COVID-19 pandemic2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

There continues to be widespread impact from the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, there has been a trend in many parts of the world of increasing availability and administration of vaccines against COVID-19, as well as an easing of restrictions on social, business, travel and government activities and functions. On the other hand, infection rates and regulations continue to fluctuate in various regions and there are ongoing global impacts resulting from the pandemic, including challenges and increases in costs for logistics and supply chains. We have also previously been affected by temporary laboratory closures, employment and compensation adjustments and impediments to administrative activities. The level and nature of the disruption caused by COVID-19 is unpredictable, may be cyclical and long-lasting and may vary from location to location.

In addition, we have experienced and are experiencing varying levels of inflation resulting in part from various supply chain disruptions, increased shipping and transportation costs, increased raw material and labor costs and other disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and general global economic conditions.

The continuing impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our operations, including duration, severity and scope, remains highly uncertain and cannot be fully predicted at this time. While we believe we have generally recovered from the adverse impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on our business during 2020, we believe that the COVID-19 pandemic could continue to adversely impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition in the future.

We continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and the guidance that is being provided by relevant federal, state and local public health authorities and may take additional actions based upon their recommendations. It is possible that we may have to make adjustments to our operating plans in reaction to developments that are beyond our control.

Transition costs

Transition expenses are primarily related to the Rutherford, New Jersey lab closing and subsequent move to Morrisville, North Carolina, which was completed during the first half of Fiscal 2021, as well as other cost-saving initiatives consisting primarily of reductions in headcount and the implementation of a new laboratory information system. To optimize the operations of laboratory operations within our pharma services, we transitioned activities from the Rutherford facility to our Morrisville facility. The transition included the transfer of personnel, expansion of the Morrisville facility and validation of transferred processes.

3.GOING CONCERN

3.LIQUIDITY

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and that contemplates the continuity of operations, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

In October 2021, the Company entered into a $7.5million revolving credit facility with Comerica.Comerica Incorporated (“Comerica”) (the “Comerica Loan Agreement”). See Note 18,17, Revolving Line of Credit, for more details. In addition, alsoAlso in October 2021, the Company entered into thean $8.0million term loan with BroadOak Fund V, L.P. (“BroadOak”) (the “BroadOak Term Loan,Loan”), the proceeds of which were used to repay in full at their maturity the existing secured promissory note with Ampersand NoteCapital Partners (“Ampersand”) (the “Ampersand Note”) and the 1315 Capital Note.II, L.P (“1315 Capital”) (the “1315 Capital Note”). In May 2022, the Company entered into a Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note agreement with BroadOak for an additional $2.0million (the “Convertible Note”), which was converted into a subordinated term loan and was added to the outstanding BroadOak Term Loan balance. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details.

In January 2022, the Company’s registration statement for a rights offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) became effective; however, the rights offering was subsequently terminated later in January 2022 when the Company announced that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, issued a new billing policy whereby CMS will no longer reimburse for the use of the Company’s ThyGeNEXT® and ThyraMIR® tests when billed together by the same provider/supplier for the same beneficiary on the same date of service. OnHowever, on February 28, 2022, the Company announced that the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) program issued a response on behalf of CMS stating that the January 2022 billing policy reimbursement change for ThyGeNEXT®(0245U) and ThyraMIR® (0018U) tests has been retroactively reversed to January 1, 2022. In May 2022, the Company was notified by CMS/NCCI that processing of claims for dates of service after January 1, 2022 would be completed beginning July 1, 2022. However, on June 9, 2022, the Company was notified that our local Medicare Administrator Contractor, Novitas re-priced ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) from $2,919to $806.59retroactively effective to January 1, 2022. On July 20, 2022 the Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory Tests (CDLT) Advisory Panel affirmed a gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT®of $806.59. As a result of the ThyGeNEXT® pricing change, the Company reduced its net realizable value, or NRV rates, for ThyGeNEXT® Medicare billing to reflect the $806.59pricing for tests performed during the second quarter of 2022. In addition, in order to reflect the retroactive pricing change to January 1, 2022, the Company recorded an NRV adjustment of $0.7million during the second quarter of 2022 to reduce revenue recorded during the first quarter of 2022. During July 2022,Effective January 1, 2023, the gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT® was set at $1,266.07.

