Current report
FDA is phasing out its general policy of enforcement discretion and will regulate laboratory developed tests as medical devices.
Current report
On September 29, 2023, FDA announced a proposed rule to amend its regulations to explicitly regulate laboratory developed tests (LDTs) as in vitro diagnostic tests in accordance with the agency’s regulatory authority over medical devices. The FDA finalized its rule on May 6, 2024 and announced that the agency will phase-out its LDT enforcement discretion policy in gradual stages over a total period of four years. LDTs that fall within targeted enforcement discretion policies may be exempt from some of these requirements.
Current report
Under the final rule, our tests that are currently offered as LDTs could become subject to certain statutory and regulatory provisions that are applicable to medical devices, including but not limited to, medical device reporting and correction and removal reporting requirements, quality systems regulations, registration and listing requirements, and premarket review requirements. Laboratories offering “high-risk tests that will be subject to premarket authorization application requirements or licensure under Section 351 of the Public Health Service Act, will need to ensure that the appropriate submission is received by the FDA before November 6, 2027. Laboratories offering “moderate-risk” or “low-risk” tests that will be subject to De Novo authorization or premarket notification submissions will need to ensure that the appropriate submission is received by the FDA before May 6, 2028. Other regulatory requirements will be gradually phased in beginning on May 6, 2025.
Current report
Failure to comply with applicable requirements under the relevant timeframes could cause us to lose the ability to perform our tests, experience disruptions to our business, or become subject to administrative or judicial enforcement actions, which in turn may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. For more information regarding these risks, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was filed on March 1, 2024, under the heading "— Risks Related to our Governmental Regulation—Our current line of diagnostic tests is covered under CLIA and CMS, but the FDA may end its general policy of enforcement discretion and regulate laboratory developed tests as medical devices. Changes in the way the FDA regulates tests performed by laboratories like ours could result in delay or additional expense in offering our tests and tests that we may develop in the future."
Current report
Legal challenges have been filed in federal district court over the agency’s authority to regulate LDTs as medical devices, and the outcome of such litigation and its impact on FDA’s plan to implement the requirements are uncertain. Congress has also considered legislation to establish a new comprehensive regulatory framework that would provide oversight over LDTs.
Current report
In connection with the Concurrent Private Placement, the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated April 5, 2024 (the Registration Rights Agreement), with the Investors, which provides that the Company will register the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company was required to prepare and file an initial registration statement with the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than April 23, 2024 (the Filing Deadline), and to use reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within 50 days after the closing of the Concurrent Private Placement, subject to the approval of the conversion of the Concurrent Private Placement Shares being received at the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders.
Current report
On May 21, 2024, the Company held its 2024 annual meeting of stockholders in which the Conversion Proposal and Issuance Proposal were approved by the Company's stockholders. Upon approval, each share of Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 40 shares of Common Stock and, on May 23, 2024, the Company issued 30,434,280 shares of Common Stock in exchange for all Series A Preferred Stock.

Previous wording
On April 5, 2024, we entered into the Securities Purchase Agreements, pursuant to which we sold 760,857 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which, subject to stockholder approval and certain beneficial ownership limitations set by each holder pursuant to the Series A Certificate of Designation, will automatically convert into 40 shares of Common Stock for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, for an aggregate of up to 30,434,280 shares of our common stock and an aggregate purchase price of $35.0 million. The Private Placement Preferred Shares were offered and sold in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) thereof. Each of the investors represented that it was an “accredited investor,” as defined in Regulation D, and acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The Private Placement Preferred Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws. The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Concurrent Private Placement for commercial expansion of sales, supporting its product pipeline, research and development and for general corporate purposes.
