CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in or incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events.

These statements include, but are not limited to the following:

•the ability to comply with the listing requirements of the Nasdaq;

•the risk of disruption, including in the Company’s information technology systems, to the Company’s current plans and operations;

•changes in applicable laws or regulations;

•the ability of the Company to raise financing in the future;

•the success, cost and timing of the Company’s product development, sales and marketing, and research and development activities;

•the Company’s ability to maintain existing license agreements and manufacturing arrangements;

•the Company’s ability to attract or retain sales and distribution partners;

•the Company’s ability to compete with other companies currently marketing or engaged in the development of products and services that serve customers engaged in proteomic analysis, many of which have greater financial and marketing resources than the Company;

•the size and growth potential of the markets for the Company’s products, and the ability of each to serve those markets, either alone or in partnership with others;

These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described under sections entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Note 1 — Description of Business

Organization and Operations

SomaLogic, Inc. (“SomaLogic” or the “Company”) operates as a protein biomarker discovery company that develops slow off-rate modified aptamers (“SOMAmers®”), which are modified nucleic acid-based protein binding reagents that are specific for their cognate protein, and offer proprietary SomaScan® services, which provide multiplex protein detection and quantification of protein levels in complex biological samples. The SOMAmers®/SomaScan® technology enables researchers to analyze various types of biological samples for protein biomarker signatures, which can be utilized in drug discovery and development. Biomarker discoveries from SomaScan® can lead to diagnostic applications in various areas of diseases including cardiovascular and metabolic disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, and wellness, among others.

SomaLogic, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware on December 15, 2020 as a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) under the name CM Life Sciences II Inc. (“CMLS II”) for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

On September 1, 2021, we consummated a business combination (the “SPAC Merger”) wherein SomaLogic Operating Co. Inc. (“SomaLogic Operating”), a Delaware corporation formed on October 13, 1999, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CMLS II. In connection with the closing of the SPAC Merger, we changed our name from CM Life Sciences II Inc. to SomaLogic, Inc.

Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “SomaLogic" and “the Company" refer to SomaLogic, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The SPAC Merger and presentation of historical amounts and balances after the SPAC Merger are more fully described in Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements - Business Combinations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”). Our Common Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock are listed on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “SLGC” and “SLGCW”, respectively.

Other than information discussed herein, there have been no significant changes to our description of business disclosed in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regarding financial reporting. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the 2022 Form 10-K.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of interim financial information, to present fairly our condensed consolidated financial position and our results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any other future annual or interim period.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current presentation.

Revisions of prior period consolidated financial statements

Capitalized software development costs related to hosting arrangements that are service contracts should be classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. We made immaterial revisions to amounts previously reported on our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 in order to reclassify capitalized cloud computing arrangement expenditures from investing activities to operating activities. The table below reflects the revisions:

The prior misclassification of these capitalized cloud computing arrangement expenditures was not material to the previously issued condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosed in the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Significant estimates and assumptions which form the basis of amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the standalone selling prices of our performance obligations; timing of revenue recognition; fair value measurements; net realizable value of inventory; income taxes; and the fair value of intangible assets acquired in business combinations. We base our estimates on current facts and circumstances, historical experience, forecasted results, and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. We obtain reports from third-party valuation experts to inform and support estimates related to certain fair value measurements.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties

Financial instruments that potentially expose us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, investments, and accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are unsecured. Cash and cash equivalents are deposited with major financial institutions. In certain accounts, we maintain cash balances in excess of federally insured limits. We have not experienced losses in these accounts and believe that we are not exposed to significant risk.

Significant customers are those that represent more than 10% of total revenues for any period presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, or that represent more than 10% of the gross accounts receivable balance as of either balance sheet date presented. The table below sets forth percentages of revenue and gross accounts receivable attributable to significant customers:

			Accounts Receivable												Revenue
			September 30, 2023						December 31, 2022						Three months ended September 30,												Nine months ended September 30,
															2023						2022						2023						2022
Customer A			11%						11%						15%						13%						29%						19%
Customer B(1)			44%						51%						*						53%						*						33%
Customer C			17%						*						24%						*						13%						*

(1)    All revenue related to accounts receivable from Customer B was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2022.

*    less than 10%

International sales entail a variety of risks, including currency exchange fluctuations, longer payment cycles, and greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection. Customers outside the United States collectively represent 55% and 28% of our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and represent 58% and 33% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Customers outside of the

United States collectively represented 33% and 23% of our gross accounts receivable balance as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Certain components included in our products require customization and are obtained from a single source or a limited number of suppliers.

Business Combinations

We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Application of this method of accounting requires that (i) identifiable assets acquired (including identifiable intangible assets) and liabilities assumed generally be measured and recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date and (ii) the excess of the purchase price over the net fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized as goodwill. Transaction costs related to business combinations are expensed as incurred and classified as selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination requires management to use significant judgment and estimates, especially with respect to intangible assets.

During the measurement period, which extends one year from the acquisition date, we may record certain adjustments to the carrying value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.

Contingent Consideration

Acquisition-related contingent consideration was initially recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at its acquisition-date estimated fair value, in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting. Contingent consideration liabilities contractually due beyond 12 months are recorded in other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration is remeasured each reporting period, with changes in fair value recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable by market participants and thus represents a Level 3 input in the fair value hierarchy.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Expected Credit Losses

Effective January 1, 2023, we adopted the requirements of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), along with the subsequently issued guidance amending and clarifying various aspects of ASU 2016-13, using the modified retrospective method of adoption. In accordance with that method, the comparative periods’ information continues to be reported under the relevant accounting guidance in effect for that period. For the current period, the standard replaces the existing incurred credit loss model with the current expected credit losses model for financial instruments, including accounts receivable, through a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective.

Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts, net of an allowance for expected credit losses. We are exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products and services. The estimation of the allowance for expected credit losses is based on historical loss experience, the current aging status of receivables, current and estimated future economic and market conditions, and specific customer accounts considered to be at risk or uncollectible. We write off accounts receivable against the allowance for expected credit losses when we determine a balance is uncollectible and cease collection efforts. We did not write off any material accounts receivable balances during the periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

The non-current portion of accounts receivable primarily consists of guaranteed minimum fixed royalty payments owed to us under licensing agreements. Non-current accounts receivable are recorded net of significant financing components.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. Cost is determined using a standard cost system, whereby the standard costs are updated periodically to reflect current costs. We estimate the recoverability of inventory by referencing estimates of future demands and product life cycles, including expiration. We periodically analyze our inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire prior to expected usage, no longer meets quality specifications, or has a cost basis in excess of its estimated net realizable value, and record a charge to cost of revenue for such inventory as appropriate. Inventory that is not expected to be used within 12 months of the balance sheet date is classified as non-current inventory in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets primarily consists of acquired in-process research and development (“IPR&D”). IPR&D relates to substantial research and development efforts that are incomplete at the acquisition date. IPR&D intangible assets are considered indefinite-lived until the completion or abandonment of the associated research and development efforts. During the development phase, these assets are not amortized but are tested for impairment annually during the fourth quarter of the year or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Once the IPR&D activities are completed, the intangible asset is amortized over its useful life on a straight-line basis.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price from business combinations over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it may be impaired. All of our goodwill is assigned to our one reporting unit.

We perform impairment testing by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If we conclude that that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then a quantitative test is required.

If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not considered to be impaired. If the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value, there is an impairment of goodwill and an impairment loss would be recorded. The impairment loss is calculating by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit less the carrying amount, including goodwill. Goodwill impairment would be limited to the carrying value of goodwill. There were no goodwill impairment losses recorded in any period presented.

