(3)Includes substance abuse testing product revenues.
Current report
Consolidated net revenues decreased 55% to $39.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $89.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Current report
Sales of the Company's Diagnostics products increased 13% to $22.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $19.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This increase in revenues is largely due to higher international HIV revenues of approximately $2.4 million primarily driven by customer ordering patterns of sales in Africa.
Current report
Risk assessment revenue decreased 25% due to the loss of customers to competing products. The Company has announced that it will discontinue this line of business by the end of 2024.
Current report
Non-product and services revenues increased 52% to $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 due to recognizing royalty income in the third quarter of 2024 and none in the third quarter of 2023.
Current report
Consolidated gross profit margin decreased to 42.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from 49.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The largest driver of the margin decline was due to the lower volume in InteliSwab® sales driven by less units produced and sold and a lower average selling price based on contractual pricing. Furthermore, the lower units produced resulted in lower overhead absorption of fixed costs as compared to the prior year period. Gross margin was also negatively impacted by the increased sales of international product which generate lower margins coupled with the lower margins contributed by genomics products. The decline in gross margins was partially offset by the impact of the exit of the Molecular Services business which historically caused a drag on consolidated gross margin.
Current report
Consolidated operating loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $6.0 million, a decline from the $10.9 million operating income reported for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The operating income reported in the third quarter of 2023 was largely a result of higher revenues and gross margins generated by the Company's InteliSwab® product and was partially offset by the inclusion of $6.2 million in impairment loss. In 2023, the Company began implementing cost cutting measures and has benefited from this in the three months ended September 30, 2024 with a $4.2 million reduction in operating expense compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Current report
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to September 30, 2023.
Current report
(3)Includes substance abuse testing product revenues.

Previous report
Consolidated net revenues decreased 36% to $54.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $85.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Previous report
Sales of the Company's Diagnostics products decreased 5% to $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $19.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This decrease in revenues is largely due to lower domestic and international HIV revenues of approximately $2.3 million primarily driven by customer ordering patterns partially offset by a combined increase in global HCV revenues and Syphilis revenues of approximately $1.2 million. The increase in HCV revenues is primarily due to new customer orders and customer ordering patterns and the Syphilis revenues are generated from the Company's new distribution agreements.
Previous report
Other products and services revenues decreased 5% to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Previous report
Consolidated gross profit margin increased to 45.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from 30.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2023. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded $7.0 million of accelerated depreciation associated with the wind-down of InteliSwab® manual assembly in Thailand as the Company made the decision to onshore and automate manufacturing of this product at its Pennsylvania facilities. In addition, also contributing to the increased margins is improved overhead absorption and lower scrap expense partially offset by a negative impact in product mix caused by a higher volume of sales of lower margin products.
Previous report
Consolidated operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $2.7 million, a 57.4% improvement from the $6.4 million operating loss reported for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Results for the three months ended June 30, 2024 benefited from a $6.2 million reduction in operating expense offset by lower gross profit dollars driven by the decrease in revenues. Results for the three months ended June 30, 2024 included $1.1 million of impairment losses compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Previous report
Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2024, excluding the impairment charge, decreased 19% to $26.4 million from $32.6 million in the second quarter of 2023 reflecting the impact of the Company's cost saving measures and headcount reductions.

Current wording
Molecular Services revenues, which are largely derived from the Company's laboratory services, decreased 53% to $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 from $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Previous wording
Non-product and services revenues decreased 45% to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as a result of no royalty income in the second quarter of 2024 as the royalty agreement for sample collection kits expired in June 2023. Further reducing the Company's non-product and services revenue is lower funding for research and development activities largely as a result of the end of our agreement with Biomedical Advanced Research Authority ("BARDA") which provided funding to obtain clearance of a premarket notification ("510(k)") and Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 waiver of our InteliSwab® tests. The Company has communicated to BARDA that it does not intend to pursue further development of this clearance.
Current wording
Non-product and services revenues decreased 66% to $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 from $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as a result of lower funding for research and development activities largely as a result of the end of our agreement with Biomedical Advanced Research Authority ("BARDA") which provided funding to obtain clearance of a premarket notification ("510(k)") and Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 waiver of our InteliSwab® tests. The Company has communicated to BARDA that it does not intend to pursue further development of this clearance. Further contributing to the decline in non-product revenues is lower royalty income in 2024 as one of the Company's royalty agreements for sample collection kits expired in June 2023.
Previous wording
Consolidated gross profit margin increased to 44.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from 38.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This improvement in margins was due to $7.0 million of accelerated depreciation recorded in the second quarter of 2023 associated with the wind-down of InteliSwab® manual assembly in Thailand as the Company on-shores and automates the manufacturing of this product at its Pennsylvania facilities. In addition, reduced salary and benefits due to the reduction in workforce experienced in 2023 contributed to improved overhead absorption and lower product scrap expense also contributed to the increased margins in the first half of 2024. These improvement in margins were partially offset by the decline in other non-product revenues which contribute 100% to gross margin and a shift in product mix of increased revenues from lower margin products.
Current wording
Consolidated gross profit margin increased to 44.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 from 41.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Gross margins in 2023 included $7.0 million of accelerated depreciation associated with the wind-down of InteliSwab® manual assembly in Thailand as the Company began to on-shore and automate manufacturing of this product at its Pennsylvania facilities. In addition, reduced salary and benefits due to the reduction in workforce experienced in 2023 and 2024 contributed to improved overhead absorption. Lastly, lower product scrap expense helped to increase margins for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These improvement in margins were partially offset by the decline in InteliSwab® revenues and a shift in product mix of increased revenues from lower margin product. Other non-product revenues which contribute 100% to gross margins also declined for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
Non-product and services revenues decreased 73% to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as a result of lower royalty income in the first half of 2024 as one of the Company's royalty agreement for sample collection kits expired in June 2023. Further reducing the Company's non-product and services revenue is a result of lower funding for research and development activities largely as a result of the end of our agreement with Biomedical Advanced Research Authority ("BARDA") which provided funding to obtain clearance of a premarket notification ("510(k)") and Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 waiver of our InteliSwab® tests. The Company has communicated to BARDA that it does not intend to pursue further development of this clearance.
