Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these words or other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our financial performance, and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in “Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019~~2020 or other filings that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance, events or circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the documents that we reference herein and have filed with the SEC, with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance, and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to conform these statements to new information, actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.

Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Quanterix,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to Quanterix Corporation and its subsidiaries. “Quanterix,” “Simoa,” “Simoa HD-X,” “Simoa HD-1,” “SR-X,” “SP-X,” “HD-X Analyzer,” “HD-1 Analyzer” and our logo are our trademarks. All other service marks, trademarks and trade names appearing in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are the property of their respective owners. We do not intend our use or display of other companies’ trade names, trademarks or service marks to imply a relationship with, or endorsement or sponsorship of us by, these other companies.

Quanterix Corporation

Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization and operations

Quanterix Corporation (Nasdaq: QTRX) (the Company) is a life sciences company that has developed next generation, ultra-sensitive digital immunoassay platforms that advance precision health for life sciences research and diagnostics. The Company's platforms are based on its proprietary digital "Simoa" detection technology. The Company's Simoa bead-based and planar array platforms enable customers to reliably detect protein biomarkers in extremely low concentrations in blood, serum and other fluids that, in many cases, are undetectable using conventional, analog immunoassay technologies, and also allow researchers to define and validate the function of novel protein biomarkers that are only present in very low concentrations and have been discovered using technologies such as mass spectrometry. These capabilities provide the Company's customers with insight into the role of protein biomarkers in human health that has not been possible with other existing technologies and enable researchers to unlock unique insights into the continuum between health and disease. The Company is currently focusing on protein detection, which it believes is an area of significant unmet need and where it has significant competitive advantages. However, in addition to enabling new applications and insights in protein analysis, the Company’s Simoa platforms have also demonstrated applicability across other testing applications, including detection of nucleic acids and small ~~molecules~~.molecules.

The Company launched its first immunoassay platform, the Simoa HD-1, in 2014. The HD-1 is a fully automated immunoassay bead-based platform with multiplexing and custom assay capability, and related assay test kits and consumable materials. The Company launched a second bead-based immunoassay platform (SR-X) in the fourth quarter of 2017 with a more compact footprint than the Simoa HD-1 and less automation designed for lower volume requirements while still allowing multiplexing and custom assay capability. The Company initiated an early-access program for its third instrument (SP-X) on the new Simoa planar array platform in January 2019, with the full commercial launch commencing in April 2019. In July 2019, the Company launched the Simoa HD-X, an upgraded version of the Simoa HD-1 which replaces the HD-1. The HD-X has been designed to deliver significant productivity and operational efficiency improvements, as well as greater user flexibility. The Company began shipping and installing HD-X instruments at customer locations in the third quarter of ~~2019, ahead of its original fourth quarter expectation.~~2019. The Company also performs research services on behalf of customers to apply the Simoa technology to specific customer needs. The Company's customers are primarily in the research use only market, which includes academic and governmental research institutions, the research and development laboratories of pharmaceutical manufacturers, contract research organizations, and specialty research laboratories.

The Company acquired Aushon Biosystems, Inc. (Aushon) in January 2018. With the acquisition of Aushon, the Company acquired a CLIA certified laboratory, as well as Aushon's proprietary sensitive planar array detection technology. Leveraging its proprietary sophisticated Simoa image analysis and data analysis algorithms, the Company further refined this planar array technology to develop the SP-X instrument to provide the same Simoa sensitivity found in its bead-based platform.

The Company completed the acquisition of UmanDiagnostics AB (Uman), a Swedish company located in Umea, Sweden, in August 2019. The acquisition closed with respect to 95% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Uman on July 1, 2019 and with respect to the remaining 5% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Uman on August 1, 2019. Uman supplies neurofilament light (Nf-L) antibodies and ELISA kits, which are widely recognized by researchers and biopharmaceutical and diagnostics companies world-wide as the premier solution for the detection of Nf-L to advance the development of therapeutics and diagnostics for neurodegenerative conditions. With the acquisition of Uman, the Company has secured a long-term source of supply for a critical technology.

~~“At-the-market offering”~~

On March 19, 2019, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (the Sales Agreement) with Cowen and Company, LLC (Cowen) with respect to an “at-the-market” offering program under which the Company may offer and

~~Table of Contents~~

~~sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million through Cowen as its sales agent.~~

On June 5, 2019, the Company issued approximately 2.2 million shares of common stock at an average stock price of $22.73 per share pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement. The “at-the-market” offering resulted in gross proceeds of $49.7 million. The Company incurred $1.7 million in issuance costs associated with the “at-the-market” offering, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $48.0 million.

Underwritten public ~~offering~~offerings

On August ~~8, 2019,~~6, 2020, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with ~~J.P. Morgan Securities LLC~~Leerink and ~~SVB Leerink LLC,~~Cowen, as representatives of the several underwriters, relating to an underwritten public offering of approximately ~~2.7~~3.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The underwritten public offering resulted in gross proceeds of ~~$69.0~~$97.6 million. The Company incurred ~~$4.5~~$6.2 million in issuance costs associated with the underwritten public offering, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of ~~$64.5~~$91.4 million.

Table of Contents

On February 3, 2021, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, SVB Leerink LLC, and Cowen, as representatives of the several underwriters, relating to an underwritten public offering of approximately 4.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The underwritten public offering resulted in gross proceeds of $287.5 million. The Company incurred $17.8 million in issuance costs associated with the underwritten public offering, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $269.7 million.

Basis of presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for each period presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form ~~10‑Q~~10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form ~~10‑K~~10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019~~2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March ~~13,~~5, 2021 (the 2020 ~~(the 2019~~ Annual Report on Form 10-K). The consolidated financial information as of December 31, ~~2019~~2020 has been derived from the audited ~~2019~~2020 consolidated financial statements included in the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report on Form ~~10‑K.~~10-K.

2. Significant accounting policies

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the accounts of Quanterix Corporation and its ~~wholly‑owned~~wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. In making those estimates and assumptions, the Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. The Company’s significant estimates included in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are related to revenue recognition, fair value of ~~equity instruments and notes receivable, fair value of~~ assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions, valuation allowances recorded against deferred tax assets, ~~right-of-use assets~~ and ~~lease liabilities, and stock‑based compensation.~~valuation of inventory. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign ~~Currency~~currency

~~Table of Contents~~

The Company translates assets and liabilities of its foreign subsidiaries at rates in effect at the end of the reporting period. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the reporting period. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive ~~loss.~~income.

Income taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded if, based on the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Table of Contents

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). When uncertain tax positions exist, the Company recognizes the tax benefit of tax positions to the extent that the benefit will more likely than not be realized. The determination as to whether the tax benefit will more likely than not be realized is based upon the technical merits of the tax position as well as consideration of the available facts and circumstances. As of March 31, ~~2020~~2021 the Company did not have any significant uncertain tax positions.