Software Development Costs

Internal-Use Software

The Company capitalizes certain internal and external costs related to the acquisition and development of internal-use software or cloud computing arrangements during the application development stages of projects. The costs incurred for development of software intended for internal use and cloud computing arrangements are capitalized in accordance with ASC 350-40, Goodwill and Other, Internal-Use Software. These costs are included in property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

When the software is ready for its intended use, the Company amortizes these costs using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, or, for cloud computing service arrangements, over the term of the hosting arrangement. Costs incurred during the preliminary project or the post-implementation/operation stages of the project are expensed as incurred.

Software Developed for Sale

The costs incurred for the development of computer software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed are capitalized in accordance with ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed, when technological feasibility has been established. Technological feasibility generally occurs when all planning, design, coding and testing activities are completed that are necessary to establish that the product can be produced to meet its design specifications, including functions, features and technical performance requirements. The establishment of technological feasibility is an ongoing assessment of judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, anticipated future revenues, estimated economic life and changes in technology. Capitalized software costs include direct labor and related expenses for software development for new products. Capitalized software costs are included in other long-term assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Costs to develop software to be sold are not yet subject to amortization as our software to be sold was not available for general release as of September 30, 2023.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate a long-lived asset (or asset group) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. If indicators of impairment exist and the undiscounted future cash flows that the asset is expected to generate are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded to write down the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow approach. There were no impairment losses recorded in any period presented.

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are included in other long-term assets, and operating lease liabilities are included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As the implicit rate in our leases is generally unknown, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. We give consideration to our credit risk, term of the lease, total lease payments and adjust for the impacts of collateral, as necessary, when calculating our incremental borrowing rates.

Operating lease ROU assets include lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. When the lease incentives specify a maximum level of reimbursement and we are reasonably certain to incur reimbursable costs equal to or exceeding this level, we include the lease incentive in the measurement of the ROU assets and lease liabilities at commencement. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain we will exercise any such options. Lease costs for our operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis within operating expenses over the lease term in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. However, we have elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of our existing classes of assets. Therefore, the lease and non-lease components are accounted for as a single lease component. We have also elected to not apply the recognition requirement to any short-term leases with a term of 12 months or less.

We monitor for events or changes in circumstances that may require a reassessment or impairment of our leases, at which time our ROU assets for operating leases may be reduced by impairment losses.

Warrant Liabilities

During February 2021, in connection with CMLS II’s initial public offering, CMLS II issued 5,519,991 warrants (the “Public Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock at $11.50 per share. Simultaneously, with the consummation of the CMLS II initial public offering, CMLS II issued 5,013,333 warrants through a private placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”, and together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock at $11.50 per share. All of the Warrants were outstanding as of September 30, 2023.

We classify the Warrants as liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as these instruments are precluded from being indexed to our own stock given that the terms allow for a settlement adjustment that does not meet the scope for the fixed-for-fixed exception in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Since the Warrants meet the definition of a derivative under ASC 815-40, we recorded these warrants as long-term liabilities at fair value on the date of the SPAC Merger, with subsequent changes in their respective fair values recognized within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss at each reporting date. See Note 11, Stockholders' Equity, for more information on the Warrants.

Earn-Out Liability

As a result of the SPAC Merger, additional shares of Common Stock were provided to SomaLogic Operating shareholders and to certain employees and directors of SomaLogic (“Earn-Out Service Providers”) of up to 3,500,125 and 1,499,875, respectively (the “Earn-Out Shares”). The Earn-Out Shares would have been payable if the price of our Common Stock had equaled or exceeded $20.00 for a period of at least 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days at any time between the 13- and 24-month anniversary of the closing date of the SPAC Merger (the “Triggering Event”).

The Earn-Out Shares granted to shareholders are recognized as a liability in accordance with ASC 815. The liability was included as part of the consideration transferred in the SPAC Merger and was recorded at fair value and is included in other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The earn-out liability is remeasured at the end of each reporting period, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized within change in fair value of earn-out liability in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of September 30, 2023, the Earn-Out Shares have been forfeited as the 24-month anniversary of the closing date of the SPAC Merger has passed.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from sales to customers under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). ASC 606 provides a five-step model for recognizing revenue that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Unaudited

We recognize revenue when or as control of promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Sales, value add, and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

Payment terms may vary by customer, are based on customary commercial terms, and are generally less than one year. We do not adjust revenue for the effects of a significant financing component for contracts where the period between the transfer of the good or service and collection is one year or less. We expense incremental costs to obtain a contract when incurred since the amortization period of the asset that would otherwise be recognized is one year or less.

Assay Services Revenue

We generate assay services revenue primarily from the sale of SomaScan® services. SomaScan® service revenue is derived from performing the SomaScan® assay on customer samples to generate data on protein biomarkers. Revenue from SomaScan® services is recognized at the time the analysis data or report is delivered to the customer, which is when control has been transferred to the customer. SomaScan® services are sold at a fixed price per sample without any volume discounts, rebates, or refunds.

The delivery of each assay data report is a separate performance obligation. For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the transaction price must be allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Judgment is required to determine the standalone selling price for each distinct performance obligation as there are few directly comparable products in the market and factors such as customer size are factored into the determination of selling price. We determine standalone selling prices based on amounts invoiced to customers in observable transactions.

Product Revenue

Product revenue primarily consists of equipment and kit sales to customers that assay samples in their own laboratories, referred to as authorized sites. Equipment is generally accounted for as a bundle with installation, qualification and training services. Revenue is recognized based on the progress made toward achieving the performance obligation utilizing input methods, including costs incurred. Revenue from kit sales is recognized upon transfer of control to the customer. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in product revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Collaboration Revenue

In July 2011, NEC Corporation (“NEC”) and SomaLogic entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “SAA”) to develop a professional software tool to enable SomaScan® customers to easily access and interpret the highly multiplexed proteomic data generated by SomaLogic’s SomaScan® assay technology in the United States. To support this development, NEC made an upfront payment of $12.0 million. This agreement includes a clause whereby if there is a material breach of the contract or change in control of SomaLogic, we may be required to pay a fee to terminate the agreement.

We determined that the SAA met the criteria set forth in ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements, (“ASC 808”) because both parties were active participants and were exposed to significant risks and rewards dependent on commercial failure or success. We recorded the upfront payment as deferred revenue to be recognized over the period of performance of 15 years. The revenue was recorded in collaboration revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

In March 2020, NEC and SomaLogic mutually terminated the SAA and concurrently SomaLogic and NEC Solution Innovators, Ltd. (“NES”), a wholly owned subsidiary of NEC, entered into a new arrangement, the Joint Development & Commercialization Agreement (the “JDCA”), to develop and commercialize SomaScan® services in Japan. NES agreed to make annual payments of $2.0 million for five years, for a total of $10.0 million, in exchange for research and development activities, as described below. We determined the JDCA should be accounted for as a modification of the SAA. Therefore, the remaining SAA deferred revenue balance as of the date of the modification was included as consideration under the JDCA resulting in total consideration of $15.3 million for research and development activities. We determined that this arrangement also meets the criteria set forth in ASC 808. The JDCA contains three separate performance obligations: (i) research and development activities, (ii) assay services, and (iii) a 10-year exclusive license of our intellectual property.

