(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
Exact Sciences Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Exact,” or the “Company”) was incorporated in February 1995. Exact is a leading global cancer diagnostics company. It has developed some of the most impactful tests in cancer screening and diagnostics, including Cologuard® and Oncotype DX®. Exact is currently working on the development of additional tests, with the goal of bringing new, innovative cancer tests to patients throughout the world.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of Exact Sciences Corporation and those of its wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities, are unaudited and have been prepared on a basis substantially consistent with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2021 Form 10-K”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. These condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and follow the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of adjustments of a normal and recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from audited financial statements, but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the 2021 Form 10-K. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year. The statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in the 2021 Form 10-K.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting policies are those that affect the Company’s financial statements materially and involve difficult, subjective or complex judgments by management, and actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates include revenue recognition, valuation of intangible assets and goodwill, and accounting for income taxes among others. The Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates are explained further in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report and the 2021 Form 10-K.
The spread of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has affected many segments of the global economy, including the cancer screening and diagnostics industry. The Company assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information in context with the information reasonably available to the Company and the unknown future impacts of COVID-19 as of September 30, 2022 and through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts and credit losses, marketable and non-marketable investments, software, and the carrying value of the goodwill and other long-lived assets. The Company’s future assessment of the magnitude and duration of COVID-19, as well as other factors, could result in additional material impacts to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.
The pandemic and related precautionary measures began to materially disrupt the Company's operations in March 2020 and may continue to disrupt the business for an unknown period of time. As a result, the pandemic had an impact on the Company’s revenues and operating results.
The ultimate impact of COVID-19 depends on factors beyond the Company’s knowledge or control, including the duration and severity of the outbreak, as well as third-party actions taken to contain its spread and mitigate its public health effects. As a result, the Company is unable to estimate the extent to which COVID-19 will negatively impact its financial results or liquidity.

Significant Accounting Policies
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there were no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K, except as described in the Collateralized Debt Instruments and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements sections below.
Collateralized Debt Instruments
Debt instruments that are collateralized by security interests in financial assets held by the Company are accounted for as a secured borrowing and therefore: (i) the asset balances pledged as collateral are included within the applicable balance sheet line item and the borrowings are included within long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheet; (ii) interest expense is included within the condensed consolidated statements of operations; and (iii) in the case of collateralized accounts receivable, receipts from customers related to the underlying accounts receivable are reflected as operating cash flows, and (iv) borrowings and repayments under the collateralized loans are reflected as financing cash flows within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805). This update requires that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606. This differs from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination at fair value. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively, and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company early adopted the amendments in this update during the first quarter of fiscal year 2022. There was no material impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) – Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. This update clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not part of the unit of account of the security and should not be considered in measuring fair value. The update also provides that an entity cannot recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction as a separate unit of account. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively, and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company early adopted the amendments in this update during the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. There was no material impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Basic and diluted net loss per share is the same because all outstanding common stock equivalents have been excluded, as they are anti-dilutive as a result of the Company’s losses.

(2) REVENUE

The Company evaluates investments that are in an unrealized loss position for impairment as a result of credit loss. It was determined that no credit losses exist as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, because the change in market value for those securities in an unrealized loss position has resulted from fluctuating interest rates rather than a deterioration of the credit worthiness of the issuers.
The gains and losses recorded on available-for-sale debt securities and equity securities are included in investment income, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The gains and losses recorded were not significant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

The Company’s acquired intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life.
On August 2, 2022, the Company completed a sale of the developed technology intangible asset related to the Oncotype DX Genomic Prostate Score® test (“GPS test”) to MDxHealth SA (“MDxHealth”), which was measured using the income approach to determine the fair value. The gross value of the intangible asset was $59.0 million with accumulated amortization of $16.1 million as of the closing date, resulting in a carrying value of $42.9 million, which was derecognized from intangible assets, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets upon completion of the divestiture. Refer to Note 16 for further information on this sale.
During the third quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a non-cash, pre-tax impairment loss of $2.0 million related to the supply agreement intangible asset that was initially recorded as part of the combination with Genomic Health due to the termination of the agreement, which reduced the carrying value to zero.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a non-cash, pre-tax impairment loss of $6.6 million related to the acquired developed technology intangible asset acquired as a result of the acquisition of Paradigm Diagnostics, Inc. due to lower than anticipated performance of the underlying product.
During the third quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a non-cash, pre-tax impairment loss of $20.2 million related to the supply agreement intangible asset that was initially recorded as part of the combination with Genomic Health due to lower than anticipated performance of the underlying product. The Company utilized the income approach to measure the fair value of the supply agreement, which involves significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).
The impairment charges recorded are included in impairment of long-lived assets in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

(7) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy established are as follows:
Level 1    Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2    Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3    Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

There have been no changes in valuation techniques or transfers between fair value measurement levels during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The fair value of Level 2 instruments classified as cash equivalents and marketable debt securities are valued using a third-party pricing agency where the valuation is based on observable inputs including pricing for similar assets and other observable market factors.
Contingent Consideration
The fair value of contingent consideration as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $305.9 million and $359.0 million, respectively, which was recorded in other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

(1)The increase in contingent consideration liability is due to the contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of OmicEra. Refer to Note 16 for further information.
This fair value measurement of contingent consideration is categorized as a Level 3 liability, as the measurement amount is based primarily on significant inputs not observable in the market.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability recorded related to regulatory and product development milestones associated with the acquisitions of Thrive Earlier Detection Corporation (“Thrive”), Ashion Analytics, LLC (“Ashion”), and OmicEra acquisitions was $304.8 million and $357.8 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company evaluates the fair value of the expected contingent consideration and the corresponding liability related to the regulatory and product development milestones using the probability-weighted scenario based discounted cash flow model, which is consistent with the initial measurement of the expected contingent consideration liabilities. Probabilities of success are applied to each potential scenario and the resulting values are discounted using a present-value factor. The passage of time in addition to changes in projected milestone achievement timing, present-value factor, the degree of achievement, if applicable, and probabilities of success may result in adjustments to the fair value measurement. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability recorded related to regulatory and product development milestones was determined using a weighted average probability of success of 91% as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and a weighted average present-value factor of 7.1% and 2.3% as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The projected fiscal year of payment range is from 2024 to 2027. Unobservable inputs were weighted by the relative fair value of the contingent consideration liability.
The fair value of the contingent consideration earnout liability related to certain revenue milestones associated with the Biomatrica acquisition was $1.2 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The revenue milestone associated with the Ashion acquisition is not expected to be achieved and therefore no liability has been recorded for this milestone.
Non-Marketable Equity Investments
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the aggregate carrying amounts of the Company’s non-marketable equity securities without readily determinable fair values were $39.5 million and $25.3 million, respectively, which are classified as a component of other long-term assets, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Since initial recognition of these investments, there have been no material upward or downward adjustments as a result of observable price changes. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company determined that one of its investments was fully impaired and recorded a $10.0 million realized loss.
The Company has committed capital to venture capital investment funds (the “Funds”) of $17.5 million, of which $14.2 million remained callable through 2033 as of September 30, 2022. The aggregate carrying amount of the Funds, which are classified as a component of other long-term assets, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, were $3.4 million and $1.5 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts on the last day of each month to mitigate the impact of adverse movements in foreign exchange rates related to the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities and hedge the Company’s foreign currency exchange rate exposure. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had open foreign currency forward contracts with notional amounts of $29.7 million and $46.7 million, respectively. The Company's foreign exchange derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy as they are valued using inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. The fair value of the open foreign currency forward contracts was zero at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and there were no gains or losses recorded to adjust the fair value of the open foreign currency contract held as of September 30, 2022. The contracts are closed subsequent to each month-end, and the gains and losses recorded from the contracts were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

(8) LONG-TERM DEBT
Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility
On June 29, 2022, the Company, through a wholly-owned special purpose entity, Exact Receivables LLC (“Exact Receivables”) entered into an accounts receivable securitization program (the “Securitization Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), with a scheduled maturity date of June 29, 2024. The Securitization Facility provides Exact Receivables with a revolving line-of-credit of up to $150.0 million of borrowing capacity, subject to certain borrowing base requirements, by collateralizing a security interest in the domestic customer accounts receivable of certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. The amount available under the Securitization Facility fluctuates over time based on the total amount of eligible customer accounts receivable generated by the Company during the normal course of operations. The Securitization Facility requires the Company to maintain minimum borrowings under the facility of $50.0 million. The debt issuance costs incurred related to the Securitization Facility were not material and are being amortized over the life of the Securitization Facility through interest expense within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In connection with the Securitization Facility, the Company also entered into two Receivables Purchase Agreements (“Receivable Purchase Agreements”) on June 29, 2022. The Receivable Purchase Agreements are among the Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, and between the Company and Exact Receivables. Under the agreements, the wholly-owned subsidiaries sell all of their right, title and interest of their accounts receivable to Exact Receivables. The receivables are used to collateralize borrowings made under the Securitization Facility. The Company retains the responsibility of servicing the accounts receivable balances pledged as collateral under the Securitization Facility and provides a performance guaranty.
As of September 30, 2022, the eligible borrowing base under the Securitization Facility was $99.7 million of which the Company elected to collateralize $50.0 million. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had an outstanding balance of $50.0 million, which is recorded to long-term debt on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The outstanding balance accrues interest at a rate equal to a daily secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) rate plus a SOFR adjustment and an applicable margin. The interest rate was 4.59% at September 30, 2022.
Revolving Loan Agreement
During November 2021, the Company entered into a revolving loan agreement (the “Revolving Loan Agreement”) with PNC. The Revolving Loan Agreement provides the Company with a revolving line of credit of up to $150.0 million (the “Revolver”). The Revolver is collateralized by the Company’s marketable securities held by PNC, which must continue to maintain a minimum market value of $150.0 million. The Revolver is available for general working capital purposes and all other lawful corporate purposes. In addition, the Company may request, in lieu of cash advances, letters of credit with an aggregate stated amount outstanding not to exceed $20.0 million. The availability of advances under the line of credit will be reduced by the stated amount of each letter of credit issued and outstanding.
Borrowings under the Revolving Loan Agreement accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the sum of the daily Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index Rate plus the applicable margin of 0.60%. Loans under the Revolving Loan Agreement may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The maturity date under the Revolving Loan Agreement was November 5, 2023. In October 2022 the Revolving Loan Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to November 5, 2025. There were no other amendments to the Revolver.
The Company has agreed to various financial covenants under the Revolving Loan Agreement, and as of September 30, 2022, the Company is in compliance with all covenants.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, PNC issued a letter of credit of $2.9 million, which reduced the amount available for cash advances under the line of credit to $147.1 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has not drawn funds from, nor are any amounts outstanding under, the Revolving Loan Agreement.

Summary of Conversion Features
Until the six-months immediately preceding the maturity date of the applicable series of the Company’s convertible notes (the “Notes”), each series of Notes is convertible only upon the occurrence of certain events and during certain periods, as set forth in the Indentures filed at the time of the original offerings. On or after the date that is six-months immediately preceding the maturity date of the applicable series of Notes until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert such Notes at any time. The Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock (plus, if applicable, cash in lieu of any fractional share), or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock, at the Company’s election.
It is the Company’s intent and policy to settle all conversions through combination settlement. The initial conversion rate is 13.26, 8.96, and 8.21 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount for the convertible notes due in 2025 (“2025 Notes”), 2027 (“2027 Notes”), and 2028 (“2028 Notes”), respectively, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $75.43, $111.66, and $121.84 per share of the Company’s common stock for the 2025 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2028 Notes, respectively. The 2025 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2028 Notes are potentially convertible into up to 4.2 million, 6.7 million, and 9.4 million shares, respectively. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events as set forth in the Indentures filed at the time of the original offerings but will not be adjusted for accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, holders of the Notes who convert their Notes in connection with a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the Indenture), will, under certain circumstances, be entitled to an increase in the conversion rate.
If the Company undergoes a “fundamental change” (as defined in the Indenture), holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
Based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $32.49 on September 30, 2022, the if-converted values on the Notes do not exceed the principal amount.

(10) LICENSE AND COLLABORATION AGREEMENTS
The Company licenses certain technologies that are, or may be, incorporated into its technology under several license agreements, as well as the rights to commercialize certain diagnostic tests through collaboration agreements.

