.6 million and $1.9 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

LITIGATIONS

CPA Global provides us with certain patent management services. On February 6, 2017, CPA Global claimed that we owed approximately $0.2 million for certain patent maintenance services rendered. CPA Global has not filed claims against us in connection with this allegation. A liability of less than $0.1 million has been recorded and is reflected in accounts payable within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock.

Pursuant to our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, we currently have 150,000,000 shares of common stock authorized for issuance. On December 20, 2018, the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors to, in its discretion, amend the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the total number of authorized shares of common stock from 150,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares. The Company has not yet implemented this increase.

At The Market Offering Agreement

AGP Sales Agreement

On April 2, 2021, the Company entered into a sales agreement with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“AGP”), pursuant to which the Company was permitted to offer and sell its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (the “Shares”), having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $22.0 million. Shares can be sold either directly to or through AGP as a sales agent (the “AGP Sales Agreement”), from time to time, in an “at the market offering” (as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the Shares (the “2021 ATM Offering”). The Company is limited in the number of shares it can sell in the 2021 ATM Offering due to the offering limitations currently applicable to the Company under General Instruction I.B.6. of Form S-3 and the Company’s public float as of the applicable date of such sales, as well as the number of authorized and unissued shares available for issuance, in accordance with the terms of the AGP Sales Agreement.

The sale of our shares of Common Stock to or through AGP, will be made pursuant to the registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 (File No. 333-237445), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 13, 2020, for an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million.

Under the AGP Sales Agreement, Shares were permitted to be sold by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering.” AGP will also be able to sell shares of Common Stock by any other method permitted by law, including in negotiated transactions with the Company’s prior written consent. Upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the AGP Sales Agreement, AGP was required to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, applicable state and federal law, rules and regulations, and the rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market to sell the Shares from time to time based upon the Company’s instructions, including any price, time or size limits specified by the Company. AGP is not under any obligation to purchase any of the Shares on a principal basis pursuant to the AGP Sales Agreement, except as otherwise agreed by AGP and the Company in writing and expressly set forth in a placement notice. AGP’s obligations to sell the Shares under the AGP Sales Agreement are subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including customary closing conditions. The Company is not obligated to make any sales of Shares under the AGP Sales Agreement and any determination by the Company to do so will be dependent, among other things, on market conditions and the Company’s capital raising needs.

Table of Contents

The Company agreed to pay AGP a cash fee of 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of the Shares on the Company’s behalf pursuant to the AGP Sales Agreement. The AGP Sales Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that are customary for transactions of this type. In addition, the Company has provided AGP with customary indemnification and contribution rights. The Company also agreed to reimburse AGP for certain specified expenses, including the expenses of counsel to AGP. The offering of the Shares pursuant to the AGP Sales Agreement terminated upon the expiration of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-237445).

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we received net proceeds of $0.4 million from the sale of 27,191 shares of common stock through the AGP Sales Agreement.

As of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have received an aggregate of $15.6 million in net proceeds, after issuance costs of approximately $0.5 million, from the sale of 260,128 shares of common stock pursuant to the AGP Sales Agreement.

AGP 2023 Sales Agreement

On April 14, 2023, the Company entered into the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement, in an “at the market offering” (as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the shares of Common Stock. AGP will be entitled to a commission at a fixed rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from each sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement.

The sale of our shares of Common Stock to or through AGP, pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement, will be made pursuant to the 2023 Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-271277), filed by the Company with the SEC on April 14, 2023, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed by the Company with the SEC on April 25, 2023, and declared effective on April 27, 2023, for an aggregate offering price of up to $5.8 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we received net proceeds of $0.1 million from the sale of 10,167 shares of common stock pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement. As of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have received an aggregate of $0.1 million in net proceeds, after issuance costs of approximately $2.0 thousand, from the sales of 11,847 shares of common stock through AGP, including less than $0.1 million in net proceeds from the sale of 1,655 shares of common stock through AGP from April 1, 2024 through the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As a result of sales already made through the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement and the Registered Direct Offering, mentioned below, the Company has approximately $3.7 million available for future sales pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement. On April 8, 2024, we filed a prospectus supplement to our prospectus dated April 25, 2023 registering the offer and sale of up to $1,061,478 of shares of our common stock. We have approximately $1.0 million of remaining availability pursuant to this prospectus supplement.

