NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Unaudited

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS; BASIS OF PRESENTATION; PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION; SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc. (“we” or “us” or “our” or “Accelerate” or the “Company”) is an in vitro diagnostics company dedicated to providing solutions that improve patient outcomes and lower healthcare costs through the rapid diagnosis of serious infections.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, as filed with the SEC on ~~March 1, 2019.~~February 28, 2020.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, ~~2018~~2019 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures such as notes required by U.S. GAAP.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the entire year ending December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, or any future period.

All amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions relate to accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, accrued liabilities, warranty liabilities, tax valuation accounts and equity–based compensation. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows ~~ASC~~Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820,, Fair Value Measurement, which has defined fair value and requires the Company to establish a framework for measuring and disclosing fair value. The framework requires the valuation of assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements using a three tiered approach and fair value measurement be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

•Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

•Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of

the asset or liability;

•Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity).

The carrying amounts of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other current liabilities approximate the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt represents a Level 2 measurement. See Note 10, Convertible Notes for further detail on the Company’s long-term debt.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at time of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include overnight repurchase agreement accounts and other investments. As part of our cash management process, excess operating cash is invested in overnight repurchase agreements with our bank. Repurchase agreements and other investments classified as cash and cash equivalents are not deposits and are not insured by the U.S. Government, the FDIC or any other government agency and involve investment risk including possible loss of principal. We believe, however, that the market risk arising from holding these financial instruments is minimal.

Investments

The Company invests in various ~~investments~~debt securities available-for-sale and equity securities which are primarily held in the custody of major financial institutions. ~~Investments~~Debt securities available-for-sale consist of certificates of deposit, U.S. government and agency securities, commercial paper, asset-backed securities, and corporate notes and bonds. Equity securities consist of mutual funds. Management ~~classifies its investments as available-for-sale investments and~~ records these investments in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses for debt securities available-for-sale are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity. Unrealized gains or losses for equity securities are included in other expense, net, a component of statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company considers all debt securities available-for-sale, ~~securities,~~ including those with maturity dates beyond 12 months, as available to support current operational liquidity needs. ~~Unrealized gains or losses for available-for-sale securities are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity.~~ The Company classifies its investments as current based on the nature of the investments and their availability for use in current operations.

~~The Company assesses~~On a quarterly basis, we perform an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a debt security available-for-sale in an ~~other-than-temporary~~unrealized loss position has suffered impairment as a result of credit loss ~~has occurred due to declines in~~or other factors. A debt security available-for-sale is considered impaired if its fair value ~~or other market conditions when an investment’s fair value remains~~is less than its cost for more than twelve months. This assessment includes a determination of whether the investment is expected to recover in value and whether the Company has the intent and ability to hold the investment until the anticipated recovery in value occurs. When an investment is identified as having an other-than-temporary impairment loss, we adjust theamortized cost basis at the reporting date.

If we intend to sell the debt security or if it is more-likely-than-not that we will be required to sell the debt security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, the impairment is recognized and the unrealized loss is recorded as a direct write-down of the ~~investment down to fair value resulting in a realized loss. The new~~security's amortized cost basis with an offsetting entry to earnings. If we do not intend to sell the debt security or believe we will not be required to sell the debt security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, the impairment is ~~not changed~~assessed to determine if a credit loss component exists. We use a discounted cash flow method to determine the credit loss component. In the event a credit loss exists, an allowance for ~~subsequent recoveries~~credit losses is recorded in ~~fair value and temporary future increases or decreases~~earnings for the credit loss component of the impairment while the remaining portion of the impairment attributable to factors other than credit loss is recognized, net of tax, in ~~fair value are included in~~accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The amount of impairment recognized due to credit factors is limited to the excess of the amortized cost basis over the fair value of the security available-for-sale.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company determines the cost of inventory using the first-in, first out method. The Company estimates the recoverability of inventory by reference to internal estimates of future demands and product life cycles, including expiration. The Company periodically

analyzes its inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire prior to expected sale or has a cost basis in excess of its estimated ~~net~~ realizable value and records a charge to expense for such inventory as appropriate.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consist of amounts due to the Company for sales to customers and are based on what we expect to collect in exchange for goods and services. Receivables are considered past due based on the contractual payment terms and are written off if reasonable collection efforts prove unsuccessful. ~~The Company provides~~

We maintain an allowance for ~~allowances~~credit losses for expected uncollectible accounts receivable, which is recorded as an offset to accounts receivable and changes in such are classified as general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We assess collectibility by reviewing accounts receivable on a collective basis where similar characteristics exist and on an individual basis when we identify specific ~~account basis by recording~~customers with known disputes or collectibility issues. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, we consider historical collectibility and make judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on credit evaluations. We also consider customer-specific information, current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions to inform adjustments to ~~revenue, if necessary. No allowances were recorded at~~historical loss data. The allowance for credit losses as of March 31, ~~2019 and December 31, 2018.~~2020 was $110,000.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and expenditures for major improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses from retirement or replacement are included in costs and expenses. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets, ranging from one ~~year~~ to seven years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the remaining life of the lease or the life of the asset, whichever is less.

Instruments Classified as Property and Equipment

Property and equipment includes Accelerate ~~Pheno™~~Pheno systems (also referred to as instruments) used for sales demonstrations, instruments under rental agreements and instruments used for research and development. Depreciation expense for instruments used for sales demonstrations is recorded as a component of sales, general and administrative expense. Depreciation expense for instruments placed at customer sites pursuant to reagent rental agreements is recorded as a component of cost of sales. Depreciation expense for instruments used in our laboratory and research is recorded as a component of research and development expense. The Company retains title to these instruments and depreciates them over five years. Losses from the retirement of returned instruments are included in costs and expenses.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of its instruments whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, this evaluation is performed at least annually. This evaluation is based on our estimate of future cash flows and the estimated fair value of such long-lived assets, and provides for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows or the estimated fair value are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of instruments. No impairment charges have been recorded as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company continuously evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets based on estimated future cash flows from and the estimated fair value of such long-lived assets, and provides for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows or the estimated fair value are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the long-lived asset.