Mayo
In June 2009, the Company entered into a license agreement with the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (“Mayo”). The Company’s license agreement with Mayo was most recently amended and restated in September 2020. Under the license agreement, Mayo granted the Company an exclusive, worldwide license to certain Mayo patents and patent applications, as well as a non-exclusive, worldwide license with regard to certain Mayo know-how. The scope of the license covers any screening, surveillance or diagnostic test or tool for use in connection with any type of cancer, pre-cancer, disease or condition.
The licensed Mayo patents and patent applications contain both method and composition claims that relate to sample processing, analytical testing and data analysis associated with nucleic acid screening for cancers and other diseases. The jurisdictions covered by these patents and patent applications include the U.S., Australia, Canada, the European Union, China, Japan and Korea. Under the license agreement, the Company assumed the obligation and expense of prosecuting and maintaining the licensed Mayo patents and is obligated to make commercially reasonable efforts to bring to market products using the licensed Mayo intellectual property.
Pursuant to the Company’s agreement with Mayo, the Company is required to pay Mayo a low-single-digit royalty on the Company’s net sales of current and future products using the licensed Mayo intellectual property each year during the term of the Mayo agreement.
As part of the most recent amendment, the Company agreed to pay Mayo an additional $6.3 million, payable in five equal annual installments through 2024. The annual installments are recorded in research and development expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The license agreement will remain in effect, unless earlier terminated by the parties in accordance with the agreement, until the last of the licensed patents expires in 2039 (or later, if certain licensed patent applications are issued). However, if the Company is still using the licensed Mayo know-how or certain Mayo-provided biological specimens or their derivatives on such expiration date, the term shall continue until the earlier of the date the Company stops using such know-how and materials and the date that is five years after the last licensed patent expires. The license agreement contains customary termination provisions and permits Mayo to terminate the license agreement if the Company sues Mayo or its affiliates, other than any such suit claiming an uncured material breach by Mayo of the license agreement.
In addition to granting the Company a license to the covered Mayo intellectual property, Mayo provides the Company with product development and research and development assistance pursuant to the license agreement and other collaborative arrangements. In September 2020, Mayo also agreed to make available certain personnel to provide such assistance through January 2025. In connection with this collaboration, the Company incurred charges of $1.5 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company incurred charges of $4.2 million and $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The charges incurred in connection with this collaboration are recorded in research and development expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Johns Hopkins University (“JHU”)
Through the acquisition of Thrive, the Company acquired a worldwide exclusive license agreement with JHU for use of several JHU patents and licensed know-how. The license is designed to enable the Company to leverage JHU proprietary data in the development and commercialization of a blood-based, multi-cancer early detection test. The agreement terms include single-digit sales-based royalties and sales-based milestone payments of $10.0 million, $15.0 million, and $20.0 million upon achieving calendar year licensed product revenue using JHU proprietary data of $0.50 billion, $1.00 billion, and $1.50 billion, respectively.

(11) PFIZER PROMOTION AGREEMENT
In August 2018, the Company entered into a Promotion Agreement (the “Original Promotion Agreement”) with Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”), which was amended and restated in October 2020 (the “Restated Promotion Agreement”). The Restated Promotion Agreement extended the relationship between the Company and Pfizer and restructured the manner in which the Company compensates Pfizer for promotion of the Cologuard test through a service fee, and provision of certain other sales and marketing services related to the Cologuard test. The Restated Promotion Agreement included fixed and performance-related

fees, some of which retroactively went into effect on April 1, 2020. In November 2021, the Company and Pfizer entered into an amendment to the Restated Promotion Agreement (the “November 2021 Amendment”), which provided that after November 30, 2021, Pfizer will no longer promote the Cologuard test to healthcare providers. The November 2021 Amendment provides that the Company will pay Pfizer a total of $35.9 million in three installments during the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2022. The November 2021 Amendment eliminated the Company's obligation to pay Pfizer royalties or other fees except for certain media fees, advertising fees, and any detail fees owed to Pfizer for promoting the Cologuard test prior to November 30, 2021. The $35.9 million fee incurred as a result of the November 2021 Amendment was recognized in full during the fourth quarter of 2021. All payments to Pfizer are recorded in sales and marketing expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Under the Original Promotion Agreement, the service fee was calculated based on incremental gross profits over specified baselines during the term. Under the Restated Promotion Agreement (and prior to giving effect to the November 2021 Amendment), the service fee provided a fee-for-service model that included certain fixed fees and performance-related bonuses. The performance-related bonuses were contingent upon the achievement of certain annual performance criteria with any applicable expense being recognized ratably upon achievement of the payment becoming probable. The Company incurred charges of $2.5 million and $16.8 million for the service fee for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company incurred charges of $7.5 million and $63.6 million for the service fee for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company incurred charges of $20.6 million and $30.2 million for promotion, sales and marketing services performed by Pfizer on behalf of the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company incurred charges of $86.1 million and $88.0 million for promotion, sales and marketing services performed by Pfizer on behalf of the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Performance Share Units
The Company has issued performance-based equity awards to certain employees which vest upon the achievement of certain performance goals, including financial performance targets and operational milestones.
In January 2022, the Company issued additional performance-based equity awards, which include a market condition in the form of a total shareholder return (“TSR”) modifier. At the end of the three-year performance period, the total units earned, if any, are adjusted by applying the modifier, ranging from 50% to 150%. The TSR modifier is based on stock price performance relative to a group of peer companies for the same three-year period. The fair value of the awards granted was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model, as the TSR modifier contains a market condition.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s right-of-use assets from finance leases are $10.8 million and $18.2 million, respectively, which are reported in other long-term assets, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has outstanding finance lease obligations of $11.1 million, of which $3.1 million is reported in other current liabilities and $8.0 million is reported in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On June 1, 2022, certain of the Company’s vehicle leases were amended. The Company determined that this amendment was a lease modification, effective June 1, 2022. Under the lease modification guidance within ASC 842, the Company reassessed the lease classification and remeasured the corresponding right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The Company determined that a portion of the modified leases are to be accounted for as operating leases, and therefore derecognized the previous finance lease right-of-use asset of $10.3 million and the related finance lease liability of $10.8 million, and recognized an operating lease right-of-use asset of $8.1 million and the related operating lease liability of $8.6 million.

The Company records reserves and accrues costs for certain legal proceedings and regulatory matters to the extent that it determines an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. While such reserves and accrued costs reflect the Company’s best estimate of the probable loss for such matters, the recorded amounts may differ materially from the actual amount of any such losses. In some cases, no estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of amounts accrued, if any, can be made because of the inherently unpredictable nature of legal and regulatory proceedings, which may be exacerbated by various factors, including but not limited to, they may involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages or may involve fines, penalties or punitive damages; present novel legal theories or legal uncertainties; involve disputed facts; represent a shift in regulatory policy; involve a large number of parties, claimants or regulatory bodies; are in the early stages of the proceedings; involve a number of separate proceedings and/or a wide range of potential outcomes; or result in a change of business practices.
As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, amounts accrued for legal proceedings and regulatory matters were not material except for the amounts accrued related to the Medicare Date of Service Rule Investigation (the “DOS Rule Investigation”) discussed below. However, it is possible that in a particular quarter or annual period the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and/or liquidity could be materially adversely affected by an ultimate unfavorable resolution of, or development in, legal and/or regulatory proceedings, including as described below. Except for the proceedings discussed below, the Company believes that the ultimate outcome of any of the regulatory and legal proceedings that are currently pending against it should not have a material adverse effect on financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or liquidity.
The Company is currently responding to civil investigative demands and administrative subpoenas issued pursuant to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 by the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) concerning Genomic Health’s compliance with the Medicare Date of Service billing regulations. The Company has been cooperating with these inquiries and has produced documents in response thereto.
During the second quarter of 2021, as part of ongoing discussions between the DOJ and the Company regarding the DOS Rule Investigation, the DOJ presented an initial estimate of civil damages in the amount of $48.2 million relating to alleged non-compliance with the Medicare Date of Service billing regulations from 2007 to 2020. The initial civil damages estimate did not include potential treble damages, civil or criminal penalties or other remedies that the DOJ could seek against the Company. The DOJ has since presented a total adjusted demand of $53.8 million for civil damages, which includes a multiplier and penalties. Based on the Company’s review and analysis of the DOJ presentation, ongoing discussions held with the DOJ, the civil damages estimate, and range of potential exposure, the Company recorded an accrual of approximately $10 million as of September 30, 2022.
As noted above, litigation outcomes are difficult to predict, and the estimation of probable losses requires an analysis of multiple possible outcomes that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties. Accordingly, the recorded accrual of approximately $10 million as of September 30, 2022 is based on several factors, considerations, and judgments, and the ultimate resolution of this matter could result in a material loss in excess of the recorded accrual.

