Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative United States GAAP as defined in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, T2 Biosystems Securities Corporation. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Unaudited Interim Financial Information Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ deficit for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the related financial data and other information disclosed in these notes are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual financial statements, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2022, and the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022, any other interim periods, or any future year or period. Segment Information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one operating segment, which is the business of developing and, upon regulatory clearance, commercializing its diagnostic products aimed at lowering mortality rates, improving patient outcomes and reducing the cost of healthcare by helping medical professionals make targeted treatment decisions earlier. Geographic Information The Company sells its products domestically and internationally. Total international sales were approximately $1.0 million or 13% of total revenue and $0.5 million or 7% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, no international customer represented greater than 10% The Company derived approximately 47 % of its total revenue from one customer for the three months ended March 31 , 202 2 and 33 % of its total revenue from the same customer for the three months ended March 31, 2021 . T he Company derived approximately 9 % of its total revenue from a second customer for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and % of its total revenue from the same customer for the three months ended March 31, 2021 . As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had outstanding receivables of $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively, from customers located outside of the U.S. Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury-stock method. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, stock options and unvested restricted stock and restricted stock contingently issuable upon achievement of certain market conditions are considered to be common stock equivalents, but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, as their effect would be anti-dilutive for all periods presented. Therefore, basic and diluted net loss per share applicable to common stockholders was the same for all periods presented. Marketable Securities The Company’s marketable securities consist of U.S. treasury securities, which are classified as available-for-sale and included in current assets. Available-for-sale debt securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of stockholders’ deficit in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. Realized gains and losses, if any, are included in other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Available-for-sale securities are reviewed for possible impairment at least quarterly, or more frequently if circumstances arise that may indicate impairment. When the fair value of the securities declines below the amortized cost basis, impairment is indicated and it must be determined whether it is other than temporary. Impairment is considered to be other than temporary if the Company: (i) intends to sell the security, (ii) will more likely than not be forced to sell the security before recovering its cost, or (iii) does not expect to recover the security’s amortized cost basis. If the decline in fair value is considered other than temporary, the cost basis of the security is adjusted to its fair market value and the realized loss is reported in earnings. Subsequent increases or decreases in fair value are reported as a component of stockholders’ deficit in accumulated other comprehensive loss (income). There were no other-than-temporary unrealized losses as of March 31, 2022. The following table summarizes the Company’s marketable securities at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (in thousands): March 31, 2022 Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value U.S. treasury securities $ 10,000 $ — $ (11 ) $ 9,989 Total $ 10,000 $ — $ (11 ) $ 9,989 December 31, 2021 Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value U.S. treasury securities 10,000 — (4 ) 9,996 Total $ 10,000 $ — $ (4 ) $ 9,996 The following table summarizes the maturities of the Company’s marketable securities at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (in thousands): March 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 Amortized Cost Fair Value Amortized Cost Fair Value Due in less than 1 year $ 10,000 $ 9,989 $ 10,000 $ 9,996 Due in 1-2 years — — — — Total $ 10,000 $ 9,989 $ 10,000 $ 9,996 Guarantees As permitted under Delaware law, the Company indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while each such officer or director is, or was, serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The term of the indemnification is the officer’s or director’s lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make is unlimited; however, the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage that limits its exposure and enables the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company leases office, laboratory and manufacturing space under noncancelable operating leases. The Company has standard indemnification arrangements under the leases that require it to indemnify the landlords against all costs, expenses, fines, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, and actions directly resulting from any breach, violation or nonperformance of any covenant or condition of the Company’s leases. In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into indemnification agreements with certain suppliers and business partners where the Company has certain indemnification obligations limited to the costs, expenses, fines, suits, claims, demands, liabilities and actions directly resulting from the Company’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and in certain instances, breaches, violations or nonperformance of covenants or conditions under the agreements. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had not experienced any material losses related to these indemnification obligations, and no material claims with respect thereto were outstanding. The Company does not expect significant claims related to these indemnification obligations and, consequently, concluded that the fair value of these obligations is negligible, and no related reserves were established. Leases Pursuant to Topic 842, Leases In accordance with the guidance in ASC 842, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g. land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g. property taxes, insurance, etc.). Then the fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any related to non-components) must be allocated based on the respective relative fair values to the lease components and non-lease components. The Company made the policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components. Each lease component and the related non-lease components are accounted for together as a single component. Revenue Recognition The Company generates revenue from the sale of instruments, consumable diagnostic tests, related services, reagent rental agreements and government contributions. Pursuant to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers • Identification of a contract with a customer • Identification of the performance obligations in the contract • Determination of the transaction price • Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations • Recognition of revenue as a performance obligation is satisfied The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods and services. Once a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606 at contract inception, the Company reviews the contract to determine which performance obligations the Company must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. The Company recognizes as revenues the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied. Generally, the Company's performance obligations are transferred to customers at a point in time, typically upon shipment, or over time, as services are performed. Most of the Company’s contracts with distributors in geographic regions outside the United States contain only a single performance obligation, whereas most of the Company’s contracts with direct sales customers in the United States contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Excluded from the transaction price are sales tax and other similar taxes which are presented on a net basis. Product revenue is generated by the sale of instruments and consumable diagnostic tests predominantly through the Company’s direct sales force in the United States and distributors in geographic regions outside the United States. The Company does not offer product return or exchange rights (other than those relating to defective goods under warranty) or price protection allowances to its customers, including its distributors. Payment terms granted to distributors are the same as those granted to end-user customers and payments are not dependent upon the distributors’ receipt of payment from their end-user customers. The Company either sells instruments to customers and international distributors, or retains title and places the instrument at the customer site pursuant to a reagent rental agreement. When an instrument is purchased by a customer or international distributor, the Company recognizes revenue when the related performance obligation is satisfied (i.e. when the control of an instrument has passed to the customer; typically, at shipping point). When the instrument is placed under a reagent rental agreement, the Company’s customers generally agree to fixed term agreements, which can be extended, and incremental charges on each consumable diagnostic test purchased. Revenue from the sale of consumable diagnostic tests (under a reagent rental agreement) is generally recognized upon shipment. The transaction price from consumables purchases is allocated between the lease of the instrument (under a contingent rent methodology as provided for in ASC 842, Leases Revenue from the sale of consumable diagnostic tests (under instrument purchase agreements) is generally recognized upon shipment. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers in connection with a product sale are recorded as a component of the transaction price and allocated to product revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as they are incurred by the Company in fulfilling its performance obligations. Direct sales of instruments include warranty, maintenance and technical support services typically for one year following the installation of the purchased instrument (“Maintenance Services”). Maintenance Services are separate performance obligations as they are service-based warranties and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the service delivery period. After the completion of the initial Maintenance Services period, customers have the option to renew or extend the Maintenance Services typically for additional one-year Fees paid to member-owned group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”) are deducted from related product revenues. The Company warrants that consumable diagnostic tests will be free from defects, when handled according to product specifications, for the stated life of the product. To fulfill valid warranty claims, the Company provides replacement product free of charge. Warranty expense is recognized based on the estimated defect rates of the consumable diagnostic tests. Contribution Revenue Income under the government BARDA contract is earned under a cost-sharing arrangement in which the Company is reimbursed for direct costs incurred plus allowable indirect costs. The g overnment contract revenue is recognized as the related reimbursable expenses are incurred. The cost reimbursement that is reported as revenue is presented gross of the related reimbursable expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations; the related reimbursable expenses are expensed as incurred as research and development expense. The Company accounts for these contracts as a government grant which analogizes with International Accounting Standards 20 (“IAS 20”), Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance . The Company has a significant development contract with BARDA and should BARDA reduce, cancel or not grant additional milestone projects, the Company’s ability to continue future product development may be