Registered Direct Offering

On June 8, 2023, the Company, entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers, in a registered direct offering (the “Registered Direct Offering”), an aggregate of: (i) 206,250 shares (the “Shares”) of its common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), at a price of $9.00 per share, and (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 15,972 shares of Common Stock, at a price of $8.98 per Pre-Funded Warrant. The Company reviewed the provisions of the Pre-Funded Warrants to determine the balance sheet classification and concluded that these warrants are to be classified as equity and are not subject to remeasurement on each balance sheet date. The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable, have an exercise price of $0.02 per share, and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. All of the Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2023 and no Pre-Funded Warrants were outstanding as of March 31, 2024.

In a concurrent private placement (the “Private Placement” and together with the Registered Direct Offering, the “Offering”), pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers, for no additional

Table of Contents

consideration, warrants (the “RDO Common Warrants” and, together with the Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Securities”) to purchase up to 444,444 shares of Common Stock. The Company reviewed the provisions of the RDO Common Warrants to determine the balance sheet classification and concluded that these warrants are to be classified as equity and are not subject to remeasurement on each balance sheet date. The RDO Common Warrants are exercisable beginning six months after the date of issuance, have an exercise price of $12.60 per share, and will expire December 12, 2028. The fair value of the RDO Common Warrants of approximately $3.5 million at the date of issuance was estimated using the Black-Scholes model which used the following inputs: term of 5 years; risk free rate of 3.89%; volatility of 143%; and share price of $9.00 per share based on the trading price of the Company’s common stock. The Company allocated $1.3 million of the issuance proceeds to the RDO Common Warrants based on the relative fair value of the RDO Common Warrants, Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the Offering. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may not exercise the warrant if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may increase or decrease this percentage not in excess of 19.99% by providing at least 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.

The Registered Direct Offering resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $2.0 million. The net proceeds to the Company from the Registered Direct Offering are approximately $1.8 million, excluding any proceeds that may be received upon the cash exercise of the RDO Common Warrants, after deducting the financial advisor’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Registered Direct Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures, research and development expenditures, regulatory affairs expenditures, clinical trial expenditures, acquisitions of new technologies and investments and others.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, other obligations of the parties, and termination provisions. Additionally, each of the directors and executive officers of the Company, pursuant to lock-up agreements (the “Lock-Up Agreements”), agreed not to sell or transfer any of the Company securities which they hold, subject to certain exceptions, during the 90-day period following the closing of the Registered Direct Offering. The Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale by the Purchasers of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the RDO Common Warrants within thirty (30) days of the date of the Purchase Agreement. The Company filed this registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-273172), which was declared effective by the SEC on July 19, 2023.

On June 7, 2023, the Company also entered into a financial advisory agreement (the “Financial Advisor Agreement”) with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (the “Financial Advisor”). Pursuant to the terms of the Financial Advisor Agreement, the Financial Advisor agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the Securities. The Company paid the Financial Advisor a cash fee of $140,000 generated from the sale of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants.

The Financial Advisor Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Financial Advisor, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), other obligations of the parties, and termination provisions.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed that, subject to certain exceptions, (i) it will not issue any shares of common stock or securities exercisable or convertible into shares of common stock or to file any registration statement or amendment or supplement thereto for a period of ninety (90) days following the closing of the Offering and that (ii) it will not enter into a variable rate transaction for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days following the closing of the Offering.

The Registered Direct Offering was made pursuant to the 2023 Registration Statement, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated June 9, 2023. There is $3.7 million of remaining availability under the 2023 Registration Statement.

