PRECIPIO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Business Description.

Precipio, Inc., and its subsidiaries, (collectively, “we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or “Precipio”) is a cancer diagnostics company providing diagnostic products and services to the oncology market. We have built and continue to develop a platform designed to eradicate the problem of misdiagnosis by harnessing the intellect, expertise and technologies developed within academic institutions, and delivering quality diagnostic information to physicians and their patients worldwide. We operate a cancer diagnostic laboratory located in New Haven, Connecticut and have partnered with various academic institutions to capture the expertise, experience and technologies developed within academia to provide a better standard of cancer diagnostics and aim to solve the growing problem of cancer misdiagnosis. We also operate a research and development facility in Omaha, Nebraska which focuses on development of various technologies, among them IV-Cell, HemeScreen and ICE-COLD-PCR, or ICP, the patented technology described further below, which we exclusively licensed from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc., or Dana-Farber, at Harvard University. The research and development center focuses on the development of these technologies, which we believe will enable us to commercialize these and other technologies developed with our current and future academic partners. The facility in Omaha was also recently certified as a CLIA and CAP facility, and we have begun bringing in house several molecular tests that the Company had previously referred out to other laboratories. Our platform also connects patients, physicians and diagnostic experts residing within academic institutions.

Joint Venture.

In April 2020, the Company formed a joint venture with Poplar Healthcare PLLC (“Poplar”), which we refer to as the “Joint Venture”. The Joint Venture was formed by the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Precipio Oncometrix LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“POC”), which was entered into as of April 11, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), by and among POC, Poplar, and Precipio SPV Inc. (“Precipio SPV”), a newly formed subsidiary of the Company, together with such other persons who from time to time become party to the Limited Liability Company Agreement by executing a counterpart signature page in accordance with the terms hereof. POC was formed as a limited liability company on April 2, 2020 in accordance with the statutes and laws of the State of Delaware relating to limited liability companies, including, without limitation, the Delaware Act, by the filing of a Certificate of Formation with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Precipio SPV was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 10, 2020 for the sole purpose of being a party to the Joint Venture.

Table of Contents

Under the terms of the Joint Venture, Precipio SPV has a 49% ownership interest in the Joint Venture, with Poplar having a 51 % ownership. Pursuant to the Limited Liability Company Agreement, Poplar, at any time, has the right to require Precipio SPV to purchase all, but not less than all, of Poplar’s shares in the Joint Venture (the “Poplar Put Right”). The purchase price for Poplar’s shares shall be $1.00 per share, or fifty-one dollars, and Precipio SPV would, therefore, become the sole 100% owner of the Joint Venture at the time the Poplar Put Right became effective.

The business purpose of the Joint Venture is to facilitate and capitalize on the combined capabilities, resources and healthcare industry relationships of its members by partnering, promoting and providing oncology services to office based physicians, hospitals and medical centers. Operational services of the Joint Venture are performed entirely by its members and employees of its members. Precipio SPV’s responsibilities include product and account management services, selling & marketing, laboratory diagnostic services and general & administrative services. Precipio SPV is entitled to a management fee for the services it provides. This management fee is established through service agreements which were executed in conjunction with the formation of the Joint Venture. Poplar receives a similar fee for the billing services that it provides.

Going Concern.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable for a going concern, which assume that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial operating losses and has used cash in its operating activities for the past several years. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had a net loss of $5.4 million, negative working capital of $2.7 million and net cash used in operating activities of $3.6 million. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is dependent upon a combination of achieving its business plan, including generating additional revenue and avoiding potential business disruption due to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, and raising additional financing to meet its debt obligations and paying liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.

To meet its current and future obligations the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business and successfully achieve its business plan:

●

On March 26, 2020, the Company entered into a second purchase agreement (the “LP 2020 Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of common stock of the Company (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the term of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement. The extent we rely on Lincoln Park as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. As of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have already received $4.9 million from the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement from the sale of 3,330,000 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park from April 1, 2020 through the date of issuance of this Form 10-Q, leaving the Company an additional $5.1 million to draw upon in the coming year; and

Notwithstanding the aforementioned circumstances, there remains substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully achieve its initiatives summarized above in order to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report Form 10-Q. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern as a result of the outcome of this uncertainty.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with GAAP and, as of June 30, 2020 and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the interim periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 27, 2020, and as amended on April 7, 2020. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for fiscal year 2020.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Precipio and its wholly owned subsidiaries, and the Joint Venture which is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which we are the primary beneficiary. Refer to the section titled “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” for further information related to our accounting for the Joint Venture. All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements.

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-13 “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)”, which modifies certain disclosure requirements in Topic 820, such as the removal of the need to disclose the amount of and reason for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and several changes related to Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance was not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)”, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal use software. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance was not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”, which is intended to improve consistent application and simplify the accounting for income taxes. This ASU removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU and does not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which replaces current methods for evaluating impairment of financial instruments not measured at fair value, including trade accounts receivable and certain debt securities, with a current expected credit loss model. This ASU, as amended,

is effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Loss Per Share.

Basic loss per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share includes shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants or conversion rights that have exercise or conversion prices below the market value of our common stock. Options, warrants and conversion rights pertaining to 1,815,502 and 1,760,336 shares of our common stock have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, because the effect is anti-dilutive due to the net loss.

The following table summarizes the outstanding securities not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share:


	June 30,
	2020	2019
Stock options	791,233	501,242
Warrants	906,769	909,189
Preferred stock	117,500	20,888
Convertible notes	—	329,017
Total	1,815,502	1,760,336

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.

We evaluate any entity in which we are involved to determine if the entity is a VIE and if so, whether we hold a variable interest and are the primary beneficiary. We consolidate VIEs that are subject to assessment when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The process for determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE is to conclude whether we are a party to the VIE holding a variable interest that meets both of the following criteria: (1) has the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE, and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that in either case could potentially be significant to the VIE.

We have determined that we hold a variable interest in the Joint Venture, have the power to make significant operational decisions on behalf of the VIE and also have the obligation to absorb the majority of the losses from the VIE. As such we have also determined that we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The following table presents information about the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of the Joint Venture which we consolidate and which are included on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Intercompany balances are eliminated in consolidation and not reflected in the following table.

Long-term debt, net of current maturities	$	631	$	198

Department of Economic and Community Development.

On January 8, 2018, the Company received gross proceeds of $400,000 when it entered into an agreement with the Department of Economic and Community Development (“DECD”) by which the Company received a grant of $100,000 and a loan of $300,000 secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets (the “DECD 2018 Loan”). The DECD 2018 Loan is a ten-year loan due on December 31, 2027 and includes interest paid monthly at 3.25%.

