NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(1)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Myriad Genetics, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly all financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The condensed consolidated financial statements herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. Operating results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 may not necessarily be indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company maintains a share-based compensation plan, the 2010 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2010 Plan”), that has been approved by the Company’s shareholders. The 2010 Plan allows the Company, under the direction of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to make grants of stock options, restricted and unrestricted stock awards and other stock-based awards to employees, consultants and directors. On December 5, 2012, the shareholders approved an amendment to the 2010 Plan to set the number of shares available for grant to 4,500,000. At December 31, 2012, all 4,500,000 shares were available for issuance. In addition, as of December 31, 2012, the Company may grant up to 8,896,094 additional shares under the 2010 Plan if options previously granted under the Company’s 2003 Employee, Director and Consultant Option Plan and 2002 Amended and Restated Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Option Plan are cancelled or expire in the future without the issuance of shares of common stock by the Company.

The number of shares, terms, and vesting period of awards under the 2010 Plan are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors for each equity award. Options under the plan generally vest ratably over four years and expire ten years from the grant date. On December 5, 2012, the shareholders approved an amendment to the 2010 Plan to change the term of all future awards to eight years. The exercise price of options granted is equivalent to the fair market value of the stock on the grant date.

The Company also had an Employee Stock Purchase Plan that was approved by shareholders in 1995 (the “1995 Purchase Plan”), and subsequently amended, under which 2,000,000 shares of common stock had been authorized. As of December 5, 2012, a total of 1,990,000 shares of common stock had been issued under the 1995 Purchase Plan when it was terminated. During the six months ended December 31, 2012, the Company

issued 83,000 shares of common stock under the 1995 Purchase Plan. At the December 5, 2012 annual shareholders meeting the 2012 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2012 Purchase Plan”) was approved by the shareholders under which 2,000,000 shares of common stock have been authorized. As of December 31, 2012, no shares of common stock have been issued under the 2012 Purchase Plan. Shares are issued under the 2012 Purchase Plan twice yearly at the end of each offering period.

A summary of the stock option activity under the Company’s plans for the six months ended December 31, 2012 is as follows:


	Number of shares		Weighted average exercise price
Options outstanding at June 30, 2012		15,233,281	$	19.32
Options granted		2,882,623		27.11

As of December 31, 2012, options to purchase 8,220,976 shares were vested and exercisable at a weighted average price of $19.67. As of December 31, 2012, there was $47,138,000 of total unrecognized share-based compensation cost related to share-based awards granted under the Company’s plans that will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.6 years.

Share-based compensation expense recognized and included in the condensed consolidated statements of income was allocated as follows:

Stockholders’ Equity

Stock Repurchase Program

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had a $200,000,000 share repurchase program which allowed repurchases to be made through open market or privately negotiated purchases, either from time to time or on an accelerated basis, in each case to be executed at management’s discretion based on market conditions. As of that date, approximately $19.8 million remained available for repurchases under this program. The Company uses the par value method of accounting for its stock repurchases. As a result of the stock repurchases, the Company reduced common stock and additional paid-in capital and recorded charges to accumulated deficit. The shares retired, aggregate common stock and additional paid-in capital reductions, and related charges to accumulated deficit for the repurchases for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:


(In thousands)	December 31,				December 31,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Shares purchased and retired		1,231		928		3,067		2,612

Common stock and additional paid-in-capital reductions	$	9,372	$	6,858	$	23,122	$	19,271

Charges to accumulated deficit	$	24,311	$	11,426	$	56,760	$	36,195

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock, including the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding.

The following is a reconciliation of the denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:


(In thousands)	Three months ended December 31,				Six months ended December 31,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Denominator:
Weighted-average shares outstanding used to compute basic earnings per share		81,692		84,498		81,632		84,870
Effect of dilutive stock options		2,548		1,733		2,459		1,732

Weighted-average shares outstanding and dilutive securities used to compute dilutive earnings per share		84,240		86,231		84,091		86,602

Certain outstanding stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. These potential dilutive common shares, which may be dilutive to future diluted earnings per share, are as follows:


	Three months ended December 31,				Six months ended, December 31,
(in thousands)	2012		2011		2012		2011
Anti-dilutive options excluded from EPS computation		5,605		9,703		4,585		8,770

Segment and Related Information

The Company’s business units have been aggregated into three reportable segments: (i) research, (ii) molecular diagnostics and (iii) companion diagnostics. The research segment is focused on the discovery of genes, biomarkers and proteins related to major common diseases and includes corporate services such as finance, human resources, legal, and information technology. The molecular diagnostics segment provides testing that is designed to assess an individual’s risk for developing disease later in life, identify a patient’s likelihood of responding to drug therapy and guide a patient’s dosing to ensure optimal treatment, or assess a patient’s risk of disease progression and disease recurrence. The companion diagnostics segment provides testing products and services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical research industries. The Company evaluates segment performance based on results from operations before interest income and expense and other income and expense.

Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments reflects the amounts that the Company estimates it will receive in connection with the sale of an asset or pay in connection with the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels:

Level 1—

quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2—

observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. This category generally includes U.S. Government and agency securities; municipal securities; mutual funds and securities sold and not yet settled. The Company’s marketable securities primarily utilize broker quotes in a non-active market for valuation of these securities.

Level 3—

unobservable inputs.

The substantial majority of the Company’s financial instruments are valued using quoted prices in active markets or based on other observable inputs. For Level 2 securities, the Company uses a third party pricing service which provides documentation on an ongoing basis that includes, among other things, pricing information with respect to reference data, methodology, inputs summarized by asset class, pricing application, corroborative information, etc. The Company reviews, tests and validates this information as appropriate. The following table sets forth the fair value of the financial assets that the Company re-measured on a regular basis:

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings covering matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. As of December 31, 2012, the management of the Company believes any liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, operating results, or cash flows.

(9)

Income Taxes

In order to determine the Company’s quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company used an estimated annual effective tax rate that is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter during which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

Income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $21,949,000, or approximately 39% of pre-tax income, compared to $18,487,000, for the three months ended December 31, 2011, or approximately 40% of pre-tax income. Income tax expense for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was $41,635,000, or approximately 39% of pre-tax income, compared to $35,193,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2011, or approximately 40% of pre-tax income. Income tax expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 is based on the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2013, adjusted by discrete items recognized during the period. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes as well as timing differences related to the recognition of the tax effect of equity compensation expense from incentive stock options and the deduction realized if those options are disqualified upon exercise and sale.

The Company files U.S., U.K., French and state income tax returns in jurisdictions with various statutes of limitations. The Company’s New York State income tax returns for the years ended June 30, 2007, 2008 and 2009 are currently under examination by the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance. Annual and interim tax provisions include amounts considered necessary to pay assessments that may result from examination of prior year tax returns; however, the amount ultimately paid upon resolution of issues may differ materially from the amount accrued. The Company’s U.S. federal tax return, U.K. and French income tax returns and all other state tax returns are not currently under examination.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill

At December 31, 2012, the Company had recorded goodwill of $56,850,000 related to the acquisition of Myriad RBM, Inc. on May 31, 2011 (formerly Rules-Based Medicine, Inc.). There were no events or circumstances that indicated that impairment exists, therefore, the Company recorded no impairment of goodwill for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2012.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets primarily consist of amortizable assets of purchased licenses and technologies, and customer relationships as well as non-amortizable intangible assets of in-process technologies, research and development and trademarks. Certain of these intangible assets were recorded as part of the Company’s purchase of Rules-Based Medicine, Inc. on May 31, 2011. In December 2012, the Company notified the licensor of the Company’s intent to terminate the license agreement for its OnDose product, and as a result, recorded an impairment charge of approximately $1,490,000 associated with the purchased license agreement. The fair value was estimated for the license agreement using the undiscounted future cash flows method, under which the Company determined that the fair value was less than the carrying value. The impairment is included in research and development in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and is part of the molecular diagnostic segment. The following summarizes the amounts reported as intangible assets:


(In thousands) December 31, 2012	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization			Impairment			Net

Term Loan and Option Agreement

On September 8, 2011, the Company issued a $25,000,000 term loan to Crescendo Bioscience, Inc. (“Crescendo”) of South San Francisco, CA under a Loan and Security Agreement (“Loan Agreement”) and also secured an exclusive three-year option to acquire the company pursuant to a definitive merger agreement (the “Option Agreement”). During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Loan Agreement was amended to increase the stated interest rate from 6% to 7% per year. The fair value of the Option Agreement of $8,000,000 was determined utilizing valuation models at the time of the issuance, including the market and income based approaches, which utilize various inputs including projected income, volatility, risk free rates and projected terms. The Company periodically evaluates the Option Agreement for impairment. No impairment indicators were noted at December 31, 2012.

The residual $17,000,000 value of the term loan has been classified as a note receivable at its accreted value of $20,333,000 on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012. The Company recorded interest income related to accretion of the note receivable and the stated interest rate for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 of $1,104,000 and $2,202,000, respectively, in the condensed consolidated income statement. The Company is utilizing the effective interest method to accrete the discount portion of the note receivable through interest income over the three-year term of the Company’s option to acquire Crescendo under the Option Agreement. The note receivable is evaluated for collectability each reporting period. If the Company determines that the note receivable and any accrued interest is not collectible, such amount will be written off in the period that determination is made. No amounts related to the note receivable or accrued interest were written off during the three or six months ended December 31, 2012.

(12)

Subsequent Event

In January 2013, the Company completed its fourth share repurchase authorization. In February 2013, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of $200 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Company plans to repurchase $200 million of shares of its common stock from time-to-time in open market purchases or privately negotiated purchases as determined by the Company’s management. The amount and timing of the stock repurchase will depend on business and market conditions, stock price, trading restrictions, acquisition activity and other factors.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

We are a leading molecular diagnostic company dedicated to making a difference in patient’s lives through the discovery and commercialization of transformative tests which assess a person’s risk of developing disease, guide treatment decisions and assess risk of disease progression and recurrence. We believe in improving healthcare for patients by providing physicians with critical information to solve unmet medical needs. By understanding the underlying genetic basis of disease, we believe that individuals who have a greater risk of developing disease can be identified and physicians may be able to use this information to improve patient outcomes and better manage patient healthcare. In addition, by understanding the RNA expression levels of certain genes, we believe that we can improve patient healthcare by providing information on the aggressiveness of their disease. Further, we believe that the analysis of the expression of groups of proteins may provide a physician with life-saving information to guide treatment decisions for their patients with cancer and other major diseases.

Our goal is to provide physicians with critical information that may guide the healthcare management of their patients to prevent disease, diagnose the disease at an earlier stage, determine the most appropriate therapy, or assess the aggressiveness of their disease. We employ a number of proprietary technologies, including DNA, RNA and protein analysis, that help us to understand the genetic basis of human disease and the role that genes and their related proteins may play in the onset and progression of disease. We use this information to guide the development of new molecular diagnostic tests that are designed to assess an individual’s risk for developing disease later in life (predictive medicine), identify a patient’s likelihood of responding to drug therapy and guide a patient’s dosing to ensure optimal treatment (personalized medicine), or assess a patient’s risk of disease progression and disease recurrence (prognostic medicine).

Our business strategy for future growth is focused on three key initiatives. First, we are working to grow and expand our existing products and markets. Second, we are developing our business internationally and have recently established operations in Europe. Finally, we intend to launch new transformative products across a diverse set of disease indications, complementing our current businesses in oncology, women’s health and urology.

Products and Services

We offer nine primary commercial molecular diagnostic tests, including six predictive medicine tests, two personalized medicine tests, and one prognostic medicine test. We market these tests through our own sales force of approximately 390 people in the United States. We have also established offices in France, Spain and Italy; laboratory operations and a sales and administrative office in Germany; and international headquarters in Switzerland. We market our BRACAnalysis^®, COLARIS^®, and COLARIS AP^® products through our own European sales force, and as of December 31, 2012, we have entered into distributor agreements with organizations in select Latin American, European, Asian and African countries.

Our primary commercial molecular diagnostic tests include:

•

BRACAnalysis^®, our predictive medicine test for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer;

•

COLARIS^®, our predictive medicine test for hereditary colorectal and uterine cancer;

•

COLARIS AP^®, our predictive medicine test for hereditary colorectal cancer;

•

MELARIS^®, our predictive medicine test for hereditary melanoma;

•

PANEXIA™, our predictive medicine test for pancreatic cancer;

•

PREZEON^®, our personalized medicine test to assess PTEN status for disease progression and drug response;

•

Prolaris^®, our prognostic medicine test for prostate cancer

•

Theraguide^® 5-FU, our personalized medicine test for chemotherapy toxicity to 5-FU; and

•

BRACAnalysis Large Rearrangement Technology, or BART, our predictive medicine test that provides a way to detect additional large genomic rearrangements in both the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. Based upon newly established clinical practice guidelines by NCCN, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, that recommends BART for all hereditary breast and ovarian cancer patients, we have received increased testing requests from physicians and affected patients.