Business combinations

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company ~~allocates the fair value of the total consideration transferred to~~generally recognizes the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. The fair values assigned, defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants, are based on estimates and assumptions determined by management. The excess consideration over the aggregate ~~fair~~ value of tangible and intangible assets, net of liabilities assumed, is recorded as goodwill. These valuations require significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets.

The Company typically uses the discounted cash flow method to value acquired intangible assets. This method requires significant management judgment to forecast future operating results and establish residual growth rates and discount factors. The estimates used to value and amortize intangible assets are consistent with the plans and estimates that are used to manage the business and are based on available historical information and industry estimates and averages. If the subsequent actual results and updated projections of the underlying business activity change compared with the assumptions and projections used to develop these values, the Company could experience impairment charges. In addition, the Company has estimated the economic lives of certain acquired assets and these lives are used to calculate depreciation and amortization expense. If estimates of the economic lives change, depreciation or amortization expenses could be accelerated or slowed.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash primarily represents collateral for a letter of credit issued as security for the lease for the Company’s headquarters in Billerica, ~~Massachusetts.~~Massachusetts, and to secure the Company’s corporate credit card program. The restricted cash is long term in nature as the Company will not have access to the funds until more than one year from March 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company is considered to be an “emerging growth company” (EGC) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (JOBS Act). The JOBS Act provides that an ~~emerging growth company~~EGC can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an ~~emerging growth company~~EGC can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company may remain an EGC until the last day of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of the closing of the initial public offering occurs, although if the market value the Company’s common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 before that time or if the Company has annual gross revenues of $1.07 billion or more in any fiscal year, the Company would cease to be an EGC as of December 31 of the applicable year. The Company also would cease to be an EGC if it issues more than $1 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. The Company has elected to avail itself of this extended transition period and, as a result, the

~~Table of Contents~~

Company will not be required to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies so long as the Company remains an ~~emerging growth company.~~EGC.

Recently Adopted

In ~~February~~June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) established Topic ~~842,~~ ~~Leases~~326, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, ~~Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10,~~ ~~Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11,~~ ~~Targeted Improvements~~. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. An optional transition approach is required under ASU 2018-11, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application.

~~On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842),~~ (ASC 842), using the optional transition method allowing entities to recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance sheet without restating comparative prior periods presented. ASC 842 requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases and changes many key definitions, including the definition of a lease. Lessees will continue to differentiate between finance leases and operating, and classification will impact expense recognition.

The Company elected the following practical expedients for all lease asset classes, which must be elected as a package and applied consistently to all of its leases at the transition date: i) the Company did not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; ii) the Company did not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases (that is, all existing leases that were classified as operating leases in accordance with ASC 840, ~~Leases~~ ~~(ASC 840), are classified as operating leases); and iii) the Company did not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases.~~

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable. The Company has elected the practical expedient not to recognize leases on the balance with a term of twelve months or less. The Company’s leases consist of office and lab space and office equipment. All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating, and options to renew a lease are only included in the lease term to the extent those options are reasonably certain to be exercised. Additionally, the Company elected to apply the practical expedient not to separate lease and nonlease components for all leases.

Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding ROU assets are initially recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable, and as a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments, which reflects the fixed rate at which the Company could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments, for a similar term, in a similar economic environment. To estimate its incremental borrowing rate, a credit rating applicable to the Company is estimated using a synthetic credit rating analysis since the Company does not currently have a rating agency-based credit rating.

The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of $12.2 million and $22.8 million, respectively, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, with the difference between the ROU asset and lease liability primarily attributable to unamortized lease incentives and deferred rent related to its lease for its corporate headquarters at 900 Middlesex Turnpike in Billerica, Massachusetts (the “900 Middlesex Turnpike Lease”).

~~In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,~~ ~~Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be~~

~~Table of Contents~~

considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2020 with no material effect to its financial statements.

~~In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018‑13,~~ ~~“Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”~~. This ASU removed the following disclosure requirements: (1) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; (2) the policy for timing of transfers between levels; and (3) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. Additionally, this update added the following disclosure requirements: (1) the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period; and (2) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information (such as the median or arithmetic average) in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018‑13 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted. ~~The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2020 with no material effect to its financial statements.~~

~~Not Yet Adopted~~

~~In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13,~~ Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASC 326) by issuing Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13(ASU 2016-13), which amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a ~~forward-looking~~forward-

The ~~standard is effective~~Company early adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2021 using the modified retrospective approach. The Company’s consolidated financial statements for prior-year periods have not been revised and are reflective of the ~~Company beginning~~credit loss requirements which were in ~~the first quarter of 2021, with early~~effect for that period. The adoption ~~permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the expected impact~~ of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on ~~its~~the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (ASU 2018-15).This ASU addresses the accounting for implementation, setup and other upfront costs paid by a customer in a cloud computing or hosting arrangement. The guidance aligns the accounting treatment of these costs incurred in a hosting arrangement treated as a service contract with the requirements for capitalization and amortization costs to develop or obtain internal-use software. The Company adopted ASU 2018-15 on January 1, 2021 using the prospective method. The Adoption of ASU 2018-15 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12), which is intended to simplify various areas related to ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions for performing intra period tax allocations and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The guidance also simplifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill and the effect of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in interim periods. The Company early adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

There have been no other material changes to the significant accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements previously disclosed in the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report on Form ~~10‑K.~~10-K.

3. Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of a promised good or service. The amount of revenue recognized reflects consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods and services, incentives and taxes collected from customers, that are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

~~The Company adopted~~ ~~Topic 606,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with~~ Customers ~~(ASC 606) on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method for all contracts not completed as of the date of adoption.~~

~~Customers~~

The Company’s customers primarily consist of entities engaged in the life sciences research market that pursue the discovery and development of new drugs for a variety of neurologic, cardiovascular, oncologic and other protein biomarkers associated with diseases. The Company’s customer base includes several of the largest biopharmaceutical companies, academic research organizations and distributors who serve certain geographic markets.

~~Table of Contents~~

Product revenue

The Company’s products are composed of analyzer instruments, assay kits and other consumables such as reagents. Products are sold directly to biopharmaceutical and academic research organizations or are sold through distributors in EMEA and Asia Pacific regions. The sales of instruments are generally accompanied by an initial year of implied service-type warranties and may be bundled with assays and other consumables and may also include other items such as training and installation of the instrument and/or an extended service warranty. Revenues from the sale of products are recognized at a point in time when the Company transfers control of the product to the customer, which is upon installation for instruments sold to direct customers, and based upon shipping terms for assay kits and other consumables. Revenue for instruments sold to distributors is generally recognized based upon shipping terms (either upon shipment or delivery).

Table of Contents

Service and other revenue

Service revenues are composed of contract research services, initial implied one-year service-type warranties, extended services contracts and other services such as training. Contract research services are provided through the Company’s Accelerator Laboratory and generally consist of fixed fee contracts. Revenues from contract research services are recognized at a point in time when the Company completes and delivers its research report on each individually completed study, or over time if the contractual provisions allow for the collection of transaction consideration for costs incurred plus a reasonable margin through the period of performance of the services. Revenues from service-type warranties are recognized ratably over the contract service period. Revenues from other services are immaterial.

