We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based on many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Company to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures. These estimates form the basis for judgments the Company makes about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge about current events and expectations about actions the Company may undertake in the future. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, the net realizable valuemeasurement of inventory, expected future cash flows including growth rates, discount rates, terminal values and other assumptions and estimates used to evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets, estimated fair values of intangibleright-of-use assets and goodwill,lease liabilities and related incremental borrowing rate, the payable to related parties pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”)(as defined in Note 9), amortization methods and periods, the fair value of leased buildings and other assumptions associated with lease financing transactions, the estimated fair valuerealizability of our long-term debt, equity-based compensation, thenet deferred tax assets, and valuation of incentive units, allowance for doubtful accounts,goodwill and accounting for income taxes and assessment of valuation allowances.intangible assets acquired in business combinations.

A description of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 of the audited financial statements withinNotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Annual Report on2021 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There10-K. Except as noted below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2021.2022.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of products, and services and the performance ofto a much lesser extent, services in the fields of nucleic acid production, biologics safety testing and protein detection. Revenue is recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for its arrangements with customers, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The majority of the Company’s contracts include only one performance obligation. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or
12

Table of Contents
service to the customer and is defined as the unit of account for revenue recognition. The Company also recognizes revenue from other contracts that may include a combination of products and services, the provision of solely services, or from license fee arrangements which may be associated with the delivery of product. Where there is a combination of products and services, the Company accounts for the promises as individual performance obligations if they are concluded to be distinct. Performance obligations are considered distinct if they are both capable of being distinct and distinct within the context of the contract. In determining whether performance obligations meet the criteria for being distinct, the Company considers a number of factors, such as the degree of interrelation and interdependence between obligations, and whether or not the good or service significantly modifies or transforms another good or service in the contract. As a practical expedient, we do not adjust the transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component if, at contract inception, the period between customer payment and the transfer of goods or services is expected to be one year or less. Contracts with customers are evaluated on a contract-by-contract basis as contracts may include multiple types of goods and services as described below.
Revenue for an individual contract is recognized at the related transaction price, which is the amount the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring the products and/or services. The transaction price for product sales is calculated at the contracted product selling price. The transaction price for a contract with multiple performance obligations is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices for products are determined based on the prices charged to customers, which are directly observable. Standalone selling price of services are mostly based on time and materials. Generally, payments from customers are due when goods and services are transferred. As most contracts contain a single performance obligation, the transaction price is representative of the standalone selling price charged to customers. Revenue is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the cumulative amount recognized will not occur in future periods. Variable consideration has not been material to our consolidated financial statements.
The Company accepts returns only if the products do not meet customer specifications and historically, the Company’s volume of product returns has not been significant. Further, no warranties are provided for promised goods and services other than assurance type warranties.
The Company has elected the practical exemption to not disclose the unfulfilled performance obligations for contracts with an original length of one year or less. The Company had no material unfulfilled performance obligations for contracts with an original length greater than one year for any period presented.
Nucleic Acid Production
Nucleic Acid Production revenue is generated from the manufacture and sale of highly modified, complex nucleic acids products to support the needs of our of customers’ research, therapeutic and vaccine programs. The primary offering of products include; CleanCap®includes CleanCap®, mRNA and specialized oligonucleotides. Contracts typically consist of a single performance obligation. We also sell nucleic acid products for labeling and detecting proteins in cells and tissue samples research. The Company recognizes revenue from these products in the period in which the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control to the customer. Revenue for nucleic acid catalog products is recognized at a single point in time, generally upon shipment to the customer. Revenue for contracts for certain custom nucleic acid products, with an enforceable right to payment and a reasonable margin for work performed to date, is recognized over time, based on a cost-to-cost input method over the manufacturing period. Payments received from customers in advance of manufacturing their products is recorded as deferred revenue until the products were delivered.
Biologics Safety Testing
The Company’s Biologics Safety Testing revenue is associated with the sale of bioprocess impurity detection kit products. We also enter into contracts that include custom antibody development, assay development and antibody
12

Table of Contents
affinity extraction services. These products and services enable the detection of impurities that occur in the manufacturing of biologic drugs and other therapeutics. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of bioprocess impurity detection kits in the period in which the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control to the customer. Custom antibody development contracts consist of a single performance obligation, typically with an enforceable right to payment and a reasonable margin for work performed to date. Revenue is recognized over time based on a cost-to-cost input method over the contract term. Where an enforceable right to payment does not exist, revenue is recognized at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Assay development service contracts consist of a single performance obligation, revenue is recognized at a point in time when a successful antigen test and report is provided to the customer. Affinity extraction services, which generally occur over a short period of time, consist of a single performance obligation to perform the extraction service and provide a summary report to the customer. Revenue is recognized either over time or at a point in time depending on contractual payment terms with the customer.

Protein Detection
ThePrior to the divestiture of its Protein Detection business in September 2021, the Company also manufacturesmanufactured and sellssold protein labeling and detection reagents to customers that arewere used for basic research and development. The contracts to sell these catalog products consistconsisted of a single performance obligation to deliver the reagent products. Revenue from these contracts iswas recognized at a point in time, generally upon shipment of the final product to the customer.
The Company elected the practical expedient to not disclose the unfulfilled performance obligations for contracts with an original length of one year or less. The Company had no material unfulfilled performance obligations for contracts with an original length greater than one year for any period presented.
The Company accepts returns only if the products do not meet customer specifications and historically, the Company’s volume of product returns has not been significant. Further, no warranties are provided for promised goods and services other than assurance type warranties.
Revenue for an individual contract is recognized at the related transaction price, which is the amount the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring the products and/or services. The transaction price for product sales is calculated at the contracted product selling price.

Variable consideration has not been material to our consolidated financial statements.
Sales taxes
Sales taxes collected by the Company are not included in the transaction price as revenue as they are ultimately remitted to a governmental authority.
Shipping and handling costs
ShippingThe Company has elected to account for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as costs which are charged to customers, are included infulfill the promise to transfer the associated products. Accordingly, revenue for shipping and handling is recognized at the same time that the related product revenue is recognized.
Contract costs
The Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred when the amortization period of the assets that otherwise would have been recognized is one year or less. These costs are included in sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses. The costs to fulfill the contracts are determined to be immaterial and are recognized as an expense when incurred.
Contract balances
Contract assets are generated when contractual billing schedules differ from revenue recognition timing and the Company records a contract receivable when it has an unconditional right to consideration. Contract assetsThere were no contract asset balances which are included in prepaid and other current assets, totaled $1.0 million and $0.2 million as of March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020, respectively.2021.

