NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 20202021 and 20192020

1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Business Description.

Precipio, Inc., and its subsidiaries, (collectively, “we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or “Precipio”) is a cancer diagnostics and reagent technology company providing diagnostic products, reagents and services to the oncology market. We have built and continue to develop a platform designed to eradicate the problem of misdiagnosis by harnessing the intellect, expertise and technologies developed withinin collaboration with academic institutions, and deliveringto deliver quality diagnostic information to physicians and their patients worldwide.

We operate a cancer diagnostic laboratory located in New Haven, Connecticut and have partnered with various academic institutions to capture the expertise, experience and technologies developed within academia to provide a better standard of cancer diagnostics and aim to solve the growing problem of cancer misdiagnosis. We

In support of our platform, we also operate a research and development facility in Omaha, Nebraska which focuses on the development of various technologies, among them our internally developed proprietary products IV-Cell and HemeScreen. To expand and accelerate our product offering capabilities to commercial laboratories, the Omaha facility was recently CLIA and CAP certified. Functioning side-by-side as a CLIA operating laboratory, the Omaha facility is designed to expand our proficiencies and know-how in transitioning R&D lab generated technology into a commercial laboratory environment.

Capitalizing on this strategy, during the end of the third quarter 2020, we transitioned our HemeScreen technology from the R&D facility to the commercial laboratory setting launching the HemeScreen Reagent Rental (HSRR) program. HSRR offers oncology practices and hospitals diagnostic reagent sets of the patent-pending HemeScreen technology at significantly lower costs, while reducing the test reporting time from seven (7) to ten (10) days down to one (1) day and improving patient care. HemeScreen tests various molecular markers required for the diagnosis of certain hematologic malignancies, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN). The HSRR program provides a turn-key test offering together with an option to lease-to-own diagnostic testing equipment from the Company. In most practice settings, such hematologic cancer tests are referenced out as both the cost of equipment and the cost of the diagnostic reagents are prohibitive. By utilizing our HSRR program, the customer can generate in-house testing revenues through reagent purchase contracts and economical lease-to-own rates instead of sending out the same tests to large commercial reference laboratories. The HSRR customer also benefits from obtaining faster results, thus ultimately providing better patient care.  During the first half of 2021, the Company began to recognize recurring revenues from its first few HSRR accounts.

During the fourth quarter of 2020 the Company announced it entered into an agreement with a South Korean company to market and distribute an FDA-authorized COVID-19 serology antibody test that has recently received EUA (Emergency Use Authorization). Distribution of the product will take place in the U.S. as well as in other markets worldwide.  The EUA allows the Company to distribute to all Point of Care facilities and any healthcare provider that has a National Provider Identifier (“NPI”) number.

The Company also holds an exclusive license to patented ICE-COLD-PCR or ICP, the patented(“ICP”) technology described further below, which we exclusively licensed from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc., or Dana-Farber, at Harvard University. The researchWe believe that such technology will provide additional services and development center focuses on the development of these technologies, which we believe will enable us to commercialize theseproducts directed at improving diagnostic outcomes and other technologies developedproviding physicians with our current and future academic partners. The facility in Omaha was also recently certified as a CLIA and CAP facility, and we have begun bringing in house several molecular tests that the Company had previously referred out to other laboratories. Our platform also connects patients, physicians and diagnostic experts residing within academic institutions.options for targeted therapies.

Joint Venture.

In April 2020, the Company formed a joint venture with Poplar Healthcare PLLC (“Poplar”), which we refer to as the “Joint Venture”. The Joint Venture was formed by the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Precipio

Table of Contents

Oncometrix LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“POC”), which was entered into as of April 11, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), by and among POC, Poplar, and Precipio SPV Inc. (“Precipio SPV”), a newly formed subsidiary of the Company, together with such other persons who from time to time become party to the Limited Liability Company Agreement by executing a counterpart signature page in accordance with the terms hereof. POC was formed as a limited liability company on April 2, 2020 in accordance with the statutes and laws of the State of Delaware relating to limited liability companies, including, without limitation, the Delaware Act, by the filing of a Certificate of Formation with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.companies. Precipio SPV was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 10, 2020 for the sole purpose of being a party to the Joint Venture.

Table of Contents

Under the terms of the Joint Venture, Precipio SPV has a 49% ownership interest in the Joint Venture, with Poplar having a 51 % ownership. Pursuant to the Limited Liability Company Agreement, Poplar, at any time, has the right to require Precipio SPV to purchase all, but not less than all, of Poplar’s shares in the Joint Venture (the “Poplar Put Right”). The purchase price for Poplar’s shares shall be $1.00 per share, or fifty-oneNaN dollars, and Precipio SPV would, therefore, become the sole 100% owner of the Joint Venture at the time the Poplar Put Right became effective. The Company has determined that it holds a variable interest in the Joint Venture and is the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity (“VIE”). See Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for further discussion regarding consolidation of variable interest entities.

The business purpose of the Joint Venture is to facilitate and capitalize on the combined capabilities, resources and healthcare industry relationships of its members by partnering, promoting and providing oncology services to office based physicians, hospitals and medical centers. Operational services of the Joint Venture are performed entirely by its members and employees of its members. Precipio SPV’s responsibilities include product and account management services, selling & marketing, laboratory diagnostic services and general & administrative services. Precipio SPV is entitled to a management fee for the services it provides. This management fee is established through service agreements which were executed in conjunction with the formation of the Joint Venture. Poplar receives a similar fee for the billing services that it provides.

Going Concern.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable for a going concern, which assume that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial operating losses and has used cash in its operating activities for the past several years. As of June 30, 2020,2021, the Company had a net loss of $5.4$4.4 million, negative working capital of $2.7$13.3 million and net cash used in operating activities of $3.6$3.0 million. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is dependent upon a combination of achieving its business plan, including generating additional revenue and avoiding potential business disruption due to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, and raising additional financing to meet its debt obligations and paying liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.