Further, along with many laboratories, the Company began implementing cost-savings initiatives includingmay be affected by the Proposed Local Coverage Determination (“LCD”) DL39365, which was posted on June 9, 2022 and is currently under consideration by Novitas. If finalized, this Proposed LCD, which governs “Genetic Testing for Oncology,” could impact the existing LCD for one of our molecular tests, PancraGEN®. On June 5, 2023 the Company announced that CMS issued the final LCD of Genetic Testing for Oncology (L39365) which establishes non-coverage for the Company’s widely used PancraGEN® test effective July 17, 2023. On July 6, 2023, Novitas announced that it was rescinding implementation of the Genetic Testing for Oncology LCD (L39365) so that it will not become effective on July 17, 2023. Novitas issued a reductionnew proposed LCD affecting the same companies and tests and reaching the same conclusions as noted in headcountthe previously rescinded LCD on July 27, 2023. The Company has been invited to participate in a public meeting presentation regarding the tests in question. The timing and incidental expensescontent of any final LCD is uncertain at this time; the process could potentially take a year or longer to reach a conclusion. As a result, the Company is able to continue offering PancraGEN® and a freeze on all non-essential travelthe related Point2® fluid chemistry tests for amylase, CEA, and hiring.glucose. In the event Novitas ultimately restricts coverage for the PancraGEN® test, the Company’s liquidity could be negatively impacted.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we2023, the Company had an operating lossincome from continuing operations of $5.8 1.5million. As of June 30, 2022, we2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $2.1 5.1million, total current assets of $11.3 13.0million and current liabilities of $18.4 13.6million. As of August 5, 2022, we4, 2023, the Company had approximately $2.04.6 million of cash on hand, excluding restricted cash.hand.

 

We willThe Company may not generate positive cash flows from operations for the year ending December 31, 2022. We intend2023. The Company intends to meet ourits ongoing capital needs by using ourits available cash, and availability under the Comerica Loan Agreement, as well as through targeted revenue growth and margin improvement; collection of accounts receivable; containment of costs; and the potential use of other financing options and other strategic alternatives. However, if we arethe Company is unable to meet the financial covenants under the Comerica Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit and notes payable will become due and payable immediately. As of August 1, 2023, the Company had $3.4 million available under the Loan Agreement.

 

The Company is currently exploringcontinues to explore various strategic alternatives, dilutive and non-dilutive sources of funding, including equity and debt financings, strategic alliances, business development and other sources in order to provide additional liquidity. With the Company’s delisting of its common stock from Nasdaq in February 2021, and the possible removal of its common stock from trading on the OTCQX® if it failed to meet minimum market capitalization of $5 million by July 3, 2023, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to the Companyit has been adversely impacted. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such funding on terms acceptable to it. The Company was notified in May 2023 that it had met the Company.market capitalization requirements and was cleared to remain on OTCQX®.

With the proceeds received from the sale of the Pharma Solutions business, as well as the improvement in operating cash flows associated with the disposition, and the Company’s improved operating performance, as of the date of this filing, the Company anticipates that current cash and cash equivalents and forecasted cash receipts will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the next twelve months.

4.Management has determined that certain factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As of the date of this filing, the Company currently anticipates that current cash and cash equivalents will be insufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the next twelve months. These factors include inadequate liquidity to sustain operations, our substantial debts, margin deterioration and volatility, and historic net losses. Our consolidated financial statements assume we will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on having working capital for vendor payments, meeting short-term obligations on other accrued liabilities, and amongst other requirements, making interest payments on our debt obligations. Without positive operating margins and sufficient working capital and the ability to meet our debt obligations, our business will be jeopardized and we may not be able to continue in our current structure, if at all. Under these circumstances, we would likely have to consider other options, such as selling assets, raising additional debt or equity capital, cutting costs or otherwise reducing our cash requirements, or negotiating with our creditors to restructure our applicable obligations, including the potential filing of a petition for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). Such a filing would subject us to the risks and uncertainties associated with bankruptcy filing proceedings and may place investors in our stock at significant risk of losing some or all of their investment. In a bankruptcy, holders of our common stock will be subordinated to our Series B Preferred Stock, which is likely to increase the risk of total loss of investment for holders of our common stock. A bankruptcy filing by us could cause a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

5.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management’s estimates are based on historical experience, facts and circumstances available at the time, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates include accounting for valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, contingent consideration, allowances for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition, unrecognized tax benefits, and asset impairments involving other intangible assets. The Company periodically reviews these matters and reflects changes in estimates in earnings as appropriate. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

 

Our clinical services derive its revenues from the performance of its proprietary assays or tests. The Company’s performance obligation is fulfilled upon the completion, review and release of test results to the customer. The Company subsequently bills third-party payers or direct-bill payers for the tests performed. Under Accounting Standards Codification 606, revenue is recognized based on the estimated transaction price or net realizable value, which is determined based on historical collection rates by each payer category for each proprietary test offered by the Company. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, for all third party and direct-bill payers and proprietary tests, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using the expected value method based on historical experience.