Due to the economic impact of COVID-19, DECD offered financial relief to all businesses with certain loans, including the Company’s DECD 2018 Loan. The relief includes the option to defer all payments from April 1, 2020 to August 1, 2020 and no interest will accrue on the deferred payments between those dates. The deferred payments will be added to the end of the loan. The Company chose to defer its payments and the maturity date of the DECD 2018 Loan was extended to May 31, 2028. The payment deferral modification did not have a material impact on the Company’s cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Debt issuance costs associated with the DECD 2018 Loan were approximately $31,000. Amortization of the debt issuance cost was less than $1,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and less than $2,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Net debt issuance costs were approximately $23,000 and $24,000 at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and are presented as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization for each of the next five years is expected to be approximately $3,000.

Financed Insurance Loan.

The Company finances certain of its insurance premiums (the “Financed Insurance Loans”). In July 2018, the Company financed $0.4 million with a 4.89% interest rate and fully paid off such loan as of July 2019. In July 2019, the Company financed $0.4 million with a 5.0% interest rate and will make monthly payments through May of 2020. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Financed Insurance Loan’s outstanding balance of zero and $0.3 million, respectively, was included in current maturities of long-term debt in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. A corresponding prepaid asset was included in other current assets.

Settlement Agreement.

On September 21, 2018, the Company entered into a settlement and forbearance agreement with a creditor (the “September 2018 Settlement”) pursuant to which, the Company agreed to make monthly principal and interest payments to the creditor over a two year period, from November 1, 2018 to November 1, 2020, in full and final settlement of $0.1 million of indebtedness that was owed to the creditor on the date of the September 2018 Settlement. The settlement amount accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum until paid in full. The September 2018 Settlement outstanding

Table of Contents

balance of less than $0.1 million was included in current maturities of long-term debt in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Paycheck Protection Program.

On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) evidencing an unsecured $787,200 loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”). The Paycheck Protection Program (or “PPP”) was established under the recently congressionally-approved Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The PPP Loan to the Company was made through Webster Bank, N.A.

The term of the PPP Loan is two years. The interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.00% and payments are deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP Loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. The Company will use the eight-week forgiveness period and will apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loan in accordance with the terms of the PPP, but no assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part. The Company believes it used all of the PPP Loan amount for qualifying expenses. As of the date of issuance of this Report on Form 10-Q, using the eight-week forgiveness period, we have incurred approximately $0.8 million in payroll, payroll related costs and other qualifying expenses.

The Promissory Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the Promissory Note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, and/or filing suit and obtaining judgment against the Company.

As of June 30, 2020, $0.4 million the PPP Loan’s outstanding balance was included in current maturities of long-term debt and $0.4 million was included in long-term debt in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Convertible Bridge Notes.

On April 20, 2018, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “2018 Note Agreement”) with certain investors (the “April 2018 Investors”), as amended on November 29, 2018 (the “Amendment Agreement”) and amended on April 16, 2019 (“Amendment No.2 Agreement”). During 2018, pursuant to the 2018 Note Agreement, the Company issued approximately $4.5 million in Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Bridge Notes”) along with warrants.

Table of Contents

On April 16, 2019, the Company entered into the Amendment No.2 Agreement which provided the Company with approximately $900,000 of gross proceeds for the issuance of notes with an aggregate principal of $989,011 (the “April 2019 Bridge Notes”) together with applicable warrants, with substantially the same terms and conditions as the previously issued Bridge Notes and related warrants. The 9% discount associated with the April 2019 Bridge Notes was approximately $89,000 and was recorded as a debt discount. In connection with the April 2019 Bridge Note issuances, the Company issued to the investors 147,472 warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company with a five year term and exercise price of $5.40 (the “April 2019 Warrants”). The April 2019 Warrants had an initial value of approximately $1.0 million at the date of issuance and were recorded as a liability with an offset to debt discount. See Note 9 – Fair Value for further discussion. The April 2019 Bridge Notes were issued to investors that previously participated in the 2018 Note Agreement.

The conversion price of the April 2019 Bridge Notes shall be equal to the greater of $3.75 or $0.75 above the closing bid price of our common stock on the date prior to the original issue date. In the event the notes are not paid in full prior to 180 days after the original issue date, the conversion price shall be equal to 80% of the lowest volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) in the 10 trading days prior to the date of the notice of conversion, but in no event below the floor price of $2.25.

The Company reviewed the conversion option of the April 2019 Bridge Notes and determined that there was a beneficial conversion feature with a value of approximately $0.9 million which was recorded as a debt discount with an offset to additional paid in capital at the time of the Amendment No.2 Agreement. The Company also reviewed the redemption features of the April 2019 Bridge Notes and determined that there is a redemption feature (the “Bridge Notes Redemption Feature”) that qualifies as an embedded derivative. The Company performed a valuation at the time of issuance which resulted in zero value, at that time, due to the high value of the conversion feature and a limited upside from the redemption premium.

Debt discounts and debt issuance costs related to the April 2019 Bridge Notes totaled $2.0 million. Since the costs exceeded the $1.0 million face amount of the debt at issuance, the Company recorded $1.0 million of debt discount and debt issuance costs as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet with the excess $1.0 million expensed as a loss on issuance of convertible notes in the consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Pursuant to the Amendment No.2 Agreement, previously issued warrants were amended such that the exercise price of such warrants was amended from $7.50 to $5.40 and any warrant that had a one-year term was amended to have a five-year term. The Company reviewed the amendments to the warrants and determined that they will be treated as a modification of an outstanding equity instrument at the time of the Amendment No.2 Agreement. Management calculated the change in fair value due to the modifications to be an expense of approximately $1.1 million which is included in loss on modification of warrants in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

On May 14, 2019, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which, the Company was provided with $1,000,000 of gross proceeds for the issuance of notes with an aggregate principal of $1,098,901 (the “May 2019 Bridge Notes”) together with applicable warrants, with substantially the same terms and conditions as the previously issued Bridge Notes and related warrants. The 9% discount associated with the May 2019 Bridge Notes was approximately $99,000 and was recorded as a debt discount. In connection with the May 2019 Bridge Note issuances, the Company issued to the investors 154,343 warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company with a five year term and exercise price of $9.56 (the “May 2019 Warrants”). The May 2019 Warrants had an initial value of approximately $0.9 million at the date of issuance and were recorded as a liability with an offset to debt discount. See Note 9 – Fair Value for further discussion. The May 2019 Bridge Notes were issued to investors that previously participated in the 2018 Note Agreement.

