Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and exhibits thereto, contains estimates, predictions, opinions, projections and other statements that may be interpreted as "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements are contained principally in Part I, Item 2: "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and are also contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "strategy," "objective," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "predict," "project," "target," "potential," "will," "would," "could," "should," "continue," "contemplate," "might," "design" and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this Quarterly Report, we caution you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known by us and our expectations of the future, about which we cannot be certain, and are subject to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties.

As a result of these factors, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report will prove to be accurate. Further, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material.

While we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. Dollars — except for share data and per share data, unless otherwise stated)

Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

The principal activity of Quotient Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (the "Group") is the development, manufacture and sale of products for the global transfusion and clinical diagnostics market. Products manufactured by the Group are sold to hospitals, blood banking operations and other diagnostics companies worldwide. Through our subsidiary Alba Bioscience Limited ("Alba"), we manufacture, distribute and sell conventional reagent products used primarily to identify blood group antigens and antibodies in donor and patient blood and to perform daily quality assurance testing for third-party blood grouping instrument platforms. For several years we have invested heavily in an innovative blood testing technology that we call MosaiQ. Since our initial public offering, our focus has been on developing our proprietary MosaiQ technology for use in blood grouping and donor disease screening, which is commonly referred to as transfusion diagnostics. More recently, we have explored MosaiQ's potential for use beyond transfusion diagnostics in the larger clinical diagnostics market. Specifically, as discussed in our periodic reports filed with the SEC, we recently have expandedshifted our focus to include potential applications for MosaiQ in the autoimmune and allergy clinical diagnostics markets. Our Alba business is profitable. To date, our MosaiQ business has incurred substantial losses and we expect it will continue to incur losses unless and until it successfully commercializes one or more products.

Updates on Liquidity, Financial Condition and Company Strategy

Recent developments have called into question our ability to execute successfully on this business strategy and indeed raises substantial doubt on our ability to continue as a going concern.

While we have made substantial progress towardOn December 5, 2022 the commercializationCompany entered into an agreement (together with all exhibits, annexes and schedules thereto, the “Transaction Support Agreement”), with (i) holders of our MosaiQ-based transfusion diagnostics products,all of its outstanding senior secured notes (the "Senior Secured Notes") issued under that progress has been expensive and has required us to continuously raise capital. Since earlier this year we have pursued various potential methods of raising the funds that we require to complete the commercialization of our products. Adverse conditions in the U.S. and global capital markets made our pursuit of capital very difficult. To date, we have been unable to raise additional capital in the amounts we require. We are now close to running out of cash and close to being forced to cease operations and liquidate our MosaiQ business. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $41.4 million of cash, cash equivalents and investments, compared with approximately $63.2 million of cash, cash equivalents and investmentscertain Indenture, dated as of June 30, 2022. Our investments include approximately $16.9 million of cash invested in two funds that have suspended redemptions,October 14, 2016 (as amended, restated, amended and there can be no assurance that we will receive future distributions of cashrestated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from these funds.

Because of our liquidity constraints, we have not madetime to time, the interest payment on our Senior"Senior Secured Notes Indenture"), by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, and (ii) holders of more than 99% of its convertible notes (the "Convertible Notes") issued under that was due on October 17, 2022, incertain Indenture, dated as of May 26, 2021 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the amount of $4.0 million. Under the indenture governing our Senior Secured"Convertible Notes it is an "Event of Default" if our failure to make the interest payment continues for 30 days (in other words, if the payment has not been made by the close of business on November 16, 2022).

We have continued to hold discussionsIndenture" and together with various parties, including certain of our noteholders, about alternative means of obtaining access to the funding that we now urgently need. In these discussions, to date:

The noteholders have agreed to amend the Senior Secured Notes indenture to eliminate our obligation to make a cash interest payment otherwise due on October 17, 2022,Indenture, the "Indentures"), by and to require us instead to make that interest payment by issuing new debt securities toamong the noteholders. Because of this amendment, our failure to makeCompany, the October 17, 2022 interest payment when due will no longer be a default
Certain of theguarantors party thereto, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee (such holders of ourthe Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes, collectively, the "Consenting Noteholders"), whereby the Consenting Noteholders have committedagreed to provide bridge funding in the form of indebtedness in the amount of $3.7 million, when our available cash on hand declines below $7.0 million. The noteholders' obligations to fund the loan will be, subject to certain documentary conditions and deliverables

We continue to have constructive discussions with our noteholders regardingsupport a restructuring of ourthe Company’s balance sheet, which is intended to be effectuated pursuant to a set of transactions to be commenced by the Company (collectively, the "Transactions").

In connection with the Transactions, all of the Company’s outstanding indebtednessequity securities (including its ordinary shares, preferred shares, options and warrants) are expected to be extinguished and cancelled for either nominal or no consideration (in accordance with Jersey law). As a result of this, on December 12, 2022, the Company notified the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC of its intention to voluntarily withdraw its ordinary shares from listing on the Nasdaq Global Market. In order to implement the delisting, the Company filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 22, 2022. The delisting of the Company’s ordinary shares took effect no earlier than ten days after the date of that Form 25 filing. As a result of this voluntary delisting, the last full trading day of its ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Market was December 30, 2022. The Company does not intend to apply to list its ordinary shares on any other stock exchange or for quotation of its ordinary shares in any quotation medium. The Transactions are intended to reduce the Company’s debt obligations and inject liquidity into the Company’s business as necessary to effectuate its strategy shift.

Under the Transaction Support Agreement, the Company and the Consenting Noteholders have agreed to act in good faith to consummate the Transactions and have undertaken other customary commitments to one another. The Consenting Noteholders have also agreed to forbear from exercising, for so long as the Transaction Support Agreement is in full force and effect, any and all rights and remedies in contravention of the Transaction Support Agreement, which are or becomes available to them in respect of the Senior Secured Notes, the Convertible Notes or any other claims or interests in connection therewith.

The Transaction Support Agreement contains certain deadlines relating to the Transactions, which include deadlines (collectively, the "Milestones") related to implementing the Transactions either through (i) the filing of a petition for relief under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in order to effect a plan of reorganization (the "Plan") that implements a fully consensual restructuring (the "Consensual Transaction") or (ii) parallel creditor schemes of arrangements in England and Jersey (the "Fallback Scheme"), in each case as described in, and contemplated under, the Implementation Steps Memorandum attached to the Transaction Support Agreement as Exhibit B (the "Implementation Steps Memo"), as well as additional funding, although noteholders are not presently contractually committedan outside date of May 1, 2023 for the consummation of a Consensual Transaction or Fallback Scheme (such date, the "Outside Date"). The Transaction Support Agreement provides that Requisite Consenting Noteholders (as defined below) can direct the Company to provide or negotiate this funding and there is no assurance they will do so.

We understand thatimplement the noteholders' willingnessTransactions via alternative implementation steps, subject to continue to pursue the potential funding arrangements summarized above is premised on a change in our business strategy in which we would suspend our activities focused on the commercialization of our transfusion diagnostics products and would instead focus in the near term exclusively on development and commercialization ofFiduciary Out (as defined below).

- 8 -


MosaiQ products

If the board of directors of the Company reasonably determines, after considering the advice of outside counsel, that taking certain actions, or refraining to take certain actions, is reasonably required for such board of directors to comply with its fiduciary duties (including if such actions would require expenditures in excess of the Company’s available liquidity), the Transaction Support Agreement provides that such board of directors may elect not to take, or refrain to take, such actions (such election, the “Fiduciary Out”). The Company may terminate the Transaction Support Agreement upon, among other circumstances, uncured material breaches of the Transaction Support Agreement by a Consenting Noteholder or a determination by the board of directors of the Company that termination is required pursuant to the Fiduciary Out.