(i) Research and Development Activities

We determined that NES is not a customer with respect to the research and development activities associated with the collaboration arrangement under ASC 808. We recognize revenue from these activities based on the progress made toward achieving the performance obligation utilizing input methods, including costs incurred, in collaboration revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

(ii) Assay Services

We determined that NES is a customer for the assay services performance obligation, which should be accounted for using the criteria under ASC 606. We receive a fixed fee (standalone selling price) per sample in exchange for assaying samples, which is a service performed for other customers in the ordinary course of business. This performance obligation is recognized at a point in time when the assay data report is delivered to the customer and recorded in assay services revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

(iii) License of Intellectual Property

We determined that NES is a customer for the license performance obligation, which should be accounted for using the criteria under ASC 606. We receive royalties based on NES’ net sales and determined the allocation of royalties solely to this performance obligation is consistent with the objectives in ASC 606. This performance obligation was satisfied at the beginning of the license term. Subject to the sales and usage-based royalty exception, revenue is recognized in the period in which the subsequent sale or usage has occurred. Royalties are recorded in other revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Other Revenue

Other revenue includes royalty revenue and revenue received from research grants. We recognize royalty revenue for fees paid by customers in return for a license to make, use or sell certain licensed products in certain geographic areas. These fees are equivalent to a percentage of the customer’s related revenues. We recognize revenue for sales-based or usage-based royalties promised in exchange for a functional license of intellectual property when the later of the following events occurs: (i) the subsequent sale or usage occurs, or (ii) the performance obligation to which some or all of the sales-based or usage-based royalty has been satisfied. As such, revenue is recognized in the period in which the subsequent sale or usage has occurred.

In June 2008, SomaLogic and New England Biolabs, Inc. (“NEB”) entered into an exclusive licensing agreement, whereby we provide a license to use certain proprietary information and know-how relating to its aptamer technology to make and use commercial products. In exchange, we receive royalties from NEB for this functional license of intellectual property. In September 2022, SomaLogic and NEB entered into a license and settlement agreement (“NEB Agreement”) that terminated the existing exclusive licensing arrangement and provided for a settlement of $8.0 million of previously constrained royalties recognized for the year ended December 31, 2022. The NEB Agreement also provided a non-exclusive license arrangement for the same proprietary information and know-how under which we are guaranteed fixed minimum royalties of $15.0 million to be received over 3 years. We recognized revenue for the guaranteed fixed minimum royalties of $13.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, net of a significant financing component of $1.8 million. Any revenue above the guaranteed fixed minimum royalties is recognized in the period in which the subsequent sale or usage has occurred. We have recorded a receivable of $12.9 million as of September 30, 2023, of which $8.6 million is recorded in accounts receivable, net of current portion and $4.3 million is recorded in accounts receivable, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Interest income related to the significant financing component was $0.2 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and is included in interest income and other, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Grant revenue represents funding under cost reimbursement programs or fixed rate arrangements from government agencies and non-profit foundations for qualified research and development activities performed by SomaLogic. We recognize grant revenue when it is reasonably assured that the grant funding will be received as evidenced through the existence of a grant arrangement, amounts eligible for reimbursement are determinable and have been incurred, the applicable conditions under the grant arrangements have been met, and collectability of amounts due is reasonably assured. The classification of costs incurred related to grants is based on the nature of the activities performed by SomaLogic. Grant revenue is recognized when the related costs are incurred and recorded in other revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Illumina Cambridge, Ltd.

On December 31, 2021, we entered into a multi-year arrangement with Illumina Cambridge, Ltd. (“Illumina Agreement”) to jointly develop and commercialize co-branded kits that will combine Illumina’s Next Generation Sequencing (“NGS”) technology with SomaLogic’s SomaScan technology. Pursuant to the agreement, we received a non-refundable upfront payment of $30.0 million on January 4, 2022. This arrangement is accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. We concluded there are two performance obligations: (1) SOMAmer reagents necessary to develop and commercialize NGS based proteomic products, inclusive of the rights to licenses, patents and training to allow for the use of such reagents and (2) an option to purchase goods post-commercialization with a material right (“Material Right”). The total transaction price is subject to a constraint since it is uncertain that commercialization will be achieved; and therefore the transaction price was determined to be $30.0 million and was allocated to each of the performance obligations identified on a relative standalone selling price basis. Revenue from the performance obligations is recognized as follows in product revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss:

Unaudited

Reagents: Revenue is recognized when control transfers to the customer (i.e., when the SOMAmer reagents are shipped). We estimated the standalone selling price (“SSP”) based on observable pricing of similar performance obligations.

Material Right: Revenue is recognized when Illumina exercises its option to purchase goods post-commercialization. We estimated the SSP based on an incremental discount to be provided to the customer adjusted for the likelihood that Illumina will exercise the option.

In June 2022, Illumina issued a purchase order that changed the promises under the Illumina Agreement. The purchase order represents a contract modification that is accounted for prospectively as if it were a termination of the existing contract and the creation of a new contract.

As a result, we determined that there were three new performance obligations (total of five performance obligations): (1) equipment bundle that includes customization services, integration services, system qualification services, site initiation services and training (“Equipment Bundle”), (2) qualification kits, and (3) support services. The contract modification resulted in an increase in the transaction price of $0.5 million. The updated transaction price was allocated between the performance obligations on a relative SSP basis. We estimated the SSP based on observable pricing of similar performance obligations. Revenue from the performance obligations is recognized as follows in product revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss:

Equipment Bundle: Revenue is recognized based on the progress made toward achieving the performance obligation utilizing input methods, including costs incurred.

Qualification Kits: Revenue is recognized when control transfers to the customer (i.e., when the qualification kits are shipped).

Support Services: Revenue is recognized for the support services as the services are provided.

We did not recognize any revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 or 2022 pursuant to the Illumina Agreement for performance obligations satisfied.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents cash on deposit with a financial institution as security for letters of credit outstanding for the benefit of the landlords related to operating leases and a bank guarantee with an international customer. The portion of restricted cash expected to be released within twelve months is classified as prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets was $0.5 million and $4.7 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Cash expected to be restricted for greater than twelve months is classified as other long-term assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets was $0.6 million and $0.8 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Income Taxes

We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts, based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which these temporary differences are expected to reverse. We evaluate the need to establish or release a valuation allowance based upon expected levels of taxable income, future reversals of existing temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and recent financial operations. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be more likely than not realized in the future.

The effect of income tax positions is recognized only when it is more likely than not to be sustained. Interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions are recorded in income tax benefit (provision) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Segment Information

We have one operating segment. Our chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) role is performed by our Chief Executive Officer. The CODM manages our operations on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. Substantially all of our operations and decision-making functions are located in the United States.

Other Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in our 2022 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to those policies.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (the “JOBS Act”). The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period and, as a result, we will not be required to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies so long as we remain an emerging growth company.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended, which sets forth a “current expected credit loss” (“CECL”) model that requires us to measure all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost and applies to some off-balance sheet credit exposures. We adopted ASU 2016-13, as amended, on January 1, 2023 using a modified retrospective approach and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to accumulated deficit. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Convertible Debt, Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity and EPS. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for convertible debt by removing the requirements to separately present certain conversion features in equity. In addition, the amendment also simplifies the guidance in ASC Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity's Own Equity, by removing certain criteria that must be satisfied in order to classify a contract as equity. Further, contracts which can be settled in cash or shares, excluding liability-classified share-based payment awards, are to be included in diluted earnings per share using the “if-converted” method if the effect is dilutive, regardless of whether the entity or the counterparty can choose between cash and share settlement. The share-settlement presumption may not be rebutted based on past experience or a stated policy. ASC 2020-06 is effective for us on January 1, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. ASU 2020-06 may be adopted through either the fully retrospective or modified retrospective method of transition. We do not expect this standard to have a material impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 5 — Business Combinations

On August 31, 2022, we acquired 100% of the equity interests in Palamedrix, Inc. ("Palamedrix") (the “Palamedrix Acquisition”) in exchange for purchase consideration of $29.7 million. Consideration transferred included cash of $15.8 million, equity consideration of $12.5 million, and contingent consideration of $1.4 million. Palamedrix is a DNA nano tech firm that provides scientific and engineering expertise, miniaturization technology and enhanced ease-of-use capabilities that we intend to leverage as we develop the next generation of SomaScan® Assay.