Non-Controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss, net assets and comprehensive income of our consolidated subsidiaries that is not allocable to the Company based on our percentage of ownership of such entities. Non-controlling interests consist of the following:
Until November, 2020 Topco LLC held a 70% ownership interest in MLSC Holdings, LLC (“MLSC”) through its consolidated subsidiaries with the remaining 30% being recorded as non-controlling interests in our consolidated financial statements. MLSC net income or loss was attributed to the non-controlling interests using an attribution method, similar to the hypothetical liquidation at book value method, based on the distribution provisions of the MLSC Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (“MLSC LLC Agreement”). In November 2020, and beforefollowing the closingcompletion of the IPO, Topco LLC repurchased all of the outstanding non-controlling interests in MLSC for $166.4 million.
In November 2020, based on the Organizational Transactions, described above, we became the sole managing member of Topco LLC. As of March 31, 2021,2022, we holdheld approximately 38%51.5% of the outstanding LLC Units of Topco LLC, and MLSH 1 held approximately 62%48.5% of the outstanding LLC Units of Topco LLC are held by MLSH 1.LLC. Therefore, we report non-controlling interests based on the percentage of LLC Units of Topco LLC held by MLSH 1 on ourthe condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021.2022. Income or loss attributed to the non-controlling interest in Topco LLC is based on the LLC Units outstanding during the period for which the income or loss is generated and is presented on the condensed consolidated statements of income and condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
MLSH 1 is entitled to exchange its LLC Units of Topco LLC, together with an equal number of shares of our Class B common stock (together referred to as “Paired Interests”), for shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis or, at our election, for cash, from a substantially concurrent public offering or private sale (based on the price of our Class A common stock in such public offering or private sale). As such, future exchanges of Paired Interests by MLSH 1 will result in a change in ownership and reduce or increase the amount recorded as non-controlling interests and increase or decrease additional paid-in-capital when Topco LLC has positive or negative net assets, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, MLSH 1 did not exchange any Paired Interests. In April 2021, MLSH 1 executed an exchange
Distributions of Paired Interest immediately prior to the closing of the Company’s secondary offering (see Note 11)
A distribution of$39.9 million and $23.1 million for tax liabilities waswere made to MLSH 1 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. NaN distributions were made during the three months ended March 31, 2020.2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Company has reported the historical results of the Protein Detection business as such discrete financial information evaluated by the CODM for the periods presented included the information for this legacy segment. As of March 31, 2022, the Company operated in 2 reportable segments: Nucleic Acid Production and Biologics Safety Testing.
Net Income per Class A Common Share/UnitShare Attributable to Maravai LifeSciences Holdings, Inc.
Basic net income per Class A Common share/unitshare attributable to Maravai LifeSciences Holdings, Inc. is computed by dividing net income attributable to us by the weighted average number of Class A Common shares/unitsshares outstanding during the period. The non-controlling interest, for historical periods prior to the IPO, is calculated pursuant to the terms of the MLSC LLC Agreement on a fully-distributed basis, taking into account the various classes of equity of MLSC, including the cumulative yields on MLSC’s preferred units. Diluted net income per Class A Common share/unitshare is calculated by giving effect to all potential weighted average dilutive LLC incentive units for historical periods prior to the IPO and stock options, restricted stock units, and Topco LLC Units, that together with an equal number of shares of our Class B common stock (together referred to as “Paired Interests”), are convertible into shares of our Class A Common stock, for the periods after the IPO. For historical periods prior to the IPO, the weighted average number of common units outstanding during the period and the potential dilutive common unit equivalents is determined under the two-class method.stock. The dilutive effect of outstanding awards, if any, is reflected in diluted earnings per share/unitshare by application of the treasury stock method or if-converted method, as applicable. The Company reported net income attributable to Maravai LifeSciences Holdings, Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020.2021.
Contingent Consideration
Contingent consideration represents additional consideration that may be transferred to former owners of an acquired entity in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met. Contingent consideration resulting from the acquisition of a business is recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. Such contingent consideration is re-measured to its estimated fair value at each reporting date with the change in fair value recognized within operating expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are classified as an adjustment to cash flows from operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows because the change in fair value is an input in determining net income. Cash paid in settlement of contingent consideration liabilities are classified as cash flows from financing activities up to the acquisition date fair value with any excess classified as cash flows from operating activities.
Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities associated with the acquisition of a business can result from updates to assumptions such as the expected timing or probability of achieving customer related performance targets, specified sales milestones, changes in projected revenue or changes in discount rates. Judgment is used in determining those assumptions as of the acquisition date and for each subsequent reporting period. Therefore, any changes in the fair value will impact the Company’s results of operations in such reporting period thereby resulting in potential variability in the Company’s operating results until such contingencies are resolved.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company defines fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company follows accounting guidance that has a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of the asset or liability as of the measurement date. Instruments with readily available actively quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices in an orderly market, will generally have a higher degree of market price transparency and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2—Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace; and
Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
As of March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the carrying value of the Company’s current assets and liabilities approximatesapproximated fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments. The fair values of the Company’s long-term debt approximateapproximated carrying value, excluding the effect of unamortized debt discount, as it is based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 inputs).
Acquisitions
The Company evaluates mergers, acquisitions and other similar transactions to assess whether or not the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or an acquisition of assets. The Company first identifies who is the acquiring entity by determining if the target is a legal entity or a group of assets or liabilities. If control over a legal entity is being evaluated, the
15

Table of Contents
Company also evaluates if the target is a variable interest or voting interest entity. For acquisitions of voting interest entities, the Company applies a screen test to determine if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If the screen test is met, the transaction is accounted for as an acquisition of assets. If the screen is not met, further determination is required as to whether or not the Company has acquired inputs and processes that have the ability to create outputs which would meet the definition of a business.
The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of acquired businesses be recorded at their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. The purchase price, which includes the fair value of consideration transferred, is attributed to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The purchase price may also include contingent consideration. The Company assesses whether such contingent consideration is subject to liability classification and fair value measurement or meets the definition of a derivative. Contingent consideration liabilities are recognized at their estimated fair value on the acquisition date. Contingent consideration arrangements that are determined to be compensatory in nature are recognized as post combination expense in our condensed consolidated statements of income ratably over the implied service period beginning in the period it becomes probable such amounts will become payable. The excess of the purchase price of the acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree is recorded as goodwill. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in certain cases may be subject to revision based on the final determination of fair value during a period of time not to exceed twelve months from the acquisition date. The results of acquired businesses are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Transaction costs directly attributable to acquired businesses are expensed as incurred.
Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to use significant judgment and estimates, including the selection of valuation methodologies and assumptions about future net cash flows, discount rates and market participants. Each of these factors can significantly affect the value attributed to the identifiable intangible asset acquired in a business combination.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. The Company maintains the majoritysubstantially all of its cash balances at multiplea financial institutionsinstitution that management believes areis of high credit-quality and is financially stable. Cash is deposited with major financial institutions in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial strength of the depository institutions in which the cash is held. The Company provides credit, in the normal course of business, to international and domestic distributors and customers, which are geographically dispersed. The Company attempts to limit its credit risk by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintaining adequate allowances for potential credit losses.

Retrospective Application of a Change in Accounting Principle
The Company continues to experience strong revenue growth in the Nucleic Acid Production segment, driven by sales of CleanCap® related products which represent a significant portion of the Company’s total revenue in the first fiscal quarter of 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, substantially all of the revenue recorded for Sanofi was generated by our Nucleic Acid Production segment.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act, until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issuedadopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (“TopicASC 842”), which supersedes the guidance in ASCAccounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840, Leases. The new standard, as amended by subsequent ASUs on Topic 842 and recent extensions issued by the FASB in response to COVID-19, requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an(“ASC 840”), effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The Company plans to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company will also adopt certain practical expedients provided by Topic 842.January 1. 2021. As a result of the Company having elected the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBSJumpstart Our Business Startups Act and assumingof 2012, ASC 842 was not adopted until the Company continuesfourth quarter of 2021.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments which has been subsequently amended (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 revises the measurement of credit losses for most financial instruments measured at amortized cost, including trade receivables, from an incurred loss methodology to an expected loss methodology which results in earlier recognition of credit losses. Under the incurred loss model, a loss is not recognized until it is probable that the loss-causing event has already occurred. The new standard introduces a forward-looking expected credit loss model that requires an estimate of the expected credit losses over the life of the instrument by considering all relevant information including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectability. In addition, this standard also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities, which are measured at fair value, by eliminating the consideration for the length of time fair value has been less than amortized cost when assessing credit loss for a debt security and provides for reversals of credit losses through income upon credit improvement.

In November 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832) - Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance (“ASU 2021-10”). ASU 2021-10 provides guidance to increase the transparency of government assistance including the disclosure of: (i) the types of assistance, (ii) an entity’s accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b)for the assistance, and (iii) the effect of the JOBS Act,assistance on an entity’s financial statements. Under the new guidance, an entity is required to provide the following annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy: (i) information about the nature of the transactions and assuming the Company continuesrelated accounting policy used to account for the transactions, (ii) the line items on the balance sheet and income statement that are affected by the transactions, and the amounts applicable to each financial statement line item, and (iii) significant terms and conditions of the transactions, including commitments and contingencies.

The ASU aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred, which requires an acquirer in a hosting arrangement that isbusiness combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. This approach differs from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software.

2.Acquisition
MyChem, LLC
On January 27, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of MyChem, LLC (“MyChem”), a privately-held San Diego, California-based provider of ultra-pure nucleotides to customers in the diagnostics, pharma, genomics and research markets. The acquisition will vertically integrate the Company’s supply chain and expand its product offerings for inputs used in the development of therapeutics and vaccines.
The Company acquired MyChem for a total purchase consideration of $257.8 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments, including a working capital settlement. The total cash consideration paid at closing was $240.0 million using existing cash on itshand. The transaction was accounted for as an acquisition of a business as MyChem consisted of inputs and processes applied to those inputs that had the ability to contribute to the creation of outputs.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company incurred $3.0 million in transaction costs associated with the acquisition of MyChem, which were recorded within selling, general and administrative in the condensed consolidated financial statements.statements of income.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, and therefore, the total purchase price was allocated to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. Purchase consideration in excess of the amounts recognized for the net assets acquired was recognized as goodwill. Goodwill is primarily attributable to expanded synergies expected from the acquisition associated with a vertical supply integration. There were no tax impacts associated with the acquisition due to the pass-through income tax treatment of MyChem. All of the goodwill acquired in connection with the acquisition of MyChem was allocated to the Company’s Nucleic Acid Production segment and is deductible to Topco LLC for income tax purposes.
Upon closing of the acquisition, approximately $1.0 million was placed into escrow to cover potential working capital adjustments and approximately $12.5 million was placed into escrow to secure certain representations and warranties pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement. These amounts are included in the total purchase consideration of $257.8 million. Because these amounts held in escrow are not controlled by the Company, they are not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022.

