NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Unaudited

Note A – Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

NeoGenomics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Parent”), and its subsidiaries, NeoGenomics Laboratories, Inc., a Florida corporation (“NEO” or, “NeoGenomics Laboratories”), NeoGenomics Bioinformatics Inc., a Florida corporation, Path Labs LLC., a Delaware limited liability company (“PathLogic”) and Clarient Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc. (together, “Clarient”), (collectively referred to as “we”, “us”, “our”, “NeoGenomics”, or the “Company”), operates as a certified “high complexity” clinical laboratory in accordance with the federal government’s Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act, as amended (“CLIA”), and is dedicated to the delivery of clinical diagnostic services to pathologists, oncologists, urologists, hospitals, and other laboratories throughout the United States.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. These accompanying interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Parent and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been condensed or omitted in these accompanying interim consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2017.  

The results of operations presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any future periods. In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of all interim periods reported herein.

We have one reportable operating segment that delivers testing services to hospitals, pathologists, oncologists, other clinicians, and researchers, which represents 100% of the Company’s consolidated assets, net revenues and net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.  We have evaluated our segments based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), our Chief Executive Officer, reviews performance and makes decisions in managing the Company.  At March 31, 2017, all of our services were provided within the United States and all of our assets were located in the United States.

We have two primary types of customers, clinical and pharma.  Our clinical customers include community based pathology practices, oncology groups, hospitals and academic centers.  Our pharma customers include pharmaceutical companies to whom we provide testing and other services to support their studies and clinical trials.  We continue to assess the information available to the CODM since the close of the Clarient acquisition.  Currently, discrete financial information is not available to the CODM about the separate financial performance of our clinical and our pharma customers.  As we continue to integrate the two companies and focus separately on the two customer types we will routinely assess the information available and reviewed by the CODM and determine if we meet the criteria for having separate segments.

Note B — Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU “) No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The standard update requires excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to be recorded directly through earnings as a component of income tax expense. Under current GAAP, these differences are generally recorded in additional paid-in capital and thus have no impact on net income. The change will also impact the computation of diluted earnings per share, and the cash flows associated with those items will be classified as operating activities on the condensed statements of consolidated cash flows. Entities will be permitted to make an accounting policy election for the impact of forfeitures on the recognition of expense for share-based payment awards. Forfeitures can be estimated, as required under current GAAP, or recognized when they occur.

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Unaudited

The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017 using the transition method prescribed for each applicable provision:

• Based on the implementation guidance, previously unrecognized excess tax benefits should be recognized on a modified retrospective basis beginning in the period the guidance is adopted.  Accordingly, the Company recorded an increase in deferred tax assets and an offsetting cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings of $6.6 million as of January 1, 2017 for excess tax benefits not previously recognized.  

• Based on the implementation guidance, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to share based compensation will be reported in net income (loss) on a prospective basis.  

• The Company has elected to retrospectively adopt the requirement to present cash flows related to excess tax benefits as cash flows from operating activities.  This adoption had no effect on cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

• The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures in compensation cost as they occur.

Issued

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations.  This standard clarifies the definition of a business and provides guidance on when transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets and when they should be accounted for as acquisitions of businesses.  This update is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption is permitted.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017 the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other:  Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.  This standard eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021.  Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.  

In August 2016, the FASB issued “ASU” 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.  This standard clarifies how specific cash receipts and cash payments are classified and presented in the statement of cash flows. This update is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption is permitted.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-15 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.  

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The updaterequires organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those periods.  The adoption of this ASU will result in an increase on the balance sheet for lease liabilities and right to use assets.  The Company is currently evaluating the quantitative impact that adopting ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenues from Contracts with Customers. This standard update calls for a number of revisions in the revenue recognition rules. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of this ASU to the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted beginning in the first quarter of 2017.  The ASU can be applied using a full retrospective method or a modified retrospective method of adoption.  The Company expects to adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2018 using a full retrospective method of adoption.  We anticipate enhanced financial statement disclosures surrounding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows.  While we continue to assess the impact of the adoption of this standard, we do not expect that it will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note D — Debt

The following table summarizes the long term debt at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (in thousands):

	March 31, 2017			December 31, 2016
Term Loan Facility	$	74,063		$	75,000
Revolving Credit Facility		27,900			22,900

Less:  Current portion of long-term debt		(8,834	)		(8,733	)
Total Long-Term Debt, net	$	102,154		$	97,436

The carrying value of the Company’s long-term capital lease obligations and term debt approximates its fair value based on the current market conditions for similar instruments. 

Term Loan

On December 22, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Regions Bank as administrative agent and collateral agent.  The Credit Agreement provided for a $75.0 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”).  The Credit Agreement also provides incremental facility capacity of $50 million, subject to certain conditions.  On March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had current outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan of approximately $3.8 million and long-term outstanding borrowings of approximately $69.3 and $70.1 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.0 and $1.1 million, respectively.  The debt issuance costs were recorded as a reduction in the carrying amount of the related liability and are being amortized over the life of the loan.

The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at NeoGenomics Laboratories’ option, either (1) the Adjusted LIBOR rate for the relevant interest period, (2) an alternate base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (a) the prime lending rate of Regions, (b) the federal funds rate for the relevant interest period plus 0.5% per annum and (c) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1% per annum, or (3) a combination of (1) and (2). The applicable margin will range from 2.25% to 3.50% for LIBOR loans and 1.25% to 2.50% for base rate loans, in each case based on NeoGenomics Laboratories’ consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Interest on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is payable on the last day of each month, in the case of each base rate loan, and on the last day of each interest period (but no less frequently than every three months), in the case of Adjusted LIBOR loans.  The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge against changes in the variable rate of a portion of this debt.  See Note E-Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for more information on this instrument.

The Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured on a first priority basis by a security interest in substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of NeoGenomics Laboratories and the Guarantors.  The Term Loan Facility contains various affirmative and negative covenants including ability to incur liens and encumbrances; make certain restricted payments, including paying dividends on its equity securities or payments to redeem, repurchase or retire its equity securities; enter into certain restrictive agreements; make investments, loans and acquisitions; merge or consolidate with any other person; dispose of assets; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; engage in transactions with its affiliates, and materially alter the business it conducts.  In addition, the Company must meet certain maximum leverage ratios and fixed charge coverage ratios as of the end of each fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2017.  The Company was in compliance with all required covenants as of March 31, 2017.

The Term Loan Facility has a maturity date of December 21, 2021.  The Credit Agreement requires NeoGenomics Laboratories to mandatorily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility with (i) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain sales and dispositions, subject to certain reinvestment rights, (ii) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain issuances or incurrences of additional debt, (iii) beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017, 50% of excess cash flow (as defined), subject to a step down to 0% of excess cash flow if NeoGenomics Laboratories’ consolidated leverage ratio is no greater than 2.75:1.0 and (iv) 100% of net cash proceeds from issuances of permitted equity securities by NeoGenomics Laboratories made in order to cure a failure to comply with the financial covenants. NeoGenomics Laboratories is permitted to voluntarily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time without penalty.

Auto Loans

The Company has auto loans with various financial institutions.  The auto loan terms range from 36-60 months and carry interest rates from 0.0% to 5.2%.

Capital Leases

The Company has entered into capital leases to purchase laboratory and office equipment.  These leases expire at various dates through 2020 and the weighted average interest rate under such leases was approximately 5.64% at March 31, 2017. Most of these leases contain bargain purchase options that allow us to purchase the leased property for a minimal amount upon the expiration of the lease term. The remaining leases have purchase options at fair market value.      

Property and equipment acquired under capital lease agreements are pledged as collateral to secure the performance of the future minimum lease payments.

Revolving Credit Facility

On December 22, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Regions Bank as administrative agent and collateral agent.  The Credit Agreement provided for a $75.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”).  On March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had outstanding borrowings of approximately $26.9 and $21.8 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.0 and $1.1 million, respectively.

The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $10 million swingline sublimit, with swingline loans bearing interest at the alternate base rate plus the applicable margin. Any principal outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility is due and payable on December 21, 2021 or such earlier date as the obligations under the Credit Agreement become due and payable pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.  The Revolving Facility bears interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at NeoGenomics Laboratories’ option, either (1) the Adjusted LIBOR rate for the relevant interest period, (2) an alternate base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (a) the prime lending rate of Regions, (b) the federal funds rate for the relevant interest period plus 0.5% per annum and (c) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1% per annum, or (3) a combination of (1) and (2). The applicable margin will range from 2.25% to 3.50% for Adjusted LIBOR loans and 1.25% to 2.50% for base rate loans, in each case based on NeoGenomics Laboratories’ consolidated leverage ratio. Interest on the outstanding principal of the Term Loan Facility will be payable on the last day of each month, in the case of each base rate loan, and on the last day of each interest period (but no less frequently than every three months), in the case of LIBOR loans.

The Credit Agreement requires NeoGenomics Laboratories to mandatorily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility with (i) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain sales and dispositions, subject to certain reinvestment rights, (ii) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain issuances or incurrences of additional debt, (iii) beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017, 50% of excess cash flow (minus certain specified other payments), subject to a step down to 0% of excess cash flow if NeoGenomics Laboratories’ consolidated leverage ratio is no greater than 2.75:1.0 and (iv) 100% of net cash proceeds from issuances of permitted equity securities by NeoGenomics Laboratories made in order to cure a failure to comply with the financial covenants. NeoGenomics Laboratories is permitted to voluntarily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time without penalty, subject to customary “breakage” costs with respect to prepayments of Adjusted LIBOR rate loans made on a day other than the last day of any applicable interest period.

Note E – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Cash Flow Hedges

In December of 2016, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on our variable rate debt obligations.  This derivative financial instrument is accounted for at fair value as a cash flow hedge which effectively modifies our exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of our floating rate debt to a fixed rate obligation, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense.

We account for derivatives in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, see Note B-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information on our accounting policy related to derivative instruments and hedging activities.  

Under this agreement, we receive a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR, and we pay a fixed rate of interest at 1.59%.  The interest rate swap agreement was effective as of December 30, 2016 and a termination date of December 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the total notional amount of the Company’s interest rate swaps were $50 million.

The fair value of the interest rate swap will be included in other long term assets or liabilities, when applicable.  As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the interest rate swap was not considered to be significant due to the change in LIBOR over that time period outstanding, therefore, no amount is included on the balance sheet for this instrument.  As the specific terms and notional amounts of the derivative financial instrument match those of the fixed-rate debt being hedged, the derivative instruments are assumed to be perfectly effective hedges and accordingly, there is no impact to the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Gains and losses on this interest rate swap agreement will be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be reclassified to interest expense in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.  At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there was no impact to accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) as it was determined that there was not a significant change to record.  The fair value of this instrument will be evaluated on a quarterly basis and adjusted as necessary.

Note F — Class A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

On December 30, 2015, NeoGenomics issued 14,666,667 shares of its Series A Preferred stock as part of the consideration for the acquisition of Clarient.  The Series A Preferred Stock has a face value of $7.50 per share for a total liquidation value of $110 million.  During the first year, the Series A Preferred Stock had a liquidation value of $100 million if the shares were redeemed prior to December 29, 2016.  On December 22, 2016, the Company redeemed 8,066,667 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for $55.0 million in cash.  The redemption amount per share equaled $6.8181825 ($7.50 minus the liquidation discount of 9.0909%).  At March 31, 2017, 6,600,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were outstanding.  

The carrying amount of the Series A Preferred Stock at March 31, 2017 was $25,439 million as compared to the carrying amount at December 31, 2016 of $22,873 million.  The increase in the carrying amount is from the accrual of deemed dividends of approximately $894,000 and the accretion of the beneficial conversion feature of approximately $1.7 million during the three months ending March 31, 2017, of which both amounts are recorded as distributions to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock on the income statement with the corresponding entry recorded as an increase to the carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Issue Discount

The Company recorded the Series A Preferred Stock at a fair value of approximately $73.2 million or $4.99 per share on the date of issuance.  The difference between the fair value of $73.2 million and the liquidation value of $110 million represents a discount of $36.8 million from the initial face value as a result of assessing the impact the rights and features of the instrument and their effect on the value to the Company.  After redemption, the Series A Preferred stock has a fair value of approximately $32,940 or $4.99 per share.  The difference between the fair value of $32,940 and the liquidation value of $49,500 represents a discount of $16,560.  

Beneficial Conversion Features

The fair value of the common stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible exceeded the allocated purchase price fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock at the date of issuance and after redemption by approximately $44.7 and $20.1 million, respectively, resulting in a beneficial conversion feature.  The Company will recognize the beneficial conversion feature as non-cash, deemed dividend to the holder of Series A Preferred Stock over the first three years the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, as the date the stock first becomes convertible is three years from the issue date.  The amount recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was approximately $1.7 million.  

In addition to the beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) recorded at the original issue date, we recorded additional BCF discounts for payment-in-kind shares accrued for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, as dividends.  After the early redemption, the face value of the remaining Series A Preferred Stock is $49.5 million.  We will issue 264,000 additional shares ($49.5 million * 4.0%) / $7.50) of Series A Preferred Stock as payment-in-kind dividends for the year ending December 31, 2017, the first year dividends are payable. The additional 264,000 shares will be discounted and amortized to the income statement over the remaining period up to the earliest conversion date, which is three years from the original issue date.  The additional BCF discount recorded at March 31, 2017 was approximately $201,000.

Automatic Conversion

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of the tenth anniversary of the original issue date will automatically convert into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock.

Classification  

The Company classified the Series A Preferred Stock as temporary equity on the consolidated balance sheets due to certain change in control events that are outside the Company’s control, including deemed liquidation events described in the Series A Certificate of Designation.

Note G — Revenue Recognition and Contractual Adjustments

The Company recognizes revenues when (a) the price is fixed or determinable, (b) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (c) the service is performed and (d) collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company’s specialized diagnostic services are performed based on a written test requisition form or electronic equivalent, and revenues are recognized once the diagnostic services have been performed, and the results have been delivered to the ordering physician.  These diagnostic services are billed to various payers, including Medicare, commercial insurance companies, other directly billed healthcare institutions such as hospitals and clinics, and individuals.  The Company reports revenues from contracted payers, including Medicare, certain insurance companies and certain healthcare institutions, based on the contractual rate, or in the case of Medicare, published fee schedules.  The Company reports revenues from non-contracted payers, including certain insurance companies and individuals, based on the amount expected to be collected.  The difference between the amount billed and the amount estimated to be collected from non-contracted payers is recorded as an allowance to arrive at the reported net revenues.  The expected revenues from non-contracted payers are based on the historical collection experience of each payer or payer group, as appropriate.  The Company records revenues from patient pay tests net of a large discount and as a result recognizes minimal revenue on those tests.  The Company regularly reviews its historical collection experience for non-contracted payers and adjusts its expected revenues for current and subsequent periods accordingly.

The table below shows the adjustments made to gross service revenues to arrive at net revenues (in thousands), the amount reported on our statements of operations.

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto included herein. The information contained below includes statements of the Company’s or management’s beliefs, expectations, hopes, goals and plans that, if not historical, are forward-looking statements subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. For a discussion on forward-looking statements, see the information set forth in the introductory note to this quarterly report on Form 10-Q under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements”, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Overview

We operate a network of cancer-focused genetic testing laboratories in the United States.  Our mission is to improve patient care through exceptional genetic and molecular testing services. Our vision is to become the World’s leading cancer testing and information company by delivering uncompromising quality, exceptional service and innovative solutions.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had laboratory locations in Aliso Viejo, Fresno and West Sacramento, CA; Tampa and Fort Myers, FL; Houston, TX and Nashville, TN; and currently offers the following types of genetic and molecular testing services:

a) Cytogenetics - the study of normal and abnormal chromosomes and their relationship to disease. It involves looking at the chromosome structure to identify changes from patterns seen in normal chromosomes. Cytogenetic studies are often utilized to answer diagnostic, prognostic and predictive questions in the treatment of hematological malignancies.

b) Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization (“FISH”) - a branch of cancer genetics that focuses on detecting and locating the presence or absence of specific DNA sequences and genes on chromosomes. FISH helps bridge abnormality detection between the chromosomal and DNA sequence levels. The technique uses fluorescent probes that bind to only those parts of the chromosome with which they show a high degree of sequence similarity. Fluorescence microscopy is used to visualize the fluorescent probes bound to the chromosomes. FISH can be used to help identify a number of gene alternations, such as amplification, deletions, and translocations.

c) Flow cytometry - a rapid way to measure the characteristics of cell populations. Cells from peripheral blood, bone marrow aspirate, lymph nodes, and other areas are labeled with selective fluorescent antibodies and analyzed as they flow in a fluid stream through a beam of light. The properties measured in these antibodies include the relative size, relative granularity or internal complexity, and relative fluorescence intensity. These fluorescent antibodies bind to specific cell surface antigens and are used to identify malignant cell populations. Flow cytometry is typically performed in diagnosing a wide variety of leukemia and lymphoma neoplasms. Flow cytometry is also used to monitor patients through therapy to determine whether the disease burden is increasing or decreasing, otherwise known as minimal residual disease monitoring.