 

For our clinical services, we regularly review the ultimate amounts received from the third-party and direct-bill payers and related estimated reimbursement rates and adjust the NRV’s and related contractual allowances accordingly. If actual collections and related NRV’s vary significantly from our estimates, we will adjust the estimates of contractual allowances, which affects net revenue in the period such variances become known. The Company recorded an NRV adjustment of $0.7 million as a reduction of revenue during the second quarter of 2022 to record the impact on revenue recorded during the first quarter of 2022. See Note 3, Going Concern,Liquidity, for more details.

 

For our discontinued pharma services, project level activities, including study setup and project management, arewere satisfied over the life of the contract while performance-related obligations arewere satisfied at a point in time as the Company processes samples delivered by the customer. Revenues arewere recognized at a point in time when the test results or other deliverables are reported to the customer.

9

Financing and Payment

 

For non-Medicare claims, our payment terms vary by payer category. Payment terms for direct-payers in our clinical services are typically thirty days and in our pharma services, were up to sixty days. Commercial third-party-payers are required to respond to a claim within a time period established by their respective state regulations, generally between thirty to sixty days. However, payment for commercial third-party claims may be subject to a denial and appeal process, which could take up to two years in some instances where multiple appeals are submitted. The Company generally appeals all denials from commercial third-party payers. We bill Medicare directly for tests performed for Medicare patients and must accept Medicare’s fee schedule for the covered tests as payment in full.

 

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Customer Contract

 

Sales commissions are expensed in the period in which they have been earned. These costs are recorded in sales and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable represent unconditional rights to consideration and are generated using its clinical services and pharma services. The Company’s clinical services are fulfilled upon completion of the test, review and release of the test results. In conjunction with fulfilling these services, the Company bills the third-party payer or direct-bill payer. Contractual adjustments represent the difference between the list prices and the reimbursement rates set by third-party payers, including Medicare, commercial payers, and amounts billed to direct-bill payers. Specific accounts may be written off after several appeals, which in some cases may take longer than twelve months. Pharma services represent,represented, primarily, the performance of laboratory tests in support of clinical trials for pharma services customers. The Company billsbilled these services directly to the customer.

 

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease in whole or in part at the inception of the contract. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term while lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. All leases with terms greater than twelve months result in the recognition of a ROU asset and a liability at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Unless a lease provides all of the information required to determine the implicit interest rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. We use the implicit interest rate in the lease when readily determinable.

 

10

Our lease terms include all non-cancelable periods and may include options to extend (or to not terminate) the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with terms of twelve months or less at the commencement date are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term and do not result in the recognition of an asset or liability. See Note 7, Leases.

 

Other Current Assets

 

Other current assets consisted of the following as of June 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021:2022:

Other  48   180 
Total other current assets $2,367  $2,294 

 

Long-Lived Assets, including Finite-Lived Intangible Assets

 

Finite-lived intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization of finite-lived acquired intangible assets is recognized on a straight-line basis, using the estimated useful lives of the assets of approximately two years to ten years in acquisition-related amortization expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized by reducing the recorded value of the asset to its fair value measured by future discounted cash flows. This analysis requires estimates of the amount and timing of projected cash flows and, where applicable, judgments associated with, among other factors, the appropriate discount rate. Such estimates are critical in determining whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount of such charge if an impairment loss is deemed to be necessary.

6.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

7.            FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their relative short-term nature. The Company’s financial liabilities reflected at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements include contingent consideration, warrant liability and note payable. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market-corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based upon observable inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values into three broad levels as follows:

 

Level 1:Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active markets from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.
  
Level 2:Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities.
  
Level 3:Valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.

 

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The valuation methodologies used for the Company’s financial instruments measured on a recurring basis at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth in the tables below:

In connection with the acquisition of certain assets from Asuragen, Inc., the Company recorded contingent consideration related to contingent payments and other revenue-based payments. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted income approach derived from revenue estimates. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.