In December 2012, we made the decision to discontinue the offering of the OnDose product. In September 2008, we acquired a license to technology that assisted in the development of OnDose, a personalized medicine product that measured a patient’s exposure to 5-fluorouracil chemotherapy. We determined that the investment required to further commercialize OnDose would be difficult to justify and that it would be more appropriate to employ our resources on the other product candidates in our pipeline.

Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Myriad RBM, Inc., we provide biomarker discovery and companion diagnostic services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical research industries utilizing our multiplexed immunoassay technology. Our technology enables us to efficiently screen large sets of clinical samples from both diseased and non-diseased populations against our extensive menu of biomarkers. By analyzing the data generated from these tests, we attempt to discover biomarker patterns that indicate a particular disease or disorder with a high degree of accuracy or may be used to identify patients who would likely respond to a particular therapy. During the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized companion diagnostic service revenue of $8.5 million and $5.2 million, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized companion diagnostic service revenue of $14.7 million and $11.7 million, respectively. In addition to the companion diagnostic research revenue fees received from analyzing these samples, we also use this information to create and validate new biomarkers that can aid us in the development of novel molecular diagnostic tests that could aid a physician in making diagnostic and treatment decisions.

Use of Resources

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, we devoted substantially all of our resources to supporting our molecular diagnostic and companion diagnostic businesses, as well as to the research and development of future molecular and companion diagnostic opportunities. We also pursued in-licensing opportunities where we acquire rights to new products and technologies from third parties. We have three reportable operating segments—research, molecular diagnostics and companion diagnostics. See Note 6 “Segment and Related Information” in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) for information regarding these operating segments.

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, we had net income of $35.0 million and $65.2 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.42 and $0.78, compared to $28.3 million and $53.4 million and $0.33 and $0.62 per share in the same periods in the prior year. Net income and earnings per share results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 included income tax expense of $21.9 million and $41.6 million compared to $18.5 million and $35.2 million for the same periods in the prior year. As of December 31, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $4.3 million.

Recent Developments

Between May 2010 and January 2013, we repurchased $500 million of our outstanding common stock. In February 2013, we announced that our board of directors authorized us to repurchase an additional $200 million of our outstanding common stock. In connection with this fifth stock repurchase authorization; we have been authorized to repurchase shares through open market transactions, in each case to be executed at management’s discretion based on market conditions. See also “Part II, Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds – Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.”

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those policies which are both important to the presentation of a company’s financial condition and results and require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. No significant changes to our accounting policies took place during the period. For a further discussion of our critical accounting policies, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

Revenue

Revenue is comprised of sales of our molecular diagnostic tests and our companion diagnostic services. Total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $149.1 million, compared to $122.8 million for the same three months in 2011. This 21% increase in revenue is primarily due to increased molecular diagnostic testing volume for our BRACAnalysis, Colaris and Colaris AP and other tests, a significant increase in BART testing, as well as a significant increase in companion diagnostic services due to increased research collaborations, as disclosed in the table below. We believe that our increased sales, marketing, and education efforts resulted in wider acceptance of our molecular diagnostic tests by the medical community and increased patient testing volumes. However, there can be no assurance that our revenue will continue to increase or remain at current levels.

Total revenue of our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services as well as revenue by product as a percent of total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:


	Three months ended December 31,				% Change			% of Total Revenue

Total molecular diagnostic testing revenues	$	140,651	$	117,610		20	%

Certain prior period reclassifications to oncology and women’s health revenue have been made to conform to current period presentation.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of revenue is comprised primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, laboratory supplies, royalty payments, equipment costs and facilities expense. Cost of molecular diagnostic testing revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $15.6 million, compared to $12.8 million for the same three months in 2011. This increase of 21% in molecular diagnostic testing cost of revenue is due to an increase in testing volumes. Our costs of companion diagnostic services include similar items. Cost of companion diagnostic services for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $4.3 million, compared to $3.3 million for the same three months in 2011. This 30% increase in companion diagnostic testing cost of revenue is primarily due to an increase in testing services. Many of the costs associated with the performance of our companion diagnostic services are fixed; consequently, gross margins will vary as we experience fluctuations in our companion diagnostic service revenue.