d) Immunohistochemistry (“IHC”) and Digital Imaging – Refers to the process of localizing proteins in cells of a tissue section and relies on the principle of antibodies binding specifically to antigens in biological tissues. IHC is widely used in the diagnosis of abnormal cells such as those found in cancerous tumors. Specific surface cytoplasmic or nuclear markers are characteristic of cellular events such as proliferation or cell death (apoptosis). IHC is also widely used to understand the distribution and localization of differentially expressed proteins.  Digital imaging allows clients to see and utilize scanned slides and perform quantitative analysis for certain stains.  Scanned slides are received online in real time and can be previewed often a full day before the glass slides can be shipped back to clients.

e) Molecular testing - a rapidly growing cancer testing methodology that focuses on the analysis of DNA and RNA, as well as the structure and function of genes at the molecular level. Molecular testing employs multiple technologies including DNA fragment length analysis, real-time polymerase chain reaction (“RT-PCR”) RNA analysis, bi-directional Sanger sequencing analysis, and Next-Generation Sequencing (“NGS”).

f) Pathology consultation - services provided to clients whereby our pathologists review surgical samples on a consultative basis. NeoGenomics is one of a few laboratories in the country with an electron microscopy lab which enables us to analyze complex renal cases.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Clinical Cancer Testing Services

The cancer testing services we offer to community-based pathologists are designed to be a natural extension of, and complementary to, the services that they perform within their own practices. We believe our relationship as a non-competitive partner to community-based pathology practices, hospital pathology labs and academic centers empowers them to expand their breadth of testing and provide a menu of services that matches or exceeds the level of service found in any center of excellence around the world.

Pharma Services and Clinical Trials

Our Pharma Services division supports pharmaceutical firms in their drug development programs by supporting various clinical trials.  This portion of our business often involves working with the pharmaceutical firms (sponsors) on study design as well as performing the required testing.  Our medical team often advises the sponsor and works closely with them as specimens are received from the enrolled sites.  We also work on developing tests that will be used as part of a companion diagnostic to determine patients’ response to a particular drug.  As studies unfold, our clinical trials team reports the data and often provide key analysis and insights back to the sponsors.

Our Pharma Services and Clinical Trials group provides comprehensive testing services in support of our pharmaceutical clients’ oncology programs from discovery to commercialization.  In biomarker discovery, our aim is to help our customers discover the right content.  We help our customers develop a biomarker hypothesis by recommending an optimal platform for molecular screening and backing our discovery tools with the informatics to capture meaningful data.  In other pre and non-clinical work, we can use our platforms to characterize markers of interest.   Moving from discovery to development, we help our customers refine their biomarker strategy and, if applicable, develop a companion diagnostic pathway using the optimal technology for large-scale clinical trial testing.

Whether serving as the single contract research organization or partnering with one, our Pharma Services and Clinical Trials team provides significant technical expertise working closely with our customers to support each stage of clinical trial development.  Each trial we support comes with rapid turnaround time, dedicated project management and quality assurance oversight. We have experience in supporting submissions to the Federal Drug Administration for companion diagnostics.  Our Pharma Services strategy is focused on helping bring more effective oncology treatments to market through providing world class laboratory services in oncology to key pharmaceutical companies in the industry.

2017 Focus Areas: Develop High Performance Culture, Inspire & “Own” Quality, Accelerate Growth and Advance Our Strategy

Over the past several years, NeoGenomics has experienced rapid growth including organic growth from offering new tests to existing customers, growth from gaining market share from our competitors, and growth from acquisitions.  We expect to continue to grow our business in 2017 and are focused on several initiatives to continue to build our company to be the World’s leading cancer testing and information company.

Develop our High Performance Culture  

We are building our high performance culture by empowering our employees and investing in their growth.  We are providing skill based training, education, and mentoring our supervisors and managers to allow them to grow within the Company.  We communicated career opportunities and performance objectives and hold each employee accountable for their own development.  Teamwork is highly encouraged through the use of team performance incentive plans as well as other meaningful recognition and rewards.  To cultivate teamwork we are committed to improving communication by providing better tools for today’s connected society.  Our organization uses weekly employee surveys and takes actions based on the feedback from those surveys.  We believe that a culture of engaged employees provides superior service to our clients and their patients battling cancer.  We have employee retention targets that are set each year, and we believe our employee retention rate is above average for the laboratory industry.  Recruiting and retaining talented employees is critical in the fast moving field of cancer diagnostics.  

Inspire and “Own” Quality

Since the acquisition of Clarient, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc. (together “Clarient”) we’ve focused on combining the very best of both NeoGenomics and Clarient testing menus and services.  We’ve had functional teams work through every part of the business to ensure that we were able to maintain our high level of quality and create best practices

18

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

throughout our organization.  Maintaining quality laboratory operations and service is enabling us to retain existing clients while adding new ones.  

We have a variety of initiatives designed to further enhance our company-wide quality program, provide training on the importance of quality, reinforce our quality principals, and recognize individuals and teams for providing quality service.  By promoting and reinforcing quality principles, we believe we can strengthen our core processes.  Our focus on continuous improvement, first time quality and the work of our best-practice teams will enable us to continue reducing our cost per test as we have steadily over the past several years.

In 2016, we began work on our next generation Laboratory Information System, or LIS and our information technology team is working to complete this LIS system for certain key areas in 2017.  We believe the new LIS system will help to drive improvements in efficiencies in several laboratory areas and will allow for further automation and operational efficiencies.  It will also enable our Pharma Services clients the ability to track each step through the laboratory process.

We have renovated our Aliso Viejo, CA laboratory and in March of 2017, we completed the consolidation of our Irvine Lab facility into the Aliso Viejo Lab facility.  We expect to achieve significant economies of scale and operating efficiencies from this move.

Accelerate Profitable Growth

Our plans for 2017 include many initiatives to continue our strong organic growth by gaining market share, introducing new tests, and by expanding our Pharma business.  Through the acquisition of Clarient we have significantly expanded our Pharma Services business, and plan to develop it further by creating an international presence and incorporating new technologies.  Also, as a result of the Clarient acquisition, we have expanded our sales team and now offer our services in geographic areas where we did not previously have sales representation.  We believe our highly trained sales team has been successful in competing against other laboratories because of our exceptional service levels, and because we have one of the broadest and most comprehensive test menus in our industry. Our broad menu of molecular and immunohistochemistry testing has helped make us a “one stop shop” for many clients who like the fact that all of their testing can be sent to one laboratory.

We currently perform comprehensive analyses for hematopoietic cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma (blood and lymphoid tumors) as well as solid tumors such as breast, lung, colon, and bladder cancers.  Our sales team is experienced with the scientific complexity and medical necessity of our testing services, and understands the needs of our client pathologists and oncologists. We will continue to pursue market share gains by providing high complexity, cancer-related laboratory testing services to hospitals, community-based pathology practices, academic centers, and clinicians throughout the United States.  

Our growth has also been aided by strong client retention.  We believe our client retention success is due to our strong service levels, our “tech-only” service offerings, and a culture of customer focus in which our engaged employees seek to deliver highest customer satisfaction possible.   Our strong service levels are reinforced by a disciplined management process with a system of detailed measures and metrics to ensure committed turnaround times and customer service.  Our broad menu of molecular and immunohistochemistry testing has helped make us a “one stop shop” for many clients who like the fact that all of their testing can be sent to one laboratory.

In early 2017, we re-branded and created a new logo.  We intend to implement strategic marketing plans to further develop our brand and build brand awareness.  We have re-designed our trade show booth incorporating our new logo and plan to improve new test launches by using social media to improve brand awareness.   We believe by executing and developing our brand we will achieve growth in new and existing markets.

We also look for opportunities to grow our business through mergers and/or acquisitions.  We are focused on strategic opportunities that would be complementary to our menu of services and would increase our earnings and cash flow in the short to medium timeframe.  In 2015 we acquired Clarient which specialized in advanced oncology diagnostic services, this acquisition has enabled NeoGenomics to broaden its offering of innovative cancer diagnostic tests to hospitals and physicians across the country, and to accelerate its growth in the fast-growing worldwide market for pharmaceutical clinical trials and research.  Complementary product offerings and expanded geographical reach of the combined company will provide customers with substantial benefits and create a significantly larger and more diversified provider of precision oncology diagnostics.  The Clarient transaction is a good example of the type of acquisition opportunity we will consider in the future.

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Advance Our Strategy

We are committed to being an innovative leader and believe this has been and will be a key factor in our growth.  We plan to accomplish this goal through strategic actions designed to: 1) advance the technology we use in our laboratories, 2) evaluate, develop and deploy new products and services, and 3) evaluate and experiment with value-based payment models in collaboration with oncology groups and other health care providers.

Our broad and innovative testing menu allows us to serve community-based pathologists and clinicians as well as pharmaceutical customers and nationally recognized academic centers.  Over the past year, we have developed approximately 50 new molecular oncology tests and disease-specific panels, and we believe we have one of the most comprehensive oncology test menus of any laboratory in the world.  By launching new medically significant and necessary tests at a steady rate, we are able to provide cutting-edge developments in molecular genetics with clients and their patients and are developing our reputation as a leader in the field of molecular oncology.  In many cases, customers who begin using us because of our new innovative test offerings also begin to refer portions of their other testing.  

