Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 17, 2025, Interpace Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries entered into the Fourth Amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement with BroadOak Fund V, L.P. (“BroadOak”) dated May 5, 2022 (the “Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company and BroadOak agreed to: (i) the payment by the Company commencing on February 1, 2025 and continuing until and including June 1, 2025 of $500,000 of principal together with unpaid and accrued interest owed pursuant to the Credit Agreement on the first day of each month, (ii) commending on July 1, 2025 and continuing until and including December 1, 2025, the payment by the Company of accrued and unpaid interest owed pursuant to the Credit Agreement on the first day of each month, (iii) the payment by the Company on December 31, 2025 of all remaining outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest owed pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and (iv) the payment by the Company on January 17, 2025 of an amount equal to 1% of the then outstanding amount of the Term Loan Advance under the Credit Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Fourth Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On January 14, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a restructuring plan (the “Restructuring Plan”) and cost-savings to reduce operating costs and better align its workforce with the loss of PancraGEN® coverage by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”), which was previously announced on January 9, 2025. The Company expects the implementation of the Restructuring Plan to be substantially completed by the end of the second quarter of 2025.
Under the Restructuring Plan, the Company is reducing its workforce and impacted employees will be eligible to receive severance benefits. The Company expects to incur severance costs in the range of $0.8 million to $1.0 million which will be recorded primarily in the first quarter of 2025. The substantial majority of the severance payments are expected to be made by the end of the second quarter of 2025.
The Company expects that the loss of PancraGEN® and related restructuring activities will reduce its annual cost of revenue and operating expenses by approximately $12.5 million to $14.5 million which is expected to substantially offset the expected loss of approximately one-third of its revenues. The cost that the Company expects to incur in connection with the Restructuring Plan is subject to several assumptions, and actual results may differ materially. The Company may also incur additional costs not currently contemplated due to events that may occur as a result of, or that are associated with, the Restructuring Plan.
The following exhibits are being filed herewith:
