NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Organization, Description of the Business and Liquidity
Oncocyte Corporation (“Oncocyte”), incorporated in 2009 in the state of California, is a molecular diagnostics company focused on developing and commercializing proprietary laboratory-developed tests (“LDTs”) to serve unmet medical needs across the cancer care continuum. Oncocyte’s mission is to provide actionable information to physicians and patients at critical decision points to optimize diagnosis and treatment decisions, improve patient outcomes, and reduce overall cost of care. Oncocyte has prioritized lung cancer as its first indication. Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death in the United States, despite the availability of molecular testing and novel therapies to treat patients.
Oncocyte’s
first product for commercial release is a proprietary treatment stratification test called DetermaRx™ that identifies which patients
with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer may benefit from chemotherapy, resulting in a significantly higher, five-year survival rate.
Beginning in September 2019 through February 23, 2021, Oncocyte held a
Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Insight Genetics, Inc. (“Insight”) on January 31, 2020 (the “Insight Merger Date”) through a merger with a newly incorporated wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte (the “Insight Merger”) under the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Insight Merger Agreement”). Prior to the Insight Merger, Insight was a privately held company specializing in the discovery and development of the multi-gene molecular, laboratory-developed diagnostic tests that Oncocyte has branded as DetermaIO™. DetermaIO™ is a proprietary gene expression assay with promising data supporting its potential to help identify patients likely to respond to checkpoint inhibitor drugs. Insight has a CLIA-certified diagnostic laboratory with the capacity to support clinical trials or assay design on certain commercially available analytic platforms that may be used to develop additional diagnostic tests. Insight also performs Pharma Services in its CLIA-certified laboratory for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, including testing for biomarker discovery, assay design and development, clinical trial support, and a broad spectrum of biomarker tests (“Pharma Services”). The Insight Merger was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, which requires, among other things, that the assets and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. See Note 3 for a full discussion of the Insight Merger.
On April 15, 2021 (the “Chronix Merger Date”), Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Chronix Biomedical, Inc. (“Chronix”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated February 2, 2021, amended February 23, 2021, and amended and restated as of April 15, 2021 (as amended and restated, the “Chronix Merger Agreement”), by and among Oncocyte, CNI Monitor Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Oncocyte (“Merger Sub”), Chronix, the stockholders party to the Chronix Merger Agreement and a party named as equity holder representative. Pursuant to the Chronix Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Chronix, with Chronix surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte (the “Chronix Merger”). Prior to the Chronix Merger, Chronix was a privately held molecular diagnostics company, developing blood tests for use in cancer treatment and organ transplantation. Through the Chronix Merger, Oncocyte has added to its LDT development pipeline the TheraSure™-CNI Monitor, a patented, blood-based test for immunotherapy monitoring which Oncocyte expects to market as DetermaCNITM in the United States, and TheraSure™ Transplant Monitor, a blood-based solid organ transplantation monitoring test. See Note 3 for additional information about the Chronix Merger.
| 8 |
Other tests in the development pipeline include DetermaTx™, a test intended to complement DetermaIO™ by assessing the mutational status of a tumor to help identify the appropriate targeted therapy. Oncocyte also plans to initiate the development of DetermaMx™ as a blood-based test to monitor cancer patients for recurrence of their disease.

Presently, Oncocyte is devoting substantially all of its efforts on initial commercialization efforts for DetermaRx™, completing clinical development and planning commercialization of DetermaIO™, although DetermaIO™ is currently available for biopharma diagnostic development and research use only as a companion test in immunotherapy drug development to select patients for clinical trials; continuing development and planning commercialization of DetermaTxTM and the clinical launch of TheraSureTM Transplant Monitor. While Oncocyte plans to primarily market its LDTs in the United States through its own sales force, it is also beginning to make marketing arrangements with distributors in other countries. In order to reduce capital needs and to expedite the commercialization of any new LDTs that may become available for clinical use, Oncocyte may also pursue marketing arrangements with other diagnostic companies through which Oncocyte might receive licensing fees and royalty on sales, or through which it might form a joint venture to market its tests and share in net revenues, in the United States or abroad.
In addition to general economic and capital market trends and conditions, Oncocyte’s ability to raise sufficient additional capital to finance its operations from time to time will depend on a number of factors specific to Oncocyte’s operations such as operating revenues and expenses, progress in development of, or in obtaining reimbursement coverage from Medicare for DetermaIO™ and other future LDTs that Oncocyte may develop or acquire.
| 9 |
The availability of financing and Oncocyte’s ability to generate revenues from operating activities may be adversely impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which could continue to cause deferrals of cancer surgeries that might otherwise have resulted in the utilization of DetermaRx™ and deferrals of drug development clinical trials that might have utilized Oncocyte’s Pharma Services. The COVID-19 pandemic also could continue to depress national and international economies and disrupt capital markets, supply chains, and aspects of Oncocyte’s operations. The extent to which the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will ultimately impact Oncocyte’s business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows is highly uncertain and difficult to predict because it will depend on many factors that are outside Oncocyte’s control.
The unavailability or inadequacy of financing or revenues to meet future capital needs could force Oncocyte to modify, curtail, delay, or suspend some or all aspects of planned operations. Sales of additional equity securities could result in the dilution of the interests of its shareholders. Oncocyte cannot assure that adequate financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all.
2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements presented herein, and discussed below, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In accordance with those rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in comprehensive consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in Oncocyte’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Principles of consolidation
On January 31, 2020, with the consummation of the Insight Merger, Insight became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Insight’s operations and results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3). On February 24, 2021, with the acquisition of the remaining equity interests in Razor, Razor became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Razor’s results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3). On April 15, 2021, with the acquisition of Chronix, Chronix became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Chronix’s operations and results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3).
The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of Oncocyte’s financial condition and results of operations. The condensed consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates estimates which are subject to significant judgment, including, but not limited to, valuation methods used, assumptions requiring the use of judgment to prepare financial projections, timing of potential commercialization of acquired in-process intangible assets, applicable discount rates, probabilities of the likelihood of multiple outcomes of certain events related to contingent consideration, comparable companies or transactions, determination of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed including those relating to contingent consideration, revenue recognition, assumptions related to going concern assessments, allocation of direct and indirect expenses, useful lives associated with long-lived intangible assets, key assumptions in operating and financing leases including incremental borrowing rates, loss contingencies, valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, and assumptions used to value debt and stock-based awards and other equity instruments. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.
| 10 |
Similarly, Oncocyte assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to, Oncocyte’s equity investments, the carrying value of goodwill, acquired in-process intangible assets and other long-lived assets. Those assessments as well as other estimates referenced above were made in the context of information reasonably available to Oncocyte.
Business combinations and fair value measurements
Oncocyte accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, which requires the purchase consideration transferred to be measured at fair value on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC 820 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and expands on required disclosures about fair value measurement. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
● Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
● Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
● Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
When a part of the purchase consideration consists of shares of Oncocyte common stock, Oncocyte calculates the purchase price attributable to those shares, a Level 1 security, by determining the fair value of those shares as of the acquisition date based on prices quoted on the principal national securities exchange on which the shares traded. Oncocyte recognizes estimated fair values of the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development, and liabilities assumed, including any contingent consideration, as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is recognized as any amount of the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in excess of the consideration transferred. ASC 805 precludes the recognition of an assembled workforce as an asset, effectively subsuming any assembled workforce value into goodwill.
In determining fair value, Oncocyte utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, and also considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. For the periods presented, Oncocyte has no financial assets or liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, except for cash and cash equivalents consisting of money market funds and marketable equity securities of Lineage and AgeX common stock held by Oncocyte described below. These assets are measured at fair value using the period-end quoted market prices as a Level 1 input. Oncocyte also has certain contingent consideration liabilities which are carried at fair value based on Level 3 inputs (see Note 3).
The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair values because of the short-term nature of these items.
The carrying amount of the loan payable to Silicon Valley Bank approximates fair value because the loan bears interest at a floating market rate (see Note 12).
| 11 |
Goodwill and intangible assets
In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) projects acquired in a business combination that are not complete as of the acquisition date are capitalized and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the related research and development efforts. Upon successful completion of the project, the capitalized amount is amortized over its estimated useful life. If a project is abandoned, all remaining capitalized amounts are written off immediately. Oncocyte considers various factors and risks for potential impairment of IPR&D assets, including the current legal and regulatory environment and the competitive landscape. Adverse clinical trial results, significant delays or inability to obtain local determination coverage (“LCD”) from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) for Medicare reimbursement for a diagnostic test, the inability to bring a diagnostic test to market and the introduction or advancement of competitors’ diagnostic tests could result in partial or full impairment of the related intangible assets. Consequently, the eventual realized value of the IPR&D project may vary from its fair value at the date of acquisition, and IPR&D impairment charges may occur in future periods. During the period between completion or abandonment, the IPR&D assets will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if Oncocyte becomes aware of any events occurring or changes in circumstances that would indicate a reduction in the fair value of the IPR&D projects below their respective carrying amounts (see Notes 3 and 4).
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net identifiable assets and liabilities. Goodwill, similar to IPR&D, is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually, or if circumstances indicate its value may no longer be recoverable. Qualitative factors considered in this assessment include industry and market conditions, overall financial performance, and other relevant events and factors affecting Oncocyte’s business. Based on the qualitative assessment, if it is determined that the fair value of goodwill is more likely than not to be less than its carrying amount, the fair value of a reporting unit will be calculated and compared with its carrying amount and an impairment charge will be recognized for the amount that the carrying value exceeds the fair value. Oncocyte continues to operate in one segment and considered to be the sole reporting unit and, therefore, goodwill is tested for impairment at the enterprise level.
Oncocyte
does not have intangible assets with indefinite useful lives other than goodwill and the acquired IPR&D discussed in Notes 3 and
4. As of March 31, 2022, there has been
Long-lived intangible assets
Long-lived
intangible assets, consisting primarily of acquired customer relationships, are stated at acquired cost, less accumulated
amortization. Amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of
Contingent consideration liabilities
Certain of Oncocyte’s asset and business acquisitions involve the potential for future payment of consideration to third-parties and former selling shareholders in amounts determined as a percentage of future net revenues generated, or upon attainment of revenue milestones, from Pharma Services or LDTs, as applicable, or annual minimum royalties to certain licensors, as provided in the applicable agreements. The fair value of such liabilities is determined using unobservable inputs. These inputs include the estimated amount and timing of projected cash flows and the risk-adjusted discount rate used to present value the cash flows (see Notes 3 and 4). These obligations are referred to as contingent consideration.
ASC 805 requires that contingent consideration be estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the selling shareholders based on a percentage of certain revenues generated.
The fair value of contingent consideration after the acquisition date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Changes in key assumptions can materially affect the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and, accordingly, the resulting gain or loss that Oncocyte records in its condensed consolidated interim financial statements. See Notes 3 and 4 for a full discussion of these liabilities.