Our comprehensive test offering allows us to be a one-stop shop for all of the oncology testing needs of our clients.  Pharmaceutical firms are also attracted to our laboratory based on extensive test menu, and based on our knowledgeable research and development team as well as our ability to offer tests at the forefront of medical developments. 

We continue to pursue opportunities to offer “liquid biopsy” testing, particularly for hematological diseases.  We have launched twelve NEOLAB^TM liquid biopsy tests for hematological disease using next generation sequencing and other advanced molecular technologies.  Liquid Biopsy testing uses cell-free circulating DNA and RNA found in blood plasma to identify molecular abnormalities in the bone marrow without the need for a bone marrow biopsy.  The technology is based on the concept that hematologic cells release their DNA, RNA, and protein into circulation as the cells are immersed in blood.  The cell-free circulating DNA, RNA and protein are referred to as exosomes, microvesicles, apoptotic bodies or simply DNA- or RNA-protein complexes.  Our new tests use proprietary methods to extract these circulating nucleic acids and analyze them using next generation sequencing and advanced methods in order to evaluate molecular abnormalities present in hematological cancers.  

We also continue to develop new testing approaches by combining the capabilities of a variety of testing technologies.   Our NeoTYPE^TM multimodality testing is somewhat unique in the industry and combines immunohistochemistry testing, molecular testing, and FISH testing into disease-specific panels that are very effective and efficient for improving patient care.  We introduced a number of NeoTYPE^TM molecular panels that combine multiple molecular tests into multi-gene panels targeting specific types of cancer to help pathologists and oncologists determine cancer subtypes on difficult cases.  Managed care payers have expressed interest in the more targeted panels as a more cost effective alternative to ordering large whole genome panels that include genes that have never been tied to a particular type of cancer.

We continue to develop our NeoLAB (Liquid Biopsy) Prostate cancer test that is performed on blood plasma and urine rather than on prostate tissue biopsies.  There are two goals for this test: 1) to diagnose the presence of cancer in patients and 2) to distinguish high-grade from low-grade cancer in patients with prostate cancer.  

Competitive Strengths

Turnaround Times

We strive to provide industry leading turnaround times for test results to our clients nationwide.  By providing information to our clients in a rapid manner, physicians can begin treating their patients as soon as possible.  We believe our average 4-5 day turnaround time for our cytogenetics testing services, our average 3-4 day turnaround time for FISH testing services, our 5-7 day turnaround time for molecular testing and our average 1 day turnaround time for flow cytometry and pathology testing services are industry-leading benchmarks for national laboratories.  Our consistent timeliness of results is a competitive strength and a driver of additional testing requests by our referring physicians.  Rapid turnaround times allow for the performance of other adjunctive tests within an acceptable diagnosis window in order to augment or confirm results and more fully inform treatment options.  We believe that our fast turnaround times are a key differentiator versus other national laboratories, and our clients often cite them as a key factor in their relationship with us.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

World-class Medical and Scientific Team

Our team of medical professionals and Ph.Ds. are specialists in the field of genetics, oncology and pathology.  As of March 31, 2017, we employed, or are contracted with, approximately 35 full-time M.D.s and Ph.Ds.  The addition of Clarient’s pathology team has added increased depth to our medical team, and has enhanced our ability to service a wider range of specialties.  

Extensive Tech-Only Service Offerings

We currently have the most extensive menu of “tech-only” FISH services in the country as well as extensive and advanced “tech-only” flow cytometry and IHC testing services.  These types of testing services allow the professional interpretation component of a test to be performed and billed separately by our physician clients.  Our FISH, flow cytometry and other tech-only service offerings allow properly trained and credentialed community-based pathologists to extend their own practices by performing professional interpretations services, which allows them to better service the needs of their local clientele without the need to invest in the lab equipment and personnel required to perform the technical component of genetic and molecular testing.

Our tech-only services are designed to give pathologists the option to choose, on a case by case basis, whether they want to order just the technical information and images relating to a specific test so they can perform the professional interpretation, or order “global” services and receive a comprehensive test report which includes a NeoGenomics Pathologist’s interpretation of the test results.  Our clients appreciate the flexibility to access NeoGenomics’ medical staff for difficult or complex cases or when they are otherwise unavailable to perform professional interpretations.  We believe this innovative approach to serving the needs of pathology clients’ results in longer term, more committed client relationships that are, in effect, strategic partnerships. Our extensive “tech-only” service offerings have differentiated us and allowed us to compete more effectively against larger, more entrenched competitors in our niche of the industry.

Global Service Offerings

We offer a comprehensive suite of technical and interpretation services, to meet the needs of those clients who are not credentialed and trained in interpreting genetic tests and who require pathology specialists to interpret the testing results for them. In our global service offerings, our lab performs the technical component of the tests and our M.D.s and Ph.Ds. provide the service of interpreting the results of those tests. Our professional staff is also available for post-test consultative services. Clients using our global service offering rely on the expertise of our medical team to give them the answers they need in a timely manner to help inform their diagnoses and treatment decisions. Many of our tech-only clients also rely on our medical team for difficult or challenging cases by ordering our global testing services on a case-by-case basis or our medical team can serve as a backup to support our clients who need help to satisfy the continued and demanding requirements of their practice. Our reporting capabilities allow for all relevant case data from our global services to be captured in one summary report. When providing global services, NeoGenomics bills for both the technical and professional component of the test, which results in a higher reimbursement level.

Client Education Programs

We believe we have one of the most extensive client education programs in the genetic and molecular testing industry. We train pathologists how to use and interpret genetic testing services so that they can better interpret technical data and render their diagnosis.

Our educational programs include an extensive library of on-demand training modules, online courses, and custom tailored on-site training programs that are designed to prepare clients to utilize our tech-only services. We offer training and information on new cancer tests and the latest developments in the field of molecular genetic testing. Each year, we also regularly sponsor seminars and webinars on emerging topics of interest in our field. Our medical staff is involved in many aspects of our training programs.

Superior Testing Technologies and Instrumentation

We use some of the most advanced testing technologies and instrumentation in the laboratory industry. The use of next generation sequencing in our molecular testing allows us to detect multiple mutations and our proprietary techniques allow us to achieve high sensitivity in our next generation sequencing testing.  In addition, we use high sensitivity Sanger sequencing, RNA and DNA quantification, SNP/Cytogenetic arrays, Fragment Length analysis, and other molecular testing technologies.  Our automated FISH and Cytogenetics tools allow us to deliver the highest quality testing to our clients and our flow cytometry laboratory uses 10-color flow cytometry analysis technology on a technical-only basis. We are one of only a few laboratories with an electron microscopy

department for diagnosis in complex renal case analysis.  NeoGenomics is continually testing new laboratory equipment in order to remain at the forefront of new developments in the testing field.

Laboratory Information System

We believe we have a state-of-the-art LIS that interconnects our locations and provides flexible reporting solutions to clients.  This system allows us to standardize testing and deliver uniform test results and images throughout our network, regardless of the location that any specific portion of a test is performed within our network.  This allows us to move specimens and image analysis work between locations to better balance our workload.  Our LIS also allows us to offer highly specialized and customizable reporting solutions to our tech-only clients.  For instance, our “tech-only” FISH and flow cytometry applications allow our community-based pathologist clients to tailor individual reports to their specifications and incorporate only the images they select and then issue and sign-out such reports using our system.  Our customized reporting solution also allows our clients to incorporate test results performed on ancillary tests not performed at NeoGenomics into summary report templates.  This FlexREPORT feature has been well-received by clients.

National Direct Sales Force

Our direct sales force has been trained extensively in cancer genetic testing and consultative selling skills to service the needs of clients.  Our sales team for the clinical cancer testing services is organized into five regions (Northeast, Southeast, North Central, South Central and West), and we have a separate sales team for our Pharma Services division.  These sales representatives utilize our custom Customer Relationship Management System (“CRM”) to manage their territories, and we have integrated all of the important customer care functionality within our LIS into the CRM so that our sales representatives can stay informed of emerging issues and opportunities within their regions.  Our in-house customer care team is aligned with our field sales team to serve the needs of our clients by utilizing the same LIS and CRM.  Our field teams can see in real-time when a client calls the laboratory, the reason for the call, the resolution, and if face-to-face interaction is needed for follow-up.

