1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | ||||||||
Veracyte, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on August 15, 2006 as Calderome, Inc. Calderome operated as an incubator until early 2008. On March 4, 2008, the Company changed its name to Veracyte, Inc. Veracyte is a diagnostics company pioneering the field of molecular cytology to improve patient outcomes and lower healthcare costs. The Company specifically targets diseases that often require invasive procedures for an accurate diagnosis — diseases where many healthy patients undergo costly interventions that ultimately prove unnecessary. The Company improves the accuracy of diagnosis at an earlier stage of patient care by deriving clinically actionable genomic information from cytology samples collected in an outpatient setting. The Company’s first commercial solution, the Afirma® Thyroid FNA Analysis, includes as its centerpiece the Gene Expression Classifier (“GEC”). The GEC helps physicians reduce the number of unnecessary surgeries by employing a proprietary 142-gene signature to preoperatively determine whether thyroid nodules previously classified by cytopathology as indeterminate can be reclassified as benign. The Company’s operations are based in South San Francisco, California and Austin, Texas, and it operates in one segment in the United States. | ||||||||
Basis of Presentation | ||||||||
The accompanying interim period condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2014, and the condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has been derived from audited financial statements. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any other period. | ||||||||
The accompanying interim period condensed financial statements and related financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | ||||||||
Use of Estimates | ||||||||
The preparation of the unaudited interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates include: revenue recognition; contractual allowances; allowance for doubtful accounts; the useful lives of property and equipment; the recoverability of long-lived assets; the determination of fair value of the Company’s common stock prior to the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), stock options, preferred stock liability; income tax uncertainties, including a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets; and contingencies. The Company bases these estimates on historical and anticipated results, trends, and various other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and recorded revenue and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. | ||||||||
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties | ||||||||
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are deposited with one major financial institution in the United States of America. Deposits in this institution may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents. | ||||||||
Several of the components of the Company’s sample collection kit and test reagents are obtained from single-source suppliers. If these single-source suppliers fail to satisfy the Company’s requirements on a timely basis, it could suffer delays in being able to deliver its diagnostic solution, a possible loss of revenue, or incur higher costs, any of which could adversely affect its operating results. | ||||||||
The Company is also subject to credit risk from its accounts receivable related to its sales of Afirma. The Company generally does not perform evaluations of customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. All of the Company’s accounts receivables are derived from sales of Afirma in the United States and Canada. | ||||||||
Through June 30, 2014, all of the Company’s revenues are derived from the sale of Afirma. The Company’s solution to date has been delivered primarily to physicians in the United States. The Company’s significant third-party payers and their related revenue as a percentage of total revenue are as follows: | ||||||||
Six Months Ended | ||||||||
June 30, | ||||||||
2014 | 2013 | |||||||
Medicare | 28 | % | 35 | % | ||||
Aetna | 11 | % | 7 | % | ||||
United Healthcare | 16 | % | 14 | % | ||||
55 | % | 56 | % | |||||
Accounts receivable from Medicare amounted to 81% and 78% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. No other third-party payer represented more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balances for these periods. | ||||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | ||||||||
Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. Cash equivalents consist primarily of amounts invested in money market accounts. | ||||||||
Restricted Cash | ||||||||
Deposits of $118,000 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, were restricted from withdrawal and held by a bank in the form of collateral for letters of credit. The balance for each respective period consists of a letter of credit totaling $118,000 held as security for the lease of the Company’s office space in South San Francisco, California. | ||||||||
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | ||||||||
The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts against its individual accounts receivable based on estimates of expected reimbursement consistent with historical payment experience in relation to the amounts billed. Bad debt expense is included in general and administrative expense on the Company’s statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Accounts receivable are written off against the allowance when there is other substantive evidence that the account will not be paid. If the financial condition of our customers deteriorates, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payment, additional allowances may be required. | ||||||||
The balance of allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, including charges to bad debt expense and write-offs, net of recoveries, was as follows: | ||||||||
June 30, | December 31, | |||||||
2014 | 2013 | |||||||
(In thousands) | ||||||||
Beginning balance | $ | 107 | $ | 222 | ||||
Charged to expense | 39 | 109 | ||||||
Write-offs, net of recoveries | (34 | ) | (224 | ) | ||||
Ending balance | $ | 112 | $ | 107 | ||||
Supplies Inventory | ||||||||
Supplies inventory consists of test reagents and other consumables used in the sample collection kits and in the GEC and are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using actual costs on a first-in, first-out basis. | ||||||||
Property and Equipment | ||||||||
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally between three and five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and improvements and betterments are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period realized. | ||||||||
Internal-use Software | ||||||||
The Company capitalizes costs incurred in the application development stage to design and implement the software used in the tracking and reporting of laboratory activity. Costs incurred in the development of application software are capitalized and amortized over an estimated useful life of three years on a straight line basis. The total cost, accumulated depreciation and net book value was $607,000, $259,000 and $348,000, respectively, as of June 30, 2014, and was $482,000, $195,000 and $287,000, respectively, as of December 31, 2013, and are included in property and equipment in the Company’s condensed balance sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company capitalized $125,000 and $166,000, respectively, of software development costs. Amortization expense totaled $32,000 and $64,000 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $22,000 and $38,000, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. | ||||||||
Long-lived Assets | ||||||||
