ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Description of the Business

Oncocyte Corporation (“Oncocyte,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”), incorporated in 2009 in California, is a pioneering diagnostics technology company. Our mission is to democratize access to novel molecular diagnostic testing to improve patient outcomes. Our current intellectual property portfolio comprises three general areas: 1) organ transplant, 2) oncology therapy selection, and 3) oncology therapy monitoring. Within these categories, we have developed or are in the process of developing laboratory developed tests (“LDTs”) that can be run at our Nashville, Tennessee laboratory, kitted research use only (“RUO”) tests, and kitted clinical tests that can be run by local labs.

Business Risks

Tariff policies and potential countermeasures could increase our costs and disrupt our global supply chain, which could negatively impact the results of our operations as well as our intangible asset valuations and other fair value measurements. In addition, our business could be adversely impacted by other inflationary factors. The Company will continue to monitor these risks. Refer to Item 1A., “Risk Factors” for additional information about the risks that may impact our business.

Liquidity

Oncocyte has incurred operating losses and negative operating cash flows since inception and had an accumulated deficit of $357.2 million as of March 31, 2025. Oncocyte expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the foreseeable future. Since its formation, Oncocyte has financed its operations primarily through the sale of shares of its common stock, convertible preferred stock and warrants to acquire common stock. As of March 31, 2025, Oncocyte had $31.0 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Oncocyte received a positive coverage decision from MolDx for GraftAssureCore (Kidney) in August of 2023, and it became commercially available for ordering in January 2024 through Oncocyte’s Clinical Laboratory Improvements Amendment (“CLIA”) Laboratory in Nashville, Tennessee. GraftAssureCore (Kidney) is now broadly available to transplant professionals upon request. In July 2024, Oncocyte began to commercialize the technology underlying GraftAssureCore (Kidney) by distributing its sister product, GraftAssureIQ, which is intended to be sold and used for research purposes and is labeled as RUO. Oncocyte expects to distribute its RUO production through a mix of direct sales, partnering and distribution agreements, and licensing. In December 2024, we confirmed Medicare reimbursement for also monitoring certain high-risk patients, that is, those with newly developed donor-specific antibodies.

In the field of oncology, Oncocyte is continuing to develop DetermaIO, a test with promising data supporting its potential to help identify patients likely to respond to checkpoint inhibitor drugs. This new class of drugs modulate the immune response and show activity in multiple solid tumor types including non-small cell lung cancer, and triple negative breast cancer. A kitted research product format of the underlying technology began proof-of-concept development in 2023. The application of immunotherapy is a global problem, and thus we expect partnering opportunities for each of our products as they reach clinical maturity. We expect to begin commercializing our oncology product line, which includes DetermaIO, over the next 12 months.

On April 5, 2024, the Company entered into a global strategic partnership agreement with Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. (“Bio-Rad”) to collaborate in the development and the commercialization of RUO and in vitro diagnostic (“IVD”) kitted transplant products for clinical use. See Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements” for additional information. On November 8, 2024, the Company and Bio-Rad entered into a memorandum of understanding with respect to such agreement to establish additional activities to be performed by each party pursuant to such agreement.

On October 4, 2024, the Company consummated a private placement of its securities to certain accredited investors (the “October 2024 Offering”). The gross proceeds from the October 2024 Offering were approximately $10.2 million. After deducting placement agent fees and expenses and offering expenses payable by the Company of $836,000, the resulting net proceeds were approximately $9.4 million. These net proceeds were inclusive of an investment from Bio-Rad (see Note 9), our aforementioned global strategic partner. See Note 7, “Common Stock – October 2024 Offering” for additional information.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On February 10, 2025, the Company consummated a registered direct offering and concurrent private placement of its securities to certain accredited investors (the “February 2025 Offering”). The aggregate gross proceeds from the February 2025 Offering were approximately $29.1 million. After deducting offering expenses payable by the Company of $487,000, the resulting net proceeds were approximately $28.7 million. These net proceeds are inclusive of an investment from Bio-Rad (see Note 9), our aforementioned global strategic partner. See Note 7, “Common Stock – February 2025 Offering” for additional information.

In addition to general economic and capital market trends and conditions, Oncocyte’s ability to raise sufficient additional capital to finance its operations from time to time will depend on a number of factors specific to Oncocyte’s operations such as operating revenues and expenses, progress in our collaborative arrangement for the development and the commercialization of RUO and IVD kitted transplant products, progress in obtaining regulatory approval to distribute our products for clinical use, and progress in the development of, or in obtaining reimbursement coverage from Medicare for DetermaIO and other future laboratory tests that Oncocyte may develop or acquire.

The unavailability or inadequacy of financing or revenues to meet future capital needs could force Oncocyte to modify, curtail, delay, or suspend some or all aspects of planned operations. Sales of additional equity securities could result in the dilution of the interests of Oncocyte's current stockholders. Oncocyte cannot assure that adequate long-term financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern, we evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements included in this Report are issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of our plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the consolidated financial statements included in this Report are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, we evaluate whether the mitigating effect of our plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of our plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that such financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that such financial statements are issued. In performing this analysis, we excluded certain elements of our operating plan that cannot be considered probable.

Although it is difficult to predict the Company’s liquidity requirements, based on the going concern evaluation discussed above, management believes that it will have sufficient cash to meet its projected operating requirements for at least the next twelve months following the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, management has concluded that substantial doubt does not exist about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. However, the Company anticipates that it may continue to generate operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the foreseeable future as it continues the development of its various programs and incurs additional costs associated with being a public company.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Principles

The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In accordance with those rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in comprehensive audited consolidated financial statements may have been condensed or omitted. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in Oncocyte’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of Oncocyte’s financial condition and results of operations. The consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On January 31, 2020, with the acquisition of Insight Genetics, Inc. (“Insight”) through a merger with a newly incorporated wholly-owned subsidiary of Oncocyte (the “Insight Merger”) under the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Insight Merger Agreement”), Insight became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Insight’s operations and results with Oncocyte’s operations and results. See Note 3, “Business Combinations and Contingent Consideration Liabilities – Acquisition of Insight Genetics, Inc.”

On April 15, 2021, with the acquisition of Chronix Biomedical, Inc. (“Chronix”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated February 2, 2021, amended February 23, 2021, and amended and restated as of April 15, 2021 (as amended and restated, the “Chronix Merger Agreement”), by and among Oncocyte, CNI Monitor Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, Chronix became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oncocyte (the “Chronix Merger”), and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Chronix’s operations and results with Oncocyte’s operations and results. See Note 3, “Business Combinations and Contingent Consideration Liabilities – Acquisition of Chronix Biomedical, Inc.”

All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These changes had no impact on the previously reported consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates estimates which are subject to significant judgment, including, but not limited to, valuation methods used, assumptions requiring the use of judgment to prepare financial projections and forecasted financial information, timing of potential commercialization of acquired in-process intangible assets, applicable discount rates, probabilities of the likelihood of multiple outcomes of certain events related to contingent consideration, comparable companies or transactions, determination of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (including those relating to contingent consideration), the carrying value of any goodwill and other intangibles and related impairments, assumptions related to going concern assessments, revenue recognition, allowances for credit losses, allocation of direct and indirect expenses, useful lives associated with long-lived intangible and other assets, key assumptions in operating and financing leases including incremental borrowing rates, loss contingencies, valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, and assumptions used to value stock-based awards and other equity instruments. These assessments are made in the context of information reasonably available to Oncocyte. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.

Segment Reporting

In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, Oncocyte’s management views its operations as one reportable segment that includes the research, development and commercialization of diagnostic tests, including molecular diagnostic services to pharmaceutical customers. See Note 11 for additional information.

Fair Value Measurements, Business Combinations and Contingent Consideration Liabilities

Oncocyte accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, which requires the purchase consideration transferred to be measured at fair value on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC 820 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and expands on required disclosures about fair value measurement. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

•

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

•

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Such inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model. Management estimates include certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs, including the entity’s own assumptions in determining fair value.

When a part of the purchase consideration consists of shares of Oncocyte common stock, Oncocyte calculates the purchase price attributable to those shares, a Level 1 security, by determining the fair value of those shares as of the acquisition date based on prices quoted on the principal national securities exchange on which the shares traded. Oncocyte recognizes estimated fair values of the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development (“IPR&D”), and liabilities assumed, including any contingent consideration, as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is recognized as any amount of excess consideration transferred over the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired net of the liabilities assumed. ASC 805 precludes the recognition of an assembled workforce as an asset, effectively subsuming any assembled workforce value into goodwill.

In determining fair value, Oncocyte utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, and also considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. For the periods presented, Oncocyte has no financial assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, except for money market funds. These assets are measured at fair value using the period-end quoted market prices as a Level 1 input.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, net accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair values because of the short-term nature of these items.

In accordance with GAAP, from time to time, the Company measures certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The Company reviews the carrying value of intangibles, including IPR&D (see Note 5), and other long-lived assets for indications of impairment at least annually. Refer to related discussions of impairments below.

Contingent Consideration Liabilities

Certain of Oncocyte’s asset and business acquisitions involve the potential for future payment of consideration to third-parties and former selling shareholders in amounts determined as a percentage of future net revenues generated, or upon attainment of revenue milestones, from Pharma Services or laboratory tests, as applicable, or annual minimum royalties to certain licensors, as provided in the applicable agreements. The fair value of such liabilities is determined using unobservable inputs. These inputs include the estimated amount and timing of projected cash flows and the risk-adjusted discount rate used to present value the cash flows. These obligations are referred to as contingent consideration, which are carried at fair value based on Level 3 inputs on a recurring basis.

ASC 805 requires that contingent consideration be estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the selling shareholders based on a percentage of certain revenues generated.

The fair value of contingent consideration after the acquisition date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Changes in key assumptions can materially affect the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and, accordingly, the resulting gain or loss that Oncocyte records in its consolidated financial statements. See Note 3 for a full discussion of these liabilities and additional Level 3 fair value disclosures.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Oncocyte considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. For the periods presented, Oncocyte’s cash equivalents are comprised of investments in AAA rated money market funds that invest in first-tier only securities, which primarily include domestic commercial paper and securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies. Restricted cash relates to a bank letter of credit required under our office lease arrangement, refer to Note 6 for additional information.

For cashflow reporting purposes, the Company combines the reported balance sheet amounts from cash and cash equivalents with restricted cash (noncurrent). As of March 31, 2025 and 2024, the aggregate amount of such ending balances were $32.7 million and $7.3 million, respectively, as presented on the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Investments in Privately Held Companies

Oncocyte evaluates whether investments held in common stock of other companies require consolidation of the company under, first, the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model, and then under the voting interest model in accordance with accounting guidance for consolidations under ASC 810-10. If consolidation of the entity is not required under either the VIE model or the voting interest model, Oncocyte determines whether the equity method of accounting should be applied in accordance with ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. The equity method applies to investments in common stock or in-substance common stock if Oncocyte exercises significant influence over, but does not control, the entity, where significant influence is typically represented by ownership of 20% or more, but less than majority ownership, of the voting interests of a company. Oncocyte initially records equity method investments at fair value on the date of the acquisition with subsequent adjustments to the investment balance based on Oncocyte’s pro rata share of earnings or losses from the investment.

Oncocyte’s first product for commercial release was a proprietary treatment stratification test called DetermaRx that identifies which patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer may benefit from chemotherapy, resulting in a significantly higher, five-year survival rate. Beginning in September 2019 through February 23, 2021, Oncocyte held a 25% equity interest in Razor Genomics, Inc. (“Razor”), a privately held company, that had developed and licensed to Oncocyte the lung cancer treatment stratification laboratory test that Oncocyte was commercializing as DetermaRx. On February 24, 2021, Oncocyte completed the purchase of all the remaining issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Razor. As a result of the purchase of the Razor common stock, Oncocyte became the sole shareholder of Razor. On December 15, 2022, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Razor Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Dragon Scientific, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Dragon”), and Razor. Pursuant to the Razor Stock Purchase Agreement, Oncocyte agreed to sell to Dragon, 3,188,181 shares of common stock of Razor, which constituted approximately 70% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Razor on a fully-diluted basis, and transfer to Razor all of the assets and liabilities related to DetermaRx (the “Razor Sale Transaction”). On February 16, 2023, Oncocyte completed the Razor Sale Transaction (the “Razor Closing”). In connection with the Razor Closing, Oncocyte transferred to Razor all of the assets and liabilities related to DetermaRx. While no monetary consideration was received for the sale of 70% of the equity interests of Razor, the transaction allowed the Company to eliminate all development and commercialization costs with respect to DetermaRx. Following the Razor Closing, Oncocyte continues to own 1,366,364 shares of common stock of Razor, which constitutes approximately 30% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Razor on a fully-diluted basis. Since February 16, 2023, Oncocyte continues to own an equity interest Razor, however, the remaining common stock held is accounted for at historical cost less impairment, which is currently zero.

Inventories

Inventories include raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. In September 2024, the Company began to capitalize certain RUO inventory costs in connection with its collaboration arrangement with Bio-Rad to develop and commercialize its GraftAssureIQ RUO kitted tests and eventual IVD kitted transplant testing products. See Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements” for additional information. As of March 31, 2025, inventories were comprised of raw materials of $258,000 and finished goods of $201,000. As of December 31, 2024, inventories were comprised of raw materials of $207,000 and finished goods of $203,000.

Assets Held for Sale

Assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale when all of the following criteria for a plan of sale have been met: (1) management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the assets; (2) the assets are available for immediate sale, in their present condition, subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets; (3) an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the assets have been initiated; (4) the sale of the assets is probable and is expected to be completed within one year; (5) the assets are being actively marketed for a price that is reasonable in relation to their current fair value; and (6) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or the plan will be withdrawn. When all of these criteria have been met, the assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet. Assets classified as held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Depreciation and amortization of assets ceases upon designation as held for sale.