The Palamedrix Acquisition provided for up to $0.5 million to be paid to the founders contingent upon settlement of pre-acquisition legal matters (the “Holdback Contingent Consideration”). It also provided for three potential additional payments of up to $17.5 million to the owners, including non-founder and founder employees, to be settled in cash and/or Common Stock contingent on the achievement of certain net sales milestone targets by the fifth and sixth year anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition (the “Milestone Contingent Consideration”).

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of accrued interest on investments recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Our investments consist of money market funds, commercial paper, U.S. Treasuries, corporate bonds, and agency bonds. All of the commercial paper, U.S. Treasuries, corporate bonds and agency bonds are designated as available-for-sale securities and have an effective maturity date that is less than one year from the respective balance sheet date, and accordingly, have been classified as current in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We classify our investments in money market funds within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. We classify our commercial paper, U.S. Treasuries, asset-backed securities, corporate bonds and agency bonds as Level 2 and obtain the fair value from a third-party pricing service, which may use quoted market prices for identical or comparable instruments or model-driven valuations using observable market data or inputs corroborated by observable market data.

We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023. Under the new guidance, we evaluated our available-for-sale securities with unrealized losses for impairment, considering available evidence, including the extent to which fair value is less than cost, whether an allowance for expected credit loss is required, and adverse factors that could affect the value of the securities. Any unrealized losses from declines in fair value below the amortized cost basis as a result of non-credit factors are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, along with unrealized gains. Realized gains and losses and declines in fair value, if any, on available-for-sale securities are included in interest and other income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

We evaluated the available-for-sale securities as of September 30, 2023 and determined that no available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position are arising from credit related reasons. Additionally, we do not intend to sell or believe that it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the securities before recovery of the amortized cost bases and have therefore not recorded any allowances for available-for-sale securities in our allowance for expected credit losses as of September 30, 2023. We did not recognize material realized gains or losses for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The following table presents information about our liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs we utilized to determine such fair value:

Liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 as follows:

(in thousands)			September 30, 2023						December 31, 2022
Other current liabilities			$	450					$	—
Warrant liabilities			2,317						4,213
Other long-term liabilities			1,512						1,630
Total liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis			$	4,279					$	5,843

Warrant liabilities

The public warrants were valued using Level 1 inputs as they are traded in an active market. The fair value of the private placement warrants is equivalent to that of the public warrants as they have substantially the same terms; however, as they are not actively traded, they are classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy table above.

Earn-out liability

The fair value of the Earn-Out Shares was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value is based on the simulated price of the Company over the maturity date of the contingent consideration and increased by estimated forfeitures of Earn-Out Shares issued to Earn-Out Service Providers. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the earn-out liability was determined to be immaterial and was fully written off. As of September 30, 2023, the Earn-Out Shares have been forfeited as the 24-month anniversary of the closing date of the SPAC Merger has passed.

Milestone Contingent Consideration

The fair value of the Milestone Contingent Consideration was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value is based on an option pricing framework, whereby a range of possible scenarios were simulated around forecasted net sales.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the Monte Carlo simulation to measure the Milestone Contingent Consideration that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy were as follows:

						September 30, 2023						December 31, 2022
Volatility						25.0%						35.0		%
Risk-free rate						4.9%						4.0		%
Weighted average cost of capital						30.0%						30.0		%
Cost of debt						12.5% - 13.2%						10.0		%

The change in the fair value of the Milestone Contingent Consideration is summarized as follows:

(in thousands)			Fair Value
Balance as of December 31, 2022			$	1,165
Change in fair value of Milestone Contingent Consideration			347
Balance as of September 30, 2023			$	1,512

Holdback Contingent Consideration

The fair value of Holdback Contingent Consideration was estimated using a scenario-based analysis. The fair value is based on the expected holdback release date and expected holdback payment. The future expected payments were discounted to the valuation date using the cost of debt.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the scenario-based analysis to measure the holdback contingent consideration that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy were as follows:

						September 30, 2023						December 31, 2022
Cost of debt						13.5%						10.2		%

Note 7 — Leases

We have operating leases for certain office spaces with lease terms ranging from two to five years. These leases require monthly lease payments that may be subject to annual increases throughout the lease term. Certain of these leases also include renewal options at our election to renew or extend the leases for additional periods ranging from three to ten years. These optional periods have not been considered in the determination of the ROU assets or lease liabilities associated with these leases as we did not consider the exercise of these options to be reasonably certain. The ROU asset is included in other long-term assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and was $4.3 million and $3.9 million as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Lease Costs

Lease costs for operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The total lease cost for the period was as follows:

Supplemental Lease Information

Supplemental information related to our operating leases was as follows:

			September 30, 2023
Weighted average remaining lease term			2.6 years
Weighted average discount rate			4.3		%

Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of our operating lease liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $1.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

In July 2023, we extended the term of a lease for office space by three years. The lease was set to expire in December 2023 and will now expire in December of 2026. The amendment was accounted for as a lease modification and resulted in a $2.0 million increase to the related ROU asset and operating lease liability.

In February 2022, we executed two separate lease agreements (the “Leases”) to lease buildings pending construction that had not yet commenced. Both leases were set to expire on November 30, 2033, unless extended or early terminated in accordance with the terms of the lease. In accordance with the lease agreements, we made a deposit of $4.1 million during the first quarter of 2022. The deposit was restricted from withdrawal and held by a bank in the form of collateral for an irrevocable standby letter of credit held as security.

On August 25, 2022, we entered into a lease termination agreement (the “Lease Termination”) for the Leases prior to lease commencement. As consideration for the termination of the Leases, we agreed to pay the landlord a termination fee

of $6.0 million of which $2.5 million was paid on the termination date. During the fourth quarter of 2022 the remaining liability was reduced by $1.0 million after the landlord entered into a separate lease with a third party. The remaining $2.5 million liability was paid in January 2023 and the $4.1 million deposit was released in March 2023.

Note 10 — Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to claims and assessments from time to time in the ordinary course of business. We will accrue a liability for such matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. We are not currently party to any material legal proceedings in which a potential loss is probable or reasonably estimable.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, we enter into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide for general indemnifications. Our exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves claims that may be made against us in the future, but that have not yet been made. To date, we have not paid any claims or been required to defend any action related to our indemnification obligations. However, we may record charges in the future as a result of these indemnification obligations.

Note 11 — Stockholders' Equity

Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, we are authorized to issue 600,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value of $0.0001 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

As of September 30, 2023, there were an aggregate of 5,519,991 and 5,013,333 outstanding public warrants and private placement warrants, respectively. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share at any time commencing on February 25, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, no warrants have been exercised. The warrants will expire on September 1, 2026 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

There have been no significant changes to the disclosures in our 2022 Form 10-K related to Common Stock, preferred stock, or our public and private placement warrants, including warrant redemption terms.

Note 12 — Stock-based Compensation

We have various stock-based compensation plans, which are more fully described in Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements - Stock-based Compensation” in the 2022 Form 10-K. Under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), we have the ability to grant several forms of incentive awards to our eligible employees, directors, and non-employee consultants.

Effective January 2023, we increased the reserve of Common Stock for issuance under all incentive plans by approximately 9 million shares in accordance with the 2021 Plan.