Collaboration and license revenue

The Company may enter into agreements to license the intellectual property and know-how associated with its instruments and certain antibodies in exchange for license fees and future royalties (as described below). The license agreements provide the licensee with a right to use the intellectual property with the license fee revenues recognized at a point in time as the underlying license is considered functional intellectual property. ~~The Company recognized revenues from a sales- or usage- based royalties related to the licensing of the Company’s technology and intellectual property.~~

Payment terms

The Company’s payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. Payment from customers is generally required in a term ranging from 30 to 45 days from date of shipment or satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company does not provide financing arrangements to its customers.

The Company’s contracts with customers may include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. The Company combines any performance obligations that are immaterial with one or more other performance obligations that are material to the contract. For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract transaction price, including discounts, to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Judgment is required to determine the standalone selling price for each distinct performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling prices based on prices charged to customers in observable transactions, and uses a range of amounts to estimate standalone selling prices for each performance obligation. The Company may have more than one range of standalone selling price for certain products and services based on the pricing for different customer classes.

Variable consideration in the Company’s contracts primarily relates to (i) sales- and usage-based royalties related to the license of intellectual property in collaboration and license contracts and (ii) certain non-fixed fee research services contracts. ASC 606 provides for an exception to estimating the variable consideration for sales- and usage-based royalties related to the license of intellectual property, such that the sales- orand usage-based royalty will be recognized in

~~Table of Contents~~

the period the underlying transaction occurs. The Company ~~has recorded sales- or usage-based royalty revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 related to the intellectual property licensed by the Company. The Company~~ recognizes revenue from sales- orand usage-based royalty revenue at the later of when the sale or usage occurs and the satisfaction or partial satisfaction of the performance obligation to which the royalty has been allocated.

The aggregate amount of transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied or are partially satisfied as of March 31, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019~~ is ~~$5.8~~$7.2 million and ~~$5.9~~$5.8 million, respectively. As of March 31, ~~2020,~~2021, of the performance obligations not yet satisfied or partially satisfied, ~~$5.4~~$6.4 million is expected to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months, with the remainder to be recognized within the 24 months thereafter. The ~~$5.8~~$6.4 million at March 31, ~~2020~~2021 principally consists of amounts billed for undelivered services related to initial and extended service-type warranties and research services, as well as ~~$1.7~~$0.5 million related to undelivered licenses of intellectual property for a diagnostics company (see Note 13).

Costs to obtain a contract

The Company’s sales commissions are generally based on revenues of the Company. The Company has determined that certain commissions paid under its sales incentive programs meet the requirements to be capitalized as they are incremental and would not have occurred absent a customer contract. The change in the balance of costs to obtain a contract are as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31, 2020
Balance at December 31, 2019	$	335

			Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

Recognition of costs to obtain a contract		(203)		(160)
Balance at March 31, 2020	$	226
Balance at March 31, 2021			$	176

The Company has classified the balance of capitalized costs to obtain a contract as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets and classifies the expense as a component of cost of goods sold and selling, general, and administrative expense over the estimated life of the contract. The Company considers potential impairment in these amounts each period.

ASC 606 provides entities with certain practical expedients and accounting policy elections to minimize the cost and burden of adoption.

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which revenue is recognized at the amount to which the Company has the right to invoice for services performed.

The Company will exclude from its transaction price any amounts collected from customers related to sales and other similar taxes.

When determining the transaction price of a contract, an adjustment is made if payment from a customer occurs either significantly before or significantly after performance, resulting in a significant financing component. The Company does not assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when the Company

~~Table of Contents~~

performs its obligations under the contract and when the customer pays is one year or less. None of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component as of March 31, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

The Company has elected to account for the shipping and handling as an activity to fulfill the promise to transfer the product, and therefore will not evaluate whether shipping and handling activities are promised services to its customers.

Grant revenue

The Company recognizes grant revenue as it performs services under the arrangement when the funding is committed. Revenues and related research and development expenses are presented gross in the consolidated statements of operations as the Company has determined it is the primary obligor under the arrangement relative to the research and development services.

Accounting for grants does not fall under ASC 606, as the grantor will not benefit directly from the Company’s expansion or product development. As there is no authoritative guidance under U.S. GAAP on accounting for government assistance to for-profit business entities, the Company has accounted for grants by analogy to International Accounting Standards (IAS) 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance (IAS 20).

Grants to the Company contain both monetary amounts granted related to assets and monetary amounts granted related to income, which are grants other than those related to assets. The grants related to assets are for the expansion

Table of Contents

and increase of manufacturing capacity. The grants related to income are for additional research and development, as well as other non-asset related scale up costs.

Under IAS 20, grants related to assets shall be presented in the consolidated balance sheets either by recognizing the grant as deferred income (which is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset), or by deducting the grant in calculating the carrying amount of the asset (which is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations over the life of the depreciable asset as a reduced depreciation expense). Both methods are acceptable under IAS 20. The Company has elected to record grants related to assets as a deduction in calculating the carrying value of the asset.

Under IAS 20, grants related to income are presented as part of the consolidated statements of operations, either separately or under a general heading. Both methods are acceptable under IAS 20. The Company has elected to record grants related to income separately on the consolidated statements of operations as grant revenue. The related expenses are recorded within operating expenses.

On June 22, 2020, the Company entered into a workplan 1 award (WP1) with the National Institute of Health (NIH), under the Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics (RADx) program to assess the feasibility of a novel SARS-CoV-2 antigen detection test using the Company’s Simoa technology. WP1 was complete as of December 31, 2020.

On September 29, 2020, the Company entered into a workplan 2 award (WP2) with the NIH under its RADx program. WP2, which has a total award value of $18.2 million, accelerates the continued development, scale-up, and deployment of the novel SARS-CoV-2 antigen detection test using the Company’s Simoa technology. The contract provides funding to expand assay kit manufacturing capacity and commercial deployment readiness. Release of the $18.2 million of funding under WP2 is based on the achievement of certain milestones, and there is no assurance that the Company can meet all the milestones on a timely basis, if at all. If the Company does not meet all of the milestones, it will not be able access the full $18.2 million in funding under the contract. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 the Company recognized $2.3 million in grant revenue and incurred $1.8 million in research and development expense related to WP2.

The following table summarizes the activity under WP2 (in thousands):

4. Net loss per share

Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the ~~weighted‑average~~weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the ~~weighted‑average~~weighted-average number of common shares and potentially

Table of Contents

dilutive securities outstanding for the period determined using the ~~treasury‑stock~~treasury-stock and ~~if‑converted~~if-converted methods. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, unvested restricted common stock, restricted stock units, stock options, and warrants are considered to be potentially dilutive securities, but are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would be ~~anti‑dilutive~~anti-dilutive and therefore basic and diluted net loss per share were the same for all periods presented.

No amounts are presented in the table above for this obligation to issue a warrant as the issuance of the warrant is not considered probable.