The Company annually reviews long-lived assets for impairment or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the total of estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. Impairment, if any, would be assessed using discounted cash flows or other appropriate measures of fair value. There were no impairments for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. | ||||||||
Bonus Accruals | ||||||||
The Company accrues for liabilities under discretionary employee and executive bonus plans. These estimated compensation liabilities are based on progress against corporate objectives approved by the Board of Directors, compensation levels of eligible individuals, and target bonus percentage levels. The Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors review and evaluate the performance against these objectives and ultimately determine what discretionary payments are made. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company accrued $400,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, for liabilities associated with these employee and executive bonus plans which are included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed balance sheets. | ||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ||||||||
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. | ||||||||
Revenue Recognition | ||||||||
The Company’s revenue is generated from the provision of diagnostic services using the Afirma solution. The Company’s service is completed upon the delivery of test results to the prescribing physician which triggers the billing for the service. The Company recognizes revenue related to billings for Medicare and commercial carriers on an accrual basis, net of contractual adjustments, when there is an agreement or a predictable pattern of collectability. Until a contract or agreement has been negotiated with a commercial carrier or governmental program, the Afirma solution may or may not be covered by these entities’ existing reimbursement policies. In addition, patients do not enter into direct agreements with the Company that commit them to pay any portion of the cost of the tests in the event that their insurance declines to reimburse the Company. | ||||||||
For all services performed, the Company considers whether or not the following revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. | ||||||||
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and delivery is deemed to have occurred upon delivery of a patient report to the prescribing physician. The assessment of the fixed or determinable nature of the fees charged for diagnostic testing performed and the collectability of those fees require significant judgment by management. Management believes that these two criteria have been met when there is a contracted reimbursement rate and/or a predictable pattern of collectability with individual third-party payers and accordingly, recognizes revenue upon delivery of the patient report. Some patients have out-of-pocket costs for amounts not covered by their insurance carrier, and the Company may bill the patient directly for these amounts in the form of co-payments and co-insurance in accordance with their insurance carrier and health plans. Some payers may not cover the Company’s GEC as ordered by the prescribing physician under their reimbursement policies. The Company pursues reimbursement from such patients on a case-by-case basis. | ||||||||
In the absence of a contracted reimbursement coverage or a predictable pattern and history of collectability, the Company believes that the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured only upon receipt of third-party payer notification of payment or when cash is received and, accordingly, recognizes revenue at that time. | ||||||||
Cost of Revenue | ||||||||
Cost of revenue is expensed as incurred and includes material and service costs, cytopathology testing services performed by a third-party pathology group, stock-based compensation expense, direct labor costs, equipment and infrastructure expenses associated with testing tissue samples, shipping charges to transport samples, and allocated overhead including rent, information technology, equipment depreciation and utilities. | ||||||||
Research and Development | ||||||||
Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. Research and development costs include, but are not limited to, payroll and personnel-related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, prototype materials, laboratory supplies, consulting costs, costs associated with setting up and conducting clinical studies at domestic and international sites, and allocated overhead including rent, information technology, equipment depreciation and utilities. | ||||||||
Income Taxes | ||||||||
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. | ||||||||
The Company assesses all material positions taken in any income tax return, including all significant uncertain positions, in all tax years that are still subject to assessment or challenge by relevant taxing authorities. The Company’s assessment of an uncertain tax position begins with the initial determination of the position’s sustainability and is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of each balance sheet date, unresolved uncertain tax positions must be reassessed, and the Company will determine whether (i) the factors underlying the sustainability assertion have changed and (ii) the amount of the recognized tax benefit is still appropriate. The recognition and measurement of tax benefits requires significant judgment. Judgments concerning the recognition and measurement of a tax benefit may change as new information becomes available. | ||||||||
Stock-based Compensation | ||||||||
Stock-based compensation expense for equity instruments issued to employees is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the awards. The fair value of each employee stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company recognizes compensation costs on a straight-line basis for all employee stock based compensation awards that are expected to vest over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the awards’ vesting period. Forfeitures are required to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. | ||||||||
Equity instruments issued to non-employees are valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and are subject to remeasurement as the underlying equity instruments vest. | ||||||||
Net Loss per Common Share | ||||||||
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration of common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities consisting of convertible preferred stock and options to purchase common stock are considered to be common stock equivalents and were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because their effect would be anti-dilutive for all periods presented. | ||||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | ||||||||
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The updated standard becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the potential effect of the updated standard on its financial statements. | ||||||||
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit when a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this ASU provide guidance on the financial statements presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. An unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward with certain exceptions, in which case such an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability. The amendments in this ASU do not require new recurring disclosures and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2014 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed financial statements. | ||||||||