The Consenting Noteholders have termination rights that may, as a general matter, be exercised by (i) holders of the Senior Secured Notes holding at least a majority of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes and (ii) holders of the Convertible Notes holding at least a majority of the outstanding Convertible Notes, and, in the case of both subsection (i) and (ii), each of the Specified Noteholders (each as defined in the Transaction Support Agreement) (the holders in (i) and (ii) together, “Requisite Consenting Noteholders”), which termination rights include, among other circumstances, exercise of the Fiduciary Out by the Company, material breaches of the Transaction Support Agreement by the Company and the failure of the Company to meet any Milestone.

Under the terms of the Transaction Support Agreement:

The holders of the Senior Secured Notes have agreed to fund their commitment portion of $10 million of indebtedness (the "Bridge Notes") to the Company by no later than December 13, 2022.
Each noteholder under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture has agreed to exchange (i) such notes held by it (other than the Bridge Notes) for newly issued senior secured debt at a discount, and (ii) its Bridge Notes for newly issued senior secured debt at face value.
Certain holders of Senior Secured Notes have also agreed to purchase an aggregate of $13 million in new common equity at a 35% discount to a total equity value of $50 million (the "Agreed Equity Value"). In addition, each such Senior Secured Noteholder will receive its applicable share of an aggregate of $20 million in new common equity at the Agreed Equity Value.
The Consenting Holders who own Convertible Notes have agreed that their Convertible Notes shall be extinguished for no value, other than for the autoimmunepurchase right set forth immediately below.
Such holders of Convertible Notes have agreed to purchase an aggregate of $28 million in new common equity at a 35% discount to the Agreed Equity Value. In addition, each such Convertible Noteholder will receive its applicable share of an aggregate of $30 million in new common equity at the Agreed Equity Value.
The newly issued senior secured debt will be secured by a first lien on substantially the same collateral and allergy clinical diagnostics markets. This changeassets as were subject to liens under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture. It will (i) mature 5 years (or, with the consent of holders of the Senior Secured Notes holding at least a majority of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes and each of the Specified Noteholders, 7 years) from the closing date and (ii) bear interest at a rate of 12% payable in strategy would involve our implementationkind for the first three years (or, with certain consent, two years) following the closing date, and thereafter payable in cash. The new senior secured debt will also provide for a mandatory repurchase with 100% of significant cost reductions, including reductions in employee headcount.the net proceeds from certain sales, include covenants and events of default substantially similar to those existing under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, and be redeemable at a price of 103% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, for the first 2 years after issuance, and at par (plus accrued and unpaid interest) thereafter.
All existing equity of the Company will be extinguished and cancelled for no consideration.

There is no assurance that our negotiationsOn January 9, 2023, the Company entered into an amended and restated transaction support agreement (together with all exhibits, annexes and schedules thereto, the noteholders or"A&R TSA") with other parties will result in definitive agreements or in our receipt of funding. If we are unable to reach definitive agreements and consummate a funding in the next few weeks, we may be required to shut down and liquidate our MosaiQ business or, possibly, to seek protection under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws. In either case, we expect that a restructuring of our balance sheet, the procurement of additional funding, or a bankruptcy proceeding, would likely result in the extinguishment, through cancellation for no consideration or through dilution,holders of all of ourits (i) outstanding equity interests, including any outstanding options or warrants. ToSenior Secured Notes, by and among the extent we liquidate our MosaiQ business and/or commence an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, we expect we would seekCompany, the guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, and (ii) Convertible Notes issued under the Convertible Notes Indenture and together with the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the "Indentures"), by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee (such holders of the Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes, collectively, the "Consenting Noteholders").

The A&R TSA amends and restates in its entirety the transaction support agreement (the "Original TSA") entered into by the parties on December 5, 2022 and previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 7, 2022. The A&R TSA updates and modifies certain steps effectuating the transactions pursuant to continue operating our Alba business but we would have no realistic prospectwhich the Company will undergo a comprehensive restructuring of repaying all our existing liabilitiesits balance sheet (collectively, the "Transactions"), removes references to the potential creditor schemes of arrangement in full.England, enhances the diligence available for the benefit of the Consenting Noteholders, provides for automatic termination (rather than termination only after receipt of written notice) upon certain events, and reduces the threshold of approval

necessary to extend certain milestones set forth in the A&R TSA. The A&R TSA is otherwise substantially the same as the Original TSA.

On January 9, 2023, Quotient Holdings Newco, LP ("Newco"), Quotient Holdings Finance Company Limited ("Finance Co"), Quotient Holdings Merger Company Limited ("Merger Co") and the Company entered into an omnibus transaction agreement (together with all exhibits, annexes and schedules thereto, the "Omnibus Transaction Agreement") with holders of all of its Convertible Notes issued under the Convertible Notes Indenture (the "Convertible Noteholders").

Pursuant to the Omnibus Transaction Agreement, the Convertible Noteholders agree to the deemed issuance of paid-in-kind notes on account of the November 2022 interest payment due in respect of the Convertible Notes, the deemed transfer of an equal amount of the Convertible Notes (the "Convertible Notes Transferred Principal") to Newco in exchange for Newco granting certain equity purchase rights to each of the Convertible Noteholders, the deemed transfer of the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal by Newco to Finance Co in exchange for the issuance of 99,999 ordinary shares of Finance Co to Newco, the deemed transfer of half of the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal by Finance Co to Merger Co in exchange for the issuance of 99,999 ordinary shares of Merger Co to Finance Co, and the deemed transfer of all of the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal from Finance Co and Merger Co to the Company in exchange for the issuance of 800,000 preference shares of the Company to Finance Co and 800,000 preference shares of the Company to Merger Co. After the transfer of the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal to the Company, the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal will be cancelled and extinguished.

On January 10, 2023, Quotient filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 (the "Chapter 11 Case") of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Company will continue to operate its business as a "debtor in possession" under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the Bankruptcy Court. The Company has filed a series of first day motions with the Bankruptcy Court that seek authorization to continue to conduct its business without interruption. These motions are designed primarily to minimize the effect of bankruptcy on the Company’s operations. None of Quotient’s subsidiaries intend to file voluntary petitions for relief under the Bankruptcy Code, and each of those subsidiaries expects to continue to operate its respective business in the ordinary course unaffected by the Chapter 11 Case. The bankruptcy filing was contemplated under the A&R TSA (referenced below and signed during the three months ended December 31, 2022) as part of a comprehensive restructuring to de-lever the Company’s consolidated balance sheet by reducing debt by approximately $140 million and provide new cash for ongoing operations.

Going Concern

Our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the Company’s ability to successfully implement a plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11 Case and to implement the steps outlined in the A&R TSA. Furthermore, even if our debts are discharged through such plan, we will need to raise additional funds through debt or equity financing or through the sales of rights or other assets to fund the Company’s operations and its capital needs. As a result, there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. See "Updates on Liquidity, Financial Condition and Company Strategy" above for additional details.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and are unaudited. In accordance with those rules and regulations, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for complete financial statements.

In November 2022, Quotient implemented a reverse stock split of its shares of common stock in a ratio of 1-for-40. The number of shares, loss per share amounts, repurchase price per share amounts, and Common stock and Additional paid-in capital balances have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to give effect to the reverse stock split as if it occurred at the beginning of the first period presented. See Note 6 – Ordinary and Preference Shares for additional information.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The March 31, 2022 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements at and for the year ended March 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended. The results of operations for the three and sixnine month period ended September 30,December 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2023 and any future period.