The conversion price of the May 2019 Bridge Notes is $7.12, provided that a) in the event the notes are not paid in full prior to 180 days after the original issue date or b) upon a registration statement (as defined in the purchase agreement) being declared effective, whichever occurs earlier, the conversion price shall be equal to 80% of the lowest VWAP in the 10 trading days prior to the date of the notice of conversion, but in no event below the floor price of $2.25.

Table of Contents

The Company reviewed the conversion option of the May 2019 Bridge Notes and determined that there was a beneficial conversion feature with a value of approximately $0.9 million which was recorded as a debt discount with an offset to additional paid in capital at the time of issuance of the May 2019 Bridge Notes. The May 2019 Bridge Notes also contain the Bridge Notes Redemption Feature and the Company performed a valuation at the time of issuance which resulted in zero value, at that time, due to the high value of the conversion feature and a limited upside from the redemption premium.

Debt discounts and debt issuance costs related to the May 2019 Bridge Notes totaled $2.0 million. Since the costs exceeded the $1.1 million face amount of the debt, the Company recorded $1.1 million of debt discount and debt issuance costs as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet with the excess $0.9 million expensed as a loss on issuance of convertible notes in the consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

On March 26, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment agreement (the “March 2020 Amendment”) amending the terms of that certain Amendment No. 2 Agreement dated April 16, 2019 and the securities purchase agreement dated May 14, 2019. As a result of the March 2020 Amendment, (i) the maturity date of the April 2019 Bridge Notes and the May 2019 Bridge Notes was extended three months from April 16, 2020 to July 16, 2020, (ii) the floor price at which conversions may occur under the April 2019 Bridge Notes and the May 2019 Bridge Notes was amended from $2.25 to $0.40, and (iii) guaranteed interest on the April 2019 Bridge Notes and the May 2019 Bridge Notes was amended from twelve months to eighteen months.

The Company reviewed the modifications and concluded that the March 2020 Amendment will be treated as an extinguishment of the related April 2019 Bridge Notes and May 2019 Bridge Notes. The difference between the carrying value of the notes just prior to modification (the “Pre-modification Debt”) and the fair value of the notes just after modification (the “Post-modification Debt”) would be recorded as a gain or loss on extinguishment in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company removed the carrying value of the Pre-modification Debt which included $1.0 million of unamortized debt discounts and beneficial conversion features of $0.5 million. The Company calculated the fair value of the Post-modification Debt to be $2.6 million. The Company reviewed whether or not a beneficial conversion feature existed on the Post-modification Debt but the calculation resulted in zero intrinsic value so no new beneficial conversion feature was recorded. Management also reviewed the Bridge Notes Redemption Feature of the post-modification notes but their fair value was zero so no derivative liability was recorded at the time of modification, however this will be reassessed at the end of each reporting period. As a result, the Company recorded a debt premium on the Post-modification Debt of $0.8 million and a loss on extinguishment of convertible notes of $1.2 million in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of bridge notes, plus interest, were converted into 3,480,148 and 756,588 shares of common stock of the Company, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, $2.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of bridge notes, plus interest, were converted into 3,908,145 and 1,776,018 shares of common stock of the Company, respectively.

As a result of the bridge note conversions, the Company wrote off approximately $0.4 million of derivative liability, with an offset to additional paid-in capital, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

On January 15, 2019, the Company and Crede Capital Group LLC (“Crede”) entered into an amendment and restatement agreement (the “Crede Amendment Agreement”) in order to enable the Company to provide Crede with an alternative means of payment of a previous settlement amount, by issuing to Crede a convertible note in the amount of $1.45 million (the “Crede Note”). The conversion price of the Crede Note shall equal 90% of the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock on the date prior to each conversion date. The Crede Note is payable by the Company on the earlier of (i) January 15, 2021 or (ii) upon the closing of a qualified offering in which the Company receives gross proceeds of at least $4.0 million.

The Company, at its option, may redeem some or all of the then outstanding principal amount of the Crede Note for cash.

In accordance with the terms of the Crede Amendment Agreement, during the period commencing on the date of issuance of the Crede Note and ending on the date Crede no longer beneficially owns any portion of the Crede Note, Crede shall not sell, on any given trading day, more than the greater of (i) $10,000 of common stock (subject to adjustment for any stock splits or combinations, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar event after the date hereof) and (ii) 10% of the daily average composite trading volume of the Company’s common stock as reported by Bloomberg, LP (subject to adjustment for any stock splits or combinations, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar event after the date hereof) for such trading day.

The Company is involved in legal proceedings related to matters, which are incidental to its business. Also, the Company is delinquent on the payment of outstanding accounts payable for certain vendors and suppliers who have taken or have threatened to take legal action to collect such outstanding amounts. See below for a discussion on these matters.

LITIGATIONS

CPA Global provides us with certain patent management services. On February 6, 2017, CPA Global claimed that we owed approximately $0.2 million for certain patent maintenance services rendered. CPA Global has not filed claims against us in connection with this allegation. A liability of less than $0.1 million has been recorded and is reflected in accounts payable within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

On February 17, 2017, Jesse Campbell (“Campbell”) filed a lawsuit individually and on behalf of others similarly situated against us in the District Court for the District of Nebraska alleging we had a materially incomplete and misleading proxy relating to a potential merger and that the merger agreement’s deal protection provisions deter superior offers. On June 21, 2019, the parties filed a stipulation of settlement, in which defendants are released from all claims and expressly deny that that they have committed any act or omission giving rise to any liability. The stipulation includes a settlement payment of $1.95 million. On July 10, 2019, the Court entered an order preliminarily approving the settlement. During the third quarter of 2019, both the Company and its insurance company paid their respective amounts of $0.27 million and $1.68 million, respectively, to an escrow account where the funds were held until they were approved for distribution. On June 3, 2020, the Court approved the settlement and entered an order of dismissal. As of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, the escrow funds have been released and this matter is closed.

LEGAL AND REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT

The healthcare industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirement, reimbursement for patient services and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Government activity has increased with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations by healthcare providers.

Violations of these laws and regulations could result in expulsion from government healthcare programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. Management believes that the Company is in compliance with fraud and abuse regulations, as well as other applicable government laws and regulations. While no material regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions unknown or unasserted at this time.

