1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Business Description.

Transgenomic, Inc. is a global biotechnology company advancing personalized medicine in the detection and treatment of cancer and inherited diseases through its proprietary molecular technologies and clinical and research services. We have two complementary business segments:

Laboratory Services. Our clinical laboratories specialize in genetic testing for cardiology, neurology, mitochondrial disorders and oncology. Our clinical laboratories located in New Haven, Connecticut and Omaha, Nebraska are certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (CLIA) as high complexity labs and our Omaha facility is also accredited by the College of American Pathologists (CAP). Our laboratory located in Omaha, Nebraska also provides pharmacogenomics research services supporting Phase II and Phase III clinical trials conducted by pharmaceutical companies. Our laboratories employ a variety of genomic testing service technologies, including ICE COLD-PCR technology. ICE COLD-PCR is a proprietary platform technology that can be run in any laboratory with standard PCR technology and that enables detection of mutations from virtually any sample type including tissue biopsies, blood and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) at levels greater than 1,000-fold higher than standard DNA sequencing techniques.

•

Diagnostic Tools. Our proprietary product is the WAVE^® System, which has broad applicability to genetic variation detection in both molecular genetic research and molecular diagnostics. We also distribute bioinstruments produced by other manufacturers (“OEM Equipment”) through our sales and distribution network. Service contracts to maintain installed systems are sold and supported by our technical support personnel. The installed WAVE base and some OEM Equipment platforms generate a demand for consumables that are required for the continued operation of the bioinstruments. We develop, manufacture and sell these consumable products. In addition, we manufacture and sell consumable products that can be used on multiple, independent platforms. These products include SURVEYOR^® Nuclease and a range of chromatography columns.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 was derived from our audited balance sheet as of that date. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012 are unaudited and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the interim periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2012 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2013. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

Principles of Consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Transgenomic, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Risks and Uncertainties.

Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent in our day-to-day operations and to the process of preparing our financial statements. The more significant of those risks are presented below and throughout the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. In addition, estimates and assumptions associated with the determination of the fair value of certain assets and related impairments require considerable judgment by

Three and Six Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012

management. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing these consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation regarding segment reporting. In the second quarter of 2013, we modified the presentation of our accrued preferred stock dividend payable from current liabilities to long term liabilities. As a result, we have revised the balance sheet presentation as of December 31, 2012. This revision from current liabilities to long term liabilities has no effect on total assets, liabilities or equity.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation regarding segment reporting.

Fair Value.

Unless otherwise specified, book value approximates fair market value. The common stock warrant liability is recorded at fair value. See Note 9 - "Fair Value"., to the notes to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Cash and Cash Equivalents.

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and investments with original maturities at the date of acquisition of three months or less.

Concentrations of Cash.

From time to time, we may maintain a cash position with financial institutions in amounts that exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses on such accounts as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013.

Accounts Receivable.

The following is a summary of activity for the allowance for doubtful accounts during the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012:

While payment terms are generally 30 days, we have also provided extended payment terms in certain cases. In addition, we operate globally and the payment terms for some of our international customers may be greater than 90 days. Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount and shown net of allowance for doubtful accounts and contractual allowances. The estimate made for doubtful accounts is based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a quarterly basis. We determine the allowance for doubtful accounts and contractual allowances by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history and current economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received. During the first and second quarter of 2013, in accordance with its stated policy, the Company wrote-off approximately $2.0 million of accounts receivable, related to services rendered in prior year periods, determined to be uncollectible.

Inventories.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market net of allowance for obsolete inventory. Cost is computed using standard costs for finished goods and average or latest actual cost for raw materials and work in process, which approximates the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

We determine the allowance for obsolescence by evaluating inventory quarterly for items deemed to be slow moving or obsolete.

Property and Equipment.

Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:



Leasehold improvements	1 to 10 years
Furniture and fixtures	3 to 7 years
Production equipment	3 to 7 years
Computer equipment	3 to 7 years
Research and development equipment	2 to 7 years

Depreciation expense related to property and equipment was $0.2 million and $0.2 million during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Included in depreciation for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $0.1 million and ~~less than~~$0.1 million, respectively, related to equipment acquired under capital leases. Depreciation expense related to property and equipment was $0.3 million and $0.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Included in depreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, related to equipment acquired under capital leases.

Goodwill.

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over fair value of assets acquired and is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually. We perform this impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of each year or when a significant event occurs that may impact goodwill. Impairment occurs when the carrying value is determined to be not recoverable, thereby causing the carrying value of the goodwill to exceed its fair value. If impaired, the asset’s carrying value is reduced to its fair value. No events have transpired in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 that would require an impairment analysis prior to our scheduled review.

Stock Based Compensation.

All stock options awarded to date have exercise prices equal to the market price of our common stock on the date of grant and have ten-year contractual terms. Unvested options as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 had vesting periods of one or three years from the date of grant. None of the stock options outstanding at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 are subject to performance or market-based vesting conditions.

We measure and recognize compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options. Compensation expense is based on the calculated fair value of the awards as measured at the grant date and is expensed ratably over the service period of the awards (generally the vesting period).

During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013, we recorded compensation expense of $0.2 million within selling, general and administrative expense. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013, there was $~~0.5~~0.7 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of nearly three years.

The Black-Scholes~~ model with the following ~~assumptions was used to estimate the fair value of the options:~~assumptions: risk-free interest rates of ~~0.8%~~1.03% based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant; dividend yields of zero percent; expected lives of ~~eight~~8.19 years, based on expected exercise activity behavior; and volatility of ~~109%~~111.35% based on the historical volatility of our common stock over a time that is consistent with the expected life of the option. Forfeitures of ~~1.64%~~1.63% were also assumed.

Net Sales Recognition.

Revenue is realized and earned when all of the following criteria are met:

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,

Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered,

The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and

Collectability is reasonably assured.

Net sales from our Laboratory Services segment are recognized on samples collected from patients of health care providers and individuals who take part in clinical trials. Revenue is recognized from patients of health care providers on an individual test basis and occurs when the test report is completed, reviewed and sent to the client. Sales are recorded at our list price less a provision for insurance and Medicare and Medicaid contractual adjustments. There are no deferred net sales associated with these tests. Adjustments to the allowances, based on actual receipts from third party payers, are recorded upon settlement. For clinical trials, we perform services on a project by project basis and recognize revenue when services are delivered. These projects typically do not extend beyond one year. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, deferred revenue associated with clinical trials for which we have received payment in advance of performing services was $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and was included in the balance sheet in deferred revenue.

Net sales of products in our Diagnostic Tools segment are recognized in accordance with the terms of the sales arrangement. Such recognition is based on receipt of an unconditional customer order and transfer of title and risk of ownership to the customer, typically upon shipment of the product under a purchase order. Our sales terms do not provide for the right of return unless the product is damaged or defective. Net sales from certain services associated with the analytical instruments, to be performed subsequent to shipment of the products, is deferred and recognized when the services are provided. Such services, mainly limited to installation and training services that are not essential to the functionality of the instruments, typically are performed in a timely manner subsequent to shipment of the instrument. We also enter into various service contracts that cover installed instruments. These contracts, for which payment is received at the time of execution, cover specific time periods and net sales associated with these contracts are deferred and recognized ratably over the service period. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, deferred net revenue associated with our service contracts was $~~1.1~~1.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and iswas included in the balance sheet in deferred revenue.

Taxes collected from customers and remitted to government agencies for specific sales transactions are recorded net any sales tax collected with no effect on the income statement.

Common Stock Warrants.

~~Our~~Certain of our issued and outstanding warrants to purchase common stock do not qualify to be treated as equity and, accordingly, are recorded as a liability ("Common Stock Warrant Liability"). The Common Stock Warrant Liability was initially recorded at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model. We are required to present these instruments at fair value at each reporting date and any changes in fair values are recorded as an adjustment to earnings. The Common Stock Warrant Liability is considered a Level Three financial instrument for purposes of fair value measurement. See Note 9 - ~~"Fair Value".~~“Fair Value” to the notes to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Translation of Foreign Currency.

Our foreign subsidiary uses the local currency of the country in which it is located, British Pound Sterling, as its functional currency. Its assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. A cumulative translation loss of $0.2 million is reported as other comprehensive income on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the ~~three~~six months ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013. A cumulative translation gain of $0.1 million was reported as accumulated

other comprehensive income for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2012. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rates during the period. For transactions that are not denominated in the functional currency, we recognized less than $0.1 million as foreign currency transaction income in the determination of net loss for the ~~three~~six months ~~ending~~ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and less than $0.1 million as foreign currency transaction loss in the determination of net loss for the ~~three~~six months ~~ending~~ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2012.

Loss Per Share.

Basic loss per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each ~~period.~~of June 30, 2013 and 2012. Diluted loss per share includes shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants or conversion rights that have exercise or conversion prices below the market value of our common stock. Options, warrants and conversion rights pertaining to ~~34,668,398~~40,008,668 and ~~28,741,938~~29,416,204 shares of our common stock have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The options, warrants and conversion rights that were exercisable in 2013 and 2012 were not included because the effect would be anti-dilutive due to the net loss.

Recent accounting pronouncements.

