Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2025

  1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of the Business

Standard BioTools Inc. (“Standard BioTools” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in South San Francisco, California.

The Company develops, manufactures and sells a diversified range of instrumentation, consumables, and services that help scientists and biomedical researchers develop better therapeutics faster. Its proprietary multi-omics tools provide unique insights into human health, immune response, and disease states across a broad range of applications, including proteomics and genomics, and other areas of translational and clinical research.

The Company works with leading academic, government, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, plant and animal research, and clinical laboratories worldwide, focusing on the most pressing needs in translational and clinical research, including oncology, immunology, and immunotherapy.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding financial reporting. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2025, results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024 was derived from the Company’s audited annual financial statements included in the Annual Report but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Financial Statements”) included in the Company's Annual Report.

On June 22, 2025, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Illumina. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Illumina will acquire all of the equity interests of SomaLogic, Inc. (“SomaLogic”), Sengenics Corporation LLC (“Sengenics LLC”) and Sengenics Corporation Pte Ltd (“Sengenics Pte” and together with Sengenics LLC, “Sengenics”) (such equity interests, collectively, the “Shares”), each a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company that operates the Company's aptamer-based and functional proteomics business, including KREX, Single SOMAmer, translational and diagnostic assays (collectively, the “SomaScan Business”) (such transaction, the “Transaction”). The Transaction does not include the Company's mass cytometry and microfluidics businesses, which are being retained by the Company. The Company expects the Transaction to close in the first half of 2026.

Consistent with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Company classifies disposal groups as held-for-sale in the reporting period when all the held-for-sale classification criteria are met. Disposal groups held for sale are presented as discontinued operations when the disposal represents a strategic shift with a major effect on operations, and the operations and cash flows are clearly distinguishable from the rest of the entity. Upon classification as held-for-sale, assets and liabilities are presented as held-for-sale and measured at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, and upon classification as discontinued operations, results of operations are reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

The Company determined that the SomaScan Business met the held-for-sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria in the second quarter of 2025. Accordingly, the Company has classified the results of the SomaScan Business as discontinued operations in its condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. Additionally, the assets and liabilities of the SomaScan

Business are classified as held-for-sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The cash flows related to discontinued operations have not been segregated and are included in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The discussions in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements relate solely to the Company's continuing operations, unless otherwise noted. For further discussion of the discontinued operations related to the SomaScan Business, refer to Note 3, Discontinued Operations.

Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025.

Segment Reporting

The Company identifies operating and reportable segments based on how the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) manages the business, allocates resources, makes operating decisions and evaluates operating performance. The Company's Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is its CODM. The Company reassesses its operating segments when facts and circumstances suggest that there may have been a change in the way that the Company is managed.

Historically, the Company has managed its business astwo operating and reportable segments: proteomics and genomics. Subsequent to the completion of the merger (the “Merger”) with SomaLogic on January 5, 2024, the CODM continued managing the business as proteomics and genomics segments, with SomaLogic attributed to the proteomics segment. During the first quarter of 2025, after the full integration of SomaLogic and assessment of 2024 results, the CODM evaluated how the fully integrated, combined company should be managed. Subsequently, the CODM began managing the business on a consolidated basis, as a multi-omics company. Therefore, the Company reassessed its operating and reportable segments, concluding that it has one operating and reportable segment: the consolidated company.

The segment information presented reflects the Company's continuing operations and excludes discontinued operations. Due to the resegmentation that was implemented in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, prior period segment results have been recast to conform to the current segment presentation. See Note 12, Segment Reporting, for more information on the new reportable segment.

Investments in Marketable Debt Securities

Short-term and long-term investments consist of U.S. treasury securities. Short-term investments include securities that mature within 12 months, while long-term investments include securities with maturities of 12 months or more. The Company classifies its short-term and long-term investments as available-for-sale securities, and reports available-for-sale securities at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, and interest and dividends earned on available-for-sale securities are included in interest income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The cost of investments for purposes of computing realized and unrealized gains and losses is based on the specific identification method. The Company determines the appropriate classification of its debt securities at the time of purchase based on their maturities and re-evaluates such classification at each balance sheet date.