To meet its current and future obligations the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business and successfully achieve its business plan:

On March 26, 2020, the Company entered into a second purchase agreement (the “LP 2020 Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of common stock of the Company (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the term of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement.  The extent we rely on Lincoln Park asCompany terminated the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement effective June 14, 2021 and a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. Ass of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, we have already received $4.9approximately $8.8 million from the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement from the sale of 3,330,0004,980,000 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park from April 1, 2020 through June 14, 2021. See Note 8 Stockholders’ Equity for further discussion on Lincoln Park agreements;
During 2020, the Company received $0.8 million in funds from the PPP Loan and on February 11, 2021, the Company filed its application for loan forgiveness which was granted effective March 24, 2021. See Note 3 Long-Term Debt.; and

Table of Contents

On April 2, 2021, the Company entered into a sales agreement with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“AGP”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (the “Shares”), having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $22.0 million, to or through AGP, as sales agent (the “AGP Sales Agreement”), from time to time, in an “at the market offering” (as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the Shares (the “ATM Offering”). The Company is limited in the number of shares it can sell in the ATM Offering due to the offering limitations currently applicable to the Company under General Instruction I.B.6. of Form S-3 and the Company’s public float as of the applicable date of such sales, as well as the number of authorized and unissued shares available for issuance, in accordance with the terms of the AGP Sales Agreement. The offer and sales of our shares of Common Stock to or through AGP, will be made pursuant to the registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 (File No. 333-237445), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 13, 2020, for an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million. From April 2, 2021 through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, we have already received approximately $15.4 million in gross proceeds through the AGP Sales Agreement from the sale of issuance4,501,000 shares of this Form 10-Q,common stock, leaving the Company an additional $5.1$6.6 million to draw upon in the coming year; and

Loss Per Share.

Basic loss per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share includes shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants or conversion rights that have exercise or conversion prices below the market value of our common stock. Options, warrants and conversion rights pertaining to 1,815,5022,311,399 and 1,760,3361,815,502 shares of our common stock have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share at June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively, because the effect is anti-dilutive due to the net loss.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.

We evaluate any entity in which we are involved to determine if the entity is a VIE and if so, whether we hold a variable interest and are the primary beneficiary. We consolidate VIEs that are subject to assessment when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The process for determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE is to conclude whether we are a party to the VIE holding a variable interest that meets both of the following criteria: (1) has the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE, and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that in either case could potentially be significant to the VIE.

We have determined that we hold a variable interest in the Joint Venture, have the power to make significant operational decisions on behalf of the VIE and also have the obligation to absorb the majority of the losses from the VIE.  As such we have also determined that we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The following table presents information about the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of the Joint Venture which we consolidate and which are included on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Intercompany balances are eliminated in consolidation and not reflected in the following table.

Department of Economic and Community Development.

On January 8, 2018, the Company received gross proceeds of $400,000 when it entered into an agreement with the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development (“DECD”) by which the Company received a grant of $100,000 and a loan of $300,000 secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets (the “DECD 2018 Loan”). The DECD 2018 Loan is a ten-year loan due on December 31, 2027 and includes interest paid monthly at 3.25%.

Due to the economic impact of COVID-19, DECD offered financial relief to all businesses with certain loans, including the Company’s DECD 2018 Loan. The relief includes the option to defer all payments from April 1, 2020 to August 1, 2020 and no interest will accrue on the deferred payments between those dates. The deferred payments will be added to the end of the loan. The Company chose to defer its payments and the maturity date of the DECD 2018 Loan was extended to May 31, 2028. The payment deferral modification did not have a material impact on the Company’s cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020.flows.

Net debt issuance costs were approximately $23,000$20,000 and $24,000$22,000 at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, and are presented as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization for each of the nextfiveyears is expected to be approximately $3,000.

Financed Insurance Loan.

The Company finances certain of its insurance premiums (the “Financed Insurance Loans”). In July 2018, the Company financed $0.4 million with a 4.89% interest rate and fully paid off such loan as of July 2019. In July 2019, the Company financed $0.4 million with a 5.0% interest rate and will makemade monthly payments through May of 2020.  In July 2020, the Company financed less than $0.1 million with a 5.0% interest rate and made monthly payments through May 2021. As of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the Financed Insurance Loan’s outstanding balance of zero0 and $0.3less than $0.1 million, respectively, was included in current maturities of long-term debt in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.sheets. A corresponding prepaid asset was included in other current assets.

Settlement Agreement.

On September 21, 2018, the Company entered into a settlement and forbearance agreement with a creditor (the “September 2018 Settlement”) pursuant to which, the Company agreed to make monthly principal and interest payments to the creditor over a two year period, from November 1, 2018 to November 1, 2020, in full and final settlement of $0.1 million of indebtedness that was owed to the creditor on the date of the September 2018 Settlement. The settlement amount accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum until paid in full. The September 2018 Settlement outstanding

balance of less than $0.1 million was included in current maturities of long-term debt in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Paycheck Protection Program.

On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) evidencing an unsecured $787,200 loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”). The Paycheck Protection Program (or “PPP”) was established under the recently congressionally-approved Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The PPP Loan to the Company was made through Webster Bank, N.A.

 

The term of the PPP Loan is two years. The interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.00% and payments are deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP Loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. The Company will use the eight-week forgiveness period and will apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loan in accordance with the terms of the PPP, but no assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part. The Company believes it used all of the PPP Loan amount for qualifying expenses.

As of the date of issuance of this Report on Form 10-Q,December 31, 2020, using the eight-week forgiveness period, we havethe Company had incurred approximately $0.8 million in payroll, payroll related costs and other anticipated qualifying expenses.

The Promissory Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the Promissory Note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, and/or filing suit and obtaining judgment against the Company.

As of June 30, 2020, $0.4expenses with $0.6 million the PPP Loan’s outstanding balance was included in current maturities of long-term debt and $0.4$0.2 million was included in long-term debt in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

On February 11, 2021, the Company filed its application for loan forgiveness with Webster Bank and was subsequently notified by Webster Bank that effective March 24, 2021 the PPP Loan, plus accrued interest, was considered fully forgiven. As a result, the Company recorded a gain on forgiveness of debt of $0.8 million in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Convertible Bridge Notes.

