BIODESIX INC

Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business

Biodesix, Inc. (the “Company,” “Biodesix,” “we,” “us” and “our”), formerly Elston Technologies, Inc., was incorporated in Delaware in 2005. The Company’s headquarters are in Colorado and the Company performs its blood-based diagnostic tests in its laboratory facilities which are located in Louisville, Colorado and De Soto, Kansas. The Company conducts all of its operations within a single legal entity. Biodesix is a leading diagnostic solutions company with a focus in lung disease. The Company develops diagnostic tests using a multi-omic approach to harness the strengths of different technologies that are best suited to address important clinical questions. We derive our revenue from two sources: (i) providing diagnostic testing services associated with five blood-based lung tests (Diagnostic Tests) and (ii) providing biopharmaceutical companies with services that include diagnostic research, clinical research, development and testing services generally provided outside the clinical setting and governed by individual contracts with third parties as well as development and commercialization of companion diagnostics. We also recognize revenue from other services, including amounts derived from licensing our technologies (Biopharmaceutical Services and other).

Blood-Based Lung Tests

The Company offers five Medicare-covered blood-based lung cancer tests across the lung cancer continuum of careto support treatment decisions across all stages of lung cancer:

Diagnosis

•

Nodify CDT® and Nodify XL2® tests, marketed as Nodify Lung® Nodule Risk Assessment, assess a suspicious lung nodule's risk of lung cancer to help identify the most appropriate treatment pathway. The Nodify CDT and XL2 tests have an established average turnaround time of one and five business days, respectively, from receipt of the blood sample, providing physicians with timely results to guide diagnostic planning. The Nodify CDT test is a blood-based test that detects the presence of seven autoantibodies associated with the presence of tumors. Elevated levels of the autoantibodies in patients with lung nodules indicate an increased risk of lung cancer to help identify patients that may benefit from timely intervention. The Nodify XL2 test is a blood-based proteomic test that evaluates the likelihood that a lung nodule is benign to help identify patients that may benefit from surveillance imaging. We believe we are the only company to offertwo commercial blood-based tests to help physicians reclassify risk of malignancy in patients with suspicious lung nodules.

Treatment & Monitoring

•

GeneStrat® ddPCR, GeneStrat NGS® and VeriStrat® tests, marketed as part of our IQLung™ testing strategy, are used following diagnosis of lung cancer to detect the presence of mutations in the tumor and the state of the patient’s immune system to help guide treatment decisions. The GeneStrat ddPCR tumor genomic profiling test and the VeriStrat immune profiling test have established an average turnaround time of two business days from receipt of the blood sample, and the GeneStrat NGS test has an established average turnaround time of three business days from receipt of the blood sample, providing physicians with timely results to facilitate treatment decisions. The GeneStrat ddPCR test evaluates the presence of actionable mutations in lung cancer. The test is covered independent of stage and can be used multiple times per patient to monitor changes in mutation status. The GeneStrat NGS test is a broad 52 gene panel, including guideline recommended mutations that help identify advanced stage patients eligible for targeted therapy or clinical trial enrollment. The VeriStrat test is a blood-based proteomic test that provides a personalized view of each patient’s immune response to their lung cancer.

In developing the Company's products, we have developed or designed a regulatory strategy resulting in approvals, product development and clinical acumen, biorepositories, proprietary and patented technologies, specimen collection kit manufacturing capabilities, and bioinformatics methods that it believes are important to the development of new targeted therapies, determining clinical trial eligibility, and guiding treatment selection. The Company’s testing services are made available through its clinical laboratories.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information and reflect all adjustments necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results for interim periods are not indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Certain information and footnote disclosures, including significant accounting policies, normally included in fiscal year financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2024, we maintained cash and cash equivalents of$31.4 million and we have$40.0 million in outstanding aggregate principal amount on our Perceptive Term Loan Facility (see Note 6 –Debt). We have incurred significant losses since inception and, as a result, we have funded our operations to date primarily through the sale of common stock, the sale of convertible preferred stock, the issuance of notes payable, and from our two primary revenue sources: (i) diagnostic testing, which includes lung diagnostic testing and (ii) providing biopharmaceutical companies with development and testing services and licensing our technologies. In accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2014-15 (ASC Topic 205-40), Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern: Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, the Company is required to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern each reporting period, including interim periods. In evaluating the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management projected its cash flow sources and evaluated the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these financial statements were issued. Management considered the Company’s current projections of future cash flows, our ability to execute our current operating plan, current financial condition, sources of liquidity and debt obligations for at least one year from the date of issuance of this Form 10-Q in considering whether it has the ability to meet its obligations.