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ~~ASU~~Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-2, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2013-2"), that required the presentation of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under ~~GAAP~~generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about these amounts is required. ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this new guidance had no impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2013, the FASB released ~~Accounting Standards Update~~ASU No. 2013-05 ("ASU 2013-05"), Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). ASU 2013-05 requires that when a reporting entity (parent) ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity, the parent is required to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income. The provisions of ASU 2013-05 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. When adopted, ASU 2013-05 is not expected to materially impact our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

On March 13, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with affiliates of Third Security, LLC (the “Lenders”) for (a) a revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Line”) with borrowing availability of up to $4.0 million,

Table of Contents

TRANSGENOMIC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012

subject to reduction based on our eligible accounts receivable, and (b) a term loan (the “Term Loan”) of $4.0 million (the “Loan Agreement”). Proceeds were used to pay off the First Note and for general corporate and working capital purposes.

On August 2, 2013, we entered into an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, the ("Amendment"). The Amendment, which became effective as of June 30, 2013, reduces our future minimum revenue covenants under the Loan Agreement and modifies the interest rates applicable to the amounts advance under the Revolving Line of credit. As of June 30, 2013, we were in compliance with the amended financial covenants.

(1)

Revolving Line of Credit Amounts advanced under the Revolving Line bear interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) 4.25% or (b) the Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 1%. Interest is payable on a monthly basis, with the balance payable at the maturity of the Revolving Line. The current interest rate is 4.25%. Under the Amendment, amounts advanced under the Revolving Line bear interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) 6.25% or (b) the Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 3% . Under the Loan Agreement, we paid the Lenders an upfront fee of $20,000, and will pay the Lenders an additional commitment fee of $20,000 on each anniversary of the Effective Date during the term of the Revolving Line. In addition, a fee of 0.5% per year is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the Revolving Line. The Revolving Line matures on September 1, 2016.

(2)

Term Loan We received $4.0 million under the Term Loan on the Effective Date. We are required to make interest-only payments under the Term Loan through December 31, 2013 and principal and interest payments on a monthly basis, beginning on January 1, 2014, over 33 months using a straight-line amortization rate. Interest under the Term Loan will accrue at the annual rate of one month LIBOR plus 6.1%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 3%. The current interest rate is 9.1%.

We paid the Lenders an upfront fee of $40,000 for the Term Loan, and will pay the Lenders an additional final payment of $120,000 at maturity or prepayment of the Term Loan. In addition, if we repay the Term Loan prior to maturity, we will pay the Lenders a prepayment penalty of 5% of the total outstanding balance under the Term Loan if the prepayment occurs within one year after the Effective Date, 2.5% of the total outstanding balance under the Term Loan if the prepayment occurs between one and two years after the Effective Date, and 1% of the total outstanding balance under the Term Loan if the prepayment occurs thereafter.

Additional Terms

The Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants. Under the Term Loan, we are required to maintain a minimum liquidity ratio and achieve a minimum amount of revenue, and we also agreed not to (i) pledge or otherwise encumber our assets other than to the Lenders, (ii) enter into additional borrowings or guarantees, (iii) repurchase our capital stock, or (iv) enter into certain mergers or acquisitions without the Lenders' consent. ~~We were in compliance with all financial covenants as~~Additionally, the Loan Agreement contains a subjective acceleration clause at the discretion of ~~March 31, 2013~~.the Lenders.

To secure the repayment of any amounts borrowed under the Revolving Line and the Term Loan, we granted the Lenders a security interest in all of our assets. The occurrence of an event of default under the Loan Agreement could result in the acceleration of our obligations under the Loan Agreement and would increase the applicable interest rate under the Revolving Line or the Term Loan (or both) by 5%, and permit the Lenders to exercise remedies with respect to the collateral under the Loan Agreement.

(3)

The First Note was a three year senior secured promissory note payable to PGxHealth, LLC entered into on December 29, 2010 in conjunction with our acquisition of the FAMILION family of genetic tests. Interest was payable at 10% per year with quarterly interest payments through March 29, 2012. Thereafter, quarterly installments include both principal and interest through December 30, 2013. The First Note was paid in full on March 13, 2013.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time we are subject to claims of various amounts, which arise out of the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the disposition of pending claims will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We lease certain equipment, vehicles and operating facilities under non-cancellable operating leases that expire on various dates through 2022. The future minimum lease payments required under these leases are approximately $~~0.8~~0.5 million for the

remainder of 2013, $~~1.1~~1.0 million in 2014, $1.0 million in 2015, $0.9 million in 2016, $0.8 million in 2017 and $1.3 million thereafter. Rent expense for each of the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $~~0.2~~0.6 million and $~~0.2~~0.5 million, respectively. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013, firm commitments to vendors totaled $~~2.4~~2.1 million.

7. INCOME TAXES

We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. state jurisdictions and various foreign jurisdictions. We have statutes of limitation open for federal income tax returns related to tax years 2009 through 2012. We have state income tax returns subject to examination primarily for tax years 2009 through 2012. Open tax years related to foreign jurisdictions, primarily the United Kingdom, remain subject to examination for the tax years 2009 through 2012.