5. Fair value of financial instruments

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820), establishes a fair value hierarchy for instruments measured at fair value that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the Company’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

ASC 820 identifies fair value as the exchange price, or exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a ~~three‑tier~~three-tier fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between the following:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Fair value measurements as of March 31, 2021 are as follows (in thousands):

7. Allowance for Credit Losses

~~7. Investments~~The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products and services. The Company’s expected loss allowance methodology for accounts receivable is developed using historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions, and a review of the current status of customers’ trade accounts receivable. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimated accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on aging of the accounts receivable balances.

~~During~~Customers are assessed for credit worthiness upfront through a credit review, which includes assessment based on the ~~third quarter~~Company’s analysis of ~~2016,~~their financial statements when a credit rating is not available. The Company evaluates contract terms and conditions, country, and political risk, and may require prepayment to mitigate risk of loss. Specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company ~~purchased a minority interest in preferred stock in a privately held company for $0.3 million. During~~monitors changes to the ~~third quarter of 2018, the Company was issued a convertible note by a privately held company having a principal amount of $0.2 million.~~

~~The preferred stock investment is recorded~~receivables balance on a ~~cost~~timely basis, ~~in other non-current assets on~~and balances are written off as they are determined to be uncollectable after all collection efforts have been exhausted.

As of March 31, 2021, the ~~accompanying~~Company’s accounts receivable balance ~~sheets as the Company does not have~~was $14.9 million, net of $0.3 million of allowance for credit losses. The following table provides a ~~controlling interest, does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the privately held company, and the fair value~~roll-forward of the equity investment is not readily determinable. The Company performs an impairment analysis at each reporting period to determine if there is any readily available fair value information that would indicate an impairment. The Company has determined there was no impairment duringallowance for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, ~~2020 or in any prior period.~~2021 that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected (in thousands):

The convertible note is held as an available-for-sale investment, which is carried at fair market value, with the unrealized gains and losses included in the determination of comprehensive income and reporting stockholders equity. When determining the estimated fair value of the convertible notes, the Company used a commonly accepted valuation methodology.

Equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method are measured at fair value, with any changes in fair value recognized in net income. For any such investments that do not

have readily determinable fair values, the Company elects the measurement alternative to measure the investments at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.

10. Leases

The Company is a lessee under leases of offices, lab spaces, and certain office equipment. Some of the Company’s leases include options to extend the lease, and these options are included in the lease term to the extent they are reasonably certain to be exercised.

~~900 Middlesex Turnpike Lease~~

The Company’s primary lease is the 900 Middlesex Turnpike Lease. On October 2, 2018, the Company entered into a 137-month operating lease for the Company’s new headquarters in Billerica, Massachusetts. The lease is for approximately 92,000 square feet of office and laboratory space and commenced on April 1, 2019. The lease contains a period of free rent and escalating monthly rent payments. As part of the lease, the Company was required to enter into a $1.0 million Letter of Credit drawable by the lessor under specifically outlined conditions, which will be subsequently

~~Table of Contents~~

~~reduced throughout the lease term.~~ Pursuant to a work letter entered into in connection with the 900 Middlesex Turnpike Lease, the landlord contributed an aggregate of $8.2 million toward the cost of construction and tenant improvements for the building. ~~Under the lease the Company has the option to extend the lease for two successive five-year terms, and the renewal options are not reasonably certain to be exercised.~~

In applying the ASC 842 transition guidance, the 900 Middlesex Turnpike Lease remained classified as an operating lease and the Company recorded ROU assets of $12.2 million and lease liability of $22.8 million on the effective date. The difference between the ROU and the lease liability was driven by the Company derecognizing deferred rent of $3.0 million and the lease obligation incentive of $7.6 million. The Company is recognizing rent expense on a straight-line basis throughout the remaining term of the leases.

~~48 Tvistevägen~~

~~The Company has three leases at 48 Tvistevägen Umeå, Sweden for laboratory spaces, manufacturing spaces, and office space. All of these Uman leases have been assessed as operating leases.~~

In applying the ASC 842 transition guidance, the Uman leases remained classified as operating leases and the Company recorded ROU assets of less than $0.1 million and lease liability of less than $0.1 million on the effective date. The Company is recognizing rent expense on a straight-line basis throughout the remaining term of the leases.

11. Commitments and contingencies

Tufts University

In June 2007, the Company entered into a license agreement (the License Agreement) for certain intellectual property with Tufts University (Tufts). Tufts is a related party to the Company due to Tufts’ equity ownership in the Company and because a ~~board~~ member of the Company’s Board of Directors was affiliated with Tufts. The License Agreement, which was subsequently amended, is exclusive and sublicensable, and will continue in effect on a country-by-country basis as long as there is a valid claim of a licensed patent in a country. The Company is committed to pay license and maintenance fees, prior to commercialization, in addition to low single digit royalties on direct sales and services and a royalty on sublicense income. During ~~each of~~ the three months ended March 31, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, the Company recorded royalty expense of $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in cost of product revenue on the consolidated statements of operations.

~~Other licenses~~

~~During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company entered into a license~~Supply agreement for certain intellectual property with a third party. The non‑exclusive, non‑sublicensable license provides the Company access to certain patents specifically for protein detection, and shall be in effect until the expiration of the last licensed patent. In consideration for these rights, the Company committed to certain license fees, milestone payments, minimum annual royalties and a mid‑single digit royalty. The Company is required to make mid‑single digit royalty payments on net sales of products and services which utilize the licensed technology. In September 2019, all remaining patents related to the intellectual property expired and the license agreement terminated. As this agreement was terminated in 2019, the Company recorded no royalty expense during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and royalty expense of less than $0.1 million in cost of product revenue on the consolidated statements of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

~~Development and supply agreement~~

Through the Company’s development agreement with STRATEC Biomedical, as amended in December 2016, the parties agreed on additional development services for an additional fee, which is payable when the additional development is completed. A total of $11.7 million is payable to STRATEC upon completion of the development activities. This amount is being recorded to research and development expense and accrued expenses as the services are performed. The services were completed during the year ended December 31, 2018. Substantive efforts related to these additional development activities started in the first quarter of 2019 and were completed in the third quarter of 2019.

The Company’s supply agreement with STRATEC Biomedical requires the Company to purchase a minimum number of commercial units over a ~~seven‑year~~seven-year period ending in May 2021. If the Company were to fail to purchase a required number of commercial units, the Company would be obligated to pay termination costs plus a fee based on the shortfall of commercial units purchased compared to the required minimum amount. Based on the number of commercial instruments purchased as of March 31, ~~2020, assuming no additional commercial units were purchased, this fee would equal $9.1 million. The amount~~2021, the Company ~~could be obligated to pay under the~~has satisfied its required minimum purchase ~~commitment is reduced as each commercial unit is purchased.~~amount per the supply agreement. Also, if the Company terminates the supply agreement

~~Table of Contents~~

under certain circumstances and has not purchased a required number of commercial units, it would be obligated to issue warrants to purchase 93,341 shares of common stock (the Supply Warrants) at $0.003214 per share. The Company believes that it will purchase sufficient units to meet the requirements of the minimum purchase commitment and, therefore, has not accrued for any of the potential cash consideration. The Supply Warrants are accounted for at fair value; however, the fair value of the

Table of Contents

Supply Warrants as of March 31, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 was insignificant as there was a low probability of the warrants being issued.