The trade name and customer relationship intangible assets are related to the MyChem’s name, customer loyalty and customer relationships. The developed technology intangible asset is related to processes and techniques for synthesizing and developing ultra-pure nucleotides. The fair value of these intangible assets was based on MyChem’s projected revenues and were estimated using an income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method. Under the income approach, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of future economic benefits to be derived from ownership of the asset. The estimated fair value was developed by discounting future net cash flows computing variation margin settlements,to their present value at market-based rates of return utilizing Level 3 inputs. The useful lives for these intangible assets was determined based upon the remaining period for which the assets that are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows. Key quantitative assumptions used in the determination of fair value of the developed technology intangible included revenue growth rates ranging from 3.0% to 30.6%, a discount rate of 16.5% and for calculating price alignment interest. ASU 2021-01 is effective beginningan assumed technical obsolescent curve range of 5.0% to 7.5%.
Pursuant to the terms of the MyChem SPA, the Company recognized an indemnification asset of $8.0 million within other assets, which represented the seller’s obligation to reimburse pre-acquisition income tax liabilities assumed in the acquisition, and was recorded within other long-term liabilities.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2021 were insignificant.
Contingent Consideration
In connection with the acquisition of MyChem (see Note 2), the Company is required to make contingent payments to the sellers of up to $40.0 million subject to achieving certain revenue thresholds. The preliminary fair value of the liability for the contingent payments recognized upon the acquisition as part of the purchase accounting opening balance sheet totaled $7.8 million. The preliminary fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation-based model discounted to present value. Assumptions used in this calculation are expected revenue, a discount rate of 16.9% and various probability factors. The ultimate settlement of the contingent consideration could deviate from current estimates based on the actual results of these financial measures. The contingent consideration projected year of payment is 2023. This liability is considered to be a Level 3 financial liability that is remeasured each reporting period. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration are recognized as a gain or loss and recorded within change in estimated fair value of contingent consideration in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

4.Lease Commitments
The Company leases 4 facilities, including office, laboratory and manufacturing space under long-term non-cancelable operating leases. The leased facilities have initial terms of two to twelve, and two leases have multiple five-year renewal terms and the other leases having three-year and five-year renewal terms.
Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, was approximately $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, reported rent expense is net of approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of deferred gain being recognized over the life of the lease associated with the Company’s sale leaseback arrangement for its Burlingame, California facility.
In January 2020, the Company completed the sale of land, building and related building improvements specific to its facility in Burlingame, California for approximately $34.5 million in cash. Simultaneously, with the close of the transaction, the Company leased the property for a two-and-a-half-year period, resulting in a total of $3.3 million in new lease obligations through December 31, 2021. The Company’s sale of the building and immediate leaseback of the facility qualified for sale-leaseback accounting. The lease was evaluated and classified as an operating lease. Given the Company was considered to retain more than a minor part but less than substantially all of the use of the property, the present value of the minimum lease payment over the lease term of $3.1 million was required to be deferred and recognized as a reduction of rent expense over the life of the lease. Net of the $3.1 million in deferred gain, the Company recognized a net gain on the sale of the asset of $19.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. In August 2020, the Company executed a six-month extension for the leased property, including escalating rent payments, with total incremental lease payments associated with the extension of $1.8 million. The unamortized deferred gain at the time of the modification, approximating $2.0 million, is being amortized on a prospective basis over the extended lease term. Upon execution of the amendment inclusive of escalating rent payments, expense is being recognized on a straight-line basis and the difference between the recognized rent expense and the amounts paid under the lease are being recorded as deferred rent included in other short-term and long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
In July 2018, the Company entered into a lease for a new manufacturing facility (the “San Diego Facility Lease”). The lease included tenant improvement provisions for construction prior to occupancy. Construction on this new manufacturing facility began in 2018 and Company evaluated the extent of its financial and operational involvement in the tenant improvements to the San Diego Facility Lease to determine whether it was considered the owner of the construction project. The Company concluded that it was deemed to be the owner of the facility for accounting purposes (even though it did not meet the definition for legal purposes) during the construction period which began in 2018 and was completed in 2019. In 2019, upon completion of the construction, the Company evaluated the lease and concluded that the completed construction project failed to qualify for sale and leaseback accounting and has accounted for the lease as a financing lease transaction. The leased building and related improvements remain on the Company’s balance sheet as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and rental payments associated with the San Diego Facility Lease have been allocated to operating lease expense for the ground underlying the leased building and principal and interest payments on the lease facility financing obligation. The Company recorded the fair value of the building asset and improvements, which was estimated to be $59.0 million and the related lease facility financing obligation of $51.2 million. The difference between the gross asset value and the lease facility financing obligation represents the approximate $8.0 million of building improvement costs reimbursed by the Company.
In September 2020, the Company amended its San Diego Facility lease agreement to provide for additional manufacturing and office space. The amended lease agreement provides for tenant improvements for construction prior to occupancy of $2.7 million, rent concessions, and escalating rent payments over the life of the lease which now expires in May 2030. The total future minimum lease payments under the amended lease agreement are $57.1 million, with an option to renew subject to certain conditions. As of December 31, 2020, the anticipated tenant improvement allowance was recorded as a component of the lease facility financing obligation, a $2.0 million receivable for lessor-funded financing within prepaid and other current
20


assets, and $0.7 million in construction in progress for costs incurred to date as the Company has earned the right to this portion of the tenant allowance as of December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had recognized $20.4 million and $1.7 million in construction in progress and accrued expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company earned the right to the remaining $2.0 million of the tenant allowance and recognized the amount as a component of the expanded space. Construction associated with the expansion was completed and placed into service during the three months ended March 31, 2021. As a result, approximately $21.0 million of cost was reclassified from construction in progress into building, leasehold improvements, and equipment.
The Company recognizes payments under the lease agreement as a reduction of the lease facility financing obligation using the effective interest method and the ground rent as operating lease expense as reflected in the schedule below. Payments on the San Diego Facility Lease obligation for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were approximately $1.0 million and $0.6 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 the Company recognized rent expense associated with the ground lease for the San Diego Facility Lease of approximately $0.2 million in the consolidated statements of income.
The Company is also considered to be the accounting owner of its Southport, North Carolina leased facility (the “Southport Facility”).
In 2017, the Company amended its initial lease with the former related party landlord to include the lease of additional space as well as an adjustment of the base rent for the existing space. The Company continues to recognize payments under the amended lease agreement as a reduction of the facility financing obligation using the effective interest method and the ground rent as operating lease expense as noted in the schedule below. As a result of the amendment, the Company anticipates the repayment of the financing obligation by September 2024. The fair value of the leased property established at acquisition continues to be depreciated over the building’s estimated useful life of thirty-five years. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, payments on these lease obligations and the rent associated with the ground lease for the Southport Facility were not significant.
As of March 31, 2021, minimum annual payments under the Company’s non-cancelable lease agreements and lease financing obligations were follows (in thousands):

Future minimum lease payments for the Vector sale-leaseback for the remaining nine months of fiscal year 2021 and full fiscal year 2022 are $1.2 million and $1.8 million, respectively.
5.6.Long-Term Debt
2020 Credit AgreementsAgreement
In October 2020, Maravai Intermediate Holdings, LLC (“Intermediate”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Topco LLC, along with its subsidiaries (the “New Borrowers”Vector, TriLink and Cygnus (together with Intermediate, the “Borrowers”), entered into a credit agreement (the “New Credit(as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) to refinance existing $400.0 million long-term debt with a new $780.0 million facility. The New Credit Agreement, which provides for a First$600.0 million term loan facility, maturing October 2027 (the “Term Loan”), and a $180.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”).
In August 2021, in conjunction with the Company’s divestiture of the Protein Detection segment, the Company transferred, per the existing terms of the Credit Agreement, the portion of the Term Loan held by Vector of $118.4 million to Intermediate in its entirety. This amount was not assumed by Voyager Group Holdings, Inc., the entity that acquired Vector, as part of the divestiture. Total outstanding debt and loan covenant requirements remained unchanged as a result of the divestiture.
In January 2022, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, among Intermediate, Cygnus, and TriLink, as the borrowers, Topco LLC, as holdings, the lenders from time-to-time party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative and collateral agent (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”). The Company entered into the Amendment to: (i) refinance $544.0 million in aggregate principal amount of first lien term loans initially issued thereunder (the “First Lien Term Loan”) and replace it with a Tranche B Term Loan (the “New First Lien“Tranche B Term Loan”) of $600.0 million, maturing October 2027,; (ii) replace the LIBOR-based interest rate with a Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) based rate; and a(iii) reduce the interest rate margins applicable to the Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility (the New Revolvingunder the Credit Facility”)Agreement. The previous interest rate margin on the facilities was, with respect to each LIBOR-based loan, 3.75% to 4.25% and, with respect to each base rate-based loan, 2.75% to 3.25% (depending, in each case, on consolidated first lien leverage). Following the Amendment, the interest rate margin on the facilities is 3.00%, with respect to each Term SOFR-based loan, and 2.00%, with respect to each base rate-based loan. Further, the Amendment reduces the base rate floor for upthe term loans from 2.00% to $180.0 million in funding. The New1.50%, sets the floor for Term SOFR-based term loans at 0.50% and sets the floor for Term SOFR-based revolving loans at 0.00%. No other significant terms under the Credit Agreement amended and restatedwere changed in connection with the Amendment.