On April 20, 2018, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “2018 Note Agreement”) with certain investors, (the “April 2018 Investors”), as amended on November 29, 2018 (the “Amendment Agreement”) and amended on April 16, 2019 (“Amendment No.2 Agreement”). During 2018, pursuant to the 2018 Note Agreement,The Company also entered into a securities purchase agreement on May 14, 2019. In connection with these securities purchase agreements, the Company issued approximately $4.5 million in Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Bridge Notes”) along with warrants.

Table of Contents

On April 16, 2019, the Company entered into the Amendment No.2 Agreement which provided the Company with approximately $900,000 of gross proceeds for the issuance of notes with an aggregate principal of $989,011 (the “April 2019 Bridge Notes”) together with applicable warrants with substantially the same termsduring 2018 and conditions as the previously issued Bridge Notes and related warrants. The 9% discount associated with the April 2019 Bridge Notes was approximately $89,000 and was recorded as a debt discount. In connection with the April 2019 Bridge Note issuances, the Company issued to the investors 147,472 warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company with a five year term and exercise price of $5.40 (the “April 2019 Warrants”). The April 2019 Warrants had an initial value of approximately $1.0 million at the date of issuance and were recorded as a liability with an offset to debt discount. See Note 9 – Fair Value for further discussion. The April 2019 Bridge Notes were issued to investors that previously participated in the 2018 Note Agreement. 

The conversion price of the April 2019 Bridge Notes shall be equal to the greater of $3.75 or $0.75 above the closing bid price of our common stock on the date prior to the original issue date. In the event the notes are not paid in full prior to 180 days after the original issue date, the conversion price shall be equal to 80% of the lowest volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) in the 10 trading days prior to the date of the notice of conversion, but in no event below the floor price of $2.25.

The Company reviewed the conversion option of the April 2019 Bridge Notes and determined that there was a beneficial conversion feature with a value of approximately $0.9 million which was recorded as a debt discount with an offset to additional paid in capital at the time of the Amendment No.2 Agreement. The Company also reviewed the redemption features of the April 2019 Bridge Notes and determined that there is a redemption feature (the “Bridge Notes Redemption Feature”) that qualifies as an embedded derivative. The Company performed a valuation at the time of issuance which resulted in zero value, at that time, due to the high value of the conversion feature and a limited upside from the redemption premium.

Debt discounts and debt issuance costs related to the April 2019 Bridge Notes totaled $2.0 million. Since the costs exceeded the $1.0 million face amount of the debt at issuance, the Company recorded $1.0 million of debt discount and debt issuance costs as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet with the excess $1.0 million expensed as a loss on issuance of convertible notes in the consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Pursuant to the Amendment No.2 Agreement, previously issued warrants were amended such that the exercise price of such warrants was amended from $7.50 to $5.40 and any warrant that had a one-year term was amended to have a five-year term. The Company reviewed the amendments to the warrants and determined that they will be treated as a modification of an outstanding equity instrument at the time of the Amendment No.2 Agreement. Management calculated the change in fair value due to the modifications to be an expense of approximately $1.1 million which is included in loss on modification of warrants in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

On May 14, 2019, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which, the Company was provided with $1,000,000 of gross proceeds for the issuance of notes with an aggregate principal of $1,098,901 (the “May 2019 Bridge Notes”) together with applicable warrants, with substantially the same terms and conditions as the previously issued Bridge Notes and related warrants. The 9% discount associated with the May 2019 Bridge Notes was approximately $99,000 and was recorded as a debt discount. In connection with the May 2019 Bridge Note issuances, the Company issued to the investors 154,343 warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company with a five year term and exercise price of $9.56 (the “May 2019 Warrants”). The May 2019 Warrants had an initial value of approximately $0.9 million at the date of issuance and were recorded as a liability with an offset to debt discount. See Note 9 – Fair Value for further discussion. The May 2019 Bridge Notes were issued to investors that previously participated in the 2018 Note Agreement. 

The conversion price of the May 2019 Bridge Notes is $7.12, provided that a) in the event the notes are not paid in full prior to 180 days after the original issue date or b) upon a registration statement (as defined in the purchase agreement) being declared effective, whichever occurs earlier, the conversion price shall be equal to 80% of the lowest VWAP in the 10 trading days prior to the date of the notice of conversion, but in no event below the floor price of $2.25.

The Company reviewed the conversion option of the May 2019 Bridge Notes and determined that there was a beneficial conversion feature with a value of approximately $0.9 million which was recorded as a debt discount with an offset to additional paid in capital at the time of issuance of the May 2019 Bridge Notes. The May 2019 Bridge Notes also contain the Bridge Notes Redemption Feature and the Company performed a valuation at the time of issuance which resulted in zero value, at that time, due to the high value of the conversion feature and a limited upside from the redemption premium.

Debt discounts and debt issuance costs related to the May 2019 Bridge Notes totaled $2.0 million. Since the costs exceeded the $1.1 million face amount of the debt, the Company recorded $1.1 million of debt discount and debt issuance costs as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet with the excess $0.9 million expensed as a loss on issuance of convertible notes in the consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

On March 26, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment agreement (the “March 2020 Amendment”) amending the terms of that certain Amendment No. 2 Agreement dated April 16, 2019 and the securities purchase agreement dated May 14, 2019.  As a result of the March 2020 Amendment, (i) the maturity date of the Bridge Notes issued in April 2019 (the “April 2019 Bridge Notes”) and the Bridge Notes and theissued in May 2019 (the “May 2019 Bridge NotesNotes”) was extended three months from April 16, 2020 to July 16, 2020, (ii) the floor price at which conversions may

occur under the April 2019 Bridge Notes and the May 2019 Bridge Notes was amended from $2.25 to $0.40, and (iii) guaranteed interest on the April 2019 Bridge Notes and the May 2019 Bridge Notes was amended from twelve months to eighteen months.