The Company has incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations in each year since it commenced operations in 2007 and had an accumulated deficit of $809.8823.2 million as of September 30,December 31, 2022. At September 30,December 31, 2022, the Company had available cash,

- 10 -


cash equivalents, and investments of $41.427.5 million. Our investments include approximately $16.9$15.6 million of cash invested in two fundsa fund that havehas suspended redemptions.

As discussed above, under "Updates on Liquidity, Financial Condition and Company Strategy," there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

As of the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require the Company to further update estimates, judgments or revise the carrying value of any assets or liabilities. These estimates may change, as new events occur and additional information is obtained, and are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements as soon as they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates and any such differences may be material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash comprised $0 at September 30,December 31, 2022 and $8.0 million at March 31, 2022, held in a cash reserve account pursuant to the indenture governing the Company’s 12% Senior Secured Notes ("the Secured Notes") and $0.8 and $0.7 million held at September 30,December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively, held in a restricted account as security for the property rental obligations of the Company’s Swiss subsidiary.

Concentration of Credit Risks and Other Uncertainties

The Company evaluated the investments in the CSAM managed funds for impairment, in accordance with ASC 321-10-35, Investments – Equity Securities, and determined that its investment in twoone of the funds werewas impaired. We recorded $0.20.0 million and $1.2 million in impairment expenses in the three and sixnine month periods ended September 30,December 31, 2022 related to litigation and administrative costs expected to be incurred by Credit Suisse which Credit Suisse communicated would be deducted from investor recoveries.

The Company views the liquidation of the supply chain finance funds as a fluid situation with a significant amount of valuation uncertainty. The Company will closely monitor the situation and in the event that new information is released that provides valuation clarity, it will evaluate the accounting implications accordingly. The Company believes, and has advised Credit Suisse, that any losses on the supply chain funds should be borne by Credit Suisse. The Company will pursue all available options to recoup the full amount of its investment in the supply chain funds prior to liquidation.

The Company’s main financial institutions for banking operation held all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of September 30,December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022.

Revenue Recognition

In the three and sixnine month period ended September 30,December 31, 2022, revenue recognized from performance obligations related to prior periods was not material. Other than those described in Note 1 to the audited annual Consolidated Financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022, there were no other material revenues to be recognized in future periods related to remaining performance obligations at September 30,December 31, 2022.

The Company’s other significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the audited annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022.

There have been no significant changes to these policies that have had a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Recently Issued Pronouncements

There are no recently issued accounting standards that are expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Senior Secured Notes

- 10 -


On October 14, 2016, the Company completed the private placement of up to $120 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes and entered into an indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes with the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee and collateral agent. The Company issued $84 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes on October 14, 2016 and an additional $36 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes on June 29, 2018. On December 18, 2018, the Company also completed certain amendments to the indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes. The amendments included an increase to the aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes that can be issued under the indenture from $120 million to up to $145 million following the European CE Marking of the Company’s initial MosaiQ IH Microarray. On April 30, 2019, the Company was notified that it had received the European CE Marking of the initial MosaiQ IH Microarray and, on May 15, 2019, the Company issued the additional $25 million of Secured Notes.

As discussed above, because of our liquidity constraints, we have not made the interest payment on our Senior Secured Notes that was due on October 17, 2022, in the amount of $4.0 million. Under the indenture governing our Senior Secured Notes, it is an "Event of Default" if our failure to make the interest payment continues for 30 days (in other words, if the payment has not been made by the close of business on November 16, 2022). The noteholders have agreed to amend the Senior Secured Notes indenture to eliminate our obligation to make a cash interest payment otherwise due on October 17, 2022, and instead make a payment in kind through the issuance of new debt securities. Because of this amendment, our failure to make the October 17, 2022 interest payment when due will no longer be a default.Notes.

The obligations of the Company under the indenture and the Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a secured basis by the guarantors, which include all the Company’s subsidiaries, and the indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes contains customary events of default. The Company and its subsidiaries must also comply with certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a requirement to maintain six-months of interest in a cash reserve account maintained with the collateral agent. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, subject to certain conditions, or certain Asset Sales (each, as defined in the indenture), holders of the Senior Secured Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Senior Secured Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% or 100%, respectively, of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

Interest on the Senior Secured Notes accrues at a rate of 12% per annum and is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year commencing on April 15, 2017. On April 15, 2021, the Company made a $12.1 million principal payment on the Senior Senior Secured Notes. Additionally, principal payments were due on each April 15 and October 15 until April 15, 2024 pursuant to a fixed amortization schedule.

The Company paid $8.7 million of the total proceeds of the three issuances into the cash reserve account maintained with the collateral agent under the terms of the indenture. Following the April 15, 2021 repayment of the Senior Secured Notes the balance held in the cash reserve account was reduced to $8.0 million.

On October 13, 2021, the Company received consents from allthe Consenting Holders of the holders (the "Consenting Holders") of its Senior Secured Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of October 14, 2016 (as subsequently amended, the "Indenture"), by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee and collateral agent, to certain amendments to the indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes (the "Indenture Amendments") pursuant to the fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of October 13, 2021 (the "Fourth Supplemental Indenture").

The Indenture Amendments included an 18-month extension of the final maturity of the Senior Secured Notes to October 2025 and a revision of the Notes’ principal amortization schedule. The Indenture Amendments also changed the redemption prices for Notes redeemed pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture.

- 12 -


The Senior Secured Notes may be redeemed from and after October 14, 2021 at redemption prices beginning at 106% of par and declining over time to 100.0% for redemptions occurring from and after April 14, 2024.

The interest rate on the Senior Secured Notes and the financial and other covenants in the Indenture remained unchanged.

In consideration for the Consenting Holders’ consents to the Indenture Amendments, the Company agreed among other things to issue them (i) an aggregate of 23,319 of the Company’s ordinary shares, nil par value per share (the "Consent Shares") and (ii) 5-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 46,100 of the Company’s ordinary shares for $160 per share (the " 2021 Consent Warrants"). The Company filed a registration statement with the SEC covering resales of the Consent Shares and the shares issuable on exercise of the 2021 Consent Warrants. The fair value of Consent Shares not yet issued are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and the fair value of 2021 Consent Warrants is included in derivative liabilities within our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Changes in fair value are recognized within Other, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

On July 6, 2022, the Company received consents from the Consenting Holders of its Senior Secured Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of October 14, 2016, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee and collateral agent, to Indenture Amendments pursuant to the sixth supplemental indenture, dated as of July 6, 2022 (the "Sixth Supplemental Indenture").

- 11 -


The Sixth Supplemental Indenture includes a change to the amortization payment schedule of the Senior Secured Notes from requiring semi-annual payments ranging from $12.1 million to $24.2 million beginning in April 2023, to requiring quarterly payments of $2.5 million beginning on July 15, 2024 and ending on July 15, 2025, with the remaining principal balance due on October 15, 2025, which will reduce expected amortization payments by $93.0 million over the next 36 months prior to the payment of the remaining principal balance at maturity. It removes the requirement that we maintain a cash reserve account for the benefit of holders of the Senior Secured Notes, and adds a covenant that we maintain a minimum liquidity of at least $8.0 million, comprised of cash and certain other eligible investments, as of the end of each fiscal quarter. It provides that 40% of the net cash proceeds from a sale of all or a material portion of our Alba business, subject to certain exceptions, will be applied to repay Senior Secured Notes and the remaining 60% may be used by us to fund operating expenses, capital expenditures and other investments permitted by the Sixth Supplemental Indenture. We have also agreed that the holders of the Senior Secured Notes will be entitled to appoint an observer to our board of directors. In addition, the debt incurrence covenant in the indenture governing our Convertible Notes has been amended to reduce our ability to incur indebtedness under certain baskets by the amount of any repayment of the Senior Secured Notes as described above.

In consideration for the Consenting Holders’ consents to the Indenture Amendments, the Company issued them 5-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 212,364 of the Company’s ordinary shares for $30 per share (''2022 Consent Warrants"). The Company also filed a registration statement with the SEC covering resales of the shares issuable on exercise of the 2022 Consent Warrants.

On November 21, 2022, the Company received consents from the Consenting Holders of its Senior Secured Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of October 14, 2016, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee and collateral agent, to further amend the Indenture pursuant to the Eight Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 21, 2022 (the "Eight Supplemental Indenture"). The Eight Supplemental Indenture has been executed by the Company, the Trustee and the other parties thereto and is in effect.

The Eighth Supplemental Indenture eliminates the Company’s obligation under the Senior Secured Notes to make the interest payment otherwise due on October 15, 2022 in cash, and permit the Company instead to make such interest payment “in kind” by issuing new debt securities to the noteholders. The Eighth Supplemental Indenture allows the Company to issue and deliver further senior secured notes (the "Further SSNs") in an aggregate principal amount of $4.0 million to satisfy interest due on the Senior Secured Notes by way of payment in-kind. The Eighth Supplemental Indenture increases the permitted issuance amount under the Senior Secured Notes to $145.0 million plus the October 2022 Interest Amount (being $4.0 million).

The Company is currently insought the processamendments described above to allow the Company to preserve liquidity and avoid an event of renegotiating elementsdefault that would otherwise result from the Company’s failure to make a cash interest payment on or before October 17, 2022.

- 13 -


On December 15, 2022, the Company received consents from all of the Consenting Holders of its Senior Secured Notes. See Note 1Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of October 14, 2016, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee and collateral agent, to further amend the Indenture pursuant to the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 15, 2022 (the "Ninth Supplemental Indenture"). The Ninth Supplemental Indenture has been executed by the Company, the Trustee and the other parties thereto and is in effect.

Pursuant to the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, the Company issued and delivered Further SSNs in an aggregate principal amount of $10 million. The Further SSNs have the same terms as the SSNs, except that the Further SSNs have payment priority over other SSNs if any event of default occurs under the Indenture. So long as an event of default does not occur under the Indenture, the Further SSNs and the original SSNs are treated as a single class thereunder, including for additional information.purposes of directions provided to the Trustee, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase, and rank on a parity basis in right of payment and security. If an event of default occurs under the Indenture, the Further SSNs will constitute a separate class under the Indenture, and will have payment priority over the original Secured Notes.

Royalty liability

In connection with the three issuances of the Senior Secured Notes as well as the December 2018 amendment of the related indenture, the Company has entered into royalty rights agreements, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to pay 3.4% of the aggregate net sales of MosaiQ instruments and consumables made in the donor testing market in the United States and the European Union. The royalties will be payable beginning on the date that the Company or its affiliates makes its first sale of MosaiQ consumables in the donor testing market in the European Union or the United States and will end on the last day of the calendar quarter in which the eighth anniversary of the first sale date occurs. The royalty rights agreements are treated as sales of future revenues that meet the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 470 "Debt" to be treated as debt. The royalty rights agreements are accounted for separately as freestanding financial instruments. Consideration received for the debt and royalty rights was allocated to each component on a relative fair value basis. The difference between the relative fair value of the royalty rights agreements and the principle on the Senior Secured Notes is accounted for as debt discount and amortized through non-cash interest expense over the life of the Senior Secured Notes. Estimating the future cash outflows under the royalty rights agreements requires the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions about future sales of MosaiQ products. These estimates of the magnitude and timing of MosaiQ sales are subject to significant variability due to the current status of development of MosaiQ products, and thus are subject to significant uncertainty. The decrease in value of the royalty rights agreement from $40.1 million at March 31, 2022 to $24.9 million September 30,December 31, 2022, is due to the Company's decision to prioritize the clinical portfolio, which is not subject to the royalty rights agreement, through at least calendar year 2025 which resulted in a reversal of all non-cash interest expense recognized to date for the royalty liability. The royalty liability will be held at the initial carrying amount unless the liability meets criteria necessary for debt extinguishment under ASC 405-20, Extinguishments of Liabilities or until estimated future cash outflows exceed the current carrying value which would result in additional interest expense to be recognized.

Convertible Notes

On May 26, 2021 the Company issued $95.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes and on June 2, 2021, the Company issued an additional $10.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes in connection with the original $95.0 million (collectively the "Convertible Notes"). The Convertible Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 4.75%. The Convertible Notes will mature on May 26, 2026. Accrued interest of $1.90.6 million and $1.71.9 million is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30,December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 respectively.

- 12 -


At any time before the close of business on the second business day immediately before the maturity date, holders of the Convertible Notes can convert the Convertible Notes either in whole or in part into the Company’s ordinary shares at an initial conversion rate of 176.3668 ordinary shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.

The Convertible Notes are accounted for in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options ("ASC 470-20") and ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity ("ASC 815-40"). Based upon the Company’s analysis, it was determined the Convertible Notes contain embedded features that need to be separately accounted for as a derivative liability component. The proceeds received from the issuance of the convertible debt instruments were bifurcated and recorded as a liability within derivative liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The convertible loan derivative is measured at fair value and changes are recognized within the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements within Other, net.

The Company incurred approximately $3.7 million of debt issuance costs relating to the issuance of the Convertible Notes, which were recorded as a reduction to the Convertible Notes on the consolidated balance sheet, none of the issuance costs were attributable to the derivative component. The debt issuance costs and the debt discount are being amortized and recognized as additional interest expense over the expected life of the Convertible Notes using the effective interest rate method. We determined the expected life of the debt is equal to the five-year term of the Convertible Notes. The effective interest rate on the Convertible Notes is 12.9%. The total interest expense was $5.27.9 and $3.46.0 million with coupon interest of $2.53.7 and $1.73.0

million and the amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $2.74.2 and $1.73.0 million, for the sixnine month periods ended September 30,December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The total interest expense was $2.62.7 and $2.5 million with coupon interest of $1.21.3 and $1.3 million and the amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $1.4 and $1.2 million, for the three month periods ended September 30,December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively

On January 4, 2023, the Company received consents from the Consenting Holders of its Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of May 26, 2021 (as subsequently amended, the "Indenture"), by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee (the "Trustee"), to further amend the Indenture pursuant to the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, (the "Fourth Supplemental Indenture"). The Fourth Supplemental Indenture has been executed by the Company, the Trustee and the other parties thereto and is in effect.

Pursuant to the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the Company issued and delivered further Convertible Notes (the “Further Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $2.5 million issued hereunder as payment “in-kind” of (and in satisfaction of any obligation to make a cash payment in respect of) accrued interest on the Convertible Notes that is due and payable on the interest payment date occurring on November 15, 2022 pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes. The Further Convertible Notes have the same terms as the Convertible Notes and shall be treated as a single class, including for all purposes under the Indenture, including directions provided to the Trustee, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase, conversion rights, and otherwise, and shall rank on a parity basis in right of payment.