Historically, the Company has entered into agreements to sell certain laboratory equipment. As a result, the Company classified the equipment as held for sale current assets in the consolidated balance sheet, when all the criteria of ASC subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment had been met. As such, laboratory equipment was written down to its fair value, less cost to sell, the remainder of which was $61,000 as of March 31, 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company placed the remaining equipment items back into service. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded an impairment loss on held for sale assets of $169,000 in the consolidated statement of operations.

Property and Equipment

Machinery and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally over a period of 3 to 10 years. For equipment purchased under financing leases, Oncocyte amortizes the equipment based on the shorter of the useful life of the equipment or the term of the lease, ranging from 3 to 5 years, depending on the nature and classification of the financing lease. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in Oncocyte’s results of operations.

Construction in progress, comprised primarily of leasehold improvements under construction, is not depreciated until the underlying asset is placed into service.

Intangible Assets

In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, IPR&D projects acquired in a business combination that are not complete as of the acquisition date are capitalized and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the related research and development efforts. Upon successful completion of the project, the capitalized amount is amortized over its estimated useful life. If a project is abandoned, all remaining capitalized amounts are written off immediately. Oncocyte considers various factors and risks for potential impairment of IPR&D assets, including the current legal and regulatory environment and the competitive landscape. Adverse clinical trial results, significant delays or inability to obtain local coverage determination (“LCD”) from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) for Medicare reimbursement for a diagnostic test, the inability to bring a diagnostic test to market and the introduction or advancement of competitors’ diagnostic tests could result in partial or full impairment of the related intangible assets. Consequently, the eventual realized value of the IPR&D project may vary from its fair value at the date of acquisition, and IPR&D impairment charges may occur in future periods. During the period between completion or abandonment, the IPR&D assets will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if Oncocyte becomes aware of any events occurring or changes in circumstances that would indicate a reduction in the fair value of the IPR&D projects below their respective carrying amounts.

Oncocyte does not have intangible assets with indefinite useful lives other than the acquired IPR&D discussed in Note 5, which as of March 31, 2025, has been partially impaired.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

When applicable, goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net identifiable assets and liabilities. Goodwill, similar to IPR&D, is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually, or if circumstances indicate that it is more-likely-than-not that the carrying value of the associated reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Qualitative factors considered in this assessment include industry and market conditions, overall financial performance, and other relevant events and factors affecting Oncocyte’s business. Based on the qualitative assessment, if it is determined that the fair value of goodwill is more-likely-than-not to be less than its carrying amount, the fair value of a reporting unit will be calculated and compared with its carrying amount and an impairment charge will be recognized for the amount that the carrying value exceeds the fair value. Oncocyte continues to operate in one segment and is considered to be the sole reporting unit and, therefore, goodwill is tested for impairment at the enterprise level, when applicable.

In accordance with ASC 350, we review and evaluate our long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that we may not recover their net book value. When applicable, we test for impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter of each year, and between annual tests, if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value approach. We typically use an income method to estimate the fair value of these assets, which is based on forecasts of the expected future cash flows attributable to the respective assets. Significant estimates and assumptions inherent in the valuations reflect a consideration of other marketplace participants and include the amount and timing of future cash flows (including expected growth rates). Estimates utilized in the projected cash flows include consideration of macroeconomic conditions, overall category growth rates, competitive activities, cost containment and margin expansion, Company business plans, the underlying product or technology life cycles, economic barriers to entry, and the discount rate applied to the cash flows. Unanticipated market or macroeconomic events and circumstances may occur, which could affect the accuracy or validity of the estimates and assumptions.

Long-Lived Intangible Assets

Long-lived intangible assets subject to amortization are stated at acquired cost, less accumulated amortization. We amortize intangible assets not considered to have an indefinite useful life using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit, which generally ranges from 1 to 9 years. Each reporting period, we evaluate the estimated remaining useful life of intangible assets and assess whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization or indicate that impairment exists. Long-lived intangible assets currently consist of acquired customer relationships with an estimated useful life of 5 years (see Note 5).

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Oncocyte’s long-lived assets consist primarily of intangible assets, right-of-use assets for operating and financing leases, customer relationships, and machinery and equipment. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable and the expected undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value, is recorded.

Leases

Oncocyte accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. Oncocyte determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases are classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. Under the available practical expedients for the adoption of ASC 842, Oncocyte accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Oncocyte recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than twelve months in the consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, Oncocyte uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Oncocyte uses the implicit rate when it is readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that Oncocyte will exercise that option. Operating lease expense and financing lease amortization expense are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating leases include office leases and related ROU lease liabilities, current and long-term, in the consolidated balance sheets. Financing leases include machinery and equipment and related financing lease liabilities, current and long-term, in the consolidated balance sheets (see “Property and Equipment” above for more information). Oncocyte discloses the amortization of our operating lease ROU assets and payments as a net amount in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Oncocyte has entered into various operating and financing leases in accordance with ASC 842 as further discussed in Note 6.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounting for Warrants

Oncocyte determines the accounting classification of warrants it issues, as either liability or equity classified, by first assessing whether the warrants meet liability classification in accordance with ASC 480-10, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, then in accordance with ASC 815-40, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock. Under ASC 480, warrants are considered liability classified if the warrants are mandatorily redeemable, obligate Oncocyte to settle the warrants or the underlying shares by paying cash or other assets or warrants that must or may require settlement by issuing variable number of shares. If warrants do not meet liability classification under ASC 480, Oncocyte assesses the requirements under ASC 815-40, which states that contracts that require or may require the issuer to settle the contract for cash are liabilities recorded at fair value, irrespective of the likelihood of the transaction occurring that triggers the net cash settlement feature. This liability classification guidance also applies to financial instruments that may require cash or other form of settlement for transactions outside of the company’s control and, in which the form of consideration to the warrant holder may not be the same as to all other shareholders in connection with the transaction. However, if a transaction is not within the company’s control but the holder of the financial instrument can solely receive the same type or form of consideration as is being offered to all the shareholders in the transaction, then equity classification of the financial instrument is not precluded, if all other applicable equity classification criteria are met.

After all relevant assessments, Oncocyte concludes whether the warrants are classified as liability or equity. Liability classified warrants require fair value accounting at issuance and subsequent to initial issuance with all changes in fair value after the issuance date recorded in the statements of operations. Equity classified warrants only require fair value accounting at issuance with no changes recognized subsequent to the issuance date. Based on the above guidance and, among other factors, the fact that our warrants cannot be cash settled under any circumstance but require share settlement, all of our outstanding warrants meet the equity classification criteria and have been classified as equity. Refer to Note 7 for details about our outstanding warrants.

Revenue Recognition

Pursuant to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, revenues are recognized when control of services performed is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration Oncocyte expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. ASC 606 provides for a five-step model that includes:

(i)

identifying the contract with a customer,

(ii)

identifying the performance obligations in the contract,

(iii)

determining the transaction price,

(iv)

allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and

(v)

recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Oncocyte determines transaction prices based on the amount of consideration we expect to receive for transferring the promised goods or services in the contract. Consideration may be fixed, variable, or a combination of both. The Company considers any constraints on the variable consideration and includes in the transaction price variable consideration to the extent it is deemed probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

The following table presents consolidated revenues by service:

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Pharma Services Revenue

Revenues recognized include Pharma Services performed by Oncocyte’s Insight and Chronix subsidiaries for its pharmaceutical customers, including testing for biomarker discovery, assay design and development, clinical trial support, and a broad spectrum of biomarker tests. These Pharma Services are generally performed under individual scope of work (“SOW”) arrangements or license agreements (together with SOW the “Pharma Services Agreements”) with specific deliverables defined by the customer. Pharma Services are performed on a (i) time and materials basis or (ii) per test completed basis. Upon completion of the service to the customer in accordance with a Pharma Services Agreement, Oncocyte has the right to bill the customer for the agreed upon price (either on a per test or per deliverable basis) and recognizes Pharma Service revenue at that time. Insight identifies each service of its Pharma Service offering as a single performance obligation. Offerings include services such as recurring fees for project management, fees for storage and handling, pass through expenses for shipping or calibration, training, proficiency, reproducibility tests, etc. Chronix identifies the processing of test samples as a separate performance obligation (considered a series) within license agreements with customers.

Completion of the service and satisfaction of the performance obligation is typically evidenced by acknowledgment of completed services, and access to the report or test made available to the customer or any other form or applicable manner of delivery defined in the Pharma Services Agreements. However, for certain SOWs under which work is performed pursuant to the customer’s highly customized specifications, Oncocyte has the enforceable right to bill the customer for work completed, rather than upon completion of the SOW. For those SOWs, Oncocyte recognizes revenue over a period during which the work is performed using a formula that accounts for expended efforts, generally measured in labor hours, as a percentage of total estimated efforts for the completion of the SOW. As performance obligations are satisfied under the Pharma Services Agreements, any amounts earned as revenue and billed to the customer are included in accounts receivable. Any revenues earned but not yet billed to the customer as of the date of Oncocyte’s consolidated financial statements are recorded as contract assets and are included in other current assets as of the financial statement date. Amounts recorded in contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable in Oncocyte’s consolidated balance sheets when the customer is invoiced according to the billing schedule in the contract.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Oncocyte had gross accounts receivable from Pharma Services customers of $3.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Oncocyte establishes an allowance for credit losses based on the evaluation of the collectability of its Pharma Services accounts receivables after considering a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, significant events that may impair the customer’s ability to pay, such as a bankruptcy filing or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial condition, reasonable and supportable forecast that affect the collectability of the reported amount, and historical experience. If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables would be further adjusted. Oncocyte continuously monitors collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses and uncollectible accounts, if any, based upon its historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. Amounts determined to be uncollectible are written off against the credit loss reserve accounts. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Oncocyte had an allowance for credit losses of $36,000 and $16,000, respectively, related to Pharma Services.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

Laboratory Developed Test Services

Prior to the Razor Sale Transaction (see “Investments in Privately Held Companies” above), Oncocyte generated revenue from performing DetermaRx tests on clinical samples through orders received from physicians, hospitals, and other healthcare providers. In determining whether all the revenue recognition criteria in (i) through (v) above was met with respect to DetermaRx tests, each test result was considered a single performance obligation and was generally considered complete when the test result was delivered or made available to the prescribing physician electronically, and, as such, there were no shipping or handling fees incurred by Oncocyte or billed to customers. Although Oncocyte billed a list price for all tests ordered and completed for all payer types, Oncocyte considered constraints on the variable consideration when it recognized revenue for DetermaRx. Because DetermaRx was a novel test and there were no current reimbursement arrangements with third-party payers other than Medicare, the transaction price represented variable consideration. Application of the constraint for variable consideration was an area that required significant judgment. For all payers other than Medicare, Oncocyte needed to consider the novelty of the test, the uncertainty of receiving payment, or being subject to claims for a refund, from payers with whom it did not have a sufficient payment collection history or contractual reimbursement agreements. Accordingly, for those payers, Oncocyte recognized revenue upon payment because it had insufficient history to reliably estimate payment patterns. The remaining Medicare and Medicare Advantage accounts receivable net balance was written-off in the first quarter of 2023. Laboratory Developed Test Services revenue recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was the result of payments received.

Licensing Revenue

Revenues that may be recognized include licensing revenue derived from agreements with customers for exclusive rights to market Oncocyte’s proprietary testing technology. Under the agreements, Oncocyte grants exclusive rights to certain trademarks and technology of Oncocyte for the purpose of marketing Oncocyte’s tests within a defined geographic territory. A license agreement may specify milestone deliverables or performance obligations, for which Oncocyte recognizes revenue when its licensee confirms the completion of Oncocyte’s performance obligation. A licensing agreement may also include ongoing sales support from Oncocyte and typically includes non-refundable licensing fees and per-test Pharma Services revenues discussed above, for which Oncocyte treats the licensing of the technology, trademarks, and ongoing support as a single performance obligation satisfied by the passage of time over the term of the agreement.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash equivalents primarily in highly rated money market funds. Cash and cash equivalents are also invested in deposits with certain financial institutions and may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any significant losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents.

One Pharma Services customer individually represented approximately 99% of accounts receivable as of March 31, 2025. One Pharma Services customer individually represented approximately 97% of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2024.

The Company had accounts payable to three vendors that represented approximately 28%, 17% and 14% of accounts payable as of March 31, 2025, and three vendors that represented approximately 37%, 28% and 14% of accounts payable as of December 31, 2024.