Geographic Locations

Many high complexity laboratories within the cancer testing niche have frequently operated a core facility on either the West Coast or the East Coast of the United States to service the needs of their customers around the country. We believe our clients and prospects desire to do business with a laboratory with national breadth and a local presence. We have seven facilities including four large laboratory locations in Fort Myers, Florida, West Sacramento, California, Aliso Viejo, California and Houston Texas.  We also have three smaller laboratory locations in Fresno, California, Nashville, Tennessee and Tampa, Florida. Our objective is to “operate one lab with multiple locations” in order to deliver standardized, high quality, test results. We have recently completed renovations in our Aliso Viejo facility and have successfully transitioned all Irvine employees and tests into the much larger Aliso Viejo laboratory during late March 2017.  We have begun work with authorities in Switzerland regarding our planned opening of a laboratory near Geneva during the second half of 2017.  This laboratory will support our Pharma Services division and will enable us to compete for clinical trials business in Europe as well as for studies that have components in both the United States and in Europe.  We intend to continue to develop and open new laboratories and/or expand our current facilities as market situations dictate and business opportunities arise.

Scientific Pipeline

In the past few years our field has experienced a rapid increase in tests that are tied to specific “genomic pathways”. These predictive tests are typically individualized for a small sub-set of patients with a specific subtype of cancer. The therapeutic target in the genomic pathway is typically a small molecule found at the level of the cell surface, within the cytoplasm and/or within the nucleus. These genomic pathways, known as the “Hallmarks of Cancer”, contain a target-rich environment for small-molecule “anti-therapies”. These anti-therapies target specific mutations in the major cancer pathways such as the Proliferation Pathway, the Apoptotic Pathway, the Angiogenic Pathway, the Metastasis Pathway, and the Signaling Pathways and Anti-Signaling Pathways.

Seasonality

The majority of our testing volume is dependent on patients being treated by hematology/oncology professionals and other healthcare providers. The volume of our testing services generally declines modestly during the summer vacation season, year-end holiday periods and other major holidays, particularly when those holidays fall during the middle of the week. In addition, the volume of our

22

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

testing tends to decline due to extreme adverse weather conditions, such as excessively hot or cold spells, heavy snow, hurricanes or tornados in certain regions, consequently reducing revenues and cash flows in any affected period. Therefore, comparison of the results of successive periods may not accurately reflect trends for future periods.

Please see the section captioned Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016; as filed with the SEC on March 14, 2017 for a detailed description of our business.

Total Revenue	$	61,676	$	59,704	$	1,972			3	%

Revenue

Testing volumes were up 15.3% in our clinical genetic testing business, and reflect strong demand for the PD-L1 test as well as continued growth in our Molecular testing business.  Clinical testing revenue increased by 4% for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016.  We continue to gain new clients and have experienced increased testing volumes as a result of the high demand for immuno-histochemistry and immunotherapy tests such as the PD-L1 test.  Our average unit price (“AUP”) declined by 9.4% year-over-year due to rapid growth in PD-L1 test volume as the AUP for PD-L1 is substantially lower than that of many of our other tests.  AUP was also impacted by the 2017 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule cut of 19% in the CPT codes used for Flow Cytometry testing which was effective January 1, 2017.

Pharma Services revenue was essentially the same for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016.  Our backlog of signed contracts is growing substantially which we expect to result in higher revenues in future quarters.  We expect to see further growth in our Pharma Services division as we expand internationally by opening a laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland in the second half of 2017.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table shows clinical genetic testing revenue, cost of revenue, requisitions received and tests performed for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.  This data excludes tests performed for Pharma customers and tests performed by PathLogic (testing revenue and cost of revenue in thousands):

	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017		2016		% Change
Requisitions received (cases)		94,528		88,824		6.4	%
Number of tests performed		155,567		134,904		15.3	%
Average number of tests per requisition		1.65		1.52		8.6	%
Total clinical genetic testing revenue	$	55,112	$	52,751		4.5	%

Average revenue per test	$	354	$	391		(9.4	%)
Total cost of revenue	$	28,915	$	27,769		4.1	%
Average cost per requisition	$	306	$	313		(2.2	%)
Average cost per test	$	186	$	206		(9.7	%)

We believe that the increase in clinical testing revenues are the direct result of our efforts to innovate by developing one of the most comprehensive cancer testing menus in the industry.  This broad test menu allows for existing clients to order more testing and also has also attracted many new clients and has helped us to gain market share from competitors.  New immuno-therapy tests such as PD1 and PD-L1 have shown solid growth and continue to establish us at the leading edge as new tests and assays come onto the market.  We believe the field of immuno-therapy will have substantial growth in the coming years as there are numerous clinical trials and tests in development.

The decrease in our average revenue per test of 9.4% is primarily due to the change in test mix, specifically the increase in PD-L1 which has a lower AUP.  The 19% Medicare cut in Flow Cytometry reimbursement as a result of the 2017 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule also contributed to the lower revenue per test.  

These decreases to our AUP were offset by our higher volumes and reductions in cost per test of 9.7%.  The cost per test reductions were also a result of the change in test mix, specifically the higher mix of lower cost histology tests.  In addition, we continue to have success in driving down costs in the laboratory.  In the first quarter of 2017, our productivity per medical technologist set a company record and we have been able to drive down costs even during our integration activities.

During the first quarter of 2017, we completed the consolidation of our two largest testing facilities in southern California.  This impacted our cost per test as we incurred increased overtime expense as well as other inefficiencies such as having to re-validate tests and equipment in the new location.  We expect to begin to realize cost synergies and further reduce our cost of testing in the coming quarters as the integration activities have now been completed.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit

Cost of revenue includes payroll and payroll related costs for performing tests, maintenance and depreciation of laboratory equipment, rent for laboratory facilities, laboratory reagents, probes and supplies, and delivery and courier costs relating to the transportation of specimens to be tested.

The consolidated cost of revenue and gross profit metrics are as follows ($ in thousands):

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated cost of revenue increased slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2017 when compared to the same periods in 2016.  Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue also increased slightly year-over-year.  These increases are largely due to the 15.3% increase in our testing volumes and additional costs incurred with the consolidation of our two largest testing facilities in southern California, specifically increased overtime and associated costs.  

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist of employee related costs (such as salaries, fringe benefits, and stock based compensation expense) for our billing, finance, human resources, information technology and other administrative personnel. We also allocate professional services, facilities expense, IT infrastructure costs, bad debt expense, depreciation, amortization and other administrative-related costs to general and administrative expenses.

Consolidated general and administrative expenses for the periods presented are as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
($ in thousands)	2017			2016			$ Change
General and administrative	$	20,801		$	18,005		$	2,796
As a % of revenue		33.7	%		30.2	%

The increase in our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was largely due to increased expenses in the following areas:  payroll, depreciation, stock based compensation and bad debt.  

Bad debt expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased by approximately $1.1 million when compared to the same period in 2016.  Bad debt as a percentage of revenue was 6.1%, which was higher than last year’s rate of 4.5%.  This increase as a percentage of revenue is primarily related to the integration of Clarient, which historically had higher bad debt rates than did NeoGenomics’ legacy business.  The Clarient business has been fully transitioned over to NeoGenomics billing system and we anticipate that bad debt will move lower in the second half of 2017.  

We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase as we add personnel and equity related compensation expenses, increase our billing and collections activities; incur additional expenses associated with the expansion of our facilities and backup systems; incur additional bad debt expense as sales increase and as we continue to expand our physical infrastructure to support our anticipated growth.  A significant portion of our stock based compensation is for non-employee options which are subject to variable accounting, and our expenses will fluctuate based on the performance of our common stock.  A rise in the price of our stock will increase our stock compensation expense, and a decline in our stock price will reduce this expense.  However, we anticipate that general and administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated revenue will drop over the coming years as we continue to grow.  

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses relate to cost of developing new proprietary and non-proprietary genetic tests, including payroll and payroll related costs, maintenance and depreciation of laboratory equipment, laboratory supplies (reagents), and outside consultants and experts assisting our R&D team.    

Consolidated research and development expenses for the periods presented are as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
($ in thousands)	2017			2016			$ Change
Research and development	$	862		$	1,446		$	(584	)
As a % of revenue		1.4	%		2.4	%

Excluding stock based compensation expense of approximately $43,000 in the first quarter of 2017 and a stock based compensation gain of approximately $93,000 in the first quarter of 2016, research and development expense was approximately $819,000 and $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The changes in stock based compensation expense reflects the changes in the price of our common stock and the fact that the related options and warrants for a non-employee contractor are accounted for at fair value each reporting period.  Excluding stock based compensation, R&D expense decreased year-over-year due to a decrease in amortization expense.  The intangible assets that were being amortized were associated with Health Discovery

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Corporation, and were impaired in 2016.  We are no longer developing technology that was previously licensed with the Health Discovery Corporation.  

We expect our research and development expenses to fluctuate in future quarters because of increases or decreases in our stock price and the corresponding stock based compensation expense for non-employee stock options. Increases in our stock price result in additional expense and decreases in our stock price can result in recovery of previously recorded expense.  We anticipate research and development expenditures will increase over time as we continue to invest in innovation and bringing new tests to market.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses are primarily attributable to employee related costs including sales management, sales representatives, sales and marketing consultants and marketing and customer service personnel.

