NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(Tabular information in thousands, except per share amounts)
1. OVERVIEW
Nature of Business
Interpace Biosciences, Inc. (“Interpace” or the “Company”) is a company that provides molecular diagnostics, bioinformatics and pathology services for evaluation of risk of cancer by leveraging the latest technology in personalized medicine for improved patient diagnosis and management. The Company develops and commercializes genomic tests and related first line assays principally focused on early detection of patients with indeterminate biopsies and at high risk of cancer using the latest technology.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes (the “Interim Financial Statements”) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (Interpace Diagnostics Lab Inc., Interpace Diagnostics Corporation, and Interpace Diagnostics, LLC), and related notes as included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 27, 2023 and as amended on April 28, 2023.
The Interim Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Interim Financial Statements include all normal recurring adjustments that, in the judgment of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such interim financial statements. Discontinued operations include the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries: Group DCA, LLC, InServe Support Solutions; and TVG, Inc., its Commercial Services business unit which was sold on December 22, 2015 and its Interpace Pharma Solutions business (“Pharma Solutions”) which was sold on August 31, 2022. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

In
January 2022, the Company’s registration statement for a rights offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
became effective; however, the rights offering was subsequently terminated later in January 2022 when the Company announced that the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, issued a new billing policy whereby CMS will no longer reimburse for the use of
the Company’s ThyGeNEXT® and ThyraMIR® tests when billed together by the same provider/supplier for
the same beneficiary on the same date of service. However, on February 28, 2022, the Company announced that the National Correct Coding
Initiative (NCCI) program issued a response on behalf of CMS stating that the January 2022 billing policy reimbursement change for ThyGeNEXT®
(0245U) and ThyraMIR® (0018U) tests has been retroactively reversed to January 1, 2022. In May 2022, the Company
was notified by CMS/NCCI that processing of claims for dates of service after January 1, 2022 would be completed beginning July 1, 2022.
However, on June 9, 2022, the Company was notified that our local Medicare Administrator Contractor, Novitas re-priced ThyGeNEXT®
(0245U) from $
Further, along with many laboratories, the Company may be affected by the Proposed Local Coverage Determination (“LCD”) DL39365, which was posted on June 9, 2022 and is currently under consideration by Novitas. If finalized, this Proposed LCD, which governs “Genetic Testing for Oncology,” could impact the existing LCD for one of our molecular tests, PancraGEN®. If Novitas restricts coverage for PancraGEN®, the Company’s liquidity could be negatively impacted beginning in Fiscal 2023.

The
Company may not generate positive cash flows from operations for the year ending December 31, 2023. The Company intends to meet its ongoing
capital needs by using its available cash and availability under the Comerica Loan Agreement, as well as through targeted margin improvement;
collection of accounts receivable; containment of costs; and the potential use of other financing options and other strategic alternatives.
However, if the Company is unable to meet the financial covenants under the Comerica Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit and
notes payable will become due and payable immediately. As of May 1, 2023, the Company had $

The Company’s consolidated financial statements assumes the Company will continue as a going concern. Its ability to continue as a going concern depends on having working capital for vendor payments, meeting short-term obligations on other accrued liabilities, and amongst other requirements, making interest payments on its debt obligations. Without positive operating margins and sufficient working capital and the ability to meet its debt obligations, our business will be jeopardized and we may not be able to continue in our current structure, if at all. Under these circumstances, the Company would likely have to consider other options, such as selling assets, raising additional debt or equity capital, cutting costs or otherwise reducing our cash requirements, or negotiating with our creditors to restructure our applicable obligations. With the proceeds received from the sale of the Pharma Solutions business, as well as the expected improvement in future operating cash flows associated with the disposition, as of the date of this filing, the Company anticipates that current cash and cash equivalents and forecasted cash receipts will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the next twelve months.

5. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management’s estimates are based on historical experience, facts and circumstances available at the time, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates include accounting for valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, contingent consideration, allowances for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition, unrecognized tax benefits, and asset impairments involving intangible assets. The Company periodically reviews these matters and reflects changes in estimates in earnings as appropriate. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
We derive our revenues from the performance of proprietary assays or tests. The Company’s performance obligation is fulfilled upon the completion, review and release of test results to the customer. The Company subsequently bills third-party payers or direct-bill payers for the tests performed. Under Accounting Standards Codification 606, revenue is recognized based on the estimated transaction price or net realizable value, which is determined based on historical collection rates by each payer category for each proprietary test offered by the Company. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, for all third party and direct-bill payers and proprietary tests, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using the expected value method based on historical experience.
We regularly review the ultimate amounts received from the third-party and direct-bill payers and related estimated reimbursement rates and adjust the NRV’s and related contractual allowances accordingly. If actual collections and related NRV’s vary significantly from our estimates, we will adjust the estimates of contractual allowances, which affects net revenue in the period such variances become known.
For our Pharma Solutions services, project level activities, including study setup and project management, were satisfied over the life of the contract while performance-related obligations were satisfied at a point in time as the Company processes samples delivered by the customer. Revenues were recognized at a point in time when the test results or other deliverables are reported to the customer.
9 |
Financing and Payment
For non-Medicare claims, our payment terms vary by payer category. Payment terms for direct-payers in our clinical services are typically thirty days and in our pharma services, up to sixty days. Commercial third-party-payers are required to respond to a claim within a time period established by their respective state regulations, generally between thirty to sixty days. However, payment for commercial third-party claims may be subject to a denial and appeal process, which could take up to two years in some instances where multiple appeals are submitted. The Company generally appeals all denials from commercial third-party payers. We bill Medicare directly for tests performed for Medicare patients and must accept Medicare’s fee schedule for the covered tests as payment in full.
Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Customer Contract
Sales commissions are expensed in the period in which they have been earned. These costs are recorded in sales and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable represent unconditional rights to consideration and are generated using its clinical services and Pharma Solutions services. The Company’s clinical services are fulfilled upon completion of the test, review and release of the test results. In conjunction with fulfilling these services, the Company bills the third-party payer or direct-bill payer. Contractual adjustments represent the difference between the list prices and the reimbursement rates set by third-party payers, including Medicare, commercial payers, and amounts billed to direct-bill payers. Specific accounts may be written off after several appeals, which in some cases may take longer than twelve months.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease in whole or in part at the inception of the contract. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term while lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. All leases with terms greater than twelve months result in the recognition of a ROU asset and a liability at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Unless a lease provides all of the information required to determine the implicit interest rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. We use the implicit interest rate in the lease when readily determinable.
Our lease terms include all non-cancelable periods and may include options to extend (or to not terminate) the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with terms of twelve months or less at the commencement date are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term and do not result in the recognition of an asset or liability. See Note 8, Leases.

Other Current Assets
Other current assets consisted of the following as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Lab supplies | $ | $ | ||||||
Prepaid expenses | ||||||||
Funds in escrow | ||||||||
Other | ||||||||
Total other current assets | $ | $ |
Long-Lived Assets, including Finite-Lived Intangible Assets
Finite-lived intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization of finite-lived acquired intangible assets is recognized on a straight-line basis, using the estimated useful lives of the assets of approximately two years to ten years in acquisition-related amortization expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized by reducing the recorded value of the asset to its fair value measured by future discounted cash flows. This analysis requires estimates of the amount and timing of projected cash flows and, where applicable, judgments associated with, among other factors, the appropriate discount rate. Such estimates are critical in determining whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount of such charge if an impairment loss is deemed to be necessary.
A reconciliation of the number of shares of common stock, par value $ per share, used in the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the three- month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their relative short-term nature. The Company’s financial liabilities reflected at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements include contingent consideration, warrant liability and note payable. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market-corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based upon observable inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values into three broad levels as follows:
Level 1: | Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active markets from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. | |
Level 2: | Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities. | |
Level 3: | Valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities. |
12 |
In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The valuation methodologies used for the Company’s financial instruments measured on a recurring basis at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth in the tables below:

In connection with the acquisition of certain assets from Asuragen, Inc., the Company recorded contingent consideration related to contingent payments and other revenue-based payments. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted income approach derived from revenue estimates. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.
In connection with the BroadOak loan, the Company records the loan at fair value. The fair value of the loan is determined by a probability-weighted approach regarding the loan’s change in control feature. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details. The fair value measurement is based on the estimated probability of a change in control and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.