7. LEASES

On January 1, 2019, the Company recorded initial ROU assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities of approximately $750,000 and a reversal of deferred rent and prepaid expenses of approximately $6,000 resulting in no cumulative effect adjustment upon adoption of Topic 842. The Company leases administrative facilities and laboratory equipment through operating lease agreements. In addition we rent various equipment used in our diagnostic lab and in our administrative offices through finance lease arrangements. Our operating leases include both lease (e.g., fixed payments including rent) and non-lease components (e.g., common area or other maintenance costs). The facility leases include one or more options to renew, from 1 to 5 years or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is typically at our sole discretion, therefore, the renewals to extend the lease terms are not included in our ROU assets and lease liabilities as they are not reasonably certain of exercise. We regularly evaluate the renewal options and, when they are reasonably certain of exercise, we include the renewal period in our lease term. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments.

Operating leases result in the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. ROU assets represent our right to use the leased asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The primary leases we enter into with initial terms of 12 months or less are for equipment.

Upon the adoption of Topic 842, our accounting for finance leases, previously referred to as capital leases, remains substantially unchanged from prior guidance.

8. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock.

Pursuant to our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, we currently have 150,000,000 shares of common stock authorized for issuance. On December 20, 2018, the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors to, in its discretion, amend the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the total number of authorized shares of common stock from 150,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares. The Company has not yet effected this increase.

See Note 4 – Convertible Notes.

LP Purchase Agreement

On September 7, 2018, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “LP Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park, pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of $10,000,000 of common stock of the Company (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the term of the LP Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the LP Purchase Agreement, on the agreement date, the Company issued 40,000 shares of its common stock to Lincoln Park as consideration for its commitment to purchase shares of common stock of the Company under the LP Purchase Agreement (the “LP Commitment Shares”). Also on September 7, 2018, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with Lincoln Park (the “LP Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which on September 14, 2018, the Company filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, 466,667 shares of common stock, which includes the LP Commitment Shares, that have been or may be issued to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement. The Form S-1 was declared effective by the SEC on September 28, 2018. As of January 16, 2019, all shares registered under this S-1 had been sold and/or issued to Lincoln Park. On February 1, 2019, the Company filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, an additional 1,000,000 shares of common stock that have been or may be issued to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement. The Form S-1 was declared effective by the SEC on February 12, 2019. As of August 5, 2019, all shares registered under this S-1 had been sold and/or issued to Lincoln Park. On August 9, 2019, the Company filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, an additional 1,800,000 shares of common stock that have been or may be issued to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement. As of January 9, 2020, all shares registered under this S-1 had been sold

Table of Contents

and/or issued to Lincoln Park. On January 14, 2020, the Company filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, an additional 920,654 shares of common stock that have been or may be issued to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement. As of April 6, 2020, all 920,654 shares registered under this S-1 had been sold and/or issued to Lincoln Park.

Under the LP Purchase Agreement, the Company may, from time to time and at its sole discretion, on any single business day on which the closing price of its common stock is not less than $1.50 per share (subject to adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction as provided in the LP Purchase Agreement), direct Lincoln Park to purchase shares of its common stock in amounts up to 30,000 shares, which amounts may be increased to up to 36,666 shares depending on the market price of its common stock at the time of sale and subject to a maximum commitment by Lincoln Park of $1,000,000 per single purchase, which the Company refers to as “regular purchases”, plus other “accelerated amounts” and/or “additional accelerated amounts” under certain circumstances. The Company will control the timing and amount of any sales of its common stock to Lincoln Park. The purchase price of the shares that may be sold to Lincoln Park in regular purchases under the LP Purchase Agreement will be based on the market price of the common stock of the Company preceding the time of sale as computed under the LP Purchase Agreement. The purchase price per share will be equitably adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction occurring during the business days used to compute such price. The Company may at any time in its sole discretion terminate the LP Purchase Agreement without fee, penalty or cost upon one business day notice. There are no restrictions on future financings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the LP Purchase Agreement or LP Registration Rights Agreement, other than a prohibition on the Company entering into certain types of transactions that are defined in the LP Purchase Agreement as “Variable Rate Transactions.” Lincoln Park may not assign or transfer its rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement.

Under applicable rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market, in no event may the Company issue or sell to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement more than 19.99% of the shares of its common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the LP Purchase Agreement (which is 308,590 shares based on 1,543,724 shares outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the LP Purchase Agreement), which limitation the Company refers to as the Exchange Cap, unless (i) the Company obtains stockholder approval to issue shares of common stock in excess of the Exchange Cap or (ii) the average price of all applicable sales of the Company’s common stock to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement equals or exceeds $7.05 (which represents the closing consolidated bid price of the Company’s common stock on September 7, 2018, plus an incremental amount to account for the issuance of the LP Commitment Shares to Lincoln Park), such that issuances and sales of the Company’s common stock to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement would be exempt from the Exchange Cap limitation under applicable Nasdaq rules. In any event, the LP Purchase Agreement specifically provides that the Company may not issue or sell any shares of its common stock under the LP Purchase Agreement if such issuance or sale would breach any applicable Nasdaq rules. The Company received shareholder approval on December 20, 2018.

The LP Purchase Agreement also prohibits the Company from directing Lincoln Park to purchase any shares of common stock if those shares, when aggregated with all other shares of the Company’s common stock then beneficially owned by Lincoln Park and its affiliates, would result in Lincoln Park and its affiliates having beneficial ownership, at any single point in time, of more than 4.99% of the then total outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and Rule 13d-3 thereunder, which limitation the Company refers to as the Beneficial Ownership Cap as defined in the LP Agreement.

As of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have already received an aggregate of $9.4 million from the sale of common stock to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement, including approximately: $1.4 million from the sale of 328,590 shares of common stock during 2018; $6.6 million from the sale of 2,778,077 shares of common stock during 2019; and, $0.1 million and $1.4 million from the sale of 110,642 and 1,040,654 shares of common stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