Our ability to meet our obligations as they come due may be impacted by our ability to remain compliant with financial covenants in our Perceptive Term Loan Facility (see Note 6 –Debt) or to obtain waivers or amendments that impact the related covenants. As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive and financial covenants associated with its borrowings.

Our ability to maintain our financial covenants under our Perceptive Term Loan Facility during the next twelve months is, in part, dependent upon executing our current operating plan. If we do not execute our current operating plan and maintain our financial covenants, this could result in an Event of Default (as defined in the Perceptive Term Loan Facility), causing an acceleration and repayment of the outstanding balances. The Perceptive Term Loan Facility requires the Company to meet certain minimum net revenue threshold amounts agreed to between the Company and Perceptive as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, which commenced with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023. During 2023, the Company entered into various amendments to the Perceptive Term Loan Facility to reduce the relevant Minimum Net Revenue thresholds. On February 29, 2024, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Perceptive Term Loan Facility, whereby, subject to the terms and conditions of the third amendment, the Minimum Net Revenue Covenant was amended to reduce the relevant threshold through the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025 (see Note 6 –Debt). During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company completed an underwritten offering of common stock and a concurrent private placement (the April 2024 Offering). Collectively, the Company raised net proceeds of approximately $51.3 million (see Note 8 –Equity). We have taken steps to improve our liquidity through raising debt and equity capital and have also undertaken several proactive measures including, among other things, the reduction of planned capital expenditures and certain operating expenses as previously disclosed. If we do not execute our current operating plan, we may need to consider further measures to reduce our operating expenses. These measures would limit or reduce our operations and could include a hiring freeze, reductions in our workforce, reduction in cash compensation, deferring capital expenditures, and reducing other operating costs.

If we do not execute our current operating plan we may need to continue to raise additional funds from external sources, such as through the issuance of debt or equity securities. We may also raise additional capital to restructure our existing debt or for general working capital purposes, or both. If we raise additional capital through debt financing, we may be subject to covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we do raise additional capital through equity offerings, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect our existing stockholders’ rights. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us or, if available, will be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us or on a timely basis.

We expect to continue to incur operating losses in the near term while we make investments to support our anticipated growth. Our ability to maintain our financial covenants is, in part, dependent upon executing our current operating plan and, along with the items noted above, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Our unaudited financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates

Thepreparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Other Uncertainties

Substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are deposited with one major financial institution in the United States. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institution with which it holds cash. Periodically throughout the year, the Company has maintained balances in various operating and money market accounts in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents.

Several of the components for certain of the Company's sample collection kits, test reagents, and test systems are obtained from single-source suppliers. If these single-source suppliers fail to satisfy the Company's requirements on a timely basis, the Company could suffer delays in being able to deliver its diagnostic solutions, a possible loss of revenue, or incur higher costs, any of which could adversely affect its operating results.

For a discussion of credit risk concentration of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, see Note 9 – Revenue and Accounts Receivable Credit Concentration.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of deposits related to the Company’s corporate credit card. For both of the periods ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $0.1 million restricted cash, respectively, which was included in ‘Other current assets’ in the accompanying condensed balance sheets.

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of material supplies, which are consumed in the performance of testing services and charged to ‘Direct costs and expenses’. Inventory is stated at cost and reported within ‘Other current assets’ in the condensed balance sheets and was $1.2 million and $1.4 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company recorded a reserve for excess inventory ofzero and $0.1 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded an insignificant amount and $0.1 million, respectively, to the condensed statements of operations for excess and obsolete inventory.