On June 24, 2019, Niles Rosen M.D. filed a sealed ex parte qui tam lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, that alleged a violation of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute and False Claims Act for offering gift cards to patients in exchange for returning the Cologuard screening test (the “Qui Tam Suit”). Dr. Rosen seeks on behalf of the U.S. government and himself an award of civil penalties, treble damages and fees and costs. On February 25, 2020, the Company received a civil investigative demand by the DOJ related to the Company’s gift card program. The Company produced documents in response thereto. On March 25, 2021, the DOJ filed a notice of its election to decline intervention in the Qui Tam Suit. This election does not prevent Dr. Rosen from continuing the Qui Tam Suit. On April 12, 2021, Dr. Rosen filed an amended complaint against the Company, alleging violations of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute and False Claims Act. The Company first learned of the Qui Tam Suit and the DOJ’s election to decline intervention in July 2021. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against Dr. Rosen's claims and seek, among other things, the Company’s attorneys' fees and costs incurred in defending this action. Although the Company denies Dr. Rosen's allegations and believes that it has meritorious defenses to his False Claims Act claims, neither the outcome of the litigation nor can a reasonable estimate or an estimated range of loss associated with the litigation be determined at this time.
Adverse outcomes from the DOS Rule Investigation and the Qui Tam Suit could include the Company being required to pay treble damages, incur civil and criminal penalties, paying attorneys’ fees, entering into a corporate integrity agreement, being excluded from participation in government healthcare programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, and other adverse actions that could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operation.

(15) WISCONSIN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TAX CREDITS
During February 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (“WEDC,” “Original WEDC Agreement”) to earn $9.0 million in refundable tax credits on the condition that the Company expends $26.3 million in capital investments and establishes and maintains 758 full-time positions over a seven-year period.
During December 2021, the Company amended its agreement with the WEDC (“Amended WEDC Agreement”) to earn an additional $18.5 million in refundable tax credits on the condition that the Company expends $350.0 million in capital investments and establishes and maintains 1,300 additional full-time positions over a five-year period. The capital investment credits are earned at a rate of 10% of eligible capital investments up to a maximum of $7.0 million, while the jobs creation credits are earned annually pursuant to the agreement.
The tax credits earned are first applied against the tax liability otherwise due, and if there is no such liability present, the claim for tax credits will be reimbursed in cash to the Company. The maximum amount of the refundable tax credit to be earned for each year is fixed, and the Company earns the credits by meeting certain capital investment and job creation thresholds over the term of the agreement. Should the Company earn and receive the job creation tax credits but not maintain those full-time positions through the end of the agreement, the Company may be required to pay those credits back to the WEDC.
Under the Original WEDC Agreement, the Company recorded the earned tax credits as job creation and capital investments occurred. The tax credits earned from capital investment are being recognized as an offset to depreciation expense over the expected life of the acquired capital assets. The tax credits earned related to job creation were recognized as an offset to operational expenses through December 31, 2020.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company has earned all $9.0 million of the refundable tax credits and has received payment of $9.0 million from the WEDC under the Original WEDC Agreement.
Under the Amended WEDC Agreement, the Company records the earned tax credits as job creation and capital investments occurs. The tax credits earned from capital investment are recognized as a reduction to capital expenditures at the time the costs are incurred, and then as an offset to depreciation expense over the expected life of the acquired capital assets. The tax credits earned related to job creation are recognized as an offset to operational expenses in the period in which the credits are earned. The credits recognized will be required to be repaid if the Company does not maintain minimum cumulative job requirements.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company has earned $9.0 million of the refundable tax credits under the Amended WEDC Agreement. The unpaid portion is $9.0 million as of September 30, 2022, of which $1.7 million is reported in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $7.3 million is reported in other long-term assets, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets reflecting when collection of the refundable tax credits is expected to occur.

Business Combinations
OmicEra Diagnostics, GmbH
On May 2, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition (the “OmicEra Acquisition”) of all of the outstanding equity interests of OmicEra Diagnostics GmbH. The OmicEra Acquisition provided the Company a state-of-the-art proteomics lab based in Planegg, Germany. OmicEra combines its mass spectrometry-based proteome analysis technology with its in-house proteomics scientific expertise to discover more reliable and valuable protein biomarkers, which will expand the Company’s research and development capabilities. The Company has included the financial results of OmicEra in the consolidated financial statements from the date of the combination.
The combination date fair value of the consideration transferred for OmicEra was approximately $19.4 million, which consisted of the following:
(In thousands)
Common stock issued$14,792 
Contingent consideration4,600 
Working capital adjustment to be settled in cash16 
Total purchase price$19,408 
The fair value of the 265,186 common shares issued as part of the consideration transferred was determined on the basis of the average of the high and low market price of the Company’s shares on the acquisition date, which was $55.78.
The purchase agreement requires the Company to pay a maximum of $6.0 million of additional cash consideration to OmicEra upon the achievement of certain earnout conditions related to the identification of protein biomarkers, as well as the growth of the proteomics research and development team. The fair value of the contingent consideration at the acquisition date was $4.6 million. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a probability-weighted scenario-based discounted cash flow model. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The key assumptions are described in Note 7.
The purchase price was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values including immaterial measurement period adjustments as follows:
(In thousands)
Net operating assets$2,586 
Developed technology10,000 
Total identifiable assets acquired12,586 
Net operating liabilities(3,987)
Net identifiable assets acquired8,599 
Goodwill10,809

