Defined Contribution Plans

The Company maintains a defined-contribution 401(k) retirement plan covering substantially all U.S. based employees (as defined). The Company's employees may make voluntary contributions to the plan, subject to limitations based on IRS regulations and compensation. Effective January 1, 2017, the Company matches 100% of every dollar contributed up to 3% of the respective employee’s compensation and an additional 50% of every dollar contributed on the next 2% of compensation (4% maximum Company match). Matching contributions were approximately $1.4 million and $4.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $1.1 million and $3.7 million for the corresponding periods ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and are recorded in cost of revenue and operating expenses.

As of the Inivata Acquisition Date, the Company operates a number of country-specific defined contribution pension plans for its employees and pays matching contributions into a separate entity through Inivata Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Employer contributions are made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the respective country benefit plan. Employees may make additional contributions in accordance with the prevailing statutory limitations. Once the contributions have been paid, the Company has no further payment obligations. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company and Inivata Limited in independently administered funds. The contributions are recognized as an expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations when they are due. Amounts not paid are accrued as a short-term liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Such amounts for the period beginning on the Inivata Acquisition Date through September 30, 2021 were immaterial.