A roll forward of the carrying value of the Contingent Consideration Liability and BroadOak loans to March 31, 2023 is as follows:

Certain of the Company’s non-financial assets, such as other intangible assets, are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when there is an indicator of impairment and recorded at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company is aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a loss will result and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company will record a liability for the loss. In addition to the estimated loss, the recorded liability includes probable and estimable legal costs associated with the claim or potential claim. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the Company’s business. There is no pending litigation involving the Company at this time.
Due to the nature of the businesses in which the Company is engaged, it is subject to certain risks. Such risks include, among others, risk of liability for personal injury or death to persons using products or services that the Company promotes or commercializes. There can be no assurance that substantial claims or liabilities will not arise in the future due to the nature of the Company’s business activities. There is also the risk of employment related litigation and other litigation in the ordinary course of business.
The Company could also be held liable for errors and omissions of its employees in connection with the services it performs that are outside the scope of any indemnity or insurance policy. The Company could be materially adversely affected if it were required to pay damages or incur defense costs in connection with a claim that is outside the scope of an indemnification agreement; if the indemnity, although applicable, is not performed in accordance with its terms; or if the Company’s liability exceeds the amount of applicable insurance or indemnity.

12. INCOME TAXES
Generally, accounting standards require companies to provide for income taxes each quarter based on their estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The authoritative guidance for accounting for income taxes allows use of the discrete method when it provides a better estimate of income tax expense. Due to the Company’s valuation allowance position, it is the Company’s position that the discrete method provides a more accurate estimate of income tax expense and therefore income tax expense for the current quarter has been presented using the discrete method. As the year progresses, the Company refines its estimate based on the facts and circumstances by each tax jurisdiction. The following table summarizes income tax expense on income (loss) from continuing operations and the effective tax rate for the three- month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our plans, objectives, beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “estimates,” “intends,” “projects,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “will” or similar words and expressions. These forward-looking statements are contained throughout this Form 10-Q.
Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of future performance. These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions involving judgments about, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. These predictions are also affected by known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
● | we have a history of operating losses and our clinical services have generated limited revenue; | |
● | our expectations of future revenues, expenditures, capital or other funding requirements; | |
● | our reliance on Medicare reimbursement for our clinical services and our being subject to decisions of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) regarding reimbursement and pricing of our clinical services which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results; | |
● | our ability to continue to perform, bill and receive reimbursement for our PancraGEN molecular test under the existing local coverage determination (“LCD”), given that such LCD is currently under review by Novitas Solutions, Inc. (“Novitas”), the Company’s Medicare administrative contractor; | |
● | our secured lenders have the right to foreclose on substantially all of our assets if we are unable to timely repay our outstanding obligations; | |
● | our dependence on sales and reimbursements from our clinical services for all of our revenue; | |
● | the ability to continue to generate sufficient revenue from our clinical service products and other products and/or solutions that we develop in the future is important for our ability to meet our financial and other targets; | |
● | our ability to finance our business on acceptable terms in the future, which may limit the ability to grow our business, develop and commercialize products and services, develop and commercialize new molecular clinical service solutions and technologies; | |
● | our obligations to make royalty and milestone payments to our licensors; | |
● | our dependence on third parties for the supply of some of the materials used in our clinical services tests; |
22 |
● | the potential adverse impact of current and future laws, licensing requirements and governmental regulations upon our business operations, including but not limited to the evolving U.S. regulatory environment related to laboratory developed tests (“LDTs”), pricing of our tests and services and patient access limitations; | |
● | our reliance on our sales and marketing activities for future business growth and our ability to continue to expand our sales and marketing activities; | |
● | our being subject to the controlling interests of our two private equity investors who control, on an as-converted basis, an aggregate of 64.5% of our outstanding shares of common stock through their holdings of our Series B Preferred Stock, and this concentration of ownership along with their authority for designation rights for a majority of our directors and their right to approve certain of our actions has a substantial influence on our decisions; | |
● | the delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq and subsequent trading on OTCQX® as well as the possible removal of our common stock from trading on the OTCQX® if we fail to meet minimum market capitalization of $5 million for ten consecutive trading days by July 3, 2023 has adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect our common stock and business and financial condition; | |
● | geopolitical and other economic and political conditions or events (such as the war in Ukraine); | |
● | our ability to implement our business strategy; and | |
● | the potential impact of existing and future contingent liabilities on our financial condition. |
Please see Part I – Item 1A – “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 27, 2023, and as amended on April 28, 2023, as well as other documents we file with the SEC from time-to-time, for other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our current expectations as expressed in the forward-looking statements discussed in this Form 10-Q. Because of these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. In addition, these statements speak only as of the date of the report in which they are set forth and, except as may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.
OVERVIEW
We are a fully integrated commercial company that provides molecular diagnostics, bioinformatics and pathology services for evaluation of risk of cancer by leveraging the latest technology in personalized medicine for improved patient diagnosis and management. We develop and commercialize genomic tests and related first line assays principally focused on early detection of patients with indeterminate biopsies and at high risk of cancer using the latest technology.
Impact of Our Reliance on CMS and Novitas
In January 2022, CMS stated they would no longer reimburse for the use of the Company’s ThyGeNEXT® and ThyraMIR® tests when billed together by the same provider/supplier for the same beneficiary on the same date of service. However, on February 28, 2022, the Company announced that the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) program issued a response on behalf of CMS stating that the January 2022 billing policy reimbursement change for ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) and ThyraMIR® (0018U) tests has been retroactively reversed to January 1, 2022. In May 2022, the Company was notified by CMS/NCCI that processing of claims for dates of service after January 1, 2022 would be completed beginning July 1, 2022. However, on June 9, 2022, the Company was notified that Novitas re-priced ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) from $2,919 to $806.59 retroactively effective to January 1, 2022. On July 20, 2022, the Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory Tests (CDLT) Advisory Panel affirmed a gapfill price of $806.59. As a result of the ThyGeNEXT® pricing change, the Company reduced its NRV rates for ThyGeNEXT® Medicare billing to reflect the $806.59 pricing for tests performed during the second quarter of 2022. In addition, in order to reflect the retroactive pricing change to January 1, 2022, the Company recorded an NRV adjustment of $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2022 to reduce revenue recorded during the first quarter of 2022. During July 2022, the Company began implementing cost-savings initiatives including a reduction in headcount and incidental expenses and a freeze on all non-essential travel and hiring. In August 2022, the Company sold its Pharma Solutions business. Effective January 1, 2023, the gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT® was set at $1,266.07.