impacted. Refer to Note 11 for further details regarding the development contract with BARDA. Disaggregation of Revenue The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers by type of products and services, as it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The following table disaggregates our revenue by major source (in thousands): Three Months Ended, March 31, 2022 2021 Product revenue Instruments $ 876 $ 425 Consumables 2,950 4,206 Instrument rentals 18 19 Total product revenue 3,844 4,650 Contribution revenue 3,390 2,306 Total revenue $ 7,234 $ 6,956 Remaining Performance Obligations Under ASC 606, the Company is required to disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price that is allocated to unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations as of March 31, 2022. However, the guidance provides certain practical expedients that limit this requirement, and therefore, the Company has elected to not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. The nature of the excluded unsatisfied performance obligations pursuant to the practical expedient include consumable shipments, service contracts, warranties and installation services that will be performed within one year. The amount of the transaction price that is allocated to unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations, that has not yet been recognized as revenue and that does not meet the elected practical expedient is $0.2 million as of March 31, 2022. The Company expects to recognize 86% of this amount as revenue within one year and the remainder within two years. Significant Judgments Certain contracts with customers include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. Once the performance obligations are determined, the Company determines the transaction price, which includes estimating the amount of variable consideration, based on the most likely amount, to be included in the transaction price, if any. The Company then allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract based on a relative standalone selling price method. The corresponding revenue is recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied as discussed in the revenue categories above. Judgment is required to determine the standalone selling price for each distinct performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling price based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the standalone selling price taking into account available information such as a range of selling prices, market conditions and the expected costs and margin related to the performance obligations. Contract Assets and Liabilities The Company did not record any contract assets at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company’s contract liabilities consist of upfront payments for research and development contracts and maintenance services on instrument sales. Contract liabilities are classified in deferred revenue as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when revenue is expected to be recognized. Contract liabilities were $0.4 million and $0.5 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2022 relating to contract liabilities at December 31, 2021 was $0.2 million and related to straight-line revenue recognition associated with maintenance agreements. Cost to Obtain and Fulfill a Contract The Company capitalizes commission expenses paid to sales personnel that are recoverable and incremental to obtaining capital purchase agreements within the United States. These costs are classified as prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, based on their current or non-current nature, respectively. The Company capitalizes only those costs that are determined to be incremental and would not have occurred absent the customer contract. These capitalized costs are amortized as selling, general and administrative costs on a straight line basis over the expected period of benefit. These costs are reviewed periodically for impairment. At both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, capitalized costs to fulfill contracts of $0.1 million was included in prepaid and other current assets and less than $0.1 million was included in other non-current assets Cost of Product Revenue Cost of product revenue includes the cost of materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead costs used in the manufacture of consumable diagnostic tests sold to customers, related warranty and license and royalty fees. Cost of product revenue also includes depreciation on T2-owned revenue generating T2Dx instruments that have been placed with customers under reagent rental agreements; costs of materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead costs on the T2Dx instruments sold to customers; and other costs such as customer support costs, royalties and license fees, warranty and repair and maintenance expense on the T2Dx instruments that have been placed with customers under reagent rental agreements. Research and Development Costs Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s product candidates are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including activities associated with delivering products or services associated with contribution revenue, clinical trials to evaluate the clinical utility of our product candidates, and costs associated with the enhancements of developed products. These costs include salaries and benefits, stock compensation, research‑related facility and overhead costs, laboratory supplies, equipment and contract services. Recent Accounting Standards From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption. Accounting Standards Adopted In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (“ASU 2021-04”) In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance . This ASU requires certain disclosures when companies (a) have received government assistance and (b) use a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy to other accounting guidance. A company that has received government assistance must provide disclosures related to the nature of the transaction, accounting policies used to account for the transaction, and the amounts and line items on the financial statements that are affected by the transaction. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted, and can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2022. |