Investments in capital stock of privately held companies
Oncocyte evaluates whether investments held in common stock of other companies require consolidation of the company under, first, the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model, and then under the voting interest model in accordance with accounting guidance for consolidations under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10. If consolidation of the entity is not required under either the VIE model or the voting interest model, Oncocyte determines whether the equity method of accounting should be applied in accordance with ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. The equity method applies to investments in common stock or in-substance common stock if Oncocyte exercises significant influence over, but does not control, the entity, where significant influence is typically represented by ownership of 20% or more, but less than majority ownership, of the voting interests of a company.
Oncocyte initially records equity method investments at fair value on the date of the acquisition with subsequent adjustments to the investment balance based on Oncocyte’s pro rata share of earnings or losses from the investment.
Since February 24, 2021, the date of Oncocyte’s acquisition of the remaining interests in Razor, the Razor entity’s financial statements have been consolidated with Oncocyte (see Notes 3 and 4).
Impairment of long-lived assets
Oncocyte assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that such assets might be impaired and the carrying value may not be recoverable. Oncocyte’s long-lived assets consist primarily of intangible assets, right-of-use assets for operating leases, customer relationships, and machinery and equipment. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and the expected undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value, is recorded. As of March 31, 2022, there has been no impairment of long-lived assets.
Revenue recognition
Effective on January 1, 2020, Oncocyte adopted the revenue recognition standard ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC) 606. Pursuant to ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of services performed is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration Oncocyte expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. ASC 606 provides for a five-step model that includes:
(i) identifying the contract with a customer,
(ii) identifying the performance obligations in the contract,
(iii) determining the transaction price,
(iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and
(v) recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Oncocyte determines transaction prices based on the amount of consideration we expect to receive for transferring the promised goods or services in the contract. Consideration may be fixed, variable, or a combination of both. We consider any constraints on the variable consideration and include in the transaction price variable consideration to the extent it is deemed probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
| 13 |
DetermaRx™ testing revenue
Oncocyte generates revenue from performing DetermaRx™ tests on clinical samples through orders received from physicians, hospitals, and other healthcare providers. In determining whether all the revenue recognition criteria (i) through (v) above are met with respect to DetermaRx™ tests, each test result is considered a single performance obligation and is generally considered complete when the test result is delivered or made available to the prescribing physician electronically, and, as such, there are no shipping or handling fees incurred by Oncocyte or billed to customers. Although Oncocyte bills a list price for all tests ordered and completed for all payer types, Oncocyte considers constraints on the variable consideration when recognizing revenue for DetermaRx™. Because DetermaRx™ is a novel test and there are no current reimbursement arrangements with third-party payers other than Medicare, the transaction price represents variable consideration. Application of the constraint for variable consideration is an area that requires significant judgment. For all payers other than Medicare, Oncocyte must consider the novelty of the test, the uncertainty of receiving payment, or being subject to claims for a refund, from payers with whom it does not have a sufficient payment collection history or contractual reimbursement agreements. Accordingly, for those payers, Oncocyte expects to continue to recognize revenue upon payment until it has a sufficient history to reliably estimate payment patterns or has contractual reimbursement arrangements, or both, in place. In September 2020, Oncocyte received a final pricing decision for DetermaRx™ from CMS, and with Medicare coverage in effect, Oncocyte commenced recognizing revenue when DetermaRx™ tests are performed for Medicare patients, or when payment was approved by Medicare in the case of certain tests performed prior to September 2020.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, after accumulating additional history of cash receipts and other factors considered by management for Medicare Advantage covered tests, including the recently published Medicare rate which management believes entitles Oncocyte to get reimbursed for Medicare Advantage covered tests at the Medicare rate, Oncocyte commenced recognizing Medicare Advantage covered tests on an accrual basis, upon considering no further constraints on the variable consideration, at the Medicare rate.
As
of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had accounts receivable of $
Pharma services revenue
Revenues recognized include Pharma Services performed by Oncocyte’s Insight and Chronix subsidiaries for its pharmaceutical customers, including testing for biomarker discovery, assay design and development, clinical trial support, and a broad spectrum of biomarker tests. These Pharma Services are generally performed under individual scope of work (“SOW”) arrangements or license agreements (together with SOW the “Pharma Services Agreements”) with specific deliverables defined by the customer. Pharma Services are performed on a (i) time and materials basis or (ii) per test completed basis. Upon completion of the service to the customer in accordance with a Pharma Services Agreement, Oncocyte has the right to bill the customer for the agreed upon price (either on a per test or per deliverable basis) and recognizes Pharma Service revenue at that time. Insight identifies each sale of its Pharma Service offering as a single performance obligation. Chronix identifies the processing of test samples as a separate performance obligation (considered a series) within license agreements with customers.
Completion of the service and satisfaction of the performance obligation is typically evidenced by access to the report or test made available to the customer or any other form or applicable manner of delivery defined in the Pharma Services Agreements. However, for certain SOWs under which work is performed pursuant to the customer’s highly customized specifications, Oncocyte has the enforceable right to bill the customer for work completed, rather than upon completion of the SOW. For those SOWs, Oncocyte recognizes revenue over a period during which the work is performed using a formula that accounts for expended efforts, generally measured in labor hours, as a percentage of total estimated efforts for the completion of the SOW. As performance obligations are satisfied under the Pharma Services Agreements, any amounts earned as revenue and billed to the customer are included in accounts receivable. Any revenues earned but not yet billed to the customer as of the date of Oncocyte’s consolidated financial statements are recorded as contract assets and are included in prepaids and other current assets as of the financial statement date. Amounts recorded in contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable in Oncocyte’s consolidated financial statements when the customer is invoiced according to the billing schedule in the contract.
| 14 |
Oncocyte establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the evaluation of the collectability of its Pharma Services accounts receivables after considering a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, significant events that may impair the customer’s ability to pay, such as a bankruptcy filing or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position, reasonable and supportable forecast that affect the collectability of the reported amount, and historical experience. If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables would be further adjusted. Oncocyte continuously monitors collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses and uncollectible accounts, if any, based upon its historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. Amounts determined to be uncollectible are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte has not recorded any losses or allowance for doubtful accounts on its account receivables from Pharma Services.
As
of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had accounts receivable from Pharma Services customers of $
Licensing revenue
Revenues recognized includes licensing revenue derived from agreements with customers for exclusive rights to market Oncocyte’s proprietary testing technology. Under the agreements, Oncocyte grants exclusive rights to certain trademarks and technology of Oncocyte for the purpose of marketing Oncocyte’s tests within a defined geographic territory. A license agreement may specify milestone deliverables or performance obligations, for which Oncocyte recognizes revenue when its licensee confirms the completion of Oncocyte’s performance obligation. A licensing agreement may also include ongoing sales support from Oncocyte and typically includes non-refundable licensing fees and per-test Pharma Services revenues discussed above, for which Oncocyte treats the licensing of the technology, trademarks, and ongoing support as a single performance obligation satisfied by the passage of time over the term of the agreement.
Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues generally consists of cost of materials, direct labor including benefits, bonus and stock-based compensation, equipment and infrastructure expenses, clinical sample related costs associated with performing DetermaRx™ tests and Pharma Services, providing deliverables according to our licensing agreements, license fees due to third parties, and amortization of acquired intangible assets such as the Razor asset and customer relationship intangible assets. Infrastructure expenses include depreciation of laboratory equipment, allocated rent costs, leasehold improvements, and allocated information technology costs for operations at Oncocyte’s CLIA laboratories in California and Tennessee. Costs associated with generating the revenues are recorded as the tests or services are performed regardless of whether revenue was recognized. Royalties or revenue share payments for licensed technology calculated as a percentage of revenues generated using the associated technology are recorded as expenses at the time the related revenues are recognized.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses are comprised of costs incurred to develop technology, which include salaries and benefits (including stock-based compensation), laboratory expenses (including reagents and supplies used in research and development laboratory work), infrastructure expenses (including allocated facility occupancy costs), and contract services and other outside costs. Indirect research and development expenses are allocated primarily based on headcount, as applicable, and include rent and utilities, common area maintenance, telecommunications, property taxes, and insurance. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Sales and marketing expenses
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs and related benefits, including stock-based compensation, trade show expenses, branding and positioning expenses, and consulting fees. Sales and marketing expenses also include indirect expenses for applicable overhead allocated based on headcount, and include allocated costs for rent and utilities, common area maintenance, telecommunications, property taxes, and insurance.
| 15 |
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits (including stock-based compensation) for executive and corporate personnel, professional and consulting fees, rent and utilities, common area maintenance, telecommunications, property taxes, and insurance.
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive.
All common stock equivalents are antidilutive because Oncocyte reported a net loss for all periods presented. Accordingly, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share of common stock for the periods presented (in thousands):

Leases
Oncocyte accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. Oncocyte determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases are classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Under the available practical expedients for the adoption of ASC 842, Oncocyte accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Oncocyte recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than twelve months in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, Oncocyte uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Oncocyte uses the implicit rate when it is readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that Oncocyte will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating leases are included as right-of-use assets in machinery and equipment, and ROU lease liabilities, current and long-term, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Financing leases are included in machinery and equipment, and in financing lease liabilities, current and long-term, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Oncocyte discloses the amortization of our ROU assets and operating lease payments as a net amount, “Amortization of right-of-use assets and liabilities”, on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Based on the available practical expedients under the standard, Oncocyte elected not to capitalize leases that have terms of twelve months or less.
During 2020 and 2021, Oncocyte entered into various operating leases and an embedded operating lease in accordance with ASC 842 discussed in Note 10. Oncocyte’s accounting for financing leases remained substantially unchanged.

Oncocyte accounts for the shares of Lineage and AgeX common stock it holds as marketable equity securities in accordance with ASC 320-10-25, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, as amended by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01, Financial Instruments–Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, as the shares have a readily determinable fair value quoted on the NYSE American and are held principally to meet future working capital purposes, as necessary. The securities are measured at fair value, with related gains and losses in the value of such securities recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in other income (expense), and are reported as current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the closing trading price of the security as of the date being presented.
As

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
The following accounting standards, which are not yet effective, are presently being evaluated by Oncocyte to determine the impact that it might have on its consolidated financial statements.
| 17 |
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-10, which amends the current approach to estimate credit losses on certain financial assets, including trade and other receivables. Generally, this amendment requires entities to establish a valuation allowance for the expected lifetime losses of these certain financial assets. Upon the initial recognition of such assets, which will be based on, among other things, historical information, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. Subsequent changes in the valuation allowance are recorded in current earnings and reversal of previous losses are permitted. Currently, U.S. GAAP requires entities to write down credit losses only when losses are probable and loss reversals are not permitted. The update will be effective for Oncocyte in the first quarter of 2023. Early adoption is permitted. Oncocyte is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, to provide specific guidance to eliminate diversity in practice on how to recognize and measure acquired contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts from customers in a business combination consistent with revenue contracts with customers not acquired in an acquisition. The amendments in this update provide that the acquirer should consider the terms of the acquired contracts, such as timing of payment, identify each performance obligation in the contracts, and allocate the total transaction price to each identified performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis as of contract inception (that is, the date the acquiree entered into the contracts) or contract modification to determine what should be recorded at the acquisition date. These amendments are effective for the Company beginning with fiscal year 2023. The impact of the adoption of the amendments in this update will depend on the magnitude of any customer contracts assumed in a business combination in 2023 and beyond.
COVID-19 impact and related risks
The ongoing global outbreak of COVID-19, and the various attempts throughout the world to contain it, have created significant volatility, uncertainty and disruption. In response to government directives and guidelines, health care advisories and employee and other concerns, Oncocyte has altered certain aspects of its operations. A number of Oncocyte’s employees have had to work remotely from home and those on site have had to follow Oncocyte’s social distance guidelines, which could impact their productivity. COVID-19 could also disrupt Oncocyte’s operations due to absenteeism by infected or ill members of management or other employees, or absenteeism by members of management and other employees who cannot effectively work remotely but who elect not to come to work due to the illness affecting others in Oncocyte’s office or laboratory facilities, or due to quarantines.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Oncocyte has not been able, and may continue to not be able, to maintain its preferred level of physician or customer outreach and marketing of its diagnostic testing and Pharma Services, which may have negatively impacted and may continue to negatively impact potential new customers’ interest in those tests and services. Because of COVID-19, travel, visits, and in-person meetings related to Oncocyte’s business have been severely curtailed or canceled and Oncocyte has instead used on-line or virtual meetings to meet with potential customers and others.
In addition to operational adjustments, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic have led to uncertainties related to Oncocyte’s business growth and ability to forecast the demand for its LDTs and Pharma Services and resulting revenues. Concerns over available hospital, staffing, equipment, and other resources, and the risk of exposure to the virus, have led to delays in early-stage lung cancer surgeries and clinical trials of drugs under development by pharma companies, and the continued deferral of lung cancer surgeries and drug development clinical trials due to resurgence in COVID-19 cases could continue to result in delayed or reduced use of DetermaRx™ and Oncocyte’s Pharma Services.
| 18 |
It is possible that impacts of COVID-19 on Oncocyte’s operations or revenues or its access to capital could prevent Oncocyte from complying, or could result in a material noncompliance, with one or more obligations or covenants under material agreements to which Oncocyte is a party, with the result that Oncocyte would be in material breach of the applicable obligation, covenant, or agreement. Any such material breach could cause Oncocyte to incur material financial liabilities or an acceleration of the date for paying a financial obligation to the other party to the applicable agreement, or could cause Oncocyte to lose material contractual rights, such as rights to use leased equipment or laboratory or office space, or rights to use licensed patents or other intellectual property, the use of which is material to Oncocyte’s business. Similarly, it is possible that impacts of COVID-19 on the business, operations, or financial condition of any third party with whom Oncocyte has a contractual relationship could cause the third party to be unable to perform its contractual obligations to Oncocyte, resulting in Oncocyte’s loss of the benefits of a contract that could be material to Oncocyte’s business.
The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it might impact Oncocytes’ business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that are not subject to accurate prediction and that are beyond Oncocyte’s control.
3. Business Combinations
Acquisition of Insight Genetics, Inc.
On January 31, 2020 (the “Insight Merger Date”), Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Insight pursuant to the Insight Merger Agreement.
Merger Consideration at Closing
Under
the terms of the Insight Merger Agreement, Oncocyte agreed to pay $
In March 2021, in accordance with the Insight Merger Agreement, the Cash Holdback was paid and the Stock Holdback was released from escrow to the selling shareholders.
Milestone Payments (Milestone Contingent Consideration)
In
addition to the Initial Merger Consideration, Oncocyte may also pay contingent consideration of up to $
Revenue Share (Royalty Contingent Consideration)
As additional consideration for Insight’s shareholders, the Insight Merger Agreement provides for Oncocyte to pay a revenue share of not more than ten percent of net collected revenues for current Insight pharma service offerings over a period of ten years, and a tiered revenue share percentage of net collected revenues through the end of the technology lifecycle if certain new cancer tests are developed and commercialized using Insight technology (“Royalty Contingent Consideration”). As of March 31, 2022, the royalty contingent consideration has not been met and no payments have been made.
| 19 |
Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Insight Merger Agreement, Oncocyte filed a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the shares of common stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) issued in connection with the Insight Merger, which the SEC declared effective in August 2020.
Workforce
In connection with the closing of the Insight Merger, Oncocyte did not assume sponsorship of the Insight Equity Incentive Plan. Accordingly, the Insight Equity Incentive Plan and all related stock options to purchase shares of Insight common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Insight Merger were canceled on the Insight Merger Date for no consideration. At the Insight Merger Date, all of Insight’s employees ceased employment with Insight, and Oncocyte offered employment to certain of those former Insight employees, principally in laboratory roles and certain administrative roles (“New Oncocyte Employees”), and granted new equity awards to the New Oncocyte Employees under the Oncocyte 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. All Oncocyte stock option awards granted to the New Oncocyte Employees have vesting terms and conditions consistent with stock options granted to most other Oncocyte employees.
Aggregate Merger Consideration and Purchase Price Allocation
The calculation of the aggregate merger consideration, consisting of the Initial Merger Consideration, Milestone Contingent Consideration and Royalty Contingent Consideration (the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”) transferred on January 31, 2020, at fair value, is shown in the following table (in thousands, except for share and per share amounts).