The Company sought the amendments described above to issue Further Convertible Notes to satisfy any obligation to make a cash payment in respect of accrued interest on the Convertible Notes that is due and payable on the interest payment date occurring on November 15, 2022 pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes. As of December 31, 2022 the interest payment due on November 15, 2022, has been reclassified as long-term debt as a result of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture.

As mentioned in Note 1, pursuant to the Omnibus Transaction Agreement, the Convertible Noteholders agree to the deemed issuance of paid-in-kind notes on account of the November 2022 interest payment due in respect of the Convertible Notes, the deemed transfer of an equal amount of the Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes Transferred Principal”) to Newco in exchange for Newco granting certain equity purchase rights to each of the Convertible Noteholders, the deemed transfer of the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal by Newco to Finance Co in exchange for the issuance of 99,999 ordinary shares of Finance Co to Newco, the deemed transfer of half of the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal by Finance Co to Merger Co in exchange for the issuance of 99,999 ordinary shares of Merger Co to Finance Co, and the deemed transfer of all of the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal from Finance Co and Merger Co to the Company in exchange for the issuance of 800,000 preference shares of the Company to Finance Co and 800,000 preference shares of the Company to Merger Co. After the transfer of the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal to the Company, the Convertible Notes Transferred Principal will be cancelled and extinguished.

The fair value of pension plan assets has been determined as the surrender value of the portfolio of active insured employees held within the AXA LLP Foundation Suisse Romande collective investment fund.
(2)
The fair value of the Convertible loan derivatives has been determined by utilizing a single factor lattice model using market-based observable inputs such as historical share prices for Quotient Limited, interest rates derived from the U.S. Dollar Swap interest rate curve, credit spread, and implied volatility obtained from third party market price quotations.
(3)
The fair value of the 2021 and 2022 Consent Warrants (collectively ''Consent Warrants''), has been determined by utilizing a Black-Scholes model using market-based observable inputs such as historical share prices for Quotient Limited, quotations for US treasury interest rates, and implied volatility obtained from third party market price quotations.

On March 12, 2021, the Company announced that two funds managed by CSAM in which the Company had invested an aggregate of approximately $110.35 million had suspended redemptions. The investments into these funds were made in accordance with the Company’s investment policy of making individual investments with a minimum of an A rating from a leading credit-rating agency. Each fund holds short-term credit obligations of various obligors. According to a press release issued by CSAM, redemptions in the funds were suspended because "certain part of the Subfunds’ assets is currently subject to considerable uncertainties with respect to their accurate valuation." CSAM subsequently began a liquidation of the funds. Pursuant to the liquidation, the Company has already received cash distributions of approximately $89.091.3 million. Credit Suisse has advised that the credit assets held by the funds are covered by insurance that potentially will be available to cover losses the funds would incur if any of the obligors on the funds’ credit assets were to default.

On April 22, 2021, Credit Suisse published its FY 2021 Q1 press release with commentary related to the Credit Suisse Supply Chain Finance Investment Grade Fund and the Credit Suisse (Lux) Supply Chain Finance Fund. Notably, Credit Suisse indicated that investors in the funds should assume losses will be incurred. Additionally on April 4, 2022, Credit Suisse indicated in its Annual General Meeting that they expected that litigation will be necessary to reinforce claims against individual debtors and insurance companies and recovery is not expected to occur over the next 12 months for one of our funds. Therefore, we determined that one of our two funds should be classified as long-term as of March 31, 2022 and we have maintained thatthe long-term classification in September 30,of one of our funds as of December 31, 2022. On November 11, 2022, we received a $2.6 million cash payment from Credit Suisse related to the final liquidation of the Credit Suisse Supply Chain Finance Investment Grade Fund which was previously classified as a short-term investment in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In the year-ended March 31, 2021, Credit Suisse’s decision to liquidate funds in which the Company held investments served as a trigger to evaluate the investments for impairment and each quarter the Company evaluates information from Credit Suisse to determine whether there are further triggering events. Through March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $3.3 million in impairments associated with these funds. We recorded $0.2 million and $1.2 million in impairment expenses in the three and six monthnine period ended September 30,December 31, 2022 based on information shared by Credit Suisse to CSAM investors which included updated estimates of litigation provisions and administrative expenses incurred or to be incurred by Credit Suisse which Credit Suisse communicated would

- 14 -


be deducted from investor recoveries. No impairment expense was recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 2022 or in the three or sixnine month periods ended September 30,December 31, 2021.

The Company views the liquidation of the supply chain finance funds as a fluid situation with a significant amount of valuation uncertainty. The Company will closely monitor the situation and in the event that new information is released that provides valuation clarity, it will evaluate the accounting implications accordingly. The Company believes, and has advised Credit Suisse, that any losses on the supply chain funds, including recovery costs, should be borne by Credit Suisse. The Company will pursue all available options to recoup the full amount of its investment in the supply chain funds prior to liquidation.

The total unrealized gains on the short-term investments were $249213 and $275 in the sixnine month periods ended September 30,December 31, 2022 and September 30,December 31, 2021, respectively. The amount of these unrealized gains reclassified to earnings were $2624 and $193 in the sixnine month periods ended September 30,December 31, 2022 and September 30,December 31, 2021, respectively.

On June 28, 2022, the Company issued 811,458 ordinary shares in a public offering of shares at $12.00 per share.

On May 20, 2022, the Company received notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) that, because the closing bid price for the Company’s ordinary shares has been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer complied with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market and was granted an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the minimum bid requirement or until November 16, 2022. The Company effected a 1-for-40 reverse stock split on November 2, 2022 in an effort to meet this minimum average share price requirement. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split. All outstanding share amounts have been restated to reflect the impact of the reverse stock split.

On December 12, 2022, the Company notified the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC of its intention to voluntarily withdraw its ordinary shares from listing on the Nasdaq Global Market. In order to implement the delisting, the Company filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 22, 2022. The delisting of the Company’s ordinary shares took effect no earlier than ten days after the date of that Form 25 filing. As a result of this voluntary delisting, the last full trading day of its ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Market was December 30, 2022. The Company does not intend to apply to list its ordinary shares on any other stock exchange or for quotation of its ordinary shares in any quotation medium.

At September 30, 2022, 59,440 RSUs were outstanding subject to time-based vesting and the weighted average remaining vesting period was 15 months. In addition, 460 RSUs were outstanding subject to vesting based on the achievement of various business milestones related mainly to the development, approval and marketing of MosaiQ. 53,437 RSUs were outstanding and subject to vesting based on the achievement of financial objectives in the year 2024 and 2025 assuming a 100% payout of applicable targets. The decrease in expense recognized in the quarter and nine-month period ended September 30,December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year is due to an assessment that certain performance based RSU's previously deemed probable of vesting were no longer probable of vesting due to the shift in business strategy described in Note 1. If the maximum payout ratio of these awards were to be achieved of 150%, 80,156 shares would be awarded.

Note 10. Net Loss Per Share

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260 "Earnings Per Share", basic earnings available to ordinary shareholders per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings available to ordinary shareholders per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period, plus potential ordinary shares considered outstanding during the period, as long as the inclusion of such shares is not anti-dilutive. Potential ordinary shares consist of the incremental ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of share options (using the treasury shares method), the warrants to acquire ordinary shares, the ordinary shares issuable upon vesting of the RSUs, and the ordinary shares issuable on conversion of Convertible Notes.