LP 2020 Purchase Agreement

On March 26, 2020, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “LP 2020 Purchase Agreement”) and a registration rights agreement (the “LP 2020 Registration Rights Agreement”) with Lincoln Park pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from us, from time to time, up to $10,000,000 of our common stock, subject to certain limitations, during the 24 month term of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement, on the agreement date, the Company issued 250,000 shares of its common stock to Lincoln Park as consideration for its commitment to purchase shares of common stock of the Company under the LP Purchase Agreement (the “LP 2020 Commitment Shares”). Pursuant to the terms of the LP 2020 Registration Rights Agreement, on March 27, 2020, as amended on April 8, 2020, the Company filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, 1,770,000 shares of common stock, which includes the LP 2020 Commitment Shares, that have been or may be issued to Lincoln Park under the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement. The Form S-1 was declared effective by the SEC on April 13, 2020. As of June 22, 2020, all shares registered under this S-1 had been sold and/or issued to Lincoln Park. On June 26, 2020, the Company filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, an additional 4,500,000 shares of common stock that have been or may be issued to Lincoln Park under the LP Purchase Agreement. The Form S-1 was amended twice on July 7, 2020 and declared effective by the SEC on July 7, 2020. No shares registered under this S-1 had been sold and/or issued to Lincoln Park during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Under the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement, on any business day selected by us, we may direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to 50,000 shares of our common stock on any such business day, which we refer to as a Regular Purchase in the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement, provided, however, that (i) the Regular Purchase may be increased to up to 80,000 shares, provided that the closing sale price is not below $1.00 on the purchase date and (ii) the Regular Purchase may be increased to up to 100,000 shares, provided that the closing sale price is not below $1.50 on the purchase date. In each case, the maximum amount of any single Regular Purchase may not exceed $1,000,000 per purchase. Lincoln Park has no right to require the Company to sell any shares of common stock to Lincoln Park, but Lincoln Park is obligated to make purchases as we direct, subject to certain conditions. The purchase price for Regular Purchases shall be equal to the lesser of: (i) the lowest sale price of the common shares during the purchase date, or (ii) the average of the three (3) lowest closing sale prices of the common shares during the ten (10) business days prior to the purchase date.

Under applicable rules of The NASDAQ Capital Market, in no event may we issue or sell to Lincoln Park under the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement more than 19.99% of the shares of our common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement (which is 1,774,024 shares, based on 8,870,129 shares outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement), which limitation we refer to as the Exchange Cap, unless (i) we obtain stockholder approval to issue shares of common stock in excess of the Exchange Cap or (ii) the average price of all applicable sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park under the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement equals or exceeds $0.7306 (which represents the closing consolidated bid price of our common stock on March 25, 2020, plus an incremental amount to account for our issuance of the Commitment Shares to Lincoln Park), such that the transactions contemplated by the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement are exempt from the Exchange Cap limitation under applicable NASDAQ rules. In any event, the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement specifically provides that we may not issue or sell any shares of our common stock under the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement if such issuance or sale would breach any applicable rules or regulations of The NASDAQ Capital Market.

The LP 2020 Purchase Agreement also prohibits us from directing Lincoln Park to purchase any shares of common stock if those shares, when aggregated with all other shares of our common stock then beneficially owned by Lincoln Park and its affiliates, would result in Lincoln Park and its affiliates having beneficial ownership, at any single point in time, of more than 4.99% of the then total outstanding shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and Rule 13d-3 thereunder, which limitation we refer to as the Beneficial Ownership Cap.

As of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have already received an aggregate of $4.9 million from the sale of common stock to Lincoln Park under the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement, including approximately; $1.2 million from the sale of 1,520,000 shares of common stock during the three and six months ended

Table of Contents

June 30, 2020, respectively; and $3.7 million from the sale of 1,810,000 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park which were sold from July 1, 2020 through the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Preferred Stock.

The Company’s Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, from time to time, with such designations, powers, preferences and rights and such qualifications, limitations and restrictions as may be provided in a resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors.

Series B Preferred Stock.

The Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) with the State of Delaware which designates 6,900 shares of our preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 per share and a par value of $0.01 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock includes a beneficial ownership blocker but has no dividend rights (except to the extent dividends are also paid on the common stock). On August 28, 2017, the Company completed an underwritten public offering (the “August 2017 Offering”) consisting of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock and warrants.

The conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock contains a down round feature. The Company will recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. At that time, the effect would be treated as a deemed dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in our basic earnings per share calculation.

The March 2020 Amendment, see Note 4 – Convertible Notes, triggered the down round feature of the Series B Preferred Stock and, as a result, the conversion price of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was automatically adjusted from $2.25 per share to $0.40 per share. In connection with the down round adjustment, the Company calculated an incremental beneficial conversion feature of approximately $3.3 million which was recognized as a deemed dividend at time of the down round adjustment (“Deemed Dividend A”).

There were no conversions of Series B Preferred Stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had 6,900 shares of Series B designated and issued and 47 shares of Series B outstanding.

Liquidation Preferences

The following is the liquidation preferences for the Company’s preferred stock;

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Corporation an amount equal to the par value, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, for each share of Preferred Stock before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of the Common Stock, and if the assets of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the entire assets to be distributed to the holders shall be ratably distributed among the holders in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares. If all amounts were paid in full; and thereafter, the holders shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Corporation the same amount that a holder of Common Stock would receive if the Preferred Stock were fully converted to Common Stock which amount shall be paid pari passu with all holders of Common Stock.

9. FAIR VALUE

FASB guidance on fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements for our financial assets and liabilities, as well as for

Table of Contents

other assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

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

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

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

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

Common Stock Warrant Liabilities.

Certain of our issued and outstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock do not qualify to be treated as equity and, accordingly, are recorded as a liability. We are required to record these instruments at fair value at each reporting date and changes are recorded as a non-cash adjustment to earnings. The gains or losses included in earnings are reported in other income (expense) in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

2016 Warrant Liability

The Company has a warrant liability related to warrants issued in January 2016 (the “2016 Warrant Liability”) and it represents the fair value of such warrants, of which, 357 warrants remain outstanding as of June 30, 2020.

In March 2018, a portion of the 2016 Warrant Liability was part of a settlement agreement pursuant to a lawsuit that was filed against the Company by one of the warrant holders. As such, approximately $0.4 million of the warrant liability, representing 1,347 warrants, was canceled on the date of the settlement agreement.

The 2016 Warrant Liability is considered a Level 3 financial instrument and was valued using the Monte Carlo methodology. As of June 30, 2020, assumptions and inputs used in the valuation of the 2016 Warrant Liability include: remaining life to maturity of 0.5 years; annual volatility of 119%; and a risk-free interest rate of 0.18%. As of December 31, 2019, assumptions and inputs used in the valuation of the 2016 Warrant Liability include: remaining life to maturity of one year; annual volatility of 140%; and a risk-free interest rate of 1.59%.

Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities

During 2018 and 2019, the Company issued warrants in connection with the issuance of Bridge Notes. All of these warrants issuances were classified as warrant liabilities (the “Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities”). See Note 4 - Convertible Notes for further discussion.

The Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities are considered Level 3 financial instruments and were valued using the Black Scholes model. As of June 30, 2020, assumptions used in the valuation of the Bridge Note Warrant Liabilities include: remaining life to maturity of 1.81 to 3.87 years; annual volatility of 123% to 159%; and risk free rate of 0.16% to 0.24%.

Derivative Liabilities.