 

In connection with the BroadOak loan, the Company records the loan at fair value. The fair value of the loan is determined by a probability-weighted approach regarding the loan’s change in control feature. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details. The fair value measurement is based on the estimated probability of a change in control and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.

Litigation

 

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company is aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a loss will result and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company will record a liability for the loss. In addition to the estimated loss, the recorded liability includes probable and estimable legal costs associated with the claim or potential claim. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the Company’s business. There is no pending litigation involving the Company at this time.

 

Due to the nature of the businesses in which the Company is engaged, it is subject to certain risks. Such risks include, among others, risk of liability for personal injury or death to persons using products or services that the Company promotes or commercializes. There can be no assurance that substantial claims or liabilities will not arise in the future due to the nature of the Company’s business activities. There is also the risk of employment related litigation and other litigation in the ordinary course of business.

 

The Company could also be held liable for errors and omissions of its employees in connection with the services it performs that are outside the scope of any indemnity or insurance policy. The Company could be materially adversely affected if it were required to pay damages or incur defense costs in connection with a claim that is outside the scope of an indemnification agreement; if the indemnity, although applicable, is not performed in accordance with its terms; or if the Company’s liability exceeds the amount of applicable insurance or indemnity.

10.STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Historically, stock options have been granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the common stock on the date of grant, with expiration 10 years from the date they are granted, and generally vest over a one to three-year period for employees and members of the Board. Upon exercise, new shares will be issued by the Company. The restricted shares and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted to Board members and employees generally have a three-year graded vesting period and are subject to accelerated vesting and forfeiture under certain circumstancescircumstances..

 

There were no stock option awards issued during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The following table provides the weighted average assumptions used in determining the fair value of the stock option awards granted during the six-month periodsperiod ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.2022.

11.INCOME TAXES

12.          INCOME TAXES

 

Generally, accounting standards require companies to provide for income taxes each quarter based on their estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The authoritative guidance for accounting for income taxes allows use of the discrete method when it provides a better estimate of income tax expense. Due to the Company’s valuation allowance position, it is the Company’s position that the discrete method provides a more accurate estimate of income tax expense and therefore income tax expense for the current quarter has been presented using the discrete method. As the year progresses, the Company refines its estimate based on the facts and circumstances by each tax jurisdiction. The following table summarizes income tax expense on loss from continuing operations and the effective tax rate for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 20222023 and 2021:2022:

Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of future performance. These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions involving judgments about, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control.

Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

Under these circumstances, we would likely have to consider other options, such as selling assets, raising additional debt or equity capital, cutting costs or otherwise reducing our cash requirements, or negotiating with our creditors to restructure our applicable obligations, including the potential filing of a petition for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code;
the effect of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic which has materially and adversely affected our business and financial results, particularly during portions of 2020, due to the slowdown in demand for our clinical services and pharma services, a reduction in samples received and testing volume and delayed third party collections and other factors and which may continue to have an adverse effect on our future business;generated limited revenue;
   
 our expectations of future revenues, expenditures, capital or other funding requirements;

(“Novitas”), the Company’s Medicare administrative contractor;
   
 our secured lenders have the right to foreclose on substantially all of our assets if we are unable to timely repay our outstanding obligations;
   
 our dependence on sales and reimbursements from our clinical services for more than 50%all of our revenue;
the ability to continue to generate sufficient revenue from theseour clinical service products and other products and/or solutions that we develop in the future is important for our ability to meet our financial and other targets;

our revenue recognition is based, in part, on our estimates for future collections which may prove to be incorrect with the changes in reimbursement rates for ThyGeNEXT® by Medicare causing us to revise our NRV’s which will reduce revenues in future periods;
   
 our ability to finance our business on acceptable terms in the future, which may limit the ability to grow our business, develop and commercialize products and services, develop and commercialize new molecular clinical service solutions and technologies and expand our pharma services offerings;technologies;

Impact of Our Reliance on CMS and Novitas

 