4. Fair Value Measurements | ||||
The Company records its financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments of the Company, including cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. The carrying value of debt approximates its fair value because the interest rate approximates market rates that the Company could obtain for debt with similar terms. The accounting guidance for fair value provides a framework for measuring fair value, clarifies the definition of fair value, and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tiered hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value as follows: | ||||
· | Level I: Inputs which include quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. | |||
· | Level II: Inputs other than Level I that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. | |||
· | Level III: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. | |||
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets, which consist only of money market funds, was $57.7 million and $70.0 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and are Level I assets as described above. | ||||

6. Debt | |
In June 2013, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with a financial institution to fund its working capital and other general corporate needs. The agreement provided for term loans of up to $10.0 million in aggregate. The Company drew down $5.0 million in funds under the agreement in June 2013, and did not draw the remaining $5.0 million on or before the expiration date of March 31, 2014. The carrying value of the debt approximates its fair value because the interest rate approximates market rates that the Company could obtain for debt with similar terms. The Company’s long-term debt obligation is a Level III liability. Level III inputs include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability. | |
The Company is required to repay the outstanding principal in 30 equal installments beginning 18 months after the date of the borrowing and is due in full in June 2017. The loan bears interest at a rate of 6.06% per annum. The loan carries prepayment penalties of 2.25% and 1.5% for prepayment within one and two years, respectively, of the loan origination and 0.75% thereafter. As of June 30, 2014, the net debt obligation is $5.0 million, consisting of the $5.1 million borrowing and the unpaid accrued balloon payment obligation net of the $100,000 discount on the note, of which $940,000 is included in current liabilities and $4.1 million is included in long-term debt in the Company’s balance sheets. The obligation includes an end-of-term payment of $223,000, representing 4.45% of the total outstanding principal balance, which accretes over the life of the loan as interest expense. As a result of the debt discount and the end of term payment, the effective interest rate for the loan differs from the contractual rate. Total interest on the debt was $113,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, comprised of $76,000 of nominal interest and $37,000 in interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount and accretion of the end of term payment, and $224,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, comprised of $152,000 of nominal interest and $72,000 in interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount and accretion of the end of term payment. | |
The Company’s obligations under the loan and security agreement are secured by a security interest in substantially all of its assets, excluding its intellectual property and certain other assets. The loan and security agreement contains customary conditions related to borrowing, events of default, and covenants, including covenants limiting the Company’s ability to dispose of assets, undergo a change in control, merge with or acquire other entities, incur debt, incur liens, pay dividends or other distributions to holders of its capital stock, repurchase stock and make investments, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The agreement also allows the lender to call the debt in the event there is a material adverse change in the Company’s business or financial condition. There are no financial covenants in the loan and security agreement. | |

Upon the draw down of the $5.0 million term loan, the related warrant became exercisable for 24,801 shares. In November 2013, in connection with the Company’s IPO, the warrant automatically became exercisable for 24,801 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.56 per share.