Certain of our issued and outstanding convertible notes contain features that are considered derivative instruments and are required to bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for separately as derivative liabilities. The estimated fair value of the derivatives will be remeasured at each reporting date and any change in estimated fair value of the derivatives will be recorded as non-cash adjustments to earnings. The gains or losses included in earnings are reported in other income (expense) in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Bridge Notes Redemption Feature

Valuations for derivatives related to Bridge Note redemption features were performed using the “with and without” approach, whereby the Bridge Notes were valued both with the embedded derivative and without.

10. EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

The Company's 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2006 Plan") was terminated as to future awards on July 12, 2016. The Company's 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "2017 Plan") was adopted by the Company's stockholders on June 5, 2017 and there were 44,444 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan. The 2017 Plan will expire on June 5, 2027.

Amendment of the 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan

On January 31, 2018, at a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company, the stockholders approved an amendment and restatement of the 2017 Plan to:

●

increase the aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2017 Plan by 359,300 shares;

●

increase the maximum number of shares that may be granted in the form of stock options or stock appreciation rights to any one individual in any one calendar year and the maximum number of shares underlying any award intended to qualify as performance-based compensation to any one individual in any performance cycle, in each case to 66,666 shares of common stock; and

●

add an “evergreen” provision, pursuant to which the aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2017 Plan will be automatically increased each year beginning on January 1, 2019 by 5% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding

Table of Contents

December 31, or such lesser number of shares determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or Compensation Committee. Accordingly, the shares authorized for issuance under the 2017 Plan were increased by 394,905 shares and 114,937 shares on January 1, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Stock Options.

The Company accounts for all stock-based compensation payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee stock options, at fair value at the date of grant and expenses the benefit in operating expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations over the service period of the awards. The Company records the expense for stock-based compensation awards subject to performance-based milestone vesting over the remaining service period when management determines that achievement of the milestone is probable based on the expected satisfaction of the performance conditions as of the reporting date. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires various assumptions including estimating stock price volatility, expected life of the stock option, risk free interest rate and estimated forfeiture rate.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company granted stock options to purchase up to 325,050 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $2.13. The following table summarizes stock option activity under our plans during the six months ended June 30, 2020:


	Number of	Weighted-Average
	Options	Exercise Price
Outstanding at January 1, 2020	490,330	$	8.30
Granted	325,050		2.13
Forfeited	(24,147)		5.04
Outstanding at June 30, 2020	791,233	$	5.87
Exercisable at June 30, 2020	277,941	$	10.40

As of June 30, 2020, there were 662,910 options that were vested or expected to vest with an aggregate intrinsic value of zero and a remaining weighted average contractual life of 8.7 years.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, there were 285,364 options granted with a weighted average exercise price of $2.37 and 9,017 options forfeited with a weighted average exercise price of $6.92.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded compensation expense for all stock awards of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, within operating expense in the accompanying statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded compensation expense for all stock awards of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, the unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock awards was $2.0 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years.

11. SALES SERVICE REVENUE, NET AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from contracts with customers”

The Company follows the guidance of ASC 606 for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers to transfer goods and services. The Company performed a comprehensive review of its existing revenue arrangements following the five-step model:

Step 1: Identification of the contract with the customer. Sub-steps include determining the customer in a contract; Initial contract identification and determine if multiple contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single transaction.

Step 2: Identify the performance obligation in the contract. Sub-steps include identifying the promised goods and services in the contract and identifying which performance obligations within the contract are distinct.

Table of Contents

Step 3: Determine the transaction price. Sub-steps include variable consideration, constraining estimates of variable consideration, the existence of a significant financing component in the contract, noncash consideration and consideration payable to a customer.

Step 4: Allocate transaction price. Sub-steps include assessing the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to the customer.

Step 5: Satisfaction of performance obligations. Sub-steps include ascertaining the point in time when an asset is transferred to the customer and the customer obtains control of the asset upon which time the Company recognizes revenue.

Nature of Contracts and Customers

The Company’s contracts and related performance obligations are similar for its customers and the sales process for all customers starts upon the receipt of requisition forms from the customers for patient diagnostic testing and the execution of contracts for biomarker testing and clinical research. Payment terms for the services provided are 30 days, unless separately negotiated.

Diagnostic testing

Control of the laboratory testing services is transferred to the customer at a point in time. As such, the Company recognizes revenue for laboratory testing services at a point in time based on the delivery method (web-portal access or fax) for the patient’s laboratory report, per the contract.

Clinical research grants

Control of the clinical research services are transferred to the customer over time. The Company will recognize revenue utilizing the “effort based” method, measuring its progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation.

Biomarker testing and clinical project services

Control of the biomarker testing and clinical project services are transferred to the customer over time. The Company utilizes an “effort based” method of assessing performance and measures progress towards satisfaction of the performance obligation based upon the delivery of results.

The Company generates revenue from the provision of diagnostic testing provided to patients, biomarker testing provided to bio-pharma customers and clinical research grants funded by both bio-pharma customers and government health programs.

Disaggregation of Revenues by Transaction Type

We operate in one business segment and, therefore, the results of our operations are reported on a consolidated basis for purposes of segment reporting, consistent with internal management reporting. Service revenue, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows (prior-period amounts are not adjusted under the modified-retrospective method of adoption):

Service revenue, net	$	2,692	$	1,678	$	382	$	427	$	3,074	$	2,105

Revenue from the Medicare and Medicaid programs account for a portion of the Company’s patient diagnostic service revenue. Laws and regulations governing those programs are extremely complex and subject to interpretation. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in the near term.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using the expected value method based on historical experience. The Company does not typically enter arrangements where multiple contracts can be combined as the terms regarding services are generally found within a single agreement/requisition form. The Company derives its revenues from three types of transactions: diagnostic testing (“Diagnostic”), and clinical research grants from state and federal research programs, and other revenues from the Company’s ICP technology and bio-pharma projects encompassing genetic diagnostics (collectively “Biomarker”).

Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue, or unearned revenue, refers to advance payments for products or services that are to be delivered in the future. The Company records such prepayment of unearned revenue as a liability, as revenue that has not yet been earned, but represents products or services that are owed to a customer. As the product or service is delivered over time, the Company recognizes the appropriate amount of revenue from deferred revenue. For the period ended June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the deferred revenue was zero and $35,000, respectively.