At each reporting date, the Company reviews available-for-sale marketable debt securities in an unrealized loss position to determine whether an allowance for credit loss is required. Specifically, the Company evaluates (i) whether it intends to sell the securities or (ii) whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases. If the aforementioned criteria is met, such marketable debt security's amortized cost basis will be written down to its fair value through earnings along with any existing allowance for credit losses. For available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position that do not meet this criteria, the Company will evaluate whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, the Company considers the severity of the impairment, any changes in interest rates, underlying credit ratings, and forecasted recovery, among other factors. The credit-related portion of unrealized losses, and any subsequent improvements, are recorded in interest income and other, net in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company's investments are in U.S. treasury securities issued by the U.S. government and as such have a low level of inherent risk; generally any changes in their value are attributable to changes in interest rates and market liquidity. The Company hasnot recognized any impairment or credit losses related to its investments during the periods presented.

Any unrealized losses from declines in fair value below the amortized cost basis as a result of non-credit factors and unrealized gains are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

The Company excludes accrued interest from the fair value and amortized cost basis of its short-term and long-term investments.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosed in the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Significant estimates and assumptions which form the basis of amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the identification of performance obligations in contracts with customers; standalone selling prices of the Company's performance obligations; timing of revenue recognition; fair value measurements; net realizable value of inventory; income taxes; the fair value of intangible assets acquired in business combinations; and impairment of long-lived assets (property and equipment, and operating lease right-of-use assets). The Company bases its estimates on current facts and circumstances, historical experience, forecasted results, and various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable. The Company obtains reports from third-party valuation experts to inform and support estimates related to certain fair value measurements.

Recent Accounting Changes and Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the effects of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement: Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), to improve disclosures about an entity's expenses. Upon adoption, we will be required to disclose in the notes to the financial statements a disaggregation of certain expense categories included within the expense captions on the face of the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026. The amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the effects of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2025, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025-05”), which provides a practical expedient for estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. ASU 2025-05 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and interim periods within those annual reporting periods and should be applied prospectively.

The new guidance excludes from derivative accounting non-exchange-traded contracts with underlyings that are based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. ASU 2025-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-06 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

  1. Business Combinations

SomaLogic

On January 5, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed the Merger with SomaLogic, whereby SomaLogic and its subsidiaries became wholly owned subsidiaries of Standard BioTools. Upon completion of the Merger, each share of SomaLogic common stock was exchanged for 1.11 shares of the Company's common stock. The fair value of the consideration transferred in connection with the Merger was $444.2 million. As a result of the Merger, the Company recognized a gain on bargain purchase of $25.2 million. The purchase accountingfor the Merger was finalized as of December 31, 2024, and no measurement period adjustments were recorded subsequent to the Closing Date.

Sengenics

On November 21, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in Sengenics. For additional details regarding both business combinations, refer to Note 3, Business Combinations in the Company's 2024 Financial Statements.

The assets and liabilities of SomaLogic and Sengenics, or the SomaScan Business, have been classified as held-for-sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the results of operations for the SomaScan Business have been classified as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, for all periods presented. Refer to Note 3, Discontinued Operations for additional details.

  1. Discontinued Operations

As described in Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, on June 22, 2025, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement with Illumina for the divestiture of the SomaScan Business. SomaLogic had previously entered into a collaboration agreement with Illumina in December 2021 for the joint development and commercialization of co-branded kits combining Illumina's Next Generation Sequencing technology with SomaScan technology (as amended, the “Collaboration Agreement”). Additionally, on June 22, 2025, SomaLogic and Illumina executed an amendment to the Collaboration Agreement that provides additional non-exclusive, royalty-free licenses to certain intellectual property. The amendment did not impact the transaction price, performance obligations, or timing of revenue recognition under ASC 606. Illumina's acquisition of the SomaScan Business is intended to facilitate more effective execution of this collaboration strategy, and the Collaboration Agreement will be settled upon closing of the Transaction.