The Company has a concentration in the volume of business transacted with Bio-Rad, its global strategic partner. In 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with Bio-Rad to collaborate in the development and the commercialization of RUO and IVD kitted transplant products using Bio-Rad’s ddPCR instruments and reagents, pursuant to which it is dependent on Bio-Rad with respect to many of its ongoing operations and future target performance. See Note 9, “Related Party Transactions” and Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements” for additional information.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues generally consists of cost of materials, direct labor including benefits, bonus and stock-based compensation, equipment and infrastructure expenses, clinical sample related costs associated with performing Pharma Services and Laboratory Developed Test Services, providing deliverables according to our licensing agreements, license fees due to third-parties, and amortization of acquired intangible assets such as the customer relationship intangible assets (see Note 5). Infrastructure expenses include depreciation of laboratory equipment, allocated rent costs, leasehold improvements, and allocated information technology costs for operations at Oncocyte’s CLIA laboratory in Tennessee. Costs associated with generating the revenues are recorded as the tests or services are performed regardless of whether revenue was recognized. Royalties or revenue share payments for licensed technology calculated as a percentage of revenues generated using the associated technology are recorded as expenses at the time the related revenues are recognized.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses are comprised of costs incurred to develop technology, which include salaries and benefits, stock-based compensation, laboratory expenses (including reagents and supplies used in research and development laboratory work), infrastructure expenses (including depreciation expense and allocated facility occupancy costs), and contract services and other outside costs. Indirect research and development expenses are allocated primarily based on headcount, as applicable, and include rent and utilities, common area maintenance, telecommunications, property taxes and insurance. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Certain research and development expenses are attributed to our global strategic collaboration arrangement with Bio-Rad for commercializing our RUO kitted test product. See Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements” for additional information.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs and related benefits, including stock-based compensation, trade show expenses, branding and positioning expenses, and consulting fees. Sales and marketing expenses also include indirect expenses for applicable overhead allocated based on headcount, and include allocated costs for rent and utilities, common area maintenance, depreciation expense, telecommunications, property taxes and insurance. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, Oncocyte’s total advertising expenses were $91,000 and $39,000, respectively. Certain sales and marketing expenses are attributed to our global strategic collaboration arrangement with Bio-Rad for commercializing our RUO kitted test product. See Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements” for additional information.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits (including stock-based compensation) for executive and corporate personnel, professional and consulting fees, rent and utilities, common area maintenance, depreciation expense, telecommunications, property taxes and insurance. Certain general and administrative expenses are attributed to our global strategic collaboration arrangement with Bio-Rad for commercializing our RUO kitted test product. See Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements” for additional information.

Stock-Based Compensation

Oncocyte recognizes compensation expense related to employee, Board of Director and other non-employee option grants and restricted stock grants in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation.

Oncocyte estimates the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the grant date and recognizes the resulting fair value over the requisite service period, which is generally a three or four-year vesting period. For stock-based awards that vest only upon the attainment of one or more performance goals set by Oncocyte at the time of the grant (sometimes referred to as milestone vesting), compensation cost is recognized if and when Oncocyte determines that it is probable that the performance condition or conditions will be, or have been, achieved. Oncocyte uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model for estimating the fair value of time-based options granted under Oncocyte’s equity plan. The fair value of each restricted stock unit (“RSU”) or award (“RSA”) is determined by the product of the number of units or shares granted and the grant date market price of the underlying common stock. Oncocyte has elected to treat stock-based payment awards with graded vesting schedules and time-based service conditions as a single award and recognizes stock-based compensation ratably on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Options have a maximum contractual term of ten years. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. Refer to Note 8 for additional information.

The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires Oncocyte to make certain assumptions including the expected option term, the expected volatility, the risk-free interest rate and the dividend yield. The expected term of employee stock options represents the weighted average period that the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. Oncocyte estimates the expected term of options granted based on its own experience. Oncocyte estimates the expected volatility using its own stock price volatility for a period equal to the expected term of the options. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on the United States government securities appropriate for the expected term of Oncocyte’s stock options. The dividend yield assumption is based on Oncocyte’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. Oncocyte has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and Oncocyte does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

All excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies from stock-based compensation awards accounted for under ASC 718 are recognized as income tax benefit or expense, respectively, in the statements of operations. An excess income tax benefit arises when the tax deduction of a share-based award for income tax purposes exceeds the compensation cost recognized for financial reporting purposes and, a tax deficiency arises when the compensation cost exceeds the tax deduction. Because Oncocyte has a full valuation allowance for all periods presented (see “Income Taxes” below), there was no impact to Oncocyte statements of operations for any excess tax benefits or deficiencies, as any excess benefit or deficiency would be offset by the change in the valuation allowance.

Retirement Plan

Oncocyte has an employee savings and retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plan is a defined contribution plan in which eligible employees may elect to have a percentage of their compensation contributed to the plan, subject to certain guidelines issued by the Internal Revenue Service. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, Oncocyte’s total contributions to the plan were $77,000 and $70,000, respectively.

Collaborative Arrangements

The Company analyzes its collaboration arrangements to assess whether they are within the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements, which includes determining whether such arrangements involve joint operating activities performed by parties that are both active participants in the activities and exposed to significant risks and rewards dependent on the commercial success of such activities. To the extent that the arrangement falls within the scope of ASC 808, the Company assesses whether the payments between the Company and its collaboration partner fall within the scope of other accounting literature. If the Company concludes that payments from the collaboration partner to the Company would represent consideration from a customer, the Company accounts for those payments within the scope of ASC 606. However, if the Company concludes that its collaboration partner is not a customer for certain activities and associated payments, the Company presents such payments as a reduction of the related expense, based on where the Company presents the underlying expense. See Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements” for additional information.

Income Taxes

Oncocyte and its subsidiaries will file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and combined California state return for the year ending December 31, 2025. Oncocyte accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, which prescribes the use of the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax asset or liability account balances are calculated at the balance sheet date using current tax laws and rates in effect. The provision for income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate in accordance with ASC 740-270, Income Taxes, Interim Reporting. The effective tax rate may be subject to fluctuations during the year as new information is obtained, which may affect the assumptions used to estimate the annual effective tax rate, including factors such as valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, the recognition or de-recognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, if any, and changes in or the interpretation of tax laws in jurisdictions where Oncocyte conducts business.

Oncocyte did not record any provision or benefit for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, as Oncocyte had a full valuation allowance for the periods presented.

Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Oncocyte’s judgments regarding future taxable income may change over time due to changes in market conditions, changes in tax laws, tax planning strategies or other factors. If Oncocyte’s assumptions and consequently its estimates change in the future, the valuation allowance may be increased or decreased, which may have a material impact on Oncocyte’s statements of operations. Oncocyte established a full valuation allowance for all periods presented due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from its net operating loss carry-forwards and other deferred tax assets.

The guidance also prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not sustainable upon examination by taxing authorities. Oncocyte will recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Oncocyte is not aware of any uncertain tax positions that could result in significant additional payments, accruals, or other material deviation as of March 31, 2025. Oncocyte is currently unaware of any tax issues under review. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits totaling $1.1 million.

On June 27, 2024, California enacted SB-167, which suspends the use of California net operating loss and limits the use of California research tax credits to $5.0 million each year for our fiscal years 2025-2027. On June 29, 2024, California enacted SB-175, which provides a refund mechanism for the incremental tax that was paid as a result of SB-167. The Company is evaluating the impact of the law changes but does not expect these law changes to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders after deducting cumulative unpaid dividends and accretion of the preferred stock, when applicable, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The weighted average shares outstanding - basic in the following table includes the effects of pre-funded warrants that were issued in April 2024 and February 2025 (refer to Note 7, “Common Stock Purchase Warrants” for additional information). Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders after deducting cumulative unpaid dividends and accretion of the preferred stock, when applicable, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method, or the two-class method for participating securities, whichever is more dilutive. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, all common stock equivalents are antidilutive because Oncocyte reported a net loss. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share of common stock:

3. Business Combinations and Contingent Consideration Liabilities

Acquisition of Insight Genetics, Inc.

On January 31, 2020 (the “Insight Merger Date”), Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Insight pursuant to the Insight Merger Agreement. Oncocyte determined there are two types of contingent consideration in connection with the Insight Merger, the Milestone Contingent Consideration and the Royalty Contingent Consideration discussed below.

There were three milestones comprising the Milestone Contingent Consideration, in connection with the Insight Merger which Oncocyte valued and recorded as part of the contingent consideration as of the Insight Merger Date (see table below), which consisted of (i) a payment for clinical trial completion and related data publication (“Milestone 1”), (ii) a payment for an affirmative final LCD from CMS for a specified lung cancer test (“Milestone 2”), and (iii) a payment for achieving specified CMS reimbursement milestones (“Milestone 3”). If achieved, any respective Milestone will be paid at the contractual value shown below, with the payment made either in cash or in shares of Oncocyte's common stock as determined by Oncocyte. There can be no assurance that any of the Milestones will be achieved.

The following table shows the Insight Merger Date contractual payment amounts, as applicable, and the corresponding fair value of each respective contingent consideration liability:


	Contractual Value		Fair Value on the Merger Date
	(In thousands)
Milestone 1	$	1,500	$	1,340
Milestone 2		3,000		1,830
Milestone 3 (a)		1,500		770
Royalty 1 (b)	See(b)			5,980
Royalty 2 (b)	See(b)			1,210
Total	$	6,000	$	11,130

(a)

Indicates the maximum amount payable if the Milestone is achieved.

(b)

As defined, Royalty Payments are based on a percentage of future revenues of DetermaIO and Pharma Services over their respective useful life, accordingly there is no fixed contractual value for the Royalty Contingent Consideration.

The fair value of the contingent consideration after the Insight Merger Date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in Oncocyte’s consolidated statements of operations. Since December 2023, Milestone 1 and Royalty 2 (Pharma Services) are not expected to be paid and are excluded from the current fair value. During 2025, based on Oncocyte’s reassessment of significant assumptions, there was an increase of approximately $31,000 to the fair value of the contingent consideration primarily attributable to revised estimates of the possible future payouts and, accordingly, this amount was recorded as a change in fair value of contingent consideration in the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Oncocyte uses a discounted cash flow valuation technique to determine the fair value of its Level 3 contingent consideration liabilities. The significant unobservable inputs used in Insight’s contingent consideration valuation on March 31, 2025, included: (i) a discount period, based on the expected Milestone payment dates, ranging from 1.7 years to 7.5 years, (ii) a discount rate of 13.2% to 13.4%, and (iii) a management probability estimate of 25% to 50%. The significant unobservable inputs used in Insight’s contingent consideration valuation on March 31, 2024, included: (i) a discount period, based on the expected Milestone payment dates, ranging from 1.25 years to 1.5 years, (ii) a discount rate of 16.2%, and (iii) a management probability estimate of 25% to 50%. Changes to significant unobservable inputs to different amounts could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The following tables reflect the activity for the Insight contingent consideration measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs:

Acquisition of Chronix Biomedical, Inc.

On April 15, 2021 (the “Chronix Merger Date”), Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Chronix pursuant to the Chronix Merger Agreement. As additional consideration for holders of certain classes and series of Chronix capital stock, the Chronix Merger Agreement required Oncocyte to pay certain contingent consideration. On February 8, 2023, the Company and the equity holder representative named in the Chronix Merger Agreement entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Chronix Merger Agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed that (i) Chronix’s equity holders will be paid earnout consideration of 10% of net collections for sales of specified tests and products, until the expiration of intellectual property related to such tests and products, (ii) Chronix’s equity holders will be paid 5% of the gross proceeds received from any sale of all or substantially all of the rights, titles, and interests in and to Chronix’s patents for use in transplantation medicine to such third-party, and (iii) all of the previous payment obligations were eliminated.

The fair value of the Chronix contingent consideration after the Chronix Merger Date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in Oncocyte’s consolidated statements of operations. During 2025, based on Oncocyte’s reassessment of significant assumptions, there was an increase of approximately $848,000 to the fair value of the contingent consideration primarily attributable to revised estimates of the possible future payouts and, accordingly, this amount was recorded as a change in fair value of contingent consideration in the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Oncocyte uses a discounted cash flow valuation technique to determine the fair value of its Level 3 contingent consideration liabilities. The significant unobservable inputs used in Chronix’s contingent consideration valuation on March 31, 2025, included: (i) a discount period, based on the related patent expiration dates, ranging from 9.6 years to 10.5 years, (ii) a discount rate of 13.2% to 13.5%, and (iii) a payout percentage of 10% based on the earnout provision. The significant unobservable inputs used in Chronix’s contingent consideration valuation on March 31, 2024, included: (i) a discount period, based on the related patent expiration dates, ranging from 9.6 years to 11.5 years, (ii) a discount rate of 14.6% to 15.6%, and (iii) a payout percentage of 10% based on the earnout provision. Changes to significant unobservable inputs to different amounts could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at the reporting date.

As of March 31, 2025 and 2024, the total Chronix contingent consideration fair values, as presented in the tables above, include $2.3 million of severance obligations related to the Chronix acquisition. The accompanying consolidated balance sheets separately present the Insight and Chronix total contingent consideration liabilities as current and noncurrent based on our expectations of the timing of product commercialization and subsequent revenues that trigger the payouts. Contingent consideration is not deductible for tax purposes, even if paid; therefore, no deferred tax assets related to the contingent consideration were recorded.

4. Property and Equipment, Net

Right-of-use and financing lease assets, net, machinery and equipment, net, and construction in progress were as follows:

Property and equipment depreciation and amortization expense amounted to $484,000 and $313,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

5. Intangible Assets, Net

As part of the Insight and Chronix acquisitions completed on January 31, 2020 and April 15, 2021, respectively, the Company acquired IPR&D and customer relationships (see Note 3). The original IPR&D balances were reassessed using the multi-period excess earnings method (“MPEEM”) approach and the Company recorded an impairment of approximately $5.0 million related to DetermaIO as of March 31, 2023. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the IPR&D balances were reassessed using the MPEEM approach and the results of the valuations noted that the carrying values of the DetermaIO and DetermaCNI related IPR&D intangible assets were greater than the fair market values. Accordingly, the Company recorded impairments of $6.8 million and $35.1 million related to DetermaIO and DetermaCNI, respectively, as of December 31, 2024.