As disclosed in Note 6 – Ordinary and Preference Shares, the Company implemented a reverse stock split in a ratio of 1-for-40 effective on November 2, 2022. The below computations of loss per share reflect the number of common stock shares after consideration for the reverse stock split. All common share and loss per share amounts have been adjusted retrospectively to give effect to the reverse stock split as if it occurred at the beginning of the first period presented.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per ordinary share:

The 855,208 pre-funded warrants issued duringDuring the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company issued 855,208 pre-funded warrants. Those not-yet-converted to ordinary shares are assumed to be exercised for the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share as the exercise price of $0.04 was deemed to be a non-substantive exercise price compared to the pre-funded cost of $11.96 per share and the fair value of our ordinary shares. These are treated as permanent equity for both basic and

The following table sets out the numbers of ordinary shares excluded from the above computation of earnings per share at September 30,December 31, 2022 and September 30,December 31, 2021 as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

Note 11. Restructuring Ordinary shares issuable

As indicated in the Company’s quarterly report on conversion of Senior Convertible Notes at $226.80 per share, representing 462,962 shares, are anti-dilutiveForm 10-Q for the six monthsquarter ended September 30, 2021.2022, filed November 14, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a change in strategy in which the Company would suspend its activities focused on the commercialization of its transfusion diagnostics products and would instead focus in the near term on development and commercialization of MosaiQ products for the autoimmune and allergy clinical diagnostics markets. As a result of this shift in strategy, the Company implemented a material reduction in its workforce by approximately 100 positions. The Company expects the Restructuring Plan to be substantially completed by the first quarter of calendar year 2023.

As a result of the Restructuring Plan, the Company incurred the following charges:

Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022, particularly in "Risk Factors."

Overview

We were incorporated in Jersey, Channel Islands on January 18, 2012. On February 16, 2012, we acquired the entire issued share capital of Alba Bioscience Limited (or Alba), Quotient Biodiagnostics, Inc. (or QBDI) and QBD (QSIP) Limited (or QSIP) from Quotient Biodiagnostics Group Limited (or QBDG), our predecessor.

Updates on Liquidity, Financial Condition and Company Strategy

While we have made substantial progress towardOn January 10, 2023, Quotient filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 (the “Chapter 11 Case”) of the commercialization of our MosaiQ-based transfusion diagnostics products, that progress has been expensive and has required us to continuously raise capital. Since earlier this year we have pursued various potential methods of raising the funds that we require to complete the commercialization of our products. Adverse conditionsUnited States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the U.S. and global capital markets made our pursuitUnited States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of capital very difficult. To date, we have been unableTexas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Company will continue to raise additional capitaloperate its business as a “debtor in possession” under the amounts we require. We are now close to running out of cash and close to being forced to cease operations and liquidate our MosaiQ business. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $41.4 million of cash, cash equivalents and investments, compared with approximately $63.2 million of cash, cash equivalents and investments as of June 30, 2022. Our investments include approximately $16.9 million of cash invested in two funds that have suspended redemptions, and there can be no assurance that we will receive future distributions of cash from these funds.

Because of our liquidity constraints, we have not made the interest payment on our Senior Secured Notes that was due on October 17, 2022, in the amount of $4.0 million. Under the indenture governing our Senior Secured Notes, it is an "Event of Default" if our failure to make the interest payment continues for 30 days (in other words, if the payment has not been made by the close of business on November 16, 2022).

We have continued to hold discussions with various parties, including certain of our noteholders, about alternative means of obtaining access to the funding that we now urgently need. In these discussions, to date:

The noteholders have agreed to amend the Senior Secured Notes indenture to eliminate our obligation to make a cash interest payment otherwise due on October 17, 2022, and to require us instead to make that interest payment by issuing new debt securities to the noteholders. Because of this amendment, our failure to make the October 17, 2022 interest payment when due will no longer be a default
Certainjurisdiction of the holdersBankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of our Senior Secured Notes have committed to provide bridge funding in the formBankruptcy Code and the orders of indebtedness in the amountBankruptcy Court. The Company has filed a series of $3.7 million, when our available cash on hand declines below $7.0 million. The noteholders' obligations to fundfirst day motions with the loan will be, subject to certain documentary conditions and deliverables

We continue to have constructive discussions with our noteholders regarding a restructuring of our outstanding indebtedness as well as additional funding, although noteholders are not presently contractually committed to provide or negotiate this funding and there is no assurance they will do so.

We understandBankruptcy Court that the noteholders' willingnessseek authorization to continue to pursueconduct its business without interruption. These motions are designed primarily to minimize the potential funding arrangements summarized above is premised on a change in our business strategy in which we would suspend our activities focusedeffect of bankruptcy on the commercializationCompany’s operations. None of our transfusion diagnostics productsQuotient’s subsidiaries intend to file voluntary petitions for relief under the Bankruptcy Code, and would instead focuseach of those subsidiaries expects to continue to operate its respective business in the near term exclusively on developmentordinary course unaffected by the Chapter 11 Case. The bankruptcy filing was contemplated under the A&R TSA as part of a comprehensive restructuring to de-lever the Company’s consolidated balance sheet by reducing debt by approximately $140 million and commercialization of MosaiQ productsprovide new cash for the autoimmune and allergy clinical diagnostics markets. This change in strategy would involve our implementation of significant cost reductions, including reductions in employee headcount.ongoing operations. See Note 1 for additional information.

- 19 -


There is no assurance that our negotiations with the noteholders or with other parties will result in definitive agreements or in our receipt of funding. If we are unable to reach definitive agreements and consummate a funding in the next few weeks, we may be required to shut down and liquidate our MosaiQ business or, possibly, to seek protection under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws. In either case, we expect that a restructuring of our balance sheet, the procurement of additional funding, or a bankruptcy proceeding, would likely result in the extinguishment, through cancellation for no consideration or through dilution, of all of our outstanding equity interests, including any outstanding options or warrants. To the extent we liquidate our MosaiQ business and/or commence an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, we expect we would seek to continue operating our Alba business but we would have no realistic prospect of repaying all our existing liabilities in full.

In an effort to sustain our business under current market conditions as we seek additional funding, we will shiftshifted our business strategy to focus our MosaiQ innovation pipeline on clinical diagnostics with testing solutions for allergy and autoimmune while pausing the development and commercialization of our MosaiQ testing solutions in immunohematology and infectious disease immunoassay screening. As we invest and reallocate resources, we will be reducingreduced the number of employees, partners and costs to match the clinical diagnostics priority and seek to achieve a sustainable business, subject to obtaining additional funding. business.

The discussion below of our historical financial condition, results of operations and liquidity position do not reflect any effects or costs of the shift in our business strategy or the potential funding arrangements that we are currently discussing with our noteholders; therefore, these historical results are not indicative of our expected results in future periods.

Business Overview

We currently operate as one business segment with 450432 employees in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Dubai and the United States, as of September 30,December 31, 2022. Our principal markets are the United States, Europe and Japan. Based on the location of the customer, revenues outside the United States accounted for 45%44% of total revenue during the sixnine month period ended September 30,December 31, 2022 and 43%46% during the threenine month period ended September 30,December 31, 2021.

We have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations in each year since we commenced operations in 2007. As of September 30,December 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $809.8$823.2 million. We expect our operating losses to continue for at least the remainder of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023 as we continue our investment in the commercialization of MosaiQ. For the sixnine month period ended September 30,December 31, 2022, our total revenue was $17.7$27.6 million and our net loss was $84.8$98.1 million.