Other Assets

The Company has a $5.0 million cash refundable deposit to secure the performance of the Company’s obligations associated with the operating lease agreement with Centennial Valley Properties I, LLC and subsequently assigned to CVP I Owner LLC (see Note 7 –Leases). As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the $5.0 million refundable deposit is reported within 'Other long-term assets' in thecondensed balance sheets.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

U.S. GAAP for fair value establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). We utilize a combination of market and income approaches to value our financial instruments. Our financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. Fair value measurements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy based upon the lowest level of the most significant inputs used to determine fair value.

The three levels of the hierarchy and the related inputs are as follows:

The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, other long-term assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.

See Note 4— Fair Valuefor further discussion related to estimated fair value measurements.

Note 3 - Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Standards Being Evaluated

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures(ASC Topic 280). This ASU requires all public entities to provide additional disclosures about the entity's reportable segments and more detailed information about a reportable segment's expenses. This guidance will become effective for the Company for the annual period beginning on January 1, 2024, and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and assessing the overall impact on its financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This guidance will become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and assessing the overall impact on its financial statements.

Note 4 - Fair Value

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Our borrowing instruments are recorded at their carrying values in the condensed balance sheets, which may differ from their respective fair values. The fair value of borrowings as of September 30, 2024 is primarily associated with the Perceptive Term Loan Facility entered into with Perceptive Credit Holdings IV, LP, in November 2022 and was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis, excluding the fair value of the Perceptive Warrant (as defined below) issued in conjunction with the transaction. The carrying value of outstanding borrowings approximates the fair value as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The table below presents the carrying and fair values of outstanding borrowings, which are classified as Level 2, as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

The financial liabilities that are measured and recorded at estimated fair value on a recurring basis consist of our contingent consideration associated with our previous acquisition of Indi, the warrant liabilities granted as consideration for the Perceptive Term Loan Facility (see Note 6 -Debt), and contingent value rights granted to certain holders of our previously converted Series F Preferred Stock, which were accounted for as liabilities and remeasured through our condensed statements of operations.

The table below presents the reported fair values of contingent consideration and warrant liabilities, which are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

The following table presents the changes in contingent consideration for the dates indicated (in thousands):

The following table presents the changes in contingent consideration and warrant liabilities for the dates indicated (in thousands):

Contingent Consideration

In connection with the acquisition of Indi in 2018, the Company recorded contingent consideration for amounts contingently payable to Indi's selling shareholders pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase agreement (the Indi APA). The contingent consideration arrangement requires additional consideration to be paid by the Company to such shareholders upon attainment of a three-consecutive month gross margin target of $2.0 million within theseven-year period after the acquisition date, which was achieved during the three months ended June 30, 2021. Under the terms of the original agreement, when the gross margin target was achieved, the Company was required to issue 2,520,108 shares of common stock. For the six months following the achievement of the gross margin target, Indi had the option to require the Company to redeem these common shares for $37.0 million in cash over eight equal quarterly installments. If Indi elected to not exercise its option, the Company had 12 months to repurchase the common stock in two equal and consecutive quarterly cash installments totaling$37.0 million.

In August 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the original agreement in which all parties agreed to forgo the issuance of common stock and agreed that the Company would, in lieu thereof, make six quarterly installments of approximately $4.6 million each beginning in January 2022 and a final payment of approximately $9.3 million in July 2023 for a total of $37.0 million (the Milestone Payments and each individually a Milestone Payment). The aggregate amount of payments owed by the Company under this amendment is the same as if Indi had exercised the put right or the Company had exercised the call right provided for in the original agreement.

On April 7, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Indi APA, in which the parties agreed to restructure the Milestone Payments. The Company made five quarterly installments of $2.0 million each beginning in April 2022, three quarterly installments of $3.0 million which began in July 2023, one installment of $5.0 million in April 2024, and one installment of $8.4 million in July 2024. In addition, the Company agreed to an exit fee of approximately $6.1 million to be paid in October 2024. Interest shall accrue on the difference between the payment schedule as agreed in the August 2021 amendment and the April 2022 amended payment schedule, at an aggregate per annum rate equal to 10%, with such interest to be payable quarterly on the following installment payment date. Our ability to make these payments was subject to ongoing compliance under the Perceptive Term Loan Facility. On September 30, 2024, the Company obtained consent from Perceptive and prepaid the October 1, 2024 exit fee of $6.1 million to Indi.