The following table summarizes our stock-based compensation expense:

			Three Months Ended September 30,												Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)			2023						2022						2023						2022
Cost of assay services revenue			$	180					$	327					$	556					$	910

Total stock-based compensation			$	4,004					$	16,894					$	15,494					$	35,025

The following table summarizes activity for stock options and RSUs during the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

			Stock Options(1)						RSUs(2)
Outstanding as of December 31, 2022			23,541,194						3,084,379
Granted			6,460,990						1,365,035
Exercised or Issued			(124,173)						(776,598)
Forfeited			(4,139,356)						(943,918)
Expired			(62,857)						—
Outstanding as of September 30, 2023			25,675,798						2,728,898

(1)    The stock options generally vest over four years, with 25% vesting upon the first-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining options vesting ratably each month thereafter.

(2)    The RSUs vest subject to the satisfaction of service requirements. The grant date fair values of these awards are determined based on the closing price of our Common Stock on the date of grant.

We also incurred incremental stock-based compensation expense related to option modifications of nil and $1.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. We incurred incremental stock-based compensation related to option modifications of $7.5 million and $7.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

We recorded $1.4 million and $5.0 million in stock-based compensation expense related to the Service Provider Earn-Outs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. As the derived service period has passed, expenses related to the Service Provider Earn-Outs were fully recognized as of December 31, 2022.

Note 13 — Income Taxes

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized a provision for income taxes of $0.5 million after applying our estimated annual effective income tax rate, which reflects the impacts of the previously recorded valuation allowance. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded an income tax benefit of

23

Table of Contents

Unaudited

$0.6 million as a result of a change in our previously recorded valuation allowance due to deferred tax liabilities attributable to indefinite-lived assets that resulted from the Palamedrix Acquisition.

The provision for foreign income taxes was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Utilization of our net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such an annual limitation could result in the expiration or elimination of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before utilization. Management believes that the limitation will not limit utilization of the carryforwards prior to their expiration.

Note 14 — Net Loss Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share:

			Three Months Ended September 30,												Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands, except share and per share data)			2023						2022						2023						2022
Net loss			$	(22,157)					$	(32,942)					$	(81,131)					$	(59,906)
Weighted-average shares outstanding, basic and diluted			187,070,510						184,407,874						186,780,699						183,209,213
Net loss per share, basic and diluted			$	(0.12)					$	(0.18)					$	(0.43)					$	(0.33)

During periods in which we incur a net loss, diluted weighted average shares outstanding are equal to basic weighted average shares outstanding because the effect of all awards is anti-dilutive. The following outstanding shares of potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented because including them would have been anti-dilutive:

			Three and Nine Months Ended September 30,
			2023						2022
Anti-dilutive shares:
Stock options to purchase common stock			25,675,798						23,393,872
Public warrants and private placement warrants			10,533,324						10,533,324
Unvested RSUs			2,728,898						3,180,425
Replacement awards subject to vesting conditions			933,242						1,209,801
Employee stock purchase plan			78,031						45,783
Total anti-dilutive shares			39,949,293						38,363,205

Note 15 — Related Parties

Casdin Partners Master Fund, L.P (“Casdin”), founded by Eli Casdin, a member of our Board of Directors and one of our principal owners, was a shareholder of Palamedrix. Upon our acquisition of Palamedrix, Casdin received $0.8 million in cash, $0.8 million in equity, and the right to receive up to $0.3 million of Milestone Contingent Consideration related to the achievement of net sales milestones.

Note 16 — Restructuring

On December 16, 2022, following the completion of a strategic review of our business, we announced a workforce reduction plan (the "Strategic Reorganization") to reduce operating costs and focus on long-term growth opportunities in our life sciences business. Under this Strategic Reorganization, we reduced our workforce by approximately 16%, with a majority of these employees separating in December and the remaining affected employees separating over the next three-month period. Employees who were impacted by the restructuring were eligible to receive severance benefits contingent upon an impacted employee's execution of a separation agreement, which included a general release of claims against us. Certain impacted employees were covered by employment agreements or an existing severance plan that provides termination benefits.

One-time termination benefits were recorded pursuant to ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, while termination benefits under ongoing benefit arrangements were recorded pursuant to ASC 712, Compensation - Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits.

We recognized restructuring charges of approximately nil and $1.1 million primarily related to one-time termination benefits during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. We do not expect to incur additional

material employee severance and benefits expense. This reflects our best estimate, which may be revised in subsequent periods as the Strategic Reorganization progresses.

The following table outlines the components of the restructuring charges included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss:

(in thousands)			Three Months Ended September 30, 2023						Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
Cost of assay services revenue			$	—					$	19
Research and development			—						243
Selling, general and administrative			—						838
Total employee severance and benefits			$	—					$	1,100

The following table outlines the changes in liabilities associated with our Strategic Reorganization, including restructuring expenses incurred and cash payments for the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

(in thousands)
Balance at December 31, 2022			$	2,223
Accruals			1,062
Payments			(2,969)
Balance at September 30, 2023			$	316

The restructuring liabilities are included in accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We expect that substantially all of the remaining accrued restructuring liabilities will be paid in cash over the next 12 months. The charges recognized in the rollforward of our accrued restructuring liabilities do not include items charged directly to expense for extension of the exercise period of vested options.

Note 17 — Subsequent Event

On October 4, 2023, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Standard BioTools, Inc. (“Standard BioTools”) and Martis Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Standard BioTools, pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into SomaLogic (the “Merger”), and we will continue as a wholly owned subsidiary of Standard BioTools. At the effective time of the Merger, each share of our common stock issued and outstanding will be converted into a right to receive 1.11 (the “Exchange Ratio”) shares of common stock of Standard BioTools (“Standard BioTools Common Stock”). Our common stockholders will own approximately 57% and Standard BioTools’ common stockholders will own approximately 43% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the combined company on a fully diluted basis.

In addition, as of the effective time of the Merger, Standard BioTools will assume each of our stock incentive plans, outstanding options to purchase shares of our common stock (the “Options”), and outstanding restricted stock units convertible into shares of our common stock (“RSUs” and together with the Options, the “Equity Awards”), whether vested or unvested. Each such Equity Award so assumed by Standard BioTools will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions applicable to such Equity Award immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, except that (i) such Option will be exercisable for that number of shares of Standard BioTools Common Stock equal to the number of shares of our common stock subject to such Option immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger multiplied by the Exchange Ratio and rounded down to the next nearest share of Standard BioTools common stock, (ii) the exercise price per share will be the exercise price per share in effect for that Option immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger divided by the Exchange Ratio and rounded up to the next nearest cent and (iii) such RSU will vest for that number of shares of Standard BioTools Common Stock equal to the number of shares of our common stock subject to such RSU immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger multiplied by the Exchange Ratio and rounded to the next nearest share of Standard BioTools Common Stock.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the related notes thereto, presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”). The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements based upon our current expectations, estimates and projections that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to, among other considerations, the matters discussed under Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to the business of SomaLogic prior to the consummation of the SPAC Merger, and to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries following the consummation of the SPAC Merger.

SomaLogic, Inc. and our Predecessor

SomaLogic was originally formed as a special purpose acquisition company under the name CM Life Sciences II Inc. for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Prior to the SPAC Merger, it did not have historical financial operating results. SomaLogic Operating, our accounting predecessor, is a leading commercial-stage proteomics company. In connection with the SPAC Merger, SomaLogic Operating became a wholly owned subsidiary of SomaLogic.