Company’s prior credit agreement as of August 2018 (the “First and Second Lien Credit Agreements”). In November 2020, the Company repaid $50.0 million of principal balance of the New First Lien Term Loan using proceeds from the IPO. The New First Lien Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate equal to the Eurocurrency rate (i.e. the LIBOR rate) plus an applicable rate. The interest rate was 5.25% per annum asAs of March 31, 2021.2022, the interest rate on the Tranche B Term Loan was 3.50% per annum.
The New Credit Agreement also provides for a $20.0 million limit for letters of credit, which remained unused as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.2022.
Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by Topco LLC, together with the existing and future material domestic subsidiaries of Topco LLC (subject to certain exceptions), as specified in the respective guaranty agreements. Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are also secured by a first-priority lien and security interest in substantially all of the assets (subject to certain exceptions) of existing and future material domestic subsidiaries of Topco LLC that are loan parties.
The Newaccounting related to entering into the Amendment was evaluated on a creditor-by-creditor basis to determine whether each transaction should be accounted for as a modification or extinguishment. Certain creditors under the First Lien Term Loan did not participate in this refinancing transaction, were repaid their principal and interest of $8.5 million and ceased being creditors of the Company and the repayment of their related outstanding debt balances has been accounted for as an extinguishment of debt. Proceeds of borrowings from new lenders of $8.5 million were accounted for as a new debt financing. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.2 million in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2022. For the remainder of the creditors, this transaction was accounted for as a modification because the change in present value of cash flows between the 2 term loans before and after the transaction was less than 10% on a creditor-by-creditor basis. As part of the refinancing, the Company incurred $0.9 million of various costs, of which an insignificant amount was related to an original issuance discount, and were all capitalized in the accompanying balance sheet within long-term debt, and are subject to amortization over the term of the refinanced debt as an adjustment to interest expense using the effective interest method.

Table of Contents
We also incurred $0.3 million of financing-related fees related to the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2022, unamortized debt issuance costs totaled $2.8 million and are recorded as assets within other assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as there is no balance outstanding related to the Revolving Credit Facility.
Commencing with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and each fiscal year thereafter, the Credit Agreement requires that we make mandatory prepayments on the Term Loan principal upon certain excess cash flow, subject to certain step-downs based on the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio. The mandatory prepayment shall be reduced to 25% or 0% of the calculated excess cash flow if the first lien net leverage ratio was equal to or less than 4.75:1.00 or 4.25:1.00, respectively, however, no prepayment shall be required to the extent excess cash flow calculated for the respective period is equal to or less than $10.0 million. As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio was less than 4.25:1.00, thus a prepayment was not required.
The Tranche B Term Loan became repayable in quarterly payments of $1.4 million beginning in March 2022, with all remaining outstanding principal due in October 2027. The Tranche B Term Loan includes prepayment provisions that allow the Company, at our option, to repay all or a portion of the principal amount at any time. The Revolving Credit Facility allows the Company to repay and borrow from time to time until October 2025, at which time all amounts borrowed must be repaid. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, we are required to repay borrowings under the Tranche B Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility with the proceeds of certain occurrences, such as the incurrence of debt, certain equity contributions and certain asset sales or dispositions.
Accrued interest under the Credit Agreement is payable by us (a) quarterly in arrears with respect to Base Rate loans, (b) at the end of each interest rate period (or at each three-month interval in the case of loans with interest periods greater than three months) with respect to Term SOFR Rate loans, (c) on the date of any repayment or prepayment and (d) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise). An annual commitment fee is applied to the daily unutilized amount under the Revolving Credit Facility at 0.375% per annum, with one stepdown to 0.25% per annum based on Intermediate’s first lien net leverage ratio.
The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including, among other things, covenants limiting our ability to incur or prepay certain indebtedness, pay dividends or distributions, dispose of assets, engage in mergers and consolidations, make acquisitions or other investments and make changes in the nature of the business. Additionally, the New Credit Agreement also requires us to maintain a certain net leverage ratio. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2021.2022.
Interest Rate Cap

In the first fiscal quarter of 2021, the Company entered into a new interest rate cap agreement to manage a portion of its variable interest rate risk on its outstanding long-term debt. The contract, effective March 31, 2021, entitles the Company to receive from the counterparty at each calendar quarter end the amount, if any, by which a specified defined floating market rate exceeds the cap strike interest rate, applied to the contractscontract’s notional amount of $415.0 million The floating rate of interest is reset at the end of each three month period. The contract expires on March 31, 2023. The interest rate cap agreement has not been designated as a hedging relationship and has been recognized on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value of $0.3$3.7 million within non-current assets with changes in fair value recognized within interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

6.Equity-Based Compensation
In November 2020, in connection with the IPO, the Company’s board of directors adopted the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). All awards granted under the 2020 Plan are intended to be treated as (i) stock options, including incentive stock options (“ISOs”), (ii) stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), (iii) restricted share awards (“RSAs”), (iv) restricted stock units (“RSUs”), (v) dividend equivalents, or (vi) other stock or cash awards as may be determined by the plan’s administrator from time to time. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of each option grant on the date of grant or any other measurement date.
Prior to the IPO, the Company’s parent, MLSH 1, granted unit-based awards to certain executives of the Company in the form of non-vested units. Our controlled subsidiary, MLSC, also granted unit-based awards to certain employees (collectively the “Incentive Units”). All awards of Incentive Units were measured based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. Compensation expense for the Incentive Units is recognized over their requisite service period. The incentive units were subject to a combination of market, service or performance vesting conditions. For Incentive Units subject to performance conditions, the Company evaluated the probability of achieving each performance condition at each reporting date and recognized expense over the requisite service period when it was deemed probable that a performance condition will be met using the accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period. Upon completion of the IPO all of the Incentive Units subject to a performance and market condition became vested.
The following table sets forth the total equity-based compensation expense included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (in thousands):

7.Net Income Per Class A Common Share/UnitShare Attributable to Maravai LifeSciences Holdings, Inc.
Net income per unit for periods prior to our IPO have not been retrospectively adjusted to give effect to the Organizational Transactions described in Note 1 and the 69,000,000 shares of Class A common stock sold in our IPO. Additionally, basicBasic net income per Class A common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2021, has been calculated by dividing net income for the period, adjusted for net income attributable to non-controlling interests, by the weighted average Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per Class A common share gives effect to potentially dilutive securities by application of the treasury stock method or if-converted method, as applicable. Diluted net income per share of Class A common stock attributable to the Company is computed by adjusting the net income and the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding to give effect to potentially diluted securities.
Prior toThe following table presents the Organizational Transactions, the members’ equitycomputation of MLSC was comprised of Class Abasic and Class B preferred units, unit-based awards granted only to certain employees of its subsidiaries (“MLSC Incentive Units”) and MLSC common units, each with participation rights. The MLSC preferred units were entitled to cumulative dividends of 8.0% compounded annually, up to an additional 4.0%, also compounded annually, to the extent of remaining unallocated earnings. The preferred unitholders of MLSC were required, however, to share a portion of the additional 4.0% in dividends with the holders of MLSC Incentive Units based on a formula defined in the MLSC LLC Agreement. The Company determined that vested MLSC Incentive Units and MLSC Class A and B preferred units were participating securities under the two-class method at the MLSC subsidiary level, however, they do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses, and therefore no undistributed losses have been allocated to them. MLSH 1 Incentive Units are granted by the parent of the Company, and as a result, do not represent potential common units of the Company.
In September 2020, the Company entered into a Sale and Rollover Agreement and repurchased a majority of the outstanding MLSC Class B preferred units as well as entered into an agreement that resulted in an exchange of the remaining MLSC Class B preferred units and MLSC common units for MLSH 1 common units in November 2020 upon the IPO.

OurCompany’s effective tax rate of 15.3%15.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0%, primarily due to income associated with the non-controlling interest and an increase in tax expense due to adjustments to the deferred tax assets for our investment in Topco LLC, which is expected to be recovered at lower effective state tax rates.
The provision for income taxes for the period ended March 31, 2020 relates to the corporate operating companies under Maravai LifeSciences Holdings, Inc. as we did not own units in Topco LLC. Our effective tax rate of 13.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to income associated with the non-controlling interest and a discrete tax charge associated with a building sale offset with a release of valuation allowance on our excess interest expense carryforward due to the enactment of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, which modified the calculation of interest deductions for 2019 and 2020.
Tax Distributions to Topco LLC’s Owners
Topco LLC is subject to an operating agreement put in place at the date of the Organizational Transactions.Transactions (“LLC Operating Agreement”). The agreementLLC Operating Agreement has numerous provisions related to allocations of income and loss, as well as timing and amounts of distributions to its owners. This agreement also includes a provision requiring cash distributions enabling its owners to pay their taxes on income passing through from Topco LLC. These tax distributions are computed based on an assumed income tax rate equal to the sum of (i) the maximum combined marginal federal and state income tax rate applicable to an individual and (ii) the net investment income tax. The assumed income tax rate currently totals 46.7%, which may increase to 54.1% in certain cases where the qualified business income deduction is unavailable.
In addition, under the tax rules, Topco LLC is required to allocate taxable income disproportionately to its unit holders. Because tax distributions are determined based on the holder of LLC Units who is allocated the largest amount of taxable income on a per unit basis, but are made pro rata based on ownership, Topco LLC is required to make tax distributions that, in the aggregate, will likely exceed the amount of taxes Topco LLC would have otherwise paid if it were taxed on its taxable income at the assumed income tax rate. Topco LLC is subject to entity level taxation in certain states and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to entity level U.S. and foreign income taxes. As a result, the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income