The contingent consideration liability was accounted for at fair value and subject to certain unobservable inputs. The significant unobservable inputs used in the measurement of the fair value included the probability of successful achievement of the specified product gross margin targets, the period in which the targets were expected to be achieved, and discount rates which ranged from 11% to 16%. As a result of the achievement of the gross margin target, the only remaining significant unobservable input used in the measurement of fair value included the discount rate since all other inputs became fixed and determinable. Subsequent changes to the contingent consideration following the achievement of the gross margin target were recorded as ‘Interest expense’ in the condensed statements of operations resulting from the passage of time and fixed payment schedule.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded $0.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, compared to $1.0 million and $3.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, in interest expense due to the passage of time and fixed payment schedule.

In accordance with ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, cash paid to settle the contingent consideration liability recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date (including measurement-period adjustments) should be reflected as a cash outflow for financing activities while the remaining portion of the amount paid should be reflected as a cash outflow from operating activities in the statements of cash flows. All 2024 Milestone Payments are classified as cash outflows from operating activities in the Company's statements of cash flows.

Warrant Liabilities

On November 21, 2022, as consideration for the Perceptive Term Loan Facility (see Note 6 -Debt), the Company issued Perceptive a warrant to purchase up to 5,000,000 sharesof the Company's common stock (the Perceptive Warrant), including Initial Warrants (as definedin Note 8 -Equity below) and Tranche B and C Warrants. The Initial Warrants are equity classified (see Note 8 -Equity) while the Tranche B and C Warrants were initially classified as liabilities and recognized at fair value. On December 15, 2023 (the Tranche B Borrowing Date), the Company exercised its ability to draw the Tranche B loan (see Note 6 –Debt). In connection with the Tranche B draw, the Company remeasured the Tranche B Warrants through the Tranche B Borrowing Date and recorded the change in fair value through the statements of operations and, subsequently, reclassified the fair value to additional paid-in capital (see Note 8 –Equity). The fair value of the Tranche C Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes model and subject to certain unobservable inputs. The significant unobservable inputs used in the measurement of the fair value included the fair value of the Company's common stock, risk-free rate, the volatility of common stock, and the probability of the expected borrowing. The Tranche C loan had a commitment date through September 30, 2024 and, as of that date, the Company did not exercise its ability to draw the Tranche C loan. Therefore, the associated Tranche C Warrants expired and are no longer exercisable.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded zero as a change in fair value through the condensed statements of operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a $1.4 million and $1.3 million loss, respectively, as a change in fair value through the condensed statements of operations due to changes in unobservable inputs. This is a result of changes in the probability of our ability to draw on Tranche B and C loans.

Contingent Value Rights

In January 2016, the Company issued shares of Series F Preferred Stock (the Series F Offering) that were subsequently converted into common stock in connection with the Company's initial public offering in October 2020. In connection with the Series F Offering, investors who purchased more than their pro-rata amount in the financing received a calculated number of contingent value rights (CVRs). One CVR represents 0.00375% of the Company’s interest in the drug ficlatuzumab, which began a Phase 3 clinical trial in January 2024 (see Note 13 -Commitments and Contingencies below). In January 2016, the Company issued 3,999 CVRs, or 15% interest in the drug ficlatuzumab, originally valued at $0.5 million. The initial estimated value of the CVRs were recorded as a liability and as a reduction to the Series F proceeds. Subsequent to recoupment of our initial co-development costs, upon receipt of a milestone, royalty, or any other type of payment from the Company’s ownership rights in the drug, the Company is required to make a cash payment to the CVR holders equal to 15% of net proceeds, as defined. During thethree and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded zero as a change in fair value through the condensed statements of operations due to the probability of receiving net proceeds in excess of our initial co-development costs.