Business Overview

SomaLogic is a leading commercial-stage proteomics company. We have built an integrated proteomics platform (“SomaScan Platform”) capable of robust, high throughput proteomics analysis with broad proteome coverage, low limits of detection, high reproducibility and at low costs. We designed our platform with the goal of being a universal proteomics platform, with the breadth (number of proteins measured) and precision (accuracy of measurement) important for discovery and research applications, and both the reproducibility and robustness important for clinical applications. We currently run our platform within our own laboratory, receive samples from customers and provide them proteomics analysis services. We have also developed an integrated solution comprising kits and select equipment that enables customers to use our SomaScan Platform at their own sites and leverage our bioinformatics capabilities to analyze the data.

On August 31, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Palamedrix, Inc. Palamedrix is a DNA nano tech firm that provides deep scientific and engineering expertise, miniaturization technology and enhanced ease-of-use capabilities that we intend to leverage as it develops the next generation of SomaScan® Assay. The acquisition expands the development of our portfolio of services, while enhancing our research capabilities, and providing an immediate footprint in the San Diego area with already-established staff, lab, and strong local talent pool.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation has impacted our results of operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, and our business could continue to be affected by inflation in the future.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

The following factors have been important to our business and we expect them to impact our results of operations and financial condition in future periods:

•Continued adoption of our services and products:

◦We have a well-established base of marquee customer and Key Opinion Leader (“KOL”) relationships in place, and as we grow further, we expect to win contracts with new customers and expand the scope of existing contracts with existing customers.

◦We plan to develop and grow our offering of reagents and corresponding solutions, including both small and large plex capabilities, site-of-service deployed assay options, and bioinformatics offerings to attract additional customers and cross-sell to existing customers.

◦We continue to focus on growing our proteomics database and artificial intelligence and machine learning analytics to drive value and market opportunities.

◦We expect our total revenue may vary from period to period based on, among other things, the timing and size of new contracts, fluctuations in customer consumption of and adoption trends, ramp time and productivity of our salesforce, the impact of significant transactions, and seasonality. Failure to effectively develop and expand our sales and marketing capabilities or improve the productivity of our

27

---

sales and marketing organization could harm our ability to expand our potential customer and sales pipeline, increase our customer base, and achieve broader market acceptance of our offering.

•Continued investment in growth:

◦We continue to invest significantly in our laboratory process and commercial infrastructure.

◦Investments in research and development will include hiring of employees with the necessary scientific and technical backgrounds to enable enhancements to our existing services and products and bring new services and products to market.

•Ability to lower the costs associated with performing the assay:

◦We intend to reduce the cost of manufacturing inventory by, in part, modifying our assays and laboratory processes to use materials and technologies that provide equal or greater quality at lower cost, improving how we manage our materials and negotiating favorable terms for our materials purchases.

◦We intend to reduce the cost of performing our SomaScan® assay as we move to either a less expensive array or Next Generation Sequencing system for our DNA readout of the protein concentrations present in a sample.

•Seasonality:

◦Our revenue can be seasonal dependent upon the procurement and budgeting cycles of many of our customers, especially government- or grant-funded customers, whose cycles often coincide with government fiscal year ends.

•Expansion of our proteomic content:

◦To maintain our competitive advantage, we plan to increase the number of protein reagents for commercial availability based on allocated funding, resource availability, and the successful validation of new reagents.

•Macroeconomic conditions:

◦A deterioration in macroeconomic economic conditions including risk of recession, decreased government funding, effects of inflation, labor shortages, supply chain issues and higher interest rates could impact both our and our customers’ operations. We could experience pricing pressure and decreased demand as a result.

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

We derive our revenue from four primary sources: (1) assay services revenue, (2) product revenue, (3) collaboration revenue, and (4) other revenue. Customers include top biopharmaceutical companies and leading academic research universities.

Assay services revenue

We generate assay services revenue primarily from the sale of SomaScan® services. SomaScan® service revenue is derived from performing the SomaScan® assay on customer samples to generate data on protein biomarkers. We expect assay services revenue to increase over the long-term with new and recurring sales opportunities. With the enhancement of our proteomic services, we expect to capture more market opportunities outside of the United States region, as well as winning contracts with new customers and expanding the scope of sales with existing customers.

Product revenue

Product revenue primarily consists of equipment and kit sales, which enable our customers to bring the SomaScan® proteomic platform in-house and to build lines of business based on this technology. The establishment of SomaScan® Certified Sites will allow SomaLogic to quickly grow into new geographic regions and expand our customer base.

Collaboration revenue

Collaboration revenue consists of fees earned for research and development services, except for grant revenue research and development services that are classified in other revenue. Collaboration revenue currently relates to an arrangement with one customer, NEC Solution Innovators, Ltd. (“NES”), a wholly owned subsidiary of NEC Corporation

28

---

(“NEC”). We believe expanding collaborative arrangements with KOLs will allow for further enhancements of our integrated platform, lower barriers to adoption and introduce or expand new market channels and customers within geographic regions and markets we do not currently operate in.

Other revenue

Other revenue includes royalty revenue and revenue received from research grants. We recognize royalty revenue for fees paid by customers in return for a license to make, use or sell certain licensed products in certain geographic areas in the period in which the subsequent sale or usage has occurred. A license arrangement entered into in September 2022 with New England BioLabs (“NEB”) includes guaranteed fixed minimum royalties for which revenue has been recognized, net of the effect of a significant financing component. Any revenue above the guaranteed fixed minimum royalties is recognized in the period in which the subsequent sale or usage has occurred. Grant revenue represents funding under cost reimbursement programs from government agencies, and non-profit foundations for qualified research and development activities we perform. We expect other revenue to continue to grow as we expand our commercial team and continue to pursue additional licensing relationships.

Cost of revenue

Cost of assay services revenue

Cost of assay services revenue consists of raw materials and production costs, salaries and other personnel costs, overhead and other direct costs related to assay services revenue. It also includes costs for production variances, such as yield losses, material usages, spending and capacity variances. Cost of assay services revenue is recognized in the period the related revenue is recognized.

We expect cost of assay services revenue to increase as we grow our sample volume. We expect the cost per sample to decrease over the long term due to the efficiencies we may gain as sample volume increases from improved utilization of our laboratory capacity and other value engineering initiatives. If our sample volume throughput is reduced cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue may be adversely impacted due to fixed overhead cost.

Cost of product revenue

Cost of product revenue consists primarily of raw materials, equipment and production costs, salaries and other personnel costs, overhead and other direct costs related to product revenue. Cost of product revenue is recognized in the period the related revenue is recognized. Shipping and handling costs incurred for product shipments are included in cost of product revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Research and development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, laboratory supplies, clinical study costs, consulting fees and related costs. We believe that our continued investment in research and development is essential to our long-term competitive position. We plan to continue to invest significantly in our research and development efforts, including hiring additional employees, with an expected focus on advancing our assay and our bioinformatics platform, new clinical studies, as well as lowering the cost of assays. As a result of these and other initiatives, we expect research and development expenses will increase in absolute dollars in future periods and vary from period to period as a percentage of revenue.

Selling, general and administrative

Selling expenses consist primarily of personnel and marketing related costs. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs for our finance, human resources, business development and general management, as well as professional services, such as legal and accounting services.

As we continue to introduce new services and products, broaden our customer base and grow our business, we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in future periods as the number of sales and marketing and administrative personnel grows. We also anticipate incurring increased accounting, audit, legal, regulatory, compliance, director and officer insurance costs, as well as, investor and public relations expenses associated with operating as a public company.

Transaction costs

Transaction costs include legal, accounting and professional services expenses that are directly related to mergers and acquisitions. Transaction costs are expensed in the period they are incurred.