The Company reviewed the modifications and concluded that the March 2020 Amendment willwould be treated as an extinguishment of the related April 2019 Bridge Notes and May 2019 Bridge Notes. The difference between the carrying value of the notes just prior to modification (the “Pre-modification Debt”) and the fair value of the notes just after modification (the “Post-modification Debt”) would be recorded as a gain or loss on extinguishment in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company removed the carrying value of the Pre-modification Debt which included $1.0 million of unamortized debt discounts and beneficial conversion features of $0.5 million. The Company calculated the fair value of the Post-modification Debt to be $2.6 million. The Company reviewed whether or not a beneficial conversion feature existed on the Post-modification Debt but the calculation resulted in zero intrinsic value so no new beneficial conversion feature was recorded. Management also reviewed the Bridge Notes Redemption Feature of the post-modification notes but their fair value was zero so no derivative liability was recorded at the time of modification, however this will be reassessed at the end of each reporting period. As a result, the Company recorded a debt premium on the Post-modification Debtpost-modification debt of $0.8 million and a loss on extinguishment of convertible notes of $1.2 million in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and 2019, $1.8 million and $2.1$2.2 million, respectively, of bridge notes, plus interest, were converted into 3,480,148 and 756,588 shares of common stock of the Company, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, $2.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of bridge notes, plus interest, were converted into 3,908,145 and 1,776,018 shares of common stock of the Company, respectively.

As a result of the bridge note conversions, the Company wrote off approximately $0.4 million of derivative liability, with an offset to additional paid-in capital, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

LEGAL AND REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT

The healthcare industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirement, reimbursement for patient services and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Government activity has increased with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations by healthcare providers.

Violations of these laws and regulations could result in expulsion from government healthcare programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. Management believes that the Company is in compliance with fraud and abuse regulations, as well as other applicable government laws and regulations. While no material regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions unknown or unasserted at this time.

7. LEASES

On January 1, 2019, the Company recorded initial ROU assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities of approximately $750,000 and a reversal of deferred rent and prepaid expenses of approximately $6,000 resulting in no cumulative effect adjustment upon adoption of Topic 842. The Company leases administrative facilities and laboratory equipment through operating lease agreements. In addition we rent various equipment used in our diagnostic lab and in our administrative offices through finance lease arrangements. Our operating leases include both lease (e.g., fixed payments including rent) and non-lease components (e.g., common area or other maintenance costs). The facility leases include one1 or more options to renew, from 1 to 5 years or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is typically at our sole discretion, therefore, the renewals to extend the lease terms are not included in our ROU assets and lease liabilities as they are not reasonably certain of exercise. We regularly

16

Table of Contents

evaluate the renewal options and, when they are reasonably certain of exercise, we include the renewal period in our lease term.  As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments.

Operating leases result in the recognition of ROU assets and operating lease liabilities on the balance sheet. ROU assets represent our right to use the leased asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The primary leases we enter into with initial terms of 12 months or less are for equipment.

Upon the adoption of Topic 842, our accounting forThe Company also recognizes ROU assets from finance leases previously referredin connection with its HSRR program. For certain customers in the HSRR program, the Company leases diagnostic testing equipment and then subleases the equipment to the customer.  Finance lease ROU assets and finance lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date, and at the sublease commencement date the finance lease ROU asset is derecognized and is recorded as capitalcost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Derecognized finance lease ROU assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were 0 and less than $0.1 million, respectively. There were 0 finance lease ROU asset transactions during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.  Where Precipio is the lessor, customers lease diagnostic testing equipment from the Company with the transfer of ownership to the customer at the end of the lease term at no additional cost.  For these contracts, the Company accounts for the arrangements as sales-type leases. The lease asset for sales-type leases remains substantially unchanged from prior guidance.

The Company is limited in the number of shares it can sell in the ATM Offering due to the offering limitations currently applicable to the Company under General Instruction I.B.6. of Form S-3 and the Company’s public float as of the applicable date of such sales, as well as the number of authorized and unissued shares available for issuance, in accordance with the terms of the AGP Sales Agreement.

Under the AGP Sales Agreement, Shares may be sold by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering.” AGP will also be able to sell shares of Common Stock by any other method permitted by law, including in negotiated transactions with the Company’s prior written consent. Upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the AGP Sales Agreement, AGP is required to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, applicable state and federal law, rules and regulations, and the rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market to sell the Shares from time to time based upon the Company’s instructions, including any price, time or size limits specified by the Company. AGP is not under any obligation to purchase any of the Shares on a principal basis pursuant to the AGP Sales Agreement, except as otherwise agreed by AGP and the Company in writing and expressly set forth in a placement notice. AGP’s obligations to sell the Shares under the AGP Sales Agreement are subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including customary closing conditions. The Company is not obligated to make any sales of Shares under the AGP Sales Agreement and any determination by the Company to do so will be dependent, among other things, on market conditions and the Company’s capital raising needs.

The Company has agreed to pay AGP a cash fee of 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of 1,810,000the Shares on the Company’s behalf pursuant to the AGP Sales Agreement.

In addition, the Company has provided AGP with customary indemnification and contribution rights. The Company has also agreed to reimburse AGP for certain specified expenses, including the expenses of counsel to AGP. The offering of the Shares pursuant to the AGP Sales Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the AGP Sales Agreement by AGP or the Company, as permitted therein.

Series B Preferred Stock.

The Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) with the State of Delaware, which designates 6,900 shares of our preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 per share and a par value of $0.01 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock includes a beneficial ownership blocker but has no dividend rights (except to the extent dividends are also paid on the common stock). On August 28, 2017, the Company completed an underwritten public offering (the “August 2017 Offering”) consisting of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock and warrants.

The conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock contains a down round feature. The Company will recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. At that time, the effect would be treated as a deemed dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in our basic earnings per share calculation.

The March 2020 Amendment, see Note 4 – Convertible Notes, triggered the down round feature of the Series B Preferred Stock and, as a result, the conversion price of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was automatically adjusted from $2.25 per share to $0.40 per share. In connection with the down round adjustment, the Company calculated an incremental beneficial conversion feature of approximately $3.3 million which was recognized as a deemed dividend at time of the down round adjustment (“Deemed Dividend A”).