Warranty Reserve

Instruments are typically sold with a one year limited warranty, while kits and accessories are typically sold with a sixty days limited warranty. Accordingly, a provision for the estimated cost of the limited warranty repair is recorded at the time revenue is recognized. Our estimated warranty provision is based on our estimate of future

repair events and the related estimated cost of repairs. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of the warranty reserve and adjusts the amount as necessary. The expense incurred for these provisions is included in cost of sales on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Warranty reserve activity for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 is as follows (in thousands):

Convertible Notes

We account for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash or equity upon conversion, which includes our 2.50% Senior Convertible Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”), by separating the liability and equity components of the instruments in a manner that reflects our nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. We determined the carrying amount of the liability component of the Notes by using estimates and assumptions that market participants would use in pricing a debt instrument. These estimates and assumptions are judgmental in nature and could have a significant impact on the determination of the debt component, and the associated non-cash interest expense.

The ~~Company issued convertible notes in 2018 that had conversion prices which resulted in an embedded beneficial conversion feature. The intrinsic value~~equity component is treated as a discount on the liability component of the ~~beneficial conversion feature was recorded as a debt discount with the corresponding amount recorded to contributed capital. The debt discount~~Notes, which is amortized over the term of the Notes using the effective interest rate method. Debt issuance costs related to ~~interest expense~~the Notes are allocated to the liability and equity components of the Notes based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs allocated to the liability component are amortized over the life of the Notes as additional non-cash interest expense. Transaction costs allocated to equity are netted with the equity component of the convertible ~~notes using the effective interest method.~~debt instrument in stockholders’ deficit.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised good or service is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Sales taxes are excluded from revenues.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

•Identification of the contract with a customer

•Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

•Determination of the transaction price

•Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations

•Recognition of revenue as we satisfy a performance obligation

Product revenue is derived from the sale or rental of our instruments and sales of related consumable products. When an instrument is sold, revenue is generally recognized upon installation of the unit consistent with contract terms, which do not include a right of return. When a consumable product is sold, revenue is generally recognized upon shipment. Invoices are generally issued when revenue is ~~recognized.~~recognized and the term between invoicing and when payment is due is not typically significant.

Service revenue is derived from the sale of extended service agreements which are generally non-cancellable. This revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term beginning on the effective

date of the contract because the Company is standing ready to provide services. Invoices are generally issued annually and coincide with the beginning of individual service terms.

Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, we allocate revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We generally determine relative standalone selling prices based on the price charged to customers for each individual performance obligation.

~~Our payment terms vary by the type and location of our customers and the product or services offered and range between 30 and 150 days.~~

Sales commissions earned by our sales force are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. The Company has determined these costs would have an amortization period of less than one year and has elected to recognize them as an expense when incurred. Contract asset opening and closing balances were immaterial for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes cost of materials, direct labor, equity-based compensation, facility and other manufacturing overhead costs for consumable tests and instruments sold to customers. Cost of sales for instruments also includes depreciation on revenue generating instruments that have been placed with our customers under a reagent rental agreement. Cost of sales includes repair and maintenance cost for instruments covered by a service agreement or instruments covered by a reagent rental agreement. Cost of sales also includes warranty related expenses.

Shipping and Handling

Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included as a component of revenue. The corresponding expense incurred with third party carriers is included as a component of sales, general and administrative costs on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Most such billable shipping and handling costs are in connection with consumable test kits. Unlike for test kits, the Company typically pays for shipping and handling for instruments.

Leases

The Company accounts for commercial leases in accordance with ASC 842, ~~Leases, which was adopted on January 1, 2019.~~Leases. We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease and the type of lease at inception. The Company classifies commercial leases as finance leases (lessee) or sales-type leases (lessor) when there is either a transfer of ownership of the underlying asset by the end of the lease term, the lease contains an option to purchase the asset that we are reasonably certain will be exercised, the lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the asset, the present value of the lease payments and any residual value guarantee equals or substantially exceeds all the fair value of the asset, or the asset is of such a specialized nature that it will have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. Payments contingent on future events (i.e. based on usage) are considered variable and excluded from lease payments for the purposes of classification and initial measurement. Several of our leases include

options to renew or extend the term upon mutual agreement of the parties and others include one-year extensions exercisable by the lessee. None of our leases contain residual value guarantees, restrictions, or covenants.

To determine whether a contract contains a lease, the Company uses its judgment in assessing whether the lessor retains a material amount of economic benefit from an underlying asset, whether explicitly or implicitly identified, which party holds control over the direction and use of the asset, and whether any substantive substitution rights over the asset exist.

Lessee

Operating leases are included in right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities within our ~~condensed~~ consolidated balance sheets. These assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and their related liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Typically, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement in determining the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate when readily determinable. ROU assets are net of lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is

recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, which may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option. As of ~~adoption of ASC 842~~March 31, 2020 and ~~as of March~~December 31, 2019, the Company was not party to finance lease arrangements.

Our operating leases consist primarily of leased office, factory, and laboratory space in the United States and office space ~~and automobiles~~ in Europe, have between two and ~~five-year~~six-year terms, and typically contain penalizing, early-termination provisions.

Lessor

The Company leases instruments to customers under “reagent rental” agreements, ~~under which~~whereby the customer agrees to purchase consumable products over a stated term, typically five years or less, for a volume-based price that includes an embedded rental for the instruments. When collectibility is probable, that amount is recognized as income at lease commencement for sales-type leases and onas product is shipped, typically in a ~~straight-line basis~~straight–line pattern, over the term for operating leases, which typically include a termination without cause or penalty provision given a short notice period.