The first commercial sale of the co-branded kits occurred in September 2025, which triggered the recognition of $0.6 million in revenue during the third quarter, including $0.1 million released from deferred revenue previously established under the Collaboration Agreement, described further below. Concurrent with this commercialization, the Company updated its forecast for future sales under the Collaboration Agreement, resulting in a decrease to the transaction price from$158.4 million to $155.5 million, primarily due to a decrease in forecasted royalties from 2025 sales.

Illumina has agreed to acquire the SomaScan Business for aggregate cash consideration of up to $425 million, comprising (i) an upfront payment of $350 million in cash, payable at the closing of the Transaction, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) up to $75 million in earnout payments, payable upon the achievement of specified targets for net revenue generated from SomaScan assay services or any other SOMAmer-based assay services and sales of SOMAmer-based array kits and SOMAmer-based next-generation sequencing library preparation kits in fiscal years 2025 and 2026.

In addition, the Purchase Agreement contemplates that, at the closing of the Transaction, as additional consideration, the Company and Illumina will enter into (i) a royalty agreement, pursuant to which the Company will be entitled to a specified royalty stream on net revenues generated from sales of SOMAmer-based next-generation sequencing library preparation kits, (ii) a license agreement, pursuant to which Illumina will provide a specified license to the Company for the intellectual property relating to Single SOMAmers for potential development and commercialization of Single SOMAmer reagents for use in single plex affinity assays and (iii) a royalty agreement, pursuant to which the Company will be entitled to a specified royalty stream on net revenues generated from sales of Single SOMAmers. The royalty rates are expected be low- to mid-single digit percentages.

The consummation of the Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others, the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period (and any extension thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. The Company expects the Transaction to close in the first half of 2026.

The Purchase Agreement also includes customary termination provisions, including, among others, the ability of the Company or Illumina to terminate the Purchase Agreement if the Transaction has not been consummated on or before March 23, 2026, subject to up to three automatic three-month extensions under certain circumstances. If the Purchase Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances, Illumina will be required to pay the Company a reverse termination fee in cash equal to $14.5 million.

(1)

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $0.6 million related to the transaction price under the Collaboration Agreement with Illumina, which primarily reflects Illumina's initial exercise of its material right to be provided with SOMAmer reagents for commercialization of the co-branded kits. The Company has classified the $0.6 million within discontinued operations consistent with the treatment of all SomaScan Business-related activities. Out of the $0.6 million recognized, $0.1 million was released from the deferred revenue balance previously established under the Collaboration Agreement. See footnote 2 under the table below for more information related to the deferred revenue.

(2)

Transaction expenses relate directly to costs attributable to the sale of the SomaScan Business.

Details of assets and liabilities held for sale included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are as follows:

(1)

In connection with the classification of the SomaScan Business as discontinued operations, the Company allocated $111.9 million of goodwill, representing 100% of the Company's total goodwill, to the discontinued operations. The allocation was determined based on the relative fair values of the disposal group and the remaining business, consistent with guidance in ASC 350-20.

The fair value of the disposal group was determined based on the agreed-upon sale proceeds of $350.0 million plus the estimated fair value of contingent consideration totaling $396.9 million. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model that incorporated probability-weighted scenarios based on the underlying performance metrics and payment terms. The fair value of the remaining business was determined using the Company's market capitalization, adjusted for cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, as of June 22, 2025, which is supported by Level 1 inputs under the fair value hierarchy in ASC 820.

Based on this relative fair value assessment, the disposal group represented more than 100% of the total enterprise value, resulting in the allocation of all goodwill to the discontinued operations. This allocation reflects that the expected transaction proceeds exceed the market's valuation of the Company's total enterprise value, indicating that substantially all of the Company's goodwill should be allocated to the divested business.

As a result of allocating 100% of goodwill to the discontinued operations based on the relative fair value analysis described above, the Company performed an impairment assessment of its remaining long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360-10-35. The Company conducted a recoverability test by comparing the carrying amount of the remaining long-lived assets to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the Company’s remaining asset group. Based on this analysis, the undiscounted cash flows from the remaining asset group exceeded the carrying value of its long-lived assets, and accordingly, no impairment charge was recognized during the three or six months ended June 30, 2025.

