Current report

For our data licensing agreement, we provide non‑exclusive licenses to specified TCR dataset tranches. We identified one performance obligation: the delivery of the respective TCR dataset tranche. We recognize revenue upon delivery of such licensed data. We also have the right to receive additional consideration upon the renewal or exercise of additional TCR dataset tranche licenses. These do not represent material rights, and as such, will be accounted for when and if exercised.

Current report

For our target discovery agreement, we received an initial upfront payment and rights to additional consideration upon the delivery of completed disease-specific TCRs pursuant to a research plan. We identified two distinct performance obligations: (1) to provide Adaptive Immunosequencing services for customer provided specimens; and (2) the delivery of the disease-specific TCRs with the associated license rights. The consideration allocated to each of the respective performance obligations is recognized as revenue upon the delivery of the respective datasets. If the customer elects to further develop therapeutics, we may be eligible to receive additional development, commercial and sales milestone payments that could total up to $877.5 million. All such development, commercial and sales‑based milestone payments are fully constrained until the underlying triggering events occur. The customer is solely responsible for any subsequent development costs following the conclusion of the research plan.

Current report

The $1.7 million increase in cost of revenue was primarily attributable to a $0.9 million increase in shipping and handling expenses and a $0.7 million increase in labor and overhead costs.

Current report

(1)Costs related to Digital Biotechnologies, Inc. are no longer included as Immune Medicine costs and have been reclassified to our unallocated corporate category.

Current report

The $5.3 million increase in Immune Medicine Adjusted EBITDA deficit was primarily attributable to a $4.9 million decrease in Immune Medicine revenue, resulting largely from the termination of the Genentech Agreement in August 2025.

Current report

(2) Represents expenses recognized in conjunction with a restructuring that primarily impacted research and development activities.
Removed paragraphs (11)

Previous 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

Impairment of long-lived assets expenses include our impairment charges for certain leased space, related long-lived assets (including leasehold improvements and laboratory equipment) and long-lived assets associated with our halted software enhancements. See Note 7, Leasesand Note 12, Restructuringsof the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for details regarding our impairment assessments and considerations.

Previous report

The $1.5 million increase in cost of revenue was primarily attributable to a $1.7 million increase in materials cost resulting from increased revenue sample volume, a $0.4 million increase in shipping and handling expenses and a $0.4 million increase related to higher usage of our production laboratory to process revenue samples versus research and development samples. These increases were partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in cost of materials due primarily to reductions in assay costs, as well as a $0.4 million decrease in overhead costs.

Previous report

The $28.9 million reduction in Immune Medicine Adjusted EBITDA deficit was primarily attributable to a $28.2 million increase in Immune Medicine revenue, which was driven largely by revenue generated due to the termination of the Genentech Agreement.

Previous report

The $28.7 million increase in Immune Medicine revenue was primarily due to a $31.3 million increase in revenue generated from the Genentech Agreement, driven largely by the termination of the Genentech Agreement and the resulting recognition of cash consideration received that was previously classified as deferred revenue, partially offset by a $2.6 million decrease in revenue generated from our biopharmaceutical and academic customers.

Previous report

The $0.9 million decrease in cost of revenue was primarily attributable to a $3.8 million decrease in cost of materials due primarily to reductions in inventory reserve expense and assay costs and a $3.0 million decrease in overhead costs, which was largely driven by consolidation activities. These decreases were partially offset by a $3.0 million increase in materials cost resulting from increased revenue sample volume, a $1.2 million increase related to higher usage of our production laboratory to process revenue samples versus research and development samples and a $1.0 million increase in shipping and handling expenses.

Previous report

The $6.9 million increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily attributable to a $4.2 million increase in personnel costs, a $1.3 million increase in consulting costs, a $1.1 million increase in computer and software expenses, a $0.8 million increase in allocated facility and overhead expenses and a $0.4 million increase in travel and customer event related expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in marketing expenses, driven largely by reduced clonoSEQ and corporate marketing activities.

Previous report

The $1.6 million decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to a $2.9 million decrease in personnel costs, a $0.8 million decrease in building, facility and depreciation related expenses and a $0.5 million decrease in accounting and tax fees. These decreases were partially offset by a $1.1 million increase in third-party billing service fees, a $1.1 million increase in legal fees and a $0.4 million increase in consulting costs.

Previous report

The $7.2 million decrease in impairment of long-lived assets expenses was attributable to the impairment of certain long-lived assets and our decision to vacate certain leased space as a result of various restructuring activities in 2024.

Previous report

The $31.4 million reduction in Immune Medicine Adjusted EBITDA deficit was primarily attributable to a $28.7 million increase in Immune Medicine revenue, which was driven largely by revenue generated due to the termination of the Genentech Agreement, and a reduction in operating expenses, excluding those identified as reconciling items between segment net loss and segment adjusted EBITDA. The primary drivers of the operating expense reduction relate to cost of revenue and research and development activities.

Previous report

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 integrated our clonoSEQ test into electronic medical record systems, including Epic System Corporation's Aura and Flatiron Health's OncoEMR, of numerous accounts.