Income tax expense for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 was $0.1 million. Income tax expense for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2012 was less than $0.1 million. Our effective tax rate for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 was ~~1.88%~~0.1%, which is primarily the result of valuation allowances against the net operating losses for the U.S., which results in us not recording net deferred tax assets in the U.S.

During each of the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012, there were no material changes to the liability for uncertain tax positions.

8. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock.

Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 150,000,000 shares of common stock, from time to time, as provided in a resolution or resolutions adopted by our shareholders.

On February 7, 2012, we entered into definitive agreements with institutional and other accredited investors and raised approximately $22.0 million in a private placement financing (the "Private Placement"), which ~~includes~~included an aggregate of $3.0 million in convertible notes issued in December 2011 to entities ~~associated~~affiliated with Third Security, LLC, a related party, that automatically ~~convert~~converted into shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase such common stock on the same terms as all investors in the Private Placement. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, we issued an aggregate of 19,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price per share of $1.00, as well as five-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 11,435,158 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $1.08 per share. In connection with the conversion of the convertible notes issued by us to the entities associated with Third Security, LLC, the entities received an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,736,110 warrants on the same terms as all investors in the Private Placement. The costs incurred to complete the Private Placement were recorded as a reduction in equity in the amount of $1.5 million. Net proceeds from this offering ~~will be~~are being used for general corporate and working capital purposes, primarily to accelerate development of several of our key initiatives.

On January 24, 2013, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional and other accredited investors pursuant to which we: (i) sold to the investors an aggregate of 16,600,000 shares of our common stock at a price per share of $0.50 for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $8.3 million; and (ii) issued to the investors warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,300,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.75 per share (the "Offering"). The warrants may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time from January 30, 2013 until January 30, 2018 and contain both cash and “cashless exercise” features. Affiliates of Third Security, LLC, a related party, purchased an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock in ~~this transaction~~the Offering on the same terms as the other investors. We ~~currently intend to use~~are using the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate and working capital purposes, primarily to accelerate development of several of our key initiatives.

In connection with the Offering, we ~~also~~ entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement required that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement to register for resale the shares and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants (the

9. FAIR VALUE

FASB guidance on fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements for our financial assets and liabilities, as well as for other assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis in our consolidated financial statements.

FASB guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price assets or liabilities. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities,

Level 2—Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, and

Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions and best estimate of what inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Debt

Our long term debt is considered a Level 2 liability for which book value approximates fair market value.

Common Stock Warrant Liability

~~Our~~Certain of our issued and outstanding warrants to purchase common stock do not qualify to be treated as equity, and accordingly are recorded as a liability. The Common Stock Warrant Liability represents the fair value of the ~~11.4~~13.2 million warrants issued in February 2012. We are required to record these instruments at fair value at each reporting date and changes are recorded as a non-cash adjustment to earnings. The gains or losses included in earnings are reported in other income (expense) in our Statement of Operations. Management does not believe that this liability will be settled by a use of cash.

~~Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 and 2012~~

The Common Stock Warrant Liability is considered a Level 3 financial instrument and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation. This method is well suited to value options with non-standard features, such as anti-dilution protection. A Monte Carlo simulation model uses repeated random sampling to simulate significant uncertainty in inputs. Assumptions and inputs used in the valuation of the common stock warrants are broken down into four sections: Static Business Inputs; Static Technical Inputs; Simulated Business ~~Inputs:~~Inputs; and Simulated Technical Inputs.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012

Static Business Inputs include: our equity value, which was estimated using our stock price of $0.40 as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013; the amount of the down-round financing, the timing of the down-round financing, the expected exercise period of ~~3.9~~3.61 years from the valuation date and the fact that no other potential fundamental transactions are expected during the term of the common stock warrants.

Static Technical Inputs include: volatility of ~~57.5%~~55% and the risk-free interest rate of ~~0.57%~~0.85% based on the 43.5-year U.S. Treasury yield interpolated from the 3 year and 5 year U.S. Treasury bonds.

Simulated Business Inputs include: the probability of down-round financing which was estimated to be 25% for simulated equity values below the down-round financing cut-off point.

Simulated Technical Inputs include: our equity value in periods 1-10 follows a geometric Brownian motion and is simulated over 10 independent six-month periods; a down-round financing event was randomly simulated in an iteration based on the 25% discrete probability of a down-round financing for those iterations where our simulated equity value at the expected timing of down-round financing was below the down-round financing cut-off point.

During 2013 we noted an error in the calculation of the warrant liability as of December 31, 2012 causing the liability to be understated by $0.3 million. This has been corrected in 2013.