The MPEEM valuation approach is a discounted cash flow valuation technique and was used to determine the Level 3 fair values of the IPR&D. The significant unobservable inputs used related to DetermaIO as of December 31, 2024, included: (i) a discount period of 19.5 years, based on the expected life of patent, and (ii) a weighted average cost of capital rate of 29.0%, as well as certain assumptions about future cash flows. This valuation approach yielded a fair value of $2.9 million as of December 31, 2024. The significant unobservable inputs used related to DetermaCNI as of December 31, 2024, included: (i) a discount period of 19.5 years, based on the expected life of patent, and (ii) a weighted average cost of capital rate of 19.5%, as well as certain assumptions about future cash flows. This valuation approach yielded a fair value of $11.7 million as of December 31, 2024. As market conditions change, the Company will re-evaluate assumptions used in the determination of fair value for IPR&D and is uncertain to the extent of the volatility in the unobservable inputs in the foreseeable future. Refer to Note 2, “Intangible Assets” for additional IPR&D information.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

Office and Facilities Leases

Irvine Office Lease

On December 23, 2019, Oncocyte and Cushing Ventures, LLC (“Landlord”) entered into an Office Lease Agreement (the “Irvine Lease”) of a building containing approximately 26,800 square feet of rentable space located at 15 Cushing in Irvine, California (the “Premises”) that serves as Oncocyte’s principal executive and administrative offices. The Irvine Lease has a term of 89 calendar months (the “Term”), which commenced on June 1, 2020 (the “Commencement Date”) and will end on October 31, 2027. Oncocyte agreed to pay base monthly rent in the amount of $61,640 during the first 12 months of the Term. Base monthly rent increases annually, over the base monthly rent then in effect, by 3.5%.

Effective as of January 2, 2025, Oncocyte, Landlord and Subtenant (as defined below under the caption "Irvine Office Sublease") entered into an amendment to the Irvine Lease, dated December 26, 2024 (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, among other things: (a) Oncocyte and Subtenant agreed that all rights to extend the Term of the Irvine Lease for a period of five years were terminated, and (b) Landlord and Oncocyte agreed that, provided the Company is not in default under any of the terms and conditions of the Irvine Lease that is continuing beyond any and all applicable notice and cure periods, then, commencing on July 1, 2025 and continuing on the first day of each calendar month thereafter, the provided letter of credit (as further discussed below) in the amount of $1.7 million (the “Letter of Credit Amount”) shall be reduced by an amount equal to $60,714.29 on each such date, until the Letter of Credit Amount is fully reduced, after which the letter of credit shall be deemed to have been terminated and Oncocyte shall have no further obligation to maintain or deliver the letter of credit under the Irvine Lease. The new Letter of Credit Amount will correspond to the Company’s restricted cash on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the reductions in the Letter of Credit Amount would correspondingly reduce the associated amount of such restricted cash.

In addition to base monthly rent, Oncocyte agreed to pay in monthly installments (a) all costs and expenses, other than certain excluded expenses, incurred by the lessor in each calendar year in connection with operating, maintaining, repairing (including replacements if repairs are not feasible or would not be effective) and managing the Premises and the building in which the Premises are located (“Expenses”), and (b) all real estate taxes and assessments on the Premises and the building in which the Premises are located, all personal property taxes for property that is owned by lessor and used in connection with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Premises, and costs and fees incurred in connection with seeking reductions in such tax liabilities (“Taxes”). Subject to certain exceptions, Expenses shall not be increased by more than 4% annually on a cumulative, compounded basis.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Oncocyte was entitled to an abatement of its obligations to pay Expenses and Taxes while constructing improvements to the Premises constituting “Tenant’s Work” under the Irvine Lease prior to the Commencement Date, except that Oncocyte was obligated to pay 43.7% of Expenses and Taxes during the period prior to the Commencement Date for its use of the second floor of the Premises, which was already built out as office space. The lessor provided Oncocyte with a “Tenant Improvement Allowance” in the amount of $1.3 million to pay for the plan, design, permitting, and construction of the improvements constituting Tenant’s Work. The lessor retained 1.5% of the Tenant Improvement Allowance as an administrative fee as provided in the Irvine Lease. As of June 2021, the lessor had provided $1.3 million of the total Tenant Improvement Allowance, which is being amortized over the Term.

Oncocyte has provided the lessor with a security deposit in the amount of $150,000 and a letter of credit in the initial amount of $1.7 million. The lessor may apply the security deposit, in whole or in part, for the payment of rent and any other amount that Oncocyte is or becomes obligated to pay under the Irvine Lease but fails to pay when due and beyond any cure period. The lessor may draw on the letter of credit from time to time to pay any amount that is unpaid and due, or if the original issuing bank notifies the lessor that the letter of credit will not be renewed or extended for the period required under the Irvine Lease and Oncocyte fails to timely provide a replacement letter of credit, or an “event of default” under the Irvine Lease occurs and continues beyond the applicable cure period, or if certain instances of insolvency or bankruptcy with respect to Oncocyte occur. Oncocyte is required to restore any portion of the security deposit that is applied by the lessor to payments due under the Irvine Lease, and Oncocyte is required to restore the amount available under the letter of credit to the required amount if any portion of the letter of credit is drawn by the lessor. The Irvine Lease provides that Oncocyte has the right to cancel the letter of credit at any time if it meets certain market capitalization and balance sheet thresholds provided that Oncocyte is not then in default under the Irvine Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period and the lessor has not determined that an event exists that would lead to an event of default. The Letter of Credit Amount shall be reduced as described in the Amendment above.

To obtain the letter of credit, Oncocyte has provided the issuing bank with a restricted cash deposit that the bank will hold to cover its obligation to pay any draws on the letter of credit by the lessor. The restricted cash may not be used for any other purpose. Accordingly, Oncocyte has reflected $1.7 million as restricted cash in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Irvine Office Sublease

On August 8, 2023, Oncocyte and Induce Biologics USA, Inc. (“Subtenant”) entered into a Sublease Agreement (the “Sublease Agreement”), which subsequently became effective as of September 14, 2023, upon the execution and delivery by the Company, Subtenant, and Landlord, of that certain Landlord’s Consent to Sublease dated September 12, 2023 (the “Consent Agreement”), under which Landlord consented to the Sublease Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein. The Sublease Agreement is subject and subordinate to the Irvine Lease.

Under the Sublease Agreement, the Company agreed to initially sublet to Subtenant a portion of the Premises consisting of approximately 13,400 square feet of rentable space for a term (the “Initial Period”) commencing on the date that is 120 days after the effective date of the Consent Agreement (the “Sublease Commencement Date”) and ending on the date that is 18 months following the Sublease Commencement Date or such earlier date as Subtenant may elect upon the exercise of its one-time option to accelerate such date upon 90 days prior written notice to the Company (the date on which the Initial Period ends, the “Expansion Date”). On the Expansion Date, the portion of the Premises that is subleased to Subtenant under the Sublease Agreement will automatically increase to include the remaining portion of the Premises, which consists of approximately 13,400 square feet of additional rentable space for a term (the “Expansion Period”) beginning on the Expansion Date through the expiration of the Irvine Lease on October 31, 2027, unless earlier terminated.

The Sublease Agreement provides that, from and after the Sublease Commencement Date, Subtenant will pay to the Company monthly base rent in the following amounts: (i) $36,850 for rental periods beginning on the Sublease Commencement Date and ending on or before December 31, 2024; (ii) $37,955 for rental periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025 and ending on or before June 20, 2025 (subject to adjustment in the event that Subtenant exercises its option to accelerate the Expansion Date, such that the Expansion Period begins prior to June 20, 2025); (iii) $75,844 for rental periods beginning on or after July 1, 2025 and ending on or before December 31, 2025; (iv) $78,188 for rental periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026 and ending on or before December 31, 2026; and (v) $80,534 for rental periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 and ending on or before October 31, 2027.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Following the Sublease Commencement Date, Subtenant is responsible for the payment of Additional Rent, including Expenses and Taxes (as each such term is defined in the Irvine Lease), provided that, with respect to the Initial Period, Subtenant will be responsible for only 50% of the Expenses and Taxes due. In addition, Subtenant paid the Company a security deposit in the amount of $101,987 in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Sublease Agreement.

The Sublease Agreement contains customary provisions with respect to, among other things, Subtenant’s obligation to comply with the Irvine Lease and applicable laws, the payment of utilities and similar services utilized by Subtenant with respect its use of the Premises, the indemnification of the Company by Subtenant, and the right of the Company to terminate the Sublease Agreement in its entirety and retake the Premises if Subtenant fails to remedy certain defaults of its obligations under the Sublease Agreement within specified time periods.

Nashville Leases

Insight operates a CLIA-certified laboratory and has additional office space located at 2 International Plaza, Nashville, Tennessee, under lease arrangements with MPC Holdings, LLC. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had Nashville office leases that comprised 8,362 square feet of rentable office space with a term ending April 2024. On January 1, 2024, the Company renewed its exiting leases with MPC Holdings, LLC and added a new lease agreement to further expand its Nashville office space. The new lease contains 2,319 square feet for an aggregate of 10,681 square feet of rentable space. Lab space is approximately 4,826 square feet of the total. The new lease agreements each have an initial term of 36 months, which commenced on January 1, 2024 and will end in January 2027. The Company has the option to renew the term of each lease for four additional one year periods.

The office and facilities leases discussed above are operating leases under ASC 842 and are included in the tables below. The tables below provide the amounts recorded in connection with the application of ASC 842 for Oncocyte’s operating and financing leases (see Note 2 for additional policy information).

Financing Leases

Oncocyte had various financing leases for certain laboratory and other equipment, as shown in the tables below. Oncocyte’s lease obligations are collateralized by the equipment financed under the lease schedules.

Financing lease amortization expense amounted to $110,000 and zero for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Litigation – General

Oncocyte may be subject to various claims and contingencies in the ordinary course of its business, including those related to litigation, business transactions, employee-related matters, and other matters. When Oncocyte is aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a loss will result and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, Oncocyte will record a liability for the loss. If the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, Oncocyte discloses the claim if the likelihood of a potential loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved could be material.

On March 3, 2025, the Company received a letter claiming that a recent study regarding the Company's DetermaIO immuno-oncology assay for breast cancer had triggered the Company’s first milestone payment obligation under the January 10, 2020 Agreement and Plan of Merger between the Company, Insight Genetics, Inc., and certain other parties. The Company strongly disputes the position taken in the letter, believes the arguments to be ill-founded, and intends to vigorously defend its own position. More information regarding the milestone payments related to the Insight Genetics acquisition may be found in Note 3, “Business Combinations and Contingent Consideration Liabilities.”

Tax Filings

Oncocyte tax filings are subject to audit by taxing authorities in jurisdictions where it conducts business. These audits may result in assessments of additional taxes that are subsequently resolved with the authorities or potentially through the courts. Management believes Oncocyte has adequately provided for any ultimate amounts that are likely to result from these audits; however, final assessments, if any, could be significantly different than the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements. See Note 2, “Income Taxes” for additional information.

Employment Contracts

Oncocyte has entered into employment and severance benefit contracts with certain executive officers. Under the provisions of the contracts, Oncocyte may be required to incur severance obligations for matters relating to changes in control, as defined in the respective contracts, and certain terminations of executives. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Oncocyte accrued approximately $2.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively, in severance obligations for certain executive officers, in accordance with the severance benefit provisions of their respective employment and severance benefit agreements, primarily related to Oncocyte’s acquisition of Chronix in 2021. For the periods presented, management has classified $2.3 million of the accrued severance obligations related to the Chronix acquisition as current and noncurrent based on our expectations of the timing of product commercialization and subsequent revenues that trigger the payouts. Such balances are included in the consolidated balance sheets under contingent consideration liabilities, current and noncurrent. See Note 3, “Business Combinations and Contingent Consideration – Acquisition of Chronix Biomedical, Inc.” for additional information.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, Oncocyte may provide indemnification of varying scope under Oncocyte’s agreements with other companies or consultants, typically Oncocyte’s clinical research organizations, investigators, clinical sites, suppliers and others. Pursuant to these agreements, Oncocyte will generally agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse the indemnified parties for losses and expenses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties arising from claims of third parties in connection with the use or testing of Oncocyte’s diagnostic tests. Indemnification provisions could also cover third party infringement claims with respect to patent rights, copyrights, or other intellectual property pertaining to Oncocyte’s diagnostic tests. Oncocyte’s office and laboratory facility leases also will generally contain indemnification obligations, including obligations for indemnification of the lessor for environmental law matters and injuries to persons or property of others, arising from Oncocyte’s use or occupancy of the leased property. The term of these indemnification agreements will generally continue in effect after the termination or expiration of the particular research, development, services, lease, or license agreement to which they relate. The Razor Stock Purchase Agreement (see Note 2, “Investments in Privately Held Companies”) also contains provisions under which Oncocyte has agreed to indemnify Razor and Encore Clinical, Inc., a former stockholder of Razor, from losses and expenses resulting from breaches or inaccuracy of Oncocyte’s representations and warranties and breaches or nonfulfillment of Oncocyte’s covenants, agreements, and obligations under the Razor Stock Purchase Agreement. Oncocyte periodically enters into underwriting and securities sales agreements with broker-dealers in connection with the offer and sale of Oncocyte securities. The terms of those underwriting and securities sales agreements include indemnification provisions pursuant to which Oncocyte agrees to indemnify the broker-dealers from certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in connection with the offer and sale of Oncocyte securities. The potential future payments Oncocyte could be required to make under these indemnification agreements will generally not be subject to any specified maximum amounts. Historically, Oncocyte has not been subject to any claims or demands for indemnification. Oncocyte also maintains various liability insurance policies that limit Oncocyte’s financial exposure. As a result, Oncocyte management believes that the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Accordingly, Oncocyte has not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

7. Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Shareholders’ Equity

Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

On April 13, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with institutional accredited investors (the “Investors”) in a registered direct offering of 11,765 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, which shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into a total of 384,477 shares of the Company's common stock, at a conversion price of $30.60 per share. The purchase price of each share of Series A Preferred Stock was $850, which included an original issue discount to the stated value of $1,000 per share. The rights, preferences and privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock are set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Determination, which the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of California. The Securities Purchase Agreement provided that the closing of the Series A Preferred Stock offering will occur, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, in two equal tranches of $5,000,000 each for aggregate gross proceeds from both closings of $10,000,000. The first closing occurred on June 1, 2022, and Oncocyte received net proceeds of approximately $4.9 million from the Series A Preferred Stock issued from the first tranche. The second closing did not occur due to certain closing conditions. The Series A Preferred Stock was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at the holder’s option.