Preferred Stock.

The Company’s Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, from time to time, with such designations, powers, preferences and rights and such qualifications, limitations and restrictions as may be provided in a resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors.

Series B Preferred Stock.

The Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) with the State of Delaware, which designates 6,900 shares of our preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1 thousand per share and a par value of $0.01 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock includes a beneficial ownership blocker but has no dividend rights (except to the extent dividends are also paid on the common stock). On August 28, 2017, the Company completed an underwritten public offering consisting of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock and warrants.

The conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock contains a down round feature. The Company will recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. At that time, the effect would be treated as a deemed dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in our basic earnings per share calculation.

There were no conversions of Series B Preferred Stock during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had 6,900 shares of Series B Preferred Stock designated and issued and 47 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding. Based on the stated value of $1 thousand per share and a conversion price of $8.00 per share, the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock at March 31, 2024 were convertible into 5,875 shares of common stock.

Common Stock Warrants.

(1)These warrants were issued in connection with a 2018 securities purchase agreement, as amended.

(2) These warrants were issued in connection with convertible notes issued in May 2019.

(3) These warrants were issued in connection with the 2023 registered direct offering and concurrent private placement and are the RDO common warrants discussed below.

RDO Common Warrants. In connection with the Registered Direct Offering in June 2023, the Company issued 444,444 RDO Common Warrants to purchase up to 444,444 shares of Common Stock. The RDO Common Warrants are exercisable beginning six months after the date of issuance, have an exercise price of $12.60 per share, and will expire December 12, 2028.

8. FAIR VALUE

FASB guidance on fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements for our financial assets and liabilities, as well as for other assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

FASB guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price assets or liabilities. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2—Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets; and

Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions and best estimate of what inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Common Stock Warrant Liabilities.

Certain of our issued and outstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock do not qualify to be treated as equity and, accordingly, are recorded as a liability. We are required to record these instruments at fair value at each reporting date and changes are recorded as a non-cash adjustment to earnings. The gains or losses included in earnings are reported in other income (expense) in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities

During 2018 and 2019, the Company issued warrants in connection with the issuance of convertible notes. All of these warrants issuances were classified as warrant liabilities (the “Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities”).

The Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities are considered Level 3 financial instruments and were valued using the Black Scholes model. As of March 31, 2024, assumptions used in the valuation of the Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities include the following ranges: remaining life to maturity of 0.04 to 0.12 years; volatility rate of 48% to 54%; and risk-free rate of 5.49%. As of December 31, 2023, assumptions used in the valuation of the Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities include: remaining life to maturity of 0.3 to 0.4 years; volatility rate of 71% to 77%; and risk free rate of 5.33 to 5.40%.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were zero and less than $1 thousand, respectively.

9. EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

The Company currently issues stock awards under its 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2017 Plan”) which will expire on June 5, 2027. The shares authorized for issuance under the 2017 Plan were 320,699 at March 31, 2024, of which 87,998 were available for future grant. The shares authorized under the 2017 Plan are subject to annual increases on January 1 by 5% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31, or such lessor number of shares determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or Compensation Committee. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the shares authorized for issuance increased by 71,006 shares.

Stock Options.

The Company accounts for all stock-based compensation payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee stock options, at fair value at the date of grant and expenses the benefit in operating expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations over the service period of the awards. The Company records the expense for stock-based compensation awards subject to performance-based milestone vesting over the remaining service period when management determines that achievement of the milestone is probable based on the expected satisfaction of the performance conditions as of the reporting date. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires various assumptions including estimating stock price volatility, expected life of the stock option, risk free interest rate and estimated forfeiture rate.

Table of Contents

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted stock options to purchase up to 362 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $6.52 per share. These awards have vesting periods of up to four years and had a weighted average grant date fair value of $6.00. The fair value calculation of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2024 used the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 3.94%, based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant; expected life of six years; and volatility of 139% based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over a time that is consistent with the expected life of the option.