Legal contingencies

The Company is subject to claims in the ordinary course of business; however, the Company is not currently a party to any pending or threatened litigation, the outcome of which would be expected to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or the results of its operations. The Company accrues for contingent liabilities to the extent that the liability is probable and estimable.

12. Notes payable

Loan agreement

On April 14, 2014, the Company executed a ~~Loan Agreement~~loan agreement with a lender, as subsequently amended. As of March 31, ~~2020,~~2021, there were no0 additional amounts available to borrow under the debt facility. The interest rate on this term loan is variable based on ~~a calculation~~the greater of 8% or 8% plus the prime rate less 5.25% ~~with a minimum interest rate of 8%~~. Interest is paid monthly beginning the month following the borrowing date. At loan inception and in connection with the amendments, the Company issued the lender warrants to purchase shares of stock. The ~~Loan Agreement~~loan agreement also contains prepayment penalties and an end of term charge. Fees incurred upon execution of the agreements, and the fair value of warrants on the date of grant were accounted for as a reduction in the book value of debt and accreted through interest expense, using the effective interest rate method, over the term of the debt.

~~Amendment 5 to loan~~ Under the amended agreement,

In August 2018, the Company signed Amendment 5 to the Loan Agreement (Amendment 5). Amendment 5 instituted a 2018 End of Term Charge of $0.1 million. Additionally, the Term Loan Maturity Date extended until March 1, 2020. Amendment 5 additionally, changed the due date of the End of Term Charge to, the earlier of (i) the Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) the date that Borrower prepays the outstanding Secured Obligations or (iii) the date that the Secured Obligations become due and payable. The Company incurred a cost of $0.05 million in relation to the execution of Amendment 5. In connection with the extension of the due date of the Loan, the deferral of principal payments (Amendment 3) was further deferred until the new Term Loan Maturity Date.

~~On March 2, 2020, the Company paid $0.1 million in end of term fees related to Amendment 5 of the Loan Agreement.~~

~~Amendment 6 to loan agreement~~

In October 2018, the Company signed Amendment 6 to the Loan Agreement, which amended the Loan Agreement’s collateral clause to exclude the $1 million certificate of deposit associated with the lease on the Company’s new headquarters in Billerica, MA.

~~Amendment 7 to loan agreement~~

On April 15, 2019, the Company signed Amendment 7 to the Loan Agreement, which extends the interest only payment period through July 1, 2021 and also extends the maturity date until October 1, 2021. As part of this Amendment 7, a “2019 End of Term Charge” for $50,000 was added to the Loan Agreement due on the earliest to occur of (i) the Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) the date that the Company prepays the outstanding Secured Obligations and (iii) the date that the Secured Obligations become due and payable. In addition, the Company is required to pay the loan principal in ~~five~~four equal installments starting July 1, 2021, with the final ~~principal~~ payment and end of term charge to be made on October 1, 2021.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~As of March 31, 2020, the remaining loan balance is classified as a long term liability since all principal payments are due greater than twelve months after the balance sheet date.~~

As of March 31, ~~2020,~~2021, debt payment obligations due based on principal payments are as follows (in thousands):

Abbott Laboratories

On September 29, 2020, the Company entered into a Non-Exclusive License Agreement (the Abbott License Agreement) with Abbott Laboratories (Abbott). Pursuant to the terms of the Abbott License Agreement, the Company granted Abbott a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license, without the right to sublicense, under the Company’s bead-based single molecule detection patents (Licensed Patents) in the field of in vitro diagnostics. Abbott agreed to pay the Company an initial license fee of $10.0 million in connection with the execution of the Abbott License Agreement, which was recognized as license revenue during the 2020 fiscal year. Abbott has also agreed to pay the Company milestone fees subject to the achievement by Abbott of certain development, regulatory and commercialization milestones and low single-digit royalties on net sales of licensed products.

Overview

We are a life sciences company that has developed next generation, ~~ultra‑sensitive~~ultra-sensitive digital immunoassay platforms that advance precision health for life sciences research and diagnostics. Our platforms are based on our proprietary digital “Simoa” detection technology. Our Simoa ~~bead‑based~~bead-based and planar array platforms enable customers to reliably detect protein biomarkers in extremely low concentrations in blood, serum and other fluids that, in many cases, are undetectable using conventional, analog immunoassay technologies, and also allow researchers to define and validate the function of novel protein biomarkers that are only present in very low concentrations and have been discovered using technologies such as mass spectrometry. These capabilities provide our customers with insight into the role of protein biomarkers in human health that has not been possible with other existing technologies and enable researchers to unlock unique insights into the continuum between health and disease. We believe this greater insight will enable the development of novel therapies and diagnostics and facilitate a paradigm shift in healthcare from an emphasis on treatment to a focus on earlier detection, monitoring, prognosis and, ultimately, prevention. We are currently focusing on protein detection, which we believe is an area of significant unmet need and where we have significant competitive advantages. However, in addition to enabling new applications and insights in protein analysis, our Simoa platforms have also demonstrated applicability across other testing applications, including detection of nucleic acids and small molecules.

We currently sell ~~all~~most of our products for life science research, primarily to laboratories associated with academic and governmental research institutions, as well as pharmaceutical, biotechnology and contract research companies, through a direct sales force and support organizations in North America and Europe, and through distributors or sales agents in other select markets, including Australia, Brazil, China, Czech Republic, India, Israel, Japan, Lebanon, Mexico, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan.

Our instruments are designed to be used either with assays fully developed by us, including all antibodies and supplies required to run the tests, or with “homebrew” kits where we supply some of the components required for testing, and the customer supplies the remaining required elements. Accordingly, our installed instruments generate a recurring revenue stream. We believe that our recurring consumable revenue is driven by our customers’ ability to extract more valuable data using our platform and to process a large number of samples quickly with little hands-on preparation.

We commercially launched our first immunoassay platform, the Simoa HD-1, in January 2014. The HD-1 is based on our bead-based technology, and assays run on the HD-1 are fully automated. We initiated commercial launch of the SR-X instrument in December 2017. The SR-X utilizes the same Simoa bead-based technology and assay kits as the HD-1 in a compact benchtop form with a lower price point, more flexible assay preparation, and a wider range of applications. In July 2019, we launched the Simoa HD-X, an upgraded version of the Simoa HD-1, which replaces the HD-1. The HD-X has been designed to deliver significant productivity and operational efficiency improvements, as well as greater user flexibility. We began shipping and installing HD-X instruments at customer locations in the third quarter of ~~2019, ahead of our original fourth quarter expectation.~~ 2019. As the installed base of the Simoa instruments increases, total consumables revenue overall is expected to

Table of Contents

increase. We believe that consumables revenue should be subject to less

~~Table of Contents~~

period-to-period fluctuation than our instrument sales revenue, and will become an increasingly important contributor to our overall revenue.