In the event of the Company’s liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, holders of Series A Preferred Stock would have received a payment equal to the stated value of the Series A Preferred Stock plus accrued but unpaid dividends and any other amounts that may have become payable on the Series A Preferred Stock. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled to receive cumulative dividends at a rate per share (as a percentage of stated value) of 6% per annum, payable quarterly in cash or, at our option, by accreting such dividends to the stated value.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Shares of Series A Preferred Stock generally had no voting rights, except as required by law and except that the consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock would be required to amend any provision of our certificate of incorporation that would have had a materially adverse effect on the rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. Additionally, as long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remained outstanding, unless the holders of at least 51% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have otherwise given prior written consent, we, on a consolidated basis with our subsidiaries, were not permitted to (1) have less than $8 million of unrestricted, unencumbered cash on hand (“Cash Minimum Requirement”); (2) other than certain permitted indebtedness, incur indebtedness to the extent that our aggregate indebtedness exceeds $15 million; (3) enter into any agreement (including any indenture, credit agreement or other debt instrument) that by its terms prohibited, prevented, or otherwise limited our ability to pay dividends on, or redeem, the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Determination; or (4) authorize or issue any class or series of preferred stock or other capital stock of the Company that ranks senior or pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock.

The Company was required to redeem, for cash, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock on the earlier to occur of (1) April 8, 2024, (2) the commencement of certain a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, receivership, or similar proceedings against the Company or its assets, (3) a Change of Control Transaction (as defined) and (4) at the election and upon notice of 51% in interest of the holders, if the Company failed to meet the Cash Minimum Requirement. Additionally, the Company had the right to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock for cash upon 30 days prior notice to the holders; provided if the Company undertakes a capital raise in connection with such redemption, the Investors will have the right to participate in such financing.

On April 5, 2023, the Company redeemed 1,064 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for approximately $1.1 million. In connection with the April 2023 redemption, the Company recorded a deemed dividend of $118,000 based on the difference between the Series A Preferred Stock redemption value and carrying value. On April 15, 2024, Company redeemed the remaining 4,818 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for approximately $5.4 million (see “Common Stock – April 2024 Offering” below). As of April 15, 2024, the Company accreted dividends of $570,000, net of the April 2023 redemption.

The issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock was completed pursuant to the Company’s effective “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-256650), filed with the SEC on May 28, 2021 and declared effective by the SEC on June 8, 2021, and an accompanying prospectus dated June 8, 2021 as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated April 13, 2022.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A holder of the pre-funded warrants may not exercise any portion of such holder’s pre-funded warrants to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise. The pre-funded warrants are exercisable immediately and will expire when exercised in full. As of March 31, 2025, none of such pre-funded warrants have been exercised.

The gross proceeds to the Company from the April 2024 Offering were approximately $15.8 million, before deducting approximately $538,000 in placement agent fees and expenses and offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company used the net proceeds received for general corporate purposes and working capital. In addition, approximately $5.4 million of the net proceeds was used to redeem the outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.

August 2024 Offering

On August 9, 2024, the Company entered into a sales agreement with a sales agent, pursuant to which the Company could offer and sell from time to time up to an aggregate of $7.5 million of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Placement Shares”), through the sales agent (the “August 2024 Offering”).

Sales of the Placement Shares were made in sales deemed to be "at-the-market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act. The sales agent used commercially reasonable efforts to sell, on the Company’s behalf, all of the Placement Shares requested to be sold by the Company, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, the terms of the sales agreement, and applicable law and regulations. The Company could also sell Placement Shares to the sales agent as principal in negotiated transactions. The Company had no obligation to sell any Placement Shares, and could at any time suspend offers under the sales agreement or terminate the sales agreement. The sales agreement would terminate, and offer and sale of the Placement Shares pursuant to the sales agreement would cease, upon the earlier of (a) the issuance and sale of all of the Placement Shares subject to the sales agreement or (b) the termination of the sales agreement by the sales agent or the Company pursuant to the terms thereof. The sales agreement contained customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, as well as indemnification obligations of the Company for certain liabilities under the Securities Act. On February 6, 2025, the Company provided notice of its intention to terminate the sales agreement. As a result, on February 8, 2025, the sales agreement terminated in accordance with its terms.

As of February 8, 2025, the Company sold 610,622 Placement Shares for net proceeds of approximately $1.7 million, at an average purchase price of $3.05 per share. In addition, the Company agreed to pay certain expenses incurred by the sales agent in connection with the offering. Total offering expenses incurred in the amount of $367,000 were being deferred and expensed ratably over a one year period. On February 8, 2025, the remaining deferred financing costs of $279,000 were recognized as a general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

The Placement Shares were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281159) filed with the SEC on August 1, 2024 and declared effective by the SEC on August 7, 2024, the base prospectus contained within the registration statement, and a prospectus supplement dated August 9, 2024.

Unregistered Restricted Stock Issuance

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued 12,000 shares of restricted common stock in connection with an ongoing investor relations consulting service arrangement for a total fair value of $36,000.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Oncocyte had common stock purchase warrants issued and outstanding of 760,866. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, no warrants were exercised or expired. As of March 31, 2025, the outstanding warrants had exercise prices ranging from $30.60 to $109.20 per share, are set to expire on various dates ranging from February 2027 to October 2029 and have a weighted average remaining life of 2.07 years. Certain warrants have “cashless exercise” provisions meaning that the value of a portion of warrant shares may be used to pay the exercise price rather than payment in cash, which may be exercised under any circumstances in the case of the Bank Warrants discussed below or, in the case of certain other warrants, only if a registration statement for the warrants and underlying shares of common stock is not effective under the Securities Act or a prospectus in the registration statement is not available for the issuance of shares upon the exercise of the warrants. All of the outstanding warrants meet the equity classification criteria and have been classified as equity, refer to Note 2, “Accounting for Warrants” for additional information.

In connection with the April 2024 Offering, the Company issued pre-funded warrants to purchase 342,888 shares of common stock. In connection with the February 2025 Offering, the Company issued additional pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,069,926 shares of common stock. For accounting purposes, the pre-funded warrants are equity-classified, contain no contingencies to exercise and are therefore considered outstanding for purposes of calculating basic earnings per share. As of March 31, 2025, none of such pre-funded warrants have been exercised.

Bank Warrants

In connection with a loan that matured in September 2022 from Silicon Valley Bank (the “Bank”), in February 2017, Oncocyte issued common stock purchase warrants to the Bank (the “2017 Bank Warrants”). The Bank was issued warrants to purchase 412 shares of Oncocyte common stock at an exercise price of $97.00 per share, through February 21, 2027. In March 2017, the Bank was issued warrants to purchase an additional 366 shares at an exercise price of $109.20 per share, through March 23, 2027. In October 2019, Oncocyte issued a common stock purchase warrant to the Bank (the “2019 Bank Warrant”) entitling the Bank to purchase 4,928 shares of Oncocyte common stock at an exercise price of $33.80 per share, through October 17, 2029. The Bank may elect to exercise the 2017 Bank Warrants and the 2019 Bank Warrant on a “cashless exercise” basis and receive a number of shares determined by multiplying the number of shares for which the Bank Warrant is being exercised by (A) the excess of the fair market value of the common stock over the applicable Warrant Price, divided by (B) the fair market value of the common stock. The fair market value of the common stock will be last closing or sale price on a national securities exchange, interdealer quotation system, or over-the-counter market. These warrants meet the equity classification criteria and have been classified as equity. As of March 31, 2025, no Bank Warrants have been exercised.

8. Stock-Based Compensation

Equity Incentive Plan

In August 2018, Oncocyte shareholders approved a new Equity Incentive Plan to replace the 2010 Stock Option Plan (the “2010 Plan”) and in October 2024, Oncocyte shareholders approved an amendment and restatement of such new Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Incentive Plan”). The 2018 Incentive Plan will expire on July 2, 2028. In initially adopting the 2018 Incentive Plan, Oncocyte terminated the 2010 Plan and ceased to grant any additional stock options or sell any stock under restricted stock purchase agreements under the 2010 Plan; however, stock options issued under the 2010 Plan continue in effect in accordance with their terms and the terms of the 2010 Plan until the exercise or expiration of the individual options. Total remaining stock options outstanding under the 2010 Plan as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, were 12,467 and 16,217, respectively.

As of March 31, 2025, 2,560,000 aggregate shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance under the equity incentive plans for the grant of stock options or the sale of restricted stock or for the settlement of RSUs. Oncocyte may also grant stock appreciation rights under the 2018 Incentive Plan. Upon the exercise of stock options, the issuance of RSAs, or the delivery of shares pursuant to vested RSUs or performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”), it is Oncocyte’s policy to issue new shares of common stock. The Board may amend or modify the 2018 Incentive Plan at any time, subject to any required stockholder approval. Shares available for grant under the 2018 Incentive Plan as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, were 356,045 and 1,026,314, respectively.

Option Awards

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company granted 20,000 total stock options with a weighted average grant date fair value of $2.63 per option. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not grant any stock options. The assumptions used to calculate the Black-Scholes grant date fair value for such time-based awards were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2025			2024
Expected life	6.18 years			—
Risk-free interest rates		4.15	%	—
Volatility		103.71	%	—
Dividend yield		0	%	—

In October 2024, the Company awarded a 200,000 stock option grant with standard time-based vesting conditions, a grant date market price of $3.05 and an exercise price of $2.87 to a Company executive. The fair value of such award was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model and the following assumptions: estimated risk-free interest rate of 4.10 percent; term of 9.7 years; expected volatility of 105.0 percent; and expected dividend yield of 0 percent. The risk-free interest rate was determined based on the yields available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues. The term is based on the contractual life. The expected stock price volatility was determined using historical volatility. The expected dividend yield was based on expectations regarding dividend payments. The grant date fair value of the award was $1.65, amounting to a total fair value of $330,000.

In August 2023, the Company awarded 120,000 stock option grants with market-based and time-based vesting conditions, and a grant date market price and exercise price of $3.34 to certain executives. The fair value of such awards was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions and estimates utilized in the model include the risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, expected stock volatility and the estimated period to achievement of the performance and market conditions, which are subject to the achievement of the market-based goals established by the Company and the continued employment of the executives through December 31, 2025. These awards vest only to the extent that the market-based conditions are satisfied as specified in the vesting conditions. The grant date fair value and associated compensation cost of the market-based awards reflect the probability of the market condition being achieved, and the Company will recognize this compensation cost regardless of the actual achievement of the market-based conditions. Assumptions utilized in connection with the Monte Carlo valuation technique included: estimated risk-free interest rate of 4.81 percent; term of 6.19 years; expected volatility of 91.0 percent; and expected dividend yield of 0 percent. The risk-free interest rate was determined based on the yields available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues. The expected stock price volatility was determined using historical volatility. The expected dividend yield was based on expectations regarding dividend payments. Based on the market-based conditions, the grant date fair values of these awards ranged from $1.09 to $1.74, amounting to a total fair value of approximately $156,000. As of March 31, 2025, no awards have vested as none of the market-based conditions have been satisfied.

RSU Awards

The weighted average grant date fair value of RSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $3.18 per unit. No RSUs were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The aggregate fair value of RSUs vested during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was zero as no RSUs vested during these periods.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In October 2024, the Company awarded 100,000 PSUs with market-based and service-based vesting conditions, and a grant date market price of $3.05 to a Company executive. Vesting is subject to continuous service as an employee of the Company or a subsidiary thereof from hire date through the applicable vesting date, and shall performance vest as follows: (i) 50% will vest upon the Company’s achievement of an aggregate market value of voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the Company of $75.0 million or more, such that the Company is no longer subject to the “Baby Shelf Rules” of Form S-3, and (ii) 50% will vest upon the Company’s achievement of a market capitalization of $200.0 million, which shall be determined based on the 30-day volume weighted average price of the common stock measured as of the end of each full calendar month following the date of grant. No units will vest prior to June 20, 2025, and any units that are not performance vested on December 31, 2026 shall automatically be forfeited. The fair value of such award was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions and estimates utilized in the model include the risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, expected stock volatility and the expected period to achievement of the market conditions. The grant date fair value and associated compensation cost of the market-based award reflect the probability of the market condition being achieved, and the Company will recognize this compensation cost regardless of the actual achievement of the market-based conditions. Assumptions utilized in connection with the Monte Carlo valuation technique included: estimated risk-free interest rate of 3.93 percent; term of 2.2 years; expected volatility of 90.0 percent; and expected dividend yield of 0 percent. The risk-free interest rate was determined based on the yields available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues. The expected stock price volatility was determined using historical volatility. The expected dividend yield was based on expectations regarding dividend payments. Based on the two described performance vesting conditions, the grant date fair values were $2.03 and $1.43, respectively, amounting to a total fair value of $173,000.

The Collaboration Agreement has a term of 10 years unless earlier terminated pursuant to customary termination provisions.