The following table summarizes stock option activity under our plans during the three months ended March 31, 2024:


	Number of	Weighted-Average
	Options	Exercise Price
Outstanding at January 1, 2024	232,744	$	46.56
Granted	362		6.52
Forfeited	(2,966)		18.07
Outstanding at March 31, 2024	230,140	$	46.87
Exercisable at March 31, 2024	169,631	$	52.61

As of March 31, 2024, there were 215,561 options that were vested or expected to vest with aggregate intrinsic value of zero and a remaining weighted average contractual life of 7.3 years.

Restricted Stock Awards.

Restricted stock awards are subject to vesting restrictions. If a grantee’s service with the Company is terminated prior to vesting of the restricted stock, all unvested shares shall be forfeited and returned to the Company. Upon vesting, the restricted stock award shall no longer be deemed restricted.

As of March 31, 2024, there were 2,492 and zero restricted stock awards that were vested and unvested, respectively.

There were no restricted stock awards granted during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Stock Compensation.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we recorded non-cash stock-based compensation expense for all stock awards of $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, within operating expense in the accompanying statements of operations. As of March 31, 2024, the unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock awards was $1.7 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.6 years.

10. SALES SERVICE REVENUE, NET AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from contracts with customers”

The Company follows the guidance of ASC 606 for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers to transfer goods and services. The Company performed a comprehensive review of its existing revenue arrangements following the five-step model:

Table of Contents

Disaggregation of Revenues by Transaction Type

We operate in one business segment and, therefore, the results of our operations are reported on a consolidated basis for purposes of segment reporting, consistent with internal management reporting. Service revenue, net for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(dollars in thousands)	Diagnostic Testing
	2024		2023
Medicaid	$	5	$	8
Medicare		1,091		880
Self-pay		18		80
Third party payers		1,705		1,100
Contract diagnostics and other		2		—
Service revenue, net	$	2,821	$	2,068

Revenue from the Medicare and Medicaid programs account for a portion of the Company’s patient diagnostic service revenue. Laws and regulations governing those programs are extremely complex and subject to interpretation. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in the near term.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using the expected value method based on historical experience. The Company does not typically enter arrangements where multiple contracts can be combined as the terms regarding services are generally found within a single agreement/requisition form. The Company derives its revenues from the following types of transactions: diagnostic testing (“Diagnostic”), revenues from the Company’s ICP technology and bio-pharma projects encompassing genetic diagnostics (collectively “Biomarker”), revenues from clinical research grants from state and federal research programs and diagnostic product sales, including revenues from equipment leases and reagent sales associated with our HSRR program.

Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue, or unearned revenue, refers to advance payments for products or services that are to be delivered in the future. The Company records such prepayment of unearned revenue as a liability, as revenue that has not yet been earned, but represents products or services that are owed to a customer. As the product or service is delivered over time, the Company recognizes the appropriate amount of revenue from deferred revenue. For the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the deferred revenue was $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Table of Contents

Contractual Allowances and Adjustments

We are reimbursed by payers for services we provide. Payments for services covered by payers average less than billed charges. We monitor revenue and receivables from payers and record an estimated contractual allowance for certain revenue and receivable balances as of the revenue recognition date to properly account for anticipated differences between amounts estimated in our billing system and amounts ultimately reimbursed by payers. Accordingly, the total revenue and receivables reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements are recorded at the amounts expected to be received from these payers. For service revenue, the contractual allowance is estimated based on several criteria, including unbilled claims, historical trends based on actual claims paid, current contract and reimbursement terms and changes in customer base and payer/product mix. The billing functions for the remaining portion of our revenue are contracted and fixed fees for specific services and are recorded without an allowance for contractual discounts. The following table presents our revenues initially recognized for each associated payer class during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company provides for a general allowance for collectability of services when recording net sales. The Company has adopted the policy of recognizing net sales to the extent it expects to collect that amount. Reference is made to FASB 954-605-45-5 and ASU 2011-07, Health Care Entities: Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Credit Loss, and the Allowance for Credit Losses. The change in the allowance for credit losses is directly related to the increase in patient service revenues. The following table presents our reported revenues net of the collection allowance and adjustments for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Customer Contract