On January 30, 2018, we acquired Aushon Biosystems, Inc. (Aushon) for $3.2 million in cash, with an additional payment of $0.8 million made in July 2018, six months after the acquisition date. With the acquisition of Aushon, we acquired a CLIA certified laboratory, as well as Aushon’s proprietary sensitive planar array detection technology. Leveraging our proprietary sophisticated Simoa image analysis and data analysis algorithms, we further refined this planar array technology to develop the SP-X instrument to provide the same Simoa sensitivity found in our Simoa bead-based platform. We initiated an early-access program for the SP-X instrument in January 2019, with the full commercial launch commenced in April 2019.

On August 1, 2019, we completed our acquisition of ~~Uman~~UmanDiagnostics AB (Uman) for an aggregate purchase price of $21.2 million, comprised of (i) $15.7 million in cash plus (ii) 191,152 shares of our common stock (representing $5.5 million based on the closing prices of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market on July 1, 2019 and August 1, 2019, the dates of issuance). The acquisition closed with respect to 95% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Uman on July 1, 2019 and with respect to the remaining 5% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Uman on August 1, 2019. Uman supplies neurofilament light (Nf-L) antibodies and ELISA kits, which are widely recognized by researchers and biopharmaceutical and diagnostics companies world-wide as the premier solution for the detection of Nf-L to advance the development of therapeutics and diagnostics for neurodegenerative conditions.

On September 29, 2020, we entered into a Non-exclusive License Agreement (the Abbott License Agreement) with Abbott Laboratories (Abbott). Pursuant to the terms of the Abbott License Agreement, we granted Abbott a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license, without the right to sublicense, under our bead-based single molecule detection patents in the field of in vitro diagnostics. Abbott has paid us an initial license fee of $10.0 million in connection with the execution of the Abbott License Agreement, which was recognized as collaboration and license revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized as collaboration and license revenue approximately $1.2 million of previously deferred revenue upon entering into the Abbott License Agreement. Abbott has also agreed to pay us milestone fees subject to the achievement by Abbott of certain development, regulatory and commercialization milestones and low single digit royalties on net sales of licensed products.

We are subject to ongoing uncertainty concerning the ~~COVID-19~~SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic, including its length and severity and its effect on our business. During the ~~quarter,~~first and second quarters of 2020, we implemented a resiliency plan focused on the health and safety of our employees and maintaining continuity of our operations. We have seen an impact on instrument revenue due to limitations on our ability to access certain customer sites and complete instrument installations, as well as an impact on consumables revenue from interruptions in certain customer laboratories. We expect these COVID-19 related challenges to continue until these customers return to normal operations.

In view of the pandemic, we have adjusted our operations to expand capacity in our Accelerator Laboratory to support customers whose operations have been disrupted and to sustain clinical trials. We also ~~believe~~determined that our cytokine assay technology provides researchers with important and differentiated tools to study disease progression, cytokine release syndrome, and patient-treatment response in the fight against COVID-19,~~. We are also working towards~~ and began developing a ~~SARS-COV-2 quantitative~~SARS- CoV-2 semi-quantitative IgG assay anand a SARS-CoV-2 antigen ~~early~~ detection assay, ~~in blood,~~ and prototyping a high-definition ~~SARS-COV-2 assay~~multiplex SARS-CoV-2 serology assay. In December 2020, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for our Simoa Semi-Quantitative SARS-CoV-2 IgG Antibody Test, and in January 2021, the FDA issued an EUA for our Simoa SARS-CoV-2 N Protein Antigen Test, each of which is run on our HD-X instrument. We currently intend to pursue authorization for additional sample types, including nasal swabs, saliva, and capillary dried blood obtained from a fingerstick. Preliminary clinical research studies suggest the viral antigen may be readily detectable in asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic patients, and we are exploring extending the test to screening applications, home-based sample collection and pooling to enable ~~research pursuits. We believe that these activities may provide additional business~~larger scale testing.

In September 2020, we entered into a workplan 2 award (WP2) with the National Institute of Health (NIH) under the Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics (RADx) program. This contract, which has a total award value of $18.2

Table of Contents

million, is intended to accelerate the continued development, scale-up and ~~revenue opportunities as~~deployment of our novel SARS-CoV-2 antigen test. Initial early feasibility of this test was funded in part through the ~~situation unfolds.~~ workplan 1 award (WP1) we were granted in June 2020. WP2 supports clinical validation of the test in support of the EUA submissions with the FDA and provides funding to expand assay kit manufacturing capacity and commercial deployment readiness. Contract funding is subject to achievement of pre-defined milestones and the contract period runs through September 2021.

The COVID-19 situation remains dynamic and there remains significant uncertainty as to the length and severity of the pandemic, the actions that may be taken by government authorities, the impact to the business of our customers and suppliers, the long-term economic implications and other factors identified in ~~Section~~ “Part I, Item 1A, ~~"Risk Factors"~~Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020 as may be updated by “Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors” of our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact to our business, financial condition, and operating results.

As of March 31, ~~2020,~~2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of ~~$96.4~~$442.7 million. ~~Since~~Other than the third quarter of 2020, since inception, we have incurred net losses. Our net loss was $31.5 million, $40.8 million, ~~$31.5 million,~~ and ~~$27.0~~$31.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 ~~2018~~ and ~~2017,~~2018, respectively, and ~~$11.6~~$10.1 million and ~~$9.4~~$11.6 million for the three months ended March 31, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. As of March 31, ~~2020,~~2021, we had an accumulated deficit of ~~$227.9~~$257.9 million and stockholders' equity of ~~$119.0~~$471.5 million. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses at least through the next 24 months. We expect our expenses will increase substantially as we:

●

expand our sales and marketing efforts to further commercialize our products;

●

strategically acquire companies or technologies that may be complementary to our business;

●

expand our research and development efforts to improve our existing products and develop and launch new products, particularly if any of our products are deemed by the United States Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, to be medical devices or otherwise subject to additional regulation by the FDA;

~~Table of Contents~~

●

seek premarket approval, or PMA, or 510(k) clearance, or emergency use authorization, or EUA, from the FDA for our existing products or new products if or when we decide to market products for use in the prevention, diagnosis or treatment of a disease or other condition;

●

hire additional personnel and continue to grow our employee headcount;

●

enter into collaboration arrangements, if any, or in-license other products and technologies;

●

expand assay kit manufacturing capacity and commercial development readiness in connection with the RADx WP2 contract;

●

add operational, financial and management information systems; and

●

continue to incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company.

~~Income tax benefit was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to a provision of less than $0.1 million for~~ the same period in ~~2019.~~2020. The change is primarily due to ~~certain state and international taxes~~the decrease in ~~2020.~~the tax benefit recorded on the operating results of our foreign subsidiaries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations principally through equity offerings, borrowings from credit facilities and revenue from our commercial operations.