Consolidated sales and marketing expenses for the periods presented are as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
($ in thousands)	2017			2016			$ Change
Sales and marketing	$	5,648		$	5,800		$	(152	)
As a % of revenue		9.2	%		9.7	%

Sales and marketing expenses decreased slightly year-over-year mostly due to a decrease in commissions.  Commissions were lower in the first quarter of 2017 as our sales team spent a significant amount of time working with existing clients and helping to transition existing clients to the combined test menu and ordering systems, which resulted in reduced time generating new business.  Now that these integration activities are complete, the sales team will return their focus to generating new business, which we expect will lead to higher commissions expense in the coming quarters.  We expect our sales and marketing expenses over the long term to increase as our test volumes increase, but to remain stable as a percentage of our overall sales.  

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net is comprised of interest incurred on our term debt, revolving credit facility and our capital lease obligations offset by the interest income we earn on cash deposits.  Interest expense, net decreased slightly by $229,000 for the period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.  This decrease reflects the new Loan Agreement that the Company entered into in December of 2016, which significantly lowered our borrowing rates.  Even though our total borrowings were higher, our interest expense was less during the first quarter of 2017.  We have entered into a swap agreement to hedge a significant portion of the interest on our term loan, however part of that loan is not hedged and will continue to fluctuate as the LIBOR rates change.  

Net Income

The following table provides consolidated net loss available to common stockholders for each period along with the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2017:

Non-GAAP Measures

Use of non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company’s financial results are provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures.  Management believes that presentation of operating results using non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company’s operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods and between entities. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making, planning and forecasting purposes and to manage the Company’s business. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric for our business because it is used by our lenders in the calculation of our debt covenants.  Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to evaluate our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management.  The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to and not as a substitute for the Company’s financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.  There are limitations inherent in non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude charges and credits that are required to be included in a GAAP presentation, and do not therefore present the full measure of the Company’s recorded costs against its net revenue.  In addition, the Company’s definition of the non-GAAP financial measures below may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.  

Definitions of non-GAAP measures

Non – GAAP EBITDA

We define “EBITDA” as net income from continuing operations before: (i) interest expense, (ii) tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization expense.

Non – GAAP Adjusted EBITDA

We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as net income from continuing operations before: (i) interest expense, (ii) tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iv) non-cash, stock-based compensation expense, and if applicable in a reporting period (v) acquisition related transaction expenses and other significant non-recurring or non-operating (income) or expenses.

Basis for Non-GAAP Adjustments

Our basis for excluding certain expenses from GAAP financial measures, are outlined below:

• Interest expense – The capital structure of companies significantly affects the amount of interest expense incurred.  This expense can vary significantly between periods and between companies.  In order to compare performance between periods and companies that have different capital structures and thus different levels of interest obligations, NeoGenomics excludes this expense.

• Income tax expense (benefit) –The tax positions of companies can vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and the provision for income taxes can vary considerably among companies.  In order to compare performance between companies, NeoGenomics excludes this expense (benefit).

• Depreciation expense – Companies utilize assets with different useful lives and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating these assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies. In order to compare performance between companies, NeoGenomics excludes this expense.

• Amortization expense – The intangible assets that give rise to this amortization expense relate to acquisitions, and the amounts allocated to such intangible assets and the terms of amortization vary by acquisition and type of asset.  NeoGenomics excludes these items to provide a consistent basis for comparing operating results across reporting periods, pre and post-acquisition.  

27

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

• Stock-based compensation expenses – Although stock-based compensation is an important aspect of the compensation paid to NeoGenomics employees and consultants, the related expense is substantially driven by changes in the Company’s stock price in any given quarter, which can fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and result in large positive or negative impacts to total operating expenses.  The variable accounting treatment causing expense to be driven by changes in quarterly stock price is required because many of the Company’s full-time physicians reside in California and are classified as consultants rather than employees due to state regulations.  GAAP provides that variable stock based compensation treatment be applied for consultants but not for employees. Without adjusting for these non-cash expenses, the Company believes it would be difficult to compare financial results from operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis.  

• Moving expenses – These expenses include costs associated with the move of our Irvine, California facility into our Aliso Viejo facility.  Irvine was the former NeoGenomics laboratory in Southern California and was eight miles from Clarient’s much large facility in Aliso Viejo.  After investing in updating and redesigning the Aliso Viejo facility we combined the two facilities in March of 2017.  Equipment had to be moved, and re-validated in the new location.  There was also significant overtime and investment of resources to coordinate the move project.  We are adjusting for these costs in Adjusted EBITDA as the move was the direct result of the Clarient acquisition and will not be an annually recurring item.  Without adjusting for these expenses, the Company believes it would be difficult to compare financial results from operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis.  

We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide more consistent measures of operating performance between entities and across reporting periods by excluding cash and non-cash items of expense that can vary significantly between companies.  In addition, adjusted EBITDA is a metric that is used by our lenders in the calculation of our debt covenants.  Adjusted EBITDA also assists investors in performing analyses that are consistent with financial models developed by independent research analysts.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined by us) are not measurements under GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.  We believe there are limitations inherent in non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because they exclude a variety of charges and credits that are required to be included in a GAAP presentation, and do not therefore present the full measure of NeoGenomics recorded costs against its net revenue.  Accordingly, we encourage investors to consider both non-GAAP results together with GAAP results in analyzing our financial performance.

The following is a reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) to Non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2017:

Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are reported, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is estimated based on the aging of accounts receivable with each payer category and the historical data on bad debts in these aging categories.  In addition, the allowance is adjusted periodically for other relevant factors, including regularly assessing the state of our billing operations in order to identify issues which may impact the collectability of receivables or allowance estimates.  Revisions to the allowance are recorded as an adjustment to bad debt expense within general and administrative expenses.  After appropriate collection efforts have been exhausted, specific receivables deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance in the period they are deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of receivables previously written-off are recorded as credits to the allowance.

The following tables present the Company’s gross outstanding accounts receivable ($ in thousands) by payer group at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

The allowance for doubtful accounts as well as the allowance as a percentage of gross accounts receivable has remained relatively consistent for the period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the period ended December 31, 2016.  We have seen an increase in our client bill accounts receivable balances, and we believe this was due to the integration and should correct in future quarters.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash generated thorough operations, public and private sales of equity securities, borrowings against our accounts receivables balances and private debt.

The following table presents a summary of our consolidated cash flows for operating, investing and financing activities (in thousands) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 as well as the period ended cash and cash equivalents and working capital.

Operating activities	$	(1,686	)	$	7,059

Working Capital (1), end of period	$	44,705		$	46,887

(1) Defined as current assets minus current liabilities.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 cash flows from operating activities changed by approximately $8.7 million as compared to the same period in 2016.  The change was primarily due to a higher balance in accounts receivable as of March 31, 2017, as compared to 2016.  Days sales outstanding were also higher as billing had a backlog of unbilled claims, this backlog was substantially reduced late in the first quarter, however, it did not result in paid claims as of March 31, 2017.  This increase in the backlog of unbilled claims that led to the increase in DSOs was primarily the result of the integration of Clarient’s billing operations into our billing system in the fourth quarter of 2016.  This backlog returned to a normal level subsequent to the end of Q1 2017.  The change in cash flows from operations is also due to our net loss for the period ending March 31, 2017 compared to our net income for the period ended March 31, 2016.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, cash flows from investing activities increased by approximately $2.0 million compared with the same period in 2016.  This increase was due to equipment purchases and building improvements, which were necessary to support our continued growth and efficiency.  Specifically, we have remodeled and upgraded our laboratory facility in Aliso Viejo, California and invested significantly in additional laboratory equipment to handle our growth, as well as updated the existing equipment that was acquired with the purchase of Clarient in 2015.  As we expand our Houston laboratory in 2017, as well as add a laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland we expect to continue to make investments in these areas.    

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, cash flows from financing activities changed by approximately $13.4 million.  This change was due to a combination of the advances made on our revolving credit facility during the first quarter of 2017 of $5.0 million and the $10 million repayment made on our revolving credit facility in the first quarter of 2016 which was originally used to finance the acquisition of Clarient.  

Cash provided by financing activities was also comprised of quarterly repayments on our Term Loan and our capital lease obligations.  These repayments were partially offset by cash received for the issuance of our common stock for the exercise of stock options and Employee Stock Purchase Plan shares.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Credit Facility

During December of 2016, we entered into a new senior secured credit facility in order to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on this floating rate debt obligation, we also entered into an interest rate swap agreement.  For more information on this hedging instrument, see Note E to Consolidated Financial Statements herein.  The interest rate swap agreement effectively converts a portion of our floating rate debt to a fixed obligation, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense.  We believe this strategy will enhance our ability to manage cash flow within our Company.