Aggregate Merger Consideration allocation
Oncocyte allocated the Aggregate Merger Consideration transferred to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the Insight Merger Date. The fair values of the identifiable intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed was determined based on inputs that were unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, which is also based on estimates and assumptions made by management at the time of the Insight Merger. As such, this was classified as Level 3 fair value hierarchy measurements and disclosures in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement.
The following table sets forth the allocation of the Aggregate Merger Consideration transferred to Insight’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the Insight Merger Date, with the excess recorded as goodwill (in thousands):

The following is a discussion of the valuation methods and significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of Insight’s material assets and liabilities in connection with the Insight Merger:
| 21 |
Acquired
In-Process Research and Development and Deferred Income Tax Liability – The fair value of identifiable IPR&D intangible
assets consists of $
Oncocyte determined the estimated aggregate fair value of DetermaIO™ using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method (“MPEEM”) under the income approach. MPEEM calculates the economic benefits by determining the income attributable to an intangible asset after the returns are subtracted for contributory assets such as working capital, assembled workforce, and fixed assets. The resulting after-tax net earnings are discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk inherent in the economic benefit projections of the assets.
To
calculate fair value of DetermaIO™ under MPEEM, Oncocyte used probability-weighted, projected cash flows discounted at a rate considered
appropriate given the significant inherent risks associated with similar assets. Cash flows were calculated based on projections of revenues
and expenses related to the asset and were assumed to extend through a multi-year projection period. Revenues from commercialization
of DetermaIO™ were based on the estimated market potential for the indications for use which may include tests for the treatment
of certain lung cancers and tests for the treatment of certain breast cancers. The expected cash flows from DetermaIO™ were then
discounted to present value using a weighted-average cost of capital for companies with profiles substantially similar to that of Oncocyte
and the risk inherent in the economic benefit projections of similar assets, which Oncocyte believes represents the rate that market
participants would use to value those assets. The discount rate used to value DetermaIO™ was approximately
Because
the IPR&D (prior to completion or abandonment of the research and development) is considered an indefinite-lived asset for accounting
purposes but is not recognized for tax purposes, the fair value of the IPR&D on the acquisition date generated a deferred income
tax liability (“DTL”) in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. This DTL is computed using the fair value of the IPR&D
assets on the acquisition date multiplied by Oncocyte’s federal and state effective income tax rates. While this DTL would reverse
on impairment or sale or commencement of amortization of the related intangible assets, ASC 740 allows Oncocyte to treat acquired available
deferred tax assets (“DTAs”), such as Insight’s net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) (subject to the
annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code) as available DTAs to offset against the DTLs, as the DTLs are expected
to reverse within the NOL carryforward period. Any excess DTAs over those DTLs would be assessed for a valuation allowance in accordance
with ASC 740. This accounting treatment is acceptable if, at the time of the acquisition, Oncocyte can both reasonably estimate a timeline
to commercialization and the economic useful life of the IPR&D assets upon commercialization, which will be amortized during the
carryforward period of the offsetting DTAs. On the Insight Merger Date, Oncocyte estimated and recorded a net DTL of $
Customer
relationships – Insight provided a range of Pharma Services to its pharmaceutical customers. None of the Pharma Services are
related to DetermaIO™. The Pharma Service customer relationships are considered separate long-lived intangible assets under ASC
805 and were valued primarily using the MPEEM discussed above, and will be amortized over their useful life, estimated to be
Customer relationships generate similar DTLs to IPR&D as Oncocyte records this asset for accounting purposes but not for tax purposes. Accordingly, Oncocyte has offset all the acquired DTLs associated with the customer relationships with available acquired NOLs and included in the amount recorded discussed above (see Note 8).
| 22 |
Right-of-use
assets and liabilities, machinery and equipment – Insight is a lessee under an operating lease with a third-party lessor for
its facilities, including its laboratory, in Nashville, Tennessee (the “Nashville Lease”). In April 2019, the Nashville lease
was renewed by Insight for a five-year term and is classified as an operating lease under ASC 842. In accordance with ASC 805, when a
company acquired in a business combination is a lessee, the acquirer initially measures the lease liability and the right-of-use asset
for an acquired operating lease as if the lease is new at the acquisition date. In other words, the lease liability is measured at the
present value of the remaining lease payments as of the acquisition date and the right-of-use asset is generally measured at an amount
equal to the lease liability, adjusted for favorable or unfavorable terms of the lease when compared with market terms. Since the Nashville
Lease was renewed by Insight in proximity to the Insight Merger Date, the terms of the Nashville Lease were considered by Oncocyte to
be market terms at the Insight Merger Date. Accordingly, Oncocyte measured the net present value of the remaining contractual Nashville
Lease payments as of the Insight Merger Date using an incremental borrowing rate consistent with Oncocyte’s other operating leases
and recorded a right-of-use liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset of $
Contingent consideration liabilities – ASC 805 requires that contingent consideration be estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the selling shareholders based on a percentage of revenues generated from DetermaIO™ and Insight Pharma Services over their respective useful life. Accordingly, Oncocyte determined there are two types of contingent consideration in connection with the Insight Merger, the Milestone Contingent Consideration and the Royalty Contingent Consideration discussed below, which are collectively referred to as the “Contingent Consideration”.
There are three milestones comprising the Milestone Contingent Consideration, collectively referred to as the Milestones, in connection with the Insight Merger which Oncocyte valued and recorded as part of Contingent Consideration as of the Insight Merger Date (see table below), which consist of (i) a payment for clinical trial completion and related data publication (“Milestone 1”), (ii) a payment for an affirmative final local coverage determination from CMS for a specified lung cancer test (“Milestone 2”), and (iii) a payment for achieving specified CMS reimbursement milestones (“Milestone 3”). If achieved, any respective Milestone will be paid at the contractual value shown below, with the payment made either in cash or in shares of Oncocyte common stock as determined by Oncocyte. There can be no assurance that any of the Milestones will be achieved.
There are two separate components of the Royalty Contingent Consideration, collectively referred to as the Royalty Payments, in connection with the Insight Merger which Oncocyte valued and recorded as part of Contingent Consideration as of the Insight Merger Date (see table below); Royalty Payments consist of (i) revenue share payments based on a percentage of future sales generated from DetermaIO™ (“Royalty 1”), and (ii) revenue share payments based on percentage of future sales generated from current Insight Pharma Service offerings, as defined in the Insight Merger Agreement (“Royalty 2”). There can be no assurance that any revenues on which the Royalty Payments are based will be generated from DetermaIO™ or Pharma Service offerings.
The following table shows the Insight Merger Date contractual payment amounts, as applicable, and the corresponding fair value of each respective Contingent Consideration liability (in thousands):
| Fair | ||||||||

The
fair value of the Milestone Contingent Consideration was determined using a scenario analysis valuation method which incorporates Oncocyte’s
assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achievement of the Milestones, credit risk, timing of the Milestone Contingent Consideration
payments and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected payments. The discount rate was estimated at
approximately
The
fair value of the Royalty Contingent Consideration was determined using a single scenario analysis method to value the Royalty Payments.
The single scenario method incorporates Oncocyte’s assumptions with respect to specified future revenues generated from DetermaIO™
and current Insight Pharma Services over their respective useful lives, credit risk, and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the
present value of the expected royalty payments. The credit and risk-adjusted discount rate was estimated at approximately
The
fair value of the Contingent Consideration after the Insight Merger Date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions

Sublicense Agreement
Under the Sublicense Agreement, Razor granted to Oncocyte an exclusive worldwide sublicense under certain patent rights applicable to DetermaRx™ in the field of use covered by the applicable license held by Razor for purposes of commercialization and development of DetermaRx™.
Pursuant to the Razor Sublicense Agreement, Oncocyte will pay all royalties and all revenue sharing and earnout payments owed by Razor to certain third parties with respect to DetermaRx™ revenues, including the licensor of the patent rights sublicensed to Oncocyte, but those payments will be deducted from gross revenues to determine net revenues for the purpose of paying royalties to the former Razor shareholders. Total royalty and earnout payments to the former Razor shareholders, the licensor, and other third parties will be a low double-digit percentage, and in addition certain milestone payments may become due if cumulative net revenue benchmarks are reached. Royalties and earnout payments will be payable on a quarterly basis. This payment obligation will continue after Oncocyte’s purchase of the Razor common stock from Encore and the Minority Shareholders.

Accounting for the Razor Investment
Beginning on the Initial Closing and through February 23, 2021, Oncocyte has accounted for the Razor investment under the equity method of accounting under ASC 323 because prior to the Additional Purchase Payment discussed above Oncocyte exercised significant influence over, but did not control, the Razor entity. Oncocyte did not control Razor because, among other factors, Oncocyte was entitled to designate one person to serve on a three-member board of directors of Razor, with the other two members designated by Encore. Also, any deadlocked decisions by a Steering Committee of Oncocyte and Encore representatives that makes decisions with respect to the Clinical Trial, other than with respect to the Clinical Trial budget, will be resolved by a member designated by Encore.
Prior
to February 24, 2021, the aggregate Razor acquisition payments of $
| 26 |
The Initial Closing equity method investment in Razor and the Additional Purchase Payment for the remaining interests in Razor are both considered an asset acquisition, rather than a business combination, because, among other factors, Razor had no workforce, no commercial product (Razor had granted all commercial rights to Oncocyte), no revenues, no distribution system and no facilities. Substantially all of the fair value of Razor’s assets at the Initial Closing and on February 24, 2021 was concentrated in Razor’s intangible asset, the DetermaRx™ patent and related know-how, thus satisfying the requirements of the practical screen test to be considered an asset acquisition in accordance with ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. Accordingly, no goodwill may be recognized in an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805-50.
As Razor became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte on February 24, 2021, the DTA associated with the previous equity method investment was reversed. There is no tax effect of this reversal as the DTA had been fully offset by a valuation allowance (see Note 8). However, upon payment of the Additional Purchase Payment, Oncocyte recorded an additional step-up to fair value for the Razor intangible asset under ASC 805-50 for financial reporting purposes but this “step-up” is not recognized for income tax purposes. As a result, the fair value adjustment of the Razor intangible asset on the acquisition date generated a DTL in accordance with ASC 740. This DTL is computed using the fair value of the intangible assets on the acquisition date multiplied by Oncocyte’s federal and state effective income tax rates, using the simultaneous equations method for asset acquisitions under the guidance provided in ASC 740-10-25-51, which requires that the DTL be recognized as part of the investment of the acquired asset instead of any immediate income tax expense or benefit arising from the recognition of the DTL. Furthermore, ASC 740 allows Oncocyte to treat acquired available deferred tax assets, such as Razor’s NOLs (subject to the annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code) as available DTAs to offset against the DTLs, as the DTLs are expected to reverse within the NOL carryforward period. Any excess DTAs over those DTLs would be assessed for a valuation allowance in accordance with ASC 740.
On
February 24, 2021, Oncocyte estimated and recorded a net DTL of $
On February 24, 2021, upon Oncocyte’s acquisition of the outstanding common stock of Razor, the Razor intangible asset balance recorded on the acquisition date and included in Intangible Assets was as follows (in thousands):

Deferred
Revenue - In June 2018 and subsequently amended in June 2019, Chronix and a medical diagnostic service company in Germany (“the
German customer”) entered into a licensing and testing service agreement (“the German agreement”) for intellectual
property related to TheraSure™-CNI Monitor and TheraSure™ Transplant Monitor. Under the terms of the agreement, Chronix received
from the German customer an upfront payment of €
Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Chronix Merger Agreement, Oncocyte filed a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the shares of common stock under the Securities Act issued in connection with the Chronix Merger, which the SEC declared effective in July 2021.
Workforce
At the Chronix Merger Date, all of Chronix’s employees ceased employment with Chronix, and Oncocyte offered employment to certain of those former Chronix employees, principally in laboratory roles and certain administrative roles in Germany, and granted new equity awards to them under the Oncocyte 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. All these Oncocyte stock option awards granted have vesting terms and conditions consistent with stock options granted to most other Oncocyte employees.
Aggregate Chronix Merger Consideration and Purchase Price Allocation
Measurement period adjustments reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Final determination of the fair values may result in further adjustments to the values presented. To the extent that significant changes occur in the future, Oncocyte will disclose such changes in the reporting period in which they occur.
The calculation of the aggregate merger consideration, consisting of the Closing Consideration and Chronix Contingent Consideration (the “Aggregate Chronix Merger Consideration”), at fair value, is shown in the following table (in thousands, except for share and per share amounts). In accordance with ASC 805, the Chronix Contingent Consideration, at fair value, is part of the total considered transferred on the Chronix Merger Date, as further discussed below.

Pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), Oncocyte accounted for the Chronix acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Identifiable assets and liabilities of Chronix, including identifiable intangible assets, were recorded based on their fair values as of the date of the closing of the acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill.
Upon further review of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, it was determined that the amount previously reported as assumed liabilities were not properly reflected. The following has been updated to reflect the assets acquired and liabilities as of the date of acquisition. The following table sets forth the allocation of the Aggregate Chronix Merger Consideration transferred to Chronix’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):
| April 15, 2021 | ||||
| Assets acquired: | ||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | |||
| Accounts receivable and other current assets | ||||
| Long-term assets | ||||
| Acquired in-process research and development | ||||
| Total identifiable assets acquired (a) | ||||
| Liabilities assumed: | ||||
| Deferred revenue | ||||
| Assumed liability | ||||
| Long-term deferred income tax liability | ||||
| Total identifiable liabilities assumed (b) | ||||
| Net assets acquired, excluding goodwill (a) - (b) = (c) | ||||
| Total cash, contingent consideration, and stock consideration transferred (d) | ||||
| Goodwill (d) - (c) | $ | |||
All tangible assets and liabilities were valued at their respective carrying amounts as management believes that these amounts approximated their acquisition date fair values.
The following is a discussion of the valuation methods and significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of Chronix’s material assets and liabilities in connection with the Chronix Merger:
Acquired
In-Process Research and Development and Deferred Income Tax Liability – The fair value of identifiable IPR&D intangible
assets consists of $
| 30 |
To
calculate fair value of the TheraSure™ test assets under MPEEM, Oncocyte used probability-weighted, projected cash flows discounted
at a rate considered appropriate given the significant inherent risks associated with similar assets. Cash flows were calculated based
on projections of revenues and expenses related to the asset and were assumed to extend through a multi-year projection period. The discount
rate used to value TheraSure™ test assets was approximately
Because
the IPR&D is considered an indefinite-lived asset for accounting purposes but is not recognized for tax purposes, the fair value
of the IPR&D on the acquisition date generated a DTL in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. This DTL is computed using the fair
value of the IPR&D assets on the acquisition date multiplied by Oncocyte’s federal and state effective income tax rates. ASC
740 allows Oncocyte to treat acquired available DTAs, such as Chronix’s NOLs (subject to the annual limitation under Section 382
of the Internal Revenue Code) as available DTAs to offset against the DTLs, as the DTLs are expected to reverse within the NOL carryforward
period. Any excess DTAs over those DTLs would be assessed for a valuation allowance in accordance with ASC 740. This accounting treatment
is acceptable if, at the time of the acquisition, Oncocyte can both reasonably estimate a timeline to commercialization and the economic
useful life of the IPR&D assets upon commercialization, which will be amortized during the carryforward period of the offsetting
DTAs. Oncocyte estimated and recorded a net DTL of $
Contingent consideration liabilities – ASC 805 requires that contingent consideration be estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the former Chronix shareholders based on a percentage of revenues generated from TheraSure™ tests over the useful life of the assets. Accordingly, Oncocyte determined there are three types of contingent consideration in connection with the Chronix Merger: the Milestone Payments, the Royalty Payments, and Transplant Sale Payments, discussed below, which comprise the “Chronix Contingent Consideration”.
The
fair value of the Milestone Payments was determined using a scenario analysis valuation method which incorporates Oncocyte’s assumptions
with respect to the likelihood of achievement of the milestones defined in the Chronix Merger Agreement, credit risk, timing of the Milestone
Payments and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected payments. The discount rate was estimated at
approximately
The
fair value of the Royalty Payments was determined using a single scenario analysis method. The single scenario method incorporates Oncocyte’s
assumptions with respect to specified future revenues generated from TheraSure™-CNI Monitor, over its estimated useful life, taking
into account credit risk and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected Royalty Payments. The credit
and risk-adjusted discount rate was estimated at approximately
The
fair value of the Transplant Sale Payments was determined using a single scenario analysis method. The single scenario method incorporates
Oncocyte’s assumptions with respect to specified future licensing revenues generated from TheraSure™-Transplant Monitor,
over its estimated useful life, taking into account credit risk and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the
expected Transplant Sale Payments. The credit and risk-adjusted discount rate was estimated at approximately
The
fair value of the Chronix Contingent Consideration after the Chronix Merger Date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances
and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in Oncocyte’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
As of March 31, 2022, based on Oncocyte’s reassessment of the significant assumptions noted above, there was a decrease of approximately

Oncocyte has considered the guidance in ASC 815-40, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, which states that contracts that require or may require the issuer to settle the contract for cash are liabilities recorded at fair value, irrespective of the likelihood of the transaction occurring that triggers the net cash settlement feature. This liability classification guidance also applies to financial instruments that may require cash or other form of settlement for transactions outside of the company’s control and, in which the form of consideration to the warrant holder may not be the same as to all other shareholders in connection with the transaction. However, if a transaction is not within the company’s control but the holder of the financial instrument can solely receive the same type or form of consideration as is being offered to all the shareholders in the transaction, then equity classification of the financial instrument is not precluded, if all other applicable equity classification criteria are met. Based on the above guidance and, among other factors, the fact that the warrants cannot be cash settled under any circumstance but require share settlement, all of the outstanding warrants meet the equity classification criteria and have been classified as equity.
| 33 |
Oncocyte had a 2010 Stock Option Plan (the “2010 Plan”) under which shares of common stock were authorized for the grant of stock options or the sale of restricted stock. On August 27, 2018, Oncocyte shareholders approved a new Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Incentive Plan”) to replace the 2010 Plan. In adopting the 2018 Incentive Plan, Oncocyte terminated the 2010 Plan and will not grant any additional stock options or sell any stock under restricted stock purchase agreements under the 2010 Plan; however, stock options issued under the 2010 Plan will continue in effect in accordance with their terms and the terms of the 2010 Plan until the exercise or expiration of the individual options.
In 2018, under the 2010 Plan, Oncocyte granted certain stock options with exercise prices ranging from $per share to $per share, that will vest in increments upon the attainment of specified performance conditions related to the development of DetermaDx™ and obtaining Medicare reimbursement coverage for that test (“2018 Performance-Based Options”). The Medicare reimbursement conditions will not be met as Oncocyte has determined not to pursue commercialization of DetermaDx™. Approximately stock options granted in May 2018 contain a hybrid vesting condition which vest on the earlier to occur of three years of service from the grant date or achieving a defined Performance-Based Option milestone with respect to DetermaDx™ local decision coverage. These stock options are considered to be service-based awards for financial accounting purposes with the fair value of the options being recognized in stock-based compensation expense over an effective three-year service period. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, stock-based compensation expense was recorded with regard to the Performance-Based Options due to the discontinuation of the development of DetermaDx™. As of March 31, 2022, there were 2018 Performance-Based Options outstanding.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company awarded executive share-based payment awards under the 2018 Plan to certain executive officers and employees with time-based, market-based and performance-based vesting conditions (“2022 equity awards”).
The fair value of the 2022 equity awards with performance-based vesting condition was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model assuming that performance goals will be achieved. If such performance conditions are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any recognized compensation cost is reversed. The grant-date fair value of the stock options with time-based and performance-based vesting condition granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $per option. The probability of 2022 equity awards performance-based vesting conditions will be evaluated each reporting period and the Company will true-up the amount of cumulative cost recognized for the 2022 performance-based awards at each reporting period based on the most up-to-date probability estimates. The Company will recognize the compensation expense for 2022 performance-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the respective service period for each separately vesting tranche.
The fair value of the 2022 equity awards with market-based vesting condition was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions and estimates utilized in the model include the risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, expected stock volatility and the estimated period to achievement of the performance and market conditions, which are subject to the achievement of the market-based goals established by the Company and the continued employment of the participant. These awards vest only to the extent that the market-based conditions are satisfied as specified in the vesting conditions. Unlike the performance-based awards, the grant date fair value and associated compensation cost of the market-based awards reflect the probability of the market condition being achieved, and the Company will recognize this compensation cost regardless of the actual achievement of the market condition. Assumptions utilized in connection with the Monte Carlo valuation technique included: estimated risk-free interest rate of percent; term of years; expected volatility of percent; and expected dividend yield of percent. The risk-free interest rate was determined based on the yields available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues. The expected stock price volatility was determined using historical volatility. The expected dividend yield was based on expectations regarding dividend payments. The total grant date fair value of the market-based awards was $.

The determination of stock-based compensation is inherently uncertain and subjective and involves the application of valuation models and assumptions requiring the use of judgment. If Oncocyte had made different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense and net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 may have been significantly different.
Oncocyte does not recognize deferred income taxes for incentive stock option compensation expense and records a tax deduction only when a disqualified disposition has occurred.

8. Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate in accordance with ASC 740-270, Income Taxes, Interim Reporting. The effective tax rate may be subject to fluctuations during the year as new information is obtained, which may affect the assumptions used to estimate the annual effective tax rate, including factors such as valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, the recognition or de-recognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, if any, and changes in or the interpretation of tax laws in jurisdictions where Oncocyte conducts business.
In
connection with the Razor acquisition discussed in Note 3, a change in the acquirer’s valuation allowance that stems
from the purchase of assets should be recognized as an element of the acquirer’s income tax benefit in the period of the acquisition.
Accordingly, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, Oncocyte recorded a $
Oncocyte did not record any provision or benefit for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as Oncocyte had a full valuation allowance for the periods presented.
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Other than the partial releases discussed above, Oncocyte established a full valuation allowance for all periods presented due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from its net operating loss carry-forwards and other deferred tax assets.
In December 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or Tax Act, was signed into law. The Tax Act, among other things, contains significant changes to corporate taxation, including changes to the expensing of research and development expenses for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021. The changes will not have a material impact to the Company’s provision as the Company still expects to be in a taxable loss position.

10. Commitments and Contingencies
Oncocyte has certain commitments other than discussed in Note 3.
Office Lease Agreement
On
December 23, 2019, Oncocyte entered into an Office Lease Agreement (the “Irvine Lease”) of a building containing approximately
The Irvine Lease has an initial term of 89 calendar months (the “Term”), which commenced on June 1, 2020 (the “Commencement Date”). Oncocyte has an option to extend the Term for a period of five years (the “Extended Term”).
Oncocyte
will pay base monthly rent in the amount of $
If Oncocyte exercises its option to extend the Term, the initial base monthly rent during the Extended Term will be the greater of the base monthly rent in effect during the last year of the Term or the prevailing market rate. The prevailing market rate will be determined based on annual rental rates per square foot for comparable space in the area where the Premises are located. If Oncocyte does not agree with the prevailing market rate proposed by the lessor, the rate may be determined through an appraisal process. The base monthly rent during the Extended Term shall be subject to the same annual rent adjustment as applicable for base monthly rent during the Term.
In addition to base monthly rent, Oncocyte will pay in monthly installments (a) all costs and expenses, other than certain excluded expenses, incurred by the lessor in each calendar year in connection with operating, maintaining, repairing (including replacements if repairs are not feasible or would not be effective) and managing the Premises and the building in which the Premises are located (“Expenses”), and (b) all real estate taxes and assessments on the Premises and the building in which the Premises are located, all personal property taxes for property that is owned by lessor and used in connection with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Premises, and costs and fees incurred in connection with seeking reductions in such tax liabilities (“Taxes”). Subject to certain exceptions, Expenses shall not be increased by more than 4% annually on a cumulative, compounded basis.

Litigation – General
Oncocyte will be subject to various claims and contingencies in the ordinary course of its business, including those related to litigation, business transactions, employee-related matters, and other matters. When Oncocyte 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, Oncocyte will record a liability for the loss. If the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, Oncocyte discloses the claim if the likelihood of a potential loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved could be material.
Tax Filings
Oncocyte tax filings are subject to audit by taxing authorities in jurisdictions where it conducts business. These audits may result in assessments of additional taxes that are subsequently resolved with the authorities or potentially through the courts. Management believes Oncocyte has adequately provided for any ultimate amounts that are likely to result from these audits; however, final assessments, if any, could be significantly different than the amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Employment Contracts
Oncocyte
has entered into employment and severance benefit contracts with certain executive officers. Under the provisions of the contracts, Oncocyte
may be required to incur severance obligations for matters relating to changes in control, as defined, and certain terminations of executives.
As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte accrued approximately $
| 41 |
Indemnification
In the normal course of business, Oncocyte may provide indemnification of varying scope under Oncocyte’s agreements with other companies or consultants, typically Oncocyte’s clinical research organizations, investigators, clinical sites, suppliers and others. Pursuant to these agreements, Oncocyte will generally agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse the indemnified parties for losses and expenses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties arising from claims of third parties in connection with the use or testing of Oncocyte’s diagnostic tests. Indemnification provisions could also cover third party infringement claims with respect to patent rights, copyrights, or other intellectual property pertaining to Oncocyte’s diagnostic tests. Oncocyte’s office and laboratory facility leases also will generally contain indemnification obligations, including obligations for indemnification of the lessor for environmental law matters and injuries to persons or property of others, arising from Oncocyte’s use or occupancy of the leased property. The term of these indemnification agreements will generally continue in effect after the termination or expiration of the particular research, development, services, lease, or license agreement to which they relate. The Purchase Agreement also contains provisions under which Oncocyte has agreed to indemnify Razor and Encore from losses and expenses resulting from breaches or inaccuracy of Oncocyte’s representations and warranties and breaches or nonfulfillment of Oncocyte’s covenants, agreements, and obligations under the Purchase Agreement. Oncocyte periodically enters into underwriting and securities sales agreements with broker-dealers in connection with the offer and sale of Oncocyte securities. The terms of those underwriting and securities sales agreements include indemnification provisions pursuant to which Oncocyte agrees to indemnify the broker-dealers from certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act, in connection with the offer and sale of Oncocyte securities. The potential future payments Oncocyte could be required to make under these indemnification agreements will generally not be subject to any specified maximum amounts. Historically, Oncocyte has not been subject to any claims or demands for indemnification. Oncocyte also maintains various liability insurance policies that limit Oncocyte’s financial exposure. As a result, Oncocyte management believes that the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Accordingly, Oncocyte has not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

12. Loan Payable to Silicon Valley Bank
Amended Loan Agreement
On October 17, 2019, Oncocyte entered into a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amended Loan Agreement”) with the Bank pursuant to which Oncocyte obtained a new $ million secured credit facility (“Tranche 1”), a portion of which was used to repay the remaining balance of approximately $ on outstanding loans from the Bank, plus a final payment of $, under the February 21, 2017 Loan Agreement. The credit line under the Amended Loan Agreement may be increased by an additional $ million (“Tranche 2”) if Oncocyte obtains at least $ million of additional equity capital, as was the case with the original Loan Agreement, and a positive final coverage determination is received from CMS for DetermaRxTM at a specified minimum price point per test (the “Tranche 2 Milestone”), and Oncocyte is not in default under the Amended Loan Agreement. As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had satisfied the Tranche 2 Milestone and was eligible to borrow the $2 million Tranche 2 funds. However, Oncocyte has not yet borrowed any funds under Tranche 2.

The outstanding principal amount of the loan, with interest accrued, the final payment fee, and the prepayment fee may become due and payable prior to the applicable maturity date if an “Event of Default” as defined in the Amended Loan Agreement occurs. Oncocyte’s obligations under the Amended Loan Agreement are collateralized by substantially all its assets other than intellectual property such as patents and trade secrets that Oncocyte owns. Accordingly, if an Event of Default were to occur and not be cured, the Bank could foreclose on its security interest in the collateral. Oncocyte was in compliance with the Amended Loan Agreement as of the filing date of this Report.