During the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013, the changes in the fair value of the liability measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) was comprised of the following:

11. OPERATING SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

Our chief operating decision-maker is our Chief Executive Officer, who regularly evaluates our performance based on net sales and net loss before taxes. The preparation of this segment analysis requires management to make estimates and assumptions around expenses below the gross profit level. While we believe the segment information to be directionally correct, actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing this information.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as the policies discussed in Note 2 – "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies". to the notes to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In the first quarter of 2013, we consolidated our Clinical Laboratories and Pharmacogenomic Services business segments into a single segment and, going forward, it will be referred to as our Laboratory Services segment. We now have two reportable operating segments, Laboratory Services and Diagnostic Tools. Accordingly, segment results of the prior period have been reclassified to reflect these changes.

Segment information for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

Overview

We are a global biotechnology company advancing personalized medicine in the detection and treatment of cancer and inherited diseases through our proprietary molecular technologies and clinical and research services. We have two complementary business segments:

Laboratory Services. Our clinical laboratories specialize in genetic testing for cardiology, neurology, mitochondrial disorders and oncology. Our clinical laboratories located in New Haven, Connecticut and Omaha, Nebraska are certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (CLIA) as high complexity labs and our Omaha facility is also accredited by the College of American Pathologists (CAP). Our laboratory located in Omaha, Nebraska also provides pharmacogenomics research services supporting Phase II and Phase III clinical trials conducted by pharmaceutical companies. Our laboratories employ a variety of genomic testing service technologies including ICE COLD-PCR technology. ICE COLD-PCR is a proprietary platform technology that can be run in any laboratory with standard PCR technology and that enables detection of mutations from virtually any sample type including tissue biopsies, blood and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) at levels greater than 1,000-fold higher than standard DNA sequencing techniques.

•

Diagnostic Tools. Our proprietary product is the WAVE^® System which has broad applicability to genetic variation detection in both molecular genetic research and molecular diagnostics. We also distribute bioinstruments produced by other manufacturers (“OEM Equipment”) through our sales and distribution network. Service contracts to maintain installed systems are sold and supported by our technical support personnel. The installed WAVE base and some OEM Equipment platforms generate a demand for consumables that are required for the continued operation of the bioinstruments. We develop, manufacture and sell these consumable products. In addition, we manufacture and sell consumable products that can be used on multiple, independent platforms. These products include SURVEYOR^® Nuclease and a range of chromatography columns.

Second Quarter 2013 Overview

We are advancing personalized medicine in cardiology, oncology, neurology and inherited diseases through our proprietary molecular technologies and world-class clinical research services. Today, we are a global leader in ~~cardiac genetic~~molecular diagnostic testing with a family of innovative products including the C-GAAP test (Clopidogrel Genetic Absorption Activation Panel). We are proud to report that Transgenomic was recently awarded the 2013 Governor's Bioscience Award in April 2013. The Bioscience Award recognizes companies that have made significant contributions to the bioscience industry in Nebraska.

In ~~the first quarter of~~ 2013, we consolidated our Clinical Laboratories and Pharmacogenomic Services business segments into a single segment, ~~and, going forward, it will be referred~~which we now refer to as our Laboratory Services segment. We continue to anticipate growth in both our Laboratory Services and Diagnostic Tools segments, as we commercialize new technologies and tests we have developed internally, in-licensed, or acquired, and as we expand into other markets and regions worldwide.

In the Laboratory Services unit, we recently announced our entry into a collaboration with Amgen, Inc. for the development and launch of a CE-IVD test to screen patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) for KRAS and NRAS mutations (collectively referred to as “RAS mutations”). In June 2013, Amgen presented results of a predefined-retrospective subset analysis of a global, multicenter, randomized Phase 3 study at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2013 Annual Meeting. These RAS mutations outlined in the study, identified using our CE-IVD CRC RAScan™ kits in conjunction with our Surveyor®-Wave® technology, provide physicians with important information regarding tumor mutation status to inform clinical treatment decisions for their mCRC patients. The CRC RAScan™ kit provides superior sensitivity versus any other kit or sequencing method currently available. Our CLIA-certified laboratory in the U.S. is validated to receive patient samples for testing. In Europe, CE-IVD registered test kits are now available for purchase. CLIA testing revenue is recorded in our Laboratory Services segment, while kit sales revenue is recognized in our Diagnostic Tools segment.

CRC RAScan^TM utilizes the DNA mismatch-cutting enzyme SURVEYOR Nuclease assay, developed exclusively by us. The SURVEYOR Nuclease assay can detect mutations at higher levels of sensitivity than stand-alone Sanger sequencing. CRC RAScan^TM results can also be used to inform marginal or difficult to resolve sequencing results. Additionally, in gene regions where mutations exist at low frequencies, prescreening with CRC RAScan^TM affords a cost and time-efficient workflow, as only CRC RAScan^TM positive samples are advanced to the more complex and expensive Sanger sequencing analysis.