The Company recorded $10.0 million of identifiable intangible assets related to the developed technology associated with OmicEra’s proteome analysis platform. Developed technology represents purchased technology that had reached technological feasibility and for which OmicEra had substantially completed development as of the date of combination. The fair value of the developed technology has been determined using the income approach multi-period excess earnings method, which involves significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). These inputs include projected sales, margin, obsolescence factor, required rate of return, and tax rate. Cash flows were discounted to their present value as of the closing date. Developed technology is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 16 years.
The calculation of the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired was recorded to goodwill, which is primarily attributed to the acquired workforce expertise, the potential to enhance the capabilities of current and future products, and expected research and development synergies. The total goodwill related to this combination is not deductible for tax purposes.
The total purchase price allocation is preliminary and based upon estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the measurement period as additional information for the estimates is obtained. The measurement period remains open pending the completion of valuation procedures related to certain acquired assets and liabilities assumed, primarily in connection with the developed technology intangible asset.
Pro forma impact and results of operations disclosures have not been included due to immateriality.
Acquisition-related costs were not material and have been recorded within general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. These costs include fees associated with financial, legal, accounting, and other advisors incurred to complete the merger.

The Company had $26.0 million and $21.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. These amounts have been recorded as a reduction to the Company’s deferred tax asset, if recognized they would not have an impact on the effective tax rate due to the existing valuation allowance. Certain of the Company's unrecognized tax benefits could change due to activities of various tax authorities, including possible settlement of audits, or through normal expiration of various statutes of limitations. The Company does not expect a material change in unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months.
As of September 30, 2022, due to the carryforward of unutilized net operating losses and research and development credits, the Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for the tax years 2002 through 2022, and to state income tax examinations for the tax years 2002 through 2022.

Overview
Exact Sciences Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Exact,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a leading, global, advanced cancer diagnostics company. We have developed some of the most impactful tests in cancer diagnostics, and we are currently working on the development of additional tests, with the goal of bringing new, innovative cancer tests to patients throughout the world.

Acquisitions and Divestitures
On August 2, 2022, we completed the sale of the intellectual property and know-how related to our Oncotype DX Genomic Prostate Score® test (“GPS test”) to MDxHealth SA ("MDxHealth"). We believe this will allow our team to focus on the highest impact projects core to our vision. As a result of the transaction, certain members of our dedicated urology teams transitioned to MDxHealth, a commercial-stage precision diagnostics company focused solely on prostate cancer and other urologic diseases. To ensure a smooth transition for patients, we have agreed to provide certain transitional services to MDxHealth, including employee leasing and lab services.
Refer to Note 16 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for full discussion of acquisitions and divestitures completed during the year.

Our Screening Tests
Colorectal Cancer Screening
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States and the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States among non-smokers. Each year in the United States there are approximately 150,000 new cases of colorectal cancer and 53,000 deaths. It is widely accepted that colorectal cancer is among the most preventable, yet least prevented cancers.
Our Cologuard® test is a non-invasive stool-based DNA (“sDNA”) screening test that utilizes a multi-target approach to detect DNA and hemoglobin biomarkers associated with colorectal cancer and pre-cancer. Upon approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in August 2014, our Cologuard test became the first and only FDA-approved sDNA non-invasive colorectal cancer screening test. Our Cologuard test is now indicated for average risk adults 45 years of age and older.
Clinical Genetic Testing
We provide more than 5,000 predefined genetic tests for nearly all clinically relevant genes, additional custom panels, and comprehensive germline, whole exome (“PGxome®”), and whole genome (“PGnome®”) sequencing tests.

Our hereditary cancer test, RiskguardTM, helps people understand their inherited risk of cancer, arming them with critical information to make better treatment decisions.

Our Precision Oncology Tests
Our portfolio delivers actionable genomic insights to inform prognosis and cancer treatment after a diagnosis. In breast cancer, the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score® test is the only test shown to predict the likelihood of chemotherapy benefit as well as recurrence in invasive breast cancer. The Oncotype DX® test is recognized as the standard of care and is included in all major breast cancer treatment guidelines. The Oncomap™ ExTra test applies comprehensive tumor profiling, utilizing whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing, to aid in therapy selection for patients with advanced, metastatic, refractory, relapsed, or recurrent cancer. With an extensive panel of approximately 20,000 genes and 169 introns, the Oncomap ExTra test is one of the most comprehensive genomic (DNA) and transcriptomic (RNA) panels available today. We enable patients to take a more active role in their cancer care and makes it easy for providers to order tests, interpret results, and personalize medicine by applying real-world evidence and guideline recommendations.

International Business Background and Products
We commercialize our Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score test internationally through employees in Canada, Japan and eight European countries, as well as through exclusive distribution agreements. We have provided our Oncotype tests in more than 90 countries outside of the United States. We do not offer our Cologuard test or COVID-19 testing outside of the United States.