Note 5 – Supplementary Balance Sheet Information

Property and equipment consist of the following (in thousands):

Depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was$1.0 million and$2.8 million, respectively, compared to $0.3 million and $0.9 million for thethree and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

Accrued liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):

Note 6 – Debt

Our long-term debt primarily consists of notes payable associated with our Perceptive Term Loan Facility which is described in further detail below. Long-term notes payable were as follows (in thousands):

Perceptive Term Loan Facility

On November 16, 2022 (the Closing Date), the Company entered into a Credit Agreement and Guaranty (the Credit Agreement) with Perceptive Credit Holdings IV, LP as lender and administrative agent (the Lender). The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured delayed draw term loan facility with Perceptive Advisors LLC (Perceptive) (the Perceptive Term Loan Facility). The Tranche A Loan, inan aggregate amount of up to $30.0 million (the Tranche A Loan), was funded under the Perceptive Term Loan Facility on November 21, 2022 (the Funding Date). The Company's net proceeds from the Tranche A Loan were approximately $27.9 million, after deducting debt issuance costs and expenses. In addition to the Tranche A Loan, the Perceptive Term Loan Facility included an additional Tranche B Loan, in an aggregate amount of up to $10.0 million, and an additional Tranche C Loan, in an aggregate amount of up to $10.0 million, which were accessible by the Company so long as the Company satisfied certain customary conditions precedent, including revenue milestones. On December 15, 2023, the Company exercised its ability to draw the Tranche B loan for $10.0 million. The Tranche C loan had a commitment date through September 30, 2024 and, as of that date, the Company didnot exercise its ability to draw the Tranche C loan. The Perceptive Term Loan Facility has a maturity date of November 21, 2027 (the Maturity Date) and provides for an interest-only period during the term of the loan with principal due at the Maturity Date.

Interest Rate

The Perceptive Term Loan Facility will accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) forward-looking one-month term SOFR as posted by CME Group Inc. and (b)3.0% per annum, plus an applicable margin of 9.0%. As of September 30, 2024, the stated interest rate was approxima tely 13.9%.

Amortization and Prepayment

On the Maturity Date, the Company is required to pay the Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount underlying the Perceptive Term Loan Facility and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Prior to the Maturity Date, there will be no scheduled principal payments under the Perceptive Term Loan Facility. The Perceptive Term Loan Facility may be prepaid at any time, subject to a prepayment premium equal to 2% to 10% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount being prepaid, depending on the date of prepayment.

Security Instruments and Warrants

Pursuant to a Security Agreement, dated as of the Funding Date (the Security Agreement), between the Company and the Lender, substantially all of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first lien perfected security interest on all of the Company’s assets, subject to customary exceptions.

As consideration for the Credit Agreement, the Company has issued, on the Funding Date, the Perceptive Warrant of up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, including the Initial Warrants which are equity classified at a per share exercise price equal to $1.0648 which is equal to the 10-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock, on the business day immediately prior to the Closing Date of the Tranche A Loan. In connection with the Tranche B borrowing, additional warrants became exercisable into 1,000,000 shares of common stock with a per share exercise price equal to $1.0648, which is equal to the Initial Warrant exercise price and expire on December 15, 2033 (the Tranche B Warrants).

In addition to the Initial and Tranche B Warrants, additional warrants would become exercisable into 1,000,000 shares of common stock concurrently with the borrowing date of the Tranche C Loan (the Tranche C Warrants).The Company accounted for the Tranche C Warrants as liabilities as the Tranche C Warrants did not meet the criteria for equity treatment (see Note 4 –Fair Value). The Tranche C loan was not drawn by the loan commitment date and the associated Tranche C Warrants expired and are no longer exercisable.