Further, along with many laboratories, we may be affected by the Proposed Local Coverage Determination (“LCD”) DL39365, which was posted on June 9, 2022 with comments extended to September 6, 2022 due to changes made to the related draft and is currently under consideration by our local Medicare Administrative Contractor, Novitas. If finalized, this Proposed LCD, which governs “Genetic Testing for Oncology,” could impact the existing LCD for one of our molecular tests, PancraGEN®. If Novitas restricts coverage for PancraGEN®, our liquidity could be negatively impacted beginning in Fiscal 2023.
Impact of the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
In February 2022, Russian military forces invaded Ukraine, and although the length, impact, and outcome of the ongoing war in Ukraine is highly unpredictable, this war has led, and could continue to lead, to significant market and other disruptions, including instability in financial markets, supply chain interruptions, political and social instability, and increases in cyberattacks, intellectual property theft, and espionage. We are actively monitoring the situation in Ukraine and assessing its impact on our business.
We have no way to predict the progress or outcome of the war in Ukraine or its impacts in Ukraine, Russia, or Belarus as the war, and any resulting government reactions, are rapidly developing and beyond our control. The extent and duration of the war, sanctions, and resulting market disruptions could be significant and could potentially have a substantial impact on the global economy and our business for an unknown period of time. Any of the above-mentioned factors could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We are also monitoring other macro-economic and geopolitical developments such as inflation and cybersecurity risks so that the Company can be prepared to react to new developments as they arise.
Revenue Recognition
Clinical services derive revenues from the performance of proprietary assays or tests. Our performance obligation is fulfilled upon completion, review and release of test results to the customer, at which time we bill third-party payers or direct-bill payers for the tests performed. Under Accounting Standards Codification 606, revenue is recognized based upon the estimated transaction price or net realizable value (“NRV”), which is determined based on historical collection rates by each payer category for each proprietary test offered. To the extent that the transaction price includes variable consideration, for all third party and direct-bill payers and proprietary tests, we estimate the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using the expected value method based on historical experience.
The ultimate amounts received from the third-party and direct-bill payers and related estimated reimbursement rates are regularly reviewed and we adjust the NRV’s and related contractual allowances accordingly. If actual collections and related NRV’s vary significantly from our estimates, we adjust the estimates of contractual allowances, which affects net revenue in the period such variances become known.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs associated with operating our laboratory and other costs directly related to our tests. Personnel costs, which constitute the largest portion of cost of services, include all labor-related costs, such as salaries, bonuses, fringe benefits and payroll taxes for laboratory personnel. Other direct costs include, but are not limited to, laboratory supplies, certain consulting expenses, royalty expenses, and facility expenses.