Pipeline Research and Development
Our research and development efforts are focused on developing new products and enhancing existing products to address unmet cancer needs and expand the clinical utility and addressable patient populations for our existing tests. We expect to advance liquid biopsy through biomarker discovery and validation in tissue, blood, or other fluids and to leverage recent business development activities to accelerate our leadership in earlier cancer detection and treatment guidance. We are pursuing the following opportunities:
Colorectal Cancer Screening. We are seeking opportunities to improve upon our Cologuard test’s performance characteristics. In January 2022, we and Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (“Mayo”) presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium findings from a study including prospectively collected samples that showed overall sensitivity of 95% for colorectal cancer at specificity of 92%. Subgroup analyses showed 83% sensitivity for high-grade dysplasia, the most dangerous pre-cancerous lesions, and 57% for all advanced pre-cancerous lesions. To establish the performance of an enhanced multi-target stool DNA test, we expect to enroll up to 29,000 patients 40 years of age and older in our multi-center, prospective BLUE-C study. The timing of any such enhancements to our Cologuard test is unknown and would be subject to FDA approval. We are also working to develop a blood-based screening test for colorectal cancer.
Multi-Cancer Early Detection (“MCED”) Test Development. We are currently seeking to develop a blood-based, MCED test. In January 2021, we completed the acquisition of Thrive Earlier Detection Corporation (“Thrive”), a healthcare company dedicated to developing a blood-based, MCED test. We are combining Thrive's expertise with our scientific capabilities, clinical organization, and commercial infrastructure to bring an accurate blood-based, multi-cancer early detection test to patients. In September 2022, we announced data at the European Society for Medical Oncology (“ESMO”) Congress from a biomarker validation study, which demonstrated the ability to detect cancer signals from 15 organ sites, including 11 with no screening option available today, with a mean sensitivity of 61% and mean specificity of 98.2%. The multi-biomarker approach detected stage I and stage II cancers with a combined sensitivity of 38.7%. A larger case-control study is underway to further validate the results shared at ESMO and to determine the final design of the MCED test. We will then begin recruiting patients for the FDA registrational Study of All comeRs (“SOAR”) trial during 2023. We expect that the SOAR trial will be the largest prospective, interventional MCED trial ever conducted in the United States.
Minimal Residual Disease (“MRD”) Test Development. We plan to offer both a tumor-informed and tumor-naive minimal residual disease test to help detect small amounts of tumor DNA that may remain in patients’ blood after they have undergone initial treatment. Our goal is to support all patients in MRD and recurrence monitoring, whether there is access to tumor tissue to inform patient-specific biomarker targets or no access to tissue such that a predefined biomarker panel is used. We are currently evaluating different technological approaches for both test types. In January 2021, we acquired an exclusive license to The Translational Genomics Research Institute (“TGen”) proprietary Targeted Digital Sequencing (“TARDIS”) technology to support development of our tumor-informed test. We have also published proof of concept data showing the ability of cancer-associated methylation markers to detect distantly recurrent colorectal cancer with promising performance.
Hereditary Cancer Testing. In December 2021, we acquired PreventionGenetics, LLC (“PreventionGenetics”), a DNA testing laboratory that provides more than 5,000 predefined genetic tests for nearly all clinically relevant genes, additional custom panels, and comprehensive germline whole exome and whole genome sequencing tests. We intend to use PreventionGenetics' capabilities to expand the use of hereditary cancer testing in the U.S. and globally. In the third quarter of 2022, we made our hereditary cancer test, Riskguard, available to oncologists through an early-access program.
Research and development, which includes our clinical study programs, accounts for a material portion of our operating expenses. As we seek to enhance our current product portfolio and expand our product pipeline by developing additional cancer screening and diagnostic tests, we expect that our research and development expenditures will continue to increase.

COVID-19 Testing Business
In late March 2020, we began providing COVID-19 testing. We have partnered with various customers, including the State of Wisconsin Department of Health Services, to administer testing. Customers are responsible for employing trained personnel to collect specimens. Specimens are sent to our laboratory in Madison, Wisconsin, where we run the assay in our laboratories and provide test results to ordering providers. As public health impacts of COVID-19 evolve, we intend to periodically reassess offering COVID-19 testing.

2022 Priorities
Our top priorities for 2022 are to (1) impact more lives, (2) advance new tests, and (3) take care of the people we serve.
Impact More Lives
We are committed to delivering critical answers to patients by getting more people tested with our laboratory testing services.
Advance New Tests
In 2022, we are focused on advancing new tests to provide better answers to patients, beginning with assessing risk for cancer through screening, and then changing the way cancer is detected and treated throughout the entire cancer journey. We plan to prioritize investments in clinical studies to support our three most important product development programs: (1) colon cancer screening tests, (2) multi-cancer early detection, and (3) minimal residual disease and recurrence testing.
Take Care of the People we Serve
We want to take even better care of everyone we serve. We plan to improve customer relations by delivering simple and smooth workflows, providing communication that is clear and easy to understand, and providing results that are fast and accurate. Our goal is to become a caring partner to answer questions and help people navigate what is a difficult time in their life.

Recent Developments and Trends
Impacts of COVID-19 and Current Inflationary Environment
COVID-19 has affected many segments of the global economy, including the cancer screening and diagnostics industry. The pandemic and related precautionary measures have significantly impacted, and may continue to impact, our workforce, supply chain, and operating results including our testing volumes, revenues, margins, and cash utilization, among other measures. The level and nature of the disruption caused by COVID-19 is unpredictable, may be cyclical, and long-lasting and may vary from location to location. As a result of the pandemic, we continue to provide COVID-19 testing. Our Screening and Precision Oncology businesses were negatively impacted by the pandemic but have in large part recovered. Future outbreaks of COVID-19 and its variants could diminish patients’ and our sales representatives’ access to healthcare provider offices. Pandemic-related supply chain disruptions, whether caused by restrictions or slowdowns in shipping or logistics, increases in demand for certain goods used in our operations, or otherwise, could impact our operations.
The inflationary environment has resulted in higher prices, which have impacted costs incurred to generate revenue from our laboratory testing services, costs to attract and retain personnel, and other operating costs. The severity and duration of the current inflationary environment remains uncertain and may continue to impact our financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect our financial position and results of operations. With the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies, the remeasurement of our foreign currency denominated transactions has resulted in decreased revenues. While the impact has not been material to our financial position to date and we make efforts to hedge our foreign currency exchange rate exposure, we cannot predict the extent to which currency fluctuations may affect our business and financial position in the future.

Cologuard Promotion
In March 2022, we announced our partnership with Katie Couric, award winning journalist and colorectal cancer advocate, to continue to highlight the urgent need for people to get screened. Entitled ‘Mission to Screen,’ the year-long marketing and social-media campaign is educating Americans on the importance of early detection, starting colon cancer screening at age 45 for average risk individuals, and the availability of multiple screening options. 'Mission to Screen' is being placed in broadcast and digital outlets. It includes a national television commercial, a website featuring interviews with real doctors and patients, and a social media initiative encouraging people to share their reasons to screen.

Results of Operations
We have generated significant losses since inception and, as of September 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $3.14 billion. We expect to continue to incur losses for the near future, and it is possible we may never achieve profitability.
Revenue. Our revenue is primarily generated by our laboratory testing services from our Cologuard, Oncotype, and COVID-19 tests.

Total$1,531.3 $1,293.3 $238.0 
The increase in Screening revenue, which primarily includes laboratory service revenue from our Cologuard test, was mainly due to an increase in the number of completed Cologuard tests and revenue generated from new products as a result of our acquisition of PreventionGenetics in the fourth quarter of 2021. Improved sales team productivity, more patients rescreening with our Cologuard test, and first-time users in the 45 to 49 age group contributed to the increase in completed Cologuard tests for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Relative recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to sales team productivity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in Precision Oncology revenue, which primarily includes laboratory service revenue from our global Oncotype products, was mainly due to an increase in the number of completed Oncotype tests, both domestically and internationally, and revenue generated from new products as a result of our acquisition of Ashion Analytics, LLC (“Ashion”) in the second quarter of 2021. Continued adoption by node-positive patients following the RxPONDER publication in the New England Journal of Medicine also contributed to the increase in completed Oncotype tests for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in completed Oncotype tests was partially offset by a decrease in revenues from our GPS test, which was divested on August 2, 2022.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, revenue recognized from changes in transaction price was $6.4 million and $17.6 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, there was a downward adjustment to revenue from a change in transaction price of $0.2 million and $13.2 million, respectively. The increase to revenue in 2022 is a result of improvements made in our order to cash operations, specifically within our billing systems and processes.