Liquidity Outlook

We had approximately $11.0 million in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2017.  In addition, we have a revolving credit facility which provides for up to $75 million in borrowing capacity of which at March 31, 2017, based on our level of adjusted EBITDA, approximately $19 million was available.  We believe that the cash on hand, available credit lines and cash flows generated from operations will provide adequate resources to meet our operating commitments and interest payments for at least the next 12 months.  Our Series A Preferred Stock has certain restrictions that will result in the Company having to dedicate fifty percent of the net proceeds from any future equity raise, to redeeming shares of the Series A Preferred Stock until such time as all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been redeemed. 

Capital Expenditures

We currently forecast capital expenditures in order to execute on our business plan and keep up with the growth in our testing volumes, although the actual amount and timing of such capital expenditures will ultimately be determined by the volume of our business.  We currently anticipate that our capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2017 will be in the range of $15.0 million to $17.0 million.  During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we purchased approximately $3.0 million of capital equipment, software and leasehold improvements of which $1.9 million was acquired through capital lease obligations.  We have in the past funded and plan to continue funding these capital expenditures with capital lease financing arrangements, cash, and through bank loan facilities if necessary.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions and select accounting policies that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

While many operational aspects of our business are subject to complex federal, state and local regulations, the accounting for our business is generally straightforward with net revenues primarily recognized upon completion of the testing process. Our revenues are primarily comprised of laboratory tests, and approximately one-half of total operating costs and expenses consist of employee compensation and benefits. Due to the nature of our business, several of our accounting policies involve significant estimates and judgments. These accounting policies have been described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Related Party Transactions

Consulting Agreements

During each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, Steven C. Jones was an officer, director and shareholder of the Company.  Mr. Jones earned approximately $66,000 for consulting work performed in connection with his duties as Executive Vice President during each of the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.  Mr. Jones also received approximately $85,000 and $79,000 during each of the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 as payment of his annual bonus compensation for the previous fiscal years.  In addition, as compensation for his services on the Board, Mr. Jones earned $12,500 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not use special purpose entities or other off-balance sheet financing techniques that we believe have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and other relevant market rate or price changes. The Company is exposed to market risk associated with changes in the LIBOR interest rate.  The Company regularly evaluates its exposure to such changes and may elect to minimize this risk through the use of interest rate swap agreements.  For further details regarding our significant accounting policies relating to derivative instruments and hedging activities, see Note B to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.  We do not have any material foreign operations or foreign sales and thus have no exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal  financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

As required by SEC Rule 15d-15, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Note A – Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

NeoGenomics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Parent”), and its subsidiaries, NeoGenomics Laboratories, Inc., a Florida corporation (“NEO” or, “NeoGenomics Laboratories”), NeoGenomics Bioinformatics Inc., a Florida corporation, Path Labs LLC., a Delaware limited liability company (“PathLogic”) and Clarient Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc. (together, “Clarient”), (collectively referred to as “we”, “us”, “our”, “NeoGenomics”, or the “Company”), operates as a certified “high complexity” clinical laboratory in accordance with the federal government’s Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act, as amended (“CLIA”), and is dedicated to the delivery of clinical diagnostic services to pathologists, oncologists, urologists, hospitals, and other laboratories throughout the United States.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. These accompanying interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Parent and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been condensed or omitted in these accompanying interim consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2017.  

The results of operations presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any future periods. In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of all interim periods reported herein.

We have one reportable operating segment that delivers testing services to hospitals, pathologists, oncologists, other clinicians, and researchers, which represents 100% of the Company’s consolidated assets, net revenues and net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.  We have evaluated our segments based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), our Chief Executive Officer, reviews performance and makes decisions in managing the Company.  At March 31, 2017, all of our services were provided within the United States and all of our assets were located in the United States.

We have two primary types of customers, clinical and pharma.  Our clinical customers include community based pathology practices, oncology groups, hospitals and academic centers.  Our pharma customers include pharmaceutical companies to whom we provide testing and other services to support their studies and clinical trials.  We continue to assess the information available to the CODM since the close of the Clarient acquisition.  Currently, discrete financial information is not available to the CODM about the separate financial performance of our clinical and our pharma customers.  As we continue to integrate the two companies and focus separately on the two customer types we will routinely assess the information available and reviewed by the CODM and determine if we meet the criteria for having separate segments.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Guidance

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2017

Accounting Changes And Error Corrections [Abstract]

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Guidance

Note B — Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU “) No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The standard update requires excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to be recorded directly through earnings as a component of income tax expense. Under current GAAP, these differences are generally recorded in additional paid-in capital and thus have no impact on net income. The change will also impact the computation of diluted earnings per share, and the cash flows associated with those items will be classified as operating activities on the condensed statements of consolidated cash flows. Entities will be permitted to make an accounting policy election for the impact of forfeitures on the recognition of expense for share-based payment awards. Forfeitures can be estimated, as required under current GAAP, or recognized when they occur.  

The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017 using the transition method prescribed for each applicable provision:

• Based on the implementation guidance, previously unrecognized excess tax benefits should be recognized on a modified retrospective basis beginning in the period the guidance is adopted.  Accordingly, the Company recorded an increase in deferred tax assets and an offsetting cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings of $6.6 million as of January 1, 2017 for excess tax benefits not previously recognized.  

• Based on the implementation guidance, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to share based compensation will be reported in net income (loss) on a prospective basis.  

• The Company has elected to retrospectively adopt the requirement to present cash flows related to excess tax benefits as cash flows from operating activities.  This adoption had no effect on cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

• The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures in compensation cost as they occur.

Issued

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations.  This standard clarifies the definition of a business and provides guidance on when transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets and when they should be accounted for as acquisitions of businesses.  This update is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption is permitted.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017 the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other:  Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.  This standard eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021.  Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.  

In August 2016, the FASB issued “ASU” 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.  This standard clarifies how specific cash receipts and cash payments are classified and presented in the statement of cash flows. This update is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption is permitted.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-15 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.  

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The updaterequires organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those periods.  The adoption of this ASU will result in an increase on the balance sheet for lease liabilities and right to use assets.  The Company is currently evaluating the quantitative impact that adopting ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenues from Contracts with Customers. This standard update calls for a number of revisions in the revenue recognition rules. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of this ASU to the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted beginning in the first quarter of 2017.  The ASU can be applied using a full retrospective method or a modified retrospective method of adoption.  The Company expects to adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2018 using a full retrospective method of adoption.  We anticipate enhanced financial statement disclosures surrounding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows.  While we continue to assess the impact of the adoption of this standard, we do not expect that it will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The carrying value of the Company’s long-term capital lease obligations and term debt approximates its fair value based on the current market conditions for similar instruments. 

Term Loan

On December 22, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Regions Bank as administrative agent and collateral agent.  The Credit Agreement provided for a $75.0 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”).  The Credit Agreement also provides incremental facility capacity of $50 million, subject to certain conditions.  On March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had current outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan of approximately $3.8 million and long-term outstanding borrowings of approximately $69.3 and $70.1 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.0 and $1.1 million, respectively.  The debt issuance costs were recorded as a reduction in the carrying amount of the related liability and are being amortized over the life of the loan.

The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at NeoGenomics Laboratories’ option, either (1) the Adjusted LIBOR rate for the relevant interest period, (2) an alternate base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (a) the prime lending rate of Regions, (b) the federal funds rate for the relevant interest period plus 0.5% per annum and (c) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1% per annum, or (3) a combination of (1) and (2). The applicable margin will range from 2.25% to 3.50% for LIBOR loans and 1.25% to 2.50% for base rate loans, in each case based on NeoGenomics Laboratories’ consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Interest on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is payable on the last day of each month, in the case of each base rate loan, and on the last day of each interest period (but no less frequently than every three months), in the case of Adjusted LIBOR loans.  The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge against changes in the variable rate of a portion of this debt.  See Note E-Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for more information on this instrument.

The Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured on a first priority basis by a security interest in substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of NeoGenomics Laboratories and the Guarantors.  The Term Loan Facility contains various affirmative and negative covenants including ability to incur liens and encumbrances; make certain restricted payments, including paying dividends on its equity securities or payments to redeem, repurchase or retire its equity securities; enter into certain restrictive agreements; make investments, loans and acquisitions; merge or consolidate with any other person; dispose of assets; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; engage in transactions with its affiliates, and materially alter the business it conducts.  In addition, the Company must meet certain maximum leverage ratios and fixed charge coverage ratios as of the end of each fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2017.  The Company was in compliance with all required covenants as of March 31, 2017.