Representations, Warranties, Covenants, and Events of Default

The Credit Agreement contains certain representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants, financial covenants, and conditions that are customarily required for similar financings. The affirmative covenants, among other things, require the Company to undertake various reporting and notice requirements, maintain insurance and maintain in full force and effect all Regulatory Approvals, Material Agreements, Material Intellectual Property (each as defined in the Credit Agreement) and other rights, interests or assets (whether tangible or intangible) reasonably necessary for the operations of the Company’s business. The negative covenants restrict or limit the ability of the Company to, among other things and subject to certain exceptions contained in the Credit Agreement, incur new indebtedness; create liens on assets; engage in certain fundamental corporate changes, such as mergers or acquisitions, or changes to the Company’s business activities; make certain Investments or Restricted Payments (each as defined in the Credit Agreement); change its fiscal year; pay dividends; repay other certain indebtedness; engage in certain affiliate transactions; or enter into, amend or terminate any other agreements that has the impact of restricting the Company’s ability to make loan repayments under the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Company must (i) at all times prior to the Maturity Date maintain a minimum cash balance of $2.5 million; and (ii) as of the last day of each fiscal quarter commencing on the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023, meet certain minimum net revenue threshold amounts agreed to between the Company and Perceptive.

On May 10, 2023, the Company entered into the First Amendment with the Lender, whereby subject to the terms and conditions of the First Amendment, the Minimum Net Revenue Covenant (as defined in the Credit Agreement) was amended to reduce the relevant threshold of each fiscal quarter commencing on the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2023 through and including the fiscal quarter ending

March 31, 2024. As consideration for the First Amendment, the Company agreed to issue to Perceptive a warrant to purchase up to 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the First Amendment Warrants) which are equity classified at a per share exercise price equal to $1.6254 (see Note 8 -Equity).

On August 4, 2023 (the Second Amendment Effective Date), the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Guaranty (the Second Amendment) with Perceptive as lender and administrative agent and the Company, as borrower, whereby subject to the terms and conditions of the Second Amendment, the Minimum Net Revenue Covenant (as defined in the Credit Agreement) was amended to reduce the relevant threshold as of the last day of each fiscal quarter commencing on the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2024 through and including the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2025.

Under the terms of the Second Amendment, the conditions precedent for drawing on the Tranche B Loan were amended to (i) reduce the trailing twelve-month revenue milestone and (ii) add the receipt of aggregate cash proceeds of at least $27.5 million from an equity offering of the Company's common stock. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the amended conditions precedent were met and on December 15, 2023, the Company exercised its ability to draw the Tranche B loan for $10.0 million.

On February 29, 2024 (the Third Amendment Effective Date), the Company entered into the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Guaranty (the Third Amendment) with Perceptive as lender and administrative agent and the Company, as borrower, whereby subject to the terms and conditions of the Third Amendment, the Minimum Net Revenue Covenant (as defined in the Credit Agreement) was amended to reduce the relevant threshold as of the last day of each fiscal quarter commencing on the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2024 through and including the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2025.

The Credit Agreement also contains certain customary Events of Default which include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest, or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, cross-defaults to material contracts, certain regulatory-related events and events constituting a change of control. As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive and financial covenants associated with its borrowings. The occurrence of an Event of Default could result in, among other things, the declaration that all outstanding principal and interest under the Perceptive Term Loan Facility are immediately due and payable in whole or in part.

On the Closing Date, the Initial Warrants and Additional Warrants were valued at $2.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, estimated settlement probabilities and estimated exercise prices. As a result of the fees paid to Perceptive and the value of the Perceptive Warrant, the Company recognized a discount on the Perceptive Term Loan in the amount of$5.2 million. The First Amendment Warrants were valued at $0.7 million using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which the recognized as a discount on the Perceptive Term Loan Facility. The Company recorded the debt discount as a reduction to the principal amount of the debt and is amortized as interest expense over the life of the debt.

Scheduled principal repayments (maturities) of long-term obligations were as follows (in thousands):

On March 11, 2022, the Company entered into a Lease Agreement (the Lease) with Centennial Valley Properties I, LLC and subsequently assigned to CVP I Owner LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (the Landlord) for office and laboratory space in Louisville, Colorado (the Leased Premises). Theinitial term of the Lease istwelve years (the Initial Term) from the commencement date, which was April 1, 2023 (the Commencement Date). The Company hastwo renewal options to extend the term of the Lease for an additional seven- or ten-year terms for each renewal.