ScoliScore™, our newest acquisition, is the first clinically validated, saliva-based multi-gene diagnostic test that identifies patients who will not progress to a severe curvature of the spine, thereby reducing those patients' need for repeated doctor visits, physical examinations and, most importantly, years of exposure to radiation from frequent X-Rays.

The market for ScoliScore^TM is significant, with nearly 100,000 children and adolescents, usually between the ages of 8 and 15, entering the medical system annually with scoliosis. ~~At any one time there are at least 400,000 patients being monitored for the disease until they reach spinal maturity.~~ Only a small percentage, roughly 3%, of these children will progress to severe scoliosis, a severe curvature of the spine that would require surgical intervention, yet all of them will be followed clinically and screened with repeated x-rays throughout their childhood and adolescent development to monitor their condition. The elevated risk and incidence of cancer these children face as a result of these repeated x-rays is well documented. ScoliScore^TM is the only test on the market that can determine whether these patients will not progress to a severe curvature of the spine requiring surgical correction. The ScoliScore^TM test determines a risk profile for each patient based on their unique genetics and extent of curvature when first profiled. Since the vast majority of children will not develop severe scoliosis, the risk profile can then be used by the treating or monitoring physician to direct safer and more cost-effective monitoring, including fewer x-rays. This translates into tremendous cost savings in terms of individual lives and to our healthcare system.

In support of ScoliScore^TM, we have expanded our sales team, are collaborating with key opinion leaders in the field to expand awareness, ~~collate~~are testing patient data ~~for~~in support of publications that demonstrate the clinical utility of the test, and are actively working with payers to expand coverage and reimbursement. We are also initiating marketing campaign efforts to reach patients and their families to educate them about the risks from repeated x-rays. We expect ScoliScore^TM will contribute to revenue growth throughout 2013 and beyond.

~~We also continue to provide increased sales and marketing support behind our~~

Our proprietary C-GAAP ~~test. C-GAAP~~(Clopidogrel Genetic Absorption Activation Panel) test is a simple but comprehensive saliva test that more accurately predicts a patient's response to Plavix® (clopidogrel). This innovative test analyzes markers in two important genes to identify patients who are at a genetically increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events due to diminished effectiveness of Plavix. Clopidogrel is the most widely prescribed antiplatelet drug used worldwide to reduce the risks of death, stroke and heart attack in heart disease patients. Patients with dysfunctional CYP2C19 and ABCB1 genes treated with clopidogrel exhibit a 50% increase in major adverse cardiovascular event rates than do patients with normal CYP2C19 and ABCB1 genetic function. Our C-GAAP is the only assay on the market that includes both genes in the test.

We continue to expand the commercial reach of our cardiology platform through the growth of our FAMILION franchise, which currently includes thirteen tests designed to detect for the vast number of genetic mutations that can cause cardiac disorders. The comprehensive nature of our FAMILION genetic tests demonstrates our commitment to setting the standard for cardiac genetic testing today.

We continue to progress our commercial collaboration with the Medical College of Wisconsin, ~~Laboratories,~~ a world-renowned institution with a robust presence in genomics and genetic testing. MCW conducts our proprietary NuclearMitome Test which employs next-generation sequencing technology to identify mutations in 448 genes and, to date, represents the most comprehensive genetic test available for mitochondrial disorders. Mitochondrial disorders are notoriously difficult to diagnose because they affect multiple organ systems, including the liver, the brain and nervous system, kidneys, and cardiovascular system. This collaboration allows us to rapidly expand the commercial use of ~~this innovative test and to commence building out~~ our ~~offerings in whole genome and exome testing.~~

Other services that we offer in our Laboratory Services business include performing genetic testing involving cancer pathway gene mutation analysis and other associated genomics testing services for a number of pharmaceutical companies: both for pre-clinical drug discovery projects and Phase II and III clinical trials.

Also in the Laboratory Services unit, we continue to advance ICE COLD-PCR, our breakthrough mutation detection technology that enables unmatched sensitivity and complete DNA mutation detection using standard sequencing equipment. The extremely high sensitivity of ICE COLD-PCR enables detection of mutations from virtually any sample type including tissue