In January 2022, CMS stated they would no longer reimburse for the use of the Company’s ThyGeNEXT® and ThyraMIR® tests when billed together by the same provider/supplier for the same beneficiary on the same date of service. However, on February 28, 2022, the Company announced that the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) program issued a response on behalf of CMS stating that the January 2022 billing policy reimbursement change for ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) and ThyraMIR® (0018U) tests has been retroactively reversed to January 1, 2022. In May 2022, the Company was notified by CMS/NCCI that processing of claims for dates of service after January 1, 2022 would be completed beginning July 1, 2022. However, on June 9, 2022, the Company was notified that Novitas re-priced ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) from $2,919 to $806.59 retroactively effective to January 1, 2022. On July 20, 2022, the Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory Tests (CDLT) Advisory Panel affirmed a gapfill price of $806.59. As a result of the ThyGeNEXT® pricing change, the Company reduced its NRV rates for ThyGeNEXT® Medicare billing to reflect the $806.59 pricing for tests performed during the second quarter of 2022. In addition, in order to reflect the retroactive pricing change to January 1, 2022, the Company recorded an NRV adjustment of $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2022 to reduce revenue recorded during the first quarter of 2022. The Company estimates the ThyGeNEXT pricing change will negatively impact Fiscal 2022 revenue by approximately $5.0 million. During July 2022, the Company began implementing cost-savings initiatives including a reduction in headcount and incidental expenses and a freeze on all non-essential travel and hiring. TheIn August 2022, the Company is targeting an overall reduction of approximately $2.7 million in expenses year-over year by December 31, 2022.sold its Pharma Solutions business.

ImpactFurther, along with many laboratories, we may be affected by the Proposed Local Coverage Determination (“LCD”) DL39365, which was posted on June 9, 2022 with comments extended to September 6, 2022 due to changes made to the related draft and is currently under consideration by our local Medicare Administrative Contractor, Novitas. If finalized, this Proposed LCD, which governs “Genetic Testing for Oncology,” could impact the existing LCD for one of COVID-19 Pandemicour molecular tests, PancraGEN®. On June 5, 2023 we announced that CMS issued the final LCD of Genetic Testing for Oncology (L39365) which establishes non-coverage for the Company’s widely used PancraGEN® test effective July 17, 2023. On July 6, 2023, Novitas announced that it was rescinding implementation of the Genetic Testing for Oncology LCD (L39365) so that it will not become effective on July 17, 2023. Novitas issued a new proposed LCD affecting the same companies and tests and reaching the same conclusions as noted in the previously rescinded LCD on July 27, 2023. The Company has been invited to participate in a public meeting presentation regarding the tests in question. The timing and content of any final LCD is uncertain at this time; the process could potentially take a year or longer to reach a conclusion. As a result, we are able to continue offering PancraGEN® and the related Point2® fluid chemistry tests for amylase, CEA, and glucose. In the event Novitas ultimately restricts coverage for the PancraGEN® test, the Company’s liquidity could be negatively impacted.

 

There continues to be widespread impact from the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, there has been a trend in many parts of the world of increasing availability and administration of vaccines against COVID-19, as well as an easing of restrictions on social, business, travel and government activities and functions. On the other hand, infection rates and regulations continue to fluctuate in various regions and there are ongoing global impacts resulting from the pandemic, including challenges and increases in costs for logistics and supply chains. We have also previously been affected by temporary laboratory closures, employment and compensation adjustments and impediments to administrative activities. The level and nature of the disruption caused by COVID-19 is unpredictable, may be cyclical and long-lasting and may vary from location to location.

In addition, we have experienced and are experiencing varying levels of inflation resulting in part from various supply chain disruptions, increased shipping and transportation costs, increased raw material and labor costs and other disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and general global economic conditions.

The continuing impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our operations, including duration, severity and scope, remains highly uncertain and cannot be fully predicted at this time. While we believe we have generally recovered from the adverse impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on our business during 2020, we believe that the COVID-19 pandemic could continue to adversely impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition in the future.

We continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and the guidance that is being provided by relevant federal, state and local public health authorities and may take additional actions based upon their recommendations. It is possible that we may have to make adjustments to our operating plans in reaction to developments that are beyond our control.

Impact of the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

 

In late February 2022, RussiaRussian military forces invaded Ukraine, significantly amplifying already existing geopolitical tensions among Russiaand although the length, impact, and outcome of the ongoing war in Ukraine is highly unpredictable, this war has led, and could continue to lead, to significant market and other countries in the region and in the west,disruptions, including the U.S. Russia’s invasion, the responses of countries and political bodies to Russia’s actions, the larger overarching tensions, and Ukraine’s military response and the potential for wider conflict have resultedinstability in financial market volatilitymarkets, supply chain interruptions, political and capital markets disruption, potentially increasingsocial instability, and increases in magnitude,cyberattacks, intellectual property theft, and couldespionage.