Under the Lease, the Company is leasing approximately 79,980 square feet at the Leased Premises. The Company will pay base rent over the life of the Lease beginning at approximately $227,000 per month and escalating, based on fixed escalation provisions, to approximately $326,000 per month, plus certain operating expenses and taxes. The Company's obligation to pay base rent shall be abated, commencing as of the Commencement Date and ending on March 31, 2024 (the Abated Rent Period). Further, the Company's obligation to pay base rent with respect to a portion of the area of the Lease Premises equal to 19,980 square feet shall be abated (the Partial Abated Rent), commencing as of April 1, 2024 and ending on March 31, 2025 (the Partial Abated Rent Period). Pursuant to a work letter entered by the parties in connection with the Lease, the Landlord contributed an aggregate of $18.8 million toward the cost of construction and improvements for the Leased Premises and the Company exercised its option for an additional tenant improvement allowance of $2.0 million (the Extra Allowance Amount). The Company will repay the Extra Allowance Amount actually funded by the Landlord in equal monthly payments with an interest rate of 6% per year over the Initial Term excluding any part of the Abated Rent Period or Partial Abated Rent Period, which shall start to accrue on the date that the Landlord first disburses the Extra Allowance Amount. The Company made an accounting policy election to reduce the right-of-use asset and lease liability at lease commencement because the Lease specifies a maximum level of reimbursement for tenant improvements which are probable of being incurred and within the Company's control. Due to the tenant improvement allowances at the accounting lease commencement date and rent abatement periods described above, the Company expects the lease liability to accrete to approximately $25.5 million by March 2025. The Company utilized the total $20.8 million in tenant improvement allowances for capital expenditures for leasehold improvements throughout the year ended December 31, 2023.

The Lease includes various covenants, indemnities, defaults, termination rights, and other provisions customary for lease transactions of this nature. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, a $5.0 million cash collateralized letter of credit under the operating lease agreement was released and the funds were subsequently transferred to the Landlord as a refundable deposit (subject to contingent reduction over the term of the lease) to secure the performance of the Company’s obligations. The $5.0 million refundable deposit is included within 'Other long-term assets' in the condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2024.

Operating lease expense for all operating leases was $0.6 million and $1.7 millionfor the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $1.1 million and $3.3 million for thethree and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

Note 9 – Revenue and Accounts Receivable Credit Concentration

Wederive our revenue from two primary sources: (i) providing diagnostic testing in the clinical setting (Diagnostic Tests); and (ii) providing biopharmaceutical companies with services that include diagnostic research, clinical research, clinical trial testing, development and testing services provided outside the clinical setting and governed by individual contracts with third parties as well as development and commercialization of companion diagnostics. We also recognize revenue from other services, including amounts derived from licensing our technologies (Biopharmaceutical Services and other).

Diagnostic test revenues consist of blood-based lung tests which are recognized in the amount expected to be received in exchange for diagnostic tests when the diagnostic tests are delivered. The Company conducts diagnostic tests and delivers the completed test results to the prescribing physician or patient, as applicable. The fees for diagnostic tests are billed either to a third party such as Medicare, medical facilities, commercial insurance payers, or to the patient. The Company determines the transaction price related to its diagnostic test contracts by considering the nature of the payer, test type, and historical price concessions granted to groups of customers. For diagnostic test revenue, the Company estimates the transaction price, which is the amount of consideration it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for providing services based on its historical collection experience, using a portfolio approach. The Company recognizes revenues for diagnostic tests upon delivery of the tests to the physicians requesting the tests or patient, as applicable.

Services revenue consists of on-market tests, pipeline tests, custom diagnostic testing, and other scientific services for a purpose as defined by any individual customer, which is often with biopharmaceutical companies. The performance obligations and related revenue for these sales is defined by a written agreement between the Company and the customer. These services are generally completed upon the delivery of testing results, or other contractually defined milestone(s), to the customer. Revenue for these services is recognized upon delivery of the completed test results, or upon completion of the contractual milestone(s). In addition, other revenue includes amounts derived from licensing our digital sequencing technologies to our international laboratory partners. We are compensated through royalty-based payments for the licensed technology, and depending on the nature of the technology licensing arrangements and considering factors including but not limited to enforceable right to payment and payment terms, and if an asset with alternative use is created, these revenues are recognized in the period when royalty-bearing sales occur.

Revenues consisted of the following (in thousands):