Table of Contents
We expect continuing revenue growth for our Cologuard and Oncotype products subject to seasonal variability. We would expect revenue from our COVID-19 testing to decline as the pandemic abates and alternative testing options become more widely available. Our revenues are affected by the test volume of our products, patient adherence rates, payer mix, the levels of reimbursement, our order to cash operations, and payment patterns of payers and patients.
Cost of sales (exclusive of amortization of acquired intangible assets). Cost of sales includes costs related to inventory production and usage, shipment of collection kits and tissue samples, royalties and the cost of services to process tests and provide results to healthcare providers. The increase in cost of sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 is primarily due to an increase in production costs and personnel expenses, which is primarily due to an increase in completed Cologuard and Oncotype tests and the corresponding increase in headcount to support the increase in tests completed. In addition, our production costs and personnel expenses have risen as a result of the inflationary environment discussed above. The increase was partially offset by a reduction in the number of COVID-19 tests completed year over year. We expect that cost of sales will generally continue to increase in future periods as a result of an increase in our existing laboratory testing services and as we launch our pipeline products. We also expect to see a corresponding increase in personnel and support services associated with this growth.

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 included $52.3 million for the acquisition of the exclusive license to TARDIS in January 2021 and $33.1 million incurred for the acquisition of PFS Genomics, Inc., which was completed in June 2021. These acquisitions were accounted for as asset acquisitions, as opposed to the May 2022 acquisition of OmicEra Diagnostics GmbH, which was accounted for as a business combination, and are further described in Note 16 of our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. When excluding the impact of these asset acquisitions, research and development expenses increased by $15.4 million and $87.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to an increase in BLUE-C and MCED clinical trial related expenses. In addition, personnel expenses and facility and support services increased due to an increase in headcount and other resources needed to support our ongoing clinical trials, which was partially offset by favorable stock-based compensation expense primarily driven by a decrease in expense associated with equity awards issued in connection with the Thrive acquisition. We expect that research and development expenses will generally continue to increase in future periods as we continue to invest to advance new tests.

Sales and marketing expenses. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in professional and legal fees incurred related to our promotion agreement with Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”), which was amended in the fourth quarter of 2021 as further discussed in Note 11 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This was partially offset by an increase in personnel expenses and direct marketing spend. The increase in sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to an increase in direct marketing spend to support the future growth of our products and increased personnel expenses and stock-based compensation as a result of an increase in headcount, including the approximately 400 former Pfizer sales representatives that were onboarded in the third quarter of 2021. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in professional and legal fees related to our promotion agreement with Pfizer. We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase in future periods to support growth of our Cologuard, Oncotype, and pipeline products, but expect it to decrease as a percentage of revenue over time.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 included $10.2 million and $141.4 million in acquisition and integration related costs as part of our acquisitions completed during the year, which primarily consisted of integration related stock-based compensation and professional and legal fees incurred. Acquisition and integration related costs were not significant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. When excluding the impact of acquisition and integration related costs, personnel expenses increased due to an increase in headcount to support our growth in our operations and from our recent acquisitions. In addition, facility and support services increased to support the build out of our facilities and our increased headcount. The decrease in other general and administrative expenses is primarily due to gains of $5.9 million and $57.6 million recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as a result of the change in fair value of our outstanding contingent consideration as further described in Note 7 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We expect significant leverage in general and administrative expenses going forward, but expenses will generally continue to increase in future periods due to an increase in headcount that will be necessary to support the growth in our existing and pipeline products.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets. Amortization of acquired intangible assets decreased to $23.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $23.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to reduced amortization on the intangible assets that were disposed of related to the sale of the GPS test, which was partially offset by amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of our acquisitions of PreventionGenetics in December 2021 and OmicEra in May 2022. Amortization of acquired intangible assets increased to $74.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $71.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in amortization of acquired intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was due to the amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of our acquisitions described above in addition to Ashion in April 2021.
Impairment of long-lived assets. Impairment of long-lived assets decreased to $5.9 million and $12.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, compared to $20.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The impairment charges recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2022 included impairments to the supply agreement intangible asset acquired as part of the combination with Genomic Health, and a building lease in Redwood City, California. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we also recorded an impairment on the acquired developed technology intangible asset acquired as part of the acquisition of Paradigm Diagnostics, Inc. (“Paradigm”). The impairment charge recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 related to the supply agreement intangible asset acquired as part of the combination with Genomic Health.

Other operating loss. Other operating loss increased to $13.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to zero for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The $13.2 million loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 represents the loss on the sale of our GPS test to MDxHealth, which is the difference between the carrying value of the asset sold as of the closing date and the consideration received from the sale. The sale of the GPS test is further discussed in Note 16 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Investment income (loss), net. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had net investment loss of $8.6 million, compared to net investment loss of $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had net investment loss of $13.8 million, compared to net investment income of $30.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The net investment loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to losses recorded on our equity securities. Net investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily due to the realized gain of $30.5 million that was recorded on our preferred stock investment in Thrive at closing in January 2021, which represented the adjustment to our historical investment to its fair value prior to our acquisition of Thrive. Our acquisition of Thrive is further described in Note 19 of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Interest expense. Interest expense increased to $5.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $4.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Interest expense recorded from our outstanding convertible notes totaled $4.0 million during each of the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Interest expense increased to $14.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $13.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Interest expense recorded from our outstanding convertible notes totaled $12.1 million during each of the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The convertible notes are further described in Note 9 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Income tax benefit. Income tax benefit decreased to $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Income tax benefit decreased to $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $242.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This decrease in income tax benefit is primarily due to an income tax benefit of $239.2 million recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as a result of the change in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance resulting from the acquisition of Thrive.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We have incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception, and have historically financed our operations primarily through public offerings of our common stock and convertible debt and through revenue generated by the sale of our laboratory testing services. We expect our operating expenditures to continue to increase to support future growth of our laboratory testing services, as well as an increase in research and development and clinical trial costs to support the advancement of our pipeline products and bringing new tests to market. We expect that cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand at September 30, 2022, along with cash flows generated through our operations, will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next twelve months based on current operating plans.
We have access to a revolving line-of-credit (the “Revolver”) of up to $150.0 million, which had its maturity date extended to November 2025 through an amended agreement in October 2022. The Revolver is collateralized by certain marketable securities which must continue to maintain a minimum market value of $150.0 million. During the fourth quarter of 2021, PNC Bank, National Association issued a letter of credit of $2.9 million, which reduced the amount available for cash advances under the line of credit to $147.1 million. As of September 30, 2022, we had not drawn any funds under the Revolver. In addition to the Revolver, we have access to $150.0 million under an accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Securitization Facility”), which expires in June 2024. The amount that we may borrow is determined based on the amount of qualifying accounts receivable at a given point in time. The Securitization Facility is collateralized by our accounts receivables. As of September 30, 2022, we had $50.0 million outstanding under the Securitization Facility, which is the minimum amount that we must borrow under the terms of the Securitization Facility. The Revolver and Securitization Facility are further described in Note 8 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We may raise additional capital to expand our business, to pursue strategic investments, to take advantage of financing opportunities or for other reasons. If we are unable to obtain sufficient additional funds to enable us to fund our business plans and strategic investments, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and we may be required to delay the implementation of our plans or otherwise scale back our operations. There can be no certainty that we will ever be successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations to achieve and maintain profitability and meet all of our obligations as they come due.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $235.3 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and approximately $433.8 million in marketable securities.
The majority of our investments in marketable securities consist of fixed income investments, and all are deemed available-for-sale. The objectives of this portfolio are to provide liquidity and safety of principal while striving to achieve the highest rate of return. Our investment policy limits investments to certain types of instruments issued by institutions with investment grade credit ratings and places restrictions on maturities and concentration by type and issuer.