Consideration is allocated between lease and non-lease components based on stand-alone selling price in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Net investment in sales-type leases are included within our condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of other current assets and other non-current assets, which include the present value of lease payments not yet received and the present value of the residual asset, which isare determined using the information available at commencement, including the lease term, ~~and~~ estimated useful life, rate implicit in the lease, and expected fair value of the instrument.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company may award stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based ~~options~~awards, and other equity-based instruments to its employees, directors and consultants. Compensation cost related to equity-based instruments is based on the fair value of the instrument on the grant date, and is recognized over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for each tranche (an accelerated attribution method) except for performance-based ~~options.~~awards. Performance-based ~~stock options~~awards vest based on the achievement of performance targets. Compensation costs associated with performance-based ~~option~~ awards are recognized over the requisite service period based on probability of achievement. Performance-based ~~stock options~~awards require management to make assumptions regarding the likelihood of achieving performance targets.

The Company estimates the fair value of service based and performance based stock option awards, including modifications of stock option awards, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model derives the fair value of stock options based on certain assumptions related to expected stock price volatility, expected option life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield.

•Volatility: The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock price over the most recent period commensurate with the expected term of the stock option award.

•Expected term: The estimated expected term for employee awards is based on the calculation published by the SEC in SAB110 for use when there is not a sufficient history of employee exercise patterns. For consultant awards, the estimated expected term is the same as the life of the award.

•Risk-free interest rate: The risk-free interest rate is based on published U.S. Treasury rates for a term commensurate with the expected term.

•Dividend yield: The dividend yield is estimated as ~~zero~~0 as the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not have any plans to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.

The Company records the fair value of RSUs or stock grants based on published closing market price on the day before the grant date.

The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur rather than on an estimated basis.

Deferred Tax Assets

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets. The change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period represents the deferred tax provision or benefit for the period. Effects of changes in enacted tax laws in deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as an adjustment to the tax provision or benefit in the period of enactment.

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes,, to account for any uncertainty in income taxes with respect to the accounting for all tax positions taken (or expected to be taken) on any income tax return. This guidance applies to all open tax periods in all tax jurisdictions in which the Company is required to file an income tax return. Under U.S. GAAP, in order to recognize an uncertain tax benefit, the taxpayer must be more likely than not certain of sustaining the position, and the measurement of the benefit is calculated as the largest amount that is more likely than not to be realized upon resolution of the position. Interest and penalties, if any, would be recorded within tax expense.

Foreign Currency Translation and Foreign Currency Transactions

Adjustments resulting from translating foreign functional currency financial statements into U.S. Dollars are included in the foreign currency translation adjustment, a component of accumulated other comprehensive ~~income (loss).~~loss.

The Company has assets and liabilities, including receivables and payables, which are denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. These balance sheet items are subject to re-measurement, the impact of which is recorded in foreign currency exchange gain and loss, within the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

~~Earnings~~Loss Per Share

Basic ~~earnings (loss)~~loss per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing ~~income (loss)~~loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of shares issuable from stock options and unvested RSUs. Potentially dilutive common shares would also include common shares that would be outstanding if ~~notes convertible~~the Notes at the balance sheet date were converted. Diluted earnings are not presented when the effect of adding such additional common shares is antidilutive.

~~Earnings per share are restated when certain transactions or events, including rights offerings determined~~Comprehensive Loss

In addition to ~~have bonus elements have occurred.~~net loss, comprehensive loss includes all changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners. The Company holds investments classified as debt securities available-for-sale and records the change in fair market value as a component of comprehensive loss. The Company also has adjustments resulting from translating foreign functional currency financial statements into U.S. Dollars which is included as a component of comprehensive loss.

NOTE 2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Standards that were recently adopted

In ~~February 2016,~~August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases,” which together with subsequent amendments is included in ASC 842. ASC 842 requires a lessee to recognize a liability to make lease payments and an asset with respect to its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. ASC 842 also addresses accounting and reporting by lessors, which is not significantly different from current accounting and reporting, and further provides for qualitative and quantitative disclosures. We adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method allowed by ASU 2018-11. This optional transition method allowed the Company to apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. For contracts where we are the lessee, we recorded lease liabilities and right of use assets for contracts in effect on January 1, 2019 based on the facts and circumstances as of that date. The Company elected not to reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, not to reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, not to reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases, and not to separate the lease components from the non-lease components for all classes of underlying assets. We recognized right of use assets and lessee lease liabilities of $0.6 million with respect to operating leases where we are the lessee. We also implemented internal controls and key system functionality to enable the preparation of financial information on adoption. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718); Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 simplifies the accounting for share-based payments made to nonemployees so the accounting for such payments is substantially the same as those made to employees. Under this ASU, share-based awards to nonemployees will be measured at fair value on the grant date of the awards, entities will need to assess the probability of satisfying performance conditions if any are present, and awards will continue to be classified according to ASC 718 upon vesting, which eliminates the need to reassess classification upon vesting, consistent with awards granted to employees. The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 on January 1, 2019, which did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements as all share-based awards granted to nonemployees are fully vested.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220); Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI). ASU 2018-02 allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for tax effects resulting from the Tax Act that the FASB refers to as having been stranded in AOCI. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 on January 1, 2019, with no impact to our consolidated financial statements as no amounts were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for tax effects resulting from the Tax Act.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivable - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Topic 310-20); Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. ASU 2017-08 shortens the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendment requires premiums to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The amendments should be applied on a modified retrospective basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company adopted ASU 2017-08 on January 1, 2019, with no impact to the consolidated financial statements as we do not carry callable securities held at a premium.