(2)

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $29.9 million and $30.0 million, respectively, of deferred revenue related to the Collaboration Agreement was not included in the disposal group held for sale as SomaLogic's obligation to provide SOMAmer reagents under the Collaboration Agreement will be settled upon closing of the Transaction and will not be transferred to Illumina as a legal obligation. See footnote 1 under the table above for more details about the deferred revenue related to the Collaboration Agreement.

  1. Commit ments and Contingencies

Other Commitments

The Company has entered into several license and patent agreements. Under these agreements, the Company pays annual license maintenance fees, non-refundable license issuance fees, and royalties as a percentage of net sales for the sale or sublicense of products using the licensed technology. Future payments related to these license agreements are indeterminable. The Company does not expect the license payments to be material in any particular year.

Following the Merger, the Company is responsible for SomaLogic’s liabilities and obligations, including with respect to legal, financial, regulatory, and compliance matters. These liabilities and obligations have resulted in and will continue to result in additional cost and expense by the Company and, if the Company has underestimated the amount of these costs and expenses or if the Company fails to satisfy any such liabilities or obligations, the Company may not realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger and there may be an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors. Further, it is possible that there may be unknown, contingent or other liabilities, obligations or other problems that may arise in the future, the existence and/or magnitude of which the Company was previously unaware. Any such liabilities, obligations or other problems could have an adverse effect on the company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. With respect to these additional matters, the Company is not able to estimate the possible loss or range of losses that could be incurred.

Indemnification

From time to time, the Company has entered into agreements in the ordinary course of business, with certain business partners, customers and suppliers, that contain indemnification provisions. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company may indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse the indemnified parties on a case-by-case basis for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties in connection with any patent or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect to the Company’s products. The term of the indemnification provisions within these agreements is generally perpetual from the time of the execution of the respective agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these agreements is typically not limited to a specific amount.

In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its officers, directors and certain other employees. With certain exceptions, these agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses including, among others, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding that may arise by reason of their status or service as officers, directors, or employees.

The Company does not have any indemnification liabilities related to these indemnification obligations recorded on its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. These include disputes and lawsuits related to intellectual property, mergers and acquisitions, licensing, contract law, tax, regulatory, distribution arrangements, employee relations and other matters. Periodically, the Company reviews the status of each matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and a range of possible loss can be estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. As of September 30, 2025, the Company does not have any material losses accrued on its condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Stockholder Litigation

On December 12, 2023 two separate stockholder complaints were filed in the District of Delaware. The complaints asserted claims under Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act for allegedly causing the filing with the SEC on November 14, 2023 of a materially deficient registration statement on Form S-4. Among other remedies, the plaintiffs sought to enjoin a stockholder vote on the proposed Merger. These complaints were voluntarily dismissed. On December 13, 2023, a complaint was filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery against SomaLogic and certain officers and directors alleging Breach of Fiduciary Duty and Aiding and Abetting Breach of Fiduciary Duty. This complaint also sought an injunction postponing the proposed business combination between SomaLogic and the Company, which was denied by the Court on January 4, 2024. An amended complaint was filed on June 20, 2024, containing primarily the same allegations, while removing some of the defendants. The remaining defendants filed a motion to dismiss on July 5, 2024, and served an opening brief on August 19, 2024. The Plaintiffs’ opposition brief was filed on December 2, 2024, and the defendants’ reply brief was filed on March 14, 2025. Oral argument was held on the motion to dismiss on July 10, 2025. On August 7, 2025, the Court issued a bench decision denying the defendants’ motion to dismiss. The Company filed its answer and affirmative defenses to the amended complaint on October 10, 2025. Litigation is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance regarding the outcome. Whether or not any plaintiffs’ claim is successful, this type of litigation may result in significant costs and divert management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect the operation of our business.