Our cost of revenue may also fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the introduction of new molecular diagnostic tests, testing volumes, changes in companion diagnostic services, price changes of existing tests and services, changes in our costs associated with such tests and services, the adoption of new technologies and operating systems in our molecular diagnostic laboratories and costs associated with operating additional laboratories outside the United States. There can be no assurance that gross profit margins will remain at current levels.

Our research and development expenses include costs incurred in maintaining and improving our current molecular diagnostic tests and costs incurred for the discovery, validation and development of our pipeline of molecular and companion diagnostic test candidates. Research and development expenses are comprised primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, laboratory supplies, clinical trial costs, equipment, and facilities costs. Research and development expenses incurred during the three months ended December 31, 2012 were $14.1 million compared to $10.2 million for same three months in 2011. This increase of 38% was primarily due to the following:

•

an increase of approximately $1.5 million due to the impairment of an intangible asset related to the OnDose product;

•

an increase of approximately $1.4 million in internal development activities and clinical studies to support our existing molecular diagnostic testing products;

•

an increase of approximately $0.6 million due to the internal development of future molecular diagnostic product candidates; and

•

an increase of approximately $0.4 million in internal development activities to support our companion diagnostic services business.

We expect that our research and development expenses will increase over the next several years as we continue to develop our pipeline and expand our offerings of molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services.

Our sales, general and administrative expenses include costs associated with building our molecular diagnostic and companion diagnostic businesses domestically and internationally. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions and related personnel costs for sales, marketing, customer service, billing and collection, executive, legal, finance and accounting, information technology, human resources, and allocated facilities expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2012 were $59.6 million, compared to $51.0 million for the same three months in 2011. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense of 17% was due primarily to support the 21% increase in revenue and include:

•

an increase in sales and marketing expense of approximately $4.7 million due to various marketing initiatives, added headcount and increased sales commissions;

•

an increase of approximately $1.5 million in international administrative costs from our European operations;

•

an increase of approximately $1.1 million in bad debt expense;

•

an increase of approximately $0.9 million in other general administrative expenses;

•

an increase in share-based compensation expense of approximately $0.3 million; and

•

an increase of $0.1 million of Myriad RBM administrative costs.

We expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter and that such increases may be substantial, depending on the number and scope of any new molecular diagnostic and companion diagnostic launches, our efforts in support of our existing molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services as well as our continued international expansion efforts.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest income was $1.4 million for both the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Interest income consists primarily of interest income recorded from the note receivable from Crescendo Bioscience, Inc., or Crescendo.

Income Tax Provision

Income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $21.9 million, for an effective income tax rate of approximately 39%, compared to income tax expense of $18.5 million or a 40% effective income tax rate in the same period in 2011. Income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2012 is based on our estimated annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2013 adjusted by discrete items recognized during the period. Our annual effective tax rate is a product of the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%, a blended state income tax rate of 3% and a 1% impact from recognition of permanent differences. The effective rate is primarily impacted by timing differences related to the recognition of permanent differences due to the tax effect of equity compensation expense from incentive stock options and the deduction realized if those options are disqualified upon exercise. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized during the period in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

Revenue

Total revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was $282.6 million, compared to $233.3 million for the same six months in 2011. This 21% increase is primarily due to increased molecular diagnostic testing volume for our BRACAnalysis, Colaris and Colaris AP, BART and other tests, as well as an increase in companion diagnostic testing revenues as a result of increased research collaborations, as disclosed in the table below.

Total revenue of our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:

Costs and Expenses

Cost of molecular diagnostic testing revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was $29.5 million, compared to $24.1 million for the same six months in 2011. This increase of 22% in molecular diagnostic testing cost of revenue is primarily due to an increase in testing volumes. Cost of companion diagnostic services was $7.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $6.4 for the same six months in 2011. This 21% increase in companion diagnostic services cost of revenue is primarily due to an increase in testing services.

Research and development expenses are comprised primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, laboratory supplies, clinical trial costs, equipment, and facilities costs. Research and development expenses incurred during the six months ended December 31, 2012 were $25.5 million compared to $18.7 million for same six months in 2011. This increase of 36% was primarily due to the following:

•

an increase of approximately $1.7 million due to the internal development of future molecular diagnostic product candidates;

•

an increase of approximately $1.7 million in internal development activities and clinical studies to support our existing molecular diagnostic testing products;

•

an increase of approximately $1.5 million related to the impairment of an intangible asset for the license agreement related to the OnDose product;

•

an increase of approximately $1.1 million in internal development activities to support our companion diagnostic services business: and

•

an increase of approximately $0.8 million for the acquisition of new products and licenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions and related personnel costs for sales, marketing, customer service, billing and collection, executive, legal, finance and accounting, information technology, human resources, and allocated facilities expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2012 were $115.7 million, compared to $97.1 million for the same six months in 2011. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense of 19% was due primarily to support the 21% increase in revenue and include:

•

an increase in sales and marketing expense of approximately $12.7 million due to various marketing initiatives, added headcount and increased sales commissions;

•

an increase of approximately $4.0 million in bad debt expense;

•

an increase of approximately $2.1 million in international administrative costs from our European operations;

•

an increase in share-based compensation expense of approximately $0.5 million;

•

a decrease of $0.5 million in other general administrative cost; and

•

a decrease of $0.2 million of Myriad RBM administrative costs.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest income for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was $2.8 million, compared to $1.9 million for the same six months in 2011, an increase of 48%. The increase was due primarily to interest income recorded from the note receivable from Crescendo.

Income Tax Provision

Income tax expense for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was $41.6 million, for an effective income tax rate of approximately 39%, compared to income tax expense of $35.2 million or a 40% effective income tax rate in the same period in 2011. Income tax expense for the six months ended December 31, 2012 is based on our estimated annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2013 adjusted by discrete items recognized during the period. Our annual effective tax rate is a product of the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%, a blended state income tax rate of 3% and a 1% impact from recognition of permanent differences. The effective rate is primarily impacted by timing differences related to the recognition of permanent differences due to the tax effect of equity compensation expense from incentive stock options and the deduction realized if those options are disqualified upon exercise. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized during the period in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from period to period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable investment securities increased $14.0 million, or 3%, to $468.2 million at December 31, 2012 from $454.2 million at June 30, 2012. This increase was attributable to increased collections from higher sales, partially offset by operating expenses and purchasing $79.9 million of our common stock under our share repurchase program.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $73.5 million during the six months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $59.4 million during the same six months in 2011. Our net income was reduced by non-cash charges in the form of share-based compensation, intangible asset impairment and depreciation and amortization, which totaled $13.7 million and $4.5 million, respectively, during the six months ended December 31, 2012. In addition, operating cash was reduced by an increase of $29.9 million in trade accounts receivable due to an increase in sales as well as an increase in day’s sales outstanding due to certain contract negotiations.

Our investing activities used cash of $39.0 million during the six months ended December 31, 2012 and provided cash of $13.1 million during the same six months in 2011. Investing activities were comprised primarily of purchases and sales and maturities of marketable investment securities. Capital expenditures for equipment and facilities for the six months ended December 31, 2012 were $7.0 million.

Financing activities used cash of $52.4 million during the six months ended December 31, 2012 and used cash of $16.3 million in the same six months in 2011. Cash utilized in financing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2012 was primarily due to the purchase of $79.9 million of our common stock through our share repurchase programs, partially offset by $23.9 million from cash provided primarily by the exercise of stock options.

We believe that our existing capital resources and net cash expected to be generated from sales of our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services will be adequate to fund our current and planned operations for the foreseeable future, although no assurance can be given that changes will not occur that would consume available capital resources more quickly than we currently expect and that we may need or want to raise additional funds. Our future capital requirements, cash flows, and results of operations could be affected by and will depend on many factors that are currently unknown to us, including:

•

failure to sustain revenue growth or margins in our molecular diagnostic testing and companion diagnostic services businesses;

•

termination of the licenses underlying our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services or failure to enter into product or technology licensing or other arrangements favorable to us;

•

delays or other problems with operating our laboratory facilities;

•

the costs and expenses incurred in supporting our existing molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services;

•

the progress, results and cost of developing and launching additional molecular diagnostic tests and offering additional companion diagnostic services;

•

potential business development activities, in-licensing agreements and acquisitions, such as our acquisition of Myriad RBM and our strategic debt investment and option to acquire Crescendo Biosciences, Inc., and our ability to successfully integrate and achieve the expected benefits of our business development activities, in-licensing agreements and acquisitions;