Sales commissions are expensed when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded in operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Shipping and handling costs are comprised of inbound and outbound freight and associated labor. The Company accounts for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as fulfillment costs which are included in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounts Receivable

The Company has provided an allowance for potential credit losses, which has been determined based on management’s industry experience. The Company grants credit without collateral to its patients, most of who are insured under third party payer agreements.

The following summarizes the mix of receivables outstanding related to payer categories:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Information

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this Management’s Discussion and Analysis, contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on management’s current views, assumptions or beliefs of future events and financial performance and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Readers of this report should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. Many factors could affect our actual financial results and cause them to vary materially from the expectations contained in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things: our expected revenue, income (loss), receivables, operating expenses, the effects of the recent Change Healthcare cyberattack on us or our operations, supplier pricing, availability and prices of raw materials, insurance reimbursements, product pricing, foreign currency exchange rates, sources of funding operations and acquisitions, our ability to raise funds, sufficiency of available liquidity, future interest and inflation costs, future economic circumstances, business strategy, industry conditions and key trends, our ability to execute our operating plans, the success of our cost savings initiatives, competitive environment and related market conditions, our ability to comply with the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, expected financial and other benefits from our organizational restructuring activities, geopolitical uncertainties including the ongoing Russia and Ukraine conflict and the Israel-Hamas war, actions of governments and regulatory factors affecting our business, projections of future earnings, revenues, synergies, accretion or other financial items, any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations, retaining key employees and other risks as described in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In some cases these statements are identifiable through the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “target,” “can,” “could,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would” or the negative of such terms and other similar expressions.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements we make are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to various assumptions, risks and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by these forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements that we make for a number of reasons, including those described in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our prior filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

The following discussion should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the financial statements, related notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2024. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be attained in the future.

various diseases within the hematologic field. We then commercialize these technologies as proprietary products that serve the global laboratory community in furtherance of our mission to eliminate or greatly reduce the prevalence of misdiagnosis. To deliver our strategy, we have structured our organization to develop diagnostic products, including our laboratory and research and development (“R&D”) facilities located in New Haven, Connecticut and Omaha, Nebraska, respectively, which house teams that collaborate on the development of new products and services. We operate CLIA laboratories in both New Haven, Connecticut and Omaha, Nebraska where we provide essential blood cancer diagnostics to office-based oncologists in many states nationwide. To deliver on our strategy of mitigating misdiagnoses we rely heavily on our CLIA laboratory to support R&D beta-testing of the products we develop, in a clinical environment.

Going Concern

To meet its current and future obligations the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business:

●

Table of Contents

approximately $3.7 million available for future sales pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement. On April 8, 2024, we filed a prospectus supplement to our prospectus dated April 25, 2023 registering the offer and sale of up to $1,061,478 of shares of our common stock. We have approximately $1.0 million of remaining availability pursuant to this prospectus supplement.

●

Notwithstanding the aforementioned circumstances, there remains substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully achieve its initiatives summarized above in order to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern as a result of the outcome of this uncertainty.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

Net Sales. Net sales were as follows:


	Dollars in Thousands
	Three Months Ended
	March 31,				Change
	2024		2023		$		%
Service revenue, net, less allowance for credit loss	$	2,775	$	2,056	$	719	35	%
Other		657		761		(104)	(14)	%
Net Sales	$	3,432	$	2,817	$	615	22	%

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were approximately $3.4 million, an increase of $0.6 million as compared to the same period in 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, patient diagnostic service revenue increased $0.7 million as compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was due to a greater number of cases processed in the current year period. We processed 2,062 cases during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to 1,196 cases during the same period in 2023, or a 72% increase in cases. The benefit of the increase in cases billed during the first quarter of 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023 was partially offset by a lower average price per case during the current year as a result of a different product mix. Other revenue decreased by $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales includes material and supply costs for the patient tests performed, costs related to HSRR products and other direct costs (primarily personnel costs, pathologist interpretation costs and rent) associated with the operations of our laboratory. Cost of sales increased by $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023.