There were no0 conversions of Series B Preferred Stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively. At June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the Company had 6,900 shares of Series B Preferred Stock designated and issued and 47 shares of Series B outstanding.

Based on the holdersstated value of $1,000 per share and a conversion price of $0.40 per share, the Common Stock, and if the assetsoutstanding shares of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the entire assets to be distributed to the holders shall be ratably distributed among the holders in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares. If all amounts were paid in full; and thereafter, the holders shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Corporation the same amount that a holder of Common Stock would receive if theSeries B Preferred Stock at June 30, 2021 were fully converted to Common Stock which amount shall be paid pari passu with all holdersconvertible into 117,500 shares of Common Stock.

9. FAIR VALUE

FASB guidance on fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements for our financial assets and liabilities, as well as for

29


other assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

FASB guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price assets or liabilities. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2—Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets; and

Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions and best estimate of what inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Common Stock Warrant Liabilities.

Certain of our issued and outstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock do not qualify to be treated as equity and, accordingly, are recorded as a liability. We are required to record these instruments at fair value at each reporting date and changes are recorded as a non-cash adjustment to earnings. The gains or losses included in earnings are reported in other income (expense) in our condensed consolidated statementstatements of operations.

2016 Warrant Liability

The Company has a warrant liability related to warrants issued in January 2016 (the “2016 Warrant Liability”) and it represents the fair value of such warrants, of which, 357 warrants remain outstanding aswere settled for cash of June 30, 2020.

In March 2018, a portionapproximately $0.1 million in January 2021. The balance of the 2016 Warrant Liability was part0 as of a settlement agreement pursuant to a lawsuit that was filed against the Company by one of the warrant holders. As such, approximately $0.4 million of the warrant liability, representing 1,347 warrants, was canceled on the date of the settlement agreement.June 30, 2021.

The 2016 Warrant Liability is considered a Level 3 financial instrument and was valued using the Monte Carlo methodology.Black Scholes model. As of June 30,December 31, 2020, assumptions and inputs used in the valuation of the 2016 Warrant Liability include: remaining life to maturity of 0.5 years;less than one month; annual volatility of 119%135%; and a risk-free interest rate of 0.18%0.08%. As

25

Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities

During 2018 and 2019, the Company issued warrants in connection with the issuance of Bridge Notes. All of these warrants issuances were classified as warrant liabilities (the “Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities”). See Note 4 - Convertible Notes for further discussion.

The Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities are considered Level 3 financial instruments and were valued using the Black Scholes model. As of June 30, 2021, assumptions used in the valuation of the Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities include: remaining life to maturity of 0.8 to 2.9 years; annual volatility of 172% to 194%; and risk free rate of 0.07% to 0.46%. As of December 31, 2020, assumptions used in the valuation of the Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities include: remaining life to maturity of 1.811.3 to 3.873.4 years; annual volatility of 123%162% to 159%201%; and risk free rate of 0.16%0.10% to 0.24%0.17%.

Derivative Liabilities.

Certain of our issued and outstanding convertible notes contain features that are considered derivative instruments and are required to bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for separately as derivative liabilities. The estimated fair value of the derivatives will be remeasured at each reporting date and any change in estimated fair value of the derivatives will be recorded as non-cash adjustments to earnings. The gains or losses included in earnings are reported in other income (expense) in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Bridge Notes Redemption Feature

Valuations for derivatives related to Bridge Note redemption features were performed using the “with and without” approach, whereby the Bridge Notes were valued both with the embedded derivative and without.

Stock Options.

The Company accounts for all stock-based compensation payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee stock options, at fair value at the date of grant and expenses the benefit in operating expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations over the service period of the awards. The Company records the expense for stock-based compensation awards subject to performance-based milestone vesting over the remaining service period when management determines that achievement of the milestone is probable based on the expected satisfaction of the performance conditions as of the reporting date. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires various assumptions including estimating stock price volatility, expected life of the stock option, risk free interest rate and estimated forfeiture rate.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, the Company granted stock options to purchase up to 325,050597,347 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $2.13.$2.17.

11. SALES SERVICE REVENUE, NET AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from contracts with customers”

The Company follows the guidance of ASC 606 for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers to transfer goods and services. The Company performed a comprehensive review of its existing revenue arrangements following the five-step model:

Step 1: Identification of the contract with the customer. Sub-steps include determining the customer in a contract; Initial contract identification and determine if multiple contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single transaction.

27

Step 2: Identify the performance obligation in the contract. Sub-steps include identifying the promised goods and services in the contract and identifying which performance obligations within the contract are distinct.

33


Step 3: Determine the transaction price. Sub-steps include variable consideration, constraining estimates of variable consideration, the existence of a significant financing component in the contract, noncash consideration and consideration payable to a customer.

Step 4: Allocate transaction price. Sub-steps include assessing the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the customer.

Step 5: Satisfaction of performance obligations. Sub-steps include ascertaining the point in time when an asset is transferred to the customer and the customer obtains control of the asset upon which time the Company recognizes revenue.

Nature of Contracts and Customers

The Company’s contracts and related performance obligations are similar for its customers and the sales process for all customers starts upon the receipt of requisition forms from the customers for patient diagnostic testing and the execution of contracts for biomarker testing and clinical research. Payment terms for the services provided are 30 days, unless separately negotiated.

Diagnostic testing

Control of the laboratory testing services is transferred to the customer at a point in time. As such, the Company recognizes revenue for laboratory testing services at a point in time based on the delivery method (web-portal access or fax) for the patient’s laboratory report, per the contract.

Clinical research grants

Control of the clinical research services are transferred to the customer over time. The Company will recognize revenue utilizing the “effort based” method, measuring its progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation.

Biomarker testing and clinical project services

Control of the biomarker testing and clinical project services are transferred to the customer over time. The Company utilizes an “effort based” method of assessing performance and measures progress towards satisfaction of the performance obligation based upon the delivery of results.

The Company generates revenue from the provision of diagnostic testing provided to patients, biomarker testing provided to bio-pharma customers and clinical research grants funded by both bio-pharma customers and government health programs.