Drug Development Pipelines
Our financial performance has largely been driven by our customers accelerating their drug development pipelines for cell, geneTrends and RNA therapies. A key factor to our future success will be our ability to provide good manufacturing practices (“GMP”) grade nucleic acids and associated pre-clinical and non-GMP compounds to these customers. Our GMP-grade nucleic acids are manufactured following certain voluntary GMP quality standards and customer specific requirements. We believe these products, including “GMP-grade” materials, are exempt from compliance with the current GMP regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The mRNA and gene editing therapeutics that many of our customers are developing are early in their lifecycle. We expect an increase in demand for our GMP-grade nucleic acids to the extent that our customers have success in their early-phase clinical trials of these therapeutics. New FDA policies, and plans for maximizing the use of expedited programs, may advance the development of cell and gene therapies. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has both fostered increased interest in mRNA as a therapeutic modality for this virus and directed significant resources to developing a base of knowledge for mRNA.
Demand for Outsourced GMP-grade RNA
We believe that growing numbers of RNA therapeutics companies expect to outsource production of pre-clinical and GMP-grade RNA to trusted business partners. Companies are often driven to outsource due to the complex nature of the manufacturing process, faster speeds to market, recent availability of high-quality contract development and manufacturing organizations (“CDMO”) partners, an influx of inexperienced and virtual biopharmaceutical companies, the need for

redundancy of clinical and commercial supply and recent moves to onshore critical supply chains. We offer a number of products and services to meet this demand for outsourced pre-clinical and GMP-grade RNA.
Demand for Outsourced Biologics Safety Testing Products and Assay Development Services
We believe that many biopharmaceutical companies rely on outsourced providers for their biologics safety testing products and assay development needs. Once process development has been completed, biopharmaceutical companies avoid changing biologics safety testing products or providers for fear of affecting the regulatory approval pathway of their therapeutic products. This supports revenue growth for the biologics safety testing products that have been adopted by these companies. We also have long-standing relationships with many of our customers, which are bolstered by the regulatory demands on our customers and the “designed-in” nature of our products and services. A successful partnership with a customer related to the development of their drug leads to repeat business as customers become comfortable with our products. The drug approval process risk is reduced when regulatory bodies are familiar with an impurity detection product vendor and most biopharmaceutical customers are not willing to risk a regulatory issue related to biologics safety testing for their drug program on an unproven vendor. It is therefore critical to our success that our products and services be “designed-in” at the outset, especially to the most promising product candidates.Uncertainties
COVID-19 Considerations and Business Update
The global COVID-19 pandemic has created significant uncertainty, volatility and economic disruption in the markets we operate. We have responded to the pandemic by leveraging our deep product portfolio and general scientific expertise to develop robust COVID-19-related product and service offerings providing critical support for the development of therapeutics, vaccines and diagnostics.
While ourOur results of operations and cash flows have been positively impacted by the continued strong demand for COVID-19 related products and services, including our proprietary CleanCap® CleanCap® analogs and ongoing demand for highly modified RNA products, particularly mRNA,mRNA. Continued COVID-19-related demand for these products and services, which comprised the majority of our revenue for the recent periods, may contract considerably if the COVID-19 pandemic subsides and consumer demand for COVID-19 vaccines declines. Such a contraction in demand could have a material impact on our operating results, cash flows and financial condition in the future. Other effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could still have an adverse impact on our operating results, cash flows and financial condition in the future. The factors that could cause such adverse impact include: the severityemergence, duration and duration of the pandemic; the emergenceintensity of new virus variants; continued demand for COVID-19 vaccines; competition faced by our customers from other COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers;manufacturers or developers of alternative treatments; the availability and administration of pediatric and booster vaccinations, vaccine supply constraints, vaccine hesitancy and the effectiveness of vaccines against new virus strains; and the U.S. economy and global economy;economy, including impacts resulting from supply chain constraints, labor market shortages and inflationary pressures.
Other Trends and Uncertainties
Biopharmaceutical customers are increasingly relying on outside parties to provide important inputs and services for their clinical research and manufacturing, a development driving growth for suppliers with unique capabilities and the timing, scopeability to manufacture at an appropriate scale to support customer programs. We believe that suppliers like ourselves, with this rare combination of capabilities, proprietary products and effectivenessthe required investment in manufacturing and quality systems, are benefiting from rapid growth as biopharmaceutical customers seek to partner with a small number of U.S. and international governmental, regulatory, fiscal, monetary and public health responsestrusted suppliers. In addition to the COVID-19 pandemiccontinued trend toward outsourcing, several market developments are driving increased growth, in our addressable market segments, including: (i) pivot toward mRNA vaccines driven in part by COVID-19; (ii) rapid growth in development of cell and associated economic disruptions.
In response to the spreadgene therapies; (iii) large and growing pipeline of COVID-19,protein-based therapeutics; and (iv) rise in accordance with direction from state and local government authorities, we have been and continue to restrict access to our facilities mostly to personnel and third parties who must perform critical activities that are required to be completed on-site, limit the number of such personnel that can be present at our facilities at any one time, and request that some of our personnel work remotely. In the event that government authorities were to further modify current restrictions, our employees conducting research and development, or manufacturing activities may not be able to access our laboratory or manufacturing space, and our core activities may be significantly limited or curtailed, possibly for an extended period of time.
We remain fully operational as we abidemolecular diagnostics driven by local COVID-19 safety regulations across the world. To achieve this, we have had and continue to have many employees working remotely and have adopted significant protective measures for our employees on site, including conducting weekly COVID-19 testing, staggered shifts, social distancing and hygiene best practices recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (the “CDC”) and local public health officials. In addition, we have taken steps to monitor and strengthen our supply chain to maintain an uninterrupted supply of our critical products and services.COVID-19.
How We Assess Our Business
We consider a variety of financial and operating measures in assessing the performance of our business. The key measures we use to determine how our business is performing are revenue and Adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization and equity-based compensation expenses. Adjusted EBITDA reflects further adjustments to eliminate the impact of certain items, including certain non-cash and other items, that we do not consider representative of our ongoing operating performance. We also present Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP measure that we define as Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures.
30

Table of Contents
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the financial performance of our business and the effectiveness of our business strategies. We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow because we believe they are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry and they facilitate comparisons on a
31


consistent basis across reporting periods. Further, we believe they are helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results because they exclude items that are not indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also a component of the financial covenant under our new credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) that governs our ability to access more than $63.0 million in aggregate letters of credit obligations and outstandingavailable borrowings under our new revolving credit facility (the “New Revolving Credit Facility”).facility. In addition, if we borrow more than $63.0 million, we are required to maintain a specified net leverage ratio. See Liquidity and Capital Resources—Sources of Liquidity—Debt Covenants” below for a discussion of this financial covenant.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. We may in the future incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. In particular, we expect to incur meaningful share-based compensation expense in the future. Other limitations include that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow do not reflect:
all expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
changes in our working capital needs;
provision for income taxes, which may be a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;
the costs of replacing the assets being depreciated, which will often have to be replaced in the future;
the non-cash component of employee compensation expense; and
the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be reflective, on a recurring basis, of our ongoing operations.
In addition, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry or across different industries.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
Our revenue consists primarily of product revenue and, to a much lesser extent, service revenue from royalties attributable to the out-licensing of our proprietary biological assets intellectual property that we may develop.revenue. We generated total consolidated revenue of $148.2$244.3 million and $51.0$148.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively, through the following segments: (i) Nucleic Acid Production, (ii) Biologics Safety Testing and (iii) Protein Detection. We divested our Protein Detection segment in September 2021, and since then operate two business segments only, Nucleic Acid Production and Biologics Safety Testing.
Nucleic Acid Production Segment
Our Nucleic Acid Production segment focuses on the manufacturing and sale of highly modified nucleic acids products to support the needs of customers’ research, therapeutic and vaccine programs. This segment also provides research products for labeling and detecting proteins in cells and tissue samples.
Biologics Safety Testing Segment
Our Biologics Safety Testing segment focuses on manufacturing and selling biologics safety and impurity tests and assay development services that are utilized by our customers in their biologic drug manufacturing activities.
Protein Detection Segment
Our Protein Detection segment products, which includeincluded a portfolio of labeling and visual detection reagents, arewere purchased by our scientific research customers for their tissue-based protein detection and characterization needs. In September 2021, we completed the divestiture of Vector Laboratories, Inc. and subsidiaries (“Vector”), which made up our Protein Detection segment.

Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Information
Management has determined that adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization is the profit or loss measure used to make resource allocation decisions and evaluate segment performance. Adjusted EBITDA assists management in comparing the segment performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision-making by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the core operations and, therefore, are not included in measuring segment performance. Corporate costs are managed on a standalone basis and not allocated to segments.
We do not allocate assets to our reportable segments as they are not included in the review performed by our Chief Operating Decision Maker for purposes of assessing segment performance and allocating resources.

