Net (Losses) Gains on Equity Securities
Current report
NM = Not meaningful
Current report
The $25.0 million increase in net revenues from our non-dermatologic tests was primarily attributable to higher test report volumes for our TissueCypher Barrett’s Esophagus test and, to a lesser extent, a higher realized average selling price (“ASP”). The increases in our TissueCypher Barrett’s Esophagus test report volumes reflect growth through our sales force efforts. Net revenue from our non-dermatologic tests as a percentage of total net revenue increased from 34.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 to 53.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2026.
Current report
The $7.6 million decrease in net revenues for our dermatologic tests was primarily attributable to our DecisionDx-SCC test, driven by lower realized ASP and lower test report volumes. The reduction in ASP was primarily driven by the loss of Medicare LCD coverage in April 2025.
Current report
Our gross margin percentage was 74.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 77.3% for the same period in 2025. The decrease primarily reflects higher expenses for lab supplies, higher personnel costs and higher lab services costs reflecting the shift in the mix of reports issued partially offset by the spread of fixed laboratory costs over higher test report volumes.
Current report
R&D expenses increased by $1.8 million, or 13.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher personnel costs driven by increased headcount to support continued business growth, as well as increased advisory board, clinical trial, and travel costs related to our pipeline initiatives.
Current report
Sales and marketing expenses increased by $5.8 million, or 16.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher personnel costs, higher expenses associated with travel, and higher business admin costs. Stock-based compensation expense included in sales and marketing was $3.9 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2026 and the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Current report
Interest income decreased by $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to lower interest earned on our money market funds and marketable securities, as well as lower premium amortization and discount accretion recognized on our marketable securities.
Current report
Net (Losses) Gains on Equity Securities
Current report
Net (losses) gains on equity securities decreased by $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the absence of unrealized gains recognized on other equity securities during the prior-year period, as those securities were subsequently sold and were no longer held during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The decrease also reflected an unrealized loss recognized on our equity investment in SciBase during the current-year period, which we did not hold during the prior-year period.

Current report
Interest income decreased by$1.1 million for thesix months ended June 30, 2026, compared to thesix months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to lower interest earned on our money market funds and marketable securities, as well as lower premium amortization and discount accretion recognized on our marketable securities.
Current report
Income tax expense was$0.5 million for thesix months ended June 30, 2026 and primarily consisted of income taxes related to state jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Our income tax benefit was $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a reduction of the valuation allowance previously recorded against our federal deferred tax assets. The release resulted in a credit to income tax expense and was based on new deferred tax liabilities recognized upon consolidating Capsulomics.

Previous report
On April 4, 2025, we amended the 2024 Loan and Security Agreement (the “2024 LSA”) to modify certain terms, including the extension of the draw period for our line of credit from March 31, 2025 to September 30, 2025. In August 2025, we exercised the interest-only milestone provision under the 2024 LSA to extend the interest-only period on the term loan from November 30, 2025 to December 1, 2026. The line of credit under the 2024 LSA expired on September 30, 2025 and is no longer available as a source of liquidity. No draws were made on the line of credit.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our test report volume increased by 10% compared to the same period in 2025. Our dermatologic test report volume increased by 6% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior period in 2025, largely driven by continued growth from our DecisionDx-Melanoma test. TissueCypher increased by 58% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the prior period in 2025, further contributing to the overall volume increase. For a discussion of how we recognize revenue derived from our tests, refer to “Components of Results of Operations—Net Revenues” below.
Current wording
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, our test report volume increased by 16% and 13%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2025. The increase primarily reflects continued growth in our core revenue drivers, TissueCypher and DecisionDx-Melanoma. TissueCypher test report volume increased by 63% and 61% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, reflecting continued commercial adoption. We continue to invest in expanding our Pittsburgh laboratory operations to increase TissueCypher testing capacity and support future growth. DecisionDx-Melanoma test report volume increased by 3% and 9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Dermatologic test report volume decreased by 4% for the three months June 30, 2026 but increased by 1% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily reflecting lower DecisionDx-SCC test report volume, partially offset by continued growth in DecisionDx-Melanoma. For a discussion of how we recognize revenue derived from our tests, refer to “Components of Results of Operations—Net Revenues” below.
Previous wording
For our AdvanceAD-Tx product line, we received approximately 650 orders during the three months ended March 31, 2026, while still in the initial limited access phase.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
Cost of sales (exclusive of amortization of acquired intangible assets) for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $6.1 million, or 34.5%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher expenses for lab supplies, higher personnel costs, and higher lab services costs. The increase in lab supplies and lab services costs reflects higher test report volumes. Increases in personnel costs reflect a higher headcount, due to additions made to support business growth in response to growing test report volumes, as well as merit and annual inflationary wage adjustment for existing employees.
Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
Due to the nature of our business, a significant portion of our cost of sales expenses represents fixed costs associated with our testing operations. Accordingly, our cost of sales expenses will not necessarily increase or decrease commensurately with the change in net revenues from period to period. We expect our cost of sales expenses (exclusive of amortization of acquired intangible assets) to continue to increase in future periods as we hire additional laboratory personnel and related resources to support expected operational growth and higher test volumes.
Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
General and administrative expenses increased by $2.3 million, or 9.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is primarily due to higher personnel costs. Higher personnel costs reflect headcount expansions in our administrative functions as well as merit and annual inflationary wage adjustment for existing employees. Stock-based compensation expense included in general and administrative expense was $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
Stock-based compensation expense which is allocated among cost of sales, R&D expense and SG&A expense totaled $11.6 million and $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. We expect stock-based compensation expense will continue to be material in future periods, attributable to both existing awards outstanding and anticipated additional grants to our current and future employees. As of June 30, 2026, we had 1,002 employees, compared to 798 as of June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to outstanding awards was $90.4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years.