In January 2012, the Company and Genzyme Corporation (“Genzyme”) executed a co-promotion agreement for the co-exclusive rights and license to promote and market the Company’s Afirma thyroid diagnostic solution in the United States and in 40 named countries. In exchange, the Company received a $10.0 million upfront co-promotion fee from Genzyme in February 2012. The Company may receive an additional $3.0 million in payments, $600,000 for each country outside of the United States in which the Company obtains marketing authorization and achieves a specified level of reimbursement, for up to five countries. Under the terms of the agreement, Genzyme will receive a percentage of cash receipts that the Company has received related to Afirma as co-promotion fees. The percentage was 50% in 2012, 40% from January 2013 through February 2014, and 32% beginning in March 2014 and thereafter. Genzyme will also spend up to $500,000 for qualifying clinical development activities in countries that require additional testing for approval. This obligation expires in July 2014. The agreement expires in January 2027 and either party may terminate the agreement at any time and with six months prior notice. The Company is amortizing the $10.0 million upfront co-promotion fee over a four-year period, which is management’s best estimate of the life of the agreement, in part because after that period either party may terminate the agreement without penalty. See Note 13 — Subsequent Events. | ||||||||
The Company incurred $2.7 million and $1.8 million in co-promotion expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $5.5 million and $3.7 million in the six months ended June 20, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which is included in selling and marketing expenses in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company’s outstanding obligation to Genzyme totaled $8.1 million and $6.7 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Of the $8.1 million obligation at June 30, 2014, $5.4 million is included in accounts payable and $2.7 million is included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed balance sheets. Of the $6.7 million obligation at December 31, 2013, $1.8 million is included in accounts payable and $4.9 million is included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed balance sheets. | ||||||||
The Company amortized $625,000 of the $10.0 million up-front co-promotion fee in each of the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, and $1.3 million in each of the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, which is reflected as a reduction to selling and marketing expenses in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

In 2010, the Company entered into an arrangement with Pathology Resource Consultants, P.A. (“PRC”) to set up and manage a specialized pathology practice to provide testing services to the Company. There is no direct monetary compensation from the Company to PRC as a result of this arrangement. The Company’s service agreement is with the specialized pathology practice, Thyroid Cytopathology Partners (“TCP”), and is effective through December 31, 2015, unless terminated earlier, and renews annually thereafter. Under the service agreement, Veracyte pays TCP based on a fixed price per test schedule, which is reviewed periodically for changes in market pricing. Subsequent to December 2012, an amendment to the service agreement allows TCP to use a portion of Veracyte’s facility in Austin, Texas. The Company does not have an ownership interest in or provide any form of financial or other support to TCP. The Company has concluded that TCP represents a variable interest entity and that the Company is not the primary beneficiary as it does not have the ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact TCP’s economic performance. Therefore, the Company does not consolidate TCP. All amounts paid to TCP under the service agreement are expensed as incurred and included in cost of revenue in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company incurred $966,000 and $806,000 in cytopathology testing and evaluation services expenses with TCP in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $1.9 million and $1.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company’s outstanding obligations to TCP for cytopathology testing services were $653,000 and $588,000 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and are included in accounts payable in the Company’s condensed balance sheets. | |
TCP reimburses the Company for a proportionate share of the Company’s rent and related operating expense costs for the leased facility. TCP’s portion of rent and related operating expense costs for the shared space at the Austin, Texas facility was $21,000 and $41,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and is included in other income in the Company’s statements of operations and comprehensive loss. | |

The Company did not record a provision or benefit for income taxes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance for its U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. | |
On January 2, 2013, The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (“ATRA”) was signed into law. Under prior law, a taxpayer was entitled to a research tax credit for qualifying amounts incurred through December 31, 2011. The ATRA extends the research credit for two years for qualified research expenditures incurred through the end of 2013. The extension of the research credit is retroactive and includes amounts incurred after 2011. | |
At June 30, 2014, the Company had $0.8 million of unrecognized tax benefit, none of which, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate as most of the unrecognized tax benefit is deferred tax assets currently offset by a valuation allowance. | |
The Company has not recognized any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision. | |
The Company files annual income tax returns in the United States only. A number of years may elapse before an uncertain tax position is audited and finally resolved. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular uncertain tax position, the Company believes that its reserves for income taxes reflect the most likely outcome. The Company adjusts these reserves, as well as the related interest, in light of changing facts and circumstances. Settlement of any particular position could require the use of cash. As of June 30, 2014, changes to the Company’s uncertain tax positions in the next twelve months that are reasonably possible are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. | |

