NOTE 2 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

On July 25, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to implement a strategic cost savings initiative, primarily related to the Company’s Birmingham laboratory. In August 2024, the Company explored options for the leased Birmingham laboratory and office space, including potential sublease arrangements.

 

In September 2024, the Company transferred certain pieces of computer hardware with alternative use to the Pittsburgh laboratory, while the rest of the laboratory equipment and inventories from the Birmingham laboratory were marketed for sale and the related product and service lines were discontinued. The Company executed a sales agreement for all remaining laboratory equipment and inventories from the Birmingham laboratory and all items were removed from the laboratory premises as of September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, the Company vacated and ceased use of the Birmingham laboratory and office space. The Company’s lease continues through August 2025.

 

The Company concluded that, in aggregate, the disposal of these assets comprising the former Birmingham operating segment met the criteria for discontinued operations presentation in the third quarter of 2024. As a result, the former Birmingham operating segment has been reclassified to discontinued operations in these consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.