The Collaboration Agreement provides that through the oversight of a joint steering committee comprised of representatives from both parties, the parties will collaborate on the development of (i) the Company’s series of GraftAssureIQ™ Transplant Monitoring Assays to measure and test the concentration of donor-derived cell free DNA for RUO (the “RUO Assays”); and (ii) the Company’s GraftAssureDx™ Transplant Monitoring Assays that have received regulatory approval as an in vitro diagnostic device (the “IVD Kits”) for use on one or more Bio-Rad ddPCR instruments. Pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement, and toward the development of the RUO Assays and the IVD Kits, the Company will collect and screen samples, conduct feasibility testing and stability studies, and perform analytical validation, among other things; and Bio-Rad will supply its ddPCR instruments and platforms as well as manufacture and supply all consumables.

Prior to the commercial launch of the RUO Assays, under the Collaboration Agreement, the parties will develop a plan to market and sell the RUO Assays. The Company will be responsible for the manufacture and supply of all RUO Assays, and Bio-Rad will supply to the Company Bio-Rad’s ddPCR instruments and reagents for use in commercializing the RUO Assays, which products will be purchased by the Company exclusively from Bio-Rad. The Company and Bio-Rad will be jointly responsible for co-promoting and co-marketing the RUO Assays within the United States and Germany (the “Territory”). The Company has the exclusive right to sell the RUO Assays in the Territory exclusively with the use of Bio-Rad ddPCR instruments and reagents. Bio-Rad will be responsible for promoting and marketing, and has the exclusive right to sell, the RUO Assays outside the Territory. For the sales of the RUO Assays in the Territory, the Company will pay to Bio-Rad a single digit royalty payment based on net sales. The Company will manufacture and supply the RUO Assays to Bio-Rad for resale outside the Territory.

Additionally, the Collaboration Agreement provides Bio-Rad a 90-day exclusive negotiating period, post regulatory clearance, for the right to exclusively promote, market and sell IVD Kits worldwide subject to certain conditions. If and when such option is exercised, Bio-Rad will purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value per share, at the then-current market price per share, up to a specified maximum aggregate purchase price, and the Company will manufacture and supply IVD Kits exclusively for Bio-Rad. See Note 9, “Related Party Transactions – Financing Transactions” for additional information.

ONCOCYTE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On November 8, 2024, Oncocyte and Bio-Rad entered into a binding Memorandum of Understanding (the “Memorandum”) in connection with the Collaboration Agreement. The Memorandum establishes additional activities (described below) to be performed by Oncocyte and Bio-Rad prior to the commercial launch of the RUO Assays specifically related to pilot study sites outside the Territory (the “Pilot Sites”).

Pursuant to the Memorandum, Oncocyte (i) will setup commercialization of Pilot Sites to use the RUO Assays, (ii) may sell RUO Assays to Pilot Sites, (iii) will train and support the Pilot Sites on the use of the RUO Assays, and (iv) if Oncocyte receives any net sales from the sale of the RUO Assays to the Pilot Sites, then Oncocyte shall pay to Bio-Rad a royalty payment based on a percentage of such net sales under the terms and conditions of the Collaboration Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the Memorandum, Bio-Rad will evaluate commercialization efforts for the RUO Assays, which will include (i) supporting installation and training for Pilot Sites, and (ii) evaluating distribution of the RUO Assays to Pilot Sites.

See Note 9, “Related Party Transactions – Bio-Rad Transactions” for additional information. Beginning in September 2024, the Company has capitalized certain inventory costs (see Note 2, “Inventories” for additional information).

11. Segment Reporting

The Company operates and reports its results in one reportable segment, on a consolidated basis. The Company reports segment information based on the management approach and organizes its business based on products and services. The management approach designates the internal reporting information regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance as the basis for determining a company’s reportable segments. The Company’s CODM is the senior executive management team that includes the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Oncocyte is an early-stage diagnostics technology company with core operations that include the research, development and commercialization of diagnostic tests. Currently, the Company’s revenues include Pharma Services from its pharmaceutical customers, including testing for biomarker discovery, assay design and development, clinical trial support, and a broad spectrum of biomarker tests, and to a lesser extent from performing Laboratory Developed Test Services (see Note 2, “Revenue Recognition” for additional information). Additionally, the Company is primarily focused on developing and commercializing new diagnostic tests for medical use related to organ transplant and in the field of oncology, accordingly, extensive resources, time and expense will be required to complete the development and commercialization of those tests.

Adjusted income or loss from operations is the measure of segment profit or loss that the CODM uses in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Adjusted income or loss from operations is used to monitor budget versus actual results and for long range planning. Segment loss from operations in the table below includes revenues, cost of revenues, research and development, and other significant operating expenses directly attributable to our reportable segment. Such operating expenses exclude depreciation and amortization expenses, stock-based compensation, the change in fair value of contingent consideration, and impairments. As an early-stage company with limited revenue, management believes this measure of profit or loss is helpful in assessing our ongoing performance, providing insight into the Company’s core operating costs and performance by excluding certain noncash items that may obscure the underlying trends in the business. The reconciling items and significant segment expense categories and amounts, as included in the table below, are based on the Company’s internal general ledger reporting system that is used in preparing our consolidated financial statements and are included in determining the measure of segment profit or loss that is used by the CODM.

The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as total assets. Total segment expenditures for additions to long-lived assets is reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows as a component of cash used in investing activities.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide information necessary to understand our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 included elsewhere in this Report, and highlight certain other information which, in the opinion of management, will enhance a reader’s understanding of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations. These historical consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of our future performance. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains a number of forward-looking statements, all of which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risks described throughout this filing, particularly under Risk Factors in this Report and those Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A. of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 as filed with the SEC. For additional information, refer to the section above entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

We are a pioneering diagnostics technology company. Our mission is to democratize access to novel molecular diagnostic testing to improve patient outcomes.

We do this primarily by developing molecular diagnostic test kits that empower our customers to run their own tests to participate in the patient-care value chain, which is counter-positioned with the central laboratory model. Our decentralized approach also puts testing in the hands of researchers to enable more studies, which inspires innovation, which we believe, can improve standards of care while also creating demand for more testing. We develop tests that measure both established biomarkers as well as pioneer the adoption of new and more effective biomarkers.

We believe that combining innovative science with a simple, but disruptive, business model can create enormous value. This model is designed to empower doctors to reduce uncertainty to make better decisions to save lives as well as enable researchers to measure biomarkers to inspire innovation.

Our customer institutions are hospitals, transplant centers, and labs. The decision to deploy our tests on behalf of patients or research studies supports front line doctors, including surgeons, nephrologists and oncologists, as well as researchers, pathologists, lab directors, medical directors, department heads, lab managers, and chief medical officers.

Our operating premise is that democratizing access to testing to foster scientific innovation and better treatments ultimately reduces the cost of care, while expanding access and improving outcomes.

At the heart, we are a science-driven organization that champions scientific integrity and inquiry. We employ world-renowned scientists who generate intellectual property in our strategic target markets. We have built and acquired an intellectual property portfolio that we believe will enable us to gain share in well-established clinical and research markets.

Our current intellectual property portfolio comprises three general areas: 1) organ transplant, 2) oncology therapy selection and 3) oncology therapy monitoring. Within these categories, we have developed or are in the process of developing LDTs that can be run at our Nashville, Tennessee laboratory, kitted RUO tests, and kitted clinical tests that can be run by local labs.

Our primary near-term strategic market is organ transplant. Our molecular diagnostic tests are designed to help the industry to better address one of the leading challenges in the transplantation market – which is the body’s potential to reject the donor organ. We do this by detecting early evidence of graft organ damage in the blood through assessing a known biomarker known as donor-derived cell-free DNA. GraftAssureCore (Kidney), for example, can find donor kidney damage up to 11 months sooner than other protocols. GraftAssureCore is analytically and clinically validated in three major solid organ transplant types (kidney, liver and heart) by peer reviewed international publications. We received a positive coverage decision from MolDx for GraftAssureCore (Kidney) in August of 2023, and it became commercially available for ordering in January 2024 through our CLIA laboratory in Nashville, Tennessee. GraftAssureCore (Kidney) is now broadly available to transplant professionals upon request. In December 2024, we confirmed Medicare reimbursement for also monitoring certain high-risk patients, that is, those with newly developed donor-specific antibodies.

In July 2024, we began to commercialize the technology underlying GraftAssureCore (Kidney) by distributing its sister product, GraftAssureIQ, which is intended to be sold and used for research purposes and is labeled as RUO. We expect to distribute our RUO production through a mix of direct sales, partnering and distribution agreements, and licensing. We have entered into a global strategic partnership agreement with Bio-Rad to collaborate in the development and the commercialization of RUO and IVD kitted transplant products for clinical use (see Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information).

Under strict regulatory rules, our kitted tests may not be used in a clinical treatment setting until they have attained IVD clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in the U.S. and In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices Regulation approval in the European Union. As such, we are working with these regulatory bodies to attain such clearance and approval, as applicable, supporting future distribution and higher sales of our products for clinical use.

We also have a laboratory and pharma services lab, certified under the CLIA and accredited by the College of American Pathologists, in Nashville, Tennessee, and a research and development lab in Göttingen, Germany. Our innovation centers in Nashville and Germany employ world-renowned research scientists who, we believe, are leaders in their fields.

Our secondary strategic market is in the field of oncology – namely through diagnostic tests that can measure and predict which patients will best respond to certain types of therapies, as well as provide efficacy monitoring for therapies. For example, we are continuing to develop DetermaIO, a test with promising data supporting its potential to help identify patients likely to respond to checkpoint inhibitor drugs. This new class of drugs modulate the immune response and show activity in multiple solid tumor types including non-small cell lung cancer, and triple negative breast cancer. A kitted research product format of the underlying technology began proof-of-concept development in 2023. The application of immunotherapy is a global problem, and thus we expect partnering opportunities for each of our products as they reach clinical maturity. We expect to begin commercializing our oncology product line, which includes DetermaIO, over the next 12 months.

The inherent uncertainties of developing and commercializing new diagnostic tests for medical use make it impossible to predict the amount of time and expense that will be required to complete the development and commercialization of those tests. There is no assurance that we will be successful in developing new technology or diagnostic tests, nor that any technology or diagnostic tests that we may develop will be proven safe and effective in diagnosis of cancer in humans or will be successfully commercialized. We expect that our operating expenses will continue to increase if we successfully complete the development of DetermaIO and commercialize this test.

We also perform other assay development and clinical testing services for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies through our Pharma Services operations.

We believe that the experience of our team with diverse technologies through our Pharma Services activities, strong scientific integrity regarding evidence generation and innovation mentality, alongside our flexibility in operations and regulatory strategy, will drive our success, differentiate us from our competition, and are foundational to our future. We are focusing on executing the technology priorities discussed herein, which have evolved to reflect our operations and strategic vision.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024

Total net revenue increased to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $176,000 in the comparable prior period from Pharma Services as further discussed below. Future Pharma Services revenue is expected to be impacted as a result of our shift in strategic focus on commercializing our transplant kitted tests, and deploying our sales personnel toward signing new hospital research laboratory customers.

Net loss was $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $9.1 million for the comparable prior period. Net loss reduced by $2.5 million due to increased Pharma Services revenue, the change in fair value of contingent consideration and a prior year impairment charge, which were partially offset by increases in certain other operating expenses as summarized below.

•

Pharma Services revenue increased by $2.0 million. We earned revenue from one existing customer in the amount of approximately $2.1 million during the first quarter of 2025. See below for additional information.

•

Cost of revenues increased by $697,000, primarily related to labor and allocated overhead associated with performing our Pharma Services. See below for additional information.

•

Cost of revenues - amortization of acquired intangibles decreased by $15,000. This relates to noncash amortization of our customer relationship intangible assets acquired as part of our merger with Insight, which became fully amortized in the first quarter of 2025.

•

Research and development expenses increased by $612,000, as we continue development of GraftAssureCore, GraftAsssureIQ, GraftAssureDx, DetermaIO and DetermaCNI. The main drivers of the increase were facilities and insurance costs, laboratory costs and severance costs, partially offset by personnel-related expenses and professional fees (see below for additional details).

•

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $360,000, primarily attributable to continued ramp up in sales, marketing and advertising activities related to the transplant business, as well as supporting the commercialization efforts within oncology. The main drivers of the increase were personnel-related expenses, depreciation and amortization, and other expenses, which are primarily comprised of travel and entertainment, partially offset by professional fees (see below for additional details).

•

General and administrative expenses increased by $442,000, primarily due to increases in personnel-related expenses, professional fees and stock-based compensation, partially offset by facilities and insurance costs (see below for additional details).

•

Change in fair value of contingent consideration was a loss of $879,000 in 2025 compared to a loss of $3.3 million in 2024. This change was due to changes in the fair value model inputs and revised estimates on if and when future payouts will occur. See below for additional information.

•

Impairment loss on held for sale assets in 2024 relates to various agreements to sell laboratory equipment and the subsequent fair value adjustments. See Note 2, “Assets Held for Sale,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information.

•

Total other income, net decreased by $10,000, primarily due to additional interest expense related to our financing leases in 2025 compared to 2024. See below for additional information.

Revenues

The following table shows our service revenues:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2025		2024		$ Change			% Change
	(In thousands, except percentage change values)
Pharma Services	$	2,138	$	154	$	1,984			1288	%
Laboratory Developed Test Services		—		22		(22	)		(100	)%
Total	$	2,138	$	176	$	1,962			1115	%

Pharma Services are generally performed on a time and materials basis. Upon our completion of the service to the customer in accordance with the contract, we have the right to bill the customer for the agreed upon price (either on a per test or per deliverable basis) and recognize the Pharma Services revenue at that time, on an accrual basis. Pharma Services revenues are generated under discrete agreements for particular customer projects that generally expire with the completion or termination of the customer’s project. Accordingly, different customers may account for greater or lesser portions of Pharma Services during different accounting periods, and Pharma Services revenues may exhibit a larger variance from accounting period to accounting period than other revenues such as Laboratory Developed Test Services revenue. Refer to Note 2, “Revenue Recognition – Pharma Services Revenue” and “Disaggregation of Revenues and Concentrations of Credit Risk,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information.