In February 2024, the Company settled previously outstanding litigation with a former stockholder of SomaLogic, whereby the Company relinquished 422,048 shares of the Company's common stock that were subject to vesting conditions.

In May 2024, the Company settled previously outstanding litigation with former stockholders of SomaLogic for $6.2 million, consisting of the repurchase of approximately 1.84 million shares of the Company's common stock from the stockholders at the market price of $2.40 per share, and a cash payment of $1.8 million. The Company recognized a litigation loss of $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2024.

On June 4, 2024, the Company received a demand pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law from a stockholder to inspect the Company’s books and records relating to the prior conversion of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock (as defined below). The Company has responded to the demand and has produced documents.

In March 2024, counsel for Shareholder Representative Services LLC (“SRS”) sent a letter to SomaLogic alleging breaches of the Palamedrix Merger Agreement described below relating to milestone payments. SomaLogic disputed these allegations and provided SRS with a Milestone Abandonment Notice. On July 3, 2025 SRS, in its capacity as representative of securityholders of Palamedrix, Inc. (“Palamedrix”), filed suit against SomaLogic in the Court of Chancery in Delaware alleging breaches of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 25, 2022 (the “Palamedrix Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Palamedrix was merged into SomaLogic (the “SRS Chancery Action”). SRS alleges that SomaLogic breached the Palamedrix Merger Agreement by failing to continue to invest in developing certain Palamedrix technology. Had the technology been successfully developed and commercialized, the Palamedrix Merger Agreement would have required SomaLogic to pay certain sales milestones over a certain time period. The total aggregate amount of thethree sales milestones contained in the Palamedrix Merger Agreement is $17.5 million. On August 4, 2025, SomaLogic moved to compel arbitration and/or dismiss the SRS Chancery Action in favor of the dispute resolution procedure for milestone disputes specified in the Palamedrix Merger Agreement. As of the date of this report, briefing on such motion is not yet complete. Litigation is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance regarding the outcome. Whether or not any SRS's claim is successful, this type of litigation may result in significant costs and divert management's attention and resources, which could adversely affect the operation of our business.

Additional lawsuits against us and certain of our officers or directors may be filed in the future. If additional similar complaints are filed, absent new or different allegations that are material, we will not necessarily announce such additional filings.

In the normal course of business, the Company is from time to time involved in legal proceedings or potential legal proceedings, including matters involving employment, intellectual property, or others. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management currently believes that the final outcome of any currently pending matters would not have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition, or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based only on the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, the Company continues to reassess the potential liability related to pending claims and litigation and may revise estimates.

  1. Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)

2024 Stock Repurchase Program

On February 6, 2024, the Company's board of directors authorized a share repurchase program (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”) pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to $50.0 millionof shares of its common stock in the open market, in one or more Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, or in negotiated transactions through March 1, 2026. The repurchases are contingent upon favorable market and business conditions and are funded by cash on hand. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares. During the three or nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company didnot repurchase any shares of its common stock under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program.

  1. Stock-based Compensation

The Company has various stock-based compensation plans, which are more fully described in the 2024 Financial Statements. Under these plans, the Company has the ability to grant several forms of incentive awards to the Company's eligible employees, directors, and non-employee consultants.

Stock-based compensation expense is reported in the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations as follows (in thousands):

  1. Net Loss Per Share

The Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss less any redemption or induced conversion on the Series B Preferred Stock by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. RSUs, performance stock units (“PSUs”), options to purchase the Company’s common stock, restricted stock, Employee Stock Purchase Plan

(“ESPP”) shares pending issuance, Series B Preferred Stock and convertible notes are considered to be potentially dilutive common shares but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive for all periods presented.

On January 23, 2022, the Company entered into separate Series B Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreements (collectively, the “Purchase Agreements”) with Casdin Private Growth Equity Fund II, L.P. and Casdin Partners Master Fund, L.P. (together, “Casdin”), and Viking Global Opportunities Illiquid Investments Sub Master LP and Viking Global Opportunities Drawdown LP (together, Viking, and collectively with Casdin, the “Investors”), whereby the Company issued and sold an aggregate of $225.0 million of convertible preferred stock, consisting of: (i)112,500 shares of the Company’s Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B-1 Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $1,000 per share; and (ii)112,500 shares of the Company’s Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B-2 Preferred Stock”, and together with the Series B-1 Preferred Stock, the “Series B Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price of $1,000 per share.