The accompanying interim period condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2014, and the condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has been derived from audited financial statements. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any other period. | ||||||||
The accompanying interim period condensed financial statements and related financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | ||||||||

Use of Estimates | ||||||||
The preparation of the unaudited interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates include: revenue recognition; contractual allowances; allowance for doubtful accounts; the useful lives of property and equipment; the recoverability of long-lived assets; the determination of fair value of the Company’s common stock prior to the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), stock options, preferred stock liability; income tax uncertainties, including a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets; and contingencies. The Company bases these estimates on historical and anticipated results, trends, and various other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and recorded revenue and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. | ||||||||

Several of the components of the Company’s sample collection kit and test reagents are obtained from single-source suppliers.

The Company is also subject to credit risk from its accounts receivable related to its sales of Afirma. The Company generally does not perform evaluations of customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. All of the Company’s accounts receivables are derived from sales of Afirma in the United States and Canada. | ||||||||

Cash and Cash Equivalents | ' | |||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | ||||||||
Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. Cash equivalents consist primarily of amounts invested in money market accounts. | ||||||||
Restricted Cash | ' | |||||||
Restricted Cash | ||||||||
Deposits of $118,000 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, were restricted from withdrawal and held by a bank in the form of collateral for letters of credit. The balance for each respective period consists of a letter of credit totaling $118,000 held as security for the lease of the Company’s office space in South San Francisco, California. | ||||||||
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | ' | |||||||
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | ||||||||
The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts against its individual accounts receivable based on estimates of expected reimbursement consistent with historical payment experience in relation to the amounts billed. Bad debt expense is included in general and administrative expense on the Company’s statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Accounts receivable are written off against the allowance when there is other substantive evidence that the account will not be paid. If the financial condition of our customers deteriorates, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payment, additional allowances may be required. | ||||||||
The balance of allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, including charges to bad debt expense and write-offs, net of recoveries, was as follows: | ||||||||