From our incorporation in 2012 to March 31, 2022, we have raised $160.0 million of gross proceeds through the private placement of our ordinary and preference shares and warrants, $433.0 million of gross proceeds from public offerings of our ordinary shares and issuances of ordinary shares upon exercise of warrants, $145.0 million of gross proceeds from the issuance of 12% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (which we refer to as the Secured Notes) and $105 million of gross proceeds from the issuance of 4.75% Convertible Notes due 2026 (which we refer to as the Convertible Notes).Notes. In addition, on March 23, 2018, we raised $20.9 million from the sale and leaseback of our conventional reagents manufacturing facility near Edinburgh, Scotland, which we refer to as the Allan Robb Campus, or ARC, facility.

- 21 -


During the quarternine month period ended June 30,December 31, 2022, we raised gross proceeds of approximately $20.0 million from a public offering of 811,458 of our ordinary shares and, in lieu of ordinary shares to certain investors, pre-funded warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 855,208 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.04 per share after accounting for the reverse stock split.

On December 15, 2022, we raised gross proceeds of $10.0 million pursuant to the Ninth Supplemental Indenture.

As of September 30,December 31, 2022, we had available cash, cash equivalents, and investments of $41.4$27.5 million and $0.8 million of restricted cash held as part of the arrangements relating to our Secured Notes and the lease of our property in Eysins, Switzerland.

Regulatory and Commercial Milestones

You should read the following regulatory and commercial milestones update in conjunction with the discussion included under the sections "Item 1. Business" and "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on June 28, 2022.

Clinical diagnostics microarrays

We currently expect commercial launch of the clinical diagnostics autoimmune microarray to occur before the end of calendar year 2023.
We currently expect commercial launch of the clinical diagnostics allergy microarray to occur before the end of calendar year 2024.

Revenue

We generate product sales revenue from the sale of conventional reagent products directly to hospitals, donor collection agencies and independent testing laboratories in the United States, the United Kingdom and to distributors in Europe and the rest of the world, and indirectly through sales to our original equipment manufacturer (or OEM) customers. We recognize revenues in the form of product

- 20 -


sales when the goods are shipped. We also provide product development services to our OEM customers. We recognize revenue from these contractual relationships in the form of product development fees, which are included in other revenues.

Our revenue is denominated in multiple currencies. Sales in the United States and to certain of our OEM customers are denominated in U.S. Dollars. Sales in Europe and the rest of the world are denominated primarily in U.S. Dollars, Pounds Sterling or Euros. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, which are primarily in the United Kingdom, Switzerland and the United States. We operate globally and therefore changes in foreign currency exchange rates may become material to us in the future due to factors beyond our control.

Cost of revenue and operating expenses

Cost of revenue consists of direct labor expenses, including employee benefits, overhead expenses, material costs and freight costs, along with the depreciation of manufacturing equipment and leasehold improvements. Our gross margin represents total revenue less the cost of revenue, gross margin represents gross margin expressed as a percentage of total revenue, and gross margin on product sales represents gross margin excluding other revenues as a percentage of revenues excluding other revenues. We expect our overall cost of revenue to increase in absolute U.S. Dollars as we continue to increase our product sales volumes. However, we also believe that we can achieve efficiencies in our manufacturing operations, primarily through increasing production volumes.

Our sales and marketing expenses include costs associated with our sales organization for conventional reagent products, including our direct sales force, as well as our marketing and customer service personnel and the costs of the MosaiQ commercial team. These expenses consist principally of salaries, commissions, bonuses and employee benefits, as well as travel and other costs related to our sales and product marketing activities. We expense all sales and marketing costs as incurred. We expect sales and marketing expense to increase in absolute U.S. Dollars, primarily as a result of commissions on increased product sales in the United States and as we grow the MosaiQ commercial team.

- 22 -


Our research and development expenses include costs associated with performing research, development, field trials and our regulatory activities, as well as production costs incurred in advance of the commercial launch of MosaiQ. Research and development expenses include research personnel-related expenses, fees for contractual and consulting services, travel costs, laboratory supplies and depreciation of laboratory equipment.

We expense all research and development costs as incurred, net of government grants received and tax credits. Our UK subsidiary claims certain tax credits on its research and development expenditures and these are included as an offset to our research and development expenses. Our research and development efforts are focused on developing new products and technologies for the global transfusion diagnostics market. We expect our costs associated with field trials and regulatory approvals will increase at the same time as our development costs with MosaiQ decrease. As we move to commercialization of MosaiQ in the donor testing market, we expect our overall research and development expense to decrease.

Our general and administrative expenses include costs for our executive, accounting and finance, legal, corporate development, information technology and human resources functions. We expense all general and administrative expenses as incurred. These expenses consist principally of salaries, bonuses and employee benefits for the personnel performing these functions, including travel costs. These expenses also include share-based compensation, professional service fees (such as audit, tax and legal fees), costs related to our Board of Directors, and general corporate overhead costs, which include depreciation and amortization. We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase as our business develops and also due to the costs of operating as a public company, such as additional legal, accounting and corporate governance expenses, including expenses related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, directors’ and officers’ insurance premiums and investor relations expenses.

Net interest expense consists primarily of interest charges on our Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes and the amortization debt discount and debt issuance costs, (which includes amortization of the one-time consent payment of $3.9 million paid to holders of our Secured Notes in December 2018), as well as accrued dividends on the 7% cumulative redeemable preference shares issued in January 2015. We amortize debt issuance costs over the life of the instrument and report them as interest expense in our statements of operations. Net interest also includes the expected costs of the royalty rights agreements we entered into in October 2016, June 2018, December 2018 and May 2019 with the purchasers and consenting holders, as applicable, of our Senior Secured Notes. See Note 3, "Debt" and Note 6, "Ordinary and Preference Shares" to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Other income (expense), net consists of the change in fair value of our convertible debt derivative, warrant liabilities and the impact of exchange rate fluctuations. See Note 3, "Debt" and Note 5, "Fair value measurement" to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for additional information. Exchange rate fluctuations include realized exchange fluctuations resulting from the settlement of transactions in currencies other than the functional currencies of our businesses. Monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are measured at the period-end closing rate with resulting unrealized exchange fluctuations. The functional currencies of our legal entities are Pounds Sterling, Swiss Francs, Euros, and U.S. Dollars depending on the entity.

Provision for income taxes in the three and sixnine month periods ended September 30,December 31, 2022 and 2021, reflected the taxes chargeable on the taxable income of our subsidiaries.

Quarterly Results of Operations

Our quarterly product sales can fluctuate depending upon the shipment cycles for our red blood cell-based products, which account for approximately two-thirds of our current product sales. For these products, we typically experience 13 shipping cycles per year. This equates to three shipments of each product per quarter, except for one quarter per year when four shipments occur. Not all products ship on the same day so quarters where four shipments occur do not always align. In fiscal 2022 we experienced additional shipments in the third and fourth quarters. In fiscal 2023, the greatest impact of extra product shipments is expected to occur in our third quarter. The timing of shipment of bulk antisera products to our OEM customers may also move revenues from quarter to quarter. We also experience some seasonality in demand around holiday periods in both Europe and the United States. As a result of these factors, we expect to continue to see seasonality and quarter-to-quarter variations in our product sales.

The timing of product development fees included in other revenues is mostly dependent upon the achievement of pre-negotiated project milestones.

Since our commencement of operations in 2007, we have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations.

In addition, on March 23, 2018, we raised $20.9 million from the sale and leaseback of the Allan Robb Campus.