Gross Profit. Gross profit and gross margins were as follows:


	Dollars in Thousands
	Three Months Ended
	March 31,				Margin %
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Gross Profit	$	920	$	749	27	%	27	%

Gross margin was 27% of total net sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Gross profit was approximately $0.9 million and $0.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The gross profit increased during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, as a result of increases in case volume and revenue. We operate a fully staffed CLIA and CAP certified clinical

Table of Contents

pathology and molecular laboratory. As such, it is necessary to maintain appropriate staffing levels to provide industry standard laboratory processing and reporting to ordering physicians. An increase in case volume will enable our laboratory to yield economies of scale and to leverage fixed expenses.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses primarily consist of personnel costs, professional fees, travel costs, facility costs, stock-based compensation costs and depreciation and amortization. Our operating expenses decreased by $0.8 million to $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease was attributable to: (1) a decrease of $0.1 million in stock-based compensation expense, (2) a decrease of $0.6 million in sales and marketing expenses due mainly to decreases in personnel costs as a result of a lower headcount, and (3) a decrease of $0.1 million in research and development expenses.

Other (Expense) Income. We recorded net other expense $5 thousand and $4 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which was related to net interest expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our working capital positions were as follows:


	March 31, 2024		December 31, 2023		Change
Current assets (including cash of $776 and $1,502 respectively)	$	2,595	$	3,682	$	(1,087)
Current liabilities		3,327		3,141		186
Working capital	$	(732)	$	541	$	(1,273)

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 we received net proceeds of $0.1 million from sale of 10,167 shares of our common stock through at the market offerings. The Company has approximately $3.7 million available for future sales pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement.

Analysis of Cash Flows – Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023		Change
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(667)	$	(1,575)	$	908

Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities. The cash flows used in operating activities of approximately $0.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 included a net loss of $2.1 million, an increase in inventories of $0.1 million and a decrease in operating lease liabilities and accrued expenses of $0.1 million. These were partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivables of $0.3 million, a decrease in other assets of $0.1 million, an increase in accounts payable of $0.3 million, an increase in deferred revenues of $0.1 million, and non-cash adjustments of $0.8 million. The non-cash adjustments included $0.1 million for the change in provision for credit losses. We routinely provide a reserve for credit losses as a result of having limited in-network payer contracts. The other non-cash adjustments to net loss of approximately $0.7 million include, among other things, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation. The cash flows used in operating activities of approximately $1.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 included a net loss of $3.0 million and a decrease in operating lease liabilities of less than $0.1 million. These were partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivables of $0.2 million, a decrease in inventories of $0.2 million, a decrease in other assets of $0.1 million, an increase in accounts payable of $0.1 million, an increase in accrued expenses of $0.1 million, and non-cash adjustments of $0.8 million.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The healthcare industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirement, reimbursement for patient services and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Government activity has increased with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations by healthcare providers.

Violations of these laws and regulations could result in expulsion from government healthcare programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. Management believes that the Company is in compliance with fraud and abuse regulations, as well as other applicable government laws and regulations. While no material regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions unknown or unasserted at this time.

The outcome of legal proceedings and claims brought against us are subject to significant uncertainty. Therefore, although management considers the likelihood of such an outcome to be remote, if one or more of these legal matters were resolved against us in the same reporting period for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, our financial statements for such reporting period could be materially adversely affected. In general, the resolution of a legal matter could prevent us from offering our services or products to others, could be material to our financial condition or cash flows, or both, or could otherwise adversely affect our operating results.