Relationship with GTCR, LLC (“GTCR”)
Prior to our initial public offering (“IPO”), we utilized GTCR for certain services pursuant to an advisory services agreement. Under this agreement, GTCR provided us with financial and management consulting services in the areas of corporate strategy, budgeting for future corporate investments, acquisition and divestiture strategies, and debt and equity financings. The advisory services agreement provided that we pay a $0.1 million quarterly management fee to GTCR for these services. We also reimbursed GTCR for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while providing these services. The advisory services agreement also provided that certain of our subsidiaries pay placement fees to GTCR of 1.0% of the gross amount of debt or equity financings. In connection with our IPO, this advisory services agreement was terminated.
As GTCR continues to have representation on our Board of Directors, we will continue to pay GTCR for any direct reimbursable expenses related to the activities oftheir Board members affiliated with GTCR.
activities. We paid GTCR insignificant amounts induring each of the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020, respectively, for services in connection with the advisory services agreement.2021. We may continue to engage GTCR from time to time, subject to compliance with our related party transactions policy.
InDuring the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we paid amade distributions of $39.9 million and $23.1 million, distributionrespectively, for tax liabilities to MLSH 1.1, which is primarily owned by GTCR.
Concurrent with our IPO, we entered intoWe are also a tax receivable agreementparty to a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) with MLSH 1, who is primarily owned by GTCR, and MLSH 2.2 (see Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). The Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”)TRA provides for the payment by us to MLSH 1 and MLSH 2, collectively, of 85.0% of the amount of tax benefits, if any, that we actually realize, or in some circumstances are deemed to realize, as a result of the Organizational Transactions and IPO. Payment obligations under the TRA are not conditioned upon any Topco LLC unitholders maintaining a continued ownership interest in us or Topco LLC and the rights of MLSH 1 and MLSH 2 under the TRA are assignable. There is no maximum term for the TRA and the TRA will continue until all tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless we exercise our right to terminate the TRA for an agreed-upon amount.
No payments were made to MLSH 1 or MLSH 2 pursuant to the TRA during 2021. As of March 31, 2021, our liability under the TRA was $383.7 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
As of March 31, 2021, we had cash of $247.7 million and; retained earnings of $24.1 million, and net income of $75.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. We also had positive cash flow from operations of $38.7 million.
38


We have relied on revenue derived from product and services sales and equity and debt financings to fund our operations to date. Our principal uses of cash have been to fund operations, acquisitions and capital expenditures, interest payments and mandatory principal payments on our long-term debt, as well as make distributions to MLSH 1.
We plan to utilize our existing cash on hand, together with cash generated from operations, primarily to fund our commercial and marketing activities associated with our products and services, continued research and development initiatives, and ongoing investments into our manufacturing facilities to create efficiencies and build capacity.
In addition, with the completion of the IPO, we are obligated to make payments under the TRA we entered into with MLSH 1 and MLSH 2. Although the actual amount and timing of any payments that we make under the TRA will vary, we expect that those payments will be significant. Any payments we make under the TRA will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to us and, to the extent that we are unable to make payments under the TRA for any reason, the unpaid amount generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid by us.
In addition to payments to be made under the TRA, we are also required to make distributions for tax liabilities to the non-controlling interest holders of Topco LLC for the portion of income passing through to them from Topco LLC.
Sources of Liquidity
Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily from the issuance of equity, borrowings under long-term debt agreements and, to a lesser extent, cash flow from operations.
Our total debt outstanding of $548.5 million at March 31, 2021, was comprised of our First Lien Term Loan. We had no outstanding borrowings under our New Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2021.
New Credit Agreement
On October 19, 2020, Maravai Intermediate Holdings, LLC (“Intermediate”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours, along with its subsidiaries Vector Laboratories, TriLink BioTechnologies and Cygnus Technologies (together with Intermediate, the “Borrowers”) entered into the New Credit Agreement with lending institutions, for term-loan borrowings (the “New First Lien Term Loan”) totaling $600.0 million to refinance our outstanding senior secured credit facilities and to allow for a distribution to our members. The New Credit Agreement also provided for a revolving credit facility (the “New Revolving Credit Facility”) of $180.0 million for letters of credit and loans to be used for working capital and other general corporate financing purposes. Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by Topco LLC, along with the existing and future material domestic subsidiaries of Topco LLC (subject to certain exceptions) as specified in the respective guaranty agreements, and are secured by a lien and security interest in substantially all of the assets of existing and future material domestic subsidiaries of Topco LLC that are loan parties. The New First Lien Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate equal to the Eurocurrency rate (i.e. the LIBOR rate) plus an applicable rate. The interest rate was 5.25% per annum as of March 31, 2021
The New Term Loan becomes repayable in quarterly payments of $1.5 million beginning on March 31, 2021, with all remaining outstanding principal due on October 19, 2027. The New Term Loan includes prepayment provisions that allow the us, at their option, to repay all or a portion of the principal amount at any time. The New Revolving Credit Facility allows the us to repay and borrow from time to time until October 19, 2025, at which time all amounts borrowed must be repaid. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, we are required to repay borrowings under the New Term Loan and New Revolving Credit Facility with the proceeds of certain occurrences, such as the incurrence of debt, certain equity contributions, and certain asset sales or dispositions.
Accrued interest under the New Credit Agreement is payable by us (a) quarterly in arrears with respect to Base Rate loans, (b) at the end of each interest rate period (or at each three-month interval in the case of loans with interest periods greater than three months) with respect to Eurocurrency Rate loans, (c) on the date of any repayment or prepayment and (d) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise). An annual commitment fee is applied to the daily unutilized amount under the New Revolving Credit Facility at 0.375% per annum, with one stepdown to 0.25% per annum based on Intermediate’s first lien net leverage ratio.
Debt Covenants
The New Credit Agreement includes a financial covenant that requires that, if as of the end of any fiscal quarter the aggregate amount of letters of credit obligations and borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility outstanding as of the end of such fiscal quarter (excluding cash collateralized letters of credit obligations and letter of credit obligations in an aggregate amount not in excess of $5.0 million at any time outstanding and for the first four fiscal quarters ending after October 19, 2020, borrowings of revolving credit loans made on October 19, 2020) exceed 35% of the aggregate amount of all Revolving Credit
39


Commitments in effect as of such date, or $63.0 million, then the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio of Intermediate shall not be greater than 8.00 to 1.00. For purposes of this covenant, the net leverage ratio is calculated by dividing outstanding first lien indebtedness (net of cash) by Adjusted EBITDA over the preceding four fiscal quarters.
The New Credit Agreement also contains negative and affirmative covenants in addition to the financial covenant, including covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things, incur or prepay certain indebtedness, pay dividends or distributions, dispose of assets, engage in mergers and consolidations, make acquisitions or other investments, and make changes in the nature of the business. The New Credit Agreement contains certain events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment of principal, interest or other obligations, violation of the covenants, insolvency, court ordered judgments, and certain changes of control. The New Credit Agreement also requires the Company to provide audited consolidated financial statements to the lenders no later than 120 days after year-end.
As of March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with the covenants under the New Credit Agreement.
The New Credit Agreement also requires mandatory prepayments upon certain excess cash flow, subject to certain step-downs and threshold levels as defined and set forth in the terms of the New Credit Agreement to commence with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.
Tax Receivable Agreement
In connection with the completion of our IPO we also entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement with MLSH 1 and MLSH 2. The Tax Receivable Agreement provides for the payment by us to MLSH 1 and MLSH 2, collectively, of 85% of the amount of tax benefits, if any, that we actually realize, or in some circumstances are deemed to realize, from exchanges of LLC Units (together with the corresponding shares of Class B common stock) for Class A common stock, as a result of (i) certain increases in the tax basis of assets of Topco LLC and its subsidiaries resulting from purchases or exchanges of LLC Units, (ii) certain tax attributes of the entities acquired from MLSH 1 and MLSH 2 in connection with the Organizational Transactions, (“the Blocker Entities”), Topco LLC and subsidiaries of Topco LLC that existed prior to this offeringthe IPO, and (iii) certain other tax benefits related to our entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement,TRA, including tax benefits attributable to payments that we make under the Tax Receivable AgreementTRA (collectively, the “Tax Attributes”). Payment obligations under the TRA are not conditioned upon any Topco LLC unitholders maintaining a continued ownership interest in us or Topco LLC, and the rights of MLSH 1 and MLSH 2 under the TRA are assignable. There is no stated term for the TRA, and the TRA will continue until all tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless we exercise our right to terminate the TRA for an agreed-upon amount.
No payments were made to MLSH 1 or MLSH 2 pursuant to the TRA during the three months ended March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2021,2022, our liability under the TRA was $383.7$746.0 million.