During the sixnine month period ended September 30,December 31, 2022, we raised gross proceeds of approximately $20.0 million from a public offering of 811,458 of our ordinary shares and, in lieu of ordinary shares to certain investors, pre-funded warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 855,208 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.04 per share.

It eliminates the requirement that we maintain a cash reserve account for the benefit of holders of the Secured Notes, and adds a covenant that we maintain a minimum liquidity of at least $8.0 million, comprised of cash and certain other eligible investments, as of the end of each fiscal quarter.Ninth Supplemental Indenture.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

We have prepared our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and related disclosures at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could therefore differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For a detailed discussion of our critical accounting policies, see Note 1, "Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022. For a detailed description of our significant judgements and estimates, see "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We did not adopt any other new accounting pronouncements during the sixnine month period ended September 30,December 31, 2022 that had a significant effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are not currently party to any pending legal or governmental proceedings that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition. However, we may be subject to various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our cash resources have been depletedWe are subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with proceedings under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

On the January 10, 2023, the Company filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. On January 9, 2023, the Company entered into the A&R TSA with holders of all of its (i) Senior Secured Notes issued under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, and (ii) Convertible Notes issued under Convertible Notes Indenture, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee. On the January 10, 2023, the Company filed the Plan and the related disclosure statement, in accordance with the terms of A&R TSA.

For the duration of our bankruptcy proceedings, our operations and our ability to develop and execute our business plan, as well as our continuation as a going concern thereafter, are subject to risks and uncertainties associated with bankruptcy and the implementation of the restructuring transactions, including the following:

our ability to consummate the Plan and the restructuring transactions contemplated under the A&R TSA;
our ability to maintain our relationships with our suppliers, service providers, employees and other third parties;
our ability to retain key employees; and
the actions and decisions of our creditors and other third parties who have interests in our bankruptcy proceedings.

Delays in our bankruptcy proceedings and implementing our restructuring transactions increase our costs associated with the bankruptcy process along with the risks of our being unable to reorganize our business and emerge from bankruptcy.

These risks and uncertainties could affect our business and operations in various ways. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, we need the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court for transactions outside the ordinary course of business, which may limit our ability to respond timely to certain events or take advantage of certain opportunities. We cannot accurately predict or quantify the ultimate impact that events that occur during our bankruptcy proceedings will have on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Even if the Plan is consummated, we will continue to face a number of risks, including our ability to reduce expenses, implement any strategic initiatives and generally maintain favorable relationships with and secure the confidence of our counterparties. Accordingly, while we believe that the Plan places us in the best position for success as a going concern, we cannot provide assurance that the proposed financial restructuring will allow us to continue as a going concern is in doubt.concern.

AsThe Plan may not become effective.

The Plan may not become effective because it is subject to the satisfaction of September 30, 2022,certain conditions precedent (some of which are beyond our control). There can be no assurance that such conditions will be satisfied or waived and, therefore, that the Plan will become effective and that we had approximately $41.4 millionwill emerge from our bankruptcy proceedings as contemplated by the Plan. If the effective date of the Plan is delayed, we may not have sufficient cash available to operate our business. There is no assurance of the terms on which such financing may be available or if such financing will be available at all. If the transactions contemplated by the Plan are not completed, it may become necessary to amend the Plan, with accompanying expenses and material delays.

We have substantial liquidity needs and may not have sufficient liquidity for the time necessary to consummate the Plan.

We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, significant costs in connection with our bankruptcy proceedings. While we believe that we will have sufficient liquidity, including cash equivalentson hand and investments, which amount includes approximately $16.9 million offunds generated from ongoing operations, to fund anticipated cash invested in two funds that have suspended redemptions, andrequirements through our bankruptcy proceedings, there can be no assurance that our current liquidity will be sufficient to allow us to satisfy our obligations related to our bankruptcy proceedings and those necessary for consummation of the Plan.

Even if the Plan is consummated, we will receive any future distributions of cash from these funds. Recent developments have called into questionmay not be able to achieve our ability to execute successfully on our business strategystated goals and indeed on our ability to continue as a going concern. Adverse conditions in

Even if the U.S. and global capital markets madePlan is consummated, we will continue to face a number of risks, including decreased market demand or increasing expenses. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that the Plan or any other chapter 11 plan of reorganization will achieve our pursuit of the additional capital thatstated goals. Furthermore, even if our debts are discharged through such plan, we require for our business strategy very difficult. We have been unablemay need to raise additional capital infunds through public or private debt or equity financing to fund the amounts we require. We are now close to running out of cash and being forced to ceaseCompany’s operations and liquidate our MosaiQ business.

We have continued to hold discussions with various parties about alternative means of obtainingits capital needs. Our access to additional financing is, and for the funding that we now urgently need. There is no assurance that these negotiations will result in definitive agreements or in our receipt of funding, and any such agreements will be subject to a number of conditions, some of whichforeseeable future will likely be outside of our control. If we are unable to reach definitive agreements and consummate a funding in the next few weeks, we may be required to shut down and liquidate our MosaiQ business or, possibly, to seek protection under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws.

We expect that we will either complete a debt restructuring or commence an insolvency proceeding and in either case, our outstanding ordinary and preferred shares and ordinary share equivalents likely will be cancelled for no consideration or effectively extinguished through dilution

While the details of the potential funding arrangements being discussed with noteholders have yetcontinue to be, finalized,extremely limited, if it is available at present we expect that when these arrangements are implemented, all of our outstanding ordinary and preferred shares and all outstanding options and warrants to acquire ordinary shares likely will be cancelled for no consideration or effectively extinguished through dilution.

Weall. Therefore, adequate funds may not be able to maintain our listingavailable when needed, or in sufficient amounts or available on the Nasdaq Global Market, which could have a material adverse effect on us and our shareholders.acceptable terms, if at all.

On May 24, 2022, we announced that that we received written notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that on May 20, 2022, the average closing price of our ordinary shares over the prior 30 consecutive trading days had fallen below $1.00 per share, which is the minimum average closing price required to maintain listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Bid Price Requirement"). To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our ordinary shares must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the initial compliance period which ends on November 16, 2022. On November 2, 2022, we implemented a reverse split of our ordinary shares in an effort to increase the price of our shares above $1.00 and satisfy the Bid Price Requirement.

On August 9, 2022, we received a notice from Nasdaq notifying us that we also are not in compliance with the market value of listed securities requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market (the “MVLS Requirement”). Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) requires a company’s listed securities to maintain a minimum market value of at least $50 million, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C) provides that a failure to meet such requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C) we have 180 calendar days, or until February 6, 2023, to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement.

We intend to monitor both the bid price and the market value of our ordinary shares and will evaluate available options to regain compliance with each of the Bid Price Requirement and the MVLS requirement and remain listed on The Nasdaq Global Market. If the Company is unable to satisfy either requirement prior to the respective compliance dates, we expect that Nasdaq will notify us that our ordinary shares are subject to delisting, at which point we may appeal the delisting determination.

- 27 -


There can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with either the Bid Price Requirement or the MVLS Requirement or maintain compliance with any other listing requirements. The de-listing of our ordinary shares from the Nasdaq Global Select Market could negatively impact us by (i) reducing the liquidity and market price of our ordinary shares; (ii) reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our ordinary shares, which could negatively impact our ability to raise equity financing; (iii) impacting our ability to access the public capital markets; (iv) impairing our ability to provide equity incentives to our employees; and (v) triggering certain rights of the holders of our Convertible Notes.

Other than those disclosed above, there have been no other material changes in the risk factors described in Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022.