29

Interest income and other, net

Interest income and other, net primarily consists of interest earned on our cash equivalents and investments, which are invested in money market funds, commercial paper, U.S Treasuries, asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, and agency bonds. Interest income and other, net also includes interest income recognized related to a significant financing component.

Change in fair value of warrant liabilities

Change in fair value of warrant liabilities consists of changes in fair value related to the Public Warrant and Private Warrant liabilities. The warrant liabilities are classified as marked-to-market liabilities pursuant to ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and the corresponding increase or decrease in value impacts our net loss.

Change in fair value of earn-out liability

Change in fair value of earn-out liability consists of changes in the earn-out liability related to Earn-Out Shares issued as part of the SPAC Merger. The earn-out liability is classified as a marked-to-market liability pursuant to ASC 815 and the corresponding increase or decrease in value impacts our net loss.

Results of Operations

NM    A percentage calculation is not meaningful due to change in signs, a zero-value denominator or a percentage change greater than 200.

Total revenue decreased by $19.7 million, or 47%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The overall decrease was driven by the timing of revenue recognition for our guaranteed fixed minimum royalties under our agreement with NEB, described further below.

Assay services revenue remained relatively flat for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, increasing by $0.3 million. However, assay services revenue increased by $3.5 million as a result of an increase in the average selling price of samples processed, which was offset by a decrease of $3.2 million due to reduced volume of samples processed. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company processed 10 thousand samples for a single customer at a significant discount, resulting in both an increase in average selling price and a decrease in volume for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Product revenue increased by $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to an increase in the volume of kit and equipment sales.

Other revenue decreased by $22.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by timing of revenue recognition for our guaranteed fixed minimum royalties under our agreement with NEB. The aggregate amount of the guaranteed fixed minimum royalties was recognized immediately upon entering the agreement with NEB in September of 2022, resulting in no revenue recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2023. However, we continue to receive fixed minimum royalty payments under this agreement.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized a provision for income taxes of $0.5 million after applying our estimated annual effective income tax rate, which reflects the impacts of the previously recorded valuation allowance. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded an income tax benefit of $0.6 million as a result of a change in our previously recorded valuation allowance due to deferred tax liabilities that resulted from the Palamedrix Acquisition.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present non-GAAP financial measures in order to assist readers of our condensed consolidated financial statements in understanding the core operating results used by management to evaluate and run the business, as well as, for financial planning purposes. Our non-GAAP financial measure, Adjusted EBITDA, provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our financial performance over multiple periods.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess its operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA facilitates internal comparisons of our operating performance on a more consistent basis, and we use this measure for business planning, forecasting, and decision-making. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance as it is useful in assessing our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by those adjusted items. Our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate this measure in the same manner.

Adjusted EBITDA

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, income tax provision, and other non-recurring items. The other non-recurring items include the change in the fair value of warrant liabilities, change in fair value of the earn-out liability, stock-based compensation expense related to equity award modifications, and restructuring charges.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Outlook

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and investments will be sufficient to support working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our sample volume growth rate, the pace of expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing and extent of spending to supporting research and development efforts, the introduction of new and enhanced products and services, and the level of costs to operate as a public company. We may, in the future, enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, products and technologies.

Cash Sources

Historically, our primary sources of liquidity have been proceeds from the SPAC Merger, cash collected from our customers, net proceeds from sale of our capital stock, and borrowings from debt facilities. During the first nine months of 2023, our primary source of liquidity was cash collected from our customers in the amount of $58.6 million.

As of September 30, 2023, we did not have any outstanding debt.

Cash Uses

Historically, our primary use of cash has been to invest in research and development, our laboratory process, commercial infrastructure and scale our operations to support growth.

We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event we require additional financing, we may not be able to raise such financing on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand our operations and invest in continued innovation, we may not be able to compete successfully, which would harm our business, operations, and financial condition.

We also have entered into various non-cancelable operating lease agreements for administrative and laboratory facilities. As of September 30, 2023, our total future minimum lease commitments were $5.0 million.

Cash flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented:

			Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)			2023						2022
Net cash used in operating activities			$	(90,647)					$	(74,061)
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities			(30,272)						14,737
Net cash provided by financing activities			422						4,885
Effect of exchange rates on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash			(37)						(41)
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash			$	(120,534)					$	(54,480)

Cash flows from operating activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our primary use of cash in operating activities included payments for employee compensation and other employee costs of approximately $79.2 million, payments to suppliers for materials of approximately $37.4 million, payments to third-party consultants of approximately $16.2 million, and payments to marketing agencies of approximately $7.4 million. Other uses of cash included payments for taxes, insurance, and occupancy costs, amongst other things. Our cash payments were partially offset by cash receipts from customers of $58.6 million.

Net cash used in operating activities increased from the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily because cash used in operations in 2022 was offset by an upfront payment of $30.0 million pursuant to the Illumina Agreement. The change in cash used in operating activities was also impacted by the timing of cash receipts from customers and payments to vendors, which partially offset the impact of the $30.0 million payment from Illumina.

Cash flows from investing activities

Cash provided by investing activities consists primarily of maturities and sales of investments in marketable securities. Cash used in investing activities consists primarily of purchases of marketable securities, purchases of property and equipment, and payments for acquisitions.

Net cash used in investing activities increased from the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily as a result of an increase in net purchases, partially offset by maturities, and sales of marketable securities, partially offset by a decrease in cash used for acquisitions. The Company increased its net purchases of marketable securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to increased focus on cash management strategy, with the intent to further offset expenses with interest income.

Cash flows from financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities consists of proceeds from the exercise of stock options from the employee stock purchase plan. Cash provided by financing activities decreased from the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily due to a decrease in stock option exercises, as a result of the gradual decline in our stock price.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs, expenses and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an on-going basis. We base our estimates on current facts, historical and anticipated results, trends, and other relevant assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material to our condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations. Within the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely event that would result in materially different amounts being reported.

Our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, in our 2022 Form 10-K. Our most critical accounting policies and estimates are those that require difficult, subjective, and/or complex judgments and estimates and are used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described in more detail in Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in our 2022 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our 2022 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Please refer to Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies - Recent Accounting Pronouncements, in “Part I. Financial Information - Item 1. Financial Statements” for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements and their anticipated effect on our business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not required for smaller reporting companies. 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2023. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2023, based on the material weaknesses described below. In light of these material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Based on such analysis and notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believe the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with GAAP.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues within a company are detected. The inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term as defined in Rules 13a-15(f)and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to maintaining records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that the receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with our management and directors authorization; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention of or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As of September 30, 2023, our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in "Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)", issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this assessment and those criteria, management determined that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2023, due to the material weaknesses described below.

Previously Identified Material Weaknesses

37

---

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The following material weaknesses were identified as a result of management’s assessment:

•As discussed in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K filed for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting due to ineffective controls over the financial statement close process and lack of sufficient accounting and financial reporting personnel to ensure consistent application of GAAP and compliance with SEC rules and regulations.

•As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2022, we continued to identify material weaknesses related to the design and operation of controls supporting key principles related to the control activities, information and communication, and monitoring components of the COSO framework over: (i) significant nonrecurring transactions and events, (ii) inventory costing and classification, and (iii) the classification and presentation of the consolidated statement of cash flows. Specifically, management failed to design and implement certain risk assessment controls related to identifying and analyzing risks to achieve control objectives, and failed to address the impact of changes in the business on the system of internal controls

•As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2022, we identified a material weakness related to our information technology general controls. Specifically, effective controls were not maintained over user access to our Enterprise Resources (ERP) system that supports the accounting and reporting processes, causing a lack of segregation of duties in key processes.

These material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until management designs and implements effective controls that operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded through testing that these controls are effective. See “Remediation Plan” for details.