The Company is involved in legal proceedings related to matters, which are incidental to its business and is delinquent on the payment of outstanding accounts payable for certain vendors and suppliers who have taken or have threatened to take legal action to collect such outstanding amounts.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

As disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, there are a number of risks and uncertainties that may have a material effect on the operating results of our business and our financial condition. The following information updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

We have incurred losses since our inception and expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We cannot be certain that we will achieve or sustain profitability.

We have incurred losses since our inception and expect to incur losses in the future. At March 31, 2024, we had a working capital deficit of $0.7 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had an operating cash flow deficit of $0.7 million and a net loss of $2.1 million. For the period ended March 31, 2024, we have experienced negative cash flow from development of our diagnostic technology, as well as from the costs associated with establishing a laboratory and building a sales force to market our products and services. We expect to incur substantial net losses through at least 2024 as we further develop and commercialize our diagnostic technology. We also expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will continue to increase due to the additional costs associated with market development activities and expanding our staff to sell and support our products. Our ability to achieve or, if achieved, sustain profitability is based on numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the market acceptance of our products, competitive product development and our market penetration and margins. We may never be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or, if achieved, sustain profitability.

Table of Contents

We may need to raise substantial additional capital to commercialize our diagnostic technology, and our failure to obtain funding when needed may force us to delay, reduce or eliminate our product development programs or collaboration efforts or force us to restrict or cease operations.

As of March 31, 2024, we had cash of $0.8 million and a working capital deficit of $0.7 million. Due to our recurring losses from operations and the expectation that we will continue to incur losses in the future, we may be required to raise additional capital to complete the development and commercialization of our current product candidates and to pay off our obligations. To date, to fund our operations and develop and commercialize our products, we have relied primarily on equity and debt financings. In future periods, when we seek additional capital, we may seek to sell additional equity and/or debt securities or to obtain a credit facility, which we may not be able to do on favorable terms, or at all. Our ability to obtain additional financing will be subject to a number of factors, including market conditions, our operating performance and investor sentiment. If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of one or more of our product candidates, restrict or cease our operations or obtain funds by entering into agreements on unattractive terms.

The sale or issuance of our common stock to, or through, AGP, or otherwise, may cause significant dilution and the sale of the shares of common stock acquired by AGP or others, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the price of our common stock to fall.

On April 14, 2023, we entered into a sales agreement with AGP, pursuant to which we may offer and sell our Common Stock, having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $5.8 million, to or through AGP, from time to time, in an at-the-market offering (the “2023 ATM Offering”). We are limited in the number of shares we can sell in the 2023 ATM Offering due to the offering limitations currently applicable to the Company under General Instruction I.B.6. of Form S-3 and the Company’s public float as of the applicable date of such sales, as well as the number of authorized and unissued shares available for issuance, in accordance with the terms of the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement. Sales to, or through, AGP by us could result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. Additionally, the sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock, or the anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.

From April 14, 2023 through the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on From 10-Q, we received $0.1 million in gross proceeds through the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement from the sale of 11,847 shares of Common Stock. The Company has an additional $3.7 million available for future sales pursuant to the AGP 2023 Sales Agreement. On January 8, 2024, we filed a prospectus supplement to our prospectus dated April 25, 2023 registering the offer and sale of up to $1,061,478 of shares of our common stock. We have approximately $1.0 million of remaining availability pursuant to this prospectus supplement.

We have issued a substantial number of warrants and equity awards from our equity plans which are exercisable into shares of our common stock which could result in substantial dilution to the ownership interests of our existing stockholders.

As of March 31, 2024, approximately 459,535 shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance upon exercise or conversion of outstanding warrants. Additionally, 230,140 shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding stock options. The exercise or conversion of these securities will result in a significant increase in the number of outstanding shares and substantially dilute the ownership interests of our existing stockholders. The shares underlying the equity awards from our equity plans are registered on a Form S-8 registration statement. As a result, upon vesting these shares can be freely exercised and sold in the public market upon issuance, subject to volume limitations applicable to affiliates. The exercise of options and the subsequent sale of the underlying common stock could cause a decline in our stock price.