~~Standards not yet adopted~~

~~In August 2018, the FASB~~ issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820); Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 modifies, among other things, the disclosures required for Level 3 fair value measurements, including the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs. The guidance removes, among other things, the disclosure ~~requirements for~~requirement to disclose transfers between Levels 1 and 2. Level 3 fair value ~~measurements. This~~measurement disclosures should be applied prospectively while all other amendments should be applied retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU ~~is effective for us~~2018-13 on January 1, 2020, ~~with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the~~which had no impact ~~this will have on~~to our condensed consolidated financial ~~statements.~~statements as the Company did not carry Level 3 fair value items and had not transferred any securities between Levels during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326); Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ~~ASU 2019-04 and~~In November 2018, ASU 2018-19 ~~were~~was issued which amended the standard to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of lease accounting standards. Further, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, 2019-05, 2019-10, ASU 2019-11, 2020-02 and 2020-03 to provide additional guidance on the credit losses standard. ASU 2016-13 amends the guidance on measuring credit losses on financial assets (including trade accounts receivable and available for sale debt securities) held at amortized cost. ~~Currently,~~Previously, an “incurred loss” methodology iswas used for recognizing credit losses which delays recognition until it is probable a loss has been incurred. ~~The~~This amendment

requires assets valued at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected using an allowance for credit losses. Reversal of credit losses on available for sale debt securities ~~will be~~are now recorded in ~~the~~ current period net income. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. We adopted this standard using a modified-retrospective approach, and recorded a $0.1 million cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit in connection with the adoption. This adjustment was recorded to establish an allowance for trade account receivables and investment in leases. No cumulative-effect adjustment was recorded for unrealized losses on debt securities available-for-sale as the issuers of such securities held by us were of high credit quality. As a result, the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are presented under the new standard, while the comparative prior year period is not adjusted and continues to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting policy.

Standards not yet adopted

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815 (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321, the accounting for the equity method investments in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options in Topic 815. This ASU is effective for us on January 1, ~~2020,~~2021, with early adoption permitted. We ~~do not anticipate~~are currently assessing the impact this will have ~~a significant impact~~ on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740); Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 reduces complexity in the accounting standard. This ASU is effective for us on January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact this will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable, including receivables from major customers.

The Company has financial institutions for banking operations that hold 10% or more of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, two of the Company's financial institutions held ~~47%~~76% and ~~46%~~12% of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, respectively. As of December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, two of the Company's financial institutions held ~~46%~~73% and ~~43%~~18% of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, respectively.

The Company grants credit to domestic and international customers. Exposure to losses on accounts receivable is principally dependent on each client's financial position. The Company had one customer that accounted for ~~17%~~11% of the Company’s net accounts receivable balance as of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020 and ~~one customer that accounted for 10% of the Company's net accounts receivable balance as of~~ December 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

Customers who represented 10% or more of the Company’s total revenue for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 were as follows:


	Three Months Ended
	March 31,			Three Months Ended March 31,
	2019	2018		2020		2019
Company A	19%	14%	Company A	12	%	*
Company B	*	26%	Company B	*		19	%
Company C	*	12%
Company D	*	11%

* Less than 10% for the period indicated

Highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at time of purchase are included in cash and cash equivalents on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Level 1 assets are priced using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets which include money market

funds, ~~and~~ U.S. Treasury securities and mutual funds as these specific assets are liquid.

Level 2 available-for-sale securities are priced using quoted market prices for similar instruments or nonbinding market prices that are corroborated by observable market data. The Company uses inputs such as actual trade data, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, and other similar data, which are obtained from quoted market prices, independent pricing vendors, or other sources, to determine the ultimate fair value of these assets and liabilities. The Company uses such pricing data as the primary input to make its assessments and determinations as to the ultimate valuation of its investment portfolio and has not made, during the periods presented, any material adjustments to such inputs. There were no transfers between levels during the three months ended March 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

~~On March 27,~~In 2018, the Company issued ~~$150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (“Notes”). In connection with the offering of~~ the Notes, the Company granted the initial purchasers of the Notes a 13-day option to purchase up to an additional $22.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes on the same terms and conditions. On April 4, 2018 the option was partially exercised, which resulted in $21.5 million of additional proceeds, for total proceeds of $171.5 million, as described in Note 10, Convertible ~~Notes~~.Notes. At March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the ~~respective~~ fair value of the Notes ~~was $141.5~~were $93.5 million and ~~$121.4 million.~~$133.8 million, respectively. The fair value of the Notes is highly correlated to the Company’s stock price and as a result, significant changes to the Company’s stock price will have a significant impact on the calculated fair value. The fair value of the Notes are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 10. CONVERTIBLE NOTES

On March 27, 2018, the Company issued $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.50% Senior Convertible Notes due 2023. In connection with the offering of the Notes, the Company granted the initial purchasers of the Notes a 13-day option to purchase up to an additional $22.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes on the same terms and conditions. On April 4, 2018, the option was partially exercised, which resulted in $21.5 million of additional proceeds, for total proceeds of $171.5 million. The Notes are the Company's senior unsecured obligations and mature on March 15, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”), unless earlier repurchased or converted into shares of common stock under certain circumstances described below. The Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common

stock, can be repurchased for cash, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election, at an initial conversion rate of 32.3428 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $30.92 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. The Company ~~will pay~~pays interest on the Notes semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year.

The $171.5 million of proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes were allocated between long-term debt (the “liability component”) of $116.6 million and contributed capital (the “equity component”) of $54.9 million. The fair value of the liability component was measured using rates determined for similar debt instruments without a

conversion feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, representing the conversion option, was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the aggregate face value of the Notes. The liability component will be accreted up to the face value of the Notes of $171.5 million, which will result in additional non-cash interest expense being recognized through the Maturity Date. The equity component will not be remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

The Company incurred approximately $5.0 million of issuance costs related to the issuance of the Notes, of which $3.4 million and $1.6 million were recorded to long-term debt and contributed capital, respectively. The $3.4 million of issuance costs recorded as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet are being amortized over the ~~five-year~~five-year contractual term of the Notes using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate on the Notes, including accretion of the Notes to par and debt issuance cost amortization, is 11.52%.

The Notes include customary terms and covenants, including certain events of default upon which the Notes may be due and payable immediately. Holders have the option to convert the Notes in multiples of $1,000 principal amount at any time prior to December 15, 2022, but only in the following circumstances:

•if the Company’s stock price exceeds 130% of the conversion price for 20 of the last 30 trading days of any calendar quarter after June 30, 2018;

•during the 5 business day period after any 5 consecutive trading day period in which the Notes’ trading price is less than 98% of the product of the common stock price times the conversion rate; or

•the occurrence of certain corporate events, such as a change of control, merger or liquidation.