Laboratory Developed Test Services generally related to payments received from sales prior to the Razor Sale Transaction (see Note 2, “Investments in Privately Held Companies,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report). We generated revenue from performing DetermaRx tests on clinical samples through orders received from physicians, hospitals, and other healthcare providers. For all payers other than Medicare, we needed to consider the novelty of the test, the uncertainty of receiving payment, or being subject to claims for a refund, from payers with whom it does not have a sufficient payment collection history or contractual reimbursement agreements. Accordingly, for those payers, we recognized revenue upon payment. Refer to Note 2, “Revenue Recognition – Laboratory Developed Test Services,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues generally consists of cost of materials, direct labor including payroll, payroll taxes, bonus, benefit and stock-based compensation, equipment and infrastructure expenses, clinical sample costs associated with performing Pharma Services, and amortization of acquired intangible assets. Infrastructure expenses include depreciation of laboratory equipment, allocated rent costs and leasehold improvements. Cost of revenues for Pharma Services varies depending on the nature, timing, and scope of customer projects.

Research and Development Expenses

A summary of the main drivers of the change in research and development expenses is as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2025			2024			$ Change			% Change
	(In thousands, except percentage change values)
Personnel-related expenses	$	1,023		$	1,185		$	(162	)		(14	)%
Depreciation and amortization		284			237			47			20	%
Stock-based compensation		195			207			(12	)		(6	)%
Laboratory supplies and expenses		456			247			209			85	%
Facilities and insurance		660			186			474			255	%
Professional fees, legal, and outside services		207			234			(27	)		(12	)%
Severance		83			—			83			100	%
Other		11			16			(5	)		(31	)%
Clinical trials		5			—			5			100	%
Total	$	2,924		$	2,312		$	612			26	%
% of Net Revenue		137	%		1314	%					(1177	)%

We expect to continue to incur a significant amount of research and development expenses for the foreseeable future. We will continue development of GraftAssureCore, GraftAssureIQ, GraftAssureDx, DetermaIO and DetermaCNI. Our future research and development efforts and expenses will also depend on the amount of capital that we are able to raise to finance those activities and whether we acquire rights to any new diagnostic tests. A portion of our costs for leasing and operating our CLIA laboratory in Tennessee, and in Germany with Chronix, will also be included in research and development expenses to the extent allocated to the development of our diagnostic tests.

We intend to pursue a clinical trial in conjunction with our IVD submission in 2025, supporting our transplant products. We also may commence clinical trials of DetermaIO if we develop that diagnostic test to the point where we determine that its use as a clinical diagnostic appears to be feasible.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

A summary of the main drivers of the change in sales and marketing expenses is as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2025			2024			$ Change			% Change
	(In thousands, except percentage change values)
Personnel-related expenses	$	764		$	615		$	149			24	%
Depreciation and amortization		110			—			110			100	%
Stock-based compensation		38			42			(4	)		(10	)%
Facilities and insurance		27			32			(5	)		(16	)%
Professional fees, legal, and outside services		28			73			(45	)		(62	)%
Marketing and advertising		65			38			27			71	%
Other		174			46			128			278	%
Total	$	1,206		$	846		$	360			43	%
% of Net Revenue		56	%		481	%					(424	)%

We expect to continue to incur sales and marketing expenses during the foreseeable future as we complete product development and begin commercialization efforts for DetermaIO as a clinical test. Sales and marketing expenses will also increase if we successfully develop and begin commercializing GraftAssureCore, GraftAssureIQ, GraftAssureDx and DetermaCNI, or if we acquire and commercialize other diagnostic tests. Our commercialization efforts and expenses will also depend on the amount of capital that we are able to raise to finance commercialization of our tests. Our future expenditures on sales and marketing will also depend on the amount of revenue that those efforts are likely to generate. Because physicians are more likely to prescribe a test for their patients if the cost is covered by Medicare or health insurance, demand for our diagnostic and other tests and our expenditures on sales and marketing are likely to increase if our diagnostic or other tests qualify for reimbursement by Medicare or private health insurance companies.

General and Administrative Expenses

A summary of the main drivers of the change in general and administrative expenses is as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2025			2024			$ Change			% Change
	(In thousands, except percentage change values)
Personnel-related expenses and board fees	$	1,241		$	1,016		$	225			22	%
Depreciation and amortization		70			59			11			19	%
Stock-based compensation		240			167			73			44	%
Facilities and insurance		417			475			(58	)		(12	)%
Professional fees, legal, and outside services		1,045			858			187			22	%
Other		102			98			4			4	%
Total	$	3,115		$	2,673		$	442			17	%
% of Net Revenue		146	%		1519	%					(1373	)%

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration

We will pay contingent consideration if various payment milestones are triggered under the merger agreements through which we acquired Insight and Chronix. See Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration will be based on our reassessment of the key assumptions underlying the determination of this liability as changes in circumstances and conditions occur from the Insight and Chronix acquisition dates to the reporting periods being presented, with the subsequent changes in fair value recorded as part of our consolidated results from operations for such periods.

Other Income and Expenses

Other income and expenses are primarily comprised of interest income and expense. Interest income is earned from money market funds we hold for capital preservation. Interest expense was incurred from our financing lease obligations (see Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report) and insurance financing activity.

Income Taxes

We did not record any provision or benefit for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, as we had a full valuation allowance for the periods presented (see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report).

A valuation allowance is provided when it is more-likely-than-not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We established a full valuation allowance for all periods presented due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from our net operating loss carry-forwards and other deferred tax assets.

Inflation

Although historically not significant to our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, we may experience inflationary pressures, primarily in personnel costs, with certain laboratory supplies and from inventory costs related to certain raw materials. The extent of any future impacts from inflation on our business and our results of operations will be dependent upon how long elevated inflation levels persist and the extent to which the rate of inflation were to increase, if at all, neither of which we are able to predict. If elevated levels of inflation were to persist or if the rate of inflation were to accelerate, the purchasing power of our cash and cash equivalents may be diminished, our expenses could increase faster than anticipated and we may utilize our capital resources sooner than expected. Further, given the complexities of the reimbursement landscape in which we operate, our payers may be unwilling or unable to increase reimbursement rates to compensate for inflationary impacts. As such, the effects of inflation may adversely impact our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Refer to Note 1, “Business Risks,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information about the risks that may impact our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our foreseeable material cash requirements as of March 31, 2025, are recognized as liabilities or generally are otherwise described in Note 6, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. Cash requirements are generally derived from our operating and investing activities including expenditures for working capital, human capital, equipment purchases, business development, investments in intellectual property, and business combinations. Our office lease obligations (net of sublease payments) and financing lease obligations, and contingent consideration obligations are further described in Note 6 and Note 3, respectively, to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. Historically, we have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had unrecognized tax benefits totaling $1.1 million (see Note 2, “Income Taxes,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report).

Since formation, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of our common stock, preferred stock and common stock warrants (see Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report). We have incurred operating losses and negative operating cash flows since inception and had an accumulated deficit of $357.2 million as of March 31, 2025. At March 31, 2025, we had $31.0 million of cash and cash equivalents. Management anticipates that we may continue to incur operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the near future. Although it is difficult to predict our liquidity requirements, based on the going concern evaluation discussed in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report, management believes that it will have sufficient cash to meet its projected operating requirements for at least the next twelve months following the issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

On October 4, 2024, we consummated the October 2024 Offering. The gross proceeds from the October 2024 Offering were approximately $10.2 million. After deducting placement agent fees and expenses and offering expenses payable by the Company of $836,000, the resulting net proceeds were approximately $9.4 million. See Note 7, “Common Stock – October 2024 Offering,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information.

On February 10, 2025, we consummated the February 2025 Offering. The aggregate gross proceeds from the February 2025 Offering were approximately $29.1 million. After deducting offering expenses payable by the Company of $487,000, the resulting net proceeds were approximately $28.7 million. See Note 7, “Common Stock – February 2025 Offering,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information.

Our restricted cash balance in the amount of $1.7 million as of March 31, 2025 relates to a bank letter of credit required under our Irvine office lease. Commencing on July 1, 2025 and continuing on the first day of each calendar month thereafter, the letter of credit will be reduced by an amount equal to $60,714.29 on each such date, until the letter of credit is fully reduced, after which the letter of credit arrangement will terminate and Oncocyte will have no further obligation to maintain or deliver the letter of credit. See Note 6, “Office and Facilities Leases – Irvine Office Lease,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information.

We expect that our general operating expenses will be commensurate with the market opportunity as we continue to manage our available cash. Although we intend to market our diagnostic tests in the United States through our own sales force, we are also making marketing arrangements with distributors in other countries. We are also exploring a range of other commercialization options in order to enter overseas markets and to reduce our capital needs and expenditures, and the risks associated with the timelines and uncertainty for attaining the Medicare reimbursement approvals that will be essential for the successful commercialization of additional diagnostic tests. Those alternative arrangements could include marketing arrangements with other diagnostic companies through which we might receive a licensing fee and royalty on sales, or through which we might form a joint venture to market one or more tests and share in net revenues, in the United States or abroad.

On April 5, 2024, we entered into a global strategic partnership agreement with Bio-Rad to collaborate in the development and the commercialization of RUO and IVD kitted transplant products. On November 8, 2024, Oncocyte and Bio-Rad entered into a memorandum of understanding with respect to such agreement to establish additional activities to be performed by each party pursuant to such agreement. See Note 10, “Collaborative Arrangements,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information.

In addition to sales and marketing expenses, we will incur expenses from leasing and improving our offices and laboratory facilities in Nashville, Tennessee. In January 2024, we expanded our Nashville facility by adding one new office lease and renewing and extending our existing leases. During 2024, we added five financing leases for certain laboratory equipment to be used in our operations. See Note 6, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional leasing information. In March 2025, we also purchased four laboratory machines to be used in our operations.

We may need to meet significant cash payment or stock obligations to former Insight and Chronix shareholders in connection with our acquisition of those companies, as disclosed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. To meet the future cash payment obligations, we may have to utilize cash on hand that would otherwise be available to us for other business and operational purposes, which could cause us to delay or reduce activities in the development and commercialization of our tests.

We will need to continue to raise additional capital to finance our operations, including the development and commercialization of our diagnostic tests, and making payments that may become due under our obligations to former Chronix shareholders and former Insight shareholders, until such time as we are able to generate sufficient revenues to cover our operating expenses. Delays in our collaborative arrangement for the development and the commercialization of RUO and IVD kitted transplant products, or delays in obtaining regulatory approval to distribute our products for clinical use, or delays in the development of, or in obtaining reimbursement coverage from Medicare for DetermaIO and other future laboratory tests that we may develop or acquire, could prevent us from raising sufficient additional capital to finance the completion of development and commercial launch of those tests. Investors may be reluctant to provide us with capital until our tests are approved for reimbursement by Medicare or reimbursement by private healthcare insurers or healthcare providers, or until we begin generating significant amounts of revenue from performing those tests.

The unavailability or inadequacy of financing or revenues to meet future capital needs could force us to modify, curtail, delay, or suspend some or all aspects of our planned operations. Sales of additional equity securities could result in the dilution of the interests of our shareholders. We cannot assure that adequate long-term financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all.

See Note 1 and Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information about our liquidity discussion and equity offerings, respectively.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, our total research and development expenses were $2.9 million, our sales and marketing expenses were $1.2 million, and our general and administrative expenses were $3.1 million. We also incurred $813,000 in total cost of revenues, including $7,000 for amortization of intangible assets. Net loss for the period was $6.7 million, and our net cash used in operating activities amounted to $5.9 million. Our cash used in operating activities during 2025 did not include the following noncash items: $491,000 in depreciation and amortization expenses, $473,000 in stock-based compensation, $14,000 in other equity compensation expenses, and an $879,000 loss from change in fair value of contingent consideration. Net changes in operating assets and liabilities for the period were $1.0 million as an additional use of cash.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, our total research and development expenses were $2.3 million, our sales and marketing expenses were $846,000, and our general and administrative expenses were $2.7 million. We also incurred $131,000 in total cost of revenues, including $22,000 for amortization of intangible assets. Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $9.1 million, and our net cash used in operating activities amounted to $3.8 million. Our cash used in operating activities during 2024 did not include the following noncash items: $335,000 in depreciation and amortization expenses, $418,000 in stock-based compensation, $3.3 million loss from change in fair value of contingent consideration, $169,000 impairment loss on held for sale assets, and $46,000 in other equity compensation expenses. Net changes in operating assets and liabilities were $1.0 million as a positive source of cash.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in investing activities was $307,000 from cash paid for construction in progress and purchase of furniture and equipment.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in investing activities was $24,000 from cash paid for construction in progress and purchase of furniture and equipment.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was $28.6 million from $28.7 million of net cash proceeds from the February 2025 Offering, partially offset by repayments of financing lease obligations of $98,000.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no cash flows from financing activities.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. In preparing these financial statements, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On a regular basis, we evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates and make changes accordingly.

We believe that of the significant accounting policies discussed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report, the following accounting policies involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and require our most difficult, subjective or complex assumptions, judgments and estimates:

•

Going Concern Assessment;

•

Contingent Consideration Liabilities;

•

Intangible Assets;

•

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets;

•

Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Credit Losses;

•

Stock-Based Compensation; and

•

Income Taxes.