Equity Offerings

In December 2017, we completed our IPO in which we sold 4,916,480 shares of common stock at an initial public offering price of $15.00 per share. The aggregate net proceeds received by us from the offering, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were $65.6 million. Prior to the IPO, we had raised capital through the sale of redeemable convertible preferred stock in private placement transactions.

On ~~March 19, 2019,~~August 6, 2020, we entered into a Sales Agreement for an “at the market offering” arrangement with Cowen, which allows us to issue and sell shares of common stock pursuant to a shelf registration statement for total gross sales proceeds of up to $50.0 million from time to time through Cowen, acting as our agent. During the 2019 fiscal year, we sold an aggregate of 2,186,163 shares of common stock pursuant to this agreement resulting in $49.7 million in gross proceeds and $48.0 million in net proceeds.

~~On August 8, 2019, we~~ entered into an underwriting agreement ~~with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC~~Leerink and ~~SVB Leerink LLC,~~Cowen, as representatives of the several underwriters, relating to an underwritten public offering of ~~2,732,673~~ approximately 3.0 million shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The underwritten public offering resulted in gross proceeds of $97.6 million. We incurred $6.2 million in issuance costs associated with the underwritten public offering, resulting in net proceeds of $91.4 million.

On February 3, 2021, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Leerink, and Cowen, as representatives of the several underwriters, relating to an underwritten public offering of 4,107,142 shares of common stock at a public offering price of ~~$25.25~~$70.00 per share. We received ~~$69.0~~$287.5 million in gross proceeds and ~~$64.5~~approximately $269.7 million in net proceeds.

Loan Facility with Hercules

On April 14, 2014, we executed a ~~Loan Agreement~~loan agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc. ~~(formerly known~~(Hercules), as ~~Hercules Technology Growth Capital, Inc.). The Loan Agreement provided a total debt facility~~subsequently amended most recently in April 2019. As of ~~$10.0 million, which is secured by substantially all of our assets. At closing, we borrowed $5.0 million in principal and had the ability to draw the~~

~~Table of Contents~~

~~additional $5.0 million over the period from November 1, 2014 to~~ March 31, ~~2015.~~2021 and December 31, 2020, our outstanding long term debt balance was $7.7 million. The interest rate on this term loan was variable based on a calculation of 8% plus the prime rate less 5.25%, with a minimum interest rate of 8%. Interest was to be paid monthly beginning the month following the

Table of Contents

borrowing date. ~~Principal payments were scheduled to begin on September 1, 2015, unless~~Under the amended agreement, we achieved certain milestones which would have extended this date to December 1, 2015 or March 1, 2016. In connection with the execution of the Loan Agreement, we issued Hercules a warrant to purchase up to 173,428 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $3.3299 per share. Upon closing of the IPO, this warrant was automatically converted into a warrant to purchase up to 53,960 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $10.70 per share.

On March 4, 2015, we executed Amendment 1 to the Loan Agreement and drew the additional $5.0 million available under the Loan Agreement at that time. The terms of the amendment deferred principal payments to start on December 1, 2015 or March 1, 2016 if we obtained at least $10.0 million in equity financing before December 1, 2015. This equity financing did not occur before December 1, 2015.

In January 2016, we executed Amendment 2 to the Loan Agreement, which increased the total facility available by $5.0 million to a total of $15.0 million and further delayed the start of principal payments to July 1, 2016. Following the Series D Preferred Stock financing in March 2016, we could have elected to further delay the start of principal payments until January 1, 2017, however we voluntarily began paying principal on July 1, 2016. Upon signing this amendment, we drew an additional $3.0 million under the debt facility. The remaining $2.0 million available for borrowing expired unused in 2016, decreasing the amounts available under the debt facility to $13.0 million.

In March 2017, we signed Amendment 3 to the Loan Agreement increasing the total facility available by $5.0 million to a total of $18.0 million. We did not draw any of this additional amount, which was available for us to draw until February 28, 2018. Additionally, we did not request an optional term loan for an incremental $5.0 million which was available for us to request until September 3, 2018. Principal payments were delayed to September 1, 2018 and the loan maturity date was extended to March 1, 2019. We voluntarily made principal payments in the months of March, April, and May 2018. No principal payments were made in June, July or August 2018. The amendment did not affect the due date of the existing end of term fees (in aggregate $0.5 million) which were due on February 1, 2018. In connection with this amendment, we issued Hercules a warrant to purchase up to 38,828 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $3.67 per share. Upon closing of the IPO, this warrant was automatically converted into a warrant to purchase up to 12,080 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $11.80 per share.

In July 2017, we signed Amendment 4 to the Loan Agreement, which capped the "Term Loan Interest Rate" with respect to the 2017 Term Loan Advance only at 10%. Amendment 4 to the Loan Agreement did not change or affect any other element of the Loan Agreement or the Term Loan Advance.

In August 2018, we signed Amendment 5 to the Loan Agreement, which extends the interest only payment period through March 1, 2020 and also extends the loan maturity date to March 1, 2020. We accounted for the August 2018 amendment as a modification pursuant to ASC 470-50 and determined that no material change occurred as a result of the modification. In addition, the amendment deferred the payment of principal until the maturity date. $0.1 million of end of term payments were paid in March 2020.

In October 2018, we signed Amendment 6 to the Loan Agreement, which amends the Loan Agreement's collateral clause to exclude the $1 million certificate of deposit associated with the lease on our new headquarters in Billerica, Massachusetts. The Loan Agreement and amendments contain end of term payments and are recorded in the debt accounts. $0.5 million of end of term payments were paid in the year ended December 31, 2018.

On April 15, 2019, we signed Amendment No. 7 to the Loan Agreement, which extends the interest only payment period through July 1, 2021 and also extends the loan maturity date to October 1, 2021. We are required to pay the loan principal in ~~five~~four equal installments starting July 1, 2021, with the final principal payment and end of term charge to be made on October 1, 2021.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~On July 2, 2019, 66,041 warrants were exercised by Hercules on a net, non-cash, basis. Per the terms of the warrant~~The loan agreement ~~we issued 45,690 shares of common stock with a value equal to Hercules’ gain.~~

~~The Loan Agreement~~ contains negative covenants restricting our activities, including limitations on dispositions, mergers or acquisitions, incurring indebtedness or liens, paying dividends or making investments and certain other business transactions. There are no financial covenants associated with the ~~Loan Agreement.~~loan agreement. The obligations under the ~~Loan Agreement~~loan agreement are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of specified events of default, including a material adverse change in our business, operations or financial or other condition, which is subjective in nature. We have determined that the risk of subjective acceleration under the material adverse events clause is not probable and therefore have classified the outstanding principal in current and long-term liabilities based on scheduled principal payments.