Table of Contents

Contractual Allowances and Adjustments

We are reimbursed by payers for services we provide. Payments for services covered by payers average less than billed charges. We monitor revenue and receivables from payers and record an estimated contractual allowance for certain revenue and receivable balances as of the revenue recognition date to properly account for anticipated differences between amounts estimated in our billing system and amounts ultimately reimbursed by payers. Accordingly, the total revenue and receivables reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements are recorded at the amounts expected to be received from these payers. For service revenue, the contractual allowance is estimated based on several criteria, including unbilled claims, historical trends based on actual claims paid, current contract and reimbursement terms and changes in customer base and payer/product mix. The billing functions for the remaining portion of our revenue are contracted and fixed fees for specific services and are recorded without an allowance for contractual discounts. The following table presents our revenues initially recognized for each associated payer class during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides for a general allowance for collectability of services when recording net sales. The Company has adopted the policy of recognizing net sales to the extent it expects to collect that amount. Reference FASB 954-605-45-5 and ASU 2011-07, Health Care Entities: Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debt, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The change in the allowance for doubtful accounts is directly related to the increase in patient service revenues.

Overview

We are a cancer diagnostics company providing diagnostic products and services to the oncology market. We have built and continue to develop a platform designed to eradicate the problem of misdiagnosis by harnessing the intellect, expertise and technologies developed within academic institutions, and delivering quality diagnostic information to physicians and their patients worldwide. We operate a cancer diagnostic laboratory located in New Haven, Connecticut and have partnered with various academic institutions to capture the expertise, experience and technologies developed within academia to provide a better standard of cancer diagnostics and aim to solve the growing problem of cancer misdiagnosis. We also operate a research and development facility in Omaha, Nebraska which focuses on development of various technologies, among them IV-Cell, HemeScreen and ICE-COLD-PCR, or ICP, the patented technology described further below, which we exclusively licensed from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc., or Dana-Farber, at Harvard University. The research and development center focuses on the development of these technologies, which we believe will enable us to commercialize these and other technologies developed with our current and future academic partners. The facility in Omaha was also recently certified as a CLIA and CAP facility, and we have begun bringing in house several molecular tests that the Company had previously referenced out to other laboratories. Our platform also connects patients, physicians and diagnostic experts residing within academic institutions.

In April 2020, we formed the Joint Venture with Poplar. Poplar provides specialized laboratory testing services to a nationwide client base of gastroenterologists, dermatologists, oncologists, urologists, gynecologists and their patients. The business purpose of the Joint Venture is to facilitate and capitalize on the combined capabilities, resources and healthcare industry relationships of its members by partnering, promoting and providing oncology services to office based physicians, hospitals and medical centers. Under the terms of the Joint Venture, Precipio SPV has a 49% ownership interest in the Joint Venture, with Poplar having a 51 % ownership.

Recent Developments

Nasdaq Compliance

On April 29, 2020, Precipio, Inc. received written notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based on the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the preceding 30 consecutive business days (March 17, 2020 to April 28, 2020), the Company was not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”), as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Notice had no immediate effect on the listing of Precipio’s common stock and the Company had until December 28, 2020 to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

On June 29, 2020, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq stating that because the Company’s shares had a closing bid price at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive business days, the Company’s stock had regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq, and that the matter is now closed.

Business Activities

On July 30, 2020, the Company announced that it entered into an agreement with ADS Biotec, a US company based in Omaha, Nebraska, to distribute its FDA-authorized COVID-19 serology antibody tests that recently received EUA (Emergency Use Authorization). Distribution of the product will take place in the US as well as in other markets worldwide. We will begin rolling out these antibody tests initially as a CLIA test run in our laboratory (expected launch August); then further roll out (pending further FDA authorization) to physician offices as a POC (point-of-care) test; and finally, through distribution via various retail channels for at-home, DTC (direct-to-consumer) use.

Virus vs. Antibody test

While both the active virus and antibody tests are important elements of controlling the pandemic, antibody testing is key to enabling society to return to full functionality. The antibody test for IgM and IgG detects the body's

Table of Contents

immune response to the infection caused by the virus. As stated by the FDA, antibody tests could play a role in the fight against COVID-19 by helping healthcare professionals identify individuals who may have developed an immune response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. This is a key to returning our children to schools, adults to work, opening up the economy and resuming life as we knew it prior to the pandemic.

Going Concern

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable for a going concern, which assume that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial operating losses and has used cash in its operating activities for the past several years. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had a net loss of $5.4 million, negative working capital of $2.7 million and net cash used in operating activities of $3.6 million. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is dependent upon a combination of achieving its business plan, including generating additional revenue and avoiding potential business disruption due to COVID-19, and raising additional financing to meet its debt obligations and paying liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.

To meet its current and future obligations the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business and successfully achieve its business plan:

●

On March 26, 2020, the Company entered into a second purchase agreement with Lincoln Park (the “LP 2020 Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Lincoln Park has agreed to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of common stock of the Company (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over the term of the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement. The extent we rely on Lincoln Park as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. As of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have already received $4.9 million from the LP 2020 Purchase Agreement from the sale of 3,330,000 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park from April 1, 2020 through the date of issuance of this Form 10-Q, leaving the Company an additional $5.1 million to draw upon in the coming year; and

●

Notwithstanding the aforementioned circumstances, there remains substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully achieve its initiatives summarized above in order to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern as a result of the outcome of this uncertainty.

Outlook - COVID-19 related

The COVID-19 outbreak, which spread worldwide in the first quarter of 2020, has caused significant business disruption. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's operational and financial performance will depend

Table of Contents

on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and impact on the Company's customers, employees and vendors, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. These uncertainties could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We have been actively monitoring the COVID-19 situation and its impact on the global economy and the Company. As the global pandemic evolves, we will continue to monitor the extent to which COVID-19 impacts our revenues, expenses and liquidity.