At any time on or after December 15, 2022, a holder may convert its Notes in multiples of $1,000 principal amount. Holders of the Notes who convert their Notes in connection with a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture pursuant to which the Notes were issued) are, under certain circumstances, entitled to an increase in the conversion rate. In addition, in the event of a fundamental change or event of default prior to the Maturity Date, holders will, subject to certain conditions, have the right, at their option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of the Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

~~Convertible notes~~The Notes at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consisted of the following ~~as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 follows~~ (in thousands):

The Company recorded $1.1 ~~million and $0.1~~ million for contractual coupon interest for each of the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018, respectively. The Company also recorded $0.1 million and no material amounts for amortization~~2019. Amortization of debt issuance costs for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018, respectively, and $2.2~~2019 was $0.2 million and $0.1 million, ~~for amortization~~respectively. Amortization of the debt discount for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~,2019 was $2.5 million and $2.2 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no Notes were convertible pursuant to their terms.

In connection with the ~~debt~~Notes issuance, the Company entered into a prepaid forward stock repurchase transaction (“Prepaid Forward”) with a financial institution (“Forward Counterparty”). Pursuant to the Prepaid Forward, the Company

used approximately $45.1 million of the net proceeds from its issuance of the Notes to fund the Prepaid Forward. The aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward was approximately 1,858,500. The expiration date for the Prepaid Forward is March 15, 2023, although it may be settled earlier in whole or in part. Upon settlement of the Prepaid Forward, at expiration or upon any early settlement, the Forward Counterparty will deliver to the Company the number of shares of common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward or the portion thereof being settled early. The shares purchased under the Prepaid Forward are treated as treasury stock and not outstanding for purposes of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share, but will remain outstanding for corporate law purposes, including for purposes of any future stockholders’

votes, until the Forward Counterparty delivers the shares underlying the Prepaid Forward to the Company. The Company’s Prepaid Forward hedge transaction exposes the Company to credit risk to the extent that its counterparty may be unable to meet the terms of the transaction. The Company mitigates this risk by limiting its counterparty to a major financial institution.

NOTE 11. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Basic and diluted net loss per share are the same because all outstanding common stock equivalents have been excluded, as they are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s losses.

The following potentially issuable common shares were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because they would have an anti-dilutive effect for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018~~2019 (in thousands):


				Three Months Ended March 31,
	2019	2018		2020	2019
Shares issuable upon the release of restricted stock awards	30	16	Shares issuable upon the release of restricted stock awards	154	30
Shares issuable upon exercise of stock options	9,160	8,084	Shares issuable upon exercise of stock options	10,851	9,160
	9,190	8,100		11,005	9,190

Potentially dilutive common shares would also include common shares that would be outstanding if Notes convertible at the balance sheet date were converted. As discussed in Note 10, Convertible Notes,, the Company issued ~~$171.5~~$171.5 million of Notes due 2023. The Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, can be repurchased for cash, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election, at an initial conversion rate of 32.3428 shares of common stock per ~~$1,000~~$1,000 principal amount of the Notes. As of March 31, ~~2019, no~~2020, 0 Notes were convertible pursuant to their terms. The number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes is 5.5 million shares.

In connection with the Notes, the Company entered into a prepaid forward stock repurchase transaction. The aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward was approximately ~~1,858,500~~.1,858,500. The shares purchased under the Prepaid Forward are treated as treasury stock and not outstanding for purposes of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share, but will remain outstanding for corporate law purposes, including for purposes of any future stockholders’ votes, until the Forward Counterparty delivers the shares underlying the Prepaid Forward to the Company.

For each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, $0.1 million ~~and $0.2 million, respectively,~~ of share-based compensation cost was capitalized to inventory or inventory ~~transfered~~transferred to property and equipment (also referred to as instruments).

As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options and unvested RSUs was ~~$22.5~~$23.4 million and ~~$0.4~~$0.8 million, respectively. This is expected to be recognized over the years ~~2019~~2020 through ~~2024.~~2025.

Included in the above-noted stock ~~option grants~~options outstanding and stock compensation expense are performance-based stock options which vest only upon the achievement of certain targets. Performance-based stock options are generally granted at-the-money, contingently vest over a period of 1 to 2 years, depending on the nature of the performance goal, and have contractual lives of 10 years. These options were valued in the same manner as the time-based options, with the assumption that performance goals will be achieved. The inputs for expected volatility, expected dividends, and risk-free rate used in estimating those options’ fair value are the same as the time-based options issued under the plan. The expected term for performance-based stock options ~~granted in 2018~~ is 5 to 6 years. However, the Company only recognizes stock compensation expense to the extent that the targets are determined to be probable of being achieved, which triggers the vesting of the performance options.

In August 2018, the Company granted 225,000 performance-based stock options. The performance ~~based-options to certain employees. The~~obligations were met for 75,000 options and are exercisable as of March 31, 2020. Of the 225,000 performance-based stock options granted 100,000 performance-based stock options were forfeited for the performance targets not being achieved.

125,000 performance-based stock options were outstanding as of March 31, 2020, which included 50,000 performance-based stock options not yet probable of being achieved and have not started being expensed. No performance-based stock options have been exercised as of March 31, 2020. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $0 and $0.1 million of stock compensation expense for performance-based stock options, respectively.

Included in the above-noted RSU and restricted stock award outstanding amount are performance-based RSU's which vest only upon the achievement of certain targets. Performance-based RSU's contingently vest over a period of 3 years, depending on the nature of the performance goal, and have contractual lives of 10 years. These units were valued in the same manner as other RSUs, based on the published closing market price on the day before the grant date. However, the Company only recognizes stock compensation expense to the extent that the targets are determined to be probable of being achieved, which triggers the vesting of the performance options. For the three months ended March 31, ~~2019 for~~2020 the Company granted 95,866 performance-based ~~stock options.~~RSU's, all of which were outstanding at March 31, 2020. None of the performance goals had become probable of being achieved, and no expense was recorded at March 31, 2020.

NOTE 13. INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company ~~recorded a~~did 0t carry an income tax provision ~~for income taxes of $0.2 million, which primarily relates to profitable~~amount as the Company does not recognize tax benefits from current year tax losses in the U.S. and other foreign ~~jurisdictions without any net operating loss carryforwards.~~jurisdictions. The Company’s tax expense for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 differs from the tax expense computed by applying the U.S. statutory tax rate to its year-to-date pre-tax loss of ~~$21.5~~$21.3 million, as no tax benefits were recorded for tax losses generated in the U.S. and other foreign jurisdictions. At March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had deferred tax assets primarily related to U.S. federal and state tax loss carryforwards and a deferred tax liability related to amortization of the ~~convertible notes.~~Notes. The Company provided a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets as future realization of such assets is not more likely than not to occur.

On March 27, 2020, the United States enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The Cares Act is an emergency economic stimulus package that includes spending and tax breaks to strengthen the United States economy and fund a nationwide effort to curtail the effect of COVID-19. While the CARES Act provides sweeping tax changes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, some of the more significant provisions include removal of certain limitations on utilization of net operating losses, increasing the loss carryback period for certain losses to five years, and increasing the ability to deduct interest expense, as well as amending certain provisions of the previously enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Due to the recent enactment of the CARES Act, the Company is unable to quantify the impact, if any, that the CARES Act will have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Management does not expect the CARES Act to have a material impact on the Company’s income tax position for financial reporting purposes.

~~We account~~The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions pursuant to the recognition and measurement criteria under ASC 740, Income ~~Taxes~~.Taxes. For the three months ended March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we did not note any significant

changes to our uncertain tax positions. We do not anticipate significant changes to uncertain tax ~~position~~positions within the next 12 months.

NOTE 14. COMMITMENTS

Clinical Trial & Study Agreements

The Company has entered into master agreements with clinical trial and study sites in which we typically pay a set amount for start-up costs and then pay for work performed. These agreements typically indemnify the clinical trial sites from any and all losses arising from third party claims as a result of the Company's negligence, willful misconduct or misrepresentation. The expenses for start-up costs and work performed for these trials and studies is recorded as research and development or sales, general and administrative expenses on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. No commitments were recorded in connection with ~~indemnify~~indemnifying these sites ~~for losses.~~during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

On August 20, 2019, the Company and an entity affiliated with then Chief Operating Officer of the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) for the issuance and sale by the Company of an aggregate of 55,586 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”) in an offering exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. The ~~affiliated entity~~Shares were sold at a purchase price (determined in accordance with Nasdaq rules relating to the “market value” of the shares) of $17.99 per share, which was equal to the consolidated closing bid price reported by Nasdaq immediately preceding the time the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement. The $1.0 million of proceeds were recorded to contributed capital.

NOTE 18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 14, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note evidencing an unsecured loan (the “Loan”) in the amount of $4.8 million made to the Company under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”). The PPP was established under the CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration.

The promissory note matures on April 14, 2022 and bears interest at a ~~Qualified Institutional Buyer which purchased~~rate of 1% per annum. Beginning November 14, 2020, the Company is required to make 18 monthly payments of principal and ~~holds~~interest in the ~~Notes~~amount of $0.3 million. The Loan may be prepaid by the Company at ~~March 31, 2019.~~any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The proceeds from the Loan may only be used for payroll costs (including benefits), interest on mortgage obligations, rent, utilities and interest on certain other debt obligations.

The Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, making materially false and misleading representations to the lender or breaching the terms of the Loan documents. The occurrence of an event of default will result in an increase in the interest rate to 18% per annum and provides the lender with customary remedies, including the right to require immediate payment of all amounts owed under the promissory note.

Pursuant to the terms of the CARES Act and the PPP, the Company may apply to the lender for forgiveness for the amount due on the Loan. The amount eligible for forgiveness is based on the amount of Loan proceeds used by the Company (during the eight-week period after the lender makes the first disbursement of Loan proceeds) for the payment of certain covered costs, including payroll costs (including benefits), interest on mortgage obligations, rent and utilities, subject to certain limitations and reductions in accordance with the CARES Act and the PPP. No assurance can be given that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the Loan in whole or in part.

Overview

Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc. (“Accelerate”) is an in vitro diagnostics company dedicated to providing solutions that improve patient outcomes and lower healthcare costs through the ~~fast~~rapid diagnosis of serious infections. Microbiology laboratories are in need of new tools to address what the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (the “CDC”) calls one of the most serious healthcare threats of our time, antibiotic resistance. A significant contributing factor to the rise of resistance is the overuse and misuse of antibiotics, which is exacerbated by a lack of timely diagnostic results. The delay of identification and antibiotic susceptibility results is often due to the reliance by microbiology laboratories on traditional culture-based tests that often take two to three days to complete. Our technology platform is built to address these challenges by delivering significantly faster testing of infectious pathogens in various patient sample types.

Our first system to address these challenges is the Accelerate ~~Pheno™~~Pheno system. The Accelerate ~~Pheno™~~Pheno system utilizes genotypic technology to identify ~~(ID)~~(“ID”) infectious pathogens and phenotypic technology to conduct antibiotic susceptibility testing ~~(AST)~~(“AST”), which determines whether live bacterial and fungal cells are resistant or susceptible to a particular antimicrobial. The Accelerate ~~PhenoTest™~~PhenoTest® BC Kit, which is the first test kit for the system, provides ID and AST results for patients suspected of bacteremia or fungemia, both life-threatening conditions with high morbidity and mortality risk. This information is used to rapidly modify antibiotic therapy to lessen ~~side-affects,~~side-effects, improve clinical outcomes, and help preserve the useful life of antibiotics.

On June 30, 2015, we declared our conformity to the European In Vitro Diagnostic Directive 98/79/EC and applied a CE Mark to the Accelerate ~~Pheno™~~Pheno system and the Accelerate ~~PhenoTest™~~PhenoTest BC Kit for in vitro diagnostic use. On February 23, 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) granted our de novo request to market our Accelerate ~~Pheno™~~Pheno system and Accelerate ~~PhenoTest™~~PhenoTest BC Kit.

In 2017, we began selling the Accelerate ~~Pheno™~~Pheno system in hospitals in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. Consistent with the Company's “razor” / “razor-blade” business model, revenues to date have principally been generated from the sale of the instruments and the sale of single use consumable test kits.