~~Uman Acquisition~~

In August 2019, we completed the acquisition of Uman, in which we paid $15.7 million in cash to the shareholders of Uman. We funded this payment through our existing cash balances. In addition, we issued $5.5 million in stock in connection with the purchase of Uman. The acquisition closed with respect to 95% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Uman on July 1, 2019 and with respect to the remaining 5% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Uman on August 1, 2019.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

We derive cash flows from operations primarily from the sale of our products and services. Our cash flows from operating activities are also significantly influenced by our use of cash for operating expenses to support the growth of our business. We have historically experienced negative cash flows from operating activities as we have developed our technology, expanded our business and built our infrastructure and this may continue in the future.

Net cash used in operating activities was $14.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The net cash used in operating activities primarily consisted of the net loss of $10.1 million offset by non-cash charges of $3.4 million of stock-based compensation expense and $1.2 million of depreciation and amortization expense. Cash used as a result of changes in operating assets and liabilities of $8.9 million was primarily due to a decrease in accrued compensation and benefits, other accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $5.6 million, and an increase in inventory of $2.3 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was $13.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The net cash used in operating activities primarily consisted of the net loss of $11.6 million offset by non-cash charges of $2.1 million of stock-based compensation expense and $1.0 million of depreciation and amortization expense. Cash used as a result of changes in operating assets and liabilities of $5.3 million was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable of $1.2 million, an increase in inventory of $1.4 million, an increase in accounts payable of $1.1 million, and an increase in accrued compensation and benefits, other accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $1.7 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was $5.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The net loss of $9.4 million includes non-cash charges of $1.3 million of stock-based compensation expense and $0.4 million of

depreciation and amortization. Cash used as a result of changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.3 million was primarily due to an increase in inventory of $1.8 million, a decrease in accounts payable of $1.3 million and a decrease in accrued compensation and benefits, other accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $0.3 million and an increase in accounts receivable of $0.5 million. In addition, $6.1 million increase due to changes in other noncurrent liabilities primarily related to our new lease.

Net Cash ~~Used in~~Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

Historically, our primary investing activities have consisted of capital expenditures for the purchase of capital equipment to support our expanding infrastructure and work force. We expect to continue to incur additional costs for capital expenditures related to these efforts in future periods.

Investing activities provided $2.4 million of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily related to $2.5 million in grant proceeds related to WP2.

We used $0.4 million of cash in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 for the purchase of property and equipment.

We used $5.9 million of cash in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 consisting of cash paid in for purchases of capital equipment to support our infrastructure. The significant increase was related to the leasehold improvements for our new headquarters, which is a component of our lease agreement.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Historically, we have financed our operations principally through private placements of our ~~convertible preferred~~ stock, ~~and~~ borrowings from credit facilities, ~~the sale of shares of our common stock in our IPO~~ and revenues from our commercial operations.

Financing activities provided $273.3 million of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily from $269.7 million in net proceeds from our underwritten public offering during the first quarter of 2021, and $3.1 million in proceeds from common stock option exercises.

Financing activities provided $0.9 million of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily from $0.5 million in proceeds from stock options exercised and $0.4 million in proceeds from stock purchases through our 2017 ESPP.

~~Financing activities provided $0.8 million~~

Capital Resources

Other than the third quarter of ~~cash during the three months ended March 31, 2019, which was primarily from proceeds of common stock option exercises of $0.5 million and stock purchases through our 2017 ESPP of $0.3 million.~~

~~Capital Resources~~

We2020, since inception, we have ~~not achieved profitability on a quarterly or annual basis since our inception, and we expect to continue to incur~~incurred net losses, ~~in the future. We~~and we also expect that our operating expenses will increase as we continue to increase our marketing efforts to drive adoption of our commercial products. Additionally, as a public company, we have incurred and will continue to incur significant audit, legal and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. Our liquidity requirements have historically consisted, and we expect that they will continue to consist, of sales and marketing expenses, research and development expenses, working capital, debt service and general corporate expenses.

We believe cash generated from commercial sales, our current cash and cash equivalents, and interest income we earn on these balances will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. In the future, we expect our operating and capital expenditures to increase as we increase headcount, expand our sales and marketing activities and grow our customer base. Our estimates of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations and the costs to support research and development and our sales and marketing activities are forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties and actual results could vary materially and negatively as a result of a number of factors, including the factors discussed in Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. We have based our estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including:

~~Table of Contents~~

●

market acceptance of our products, including our SP-X and HD-X instruments;

●

the cost and timing of establishing additional sales, marketing and distribution capabilities;

●

the cost of our research and development activities;

●

our ability to enter into collaborations in the future, and the success of any such collaborations;

●

the cost and timing of potential regulatory clearances or approvals that may be required in the future for our products;

●

the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; and

●

the effect of competing technological and market developments.

If the conditions for raising capital are favorable, we may seek to finance future cash needs through public or private equity or debt offerings or other financings. On ~~March 19, 2019,~~November 6, 2020, we filed ~~a universal~~an automatically effective shelf registration statement ~~on Form S-3, which was declared effective by~~with the SEC on May 10, 2019, and pursuant to which we registered for sale up to $200 million of any combination of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, rights, and/or units from time to time and at prices and on terms that we may determine. After the sales of shares of common stock in our “at-the-market” offering during June 2019, and the sale of 2,732,673 shares of common stock in our underwritten public offering in August 2019, approximately $81.3 millionSEC. Each issuance of securities ~~remained available for issuance~~ under ~~this~~the shelf registration ~~statement.~~statement will require the filing of a prospectus supplement identifying the amount and terms of securities to be issued. The registration statement does not limit the amount of securities that may be issued thereunder. Our ability to issue securities is subject to market conditions and other factors. This registration statement will ~~remain in effect up to May 10, 2022. We~~expire on November 6, 2023, three years after its date of effectiveness. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain additional funds on acceptable terms, or at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity or equity-linked securities, our stockholders may experience dilution. Future debt financing, if available, may involve covenants restricting our operations or our ability to incur additional debt. Any debt or equity financing that we raise may contain terms that are not favorable to us or our stockholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our technologies or our products, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. If we do not have or are not able to obtain sufficient funds, we may have to delay development or commercialization of our products. We also may have to reduce marketing, customer support or other resources devoted to our products or cease operations.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

As of March 31, ~~2020,~~2021, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments from those described under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have, during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under applicable ~~SEC rules~~.Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules.

Critical Accounting Policies, Significant ~~Judgements~~Judgments and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and the disclosure of assets and liabilities in our financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant assumptions used in the financial statements are the underlying assumptions used in revenue recognition, fair value of assets acquired and ~~stock-compensation.~~liabilities assumed in acquisitions, valuation allowances recorded against deferred tax assets, and valuation of inventory. We base estimates and assumptions on historical experience when available and on various factors that we determined to be reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our critical accounting policies and significant estimates that involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity are described under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies, Significant ~~Judgements~~Judgments and Estimates” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as disclosed therein, with the exception of our adoption of recent accounting pronouncements, as discussed below.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The shares were issued in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, because the offer and sale of the shares did not involve a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and other applicable requirements were met.