Revenue, net
Revenue, net for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased by $1.9 million, or 24%, to $9.8 million, compared to $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was driven by increased test volumes as compared to the prior year.
Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $3.8 million, as compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was approximately 39% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 41% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The percentage decrease was due to the increase in revenue for the quarter.
Gross profit
Gross profit was approximately $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The gross profit percentage was approximately 61% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 59% for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
25 |
Sales and marketing expense
Sales and marketing expense was approximately $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expense decreased to 24% from 28% in the comparable prior year period due to the increase in revenue.
Research and development
Research and development expense was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. As a percentage of revenue, research and development expense decreased to 2% from 3% in the comparable prior year period. The decrease can be primarily attributed to the timing of projects entered into in 2023 as compared to the prior year quarter.
General and administrative
General and administrative expense was approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease can be primarily attributed to a decrease in employee compensation costs.
Acquisition amortization expense
During both the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, we recorded amortization expense of approximately $0.3 million, respectively, which is related to intangible assets associated with prior acquisitions.
Operating income (loss)
Operating income from continuing operations was $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to an operating loss $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 can be primarily attributed to the increase in revenue during the quarter.
Provision for income taxes
Income tax expense was approximately $4,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $18,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax
We had a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 included losses associated with the former Pharma Solutions unit.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, results provided throughout this document, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate the results of our performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP financial measures, are useful to both management and investors in analyzing our ongoing business and operating performance. We believe that providing the non-GAAP information to investors, in addition to the GAAP presentation, allows investors to view our financial results in the way that management views financial results.
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we discuss Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to measure cash flow of the ongoing business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income or loss from continuing operations, plus depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock based compensation, interest and taxes, and other non-cash expenses including change in fair value of notes payable and warrant liability. The table below includes a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In October 2021, we entered into the Comerica Loan Agreement with Comerica, providing for a revolving credit facility of up to $7,500,000 (the “Credit Facility”). The Company is using the proceeds of the Credit Facility for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The amount that may be borrowed under the Credit Facility is the lower of (i) the revolving limit of $7,500,000 (the “Revolving Line”) and (ii) 80% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable plus an applicable non-formula amount consisting of $2,000,000 of additional availability at close not based upon the Company’s eligible accounts receivable, with such additional availability reducing by $250,000 per quarter beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 2022. Borrowings on the Credit Facility are limited to $5,000,000 until 80% of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ customers are paying into a collection account or segregated governmental account with Comerica. The Revolving Line can also include, at the Company’s option, credit card services with a sublimit of $300,000. Borrowings on the Revolving Line are subject to an interest rate equal to prime plus 0.50%, with prime being the greater of (x) Comerica’s stated prime rate or (y) the sum of (A) the daily adjusting LIBOR rate plus (B) 2.5% per annum. The Company is also required to pay an unused facility fee quarterly in arrears in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum on the average unused but available portion of the Revolving Line for such quarter. See Note 17, Revolving Line of Credit, for more details. Comerica has a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets. As of May 1, 2023 the Company owed $2.1 million on the line of credit and had approximately $2.2 million available to borrow on the line.
In addition, also in October 2021, the Company entered into the BroadOak Loan Agreement with BroadOak, providing for a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $8,000,000 (the “Term Loan”). Funding of the Term Loan took place on November 1, 2021. The Term Loan matures upon the earlier of (i) October 31, 2024 or (ii) the occurrence of a change in control, and bears interest at the rate of 9% per annum. The Term Loan is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets and is subordinate to the Company’s $7,500,000 revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank. The Term Loan has an origination fee of 3% of the Term Loan amount, and a terminal payment equal to (i) 15% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan, (ii) 20% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs after the first anniversary but on or prior to the second anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan and (iii) 30% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs after the second anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan, or if the Term Loan is repaid on its maturity date. Upon receipt of the term loan, the proceeds were used to repay in full at their maturity the notes extended by Ampersand and 1315 Capital discussed above. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details. In May 2022, the Company issued a Convertible Note to BroadOak, pursuant to which BroadOak funded a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $2.0 million. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details.