On March 18, 2024, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with the Investors in which all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock were exchanged for an aggregate of 92,930,553 shares of the Company's common stock. This transaction was determined to be an induced conversion due to a reduction in the original conversion price. The excess of the fair value of the common stock issued over the fair value of shares issuable under original terms represents an in-substance distribution to the Investors, and was included as a reduction to the numerator in calculating earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Computation of net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

  1. Income Taxes

The Company’s quarterly provision for income taxes is based on an estimated annual effective income tax rate. The quarterly provision for income taxes also includes discrete items, such as changes in valuation allowances or adjustments upon finalization of tax returns as well as infrequently occurring items, if any, such as the effects of changes in tax laws or rates, in the interim period in which they occur.

The Company recorded income tax benefit of $1.2 million and income tax expense of $0.1 million in thethree months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company recorded income tax benefit of $1.9 million and income tax expense of $0.3 million during thenine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in the Company's tax provision reflects the effect of the Company's foreign operations, which reported lower pre-tax income in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

The Company’s effective tax rates for both periods differ from the 21% U.S. federal statutory tax rate primarily due to valuation allowances recorded against deferred tax assets on domestic losses and the tax rate differences between the United States and foreign countries. The Company maintains a valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets as the Company believes it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“2025 U.S. tax reform”) was enacted into law. The 2025 U.S. tax reform contains several key tax laws, including extensions and modifications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company is required to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment, such as remeasuring the estimated U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities. The 2025 U.S. tax reform did not have a material impact to the Company’s estimated annual effective rate for 2025 and management is currently evaluating the potential impact of the 2025 U.S. tax reform on future periods.

  1. Segment Reporting

As discussed in Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the Company reassessed its operating and reportable segments during the first quarter of 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company hasone operating and reportable segment.

The CODM utilizes the Company's annual operating plan, primarily consisting of an annual financial forecast, as a key input to resource allocation. The CODM makes decisions on resource allocation and assesses performance of the business using net loss.

The significant expenses within net loss that are regularly provided to the CODM include cost of revenue and operating expenses. Operating expenses consists of five main subcategories: research and development; selling, general and administrative; transaction and integration; and restructuring and related. All significant expense categories and subcategories are reported on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Other segment items within net loss include the following:

Depreciation and amortization expense, which is separately presented on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows

Change in fair value of contingent consideration, which is separately presented on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows

Bargain purchase gain, which is separately presented on the condensed consolidated statements of operations

Interest income and interest expense, which are separately presented on the condensed consolidated statements of operations

See Note 4, Revenue and Geographic Area, for the Company's revenue by geography.

  1. Restructuring and Related Charges

On August 28, 2025, the Company determined to consolidate its South San Francisco-based R&D capabilities into its Singapore facility to co-locate with its manufacturing operations and implemented a reduction in force of certain U.S. employees in the Company's R&D function, including members of its management team. As part of this consolidation, the Company will vacate its South San Francisco office and transfer its headquarters to Boston, Massachusetts. Management currently expects this process to be completed by December 31, 2025.

On September 13, 2025, the Company commenced an additional restructuring plan, including an additional reduction in force to align operating costs with revenue projections for its continuing operations.

Both restructuring actions are designed to improve operational efficiency while supporting the execution of the Company's long-term strategic plan. When combined, the reductions-in-force impacted approximately 20% of the Company’s total global workforce.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized restructuring charges of approximately $10.8 million resulting from the reductions in force described above, and incurred approximately $2.2 million in restructuring expenses for facility-related costs resulting from the Company’s 2022 restructuring plan. The Company anticipates ongoing similar restructuring expenses until the related lease terminates.

The following table summarizes the change in the Company’s restructuring and other related liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (in thousands):