13. Co-Development Agreement with Life Technologies Corporation
On January 13, 2022, Oncocyte entered into a Collaboration Agreement (the “LTC Agreement”) with Life Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of Thermo Fisher Scientific (“LTC” and together with Oncocyte, the “Parties” or individually, a “Party”), in order to partner in the development and collaborate in the commercialization of Thermo Fisher Scientific’s existing Oncomine Comprehensive Assay Plus (“OCA Plus”) and Oncocyte’s Determa IO assay for use with LTC’s Ion TorrentTM GenexusTM Integrated Sequencer and LTC’s Ion TorrentTM GenexusTM Purification System (“Genexus system”) in order to obtain in vitro diagnostic (“IVD”) regulatory approval.
Development
Under the terms of the LTC Agreement, Oncocyte will clinically validate LTC’s OCA Plus assay, which is LTC’s proprietary NGS-based assay designed to be run on the Genexus system as an IVD assay (the “Collaboration LTC Product”) and Oncocyte’s Determa IO assay, which is a multivariate gene expression test performed on FFPE biopsy specimens, as an IVD assay run on the Genexus system (the “Collaboration Determa Product”), paving the way toward regulatory approval for use in tumor profiling and guidance of therapy selection for solid tumor cancers in humans. LTC retains the exclusive right to partner with therapeutics companies to develop the Collaboration LTC Product as a companion diagnostic. Oncocyte retains the exclusive right to partner with therapeutics companies to develop the Collaboration Determa Product as a companion diagnostic. All development work will be conducted pursuant to development plans agreed by the Parties through a series of governance committees that will oversee the collaboration.
Costs Associated with Product Development
Oncocyte will be responsible for all costs associated with Oncocyte activities under the LTC product development budget. Oncocyte and LTC will share development costs associated with LTC activities under the LTC product development budget. LTC will be responsible for costs associated with the performance of research and development activities for the RUO-labeled OCA Plus and related components as is necessary to enable the development of the Collaboration LTC Product as contemplated by the LTC product development plan. Oncocyte will be responsible for all costs associated with activities of both Parties under the Determa product development budget. LTC will be responsible, at LTC’s own cost, for the performance of research and development activities for the RUO-labeled OCA Plus and related components as is necessary to enable the development of the Collaboration LTC Product as contemplated by the development plan for the Collaboration LTC Product.
Commercialization
LTC will be responsible for the commercialization of the Collaboration LTC Product throughout the world, but the Parties will co-market it in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, European Union, Switzerland, Australia, and New Zealand (the “LTC Product Territory”). Oncocyte will be responsible for the commercialization of the Collaboration Determa Product in the United States (the “Determa Product Territory”), and LTC will be responsible for commercializing it in the rest of the world. All commercialization activities for the Collaboration LTC Product and the Collaboration Determa Product will be conducted pursuant to commercialization plans agreed by the Parties through the collaboration’s governance committees.
| 44 |
Economic Terms
Under the LTC Agreement, LTC will pay Oncocyte a percentage of revenue received by LTC on sales of the Collaboration LTC Product throughout the world and on sales of the Collaboration Determa Product outside the United States. The revenue share percentage for the Collaboration LTC Product will vary based on the timing of the sale, the territory of the sale, and the degree to which consumables, reagents, and other products are included in the kit being sold, but the Company estimates that the average revenue share percentage that it will receive under the LTC Agreement will likely range from the low teens to the low twenties. The revenue share percentage LTC will pay to Oncocyte on sales of the Collaboration Determa Product will vary based on the timing of the sale, and the degree to which consumables, reagents, and other products are included in the kit being sold, but the Company estimates that the average revenue share that it will receive under the LTC Agreement will likely range in the low twenties. Oncocyte will pay LTC a mid single-digit percentage of its revenue on sales of the Collaboration Determa Product in the United States. Oncocyte will also receive up to two milestone payments in the low seven figures if LTC successfully commercializes the OCA Plus IVD assay as a companion diagnostic with certain claims.
Exclusivity
During the term of the LTC Agreement, (a) LTC will not enter into any agreement or arrangement with any third party with respect to the development or commercialization of OCA Plus on the Genexus system in the field of distributed IVD assay kits for the tumor profiling of and guidance of therapy selection for solid tumor cancers in humans (the “LTC Field”) in the LTC Product Territory, (b) Oncocyte will not partner with any third-party NGS equipment manufacturer with respect to the development and commercialization of a comprehensive genomic profiling assay on an instrument platform similar to or competitive with LTC’s NGS systems in the LTC Field in the LTC Product Territory, and (c) LTC will not develop, market or sell a new panel or other substantially similar comprehensive genomic profiling assay that would compete with the Collaboration LTC Product in the LTC Field in the LTC Product Territory on the Genexus system.
Manufacturing
LTC is responsible for the manufacture and supply of all OCA Plus assays and Collaboration LTC products, among other consumables and reagents required for the development of the Collaboration LTC Product. LTC will supply Oncocyte all consumables and reagents necessary for use in developing the Collaboration LTC Product pursuant to the LTC product development plan.
In addition, following the effective date of the LTC Agreement, the Parties will negotiate in good faith a supply agreement pursuant to which LTC will supply Oncocyte with the Collaboration Determa Products for commercialization in the United States. LTC will also supply Oncocyte with all Genexus instruments, consumables and reagents, necessary for use in developing Collaboration Determa Products pursuant to the Determa product development plan.
Term; Termination
Unless earlier terminated as described in the LTC Agreement, the LTC Agreement will remain in effect until December 31, 2035. The LTC Agreement may be (i) terminated for cause by either Party based on any uncured material breach or insolvency by the other Party, and (ii) terminated by either Party with respect to specific termination events occurring for either the Collaboration LTC products or the Collaboration Determa Products, including but not limited to, the failure to achieve certain milestones and failure to agree to initial development or commercialization plans for the Collaboration Determa Product. If LTC fails to meet its certain product development milestones, the term of the LTC Agreement shall be extended on a proportionate basis.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The matters addressed in this Item 2 that are not historical information constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements about any of the following: uncertainties associated with the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, including its possible effects on our operations, the demand for our diagnostic tests and other LDTs and Pharma Services, and our ability to raise capital to finance our operations; our ability to efficiently and flexibly manage our business amid uncertainties related to COVID-19; any projections of earnings, revenue, cash, effective tax rate, use of net operating losses, or any other financial items; the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations or prospects for achieving such plans, and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “seeks,” “estimates,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. While Oncocyte may elect to update forward-looking statements in the future, it specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, even if the Oncocyte estimates change and readers should not rely on those forward-looking statements as representing Oncocyte views as of any date subsequent to the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements are inherently subject to risks and Oncocyte can give no assurances that its expectations will prove to be correct. Actual results could differ materially from those described in this report because of numerous factors, many of which are beyond the control of Oncocyte. A number of important factors could cause the results of the company to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including those detailed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and our other reports filed with the SEC from time to time.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Oncocyte’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the related notes provided under “Item 1- Financial Statements” above.
Critical Accounting Policies
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses and analyzes data in our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. Actual conditions may differ from our assumptions and actual results may differ from our estimates.
An accounting policy is deemed critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably could have been used, or if changes in the estimate are reasonably likely to occur, that could materially impact the financial statements. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2022 to the matters that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, except as disclosed in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.
Results of Operations
The ongoing global outbreak of COVID-19, and the various attempts throughout the world to contain it, have created significant financial volatility, economic uncertainty, and changes to the way Oncocyte conducts certain aspects of its operations. The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and may continue to have, significant effects on our operations, ability to generate revenues, and financing activities. In response to government directives and guidelines, health care advisories and employee and other concerns, a number of our employees have had to work remotely from home and those on site have had to follow our social distance guidelines, which could impact their productivity. Although employee absenteeism due to COVID-19 illness has not had an adverse impact on our operations as of the date of this Report, we face the risk of losing, at least temporarily, the services of employees if they become ill.
| 48 |
The consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic have led to uncertainties related to our growth and our ability to forecast the demand for our diagnostic testing and Pharma Services and resulting revenues, as we have not had time to establish a base of customers, revenues or other relevant trends prior to the outbreak of COVID-19. We had no commercial revenues until the first quarter of 2020 when we launched our first commercial diagnostic test, DetermaRx™, and acquired the Pharma Services business of Insight. We had expected that initial DetermaRx™ revenues would be constrained by the lack of Medicare coverage. CMS Medicare reimbursement pricing approval for DetermaRx™ did not become effective until September 2020. Deferrals in lung cancer surgeries due to COVID-19 may have reduced demand for DetermaRx™, but because of the lack of historical DetermaRx™ revenues, with and without Medicare reimbursement, we are unable to determine the extent to which the deferral of those surgeries impacted our DetermaRx™ revenues. Resurgences in COVID-19 cases could cause additional deferrals of lung cancer surgeries during the course of the pandemic. The lack of in-person interaction with healthcare providers for our promotion of the use of DetermaRx™ has also placed a constraint on our ability to market that test, but we cannot determine the extent to which that has impacted our revenues due to the absence of historical revenues. Similarly, our Pharma Services revenues commenced with our acquisition of Insight during the first quarter of 2020, and because we do not have a prior history of Pharma Services revenues we cannot assess how COVID-19 may have impacted those revenues, although we are aware that certain planned clinical trials of new pharmaceuticals for which we had expected to provide Pharma Services were delayed due to the pandemic.
The pandemic is affecting our revenue-generating activities. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have not been, and may not be, able to maintain our preferred level of physician or customer outreach and marketing of our diagnostic testing and Pharma Services, which could negatively impact our potential new customers’ interest in our tests and services. Even if government and other COVID-19 related restrictions are relaxed and lung cancer surgeries are performed at or close to pre-pandemic levels, any growth and anticipated adoption of our diagnostic tests may not occur. Although we have not yet experienced COVID-19 related supply chain disruptions impacting our testing capacity, if the vendors of equipment and reagents used in our diagnostic laboratories experience supply, operational, or financial disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we could experience supply constraints in the future that could cause increased costs or delays in performing DetermaRx™ tests and Pharma Services and in continuing the development of new diagnostic tests.
The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses might impact our business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that we will not be able to accurately predict, including: the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic; the availability and cost to access COVID-19 tests, vaccines and therapies; the effect on our potential customers and their demand for our diagnostic testing and Pharma Services; the effect on our suppliers and their ability to provide the necessary equipment and materials to support our tests and services; disruptions or restrictions on our employees’ ability to work and travel; interruptions or restrictions related to the distribution of our tests in foreign markets, including impacts on logistics of shipping and receiving patient samples; and any stoppages, disruptions or increased costs associated with development, production and marketing of our diagnostic tests. In addition to the direct impacts to our business operations, the global economy is likely to continue to be significantly weakened as a result of actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and to the extent that such a weakened global economy impacts customers’ ability or willingness to purchase and pay for our tests, our business and results of operation could be negatively impacted. Due to the uncertain scope and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and uncertain timing of any recovery or normalization, we are currently unable to estimate the resulting impacts on our operations and financial results. We will continue to actively monitor the issues raised by the COVID-19 pandemic and may take further actions that alter our operations, as may be required by federal, state, local or foreign authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, our customers, and our shareholders.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021
Revenues increased by $0.3 million to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $1.1 million in the comparable prior year quarter, primarily due to increased revenues in DetermaRx™ tests, and new licensing revenue recognized.
Loss before income taxes was $10.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and $11.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Net change in loss before income taxes was comprised of the change in revenues described above and other changes in operating expenses and other income and expenses as follows:
● DetermaRx™ testing revenue increased by $0.4 million due to an increase in revenue from increased tests during the quarter, supplemented by an increase of $40,000 in new licensing related revenues. Pharma Services revenue decreased by $0.1 million due to a decreased number of contracts performed during the period.
● Cost of revenue and amortization of acquired intangibles increased by $0.9 million, from $1.0 million to $1.9 million, primarily due to increased labor and allocated overhead associated with performing our DetermaRx™ tests and Pharma Services, and with providing revenue deliverables under our license agreements, as well as increased noncash amortization of acquired intangible assets such as our Razor asset and customer relationship intangible assets acquired as part of the Insight merger.
● Research and development expenses increased $1.8 million to $5.1 million, primarily due to increased headcount and continued development of DetermaIO™, DetermaTx™, DetermaMx™ and TheraSureTM Transplant Monitor, increased expense in clinical trials to promote the commercialization of DetermaRx™, and the development of our planned DetermaCNI™.
● Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.0 million to $3.2 million primarily attributable to increase in headcount and continued ramp in sales and marketing activities related to the transplant business, as well as support the commercialization efforts within oncology.
● General and administrative expenses increased $0.9 million to $5.7 million, primarily due to increased headcount, consulting, and insurance expenses.
● Change in fair value of contingent considerations decreased by $5.7 million, from a loss of $1.1 million to a gain of $4.7 million, due to changes in discount rates and revised estimates on the timing of possible future payouts.
● Other expenses increased by $0.3 million, from $0.1 million to $0.4 million, primarily due to unrealized loss on marketable equity securities.

