Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On November 9, 2017, Cancer Genetics, Inc. (the “Registrant”) issued a press release regarding financial results for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017.

Forward-Looking Statements
This report, including Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 furnished herewith, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements typically are identified by use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate” and similar words, and the opposites of such words, although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that exist in the Registrant’s operations and business environment, which may be beyond the Registrant’s control, and which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be forward- looking statements. For example, forward-looking statements include, without limitation: statements regarding prospects for additional customers; market forecasts; anticipated benefits to be realized from acquisitions; projections of earnings, revenues, synergies, accretion or other financial information; and plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations. The risks and uncertainties referred to above include, but are not limited to, risks detailed from time to time in the Registrant’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. These risks could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward- looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Registrant. Forward-looking statements represent the judgment of management of the Registrant regarding future events. Although the Registrant believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable at the time that they are made, the Registrant can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, the Registrant assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, and expressly disclaims any obligation to do so, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD.
The slide presentation referred to in Item 2.02 above is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
