RUTHERFORD, N.J. May 15, 2014 Cancer Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: CGIX) (CGI or the Company), a DNA-based diagnostics company focused on developing genomic-based oncology tests and services, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014, and announced an agreement to acquire BioServe Biotechnologies (India) Pvt. Ltd. for approximately $1.9 million primarily in CGIX stock and other deferred consideration. The transaction is expected to close during the third quarter of 2014 and is subject to customary closing conditions and government approvals in India.
Under the terms of the agreement, BioServe Biotechnologies (India) Pvt. Ltd. (BioServe India), headquartered in Hyderabad, India, will become a subsidiary of CGI, and will be renamed Cancer Genetics India Pvt. Ltd. BioServe India is a premier genomics services provider, and molecular kit manufacturer serving both the research and clinical markets.
The opportunity to access and serve the high growth diagnostics and personalized medicine market in India through the acquisition of BioServe India is an ideal launching point for our continued growth strategy which will include selective acquisitions, said Panna Sharma, CEO of Cancer Genetics, Inc. We expect the acquisition to be accretive in 2015. It has the potential to accelerate our next generation sequencing development, improve our gross profit margins, and diversify our revenue growth outside the U.S.
BioServe India has the infrastructure and scientific expertise required to integrate CGIs DNA probe manufacturing and proprietary FHACT test into a market that accounts for more than 25 percent of the global deaths attributed to cervical cancer. BioServe India is known for providing its nearly 200 clients with cutting-edge genomic services, including next-generation sequencing, genotyping, and DNA synthesis. BioServe India provides immediate revenue benefits to CGI through its long-term contracts and agreements with academic and research institutions. BioServe India is certified by ISO-9001:2008, the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) and the Department of Science and Industrial Research (DSIR). CGI plans to make the Hyderabad based lab CLIA certified in the coming quarters.
CGI also announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014.
First Quarter Financial Highlights (comparisons are with the first quarter 2013)
| Test volume grew 45 percent to 2,772 tests |
| First quarter revenue grew 17 percent to $1.4 million |
| Revenue from direct bill customers, which include hospitals, cancer centers and biopharma companies, grew 70 percent |
| Net loss decreased by 20 percent or $500,000 to $2.4 million, exclusive of the effect of changes in non-cash derivative warrant valuation |
| Cash and cash equivalents were $47.6 million at March 31, 2014 with $41.3 million unrestricted cash along with $6.3 million of restricted cash at quarter end |
Total first quarter test volume increased 45 percent to 2,772 tests. First quarter of 2014 revenue increased 17 percent, or $212 thousand, to $1.4 million, as the increase in test volume was partially offset by a decrease in revenue per test. Average revenue per test decreased by 18 percent to $506, as direct bill tests and our newly launched unique FHACT test for cervical cancer are a larger percentage of activity than in past quarters. The revenue per test on FHACT is lower than our average historical test price.
Revenue from direct bill customers, which include hospitals, cancer centers and biopharma companies, represented 61 percent of total revenues, increased 70 percent, or $358 thousand, to $869 thousand. Medicare revenue, which accounted for 17 percent of total revenue, decreased 3 percent, or $7 thousand, to $250 thousand. Revenue from insurance carriers and others, including DNA probe sales, representing 22 percent of total revenues, decreased 31 percent, or $139 thousand, to $311 thousand.
For the first quarter of 2014, research and development expenses increased 22 percent over the first quarter of 2013 to $597 thousand primarily due to an increase in headcount involved in the development and validation of our tests.
For the first quarter of 2014, sales and marketing expenses increased 89 percent to $749 thousand due to increased headcount as the company hired additional sales and marketing personnel.
For the first quarter of 2014 general and administrative expenses increased 74 percent to $2.7 million, primarily due to an increase in compensation costs of $899 thousand, 58 percent of which was due to a separation agreement with the former CFO. The remaining increase was due to increased stock based compensation expense, higher professional fees and Delaware State franchise taxes.
The Companys net loss for first quarter of 2014 was $2.5 million, or a loss of ($0.27) per diluted share. This compares to net income of $2.4 million or a loss of ($2.18) per diluted share in the first quarter of 2013 as the non-cash income from the derivative warrant valuation is excluded from the fully diluted EPS computation.
Total cash and cash equivalents were $47.6 million at March 31, 2014. $41.3 million was unrestricted cash and cash equivalents with $6.3 million restricted cash.
Recent Corporate Highlights
| Initiated collaborative study and presented new data with researchers from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center at American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) to identify genomic alterations that can diagnose and predict metastasis in clear-cell renal cell cancer. |
| Expected commercial launch for next-generation sequencing based panels in lymphoid and myeloid cancers targeted during the summer of 2014. |
| CGIs FHACT test for cervical cancer was promoted at the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists annual clinical meeting driving further awareness among the womens health community. |
| Launched Calreticulin (CALR) gene mutation analysis test to assist in the diagnosis of acute leukemias and myeloproliferative neoplasms, which has nearly 3 million diagnosed patients per year. |
| Extended unique position in targeted diagnosis and prognosis of hematologic cancers with launch of MatBA®-FL for follicular lymphoma and MatBA®-MCL for mantle-cell lymphoma. The MatBA franchise of tests now address over one-third of non-Hodgkin lymphomas and are available as part of comprehensive testing programs for both clinicians and biopharma trials. |

RUTHERFORD, N.J. May 15, 2014 Cancer Genetics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CGIX) (CGI or the Company), a DNA-based diagnostics company focused on developing genomic-based oncology tests and services, today announced the acquisition of BioServe Biotechnologies (India) Pvt. Ltd. for approximately $1.9 million, primarily in CGIX stock and other deferred consideration.
Under the terms of the agreement, BioServe Biotechnologies (India) Pvt. Ltd. (BioServe India), headquartered in Hyderabad, India, will become a wholly owned subsidiary of CGI, and will be renamed Cancer Genetics India Pvt. Ltd. CGI plans on retaining all 26 current employees of BioServe India, and further expanding and strengthening the sales and clinical teams in India. BioServe India currently operates out of a state-of-the-art 14,000-square-foot genomics facility in Hyderabad. BioServe India is backed by VenturEast, a pioneering healthcare-focused venture capital fund manager based in India, with close to $300 million under management.
BioServe India is a state-of-the-art genomics services provider and molecular kit manufacturer serving both the research and clinical markets. By utilizing BioServe Indias molecular services, researchers can identify genetic markers, validate drug targets and correlate clinical and molecular data to accelerate the development of new and effective drugs. Additionally, BioServe Indias growing clinical diagnostics capabilities in oncology and next-generation sequencing are well-positioned to serve the needs of improving oncology diagnostics care and management throughout India.
Global cancer costs are expected to reach $458 billion in 2030 according to the American Cancer Society. By allowing the Company to scale up operations for genetic analysis, bioinformatics, and manufacturing, this acquisition will provide opportunities to create greater cost efficiencies and increase productivity while bringing clinically validated and actionable genomic content into community hospitals and cancer care centers globally.
With this acquisition, CGI is now better positioned to increase our global presence in personalized cancer care and further improve outcomes and lower costs for cancer patients, said Panna Sharma, CEO of Cancer Genetics, Inc. The BioServe India team adds immediate, high-quality revenue, and provides a clear path to an accretive deal for shareholders. The infrastructure and enhanced capacities in next generation sequencing for oncology accelerate our development plans while positioning us to make more effective use of our capital.
BioServe India has the infrastructure and scientific expertise required to integrate CGIs DNA probe manufacturing and proprietary FHACT test into a market that accounts for more than 25 percent of the global deaths attributed to cervical cancer. FHACT is a non-invasive genomic test that can be work as a reflex test from a Pap smear and that can identify cancer and pre-cancer lesions caused by persistent HPV infection. The test can provide physicians with crucial information in making treatment decisions in cervical and HPV-related cancers.
BioServe India is known for providing its nearly 200 clients with cutting-edge genomic services, including next-generation sequencing genotyping and DNA synthesis. Some of their notable customers include Dr. Reddys Laboratory, Indian Institute of Science Education & Research and the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology. BioServe India is certified by ISO-9001:2008, the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL), which is the Indian equivalent to CLIA, and the Department of Science and Industrial Research (DSIR). CGI plans to make the Hyderabad based lab CLIA certified in the coming quarters.
Mr. Sharma noted: Another important driver for the acquisition of BioServe India was the world-class management and R&D team thats currently in place, as well as a company culture that fits in well with CGI. We believe that this type of transaction can serve as a blueprint for future acquisitions and accelerate the delivery of shareholder value.
Strategic and Financial Benefits
| BioServe Indias revenue has grown an average of 30 percent over the last three years. |
| The transaction is expected to be financially neutral in 2014 and accretive in 2015. |
| Cancer Genetics will have the ability to help global clinical trial clients with trials in India or Asia, a market that has experienced 30-40 percent CAGR over the past several years. |
| Cancer Genetics will be well-positioned to provide oncology-focused next-generation sequencing and CGIs proprietary cancer portfolio as a strategic driver of growth in the high-growth Indian market. |