Reagents and other diagnostic products

Control of reagents and other diagnostic products are transferred to the customer at a point in time and, as such, the Company recognizes these revenues at a point in time based on the delivery method. These revenues include revenues from reagent sets for our HSRR program, COVID-19 antibody tests and other product sales and are included in other revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Equipment leasing

The Company accounts for sales-type leases within the scope of ASC 842, Leases, as ASC 606 specifically excludes leases from its guidance. The sales-type leases result in the derecognition of the underlying asset, the recognition of profit or loss on the sale, and the recognition of an investment in leased asset.  Revenue from sales-type leases is

3428


recognized upfront on the commencement date of the lease, and is included in other revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, revenue from sales-type leases was 0 and less than $0.1 million, respectively. There was 0 revenue from sales-type leases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Disaggregation of Revenues by Transaction Type

We operate in one business segment and, therefore, the results of our operations are reported on a consolidated basis for purposes of segment reporting, consistent with internal management reporting. Service revenue, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and 2019 werewas as follows (prior-period amounts are not adjusted under the modified-retrospective method of adoption):follows:

Revenue from the Medicare and Medicaid programs account for a portion of the Company’s patient diagnostic service revenue. Laws and regulations governing those programs are extremely complex and subject to interpretation. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in the near term.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, 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. The Company does not typically enter arrangements where multiple contracts can be combined as the terms regarding services are generally found within a single agreement/requisition form. The Company derives its revenues from threethe following types of transactions: diagnostic testing (“Diagnostic”), and clinical research grants from state and federal research programs, and other revenues from the Company’s ICP technology and bio-pharma projects encompassing genetic diagnostics (collectively “Biomarker”)., revenues from clinical research grants from state and federal research programs and diagnostic product sales, including revenues from equipment leases and reagent sales associated with our HSRR program.

Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue, or unearned revenue, refers to advance payments for products or services that are to be delivered in the future. The Company records such prepayment of unearned revenue as a liability, as revenue that has not yet been earned, but represents products or services that are owed to a customer.

Contractual Allowances and Adjustments

We are reimbursed by payers for services we provide. Payments for services covered by payers average less than billed charges. We monitor revenue and receivables from payers and record an estimated contractual allowance for certain revenue and receivable balances as of the revenue recognition date to properly account for anticipated differences between amounts estimated in our billing system and amounts ultimately reimbursed by payers. Accordingly, the total revenue and receivables reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements are recorded at the amounts expected to be received from these payers. For service revenue, the contractual allowance is estimated based on several criteria, including unbilled claims, historical trends based on actual claims paid, current contract and reimbursement terms and changes in customer base and payer/product mix. The billing functions for the remaining portion of our revenue are contracted and fixed fees for specific services and are recorded without an allowance for contractual discounts. The following table presents our revenues initially recognized for each associated payer class during the three and six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides for a general allowance for collectability of services when recording net sales. The Company has adopted the policy of recognizing net sales to the extent it expects to collect that amount. Reference is made to FASB 954-605-45-5 and ASU 2011-07, Health Care Entities: Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debt, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The change in the allowance for doubtful accounts is directly related to the increase in patient service revenues. The following table presents our reported revenues net of the collection allowance and adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019.

Overview

We are a cancer diagnostics and reagent technology company providing diagnostic products, reagents and services to the oncology market. We have built and continue to develop a platform designed to eradicate the problem of misdiagnosis by harnessing the intellect, expertise and technologies developed withinin collaboration with academic institutions, and delivering quality diagnostic information to physicians and their patients worldwide. We operate a cancer diagnostic laboratory located in New Haven, Connecticut and have partnered with various academic institutions to capture the expertise, experience and technologies developed within academia to provide a better standard of cancer diagnostics and aim to solve the growing problem of cancer misdiagnosis. WeIn support of this platform, we also operate a research and development facility in Omaha, Nebraska which focuses on the development of various technologies, among them our internally developed proprietary products IV-Cell HemeScreen and HemeScreen. To expand our product offering capabilities, the Omaha facility was recently CLIA and CAP certified in order to process a variety of commercial molecular tests previously referenced out and to further expand our capabilities and know-how in transitioning R&D lab generated technology into a commercial laboratory environment.

The Company also holds an exclusive license to patented ICE-COLD-PCR or ICP, the patented(“ICP”) technology described further below, which we exclusively licensed from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc., or Dana-Farber, at Harvard University. The researchWe believe that such technology will provide additional

The facility in Omaha was also recently certified as a CLIA and CAP facility, and we have begun bringing in house several molecular tests that the Company had previously referenced out to other laboratories. Our platform also connects patients, physicians and diagnostic experts residing within academic institutions.options for targeted therapies.

In April 2020, we formed thea Joint Venture with Poplar. Poplar provides specialized laboratory testing services to a nationwide client base of gastroenterologists, dermatologists, oncologists, urologists, gynecologists and their patients. The business purpose of the Joint Venture is to facilitate and capitalize on the combined capabilities, resources and healthcare industry relationships of its members by partnering, promoting and providing oncology services to office based physicians, hospitals and medical centers. Under the terms of the Joint Venture, Precipio SPV has a 49% ownership interest in the Joint Venture, with Poplar having a 51 %51% ownership. We have determined that we hold a variable interest in the Joint Venture and that we are the primary beneficiary of the Joint Venture. Due to this determination, we consolidate the Joint Venture. See Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for further discussion.