We recognize testing revenues for our services in accordance with the provisions of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers as further discussed in Note 2 of this Report. During the first quarter of 2020, we generated revenues for the first time since our company’s inception in 2009. We currently derive our revenues from the sale of our novel lung cancer stratification test, DetermaRx™, which we commercially launched in early 2020, and from Pharma Services generated by our wholly owned subsidiaries, Insight and Chronix, which we acquired on January 31, 2020 and April 15, 2021, respectively. From 2021, we also recognized revenue from our DetermaRx™ and TheraSure™ technology licensing. See Notes 2 and 3.
Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, we may not recognize revenues even if we have performed the diagnostic tests we have commercialized until we have contracts for reimbursement from third-party payers and a history of experience of cash collections for the tests we perform. Until we develop that experience or have the contracts in place with payers or there is Medicare or other insurance coverage for a test, we recognize revenue upon payment for the tests that we perform. In September 2020, we received a final pricing decision for our DetermaRx™ test from CMS and commenced recognizing revenue on an accrual basis when DetermaRx™ tests are performed for Medicare covered patients, or when payment was approved by Medicare in the case of certain tests performed prior to September 2020. As of March 31, 2021, we also commenced accruing Medicare Advantage covered tests at the CMS approved rate. All other payers for the DetermaRx™ test are currently recognized upon payment. For financial accounting purposes, regardless of when, or whether, revenues may be recognized, we incurred and accrued costs of revenues and other operating expenses discussed below related to any services we perform. Our ability to increase our testing revenue for DetermaRx™ will depend on our ability to penetrate the market and obtain coverage from additional third-party payers.
Pharma Services are generally performed on a time and materials basis. Upon our completion of the service to the customer in accordance with the contract, we have the right to bill the customer for the agreed upon price (either on a per test or per deliverable basis) and recognize the Pharma Services revenue at that time, on an accrual basis.
| 51 |
Licensing revenues are generally recognized upon transfer of promised technology information and other contractual performance obligations to licensees in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange. Licensing revenue is recognized at the point in time when the applicable performance obligations are satisfied and all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.
Pharma Services revenues are generated under discrete agreements for particular customer projects that generally expire with the completion or termination of the customer’s project. Accordingly, different customers may account for greater or lesser portions of Pharma Services during different accounting periods, and Pharma Services revenues may exhibit a larger variance from accounting period to accounting period than other revenues such as DetermaRx™ testing revenues.
Licensing revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily reflect the revenue recognition of $40,000 in relation to the Exclusive Sublicense Agreement in the PRC Territory (the “Sublicense Agreement”) with Burning Rock Biotech Limited (“Burning Rock”). Like Pharma Services revenues, licensing revenues may vary significantly between accounting periods reflecting the attainment of additional licensing agreement milestones that trigger license fees payable to Oncocyte, or reflecting the beginning or end of a revenue stream upon the commencement or termination of a license agreement related to a particular customer project.
The following table presents the percentage of consolidated revenues by products or services classes:
| Three Months Ended | ||||||||
| March 31, | ||||||||
| 2022 | 2021 | |||||||
| DetermaRx™ | 70 | % | 54 | % | ||||
| Pharma Services | 27 | % | 46 | % | ||||
| Licensing | 3 | % | 0 | % | ||||
| Total | 100 | % | 100 | % | ||||
Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues generally consists of cost of materials; direct labor including payroll, payroll taxes, bonus, benefit and stock-based compensation; equipment and infrastructure expenses; clinical sample costs associated with performing Pharma Services and the DetermaRx™ tests; license fees due to third parties, and amortization of acquired intangible assets. Infrastructure expenses include depreciation of laboratory equipment; allocated rent costs; leasehold improvements; and allocated information technology costs for operations at our CLIA laboratories in California and Tennessee. Costs associated with performing the tests are recorded as the tests are performed regardless of whether revenue was recognized with respect to that test. Royalties payable by Oncocyte for licensed technology, calculated as a percentage of revenues generated using the associated technology, are recorded as expenses at the time the related revenues are recognized.
We expect the cost of DetermaRx™ testing to generally increase in line with the increase in the number of tests we perform, even if we do not recognize corresponding revenues when Medicare, Medicare Advantage, or other insurance coverage is not available. We expect that our cost per test to decrease modestly over time due to the efficiencies we may gain if testing volume increases, and from automation and other cost reductions. There can be no assurance, however, that any of these efficiencies or cost savings will be achieved. Cost of revenues for Pharma Services and licensing revenue will vary depending on the nature, timing, and scope of customer projects.

We expect to continue to incur a significant amount of research and development expenses during the foreseeable future. Although we have terminated development work for our DetermaDx™ product line, we will continue development of DetermaIO™, DetermaTx™, DetermaMx™ and TheraSureTM Transplant Monitor; clinical trials to promote commercialization of DetermaRx™; and, with the recent completion of the Chronix merger, the development of our planned DetermaCNI™ test. Our future research and development efforts and expenses will also depend on the amount of capital that we are able to raise to finance those activities and whether we acquire rights to any new diagnostic tests. A portion of our costs for leasing and operating our CLIA laboratories in California and Tennessee, and in Germany with the recent completion of the Chronix Merger, will also be included in research and development expenses to the extent allocated to the development of our diagnostic tests.
The COVID-19 global pandemic has negatively impacted, and is expected to continue to negatively impact, patient recruitment for clinical trials necessary for us to promote the use of DetermaRx™ by physicians, and clinical trials of immunotherapies by pharma companies that may use DetermaIO™ in selecting patients for their trials. We believe that our planned DetermaRx™ clinical trials are critical to gaining physician adoption and driving favorable coverage decisions by private payers, and we expect our investment in the DetermaRx™ clinical trial to increase over time. We may also commence our own clinical trials of DetermaIO™ if we develop that diagnostic test to the point where we determine that its use as a clinical diagnostic appears to be feasible.

Sales and marketing expenses

| % of Net Revenue | 227 | % | 201 | % | 27 | % | ||||||||||
We expect to continue to incur a significant amount of sales and marketing expenses during the foreseeable future as we continue to market and sell DetermaRx™ and if we successfully complete product development and begin commercialization efforts for DetermaIO™ as a clinical test. Sales and marketing expenses will also increase if we successfully develop and begin commercializing DetermaCNI™, DetermaTx™, and DetermaMx™, or if we acquire and commercialize other diagnostic tests. Our commercialization efforts and expenses will also depend on the amount of capital that we are able to raise to finance commercialization of our tests. Our future expenditures on sales and marketing will also depend on the amount of revenue that those efforts are likely to generate. Because physicians are more likely to prescribe a test for their patients if the cost is covered by Medicare or health insurance, demand for our diagnostic and other tests and our expenditures on sales and marketing are likely to increase if our diagnostic or other tests qualify for reimbursement by Medicare or private health insurance companies.
General and administrative expenses

Change in fair value of contingent consideration
We will pay contingent consideration if various payment milestones are triggered under the merger agreements through which we acquired Insight and Chronix. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in this Report. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration will be based on our reassessment of the key assumptions underlying the determination of this liability as changes in circumstances and conditions occur from the Insight and Chronix acquisition dates to the reporting period being presented, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded as part of our consolidated loss from operations for that period. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $4.7 million related to the decrease in the fair value of contingent consideration primarily attributable to change in discount rates and a revised estimate of the timing of the possible future payouts.
Other income and expenses, net
Other income and expenses, net, is primarily comprised of interest income and interest expenses, net, and unrealized gains and losses on Lineage and AgeX marketable equity securities we hold. Interest income is earned from money market funds we hold for capital preservation. Interest expense was incurred under our loan payable to the Silicon Valley Bank, and under financing lease obligations. Interest expense, net, reflects the interest expense incurred on our loans and financing obligations in excess of interest income earned from money market accounts.
Income taxes
In connection with the Razor acquisition discussed in Note 3 to our condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this Report, a change in the acquirer’s valuation allowance that stems from the purchase of assets should be recognized as an element of the acquirer’s income tax benefit in the period of the acquisition. Accordingly, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a $7.6 million partial release of our valuation allowance and a corresponding income tax benefit stemming from the deferred tax liability generated by the Razor intangible assets we acquired.
Oncocyte did not record any provision or benefit for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as Oncocyte had a full valuation allowance for the periods presented.
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Other than the partial releases discussed above, we established a full valuation allowance for all periods presented due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from our net operating loss carry-forwards and other deferred tax assets.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We finance our operations primarily through the sale of our common stock. We have incurred operating losses and negative cash flows since inception and had an accumulated deficit of $198.1 million at March 31, 2022. We expect to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flows for the near future.
At March 31, 2022, we had $20.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, and held shares of Lineage and AgeX common stock as marketable equity securities valued at $0.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 we raised approximately $30,000 in net cash proceeds through sales of shares of our common stock through the ATM Offering. On April 19, 2022, Oncocyte received net proceeds of approximately $32.8 million from an underwritten offering of 26,266,417 shares of common stock, no par value per share of the Company, and 26,266,417 warrants to purchase up to 13,133,208.5 shares of Common Stock. See Notes 1 and 14 for additional information about the April 2022 Offering. We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents, and marketable equity securities are sufficient to finance our current operations through at least twelve months from the issuance date of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in this Report.
| 55 |
We expect that our operating expenses will increase as we build our marketing and sales force and add new equipment and personnel to our CLIA laboratories to commercialize DetermaRx™, followed by DetermaIO™ for clinical use and other diagnostic tests in our pipeline after development is completed, including TheraSureTM Transplant Monitor and DetermaCNI™ acquired through the Chronix Merger. Although we intend to market our diagnostic tests in the United States through our own sales force, we are also beginning to make marketing arrangements with distributors in other countries. We may also explore a range of other commercialization options in order to enter overseas markets and to reduce our capital needs and expenditures, and the risks associated the timelines and uncertainty for attaining the Medicare reimbursement approvals that will be essential for the successful commercialization of additional cancer diagnostic tests. Those alternative arrangements could include marketing arrangements with other diagnostic companies through which we might receive a licensing fee and royalty on sales, or through which we might form a joint venture to market one or more tests and share in net revenues, in the United States or abroad.
In addition to sales and marketing expenses, we will incur expenses from leasing and improving our new office and laboratory facilities in Irvine California, and from operating our CLIA laboratories in Brisbane, California, Irvine, California, and Nashville, Tennessee.
We may need to meet significant cash payment obligations to former Insight and Chronix shareholders in connection with our acquisition of those companies, as disclosed in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. To meet the future cash payment obligations, we may have to utilize cash on hand that would otherwise be available to us for other business and operational purposes, which could cause us to delay or reduce activities in the development and commercialization of our cancer tests.
We will need to continue to raise additional capital to finance our operations, including the development and commercialization of our diagnostic tests, and making payments that may become due under our obligations to former Chronix shareholders and former Insight shareholders, until such time as we are able to generate sufficient revenues to cover our operating expenses. Delays in the development of DetermaIO™, or obtaining reimbursement coverage from Medicare for that diagnostic test and for the other diagnostic tests that we may develop or acquire, could prevent us from raising sufficient additional capital to finance the completion of development and commercial launch of those tests. Investors may be reluctant to provide us with capital until our tests are approved for reimbursement by Medicare or reimbursement by private healthcare insurers or healthcare providers, or until we begin generating significant amounts of revenue from performing those tests. The unavailability or inadequacy of financing or revenues to meet future capital needs could force us to modify, curtail, delay, or suspend some or all aspects of our planned operations. Sales of additional equity securities could result in the dilution of the interests of our shareholders. We cannot assure that adequate financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all.
Our ability to generate revenues from operating activities and the availability of financing may be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic which could continue to cause deferrals of cancer surgeries that might otherwise have resulted in the utilization of DetermaRx™, or could cause the deferral of clinical development of therapies that might otherwise have resulted in the utilization of DetermaIO™ or our Pharma Services. The commercial release of DetermaRx™ and our acquisition of the Insight Pharma Services business during the COVID-19 pandemic has rendered it more difficult for prospective investors to forecast the demand for our diagnostic testing and Pharma Services and to assess our opportunities for growth. Although the deployment of the recently developed vaccines may quell the impact of COVID-19, the pandemic could continue to depress national and international economies and disrupt capital markets, supply chains, and aspects of our operations for a period of time, all of which may render it more difficult for us to secure additional financing when needed. The extent to which the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will ultimately impact our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows is highly uncertain and difficult to predict because it will depend on many factors that are outside of our control, such as the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic, steps required or mandated by governments to mitigate the impact of the pandemic, and whether COVID-19 can be effectively prevented and contained by the new vaccines, and whether effective treatments may be developed. We do not yet know the extent to which COVID-19 will negatively impact our financial results or liquidity.