•

changes in the government regulatory approval process for our tests;

•

the progress, costs and results of our international expansion efforts;

•

the costs, timing, outcome, and enforcement of any regulatory review of our existing or future molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services;

•

the costs of preparing, filing and prosecuting patent applications, maintaining and enforcing our issued patents and defending intellectual property-related claims;

•

the costs, timing and outcome of any litigation against us;

•

the introduction of technological innovations or new commercial tests by our competitors;

•

changes in intellectual property laws covering our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services and patents or enforcement in the United States and foreign countries;

•

changes in the governmental or private insurers reimbursement levels for our tests; and

•

changes in structure of the healthcare system or healthcare payment systems.

Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations

The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company’s future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains such “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Words such as “may,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expects,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes” and words and terms of similar substance used in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance, identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are management’s present expectations of future events and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those described in the forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to: the risk that sales and profit margins of our existing molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services may decline or will not continue to increase at historical rates; risks related to changes in the governmental or private insurers reimbursement levels for our tests; the risk that we may be unable to develop or achieve commercial success for additional molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services in a timely manner, or at all; the risk that we may not successfully develop new markets for our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services, including our ability to successfully generate revenue outside the United States; the risk that licenses to the technology underlying our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services tests and any future tests are terminated or cannot be maintained on satisfactory terms; risks related to delays or other problems with operating our laboratory testing facilities; risks related to public concern over our genetic testing in general or our tests in particular; risks related to regulatory requirements or enforcement in the United States and foreign countries and changes in the structure of the healthcare system or healthcare payment systems; risks related to our ability to obtain new corporate collaborations or licenses and acquire new technologies or businesses on satisfactory terms, if at all; risks related to our ability to successfully integrate and derive benefits from any technologies or businesses that we license or acquire; the development of competing tests and services; the risk that we or our licensors may be unable to protect the proprietary technologies underlying our tests; the risk of patent-infringement claims or challenges to the validity of our patents; risks of new, changing and competitive technologies and regulations in the United States and internationally; and other factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as any updates to those risk factors filed from time to time in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K.

In light of these assumptions, risks and uncertainties, the results and events discussed in the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report or in any document incorporated by reference might not occur. Stockholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report.

Controls and Procedures

(a)

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

(b)

Changes in Internal Controls. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control that occurred during our last fiscal quarter 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

We are a defendant in a lawsuit brought by the Association for Molecular Pathology, et al., the Plaintiffs, originally filed on May 12, 2009 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “District Court”) seeking a declaratory ruling that 15 claims of seven patents relating to the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are invalid and unenforceable under 35 U.S.C. Section 101. The District Court ruled that all 15 claims were invalid; however, on appeal, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “Federal Circuit”) ruled that the nine composition of matter claims relating to isolated DNA molecules and one method claim relating to screening potential cancer therapeutics via changes in cell growth rates are patent eligible. The Federal Circuit upheld the decision of the District Court that the five method claims relating to comparing or analyzing DNA sequences are patent ineligible. The Plaintiffs appealed the decision of the Federal Circuit to the United States Supreme Court (the “Supreme Court”) as it related to the composition of matter claims. The Supreme Court vacated the Federal Circuit’s decision and remanded the case for a redetermination as to the composition of matter claims. Following remand from the Supreme Court, on August 16, 2012, the Federal Circuit again ruled that the nine composition of matter claims relating to isolated DNA molecules and one method claim relating to screening potential cancer therapeutics via changes in cell growth rates are patent eligible under 35 U.S.C. Section 101. The Plaintiffs again sought review by the Supreme Court of the Federal Circuit’s decision on remand. On November 30, 2012, the Supreme Court granted certiorari, agreeing to hear the case; however, the Supreme Court is limiting its review to the composition of matter claims relating to isolated DNA molecules. A decision by the Supreme Court is expected by June 30, 2013.

Apart from the 15 claims being challenged in this lawsuit, there are over 500 separate claims under 24 patents, and various propriety technologies and information, which cover the intellectual property utilized in, or relating to, our BRCAnalysis predictive medicine test for breast and ovarian cancer which are not subject to this lawsuit. Accordingly, we do not believe that this lawsuit will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position or results of operations.

We are not a party to any other legal proceedings that we believe will have a material impact on our business, financial position or results of operations.