commercial applications. The ICE COLD-PCR technology, exclusively licensed by us for DNA sequencing analysis, was developed in collaboration with the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and is supported by multiple validation studies confirming reproducible mutation detection up to 1,000 to 10,000 times more sensitive than traditional sequencing and PCR techniques. In ~~addition to our ongoing study~~June 2013, in a joint announcement with ~~The~~ApoCell, Inc., we announced the results of a research collaboration with the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center ~~evaluating~~that coupled ApoCell's ApoStream™ platform for isolating circulating tumor cells (CTCs) with our ICE COLD-PCR technology to detect signature mutations in ~~several~~CTCs isolated from the blood of lung cancer ~~types,~~patients. This small pilot study demonstrated that ICE COLD-PCR technology was able to detect a number of the mutations in CTCs that were found in matched tumors from the ~~second half of 2012 we initiated several new collaborations for clinical validation~~same patient. The results were presented at the ASCO 2013 Annual Meeting. The broad use of this ~~breakthrough platform technology.~~innovative technology has the potential to revolutionize cancer screening, diagnosis, monitoring, and therapy selection since it has the ability to perform safer, less invasive, and more frequent assessments of a cancer and its mutations, all through a simple blood draw. We ~~expect that the results~~are also completing a review of future diagnostic applications and utility of the ~~MD Anderson study will be announced later this year. We have also received an NIH STTR grant to study blood testing for pancreatic cancer with colleagues at the University of Nebraska Medical Center.~~

We continue to pursue clinical trial projects from several top-tier pharmaceutical companies, and we believe these relationships and project successes will drive growth during 2013 as we begin to realize larger study contracts and opportunities to develop tests that support oncology drug treatment and patient selection. Over the long term, we believe our expertise with ICE COLD-PCR ~~combined with our expanding number of tests, will further contribute to our pharma partner~~technology and ~~clinical trial projects and the advancement of “blood biopsies”~~products for ~~selecting or verifying treatment for cancer patients without the need for an expensive, invasive tissue biopsy.~~commercial applications.

In the Diagnostic Tools business, our instrument sales continue to translate into incremental revenue from consumables and service contract sales, providing compounded and repeating revenue. In 2012, we achieved CE IVD Mark registration in Europe for the diagnostic use of our proprietary WAVE MCE System and SURVEYOR® Scan KRAS Kit. This kit contains a simple, yet highly sensitive test to identify mutations in the KRAS gene, which are key determinants of the effectiveness of modern cancer drugs. Gaining the CE IVD Mark expands the market reach significantly by allowing product sales in the European Union.

Uncertainties

We have historically operated at a loss and have not consistently generated sufficient cash from operating activities to cover our operating and other cash expenses. We have been able to historically finance our operating losses through borrowings or from the issuance of additional equity. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 we had cash and cash equivalents of $~~7.7~~6.4 million. We believe that existing sources of liquidity are sufficient to meet expected cash needs for at least the next 12 months.

The uncertainty of the current general economic conditions could negatively impact our business in the future. There are many factors that affect the market demand for our products and services that we cannot control. Demand for our Diagnostic Tools business is affected by the needs and budgetary resources of research institutions, universities and hospitals. The instrument purchase represents a significant expenditure by these types of customers and often requires a long sales cycle. These customers may not have the funding available to purchase our instruments. Competition and new instruments in the marketplace also may impact our sales. Our Laboratory Services business is dependent upon reimbursement from government and private payers that continually look for ways to reduce costs, including by unilaterally reducing reimbursement for services such as those that we provide. The government issued new reimbursement codes in 2013, which were set at pricing levels that were generally lower than the levels for identical tests in 2012. Certain private payers also used the issuance of the new codes as an opportunity to unilaterally lower their reimbursement rates. There are no assurances that reimbursements from certain of these providers will remain at levels that will allow us to be profitable.

We have translation risk that occurs when transactions are consummated in a currency other than British Pound Sterling, which is the functional currency of our foreign subsidiary. These transactions, which are most often consummated in Euros, must be translated into British Pound Sterling. In addition, results of operations and the balance sheet of our foreign subsidiary are translated from British Pound Sterling to our reporting currency, which is the U.S. Dollar. As a result, we are subject to exchange rate risk. Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates could impact our business and financial results.

Diagnostic Tools net sales of $~~2.9~~3.3 million ~~decreased~~ ~~$0.3 million, or~~ 8%,were slightly higher, during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012~~, as we sold fewer instruments in the~~ ~~first~~ ~~quarter of~~ ~~2013~~ ~~than in the~~ ~~first~~ ~~quarter of~~ ~~2012~~. ~~The decline in instrument sales was partially offset by higher sales of consumables.~~

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold includes material costs for the products that we sell and substantially all other costs associated with our manufacturing facilities (primarily personnel costs, rent and depreciation). It also includes direct costs (primarily personnel costs, rent, supplies and depreciation) associated with our Laboratory Services operations.