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were approximately $1.3 million, an increase of $0.4 million as compared to the same period in 2019. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, service revenue, less allowance for doubtful accounts, increased due to patient diagnostic service revenue which had an increase of $0.6 million as compared to the same period in 2019 due to an increase in cases processed. We billed 785 cases during the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 445 cases during the same period in 2019, or a 76% increase in cases. The increase in volume is the result of increased sales personnel. The increase in patient diagnostic service revenue was partially offset by a decrease of $0.3 million in contract diagnostics revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019. Other revenue increased less than $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019

Other Income (Expense). We recorded other income, net of less than $0.1 million and other expense, net of $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The current year period net income of less than $0.1 million includes $0.3 million of interest income from the accretion of debt premiums related to convertible notes and $0.2 million of other income. Approximately $0.1 million of the other income is funds we received from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”). As part of the CARES Act, HHS distributed funds to healthcare providers that received Medicare fee-for-service reimbursements in 2019. The payments from HHS are not loans and will not be required to be repaid. The other income items were partially offset by approximately $0.4 million of expense recorded on warrant revaluations and $0.1 million of interest expense. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, other expense, net of $3.6 million included expense from warrant and derivative revaluations of $2.4 million, a loss on issuance of convertible notes of $1.9 million, a loss on litigation of $0.3 million and net interest expense of approximately $0.2 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Accounting policies used in the preparation of our financial statements may involve the use of management judgments and estimates. Certain of our accounting policies are considered critical as they are both important to the portrayal of our financial statements and require significant or complex judgments on the part of management. Our judgments and estimates are based on experience and assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Further, we evaluate our judgments and estimates from time to time as circumstances change. Actual financial results based on judgments or estimates may vary under different assumptions or circumstances. Our critical accounting policies are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our

Table of Contents

disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance 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 rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and no evaluation of controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and concluded that there have not been any changes that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

We have incurred losses since our inception and expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We cannot be certain that we will achieve or sustain profitability.

We have incurred losses since our inception and expect to incur losses in the future. As of June 30, 2020, we had a net loss of $5.4 million, negative working capital of $2.7 million and net cash used in operating activities of $3.6 million. To date, we have experienced negative cash flow from development of our diagnostic technology, as well as

from the costs associated with establishing a laboratory and building a sales force to market our products and services. We expect to incur substantial net losses for the foreseeable future to further develop and commercialize our diagnostic technology. We also expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will continue to increase due to the additional costs associated with market development activities and expanding our staff to sell and support our products. Our ability to achieve or, if achieved, sustain profitability is based on numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the market acceptance of our products, competitive product development and our market penetration and margins. We may never be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or, if achieved, sustain profitability.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with further development and commercialization of our diagnostic technology and any future tests, we are unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if ever. We may never become profitable and you may never receive a return on an investment in our securities. An investor in our securities must carefully consider the substantial challenges, risks and uncertainties inherent in the development and commercialization of tests in the medical diagnostic industry. We may never successfully commercialize our diagnostic technology or any future tests, and our business may fail.

We will need to raise substantial additional capital to commercialize our diagnostic technology, and our failure to obtain funding when needed may force us to delay, reduce or eliminate our product development programs or collaboration efforts or force us to restrict or cease operations.

As of June 30, 2020, our cash balance was $0.4 million and our working capital was approximately negative $2.7 million. Due to our recurring losses from operations and the expectation that we will continue to incur losses in the future, we will be required to raise additional capital to complete the development and commercialization of our current product candidates and to pay off our obligations. To date, to fund our operations and develop and commercialize our products, we have relied primarily on equity and debt financings. When we seek additional capital, we may seek to sell additional equity and/or debt securities or to obtain a credit facility, which we may not be able to do on favorable terms, or at all. Our ability to obtain additional financing will be subject to a number of factors, including market conditions, our operating performance and investor sentiment. If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of one or more of our product candidates, restrict or cease our operations or obtain funds by entering into agreements on unattractive terms.

If we cannot continue to satisfy NASDAQ listing maintenance requirements and other rules, our securities may be delisted, which could negatively impact the price of our securities.

Although our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, we may be unable to continue to satisfy the listing maintenance requirements and rules. If we are unable to satisfy The NASDAQ Stock Market, or NASDAQ, criteria for maintaining our listing, our securities could be subject to delisting.

On April 29, 2020, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying us that for the past 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price per share of our common stock was below the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), or the Bid Price Rule. As a result, we were notified by Nasdaq that we were not in compliance with the Bid Price Rule. Nasdaq provided us until December 28, 2020 to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.

We are currently in compliance with NASDAQ listing requirements, however, if NASDAQ were to delist our securities, we could face significant consequences, including:

●

a limited availability for market quotations for our securities;

●

reduced liquidity with respect to our securities;

●

a determination that our common stock is a “penny stock,” which will require brokers trading in our common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in reduced trading;

●

activity in the secondary trading market for our common stock;

●

limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

●

a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

In addition, we would no longer be subject to NASDAQ rules, including rules requiring us to have a certain number of independent directors and to meet other corporate governance standards

We face risks related to health pandemics and other widespread outbreaks of contagious disease, including the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, which could significantly disrupt our operations and impact our financial results.

Our business could be disrupted and materially adversely affected by the recent outbreak of COVID-19. In December 2019, an outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a strain of novel coronavirus, COVID-19, began in China. As of July 2020, that outbreak has led to numerous confirmed cases worldwide, including in the United States. The outbreak and government measures taken in response have also had a significant impact, both direct and indirect, on businesses and commerce. Global health concerns, such as coronavirus, could also result in social, economic, and labor instability in the countries in which we or the third parties with whom we engage operate.

The spread of COVID-19 has created a worldwide humanitarian and economic crisis. The events we are living through are in many ways unprecedented, with large-scale quarantines, border closings, school closings, and physical distancing. Governments and communities have been jolted into action to “flatten the curve.” As an organization we have accelerated our actions to protect employees, customers and suppliers.

The progression of the outbreak and its effects on our business and operations are uncertain. While we can only estimate the financial impacts to our business, based on current data, we have experienced business interruptions in certain urban markets that continue to range from 30% to 85%. With the understanding that it is extremely difficult to project the full and ongoing impact of state-by-state quarantine and shelter-in-place orders, we anticipate that such rules and restrictions on businesses will continue through the second quarter of 2020 and quite possibly beyond, in various degrees, as the country re-opens state by state, county by county and city by city. Returning to normalcy is conditioned on many factors surrounding the control and or eradication of COVID-19. As such, we are unable to provide additional insight on the impact to our business at this time.

Going forward, we expect that challenges to our business will continue. We have been and will continue to be prudent in managing through this economic crisis. Digital connectivity is now fundamental to the continuity of our business operations. We continually engage our employees and customers in keeping safe. We monitor adherence to governmental guidelines. We have employed remote work where possible. In this unchartered time, we recognize the need for frequent and transparent communication to all parties. As necessary, we will provide additional information related to this economic condition, including the impact to our future operating results due to downturns in global economies and financial markets.

We face risks related to the Paycheck Protection Program loan (PPP Loan), which could negatively impact our financial position.

On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into the Promissory Note evidencing an unsecured $787,200 loan under the PPP. The PPP was established under the recently congressionally-approved CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The PPP Loan to the Company is being made through Webster Bank, N.A.

PPP Loan in whole or in part. If forgiveness is not granted, the PPP Loan, in whole or in part, will need to be repaid by the Company, which could have an adverse effect on our future cash flows and financial position.