Supplies Inventory | ' | |||||||
Supplies Inventory | ||||||||
Supplies inventory consists of test reagents and other consumables used in the sample collection kits and in the GEC and are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using actual costs on a first-in, first-out basis. | ||||||||
Property and Equipment | ' | |||||||
Property and Equipment | ||||||||
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally between three and five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and improvements and betterments are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period realized. | ||||||||
Internal-use Software | ' | |||||||
Internal-use Software | ||||||||
The Company capitalizes costs incurred in the application development stage to design and implement the software used in the tracking and reporting of laboratory activity. Costs incurred in the development of application software are capitalized and amortized over an estimated useful life of three years on a straight line basis. The total cost, accumulated depreciation and net book value was $607,000, $259,000 and $348,000, respectively, as of June 30, 2014, and was $482,000, $195,000 and $287,000, respectively, as of December 31, 2013, and are included in property and equipment in the Company’s condensed balance sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company capitalized $125,000 and $166,000, respectively, of software development costs. Amortization expense totaled $32,000 and $64,000 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $22,000 and $38,000, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. | ||||||||
Long-lived Assets | ' | |||||||
Long-lived Assets | ||||||||
The Company annually reviews long-lived assets for impairment or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the total of estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. Impairment, if any, would be assessed using discounted cash flows or other appropriate measures of fair value. There were no impairments for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. | ||||||||
Bonus Accruals | ' | |||||||
Bonus Accruals | ||||||||
The Company accrues for liabilities under discretionary employee and executive bonus plans. These estimated compensation liabilities are based on progress against corporate objectives approved by the Board of Directors, compensation levels of eligible individuals, and target bonus percentage levels. The Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors review and evaluate the performance against these objectives and ultimately determine what discretionary payments are made. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company accrued $400,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, for liabilities associated with these employee and executive bonus plans which are included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed balance sheets. | ||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ' | |||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ||||||||
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. | ||||||||
Revenue Recognition | ' | |||||||
Revenue Recognition | ||||||||
The Company’s revenue is generated from the provision of diagnostic services using the Afirma solution. The Company’s service is completed upon the delivery of test results to the prescribing physician which triggers the billing for the service. The Company recognizes revenue related to billings for Medicare and commercial carriers on an accrual basis, net of contractual adjustments, when there is an agreement or a predictable pattern of collectability. Until a contract or agreement has been negotiated with a commercial carrier or governmental program, the Afirma solution may or may not be covered by these entities’ existing reimbursement policies. In addition, patients do not enter into direct agreements with the Company that commit them to pay any portion of the cost of the tests in the event that their insurance declines to reimburse the Company. | ||||||||
For all services performed, the Company considers whether or not the following revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. | ||||||||
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and delivery is deemed to have occurred upon delivery of a patient report to the prescribing physician. The assessment of the fixed or determinable nature of the fees charged for diagnostic testing performed and the collectability of those fees require significant judgment by management. Management believes that these two criteria have been met when there is a contracted reimbursement rate and/or a predictable pattern of collectability with individual third-party payers and accordingly, recognizes revenue upon delivery of the patient report. Some patients have out-of-pocket costs for amounts not covered by their insurance carrier, and the Company may bill the patient directly for these amounts in the form of co-payments and co-insurance in accordance with their insurance carrier and health plans. Some payers may not cover the Company’s GEC as ordered by the prescribing physician under their reimbursement policies. The Company pursues reimbursement from such patients on a case-by-case basis. | ||||||||
In the absence of a contracted reimbursement coverage or a predictable pattern and history of collectability, the Company believes that the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured only upon receipt of third-party payer notification of payment or when cash is received and, accordingly, recognizes revenue at that time. | ||||||||
Cost of Revenue | ' | |||||||
Cost of Revenue | ||||||||
Cost of revenue is expensed as incurred and includes material and service costs, cytopathology testing services performed by a third-party pathology group, stock-based compensation expense, direct labor costs, equipment and infrastructure expenses associated with testing tissue samples, shipping charges to transport samples, and allocated overhead including rent, information technology, equipment depreciation and utilities. | ||||||||
Research and Development | ' | |||||||
Research and Development | ||||||||
Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. Research and development costs include, but are not limited to, payroll and personnel-related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, prototype materials, laboratory supplies, consulting costs, costs associated with setting up and conducting clinical studies at domestic and international sites, and allocated overhead including rent, information technology, equipment depreciation and utilities. | ||||||||
Income Taxes | ' | |||||||
Income Taxes | ||||||||
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. | ||||||||
The Company assesses all material positions taken in any income tax return, including all significant uncertain positions, in all tax years that are still subject to assessment or challenge by relevant taxing authorities. The Company’s assessment of an uncertain tax position begins with the initial determination of the position’s sustainability and is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of each balance sheet date, unresolved uncertain tax positions must be reassessed, and the Company will determine whether (i) the factors underlying the sustainability assertion have changed and (ii) the amount of the recognized tax benefit is still appropriate. The recognition and measurement of tax benefits requires significant judgment. Judgments concerning the recognition and measurement of a tax benefit may change as new information becomes available. | ||||||||
Stock-based Compensation | ' | |||||||
Stock-based Compensation | ||||||||
Stock-based compensation expense for equity instruments issued to employees is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the awards. The fair value of each employee stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company recognizes compensation costs on a straight-line basis for all employee stock based compensation awards that are expected to vest over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the awards’ vesting period. Forfeitures are required to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. | ||||||||
Equity instruments issued to non-employees are valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and are subject to remeasurement as the underlying equity instruments vest. | ||||||||
Net Loss per Common Share | ' | |||||||
Net Loss per Common Share | ||||||||
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration of common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities consisting of convertible preferred stock and options to purchase common stock are considered to be common stock equivalents and were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because their effect would be anti-dilutive for all periods presented. | ||||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | ' | |||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | ||||||||
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The updated standard becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the potential effect of the updated standard on its financial statements. | ||||||||
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit when a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this ASU provide guidance on the financial statements presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. An unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward with certain exceptions, in which case such an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability. The amendments in this ASU do not require new recurring disclosures and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2014 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed financial statements. | ||||||||