We had higher sales costs due to the increase in the size of our sales force to support C-GAAP and the launch of ScoliScore^TM~~. We also had higher bad debt expense during the three months ended~~ ~~March 31, 2013~~.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses primarily include personnel costs, intellectual property fees, outside services, collaboration expenses, supplies and facility costs and are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012, these costs totaled $~~0.8~~0.9 million and $~~0.5~~0.7 million, respectively. The increase in research and development costs is due in part to activities related to converting a number of our tests to a more efficient Next Generation Sequencing instrument platform. Research and development expenses totaled ~~10%~~12% and 8%7% of net sales during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel costs, marketing, travel costs, professional fees, facility costs and bad debt provisions. Our selling, general and administrative costs increased $1.9 million to $12.2 million from $10.3 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. We had higher sales costs due to the increase in the size of our sales force to support C-GAAP and the launch of ScoliScore^TM. We also recorded a higher bad debt provision during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses primarily include personnel costs, intellectual property fees, outside services, collaboration expenses, supplies and facility costs and are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, these costs totaled $1.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The increase in research and development costs is due in part to activities related to converting a number of our tests to a more efficient Next Generation Sequencing instrument platform.

Historically, we have operated at a loss and have not consistently generated sufficient cash from operating activities to cover our operating and other cash expenses. We have been able to finance our operating losses through borrowings or from the issuance of additional equity. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $~~7.7~~6.4 million. We believe that existing sources of liquidity are sufficient to meet expected cash needs for the next 12 months. On January 30, 2013, we issued 16,600,000 shares of common stock at a price per share of $0.50, as well as five year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,300,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.75 per share. On March 13, 2013, we entered into a loan and security agreement with affiliates of Third Security, LLC for a revolving line of credit with borrowing availability of up to $4.0 million, subject to reduction based on our eligible accounts receivable, and a term loan of $4 million. Proceeds were used to extinguish the debt with PGxHealth and for working capital purposes. However, we cannot be certain that we will be able to increase our net sales, further reduce our expenses or raise additional capital. Accordingly, we may not have sufficient sources of liquidity to continue our operations indefinitely.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At each of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations outside the normal course of business as compared to those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,2012.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements may involve the use of management judgments and estimates. Certain of our accounting policies are considered critical as they are both important to the portrayal of our financial statements and they require significant or complex judgments on the part of management. Our judgments and estimates are based on experience and assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Further, we evaluate our judgments and estimates from time to time as circumstances change. Actual financial results based on judgments or estimates may vary under different assumptions or circumstances. Our critical accounting policies are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2013.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2013.

Impact of Inflation

We do not believe that price inflation or deflation had a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations during the periods presented.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Translation Risk

Sales of products in foreign countries are mainly completed in either the Euro or the British Pound Sterling. Additionally, the British Pound Sterling is the functional currency of our wholly owned subsidiary, Transgenomic Limited. Results of operations and the balance sheet are translated from the functional currency of the subsidiary to our reporting currency of the U.S. Dollar. Results of operations for our foreign subsidiary are translated using the average exchange rate during the period. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. In addition, we have revaluation risk, which occurs when the transaction is consummated in a currency other than the British Pound Sterling. This transaction must be revalued by Transgenomic Limited, as its functional currency is the British Pound Sterling. The majority of the transactions consummated by Transgenomic Limited are in Euros. As a result, we are subject to exchange rate risk and we do not currently engage in foreign currency hedging activities.

Based on our overall foreign currency exchange rate exposures at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013, we believe that a 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would ~~[not]~~not be expected to have a material effect on our future operating results or cash flows, depending on which foreign currency exchange rates change and depending on the directional change (either a strengthening or weakening against the U.S. Dollar). If our foreign operations grow, our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk may become more significant.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

We have evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2013 and concluded that there have not been any changes 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

We are subject to a number of claims of various amounts that arise out of the normal course of our business. In our opinion, the disposition of pending claims will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


Item 1A.	Risk Factors

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those previously disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, ~~2013.~~2013 except as follows:

Failure to comply with covenants in our loan agreements withaffiliates of Third Security, LLC could adversely affect us.

Our revolving line of credit and term loan with affiliates of Third Security, LLC (the “Lenders”) are governed by a Loan and Security Agreement, which contains affirmative and negative covenants. Under the term loan, we are required to maintain a minimum liquidity ratio and achieve a minimum amount of revenue, and we also agreed not to (i) pledge or otherwise encumber our assets other than to the Lenders, (ii) enter into additional borrowings or guarantees, (iii) repurchase our capital stock, or (iv) enter into certain mergers or acquisitions without the Lenders' consent. To secure the repayment of amounts borrowed under the revolving line of credit and term loan, we granted the Lenders a security interest in all of our assets. Failure to comply with the covenants under the loan agreement would be an event of default under the loan agreement that, if not cured or waived, would give the Lenders the right to cease making additional advances, accelerate repayment of all sums due and take action to collect the amounts owed to them, including foreclosing on their security interest, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