In 2019, based upon our initial experience selling and implementing the Accelerate Pheno system, we implemented initiatives to improve and refine our commercial execution and to re-engineer our product implementation processes. Improving our commercial and implementation capabilities remains an emphasis going forward, along with geographic expansion and product innovation.

On April 13, 2020 we signed a non-exclusive agreement with BioCheck to sell MS-FAST, a fully-automated chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer, along with BioCheck’s SARS-CoV-2 tests for the detection of IgG and IgM antibodies (“BioCheck COVID-19 Serology Test”) in North America, Europe and the Middle East. We expect to begin sellling the BioCheck COVID-19 Serology Test in the second quarter of 2020. We will pay BioCheck a pre-defined price for the sale of each BioCheck COVID-19 Serology Test device and assay. The BioCheck COVID-19 Serology Test has a CE Mark and FDA regulatory approval is pending. In Europe we plan to obtain the BioCheck products directly through BioCheck's related entity, Sophonix Limited of China. The BioCheck COVID-19 Serology Test will be the first third-party product sold by Accelerate, the first product sold by Accelerate outside bacterial infections, and will be directed at the rapidly evolving COVID-19 serology market. As such, there are uncertainties regarding market demand, market acceptance, supply constraints, FDA approval, ramp up expenditures, and other factors impacting market penetration.

COVID-19 Update

shutdowns in affected areas, both regionally and worldwide, which have significantly impacted our business and results of operations.

For example, as a result of the pandemic, during the first quarter of 2020, our access to our customers to sell and implement the Accelerate Pheno system began to diminish as hospitals became primarily focused on the COVID-19 pandemic. By the end of the first quarter of 2020, we were largely unable to sell or implement new Accelerate Pheno systems. We are uncertain how long our access to our customers to sell and implement Accelerate Pheno systems will be limited. Further, starting in April our revenue from consumable test kits declined modestly from some of our current customers due to hospitals in many regions suspending elective surgeries and seeing lower rates of occupancy. As a result of delayed implementations of Accelerate Pheno systems, our results of operations for the first quarter of 2020 were negatively impacted.

As a medical device company, we are permitted to continue manufacturing our products at our Tucson, Arizona headquarters under the State of Arizona stay-at-home order. We are able to have staff at our office who are essential to manufacturing and shipping our products, and certain other staff who need to work in the office in order to be fully productive, while maintaining necessary social distancing practices. Our third-party manufacturing supply chain for Accelerate Pheno systems and consumable test kits remains stable. However, the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic remain unpredictable, and we are closely monitoring the ability of all our suppliers to provide us with materials necessary for the manufacture of Accelerate Pheno systems and consumable test kits.

Additionally, the Company has applied for and received loan proceeds of approximately $4.8 million under the Paycheck Protection Program established under the CARES Act. The proceeds from the loan may only be used for payroll costs (including benefits), interest on mortgage obligations, rent, utilities and interest on certain other debt obligations. For additional information about the loan, refer to Item 1, Note 18, Subsequent Events in this Form 10-Q.

We continue to monitor the rapidly evolving situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may take further actions required by governmental authorities or that we determine are prudent to support the well-being of our employees, customers, suppliers, business partners and others. The degree to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, continuously evolving and cannot be predicted. This includes, but is not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.

Accordingly, our current results and financial condition discussed herein may not be indicative of future operating results and trends. Refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q for additional risks we face due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Our primary source of liquidity has been from sales of shares of common stock and the issuance of our convertible notes. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had ~~$150.9~~$92.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities, a decrease of ~~$15.6~~$16.4 million from ~~$166.5~~$108.5 million at December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The primary reason for the decrease was due to cash used in operations during the period.

The Company is subject to lease agreements. The future minimum lease payments under these lease agreements isare included in Item 1, Note 15, Leases.

As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, management believes that current cash balances will be ~~more than~~ sufficient to fund our capital and liquidity needs for the next twelve months.

Our primary use of capital has been for the commercialization and development of the Accelerate ~~Pheno™~~Pheno system. We believe our capital requirements will continue to be met with our existing cash balance and those provided by revenue, grants, exercises of stock options and/or additional issuance of equity or debt securities. However, if capital requirements vary materially from those currently planned, we may require additional capital sooner than expected. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current common stockholders.

Net cash used in operating activities was primarily the result of net losses offset by equity-based compensation and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs. These losses are the result of continued investments in research and development, sales and marketing, along with other factors. ~~Increased current assets and decreased current liabilities increased~~A decrease in our net loss offset by changes in working capital resulted in a decrease in cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 compared to the prior year period. ~~Non-cash equity-based compensation also decreased~~

Cash flows from investing activities

The net cash used in investing activities was $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company purchased marketable securities of $21.6 million, which were offset in part by maturities of marketable securities of $16.7 million. The net cash provided by investing activities was $24.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company had proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities of $37.7 million, which were offset in part by purchases of marketable securities of $12.8 million.

The Company had an increase in marketable securities purchases during the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, due to the Company liquidating a portion of its money market funds carried as cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2019, and reinvesting these balances in debt securities available-for-sale during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company had larger proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the ~~prior year period, which further increased net cash used in operating activities for~~three months ended March 31, 2020 due to the ~~current period.~~

Convertible Notes

On March 27, 2018, the Company issued $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.50% Convertible Senior Notes (“Notes”). In connection with the offering of the Notes, the Company granted the initial purchasers of the Notes a 13-day option to purchase up to an additional $22.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes on the same terms and conditions. On April 4, 2018 the option was partially exercised, which resulted in $21.5 million of additional proceeds, for total proceeds of $171.5 million. The Notes mature on March 15, 2023, unless earlier repurchased or converted into shares of common stock subject to certain conditions. The Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, can be repurchased for cash, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election, at an initial conversion rate of 32.3428 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $30.92 per share of common stock, subject to

adjustment. We ~~will~~ pay interest on the Notes semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year with interest payments beginning on September 15, 2018. Proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes ~~was~~were allocated between long-term debt (the “liability component”) and contributed capital (the “equity component”), within the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of the liability component was measured using rates determined for similar debt instruments without a conversion feature. For additional information about the Notes, refer to Item 1, Note 10, Convertible Notes in this Form 10-Q.