Remediation Plan

We are committed to the planning and implementation of remediation efforts to address control deficiencies and other identified areas of risk. In particular:

•We will enhance the design of existing controls, and where necessary, implement additional controls, over our accounting for significant nonrecurring transactions and will maintain evidence of management review controls.

•We will increase the deployment of both internal and external specialists to assist our management with the evaluation of the accounting for significant nonrecurring transactions.

•We will design and implement controls over inventory costing and classification.

•We will design and implement controls to ensure that all cash inflow and outflow activity is appropriately classified and presented within the statements of cash flow.

•We will remove unnecessary user access to our financially relevant IT systems based on job responsibilities and are in the process of reconfiguring the mapping of “roles and assigned privileges” to “duties” to ensure adequate segregation of duties is maintained within our ERP system.

•We will implement timely periodic reviews of existing user and administrator security roles and privileges.

•We will enhance the design of our information technology general controls over user access provisioning and monitoring controls to enforce appropriate system access and segregation of duties.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the first quarter of 2023 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 party to lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict the outcome of any such lawsuits with certainty, but management believes it is remote that pending or threatened legal matters will have a material adverse impact on our financial condition.

Due to the nature of our business, we are, from time to time, involved in other routine litigation or subject to disputes or claims related to our business activities. In the opinion of our management, none of these other pending litigation, disputes or claims against us, if decided adversely, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There are numerous factors that affect our business and operating results, many of which are beyond our control. The following risk factors supplement and, to the extent inconsistent, supersede, the risk factors described in Part I, “Item IA. Risk Factors” in our 2022 Form 10-K and Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Q2’23 10-Q. The risk factors included herein as well as the risk factors described in the 2022 Form 10-K and Q2’23 10-Q should be carefully considered, together with the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other filings with SEC in connection with evaluating us, our business and the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Additional risks and uncertainties not known to us at present, or that we currently deem immaterial, may affect us. The occurrence of any of these known or unknown risks could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We use artificial intelligence and machine learning in our business, and challenges with properly managing its use could result in reputational harm, competitive harm, and legal liability, and adversely affect our results of operations.

We currently incorporate artificial intelligence and machine learning (“AI”) solutions into our bioinformatics capabilities, and these applications may become important in our operations over time. Our competitors or other third parties may incorporate AI into their products and offerings more quickly or more successfully than us, which could impair our ability to compete effectively and adversely affect our results of operations. Additionally, if the content, analyses, or recommendations that AI applications assist in producing are or are alleged to be inaccurate, deficient, or biased, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected. The use of AI applications has resulted in, and may in the future result in, cybersecurity incidents that implicate the sensitive data of customers analyzed within such applications. Any such cybersecurity incidents related to our use of AI applications for analysis of sensitive data could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations. AI also presents emerging ethical issues and if our use of AI becomes controversial, we may experience brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, or legal liability. The rapid evolution of AI, including potential government regulation of AI and it various uses, will require significant resources to develop, test and maintain our intelligence cloud platform, offerings, services, and features to help us implement AI ethically in order to minimize unintended, harmful impact.

Risks related to our strategic merger with Standard BioTools Inc.

Our merger with Standard BioTools is subject to various closing conditions, including governmental approvals, and other uncertainties and there can be no assurances as to whether and when it may be completed.

On October 4, 2023, we entered into the Merger Agreement, with Standard BioTools and Martis Merger Sub, Inc. Merger Sub pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into us, with our company surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Standard BioTools. The consummation of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions and a number of the conditions are not within our control, and may prevent, delay or otherwise materially adversely affect the completion of the transaction. These conditions include, among other things, (i) approval by the stockholders of Standard BioTools of the Standard BioTools Stock Issuance and the Standard BioTools Charter Amendment (each as defined in the Merger Agreement) ; (ii) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders; (iii) authorization for listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market of the shares of Standard BioTools common stock (including the shares to be issued in the Merger), subject to official notice of issuance; (iv) effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the termination or expiration of any waiting period applicable to the Merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended; and (v) the absence of any law, judgment, order, injunction, ruling, writ award or decree by any governmental entity of competent jurisdiction restraining, enjoining or otherwise preventing the consummation of the Merger. It is also possible that a change, event, fact, effect or circumstance could occur that could lead to a material adverse effect to us, which may give Standard BioTools the ability to not complete the Merger. We cannot predict with certainty whether and when the required closing conditions that have not yet been satisfied will be satisfied or if another uncertainty may arise.

39

---

If the Merger does not receive, or timely receive, the required stockholder approvals, or if another event occurs delaying or preventing the Merger, such delay or failure to complete the Merger may cause uncertainty or other negative consequences that may materially and adversely affect our sales, financial performance and operating results, and the price per share for our common stock and perceived acquisition value.

Additionally, if the Merger is not completed for any reason, the market price of our common stock may decline. Furthermore, we will be required to pay certain costs relating to the Merger, whether or not it is completed, such as significant fees and expenses relating to legal, accounting and printing services. In addition, we could be subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the Merger. If it is not completed, these risks may materially and adversely affect our stock price, operating results and ongoing business.

Further, we and our directors and Standard BioTools could become subject to lawsuits relating to the Merger that may be filed. Three putative shareholder class action lawsuits and one additional putative shareholder lawsuit have been filed by our shareholders challenging the disclosures made in connection with the Merger. The lawsuits seek to enjoin the Merger, to recover damages if the Merger is consummated, attorneys’ fees, and other relief. Additional lawsuits arising out of the Merger may be filed in the future. While we intend to defend against any such actions vigorously, the costs of the defense of such lawsuits and other effects of such litigation could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated, we may, under certain circumstances, be obligated to pay a termination fee to Standard BioTools and these costs could require us to use available cash that would have otherwise been available for general corporate purposes.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated, in certain circumstances, we would be required to pay Standard BioTools a termination fee of $17,176,173 and/or reimburse Standard BioTools’ reasonable out of pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the transaction contemplated thereby up to a maximum of $2,000,000. If the Merger Agreement is terminated, the termination fee we may be required to pay, if any, under the Merger Agreement may require us to use available cash that would have otherwise been available for general corporate purposes. In addition, the failure to complete the Merger may negatively impact our ability to raise additional funds on acceptable terms, or at all. For these and other reasons, a failed Merger could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results or financial condition, which in turn would materially and adversely affect our business or financial condition, the price per share of our common stock or our perceived acquisition value.

While the Merger is pending, we are subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions that could materially adversely affect our operations and the future of our business or result in a loss of employees.

The Merger Agreement includes restrictions on the conduct of our business prior to the completion of the Merger, generally requiring us to conduct our business in the ordinary course, consistent with past practice, and subjecting us to a variety of specified limitations absent Standard BioTools’ prior written consent. We may find that these and other contractual arrangements in the Merger Agreement may delay or prevent us from or limit our ability to respond effectively to competitive pressures, industry developments and future business opportunities that may arise during such period, even if our management and board of directors think they may be advisable. The pendency of the Merger may also divert management’s attention and our resources from ongoing business and operations. Our employees and partners may have uncertainties about the effects of the Merger. Similarly, current and prospective employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with us following completion of the Merger, which may materially adversely affect our ability to attract and retain key employees. If any of these effects were to occur, it could materially and adversely impact our revenues, earnings and cash flows and other business results and financial condition, as well as the market price of our common stock and our perceived acquisition value, regardless of whether the Merger is completed. In addition, whether or not the Merger is completed, while it is pending we will continue to incur costs, fees, expenses and charges related to the proposed Merger, which may materially and adversely affect our business results and financial condition.