Any of the above-mentioned factors could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

Following Russia’s actions, various countries, includingWe are also monitoring other macro-economic and geopolitical developments such as inflation and cybersecurity risks so that the U.S., Canada and the United Kingdom,Company can be prepared to react to new developments as well as the European Union, issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia. Such sanctions included, among other things, a prohibition on doing business with certain Russian companies, officials and oligarchs; a commitment by certain countries and the European Union to remove selected Russian banks from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT) electronic banking network that connects banks globally; a ban on Russian oil and gas imports to the U.S.; and restrictive measures to prevent the Russian Central Bank from undermining the impact of the sanctions. The current sanctions (and potential further sanctions in response to continued Russian military activity) and other actions may have adverse effects on regional and global economic markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets, potentially making it more difficult for us to obtain additional funds and increasing the volatility of our stock price. Any of the abovementioned factors could affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results.they arise.

Revenue Recognition

 

Clinical services derive its revenues from the performance of its proprietary assays or tests. Our performance obligation is fulfilled upon completion, review and release of test results to the customer, at which time we bill third-party payers or direct-bill payers for the tests performed. Under Accounting Standards Codification 606, revenue is recognized based upon the estimated transaction price or net realizable value (“NRV”), which is determined based on historical collection rates by each payer category for each proprietary test offered. To the extent that the transaction price includes variable consideration, for all third party and direct-bill payers and proprietary tests, we estimate the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using the expected value method based on historical experience.

 

The ultimate amounts received from the third-party and direct-bill payers and related estimated reimbursement rates are regularly reviewed and we adjust the NRV’s and related contractual allowances accordingly. If actual collections and related NRV’s vary significantly from our estimates, we adjust the estimates of contractual allowances, which affects net revenue in the period such variances become known.

 

With respect to our pharma services, customer performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time as the Company processes samples delivered by the customer. Project level activities, including study setup and project management, are satisfied over the life of the contract. Revenues are recognized at a point in time when the test results or other deliverables are reported to the customer.

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs associated with operating our laboratorieslaboratory and other costs directly related to our tests. Personnel costs, which constitute the largest portion of cost of services, include all labor-related costs, such as salaries, bonuses, fringe benefits and payroll taxes for laboratory personnel. Other direct costs include, but are not limited to, laboratory supplies, certain consulting expenses, royalty expenses, and facility expenses.

 

Transition costs

Transition expenses are primarily related to the Rutherford, New Jersey lab closing and subsequent move to Morrisville, North Carolina, which was completed during the first half of Fiscal 2021, as well as other cost-saving initiatives consisting primarily of reductions in headcount and the implementation of a new laboratory information system. To optimize the operations of laboratory operations within our pharma services, we transitioned activities from the Rutherford facility to our Morrisville facility. The transition included the transfer of personnel, expansion of the Morrisville facility and validation of transferred processes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to the United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, results provided throughout this document, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate the results of our performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP financial measures, are useful to both management and investors in analyzing our ongoing business and operating performance. We believe that providing the non-GAAP information to investors, in addition to the GAAP presentation, allows investors to view our financial results in the way that management views financial results.

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we discuss Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to measure cash flow of the ongoing business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income or loss from continuing operations, plus depreciation and amortization, acquisition related expenses, transition expenses, noncashnon-cash stock based compensation, interest and taxes, and other non-cash expenses including asset impairment costs, bad debt expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, goodwill impairment and change in fair value of contingent consideration,notes payable and warrant liability. The table below includes a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and that contemplates the continuity of operations, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In October 2021, the Company and its subsidiarieswe entered into athe Comerica Loan and Security Agreement (the “Comerica Loan Agreement”) with Comerica, Bank (“Comerica”), providing for a revolving credit facility of up to $7,500,000 (the “Credit Facility”). The Company may useis using the proceeds of the Credit Facility for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

 

