Supplemental Disclosure to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024

The following updates Part I, Item 1. “Business—Intellectual Property—Patents”in our 2024 Form 10-K:

Patents

The fields of genomic and health information analysis present limited opportunities for patent protection, based on current legal precedents. Our patent protection strategy has focused on seeking protection for certain of our non-gene specific technology and our specific biomarkers. In this regard, we have six pending U.S. non-provisional utility patent applications and eight U.S. provisional patent applications. The utility patent applications include a U.S. patent application related to performing phenotypic fit analysis, a U.S. patent application related to analyzing genetic variations and phenotypes, a U.S. patent application related to modeling inference of mutation impact, a U.S. patent application related to generating a cancer determination from electronic health records using a cancer determination analysis system, a U.S. patent application related to providing a homologous recombination DNA repair deficiency score for a cancer patient, and a U.S. patent application related to therapeutic treatment for subjects having certain polymorphic markers associated with specific human leukocyte antigen alleles. If patents are issued from the currently pending applications, the earliest patents will begin expiring in the early 2040s, subject to potential extensions of the patent term that will be calculated based on the length of the patent examination process. The claim scope of any potentially issued patents stemming from the present applications may be narrower than included in the initial filings due to any amendments that may arise throughout their prosecution.

We do not presently have any patents directed to the sequences of specific genes or variants of such genes, nor do we currently rely on any in-licensed gene patent rights of any third party. We may, in time, seek additional patent protection to protect technology that is not gene-specific and that provides us with a potential competitive advantage as we focus on making comprehensive genetic information less expensive and more broadly available to our customers.

The following updates Part I, Item 1.“Business—Government Regulation—Diagnostic Products and FDA Oversight of Laboratory Developed Tests” in our 2024 Form 10-K:

FDA Oversight of Laboratory Developed Tests

We currently offer an LDT version of certain tests. Historically, the FDA has exercised a policy of enforcement discretion with respect to most LDTs, whereby the FDA did not actively enforce its medical device regulatory requirements for such tests. However, at various points in recent years, FDA has indicated that it intends to end enforcement discretion for many tests offered as LDTs, and to require such tests to comply with certain FDA regulatory requirements. Agency officials have previously expressed significant concerns regarding performance disparities between some LDTs and in vitro diagnostics that have been reviewed, cleared, authorized or approved by the FDA.

On April 29, 2024, the FDA published a final rule on LDTs, in which FDA outlined its plans to end enforcement discretion for many LDTs in five stages over a four-year period. In Phase 1 (effective May 6, 2025), clinical laboratories would be required to comply with medical device (adverse event) reporting, correction/removal reporting, and certain quality systems complaint handling requirements. In Phase 2 (effective May 6, 2026), clinical laboratories would be required to comply with all other device requirements (e.g., registration/listing, labeling, investigational use), except for remaining quality systems requirements and premarket review. In Phase 3 (effective May 6, 2027), clinical laboratories would be required to comply with all remaining applicable quality systems requirements. In Phase 4 (effective November 6, 2027), clinical laboratories would be required to comply with premarket submission requirements for high-risk tests (i.e., tests subject to premarket approval (PMA) requirement). Finally, in Phase 5 (effective May 6,2028), clinical laboratories would be required to comply with premarket submission requirements for moderate- and low-risk tests (i.e., tests subject to de novo or 510(k) requirement). The final rule potentially extends enforcement discretion for certain tests – e.g., LDTs approved by the New York State Department of Health, and LDTs first marketed prior to May 6, 2024 which are not modified or are modified in certain limited ways – from certain FDA regulatory requirements, provided certain important limitations have been met.

Multiple lawsuits have been filed challenging the FDA’s authority to regulate LDTs as medical devices under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA). On March 31, 2025, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas struck down the 2024 final rule on the grounds that FDA exceeded its authority under the FDCA. As a result, clinical laboratories offering LDTs will not be required to comply with any of the Phases of the final rule unless FDA successfully appeals the court’s ruling. The government has not announced whether it intends to appeal the district court’s decision. We are actively reviewing the final rule and monitoring the status of legal challenges to the rule to evaluate its applicability to our operations, and the extent to which we may be required to modify our operations to comply with its requirements.

Legislative proposals addressing the FDA’s oversight of LDTs have also been introduced in previous Congresses, and we expect that new legislative proposals will be introduced from time-to-time. For example, versions of the Verifying Accurate Leading- edge IVCT Development Act (the “VALID Act”) have been introduced in Congress several times in recent years, but the VALID Act has not been enacted. The VALID Act, as most recently proposed, would create a new category of medical products separate from medical devices called “in vitro clinical tests,” or IVCTs. As most recently proposed, the VALID Act would modify the FDCA and establish a risk-based approach to imposing requirements related to premarket review, quality systems, and labeling requirements on all IVCTs, including LDTs, but a grandfathering provision would create exemptions from certain requirements for certain LDTs (e.g., LDTs first offered for clinical use not later than May 6, 2024). The likelihood that Congress will pass such legislation and the extent to which such legislation may affect the FDA’s plans to regulate certain LDTs as medical devices is difficult to predict at this time.

If the FDA ultimately regulates certain LDTs as medical devices, whether via final guidance, final regulation, or as instructed by Congress, our tests may be subject to certain additional regulatory requirements. Complying with the FDA’s requirements for medical devices can be expensive, time-consuming, and subject us to significant or unanticipated delays. Insofar as we may be required to obtain premarket clearance or approval to perform or continue performing an LDT, we cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain such authorization. Even if we obtain regulatory clearance or approval where required, such authorization may not be for the intended uses that we believe are commercially attractive or are critical to the commercial success of our tests. As a result, the application of the FDA’s oversight to our tests could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We will continue to monitor changes to all LDT regulatory policy so as to ensure compliance with the current regulatory scheme. The FDA in the course of enforcing the FDCA may subject a company to various sanctions for violating FDA regulations or provisions of the FDCA, including requiring recalls, issuing Warning Letters, seeking to impose civil money penalties, seizing devices that the agency believes are non-compliant, seeking to enjoin distribution of a specific device, seeking to revoke a clearance or approval, seeking disgorgement of profits and/or seeking to criminally prosecute a company and its officers and other responsible parties.

Additionally, certain of our diagnostic products in development may be subject to regulation by the FDA and similar international health authorities. For these products, we would have an obligation to adhere to the FDA’s current Good Manufacturing Practices and diagnostic product regulations, including providing for an establishment and product listing with the FDA. Additionally, we would be subject to periodic FDA inspections, quality control procedures, and other detailed validation procedures. If the FDA finds deficiencies in the validation of our manufacturing and/or our quality control practices, it may impose restrictions on marketing specific products until corrected. Regulation by governmental authorities in the United States and other countries may be a significant factor in how we develop, test, produce and market our diagnostic test products.
