Stockholders and Board of Directors

Personalis, Inc.

Fremont, California

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Personalis, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the Audit Committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements; and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Accounting for Tempus Agreement and Tempus Warrants

As described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company entered into a Commercialization and Reference Laboratory Agreement (the “Tempus Agreement”) with Tempus Labs, Inc. (“Tempus”) in November 2023. In connection with the Tempus Agreement, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to Tempus (“Tempus Warrants”). As of December 31, 2023, the Company received $6 million of cash proceeds from Tempus. The Tempus Warrants are classified as liability instruments, and the $6 million of proceeds were allocated to the Tempus Warrants.

We identified the evaluation of (i) the financial statement classification of the Tempus Warrants, and (ii) allocation of the proceeds among the elements of the Tempus Agreement and the Tempus Warrants as a critical audit matter. Our principal considerations included the existence of accounting complexities related to such evaluation and significant judgments involved in the interpretation of the terms of the agreements and in the application of appropriate accounting guidance. Auditing these elements required challenging and complex auditor judgment due to the nature and extent of audit effort required, including the extent of specialized skills or knowledge needed.

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

Reviewing and analyzing: (i) the terms of the Tempus Agreement and Tempus Warrants, and (ii) the Company’s application of the relevant accounting literature including the allocation of the proceeds received to the Tempus Warrants.

Utilizing personnel with specialized skills and knowledge to assist in: (i) evaluating relevant terms of the Tempus Agreement and Tempus Warrants in relation to the appropriate accounting literature, and (ii) assessing the appropriateness of the conclusions reached by the Company.