The BroadOak Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative restrictive covenants, including restrictions on certain mergers, acquisitions, investments and encumbrances which could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. The BroadOak Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default. The Comerica Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative restrictive covenants that are applicable whether or not any amounts are outstanding under the Comerica loan agreement. These restrictive covenants, which include restrictions on certain mergers, acquisitions, investments, encumbrances, etc., could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. The Comerica Loan Agreement also contains financial covenants requiring specified minimum liquidity and minimum revenue thresholds and also contains customary events of default. However, if we are unable to meet the financial covenants under the Comerica Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit and notes payable will become due and payable immediately.
In January 2022, the Company’s registration statement for a rights offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) became effective; however, the rights offering was subsequently terminated later in January 2022 when the Company announced that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, issued a new billing policy whereby CMS will no longer reimburse for the use of the Company’s ThyGeNEXT® and ThyraMIR® tests when billed together by the same provider/supplier for the same beneficiary on the same date of service. On February 28, 2022, the Company announced that the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) program issued a response on behalf of CMS stating that the January 2022 billing policy reimbursement change for ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) and ThyraMIR® (0018U) tests has been retroactively reversed to January 1, 2022. In May 2022, the Company was notified by CMS/NCCI that processing of claims for dates of service after January 1, 2022 would be completed beginning July 1, 2022. However, on June 9, 2022, the Company was notified that Novitas re-priced ThyGeNEXT® (0245U) from $2,919 to $806.59 retroactively effective to January 1, 2022. On July 20, 2022 the Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory Tests (CDLT) Advisory Panel affirmed a gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT® of $806.59. As a result of the ThyGeNEXT® pricing change, the Company reduced its net realizable value, or NRV rates for ThyGeNEXT® Medicare billing to reflect the $806.59 pricing for tests performed during the second quarter of 2022. In addition, in order to reflect the retroactive pricing change to January 1, 2022, the Company recorded an NRV adjustment of $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2022 to reduce revenue recorded during the first quarter of 2022. Effective January 1, 2023, the gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT® was set at $1,266.07.
On August 31, 2022, the Company closed on the sale of its Pharma Solutions business for a total sale price of $6.2 million after a post-closing working capital adjustment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we had operating income from continuing operations of $0.7 million. As of the three months ended March 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5.6 million, total current assets of $12.5 million and current liabilities of $13.9 million. As of May 8, 2023, we had approximately $6.7 million of cash on hand.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was $1.1 million. The main component of cash provided by operating activities was our net income of $0.4 million, including non-cash expenses of $0.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $1.3 million. The main component of cash used in operating activities was our net loss of $2.2 million which was partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $1.2 million.
For both periods net cash used in investing activities was primarily related to the purchase of lab equipment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash used in financing activities was $0.3 million, which were payments made on the Revolving Line. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, cash provided from financing activities was $1.1 million, of which $1.0 million was from the drawdown on the Revolving Line. See Note 17, Revolving Line of Credit, for more details.
We did not generate positive cash flows from operations for the year ending December 31, 2022. We intend to meet our ongoing capital needs by using our available cash and availability under the Comerica Loan Agreement, as well as through targeted margin improvement; collection of accounts receivable; containment of costs; and the potential use of other financing options and other strategic alternatives. However, if we are unable to meet the financial covenants under the Comerica Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit and notes payable will become due and payable immediately. The Company anticipates that current cash and cash equivalents and forecasted cash receipts will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the next twelve months.

The Company continues to explore various strategic alternatives, dilutive and non-dilutive sources of funding, including equity and debt financings, strategic alliances, business development and other sources in order to provide additional liquidity. With the delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq in February 2021 and the possible removal of our common stock from trading on the OTCQX® if we fail to meet minimum market capitalization of $5 million for ten consecutive trading days by July 3, 2023, our ability to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to the Company has been adversely impacted. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such funding on terms acceptable to the Company.
Further, along with many laboratories, we may be affected by the Proposed Local Coverage Determination (“LCD”) DL39365, which was posted on June 9, 2022 and is currently under consideration by our local Medicare Administrative Contractor, Novitas If finalized, this Proposed LCD, which governs “Genetic Testing for Oncology,” could impact the existing LCD for one of our molecular tests, PancraGEN®. If Novitas restricts coverage for PancraGEN®, our liquidity could be negatively impacted in the second half of Fiscal 2023.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation had a significant impact on our results of operations for the periods presented. However, inflation and supply chain disruptions, whether caused by restrictions or slowdowns in shipping or logistics, increases in demand for certain goods used in our operations, or otherwise, could impact our operations in the near term.
Critical Accounting Estimates
See Note 5, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 18, Recent Accounting Standards to the Interim Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding newly adopted and recent accounting pronouncements. See also Note 1, Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies to our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as amended, for a discussion of our critical accounting policies. There have been no material changes to such critical accounting policies. We believe our most critical accounting policies include accounting for contingent consideration, revenue recognition, intangible and long-lived assets, research and development expenses and stock-based compensation expense.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives including that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible disclosure controls and procedures relative to their costs to implement and maintain.
Based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Principal Financial Officer of the Company have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023.
Reference should be made to our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 27, 2023, as amended, for additional information regarding discussion of the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures.
Changes in Internal Controls
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