Nasdaq ComplianceBusiness Activities – HemeScreen

On April 29, 2020, Precipio, Inc. received written notice (the “Notice”The HemeScreen Reagent Program (“HSSR”) offers oncology practices and hospitals diagnostic reagent sets of our patent-pending HemeScreen technology at significantly lower costs, while reducing the test reporting time from 7 to 10 days down to 1 day and improving patient care.  The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based onHSRR program provides a turn-key test offering together with an option to lease-to-own diagnostic testing equipment from the closing bid priceCompany.  In most practice settings, such hematologic cancer tests are referenced out as both the cost of equipment and the cost of the Company’s common stock fordiagnostic reagents are prohibitive.  By utilizing our HSSR program the preceding 30 consecutive business days (March 17, 2020customer can generate in-house testing revenues through reagent purchase contracts and economical lease-to-own rates.  Customers can generate in-house revenues and profits instead of sending out the same tests to April 28, 2020),large commercial reference laboratories.  The HSSR customer also benefits from obtaining faster results, thus ultimately providing better patient care.  During the first half of 2021, the Company was not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”), as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Notice had no immediate effect on the listing of Precipio’s common stock and the Company had until December 28, 2020began to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

On June 29, 2020, the Company received a letterrecognize recurring revenues from Nasdaq stating that because the Company’s shares had a closing bid price at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive business days, the Company’s stock had regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, and that the matter is now closed.its first few HSRR accounts.

Business Activities – COVID Testing

On July 30, 2020,May 3, 2021, the Company announced that it entered into an agreement with ADS Biotec, a US company based in Omaha, Nebraska,expanded access to distribute its FDA-authorized COVID-19 serologyrapid antibody tests that recently received EUA (Emergency Use Authorization). Distribution of the product will take place in the US as well as in other markets worldwide.

Going Concern

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable for a going concern, which assume that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial operating losses and has used cash in its operating activities for the past several years. As of June 30, 2020,2021, the Company had a net loss of $5.4$4.4 million, negative working capital of $2.7$13.3 million and net cash used in operating activities of $3.6$3.0 million. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is dependent upon a combination of achieving its business plan, including generating additional revenue and avoiding potential business disruption due to COVID-19, and raising additional financing to meet its debt obligations and paying liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.

To meet its current and future obligations the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business and successfully achieve its business plan:

On March 26, 2020, the Company entered into a second purchase agreement with Lincoln Park (the “LP 2020 Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of common stock of the Company (subject

(subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the term of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement. The extent we rely on Lincoln ParkCompany terminated the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement effective June 14, 2021 and as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. As of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, we have already received $4.9approximately $8.8 million from the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement from the sale of 3,330,0004,980,000 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park from April 1, 2020 through June 14, 2021. See Note 8 Stockholders’ Equity for further discussion on Lincoln Park agreements;
During 2020, the Company received $0.8 million in funds from the PPP Loan and on February 11, 2021, the Company filed its application for loan forgiveness which was granted effective March 24, 2021. See Note 3 Long-Term Debt.; and
On April 2, 2021, the Company entered into a sales agreement with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“AGP”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (the “Shares”), having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $22.0 million, to or through AGP, as sales agent (the “AGP Sales Agreement”), from time to time, in an “at the market offering” (as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the Shares (the “ATM Offering”). The Company is limited in the number of shares it can sell in the ATM Offering due to the offering limitations currently applicable to the Company under General Instruction I.B.6. of Form S-3 and the Company’s public float as of the applicable date of such sales, as well as the number of authorized and unissued shares available for issuance, in accordance with the terms of the AGP Sales Agreement. The offer and sales of our shares of Common Stock to or through AGP, will be made pursuant to the registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 (File No. 333-237445), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 13, 2020, for an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million. From April 2, 2021 through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, we have already received approximately $15.4 million in gross proceeds through the AGP Sales Agreement from the sale of issuance4,501,000 shares of this Form 10-Q,common stock, leaving the Company an additional $5.1$6.6 million to draw upon in the coming year; and
The Company filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 on March 27, 2020, as amended on April 9, 2020, to register an indeterminate number of shares of common stock and preferred stock, such indeterminate principal amount of debt securities and such indeterminate number of warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or debt securities as shall have an aggregate initial offering price not to exceed $50 million. This registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on April 13, 2020 and allows the Company, from time to time, to offer up to $50 million of any combination of the securities described in the Form S-3 in one or more offerings. In orderavailable for the Company to utilize the effective S-3, it will have to file subsequent prospectus supplement(s) with regardfuture sales pursuant to the securities it will offer, as applicable from time to time. As of the date of issuance of this Form 10-Q, no subsequent prospectus supplements to this effect have been filed by the Company.AGP Sales Agreement.

Notwithstanding the aforementioned circumstances, there remains substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully achieve its initiatives summarized above in order to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern as a result of the outcome of this uncertainty.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and no evaluation of controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2020.2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

CPA Global provides us with certain patent management services. On February 6, 2017, CPA Global claimed that we owed approximately $0.2 million for certain patent maintenance services rendered. CPA Global has not filed claims against us in connection with this allegation. A liability of less than $0.1 million has been recorded and is reflected in accounts payable within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.

On February 17, 2017, Jesse Campbell (“Campbell”) filed a lawsuit individually and on behalf of others similarly situated against us in the District Court for the District of Nebraska alleging we had a materially incomplete and misleading proxy relating to a potential merger and that the merger agreement’s deal protection provisions deter superior offers.  On June 21, 2019, the parties filed a stipulation of settlement, in which defendants are released from all claims and expressly deny that that they have committed any act or omission giving rise to any liability.  The stipulation includes a settlement payment of $1.95 million.  On July 10, 2019, the Court entered an order preliminarily approving the settlement.  During the third quarter of 2019, both the Company and its insurance company paid their respective amounts of $0.27 million and $1.68 million, respectively, to an escrow account where the funds were held until they were approved for distribution. On June 3, 2020, the Court approved the settlement and entered an order of dismissal. As of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, the escrow funds have been released and this matter is closed.2020.

LEGAL AND REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT

The healthcare industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirement, reimbursement for patient services and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Government activity has increased with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations by healthcare providers.

Violations of these laws and regulations could result in expulsion from government healthcare programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. Management believes that the Company is in compliance with fraud and abuse regulations, as well as other applicable government laws and regulations. While no material regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions unknown or unasserted at this time.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

As disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, there are a number of risks and uncertainties that may have a material effect on the operating results of our business and our financial condition. The following information updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

We have incurred losses since our inception and expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We cannot be certain that we will achieve or sustain profitability.