The amount that may be borrowed under the Credit Facility is the lower of (i) the revolving limit of $7,500,000 (the “Revolving Line”) and (ii) 80% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable plus an applicable non-formula amount consisting of $2,000,000 of additional availability at close not based upon the Company’s eligible accounts receivable, with such additional availability reducing by $250,000 per quarter beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 2022. Borrowings on the Credit Facility are limited to $5,000,000 until 80% of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ customers are paying into a collection account or segregated governmental account with Comerica. The Revolving Line can also include, at the Company’s option, credit card services with a sublimit of $300,000. Borrowings on the Revolving Line are subject to an interest rate equal to prime plus 0.50%, with prime being the greater of (x) Comerica’s stated prime rate or (y) the sum of (A) the daily adjusting LIBOR rate plus (B) 2.5% per annum. The Company is also required to pay an unused facility fee quarterly in arrears in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum on the average unused but available portion of the Revolving Line for such quarter. See Note 18,17, Revolving Line of Credit, for more details. Comerica has a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets. As of August 1, 2023 the Company owed $1.0 million on the line of credit and had approximately $3.4 million available to borrow on the line. The Company intends to make two additional monthly payments of $0.5 million to have the line of credit paid in full by September 30, 2023.

In addition, also in October 2021, the Company entered into athe BroadOak Loan and Security Agreement (the “BroadOak Loan Agreement”) with BroadOak, providing for a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $8,000,000 (the “Term Loan”). Funding of the Term Loan took place on November 1, 2021. The Term Loan matures upon the earlier of (i) October 31, 2024 or (ii) the occurrence of a change in control, and bears interest at the rate of 9% per annum. The Term Loan is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets and is subordinate to the Company’s $7,500,000 revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank. The Term Loan has an origination fee of 3% of the Term Loan amount, and a terminal payment equal to (i) 15% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan, (ii) 20% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs after the first anniversary but on or prior to the second anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan and (iii) 30% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs after the second anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan, or if the Term Loan is repaid on its maturity date. Upon receipt of the term loan, the proceeds were used to repay in full at their maturity the notes extended by Ampersand and 1315 Capital discussed above. See Note 14, Notes Payable,for more details. In May 2022, the Company issued a Convertible Note to BroadOak, pursuant to which BroadOak funded a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $2.0 million. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details. The Company will use the proceeds of the Convertible Debt for general corporate purposes and working capital.

The BroadOak Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative restrictive covenants, including restrictions on certain mergers, acquisitions, investments and encumbrances which could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. The BroadOak Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default. The Comerica Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative restrictive covenants that are applicable whether or not any amounts are outstanding under the Comerica loan agreement. These restrictive covenants, which include restrictions on certain mergers, acquisitions, investments, encumbrances, etc., could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. The Comerica Loan Agreement also contains financial covenants requiring specified minimum liquidity and minimum revenue thresholds and also contains customary events of default. However, if we are unable to meet the financial covenants under the Comerica Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit and notes payable will become due and payable immediately.

In January 2022, the Company’s registration statement for a rights offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) became effective; however, the rights offering was subsequently terminated later in January 2022 when the Company announced that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, issued a new billing policy whereby CMS will no longer reimburse for the use of the Company’s ThyGeNEXT® and ThyraMIR® tests when billed together by the same provider/supplier for the same beneficiary on the same date of service. On February 28, 2022, the Company announced that the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) program issued a response on behalf of CMS stating that the January 2022 billing policy reimbursement change for ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) and ThyraMIR® (0018U) tests has been retroactively reversed to January 1, 2022. In May 2022, the Company was notified by CMS/NCCI that processing of claims for dates of service after January 1, 2022 would be completed beginning July 1, 2022. However, on June 9, 2022, the Company was notified that Novitas re-priced ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) from $2,919 to $806.59 retroactively effective to January 1, 2022. On July 20, 2022, the Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory Tests (CDLT) Advisory Panel affirmed a gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT® of $806.59. As a result of the ThyGeNEXT® pricing change, the Company reduced its net realizable value, or NRV rates for ThyGeNEXT® Medicare billing to reflect the $806.59 pricing for tests performed during the second quarter of 2022. In addition, in order to reflect the retroactive pricing change to January 1, 2022, the Company recorded an NRV adjustment of $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2022 to reduce revenue recorded during the first quarter of 2022. During JulyEffective January 1, 2023, the gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT® was set at $1,266.07.