In connection with the offering, we entered into a prepaid forward stock repurchase transaction (the “Prepaid Forward”) with a financial institution. Pursuant to the Prepaid Forward, we used approximately $45.1 million of the proceeds from the offering of the Notes to pay the prepayment amount. The aggregate number of our common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward is approximately 1,858,500 shares (based on the sale price of ~~$24.25~~)$24.25). The expiration date for the Prepaid Forward is March 15, 2023, although it may be settled earlier in whole or in part. Upon settlement

of the Prepaid Forward, at expiration or upon any early settlement, the Forward Counterparty will deliver to us the number of shares of common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward or the portion thereof being settled early. The shares purchased under the Prepaid Forward were treated as treasury stock on the condensed consolidated balance sheet (and not outstanding for purposes of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share), but remain outstanding for corporate law purposes, including for purposes of any future stockholders' votes, until the Forward Counterparty delivers the shares underlying the Prepaid Forward to us.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes in our reported contractual obligations, as described under “Contractual Obligations” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to accounts receivable, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, accruals, warranty liabilities, tax valuation accounts and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities isand are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2018. Additional~~2019. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies ~~added to Item 1, Note 1, Organization~~ and ~~Nature of Business; Basis of Presentation; Principles of Consolidation; Significant Accounting Policies, include the adoption of ASC 842,~~ ~~Leases~~ estimates during the three months ended March 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our investment portfolio is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. The fair market value of fixed rate securities may be adversely impacted by fluctuations in interest rates while income earned on floating rate securities may decline as a result of decreases in interest rates. We have historically maintained a relatively short average maturity for our investment portfolio, and we believe a hypothetical 100 basis point adverse move in interest rates along the entire interest rate yield curve would change the fair value of our interest sensitive financial instruments by approximately ~~$0.4~~$0.1 million as of March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~$0.5~~$0.3 million as of December 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

Under our current policies, we do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes. We attempt to ensure the safety and preservation of our invested principal funds by limiting

default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. The goals of our investment policy are preservation of capital, fulfillment of liquidity needs and fiduciary control of cash and investments. We also seek to maximize income from our investments without assuming significant risk. To achieve our goals, we maintain a portfolio of cash equivalents and investments in a variety of securities that management believes to be of high credit quality. Further information regarding our investments is included in Item 1, Note 5, ~~Investments.~~Investments in this Form 10-Q.

Although the Company’s Notes are based on a fixed rate, changes in interest rates could impact the fair market value of the Notes. As of March 31, 2020, the fair market value of the Notes was $93.5 million. For additional information about the Notes, refer to Item 1, Note 10, Convertible Notes in this Form 10-Q.

Foreign Currency Risk

We operate primarily in the United States and a majority of our cost, expense and capital purchasing activities for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 were transacted in U.S. dollars. As a corporation with international and

domestic operations, we are exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. Our international revenue is predominantly in Europe and the Middle East and is denominated in Euros and United States dollars. In our international operations, we pay payroll and other expenses in local currencies. Our exposures to foreign currency risks may change over time and could have a material adverse impact on our financial results.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the ~~period~~quarter ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are from time to time subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of our business. We believe that there are currently no claims or legal actions that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~There have been no material changes~~In addition to the ~~risk factors that were disclosed~~other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risks discussed in the ~~Company’s~~section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the ~~fiscal~~ year ended December 31, ~~2018~~.2019 and the risks relating to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic described below. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and below are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

Additional Risk Related to Our Business and Strategy

The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and is expected to continue to have, a significant adverse impact on our commercial operations and also exposes our business to other risks.

In late 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, which has since spread globally. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. Further, the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in government authorities around the world implementing numerous measures to try to reduce the spread of COVID-19, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home, or total lock-down (or similar) orders and business limitations and shutdowns. For example, the State of Arizona has implemented a stay-at-home order promoting physical distancing and limiting residents time away from their residence or property, except to conduct or participate in essential activities. The COVID-19 pandemic and these measures have caused, and are continuing to cause, business slowdowns or shutdowns in affected areas, both regionally and worldwide, which have significantly impacted our business and results of operations, starting in the first quarter of 2020. For example, this included diminished access to our customers, including hospitals, which has severely limited our ability to sell or implement the Accelerate Pheno systems, as well as a modestly negative impact to the demand for our consumable test kits beginning in April 2020. For additional information, refer to “—COVID-19 Update” in Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.

In addition to the negative impact on new sales and implementations of the Accelerate Pheno system and to demand for our consumable test kits, the pandemic exposes our business, operations, and workforce to a variety of other risks, including:

•delays in product development or reductions in manufacturing production as a result of inventory shortages, supply chain shortages, or diversion of our efforts and resources to projects related to COVID-19;

•increased expenses resulting from our COVID-19 BioCheck serology initiative;

•regulatory approval delays due to regulators being overwhelmed reviewing COVID-19 related medical devices and drugs;

•increased regulatory restrictions or continued market volatility could hinder our ability to execute strategic business activities, as well as negatively impact our stock price;

•significant disruption of global financial markets, which could cause fluctuations in currency exchange rates or negatively impact our ability to access capital markets;

•inability to access capital markets on terms that are not significantly detrimental to our business because our revenue growth rate has slowed due to our inability to sell and implement the Accelerate Pheno system as forecasted prior to the pandemic at a stage in our maturation when we are cash flow negative and have significant indebtedness in the form of convertible senior notes;

•negative impact on our workforce productivity, product development, and research and development due to difficulties resulting from our personnel working remotely; and

•illnesses to key employees, or a significant portion of our workforce, which may result in inefficiencies, delays, and disruptions in our business;

Any of these developments may adversely affect our business, harm our reputation, or result in legal or regulatory actions against us.

The potential effects of COVID-19 may also impact many of our other risk factors discussed in in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The degree to which COVID-19 ultimately impacts our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, continuously evolving and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the COVID-19 outbreak, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.