Table of Contents
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We have financed our operations primarily from cash flow from operations, borrowings under long-term debt agreements and, to a lesser extent, the sale of our Class A common stock.
As of March 31, 2022, we had cash of $431.5 million and retained earnings of $251.4 million. We also had net income of $146.9 million and positive cash flows from operations of $162.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
We have relied on revenue derived from product and services sales, and equity and debt financings to fund our operations to date.
Our principal uses of cash have been to fund operations, acquisitions and capital expenditures, as well as make tax distributions to MLSH 1, make TRA payments to MLSH 1 and MLSH 2 as well as make interest payments and mandatory principal payments on our long-term debt.
We plan to utilize our existing cash on hand, together with cash generated from operations, primarily to fund our commercial and marketing activities associated with our products and services, continued research and development initiatives, and ongoing investments into our manufacturing facilities to create efficiencies and build capacity. We believe our cash on hand, cash generated from operations and continued access to our credit facilities, will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements over the next 12 months and beyond.
To the extent revenue from sales in our two remaining business segments continues to grow, we expect our accounts receivable and inventory balances to increase. Any increase in accounts receivable and inventory may not be completely offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses, which could result in greater working capital requirements. Moreover, we have and will continue to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company, including expenses related to legal, accounting, regulatory, exchange listing and regulatory compliance matters.
As a result of our ownership of LLC Units in Topco LLC, the Company is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes with respect to its allocable share of any taxable income of Topco LLC and is taxed at the prevailing corporate tax rates. In addition to tax expenses, we also will incur expenses related to our operations and we will be required to make payments under the TRA with MLSH 1 and MLSH 2. Due to the uncertainty of various factors, we cannot precisely quantify the likely tax benefits we will realize as a result of LLC Unit exchanges and the resulting amounts we are likely to pay out to LLC Unitholders of Topco LLC pursuant to the TRA; however, we estimate that such payments may be substantial. Assuming no changes in the relevant tax law, and that we earn sufficient taxable income to realize all tax benefits that are subject to the TRA, we expect that future payments under the TRA relating to the purchase by the Company of LLC Units from MLSH 1 and the tax attributes to be approximately $746.0 million and to range over the next 15 years from approximately $34.7 million to $63.0 million per year and decline thereafter. Future payments in respect of subsequent exchanges or financings would be in addition to these amounts and are expected to be substantial. The foregoing numbers are estimates and the actual payments could differ materially. We expect to fund these payments using cash on hand and cash generated from operations.
As a result of a change of control, material breach, or our election to terminate the TRA early, (1) we could be required to make cash payments to MLSH 1 and MLSH 2 that are greater than the specified percentage of the actual benefits we ultimately realize in respect of the tax benefits that are subject to the TRA and (2) we will be required to make an immediate cash payment equal to the present value of the anticipated future tax benefits that are the subject of the TRA, which payment may be made significantly in advance of the actual realization, if any, of such future tax benefits. In these situations, our obligations under the TRA could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combination, or other changes of control. There can be no assurance that we will be able to adequately finance our payment obligations under the TRA.
In addition to payments to be made under the TRA, we are also required to make tax distributions to MLSH 1 pursuant to the LLC Operating Agreement for the portion of income passing through to them from Topco LLC.
Credit Agreement
The Credit Agreement provides us with a term-loan facility (the “Term Loan”) totaling $600.0 million and a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) of $180.0 million for letters of credit and loans to be used for working capital and other general corporate financing purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by Topco LLC, along with the existing and future material domestic subsidiaries of Topco LLC (subject to certain exceptions) as specified in the respective guaranty agreements, and are secured by a lien and security interest in substantially all of the assets of existing and future material domestic subsidiaries of Topco LLC that are loan parties.

In January 2022, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, among Intermediate, Cygnus and TriLink, as the borrowers, Topco LLC, as holdings, the lenders from time-to-time party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative and collateral agent (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”). The Company entered into the Amendment to: (i) refinance the existing $544.0 million aggregate principal balance on the First Lien Term Loan and replace it with a new Tranche B Term Loan (“Tranche B Term Loan”), (ii) replace the LIBOR-based interest rate with a Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) based rate, and (iii) reduce the interest rate margins applicable to the Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facilities under the Credit Agreement. The previous interest rate margin on the facilities was, with respect to each LIBOR-based loan, 3.75% to 4.25% and, with respect to each base rate-based loan, 2.75% to 3.25% (depending, in each case, on consolidated first lien leverage). Following the Amendment, the interest rate margin on the facilities is 3.00%, with respect to each Term SOFR-based loan, and 2.00%, with respect to each base rate-based loan. Further, the Amendment reduced the base rate floor for the term loans from 2.00% to 1.50%, sets the floor for Term SOFR-based term loans at 0.50% and sets the floor for Term SOFR-based revolving loans at 0.00%. No other significant terms under the Credit Agreement were changed in connection with the Amendment.
The Base Rate is defined in the Credit Agreement as the greatest of (i) the rate last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the “Prime Rate” in the United States, (ii) the NYFRB Rate plus 0.50% per annum, (iii) the Term SOFR Rate for a one month interest period plus 1.00% per annum, (iv) solely with respect to the Tranche B term loans, 1.50% per annum and (v) for any loans that are not Tranche B term loans, 1.00% per annum. The “Term SOFR Rate,” as defined in the Credit Agreement, means with respect to any Term SOFR Rate Borrowing and for any other tenor comparable to the applicable interest period, the Term SOFR Reference Rate at approximately 5:00 a.m., Chicago time, two U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the commencement of such tenor comparable to the applicable interest period, as such rate is published by the CME Term SOFR Administrator; provided that in no event shall the Term SOFR Rate for any interest period (i) for Term B Loans be less than 0.50% or (ii) for any other Loans, be less than 0.00%.
The Tranche B Term Loan became repayable in quarterly payments of $1.4 million beginning in March 2022, with all remaining outstanding principal due in October 2027. The Tranche B Term Loan includes prepayment provisions that allow us, at our option, to repay all or a portion of the principal amount at any time. The Revolving Credit Facility allows us to repay and borrow from time to time until October 2025, at which time all amounts borrowed must be repaid. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, we are required to repay borrowings under the Tranche B Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility with the proceeds of certain occurrences, such as the incurrence of debt, certain equity contributions and certain asset sales or dispositions.
Commencing with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and each fiscal year thereafter, the Credit Agreement requires that we make mandatory prepayments on the Term Loan principal upon certain excess cash flow, subject to certain step-downs based on the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio. The mandatory prepayment shall be reduced to 25% or 0% of the calculated excess cash flow if the first lien net leverage ratio was equal to or less than 4.75:1.00 or 4.25:1.00, respectively, however, no prepayment is required to the extent excess cash flow calculated for the respective period is equal to or less than $10.0 million. As of March 31, 2022, our first lien net leverage ratio was less than 4.25:1.00, thus a prepayment was not required.
Accrued interest under the Credit Agreement is payable by us (a) quarterly in arrears with respect to Base Rate loans, (b) at the end of each interest rate period (or at each three-month interval in the case of loans with interest periods greater than three months) with respect to Term SOFR Rate loans, (c) on the date of any repayment or prepayment and (d) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise). An annual commitment fee is applied to the daily unutilized amount under the Revolving Credit Facility at 0.375% per annum, with one stepdown to 0.25% per annum based on Intermediate’s first lien net leverage ratio.
Debt Covenants
The Credit Agreement includes a financial covenant that requires that, if as of the end of any fiscal quarter the aggregate amount of letters of credit obligations and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility outstanding as of the end of such fiscal quarter (excluding cash collateralized letters of credit obligations and letter of credit obligations in an aggregate amount not in excess of $5.0 million at any time outstanding and for the first four fiscal quarters ending after October 2020, borrowings of revolving credit loans made before October 2020) exceeds 35% of the aggregate amount of all Revolving Credit Commitments in effect as of such date, then the net leverage ratio of Intermediate may not be greater than 8.00 to 1.00. For purposes of this covenant, the net leverage ratio is calculated by dividing outstanding first lien indebtedness (net of cash) by Adjusted EBITDA over the preceding four fiscal quarters.
The Credit Agreement also contains negative and affirmative covenants in addition to the financial covenant, including covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things, incur or prepay certain indebtedness, pay dividends or distributions, dispose of assets, engage in mergers and consolidations, make acquisitions or other investments, and make changes in the nature of the business. The Credit Agreement contains certain events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment of

Table of Contents
principal, interest or other obligations, violation of the covenants, insolvency, court ordered judgments and certain changes of control. The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to provide audited consolidated financial statements to the lenders no later than 120 days after year-end.
The Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant (consolidated first lien leverage ratio) measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with these covenants.
As of March 31, 2022, interest rate on the Tranche B Term Loan was 3.50%.
Tax Receivable Agreement
We are a party to the TRA with MLSH 1 and MLSH 2. The TRA provides for the payment by us to MLSH 1 and MLSH 2, collectively, of 85% of the amount of certain tax benefits, if any, that we actually realize, or in some circumstances are deemed to realize, as a result of the Organizational Transactions, IPO and any subsequent purchases or exchanges of LLC Units of Topco LLC. Based on our current projections of taxable income, and before deduction of any specially allocated depreciation and amortization, we anticipate having enough taxable income to utilize most of these tax benefits.
As of March 31, 2022, our liability under the TRA was $746.0 million, representing 85% of the calculated tax savings we anticipated being able to utilize in future years. We may record additional liabilities under the TRA when LLC Units are exchanged in the future and as our estimates of the future utilization of the tax attributes,Tax Attributes, NOLs and other tax benefits change. We expect to make payments under the TRA, to the extent they are required, within 125 days after the extended due date of our U.S. federal income tax return for such taxable year. Interest on such payment will begin to accrue from the due date (without extensions) of such tax return at a rate of LIBOR plus 100 basis points. Any late payments will continue to accrue interest at LIBOR plus 500 basis points until such payments are made.
In April 2021, we completed a secondary offering in which certain stockholders sold an aggregate of 20,700,000 shares of our Class A common stock at a public offering price of $31.25 per share. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares. The offering also included exchange of 17,665,959 LLC units (paired with the corresponding shares of Class B common stock) for Class A common stock by certain selling stockholders.
The payment obligations under the TRA are obligations of Maravai LifeSciences Holdings, Inc. and not of Topco LLC. Although the actual timing and amount of any payments that may be made under the TRA will vary, we expect that the aggregate payments that we will be required to make to MLSH 1 and MLSH 2 will be substantial. Any payments made by us under the TRA will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to us or to Topco LLC and, to the extent that we are unable to make payments under the TRA for any reason, the unpaid amounts will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid by us. We anticipate funding ordinary course payments under the Tax Receivable AgreementTRA from cash flow from operations of Topco LLC and its subsidiaries, available cash and/or available borrowings under the New Credit Agreement.