Going Concern Assessment

We assess going concern uncertainty in our consolidated financial statements to determine if we have sufficient cash and cash equivalents on hand and working capital, including available loans or lines of credit, if any, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date our consolidated financial statements are issued (the “look-forward period”). As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to us, we consider various scenarios, forecasts, projections and estimates, including stress tests, and we make certain key assumptions, including the timing and nature of projected cash expenditures or programs, and our ability to delay or curtail those expenditures or programs, if necessary, among other factors. Based on this assessment, as necessary or applicable, we make certain assumptions around implementing curtailments or delays in the nature and timing of programs and expenditures to the extent we deem probable those implementations can be achieved and we have the proper authority to execute them within the look-forward period. For additional information, refer to Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

Contingent Consideration Liabilities

Contingent consideration is estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the selling shareholders based on a percentage of certain revenues generated.

The fair value of milestone-based contingent consideration was determined using a scenario analysis valuation method which incorporates our assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achievement of the milestones, as defined in the merger agreements, credit risk, timing of the contingent consideration payments and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected payments, all of which require significant management judgment and assumptions. Since the contingent consideration payments are based on nonfinancial, binary events, management believes the use of the scenario analysis method is appropriate.

The fair value of royalty or revenue share-based contingent consideration was determined using a single scenario analysis method to value those payments. The single scenario method incorporates our assumptions with respect to specified future revenues generated over their respective useful lives, credit risk, and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected royalty payments, all of which require significant management judgment and assumptions. Since the royalty-based contingent consideration payments are based on future revenues and linear payouts, management believes the use of the single scenario method is appropriate.

The fair value of contingent consideration after the acquisition date is reassessed by us as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in our consolidated statements of operations. Changes in key assumptions can materially affect the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and, accordingly, the resulting gain or loss that we record in our consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded losses of $879,000 and $3.3 million, respectively, related to the fair value of contingent consideration. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, total contingent consideration liabilities were $38.8 million and $37.9 million, respectively. For additional information, refer to Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

Intangible Assets

We consider various factors and risks for potential impairment of IPR&D intangible assets, including the current legal and regulatory environment and the competitive landscape. Adverse clinical trial results, significant delays or inability to obtain LCD from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services for Medicare reimbursement for a diagnostic test, the inability to bring a diagnostic test to market and the introduction or advancement of competitors’ diagnostic tests could result in partial or full impairment of the related intangible assets. Consequently, the eventual realized value of the IPR&D project may vary from its fair value at the date of acquisition, and IPR&D impairment charges may occur in future periods. During the period between completion or abandonment, the IPR&D assets will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if we become aware of any events occurring or changes in circumstances that would indicate a reduction in the fair value of the IPR&D projects below their respective carrying amounts.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the IPR&D balances were reassessed using the MPEEM approach and the results of the valuations noted that the carrying values of certain oncology related IPR&D intangible assets were greater than the fair market values. We recorded a total impairment of $41.9 million as of December 31, 2024. For additional information, refer to Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We assess the impairment of long-lived assets, which consists primarily of long-lived intangible assets, right-of-use assets, and machinery and equipment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that such assets might be impaired and the carrying value may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we estimate the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset (or asset group) and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount, we recognize an impairment based on the fair value of such assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized an impairment loss on held for sale assets of $169,000 million. For additional information, refer to Note 2, “Assets Held for Sale,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Credit Losses

Pharma Services

Pharma Services are generally performed under individual SOW arrangements or license agreements (together with SOW the “Pharma Services Agreements”) with specific deliverables defined by the customer. Pharma Services are performed on a (i) time and materials basis or (ii) per test completed basis. Upon completion of the service to the customer in accordance with a Pharma Services Agreement, we have the right to bill the customer for the agreed upon price (either on a per test or per deliverable basis) and recognize Pharma Service revenue at that time. Insight identifies each sale of its Pharma Service offering as a single performance obligation. Chronix identifies the processing of test samples as a separate performance obligation (considered a series) within license agreements with customers. Completion of the service and satisfaction of the performance obligation is typically evidenced by access to the report or test made available to the customer or any other form or applicable manner of delivery defined in the Pharma Services Agreements. However, for certain SOWs under which work is performed pursuant to the customer’s highly customized specifications, we have the enforceable right to bill the customer for work completed, rather than upon completion of the SOW. For those SOWs, we recognize revenue over a period during which the work is performed using a formula that accounts for expended efforts, generally measured in labor hours, as a percentage of total estimated efforts for the completion of the SOW. As performance obligations are satisfied under the Pharma Services Agreements, any amounts earned as revenue and billed to the customer are included in accounts receivable.

We establish an allowance for credit losses based on the evaluation of the collectability of its Pharma Services accounts receivables after considering a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, significant events that may impair the customer’s ability to pay, such as a bankruptcy filing or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial condition, reasonable and supportable forecast that affect the collectability of the reported amount, and historical experience. We continuously monitor collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses and uncollectible accounts, if any, based upon its historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. Amounts determined to be uncollectible are written off against the credit loss reserve accounts. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had an allowance for credit losses of $36,000 and $16,000, respectively, related to Pharma Services.

Stock-Based Compensation

We recognize compensation expense related to share-based payment awards made to employees, board directors and other non-employees based on estimated fair values. We estimate the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the grant date and recognize the resulting fair value over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis. For stock-based awards that vest only upon the attainment of one or more performance goals, compensation cost is recognized if and when we determine that it is probable that the performance condition or conditions will be, or have been, achieved. For grants with market-based and time-based vesting conditions, the fair value is estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which includes the estimated period to achievement of the performance and market conditions, which are subject to the achievement of the market-based goals established by us and continued employment. We utilize the Black-Scholes option pricing model for determining the fair value of standard time-based stock options. Our determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. We estimate the expected volatility using our own stock price volatility for a period equal to the expected term of the options. The expected term of options granted is based on our own experience. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rates in effect during the corresponding period of grant. Key inputs and assumptions may change as we continue to develop our Company estimates, experience and key inputs including our expected term, and stock price volatility based on the trading history of our stock in the public market. Changes in these subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value of equity grants and the stock-based compensation that we record in our consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recognized total stock-based compensation of $473,000 and $418,000, respectively. For additional information, refer to Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes, which prescribes the use of the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax asset or liability account balances are calculated at the balance sheet date using current tax laws and rates in effect. The provision for income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate in accordance with ASC 740-270, Income Taxes, Interim Reporting. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Our judgments regarding future taxable income may change over time due to changes in market conditions, changes in tax laws, tax planning strategies or other factors. If our assumptions and consequently our estimates change in the future, the valuation allowance may be increased or decreased, which may have a material impact on our statements of operations.

The guidance also prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not sustainable upon examination by taxing authorities. We will recognize accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of the financial statement periods presented herein. We account for uncertain tax positions by assessing all material positions taken in any assessment or challenge by relevant taxing authorities. We are currently unaware of any tax issues under review. For additional information, refer to Note 2, “Income Taxes,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Under SEC rules and regulations, as a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

It is management’s responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal control over all financial reporting pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Following this review and evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer, and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period covered by this Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we may be involved in routine litigation incidental to the conduct of our business. We are not presently involved in any material pending litigation or proceedings. See Note 6, “Commitments and Contingencies – Litigation – General,” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth prospects are subject to various risks, including those described in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2025, which we encourage you to review. Other than as noted below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our products are subject to the FDA’s final rule ending enforcement discretion for LDTs and regulating such tests as medical devices. Implementing the requirements under the final rule could lead to delays in commercialization, or (if encountered after commercialization) requirements to halt the commercial provision of our tests until FDA marketing authorization is obtained.

In May 2024, the FDA published a final rule that phases out its enforcement discretion for LDTs, unless exempt, and amends the FDA’s regulations to make explicit that IVDs are medical devices under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (“FDCA”), including when the manufacturer of the diagnostic product is a laboratory. The American Clinical Laboratory Association and the Association of Molecular Pathology have filed lawsuits against the FDA to challenge its authority to regulate LDTs under this final rule. On March 31, 2025, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas vacated the FDA’s LDT final rule. It is unclear whether the court’s ruling will be appealed. The full impact of this litigation and the existing (and any future) challenges against currently remains to be seen.

If the final rule were to be reinstated, and the FDA were to ultimately regulate our tests as traditional IVDs, some or all of our tests may become subject to certain FDA medical device regulations, including, in some cases, pre-market review. If required, the regulatory marketing authorization process may involve, among other things, successfully completing additional clinical trials and submitting a pre-market clearance (510(k)) submission or filing a de novo or pre-market approval application with the FDA. If pre-market review and approval is required by the FDA for any of our tests, we may need to incur additional expenses or require additional time to seek it, or we may be unable to satisfy FDA standards, and our applicable tests may not be cleared or approved on a timely basis, if at all, and the labeling claims permitted by the FDA may not be consistent with our currently planned claims or adequate to support adoption of and reimbursement for our tests. Ongoing compliance with any applicable FDA medical device regulations to which we could become subject in connection with any of our tests that FDA may regulate as traditional IVDs would increase the cost of conducting our business, and subject us to inspection by, and potential enforcement of certain regulatory requirements, of the FDA, for example registration and listing, adherence to good manufacturing practices under the Quality System Regulation (“QSR”), and medical device reporting. Enforcement action for noncompliance with these requirements could range from warning or untitled letters to civil and criminal penalties, injunctions, product seizure or recall, import bans, restrictions on the conduct of our operations and total or partial suspension of production. Our laboratories are operating under CLIA and are not currently operating as registered device manufacturing facilities or in compliance with FDA’s QSR. Because these standards differ, we may face challenges establishing FDA-compliant quality systems or be unable to do so. If after commercialization under the LDT framework, our tests are allowed to remain on the market but there is uncertainty about the regulatory status of our tests, which is likely, given the current state of industry challenges to FDA’s final rule, including questions that may be raised if competitors object to our regulatory positioning as an LDT, we may encounter ongoing regulatory and legal challenges and related costs. Such challenges or related developments (for example if the labeling claims the FDA allows us to make are more limited than the claims we currently plan to make) may impact our commercialization efforts as orders or reimbursement may be less than anticipated. Any of these regulatory developments may cause our business to suffer.

If the FDA is successful in overcoming challenges to the final rule and ultimately regulates certain LDTs as intended under the final rule, our tests may be subject to certain additional regulatory requirements, the scope of which may vary from one test to another based on various considerations. Complying with the FDA’s requirements can be expensive, time-consuming, and subject us to significant or unanticipated delays. To the extent we are required to obtain premarket clearance or approval to perform or continue performing any of our tests, we cannot guarantee 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. Based on these and other considerations, the implementation of the FDA’s final rule on LDTs could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In addition, the final rule does not change the FDA’s policy of regulating IVDs as medical devices. As a result, most IVDs are currently subject to FDA requirements, including pre-market authorization. While we currently believe our products qualify as LDTs, the FDA may disagree. If the FDA determines that our products do not qualify as LDTs, we may be subject to FDA enforcement action, such as warning letters, seizure, injunction, criminal prosecution, monetary penalties, and others. In addition, if our products are classified as IVDs instead of LDTs, we may be required to obtain 510(k) clearance or a Premarket Approval (“PMA”) before re-marketing the products, which would result in a significant increase in costs, as well as a potential loss in revenue.

We will also need to obtain FDA and other regulatory approvals for any IVDs that we may develop, or for any currently marketed products the FDA determines are IVDs instead of LDTs, in order to market those IVD tests.

If we decide to develop IVDs, we will need to obtain regulatory clearance or approval to market each IVD test. Additionally, while we believe our tests qualify as LDTs, if the FDA determines otherwise, our products will likely need to be withdrawn from the market until receiving pre-market authorization, such as 510(k) clearance or a PMA, before re-entering the market. This means that:

•

The IVDs cannot be sold until the CMS or the FDA, and corresponding foreign regulatory authorities approve or authorize the IVDs for medical use;

•

We will have to conduct expensive and time-consuming clinical trials of new diagnostic tests. The full cost of conducting and completing clinical trials necessary to obtain FDA clearance or approval of IVD tests or for gaining reimbursement from health insurance companies, health maintenance organizations, Medicare, and other third-party payers cannot be presently determined but could exceed our financial resources;

•

Data obtained from preclinical and clinical studies is susceptible to varying interpretations that could delay, limit or prevent regulatory agency clearances or approvals. Delays or denials of the regulatory clearances or approvals may be encountered as a result of changes in regulatory agency policy, regulations, or laws;

•

A diagnostic test that is cleared or approved for marketing may be subject to restrictions on use; and

•

The FDA can withdraw approval of an FDA regulated product if problems arise.

In addition, the ability of the FDA to review and approve new products can be affected by a variety of factors, including government budget and funding levels, ability to hire and retain key personnel and accept the payment of user fees, and statutory, regulatory, and policy changes and other events that may otherwise affect the FDA’s ability to perform routine functions. Average review times at the agency have fluctuated in recent years as a result. In addition, government funding of other government agencies that fund research and development activities is subject to the political process, which is inherently fluid and unpredictable.

Further, the recent presidential election and congressional seat turnover may result in increased regulatory and economic uncertainty, including the spending priorities of the new U.S. presidential administration and Congress and what challenges budget reductions will present for us and our industry generally. For example, on January 20, 2025, President Trump announced an executive order establishing the “Department of Government Efficiency” to reform federal government processes and reduce expenditures. Changes in federal policy by the executive branch and regulatory agencies may occur over time through the new presidential administration’s and/or Congress’s policy and personnel changes, which could lead to changes involving our industry. However, the nature and timing of such potential changes remain highly uncertain. At this time, it is unclear whether and how any future changes or uncertainty surrounding future changes will adversely affect our business, but material adverse effects are possible.
