Current report
On August 13, 2025, our worldwide collaboration and license agreement with Genentech, Inc. (“Genentech”) (the “Genentech Agreement”) was terminated, with termination effective February 9, 2026. There are no penalties nor future consideration due between either party. The termination of the Genentech Agreement was accounted for as a contract modification under ASC 606. As there were no changes to the transaction price and no future development efforts on our part in connection with the periods subsequent to September 30, 2025, we recognized the remaining related deferred revenue. We are no longer eligible to receive additional milestone payments or tiered royalties.

Previous report
The $26.3 million reduction in MRD Adjusted EBITDA deficit was primarily attributable to a $25.7 million increase in MRD revenue and a reduction in operating expenses, excluding those identified as reconciling items between net loss and adjusted EBITDA. The primary driver of the operating expense reduction relates to research and development activities.

Previous wording
Our current product and service offerings in MRD related to the MRD market are our clonoSEQ clinical diagnostic test, offered to clinicians, and our clonoSEQ or MRD assay, offered to biopharmaceutical partners to advance drug development efforts. Our first clinical diagnostic product, clonoSEQ, is the first test authorized by the Food and Drug Administration for the detection and monitoring of MRD in patients with multiple myeloma, B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and is also available as a CLIA-validated laboratory developed test for patients with other lymphoid cancers, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma (“MCL”). In the fourth quarter of 2024, we obtained Medicare coverage for MCL and initiated promotional efforts in MCL. We also obtained a new Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule rate of $2,007 per test for clonoSEQ and MolDX updated the clonoSEQ episode pricing to $8,029 for all covered indications. This represents a 17% increase from the previous episode price and the previous implied per test rate under the episode structure. In April 2025, Palmetto GBA expanded coverage of clonoSEQ to include single time point testing to monitor for recurrence in patients with a history of MCL. This expanded coverage is in addition to the existing Medicare episode payment structure for clonoSEQ. With the use of clonoSEQ, we are transforming how lymphoid cancers are treated by working with providers, pharmaceutical partners and payors. In an effort to enable easier test ordering, we have worked to integrate the clonoSEQ clinical diagnostic test via Epic System Corporation's comprehensive electronic medical record system into the records systems of numerous accounts, and continue to make more progress.

Immune Medicine leverages our proprietary ability to sequence, map, pair and characterize T cell receptors (“TCRs”) and B cell receptors (“BCRs”) at scale to drive opportunities in cancer and autoimmune disorders. Our immunosequencing technology, which includes our Adaptive Immunosequencing research product, serves as the research and development engine driving our immune medicine platform and generates revenue from biopharmaceutical and academic customers. We are applying artificial intelligence and machine learning models to map at scale TCR sequences to the diseases they bind to enable our drug discovery efforts. Also in our drug discovery programs, we use our proprietary capabilities to discover new drug targets and leverage our validated TCR and BCR discovery approaches to discover and develop TCR or antibody therapeutic assets. Our drug discovery efforts include our worldwide collaboration and license agreement with Genentech (the “Genentech Agreement”) under which we support Genentech in the development of cancer antigen-directed TCR-based cancer cell therapies for the treatment of patients with solid tumors.

Previous wording
For our clonoSEQ coverage under Medicare, we bill an episode of treatment when we deliver the first eligible test report. This billing contemplates all necessary tests required during a patient’s treatment cycle, which is currently estimated at approximately four tests per patient, including the initial sequence identification test. Revenue recognition commences at the time the initial billable test report is delivered and is based upon cumulative tests delivered to date. Any unrecognized revenue from the initial billable test is recorded as deferred revenue and recognized either as we deliver our estimate of the remaining tests in a patient’s treatment cycle or when the likelihood becomes remote that a patient will receive additional testing.

Current wording
We plan to utilize the existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand primarily to fund both our commercial and marketing activities associated with clonoSEQ and our continued research and development initiatives related to drug discovery. Cash in excess of immediate requirements is invested in accordance with our investment policy, primarily with a view to capital preservation and liquidity. Currently, our funds are held in money market funds and marketable securities consisting of U.S. government treasury securities, corporate bonds and commercial paper.
Previous wording
While we may experience variability in revenue in the near term, over the long-term we expect revenue from our current and future products and services to grow. Accordingly, we expect our accounts receivable and inventory balances to increase. Our levels of accounts receivable may fluctuate relative to our revenue for a number of reasons, including the timing of milestone triggers and related payment of those milestones, as well as reductions in revenue derived from the upfront payment received under the Genentech Agreement and an increase in revenue generated from clinical customers, which may result in more billings in arrears as opposed to upfront payments. Any increase in accounts receivable and inventory may not be completely offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses, which could result in greater working capital requirements.