Tax distributions are required under the terms of the Topco LLC Agreement. See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding tax distributions.
Commencing with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and each fiscal year thereafter, the Credit Agreement requires that we make mandatory prepayments of the Term Loan principal upon certain excess cash flow, subject to certain step-downs based on our first lien net leverage ratio. The mandatory prepayment shall be reduced to 25% or 0% of the calculated excess cash flow if the first lien net leverage ratio was equal to or less than 4.75:1.00 or 4.25:1.00, respectively, however, no prepayment shall be required to the extent excess cash flow calculated for the respective period is equal to or less than $10.0 million. As of March 31, 2021,2022, our first lien net leverage ratio is less than 4.25:1.00.
In connection with our acquisition of MyChem, we didmay be required to make certain payments to its sellers. We may be required to make additional payments of up to $40.0 million to the sellers of MyChem dependent upon meeting or exceeding defined revenue targets during fiscal 2022. We may also be required to make certain payments of $20.0 million to them as of the second anniversary of the closing of the acquisition date as long as the sellers of MyChem continue to be employed by TriLink.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our interim condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect
41


the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions 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 differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such difference may be material. For a discussion of how these and other factors may affect our business, financial condition or results of operations, see “Risk“Item 1A. Risk Factors” described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.2021.
The critical accounting estimates that we believe affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this report are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. There2021. Except as noted below, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates from those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.2021.
Recognition of Intangible Assets as Part of a Business Combination
The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of acquired businesses be recorded at their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. The purchase price, which includes the fair value of consideration transferred, is attributed to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The excess of the purchase price of the acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree is recorded as goodwill.
Determining the fair value of intangible assets acquired requires management to use significant judgment and estimates, including the selection of valuation methodologies, assumptions about future net cashflows, discount rates and market participants. Each of these factors can significantly affect the value attributed to the identifiable intangible asset acquired in a business combination.
We generally utilize a discounted cash flow method under the income approach to estimate the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. For the acquisition of MyChem, LLC, the estimated fair value of the developed technology intangible asset was based on the multi-period excess earnings method. The estimated fair value was developed by discounting future net cash flows to their present value at market-based rates of return. We selected the assumptions used in the financial forecasts using historical data, supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions, estimated revenue growth rates, management’s plans, and guideline companies. Some of the more significant assumptions inherent in estimating the fair value of this intangible asset included revenue growth rates ranging from 3.0% to 30.6%, technical obsolescent curves ranging from 5.0% to 7.5%, and a discount rate of 16.5%.

The use of alternative estimates and assumptions could increase or decrease the estimated fair value and amounts allocated to identifiable intangible assets acquired and future amortization expense as well as goodwill.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For a description of the expected impact of recent accounting pronouncements, see “Note 1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies” inNote 1 to the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

JOBS Act Accounting Election
We are an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the JOBS Act. The JOBS Act permits an emerging growth company like us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We are electing to use this extended transition period and we will therefore comply with new or revised accounting standards on the earlier of (i) when they apply to private companies; or (ii) when we lose our emerging growth company status. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable with companies that comply with public company effective dates for accounting standards. We also rely on other exemptions provided by the JOBS Act, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act unless we cease to be an emerging growth company.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (1) December 31, 2025, (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, (3) the last day of the fiscal year in which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our Class A common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700.0 million as of the last business day of the second fiscal quarter of such year or (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
As of March 31, 2021,2022, our primary exposure to interest rate risk was associated with our variable rate long-term debt. The NewBorrowings under our Credit Agreement bear interest subjectat a rate equal to the Base Rate plus a margin of 2.00%, with respect to each Base Rate-based loan, or the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate.Term SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate) plus a margin of 3.00% with respect to each Term SOFR-based loan, subject in each case to an applicable Base Rate or Term SOFR floor (see Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Interest rates can fluctuate for a number of reasons, including changes in the fiscal and monetary policies or geopolitical events or changes in general economic conditions. This could adversely affect our cash flows.
As of March 31, 2021,2022, we have an interest rate cap agreement in place to hedge a portion of our variable interest rate risk on our outstanding long-term debt. The agreement has a contract notional amount of $415.0 million and entitles us to receive from the counterparty at each calendar quarter end the amount, if any, by which a specified floating market rate exceeds the cap strike interest rate. The floating interest rate is reset at the end of each calendar quarter end. The contract expires on March 31, 2023.
We had $548.5$542.6 million of outstanding borrowings under our New First LienTranche B Term Loan and no outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2021.2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2021,2022, the effect of a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in overall interest rates would have changed our interest expense by approximately $1.4 million.
We had cash of $247.7$431.5 million as of March 31, 2021.2022. Our cash is held in demand deposits and is not subject to market risk.

Foreign Currency Risk
The majorityAll of our revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars; however,dollars. Although approximately 47.2%64.4% of our revenue was derived from international sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021,2022 was derived from international sales, primarily in Europe and Asia Pacific. However, only ourPacific, none of these sales in the United Kingdom are denominated in local currency. Our remaining international sales are denominated in the U.S. dollar. OurThe majority of our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which they are incurred, which is primarily in the United States and, to a lesser extent, the United Kingdom.States. As we expand our presence in international markets, to the extent we are required to enter into agreements denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar, results of operations and cash flows may increasingly be subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. To date, we have not entered into any hedging arrangements with respect to foreign currency risk. As our international operations grow, we will continue to reassess our approach to manage our risk relating to fluctuations in currency rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 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 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As permitted by applicable SEC guidance, the scope of our evaluation regarding changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2022 excluded internal control over financial reporting for MyChem, LLC, which we acquired on January 27, 2022, as we are still in the process of integrating its internal control over financial reporting into our existing operations as part of our planned integration activities. There have beenwere no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the three months ended March 31, 20212022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may be involved in various legal proceedings and subject to claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims are inherently unpredictable and uncertain, we are not currently a party to any legal proceedings the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, are believed to, either individually or taken together, have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition. Regardless of the outcome, litigation has the potential to have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Other than the addition of the risk factor set forth below to “Risk Factors—Risks Related to our Intellectual PropertyBusiness and Technology”Strategy”, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Risks Related to Our Intellectual PropertyBusiness and TechnologyStrategy
The extent and duration of our revenue associated with COVID-19 related products and services are uncertain and are dependent, in important respects, on factors outside our control.
If weCertain of our products, including our proprietary CleanCap® analogs, are prevented from enforcingused by our intellectual property rights because of governmental regulatory policies or political pressure or action, our sales and profitability may be materially adversely affected.
Our ability to maintain and grow our product sales and profitability depends,customers in part, on our ability to maintain and enforce our patents and other intellectual property rights. Recent political statements and proposed actions against the enforcement of intellectual property related to COVID-19 vaccines, such as the announcement by the United States Trade Representative on May 5, 2021, that the United States will support negotiations at the World Trade Organization related to waiver of certain unspecified intellectual property protections for COVID-19 vaccines, may impact our ability to fully assert our intellectual property rights related to our CleanCap product in connection with the production of COVID-19 vaccines. Further, these policy actionsThe evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting global public health response may complicateaffect continued demand for our analysisCOVID-19 related products and decision-making with respectservices, which have comprised the majority of our revenue in recent periods. More specifically, the ongoing manufacture and supply of COVID-19 vaccines (including potential booster doses) by our customers is uncertain and subject to both researchvarious political, social, economic, and regulatory factors that are outside of our control, including the duration of the pandemic; emerging information concerning the severity and incidence of the virus and its variants; the emergence of additional virus variants; regional resurgences of the virus globally; the rate at which the population globally becomes vaccinated against COVID-19; the development and capital investment, givenavailability of antiviral therapeutic alternatives; and political and social debate relating to the potentialneed for, lower returnsefficacy of, or side effects related to one or more specific COVID-19 vaccines. To the extent that the supply and manufacture of COVID-19 vaccines by our customers slows or becomes no longer necessary, demand for our products and services could significantly decrease, which would have a material adverse effect on those investments that could result from our inability to fully protect our intellectual property. If we are unable to successfully navigate these considerations, the future revenuesrevenue, results of operations and profitability of our business could be negatively impacted. We are unable to estimate the impact of these potential policies given that they remain undefined and their adoption is uncertain.