Net cash provided by financing activities66.4 20.7 
Operating activities
The cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily to fund our net loss. The increase in our net loss was primarily due to an increase in expenses incurred to process our tests and an increase in operating expenses incurred to support the growth of our operations as further discussed above. The increase in cash used was also due to timing of payments on our accounts payable and accrued expenses, including payments made during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 under our promotion agreement with Pfizer and for certain personnel related liabilities that were accrued for as of December 31, 2021. This was partially offset by an increase in revenue, which was driven by an increase in completed Cologuard and Oncotype tests.
Investing activities
Cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was primarily due to a net cash inflow from purchases, sales, maturities of marketable securities of $275.0 million and $25.0 million from the sale of our GPS test in the third quarter, which was partially offset by purchases of property and equipment of $141.6 million and investments in privately held companies of $26.8 million. Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily due to a net cash outflow from purchases, sales, and maturities of marketable securities of $596.7 million, our acquisition of Thrive of $343.2 million, our acquisition of Ashion of $72.3 million, our asset acquisition of PFS Genomics of $33.1 million, our TARDIS license asset acquisition of $25.0 million, purchases of property and equipment of $76.4 million, and investments in privately held companies of $13.6 million.
Financing activities
The cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 consisted of proceeds of $50.0 million from our accounts receivable securitization facility, $15.5 million in connection with our employee stock purchase plan, and $6.0 million from the exercise of stock options, which was partially offset by cash outflows of $5.1 million for other financing activities. The cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 consisted of proceeds of $13.4 million from the exercise of stock options and $12.0 million in connection with our employee stock purchase plan, which was partially offset by $4.7 million for other financing activities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be appropriate under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates since our 2021 Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk is principally confined to our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and our outstanding variable-rate debt. We invest our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities in securities of the U.S. governments and its agencies and in investment-grade, highly liquid investments consisting of commercial paper, bank certificates of deposit, and corporate bonds, which as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were classified as available-for-sale. We place our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities with high-quality financial institutions, limit the amount of credit exposure to any one institution, and have established investment guidelines relative to diversification and maturities designed to maintain safety and liquidity.
Based on a hypothetical 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates, the potential losses in future earnings, fair value of risk-sensitive financial instruments, and cash flows are immaterial, although the actual effects may differ materially from the hypothetical analysis. While we believe our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities do not contain excessive risk, we cannot provide absolute assurance that, in the future, our investments will not be subject to adverse changes in market value. In addition, we maintain significant amounts of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities at one or more financial institutions that are in excess of federally insured limits. Given the potential instability of financial institutions, we cannot provide assurance that we will not experience losses on these deposits. We do not utilize interest rate hedging agreements or other interest rate derivative instruments.
As of September 30, 2022, we had $50.0 million in outstanding variable rate debt. Based on a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in market interest rates, annual interest expense on variable rate debt as of September 30, 2022 would increase by approximately $0.5 million. If we were to draw down additional amounts under either our Revolving Loan or Securitization Facility, the impact of increases in prevailing market interest rates would be even greater. All of our other significant interest-bearing liabilities bear interest at fixed rates and therefore are not subject to fluctuations in market interest rates; however, because these interest rates are fixed, we may be paying a higher interest rate, relative to market, in the future if circumstances change.

Foreign Currency Risk
The functional currency for most of our international subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar, and as a result we are not subject to material gains and losses from foreign currency translation of the subsidiary financial statements. Substantially all of our revenues are recognized in U.S. dollars, although a small portion is denominated in foreign currency as we continue to expand into markets outside of the U.S. Certain expenses related to our international activities are payable in foreign currencies. As a result, factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets will affect our financial results. With the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against certain foreign currencies this past year, the remeasurement of our international revenues has resulted in decreased revenues.
We enter into forward contracts to mitigate the impact of adverse movements in foreign exchange rates related to the re-measurement of monetary assets and liabilities and hedge our foreign currency exchange rate exposure. As of September 30, 2022, we had open foreign currency forward contracts with notional amounts of $29.7 million. Although the impact of currency fluctuations on our financial results has been immaterial in the past, there can be no guarantee that the impact of currency fluctuations related to our international activities will not be material in the future.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Disclosure controls and procedures enable us to record, process, summarize and report information required to be included in our Exchange Act filings within the required time period. Our disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the periodic reports filed with the SEC is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive, financial and accounting officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There have been no significant changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time we are a party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. Legal proceedings, including litigation, government investigations and enforcement actions could result in material costs, occupy significant management resources and entail civil and criminal penalties. The information called for by this item is incorporated by reference to the information in Note 14 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
We operate in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, some of which are beyond our control. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, the risks and uncertainties that we believe are most important for you to consider are discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the 2021 Form 10-K and in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On July 5, 2022, we issued 2,268 shares of restricted stock to Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research as part of the existing services and license agreement.
On September 26, 2022, we issued 6,448 shares of common stock to XMS Capital Partners in consideration for services performed related to the Oncotype DX Genomic Prostate Score test divestiture.
We believe that the offers and sales of the securities referenced above were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as transactions not involving any public offering. Use of this exemption is based on the following facts:
Neither we nor any person acting on behalf solicited any offer to buy or sell securities by any form of general solicitation or advertising.
At time of the divestiture, the recipients of the securities were accredited investors, as defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act.
The recipients of the securities have had access to information regarding the Company and are knowledgeable about us and our business affairs.