Cybersecurity risks could compromise our information and expose us to liability, which may harm our ability to operate effectively and may cause our business and reputation to suffer.

Cybersecurity refers to the combination of technologies, processes and procedures established to protect information technology systems and data from unauthorized access, misuse, attack, or damage. We rely on our information systems to

Table of Contents

provide security for processing, transmission and storage of confidential information about our patients, customers and personnel, such as names, addresses and other individually identifiable information protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, (“HIPAA”), other privacy laws. We rely on our third-party providers to implement effective security measures and identify and correct for any such failures, deficiencies or incidents. We also rely on our employees and consultants to safeguard their security credentials and follow our policies and procedures regarding use and access of computers and other devices that may contain our sensitive information. If we or our third-party providers fail to maintain or protect our information technology systems and data integrity effectively or fail to anticipate, plan for or manage significant disruptions to our information technology systems, we or our third-party providers could have difficulty preventing, detecting and controlling such cyberattacks and any such attacks could result in losses described above, as well as disputes with physicians, patients and our partners, regulatory sanctions or penalties, increases in operating expenses, expenses or lost revenues or other adverse consequences, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, prospects and cash flows. Any failure by such third parties to prevent or mitigate security breaches or improper access to, misuse of, or disclosure of such information could have similarly adverse consequences for us. For example, our vendor, Change Healthcare, disclosed a security incident in February 2024 which resulted in temporary inaccessibility of certain of its information technology systems. While the Change Healthcare incident did not materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results, it did result in temporary delays in our ability to complete our typical billing and reimbursement processes. If, in the future, we are unable to prevent or mitigate the impact of such security or data privacy breaches or other incidents, we could be exposed to litigation and governmental investigations, which could lead to a potential disruption to our business.

Cyberattacks are increasing in their frequency, sophistication and intensity, and have become increasingly difficult to detect. Cyberattacks could include wrongful conduct by hostile foreign governments, industrial espionage, wire fraud and other forms of cyber fraud, the deployment of harmful malware, denial-of-service, social engineering fraud or other means to threaten data security, confidentiality, integrity and availability. A successful cyberattack could cause serious negative consequences for us, including, without limitation, the disruption of operations, the misappropriation of confidential business information, including financial information, trade secrets, financial loss and the disclosure of corporate strategic plans. The regulatory environment surrounding information security and privacy is increasingly demanding, with the frequent imposition of new and changing requirements. Compliance with changes in privacy and information security laws and with rapidly evolving industry standards may result in our incurring significant expense due to increased investment in technology and the development of new operational processes.

We have not experienced any known attacks on our information technology systems that compromised any confidential information. We maintain our information technology systems with safeguards designed to protect against cyberattacks including passive intrusion protection, firewalls and virus detection software. However, these safeguards do not ensure that a significant cyberattack could not occur. Although we have taken steps to protect the security of our information systems and the data maintained in those systems, it is possible that our safety and security measures will not prevent the systems’ improper functioning or damage or the improper access or disclosure of personally identifiable information such as in the event of cyberattacks.

Security incidents, including physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses, attacks by hackers and similar incidents can create system disruptions or shutdowns or the unauthorized disclosure of, access to, or misuse of confidential information. If personal information or protected health information is improperly accessed, tampered with, misused or disclosed as a result of a security breach, we may incur significant costs to notify and mitigate potential harm to the affected individuals, and we may be subject to sanctions and civil or criminal penalties if we are found to be in violation of the privacy or security rules under HIPAA or other similar federal or state laws protecting confidential personal information. In addition, a security breach of or other incident affecting our information systems could damage our reputation, subject us to liability claims or regulatory penalties for compromised personal information and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations

There have been no other material changes from the risk factors disclosed in “Part I, Item 1A—Risk Factors” of our most recent Annual Report. The above risk factor should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed therein.