The Term Loan Facility has a maturity date of December 21, 2021.  The Credit Agreement requires NeoGenomics Laboratories to mandatorily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility with (i) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain sales and dispositions, subject to certain reinvestment rights, (ii) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain issuances or incurrences of additional debt, (iii) beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017, 50% of excess cash flow (as defined), subject to a step down to 0% of excess cash flow if NeoGenomics Laboratories’ consolidated leverage ratio is no greater than 2.75:1.0 and (iv) 100% of net cash proceeds from issuances of permitted equity securities by NeoGenomics Laboratories made in order to cure a failure to comply with the financial covenants. NeoGenomics Laboratories is permitted to voluntarily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time without penalty.

Auto Loans

The Company has auto loans with various financial institutions.  The auto loan terms range from 36-60 months and carry interest rates from 0.0% to 5.2%.

Capital Leases

The Company has entered into capital leases to purchase laboratory and office equipment.  These leases expire at various dates through 2020 and the weighted average interest rate under such leases was approximately 5.64% at March 31, 2017. Most of these leases contain bargain purchase options that allow us to purchase the leased property for a minimal amount upon the expiration of the lease term. The remaining leases have purchase options at fair market value.      

Property and equipment acquired under capital lease agreements are pledged as collateral to secure the performance of the future minimum lease payments.

Revolving Credit Facility

On December 22, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Regions Bank as administrative agent and collateral agent.  The Credit Agreement provided for a $75.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”).  On March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had outstanding borrowings of approximately $26.9 and $21.8 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.0 and $1.1 million, respectively.

The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $10 million swingline sublimit, with swingline loans bearing interest at the alternate base rate plus the applicable margin. Any principal outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility is due and payable on December 21, 2021 or such earlier date as the obligations under the Credit Agreement become due and payable pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement.  The Revolving Facility bears interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at NeoGenomics Laboratories’ option, either (1) the Adjusted LIBOR rate for the relevant interest period, (2) an alternate base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (a) the prime lending rate of Regions, (b) the federal funds rate for the relevant interest period plus 0.5% per annum and (c) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1% per annum, or (3) a combination of (1) and (2). The applicable margin will range from 2.25% to 3.50% for Adjusted LIBOR loans and 1.25% to 2.50% for base rate loans, in each case based on NeoGenomics Laboratories’ consolidated leverage ratio. Interest on the outstanding principal of the Term Loan Facility will be payable on the last day of each month, in the case of each base rate loan, and on the last day of each interest period (but no less frequently than every three months), in the case of LIBOR loans.

The Credit Agreement requires NeoGenomics Laboratories to mandatorily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility with (i) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain sales and dispositions, subject to certain reinvestment rights, (ii) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain issuances or incurrences of additional debt, (iii) beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017, 50% of excess cash flow (minus certain specified other payments), subject to a step down to 0% of excess cash flow if NeoGenomics Laboratories’ consolidated leverage ratio is no greater than 2.75:1.0 and (iv) 100% of net cash proceeds from issuances of permitted equity securities by NeoGenomics Laboratories made in order to cure a failure to comply with the financial covenants. NeoGenomics Laboratories is permitted to voluntarily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time without penalty, subject to customary “breakage” costs with respect to prepayments of Adjusted LIBOR rate loans made on a day other than the last day of any applicable interest period.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Note E – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Cash Flow Hedges

In December of 2016, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on our variable rate debt obligations.  This derivative financial instrument is accounted for at fair value as a cash flow hedge which effectively modifies our exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of our floating rate debt to a fixed rate obligation, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense.

We account for derivatives in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, see Note B-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information on our accounting policy related to derivative instruments and hedging activities.  

Under this agreement, we receive a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR, and we pay a fixed rate of interest at 1.59%.  The interest rate swap agreement was effective as of December 30, 2016 and a termination date of December 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the total notional amount of the Company’s interest rate swaps were $50 million.

The fair value of the interest rate swap will be included in other long term assets or liabilities, when applicable.  As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the interest rate swap was not considered to be significant due to the change in LIBOR over that time period outstanding, therefore, no amount is included on the balance sheet for this instrument.  As the specific terms and notional amounts of the derivative financial instrument match those of the fixed-rate debt being hedged, the derivative instruments are assumed to be perfectly effective hedges and accordingly, there is no impact to the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Gains and losses on this interest rate swap agreement will be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be reclassified to interest expense in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.  At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there was no impact to accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) as it was determined that there was not a significant change to record.  The fair value of this instrument will be evaluated on a quarterly basis and adjusted as necessary.

Class A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

Mar. 31, 2017

Temporary Equity Disclosure [Abstract]

Class A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

Note F — Class A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

On December 30, 2015, NeoGenomics issued 14,666,667 shares of its Series A Preferred stock as part of the consideration for the acquisition of Clarient.  The Series A Preferred Stock has a face value of $7.50 per share for a total liquidation value of $110 million.  During the first year, the Series A Preferred Stock had a liquidation value of $100 million if the shares were redeemed prior to December 29, 2016.  On December 22, 2016, the Company redeemed 8,066,667 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for $55.0 million in cash.  The redemption amount per share equaled $6.8181825 ($7.50 minus the liquidation discount of 9.0909%).  At March 31, 2017, 6,600,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were outstanding.  

The carrying amount of the Series A Preferred Stock at March 31, 2017 was $25,439 million as compared to the carrying amount at December 31, 2016 of $22,873 million.  The increase in the carrying amount is from the accrual of deemed dividends of approximately $894,000 and the accretion of the beneficial conversion feature of approximately $1.7 million during the three months ending March 31, 2017, of which both amounts are recorded as distributions to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock on the income statement with the corresponding entry recorded as an increase to the carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Issue Discount

The Company recorded the Series A Preferred Stock at a fair value of approximately $73.2 million or $4.99 per share on the date of issuance.  The difference between the fair value of $73.2 million and the liquidation value of $110 million represents a discount of $36.8 million from the initial face value as a result of assessing the impact the rights and features of the instrument and their effect on the value to the Company.  After redemption, the Series A Preferred stock has a fair value of approximately $32,940 or $4.99 per share.  The difference between the fair value of $32,940 and the liquidation value of $49,500 represents a discount of $16,560.  

Beneficial Conversion Features

The fair value of the common stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible exceeded the allocated purchase price fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock at the date of issuance and after redemption by approximately $44.7 and $20.1 million, respectively, resulting in a beneficial conversion feature.  The Company will recognize the beneficial conversion feature as non-cash, deemed dividend to the holder of Series A Preferred Stock over the first three years the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, as the date the stock first becomes convertible is three years from the issue date.  The amount recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was approximately $1.7 million.  

In addition to the beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) recorded at the original issue date, we recorded additional BCF discounts for payment-in-kind shares accrued for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, as dividends.  After the early redemption, the face value of the remaining Series A Preferred Stock is $49.5 million.  We will issue 264,000 additional shares ($49.5 million * 4.0%) / $7.50) of Series A Preferred Stock as payment-in-kind dividends for the year ending December 31, 2017, the first year dividends are payable. The additional 264,000 shares will be discounted and amortized to the income statement over the remaining period up to the earliest conversion date, which is three years from the original issue date.  The additional BCF discount recorded at March 31, 2017 was approximately $201,000.  

Automatic Conversion

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of the tenth anniversary of the original issue date will automatically convert into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock.

Classification  

The Company classified the Series A Preferred Stock as temporary equity on the consolidated balance sheets due to certain change in control events that are outside the Company’s control, including deemed liquidation events described in the Series A Certificate of Designation.

Revenue Recognition [Abstract]

Revenue Recognition and Contractual Adjustments

Note G — Revenue Recognition and Contractual Adjustments

The Company recognizes revenues when (a) the price is fixed or determinable, (b) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (c) the service is performed and (d) collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company’s specialized diagnostic services are performed based on a written test requisition form or electronic equivalent, and revenues are recognized once the diagnostic services have been performed, and the results have been delivered to the ordering physician.  These diagnostic services are billed to various payers, including Medicare, commercial insurance companies, other directly billed healthcare institutions such as hospitals and clinics, and individuals.  The Company reports revenues from contracted payers, including Medicare, certain insurance companies and certain healthcare institutions, based on the contractual rate, or in the case of Medicare, published fee schedules.  The Company reports revenues from non-contracted payers, including certain insurance companies and individuals, based on the amount expected to be collected.  The difference between the amount billed and the amount estimated to be collected from non-contracted payers is recorded as an allowance to arrive at the reported net revenues.  The expected revenues from non-contracted payers are based on the historical collection experience of each payer or payer group, as appropriate.  The Company records revenues from patient pay tests net of a large discount and as a result recognizes minimal revenue on those tests.  The Company regularly reviews its historical collection experience for non-contracted payers and adjusts its expected revenues for current and subsequent periods accordingly.

The table below shows the adjustments made to gross service revenues to arrive at net revenues (in thousands), the amount reported on our statements of operations.