We have incurred losses since our inception and expect to incur losses in the future. As of June 30, 2020,2021, we had a net loss of $5.4$4.4 million, negative working capital of $2.7$13.3 million and net cash used in operating activities of $3.6$3.0 million. To date, we have experienced negative cash flow from development of our diagnostic technology, as well as

Table of Contents

from the costs associated with establishing a laboratory and building a sales force to market our products and services. We expect to incur substantial net losses for the foreseeable future to further develop and commercialize our diagnostic technology. We also expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will continue to increase due to the additional costs associated with market development activities and expanding our staff to sell and support our products. Our ability to achieve or, if achieved, sustain profitability is based on numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the market acceptance of our products, competitive product development and our market penetration and margins. We may never be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or, if achieved, sustain profitability.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with further development and commercialization of our diagnostic technology and any future tests, we are unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if ever. We may never become profitable and you may never receive a return on an investment in our securities. An investor in our securities must carefully consider the substantial challenges, risks and uncertainties inherent

in the development and commercialization of tests in the medical diagnostic industry. We may never successfully commercialize our diagnostic technology or any future tests, and our business may fail.

We willmay need to raise substantial additional capital to commercialize our diagnostic technology, and our failure to obtain funding when needed may force us to delay, reduce or eliminate our product development programs or collaboration efforts or force us to restrict or cease operations.

As of June 30, 2020,2021, our cash balance was $0.4$15.7 million and our working capital was approximately negative $2.7$13.3 million. Due to our recurring losses from operations and the expectation that we will continue to incur losses in the future, we willmay be required to raise additional capital to complete the development and commercialization of our current product candidates and to pay off our obligations. To date, to fund our operations and develop and commercialize our products, we have relied primarily on equity and debt financings. WhenIn future periods, when we seek additional capital, we may seek to sell additional equity and/or debt securities or to obtain a credit facility, which we may not be able to do on favorable terms, or at all. Our ability to obtain additional financing will be subject to a number of factors, including market conditions, our operating performance and investor sentiment. If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of one or more of our product candidates, restrict or cease our operations or obtain funds by entering into agreements on unattractive terms.

If we cannot continue to satisfy NASDAQ listing maintenance requirements and other rules, our securities may be delisted, which could negatively impact the price of our securities. 

Although our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, we may be unable to continue to satisfy the listing maintenance requirements and rules. If we are unable to satisfy The NASDAQ Stock Market, or NASDAQ, criteria for maintaining our listing, our securities could be subject to delisting.

On April 29, 2020, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying us that for the past 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price per share of our common stock was below the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), or the Bid Price Rule. As a result, we were notified by Nasdaq that we were not in compliance with the Bid Price Rule. Nasdaq provided us until December 28, 2020 to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.

On June 29, 2020, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq stating that because the Company’s shares had a closing bid price at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive business days, the Company’s stock had regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, and that the matter is now closed.

We are currently in compliance with NASDAQ listing requirements, however, if NASDAQ were to delist our securities, we could face significant consequences, including:

a limited availability for market quotations for our securities;
reduced liquidity with respect to our securities;

49


Table of Contents

a determination that our common stock is a “penny stock,” which will require brokers trading in our common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in reduced trading;
activity in the secondary trading market for our common stock;
limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and
a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

In addition, we would no longer be subject to NASDAQ rules, including rules requiring us to have a certain number of independent directors and to meet other corporate governance standards

We face risks related to health pandemics and other widespread outbreaks of contagious disease, including the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, which could significantly disrupt our operations and impact our financial results.

Our business could be disrupted and materially adversely affected by the recent outbreak of COVID-19. In December 2019, an outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a strain of novel coronavirus, COVID-19, began in China. As of July 2020,June 2021, that outbreak has led to numerous confirmed cases worldwide, including in the United States. The outbreak and government measures taken in response have also had a significant impact, both direct and indirect, on businesses and commerce. Global health concerns, such as coronavirus, could also result in social, economic, and labor instability in the countries in which we or the third parties with whom we engage operate.

The spread of COVID-19 has created a worldwide humanitarian and economic crisis. The events we are living through are in many ways unprecedented, with large-scale quarantines, border closings, school closings, and physical distancing.  Governments and communities have been jolted into action to “flatten the curve.”  As an organization we have accelerated our actions to protect employees, customers and suppliers.

The progression of the outbreak and its effects on our business and operations are uncertain. While we can only estimate the financial impacts to our business, based on current data, we have experienced business interruptions in certain urban markets that continue to range from 30% to 85%.  With the understanding that it is extremely difficult to project the full and ongoing impact of state-by-state quarantine and shelter-in-place orders, we anticipate that such rules and restrictions on businesses will continue through the second quarter of 20202021 and quite possibly beyond, in various degrees, as the country re-opens state by state, county by county and city by city. Returning to normalcy is conditioned on many factors surrounding the control and or eradication of COVID-19.  As such, we are unable to provide additional insight on the impact to our business at this time.

 

Going forward, we expect that challenges to our business will continue.  We have been and will continue to be prudent in managing through this economic crisis.  Digital connectivity is now fundamental to the continuity of our business operations. We continually engage our employees and customers in keeping safe.  We monitor adherence to governmental guidelines.  We have employed remote work where possible.  In this unchartered time, we recognize the need for frequent and transparent communication to all parties.  As necessary, we will provide additional information related to this economic condition, including the impact to our future operating results due to downturns in global economies and financial markets.

We face risks related to the Paycheck Protection Program loan (PPP Loan), which could negatively impact our financial position.

On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into the Promissory Note evidencing an unsecured $787,200 loan under the PPP. The PPP was established under the recently congressionally-approved CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The PPP Loan to the Company is being made through Webster Bank, N.A.

The term of the PPP Loan is two years. The interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.00% and payments are deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP Loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. The Company intends to use all or a significant majority of the PPP Loan amount for qualifying expenses but no assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the

PPP Loan in whole or in part. If forgiveness is not granted, the PPP Loan, in whole or in part, will need to be repaid by the Company, which could have an adverse effect on our future cash flows and financial position.