On August 31, 2022, the Company began implementing cost-savings initiatives includingclosed on the sale of its Pharma Solutions business for a reduction in headcount and incidental expenses andtotal sale price of $6.2 million after a freeze on all non-essential travel and hiring.post-closing working capital adjustment.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2022,2023, we had an operating lossincome from continuing operations of $5.8$1.5 million. As of the six months ended June 30, 2022,2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.9$5.1 million, net of restricted cash, total current assets of $11.0$13.0 million net of restricted cash, and current liabilities of $18.4$13.6 million. As of August 5, 2022,4, 2023, we had approximately $2.0$4.6 million of cash on hand, net of restricted cash.hand.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was $1.5 million. The main component of cash provided by operating activities was our net income of $0.5 million, which included non-cash expenses of $1.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $4.2 million. The main component of cash used in operating activities was our net loss of $6.2 million which was partially offset by depreciation and amortization expense of $1.6 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021,2023, net cash used in operatinginvesting activities was $6.8 million. The main component of$0.3 million and for the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in operatinginvesting activities was our net loss of $7.7$0.1 million.

 

30

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in financing activities was $1.0 million, which were payments made on the Revolving Line. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash provided from financing activities was $3.1 million, of which $1.0 million was from the drawdown on the revolving line of creditRevolving Line and $2.0 million was the Convertible Debt agreement entered into with BroadOak. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash provided from financing activities was $7.5 million, of which $7.4 million were the net proceeds from the Company’s secured promissory notes with Ampersand and 1315. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details.

 

We willdid not generate positive cash flows from operations for the year ending December 31, 2022. We intend to meet our ongoing capital needs by using our available cash, and availability under the Comerica Loan Agreement, as well as through targeted revenue growth and margin improvement; collection of accounts receivable; containment of costs; and the potential use of other financing options and other strategic alternatives. However, if we are unable to meet the financial covenants under the Comerica Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit and notes payable will become due and payable immediately. The Company anticipates that current cash and cash equivalents and forecasted cash receipts will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the next twelve months.

 

The Company is currently exploringcontinues to explore various strategic alternatives, dilutive and non-dilutive sources of funding, including equity and debt financings, strategic alliances, business development and other sources in order to provide additional liquidity. With the Company’s delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq in February 2021 itsand the possible removal of our common stock from trading on the OTCQX® if we had failed to meet minimum market capitalization of $5 million for ten consecutive trading days by July 3, 2023, our ability to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to the Company has been adversely impacted. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such funding on terms acceptable to the Company. The Company was notified in May 2023 that it had met the market cap requirements and was cleared to remain on OTCQX®.

Management has determinedFurther, along with many laboratories, we may be affected by the Proposed Local Coverage Determination (“LCD”) DL39365, which was posted on June 9, 2022 and remains under consideration by our local Medicare Administrative Contractor, Novitas If finalized, this Proposed LCD, which governs “Genetic Testing for Oncology,” could impact the existing LCD for one of our molecular tests, PancraGEN®. On June 5, 2023 we announced that certain factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. AsCMS issued the final LCD of Genetic Testing for Oncology (L39365) which establishes non-coverage for the Company’s widely used PancraGEN® test effective July 17, 2023. On July 6, 2023, Novitas announced that it was rescinding implementation of the dateGenetic Testing for Oncology LCD (L39365) so that it will not become effective on July 17, 2023. Novitas issued a new proposed LCD affecting the same companies and tests and reaching the same conclusions as noted in the previously rescinded LCD on July 27, 2023. The Company has been invited to participate in a public meeting presentation regarding the tests in question. The timing and content of any final LCD is uncertain at this filing,time; the Company currently anticipates that current cash and cash equivalents will be insufficientprocess could potentially take a year or longer to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the next twelve months. These factors include inadequate liquidity to sustain operations, our substantial debts, margin deterioration and volatility, and historic net losses. Our consolidated financial statements assumereach a conclusion. As a result, we will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on having working capital for vendor payments, meeting short-term obligations on other accrued liabilities, and amongst other requirements, making interest payments on our debt obligations. Without positive operating margins and sufficient working capital and the ability to meet our debt obligations, our business will be jeopardized and we may not beare able to continue in our current structure, if at all. Under these circumstances, we would likely have to consider other options, such as selling assets, raising additional debt or equity capital, cutting costs or otherwise reducing our cash requirements, or negotiating with our creditors to restructure our applicable obligations, includingoffering PancraGEN® and the potential filing of a petitionrelated Point2® fluid chemistry tests for relief underamylase, CEA, and glucose.

Inflation

 

We do not believe that inflation had a significant impact on our results of operations for the periods presented. However, inflation and supply chain disruptions, whether caused by restrictions or slowdowns in shipping or logistics, increases in demand for certain goods used in our operations, or otherwise, could impact our operations in the near term.