Cash used in operations
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, our total research and development expenses were $5.1 million, our sales and marketing expenses were $3.2 million, and our general and administrative expenses were $5.7 million. We also incurred $2.0 million in cost of revenues, including $0.9 million amortization of intangible expenses, in the first three months of 2022. Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 amounted to $10.3 million and net cash used in operating activities amounted to $13.3 million. Our cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 does not include the following noncash items: $2.0 million in stock-based compensation; $4.7 million in gain from change in fair value of contingent consideration; $1.2 million in depreciation and amortization expenses; and $0.3 million in unrealized gain on marketable equity securities. Changes in operating assets and liabilities were approximately $1.9 million as an additional use of cash.
Cash used in investing activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $1.6 million, primarily attributable to $1.6 million paid for construction in progress and purchase of furniture and equipment.
Cash provided by financing activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $0.4 million, primarily attributable to repayments of principal on loans payable and financing lease obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Under SEC rules and regulations, as a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
It is management’s responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal control over all financial reporting pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Following this review and evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer, and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that a number of our employees are working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

Oncocyte Corporation (“Oncocyte”), incorporated in 2009 in the state of California, is a molecular diagnostics company focused on developing and commercializing proprietary laboratory-developed tests (“LDTs”) to serve unmet medical needs across the cancer care continuum. Oncocyte’s mission is to provide actionable information to physicians and patients at critical decision points to optimize diagnosis and treatment decisions, improve patient outcomes, and reduce overall cost of care. Oncocyte has prioritized lung cancer as its first indication. Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death in the United States, despite the availability of molecular testing and novel therapies to treat patients.
Oncocyte’s first product for commercial release is a proprietary treatment stratification test called DetermaRx™ that identifies which patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer may benefit from chemotherapy, resulting in a significantly higher, five-year survival rate. Beginning in September 2019 through February 23, 2021, Oncocyte held a 25% equity interest in Razor Genomics, Inc. (“Razor”), a privately held company, that has developed and licensed to Oncocyte the lung cancer treatment stratification laboratory test that Oncocyte is commercializing as DetermaRx™. On February 24, 2021, Oncocyte completed the purchase of all the remaining issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Razor and paid the selling shareholders in total $10 million in cash and issued them Oncocyte common stock having a market value of $5.7 million on that date. As a result of the purchase of the Razor common stock, Oncocyte became the sole shareholder of Razor. The acquisition of the remaining equity interests was accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805-50, Business Combinations. See Note 3 for a full discussion of the Razor asset acquisition.
Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Insight Genetics, Inc. (“Insight”) on January 31, 2020 (the “Insight Merger Date”) through a merger with a newly incorporated wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte (the “Insight Merger”) under the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Insight Merger Agreement”). Prior to the Insight Merger, Insight was a privately held company specializing in the discovery and development of the multi-gene molecular, laboratory-developed diagnostic tests that Oncocyte has branded as DetermaIO™. DetermaIO™ is a proprietary gene expression assay with promising data supporting its potential to help identify patients likely to respond to checkpoint inhibitor drugs. Insight has a CLIA-certified diagnostic laboratory with the capacity to support clinical trials or assay design on certain commercially available analytic platforms that may be used to develop additional diagnostic tests. Insight also performs Pharma Services in its CLIA-certified laboratory for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, including testing for biomarker discovery, assay design and development, clinical trial support, and a broad spectrum of biomarker tests (“Pharma Services”). The Insight Merger was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, which requires, among other things, that the assets and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. See Note 3 for a full discussion of the Insight Merger.
On April 15, 2021 (the “Chronix Merger Date”), Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Chronix Biomedical, Inc. (“Chronix”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated February 2, 2021, amended February 23, 2021, and amended and restated as of April 15, 2021 (as amended and restated, the “Chronix Merger Agreement”), by and among Oncocyte, CNI Monitor Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Oncocyte (“Merger Sub”), Chronix, the stockholders party to the Chronix Merger Agreement and a party named as equity holder representative. Pursuant to the Chronix Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Chronix, with Chronix surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte (the “Chronix Merger”). Prior to the Chronix Merger, Chronix was a privately held molecular diagnostics company, developing blood tests for use in cancer treatment and organ transplantation. Through the Chronix Merger, Oncocyte has added to its LDT development pipeline the TheraSure™-CNI Monitor, a patented, blood-based test for immunotherapy monitoring which Oncocyte expects to market as DetermaCNITM in the United States, and TheraSure™ Transplant Monitor, a blood-based solid organ transplantation monitoring test. See Note 3 for additional information about the Chronix Merger.
Other tests in the development pipeline include DetermaTx™, a test intended to complement DetermaIO™ by assessing the mutational status of a tumor to help identify the appropriate targeted therapy. Oncocyte also plans to initiate the development of DetermaMx™ as a blood-based test to monitor cancer patients for recurrence of their disease.
Liquidity
Oncocyte has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows since inception and had an accumulated deficit of $198.1 million as of March 31, 2022. Oncocyte expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flows for the foreseeable future. Oncocyte did not generate revenues from its operations prior to the first quarter of 2020, and revenues since that period through the date of this Report were not sufficient to cover Oncocyte’s operating expenses. Oncocyte finances its operations primarily through the sale of shares of its common stock.
As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had $20.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and held shares of Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (“Lineage”) and AgeX Therapeutics, Inc. (“AgeX”) common stock as marketable equity securities with a combined fair market value of $0.6 million. Oncocyte believes that its current cash, cash equivalents and marketable equity securities are sufficient to carry out current operations through at least twelve months from the issuance date of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in this Report.
On June 11, 2021, Oncocyte entered into an at-the-market sales agreement with BTIG, LLC as sales agent and/or principal (the “Agent” or “BTIG”) pursuant to which Oncocyte may sell up to an aggregate of $50,000,000 of shares of Oncocyte common stock from time to time through the Agent (the “ATM Offering”).
Between July 1, 2021 and March 31, 2022, Oncocyte sold shares of common stock at an average offering price of $ per share, for gross proceeds of approximately $6.27 million through the ATM Offering. Oncocyte will need to raise additional capital to finance its operations, including the development and commercialization of its cancer diagnostic and other tests, until such time as it is able to generate sufficient revenues from the commercialization of one or more of its LDTs and other tests and performing Pharma Services to cover its operating expenses.
On April 19, 2022, Oncocyte received net proceeds of approximately $32.8 million from an underwritten offering of shares of common stock, no par value per share of the Company, and 26,266,417 warrants (the “April 2022 Warrants”) to purchase up to 13,133,208.5 shares of Common Stock (the “April 2022 Offering”). See Note 14 for additional information about the April 2022 Offering.
Presently, Oncocyte is devoting substantially all of its efforts on initial commercialization efforts for DetermaRx™, completing clinical development and planning commercialization of DetermaIO™, although DetermaIO™ is currently available for biopharma diagnostic development and research use only as a companion test in immunotherapy drug development to select patients for clinical trials; continuing development and planning commercialization of DetermaTxTM and the clinical launch of TheraSureTM Transplant Monitor. While Oncocyte plans to primarily market its LDTs in the United States through its own sales force, it is also beginning to make marketing arrangements with distributors in other countries. In order to reduce capital needs and to expedite the commercialization of any new LDTs that may become available for clinical use, Oncocyte may also pursue marketing arrangements with other diagnostic companies through which Oncocyte might receive licensing fees and royalty on sales, or through which it might form a joint venture to market its tests and share in net revenues, in the United States or abroad.
In addition to general economic and capital market trends and conditions, Oncocyte’s ability to raise sufficient additional capital to finance its operations from time to time will depend on a number of factors specific to Oncocyte’s operations such as operating revenues and expenses, progress in development of, or in obtaining reimbursement coverage from Medicare for DetermaIO™ and other future LDTs that Oncocyte may develop or acquire.
The availability of financing and Oncocyte’s ability to generate revenues from operating activities may be adversely impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which could continue to cause deferrals of cancer surgeries that might otherwise have resulted in the utilization of DetermaRx™ and deferrals of drug development clinical trials that might have utilized Oncocyte’s Pharma Services. The COVID-19 pandemic also could continue to depress national and international economies and disrupt capital markets, supply chains, and aspects of Oncocyte’s operations. The extent to which the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will ultimately impact Oncocyte’s business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows is highly uncertain and difficult to predict because it will depend on many factors that are outside Oncocyte’s control.
The unavailability or inadequacy of financing or revenues to meet future capital needs could force Oncocyte to modify, curtail, delay, or suspend some or all aspects of planned operations. Sales of additional equity securities could result in the dilution of the interests of its shareholders. Oncocyte cannot assure that adequate financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all.

| Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements presented herein, and discussed below, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In accordance with those rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in comprehensive consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in Oncocyte’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Principles of consolidation
On January 31, 2020, with the consummation of the Insight Merger, Insight became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Insight’s operations and results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3). On February 24, 2021, with the acquisition of the remaining equity interests in Razor, Razor became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Razor’s results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3). On April 15, 2021, with the acquisition of Chronix, Chronix became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Chronix’s operations and results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3).
The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of Oncocyte’s financial condition and results of operations. The condensed consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates estimates which are subject to significant judgment, including, but not limited to, valuation methods used, assumptions requiring the use of judgment to prepare financial projections, timing of potential commercialization of acquired in-process intangible assets, applicable discount rates, probabilities of the likelihood of multiple outcomes of certain events related to contingent consideration, comparable companies or transactions, determination of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed including those relating to contingent consideration, revenue recognition, assumptions related to going concern assessments, allocation of direct and indirect expenses, useful lives associated with long-lived intangible assets, key assumptions in operating and financing leases including incremental borrowing rates, loss contingencies, valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, and assumptions used to value debt and stock-based awards and other equity instruments. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.
Similarly, Oncocyte assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to, Oncocyte’s equity investments, the carrying value of goodwill, acquired in-process intangible assets and other long-lived assets. Those assessments as well as other estimates referenced above were made in the context of information reasonably available to Oncocyte.
Business combinations and fair value measurements
Oncocyte accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, which requires the purchase consideration transferred to be measured at fair value on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC 820 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and expands on required disclosures about fair value measurement. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
● Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
● Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
● Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
When a part of the purchase consideration consists of shares of Oncocyte common stock, Oncocyte calculates the purchase price attributable to those shares, a Level 1 security, by determining the fair value of those shares as of the acquisition date based on prices quoted on the principal national securities exchange on which the shares traded. Oncocyte recognizes estimated fair values of the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development, and liabilities assumed, including any contingent consideration, as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is recognized as any amount of the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in excess of the consideration transferred. ASC 805 precludes the recognition of an assembled workforce as an asset, effectively subsuming any assembled workforce value into goodwill.
In determining fair value, Oncocyte utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, and also considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. For the periods presented, Oncocyte has no financial assets or liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, except for cash and cash equivalents consisting of money market funds and marketable equity securities of Lineage and AgeX common stock held by Oncocyte described below. These assets are measured at fair value using the period-end quoted market prices as a Level 1 input. Oncocyte also has certain contingent consideration liabilities which are carried at fair value based on Level 3 inputs (see Note 3).
The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair values because of the short-term nature of these items.
The carrying amount of the loan payable to Silicon Valley Bank approximates fair value because the loan bears interest at a floating market rate (see Note 12).
Goodwill and intangible assets
In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) projects acquired in a business combination that are not complete as of the acquisition date are capitalized and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the related research and development efforts. Upon successful completion of the project, the capitalized amount is amortized over its estimated useful life. If a project is abandoned, all remaining capitalized amounts are written off immediately. Oncocyte considers various factors and risks for potential impairment of IPR&D assets, including the current legal and regulatory environment and the competitive landscape. Adverse clinical trial results, significant delays or inability to obtain local determination coverage (“LCD”) from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) for Medicare reimbursement for a diagnostic test, the inability to bring a diagnostic test to market and the introduction or advancement of competitors’ diagnostic tests could result in partial or full impairment of the related intangible assets. Consequently, the eventual realized value of the IPR&D project may vary from its fair value at the date of acquisition, and IPR&D impairment charges may occur in future periods. During the period between completion or abandonment, the IPR&D assets will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if Oncocyte becomes aware of any events occurring or changes in circumstances that would indicate a reduction in the fair value of the IPR&D projects below their respective carrying amounts (see Notes 3 and 4).
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net identifiable assets and liabilities. Goodwill, similar to IPR&D, is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually, or if circumstances indicate its value may no longer be recoverable. Qualitative factors considered in this assessment include industry and market conditions, overall financial performance, and other relevant events and factors affecting Oncocyte’s business. Based on the qualitative assessment, if it is determined that the fair value of goodwill is more likely than not to be less than its carrying amount, the fair value of a reporting unit will be calculated and compared with its carrying amount and an impairment charge will be recognized for the amount that the carrying value exceeds the fair value. Oncocyte continues to operate in one segment and considered to be the sole reporting unit and, therefore, goodwill is tested for impairment at the enterprise level.
Oncocyte does not have intangible assets with indefinite useful lives other than goodwill and the acquired IPR&D discussed in Notes 3 and 4. As of March 31, 2022, there has been no impairment of goodwill and intangible assets.
Long-lived intangible assets
Long-lived intangible assets, consisting primarily of acquired customer relationships, are stated at acquired cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 5 years (see Notes 3 and 4).
Contingent consideration liabilities
Certain of Oncocyte’s asset and business acquisitions involve the potential for future payment of consideration to third-parties and former selling shareholders in amounts determined as a percentage of future net revenues generated, or upon attainment of revenue milestones, from Pharma Services or LDTs, as applicable, or annual minimum royalties to certain licensors, as provided in the applicable agreements. The fair value of such liabilities is determined using unobservable inputs. These inputs include the estimated amount and timing of projected cash flows and the risk-adjusted discount rate used to present value the cash flows (see Notes 3 and 4). These obligations are referred to as contingent consideration.
ASC 805 requires that contingent consideration be estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the selling shareholders based on a percentage of certain revenues generated.
The fair value of contingent consideration after the acquisition date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Changes in key assumptions can materially affect the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and, accordingly, the resulting gain or loss that Oncocyte records in its condensed consolidated interim financial statements. See Notes 3 and 4 for a full discussion of these liabilities.
Investments in capital stock of privately held companies
Oncocyte evaluates whether investments held in common stock of other companies require consolidation of the company under, first, the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model, and then under the voting interest model in accordance with accounting guidance for consolidations under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10. If consolidation of the entity is not required under either the VIE model or the voting interest model, Oncocyte determines whether the equity method of accounting should be applied in accordance with ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. The equity method applies to investments in common stock or in-substance common stock if Oncocyte exercises significant influence over, but does not control, the entity, where significant influence is typically represented by ownership of 20% or more, but less than majority ownership, of the voting interests of a company.
Oncocyte initially records equity method investments at fair value on the date of the acquisition with subsequent adjustments to the investment balance based on Oncocyte’s pro rata share of earnings or losses from the investment.
Since February 24, 2021, the date of Oncocyte’s acquisition of the remaining interests in Razor, the Razor entity’s financial statements have been consolidated with Oncocyte (see Notes 3 and 4).
Impairment of long-lived assets
Oncocyte assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that such assets might be impaired and the carrying value may not be recoverable. Oncocyte’s long-lived assets consist primarily of intangible assets, right-of-use assets for operating leases, customer relationships, and machinery and equipment. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and the expected undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value, is recorded. As of March 31, 2022, there has been no impairment of long-lived assets.
Revenue recognition
Effective on January 1, 2020, Oncocyte adopted the revenue recognition standard ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC) 606. Pursuant to ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of services performed is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration Oncocyte expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. ASC 606 provides for a five-step model that includes:
(i) identifying the contract with a customer, (ii) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Oncocyte determines transaction prices based on the amount of consideration we expect to receive for transferring the promised goods or services in the contract. Consideration may be fixed, variable, or a combination of both. We consider any constraints on the variable consideration and include in the transaction price variable consideration to the extent it is deemed probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
DetermaRx™ testing revenue
Oncocyte generates revenue from performing DetermaRx™ tests on clinical samples through orders received from physicians, hospitals, and other healthcare providers. In determining whether all the revenue recognition criteria (i) through (v) above are met with respect to DetermaRx™ tests, each test result is considered a single performance obligation and is generally considered complete when the test result is delivered or made available to the prescribing physician electronically, and, as such, there are no shipping or handling fees incurred by Oncocyte or billed to customers. Although Oncocyte bills a list price for all tests ordered and completed for all payer types, Oncocyte considers constraints on the variable consideration when recognizing revenue for DetermaRx™. Because DetermaRx™ is a novel test and there are no current reimbursement arrangements with third-party payers other than Medicare, the transaction price represents variable consideration. Application of the constraint for variable consideration is an area that requires significant judgment. For all payers other than Medicare, Oncocyte must consider the novelty of the test, the uncertainty of receiving payment, or being subject to claims for a refund, from payers with whom it does not have a sufficient payment collection history or contractual reimbursement agreements. Accordingly, for those payers, Oncocyte expects to continue to recognize revenue upon payment until it has a sufficient history to reliably estimate payment patterns or has contractual reimbursement arrangements, or both, in place. In September 2020, Oncocyte received a final pricing decision for DetermaRx™ from CMS, and with Medicare coverage in effect, Oncocyte commenced recognizing revenue when DetermaRx™ tests are performed for Medicare patients, or when payment was approved by Medicare in the case of certain tests performed prior to September 2020.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, after accumulating additional history of cash receipts and other factors considered by management for Medicare Advantage covered tests, including the recently published Medicare rate which management believes entitles Oncocyte to get reimbursed for Medicare Advantage covered tests at the Medicare rate, Oncocyte commenced recognizing Medicare Advantage covered tests on an accrual basis, upon considering no further constraints on the variable consideration, at the Medicare rate.
As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had accounts receivable of $1.5 million from Medicare and Medicare Advantage covered DetermaRx™ tests (see Note 7). As of December 31, 2021, Oncocyte had accounts receivable of $1.1 million from Medicare covered DetermaRx™ tests.
Pharma services revenue
Revenues recognized include Pharma Services performed by Oncocyte’s Insight and Chronix subsidiaries for its pharmaceutical customers, including testing for biomarker discovery, assay design and development, clinical trial support, and a broad spectrum of biomarker tests. These Pharma Services are generally performed under individual scope of work (“SOW”) arrangements or license agreements (together with SOW the “Pharma Services Agreements”) with specific deliverables defined by the customer. Pharma Services are performed on a (i) time and materials basis or (ii) per test completed basis. Upon completion of the service to the customer in accordance with a Pharma Services Agreement, Oncocyte has the right to bill the customer for the agreed upon price (either on a per test or per deliverable basis) and recognizes Pharma Service revenue at that time. Insight identifies each sale of its Pharma Service offering as a single performance obligation. Chronix identifies the processing of test samples as a separate performance obligation (considered a series) within license agreements with customers.
Completion of the service and satisfaction of the performance obligation is typically evidenced by access to the report or test made available to the customer or any other form or applicable manner of delivery defined in the Pharma Services Agreements. However, for certain SOWs under which work is performed pursuant to the customer’s highly customized specifications, Oncocyte has the enforceable right to bill the customer for work completed, rather than upon completion of the SOW. For those SOWs, Oncocyte recognizes revenue over a period during which the work is performed using a formula that accounts for expended efforts, generally measured in labor hours, as a percentage of total estimated efforts for the completion of the SOW. As performance obligations are satisfied under the Pharma Services Agreements, any amounts earned as revenue and billed to the customer are included in accounts receivable. Any revenues earned but not yet billed to the customer as of the date of Oncocyte’s consolidated financial statements are recorded as contract assets and are included in prepaids and other current assets as of the financial statement date. Amounts recorded in contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable in Oncocyte’s consolidated financial statements when the customer is invoiced according to the billing schedule in the contract.
Oncocyte establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the evaluation of the collectability of its Pharma Services accounts receivables after considering a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, significant events that may impair the customer’s ability to pay, such as a bankruptcy filing or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position, reasonable and supportable forecast that affect the collectability of the reported amount, and historical experience. If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables would be further adjusted. Oncocyte continuously monitors collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses and uncollectible accounts, if any, based upon its historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. Amounts determined to be uncollectible are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte has not recorded any losses or allowance for doubtful accounts on its account receivables from Pharma Services.
As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had accounts receivable from Pharma Services customers of $0.6 million, as compared to $0.4 million as of December 31, 2021 (see Note 7).
Licensing revenue
Revenues recognized includes licensing revenue derived from agreements with customers for exclusive rights to market Oncocyte’s proprietary testing technology. Under the agreements, Oncocyte grants exclusive rights to certain trademarks and technology of Oncocyte for the purpose of marketing Oncocyte’s tests within a defined geographic territory. A license agreement may specify milestone deliverables or performance obligations, for which Oncocyte recognizes revenue when its licensee confirms the completion of Oncocyte’s performance obligation. A licensing agreement may also include ongoing sales support from Oncocyte and typically includes non-refundable licensing fees and per-test Pharma Services revenues discussed above, for which Oncocyte treats the licensing of the technology, trademarks, and ongoing support as a single performance obligation satisfied by the passage of time over the term of the agreement.
Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues generally consists of cost of materials, direct labor including benefits, bonus and stock-based compensation, equipment and infrastructure expenses, clinical sample related costs associated with performing DetermaRx™ tests and Pharma Services, providing deliverables according to our licensing agreements, license fees due to third parties, and amortization of acquired intangible assets such as the Razor asset and customer relationship intangible assets. Infrastructure expenses include depreciation of laboratory equipment, allocated rent costs, leasehold improvements, and allocated information technology costs for operations at Oncocyte’s CLIA laboratories in California and Tennessee. Costs associated with generating the revenues are recorded as the tests or services are performed regardless of whether revenue was recognized. Royalties or revenue share payments for licensed technology calculated as a percentage of revenues generated using the associated technology are recorded as expenses at the time the related revenues are recognized.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses are comprised of costs incurred to develop technology, which include salaries and benefits (including stock-based compensation), laboratory expenses (including reagents and supplies used in research and development laboratory work), infrastructure expenses (including allocated facility occupancy costs), and contract services and other outside costs. Indirect research and development expenses are allocated primarily based on headcount, as applicable, and include rent and utilities, common area maintenance, telecommunications, property taxes, and insurance. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Sales and marketing expenses
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs and related benefits, including stock-based compensation, trade show expenses, branding and positioning expenses, and consulting fees. Sales and marketing expenses also include indirect expenses for applicable overhead allocated based on headcount, and include allocated costs for rent and utilities, common area maintenance, telecommunications, property taxes, and insurance.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits (including stock-based compensation) for executive and corporate personnel, professional and consulting fees, rent and utilities, common area maintenance, telecommunications, property taxes, and insurance.
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive.
All common stock equivalents are antidilutive because Oncocyte reported a net loss for all periods presented. Accordingly, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share of common stock for the periods presented (in thousands):
Leases
Oncocyte accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. Oncocyte determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases are classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Under the available practical expedients for the adoption of ASC 842, Oncocyte accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Oncocyte recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than twelve months in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, Oncocyte uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Oncocyte uses the implicit rate when it is readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that Oncocyte will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating leases are included as right-of-use assets in machinery and equipment, and ROU lease liabilities, current and long-term, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Financing leases are included in machinery and equipment, and in financing lease liabilities, current and long-term, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Oncocyte discloses the amortization of our ROU assets and operating lease payments as a net amount, “Amortization of right-of-use assets and liabilities”, on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Based on the available practical expedients under the standard, Oncocyte elected not to capitalize leases that have terms of twelve months or less.
During 2020 and 2021, Oncocyte entered into various operating leases and an embedded operating lease in accordance with ASC 842 discussed in Note 10. Oncocyte’s accounting for financing leases remained substantially unchanged.
Oncocyte accounts for the shares of Lineage and AgeX common stock it holds as marketable equity securities in accordance with ASC 320-10-25, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, as amended by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01, Financial Instruments–Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, as the shares have a readily determinable fair value quoted on the NYSE American and are held principally to meet future working capital purposes, as necessary. The securities are measured at fair value, with related gains and losses in the value of such securities recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in other income (expense), and are reported as current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the closing trading price of the security as of the date being presented.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Oncocyte held and shares of common stock of Lineage and AgeX, respectively, as marketable equity securities with a combined fair market value of $0.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
Deferred revenue
In June 2018 and subsequently amended in June 2019, Chronix and a medical diagnostic service company in Germany (“the German customer”) entered into a licensing and testing service agreement (“the German agreement”) for intellectual property related to TheraSure™-CNI Monitor and TheraSure™ Transplant Monitor. Under the terms of the agreement, Chronix received from the German customer an upfront payment of €3.7 million, less applicable VAT obligations, which Chronix recognized ratably over the contract term of 3.5 years. The German agreement contains a stipulation that requires Chronix to refund to the German customer a portion of the upfront fee on a pro rata basis if the German agreement is terminated prior to December 31, 2021. The deferred revenue of $738,000 recorded at the acquisition date represents the refund Oncocyte would pay to the German customer should it terminate the agreement prior to the agreed upon term. As of December 31, 2021, Oncocyte has fully amortized the deferred revenue and recorded revenue ratably over the remaining period as the German customer’s refund rights expire.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
The following accounting standards, which are not yet effective, are presently being evaluated by Oncocyte to determine the impact that it might have on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-10, which amends the current approach to estimate credit losses on certain financial assets, including trade and other receivables. Generally, this amendment requires entities to establish a valuation allowance for the expected lifetime losses of these certain financial assets. Upon the initial recognition of such assets, which will be based on, among other things, historical information, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. Subsequent changes in the valuation allowance are recorded in current earnings and reversal of previous losses are permitted. Currently, U.S. GAAP requires entities to write down credit losses only when losses are probable and loss reversals are not permitted. The update will be effective for Oncocyte in the first quarter of 2023. Early adoption is permitted. Oncocyte is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, to provide specific guidance to eliminate diversity in practice on how to recognize and measure acquired contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts from customers in a business combination consistent with revenue contracts with customers not acquired in an acquisition. The amendments in this update provide that the acquirer should consider the terms of the acquired contracts, such as timing of payment, identify each performance obligation in the contracts, and allocate the total transaction price to each identified performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis as of contract inception (that is, the date the acquiree entered into the contracts) or contract modification to determine what should be recorded at the acquisition date. These amendments are effective for the Company beginning with fiscal year 2023. The impact of the adoption of the amendments in this update will depend on the magnitude of any customer contracts assumed in a business combination in 2023 and beyond.
COVID-19 impact and related risks
The ongoing global outbreak of COVID-19, and the various attempts throughout the world to contain it, have created significant volatility, uncertainty and disruption. In response to government directives and guidelines, health care advisories and employee and other concerns, Oncocyte has altered certain aspects of its operations. A number of Oncocyte’s employees have had to work remotely from home and those on site have had to follow Oncocyte’s social distance guidelines, which could impact their productivity. COVID-19 could also disrupt Oncocyte’s operations due to absenteeism by infected or ill members of management or other employees, or absenteeism by members of management and other employees who cannot effectively work remotely but who elect not to come to work due to the illness affecting others in Oncocyte’s office or laboratory facilities, or due to quarantines.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Oncocyte has not been able, and may continue to not be able, to maintain its preferred level of physician or customer outreach and marketing of its diagnostic testing and Pharma Services, which may have negatively impacted and may continue to negatively impact potential new customers’ interest in those tests and services. Because of COVID-19, travel, visits, and in-person meetings related to Oncocyte’s business have been severely curtailed or canceled and Oncocyte has instead used on-line or virtual meetings to meet with potential customers and others.
In addition to operational adjustments, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic have led to uncertainties related to Oncocyte’s business growth and ability to forecast the demand for its LDTs and Pharma Services and resulting revenues. Concerns over available hospital, staffing, equipment, and other resources, and the risk of exposure to the virus, have led to delays in early-stage lung cancer surgeries and clinical trials of drugs under development by pharma companies, and the continued deferral of lung cancer surgeries and drug development clinical trials due to resurgence in COVID-19 cases could continue to result in delayed or reduced use of DetermaRx™ and Oncocyte’s Pharma Services.
It is possible that impacts of COVID-19 on Oncocyte’s operations or revenues or its access to capital could prevent Oncocyte from complying, or could result in a material noncompliance, with one or more obligations or covenants under material agreements to which Oncocyte is a party, with the result that Oncocyte would be in material breach of the applicable obligation, covenant, or agreement. Any such material breach could cause Oncocyte to incur material financial liabilities or an acceleration of the date for paying a financial obligation to the other party to the applicable agreement, or could cause Oncocyte to lose material contractual rights, such as rights to use leased equipment or laboratory or office space, or rights to use licensed patents or other intellectual property, the use of which is material to Oncocyte’s business. Similarly, it is possible that impacts of COVID-19 on the business, operations, or financial condition of any third party with whom Oncocyte has a contractual relationship could cause the third party to be unable to perform its contractual obligations to Oncocyte, resulting in Oncocyte’s loss of the benefits of a contract that could be material to Oncocyte’s business.
The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it might impact Oncocytes’ business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that are not subject to accurate prediction and that are beyond Oncocyte’s control.

Acquisition of Insight Genetics, Inc.
On January 31, 2020 (the “Insight Merger Date”), Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Insight pursuant to the Insight Merger Agreement.
Merger Consideration at Closing
Under the terms of the Insight Merger Agreement, Oncocyte agreed to pay $7 million in cash and $5 million of Oncocyte common stock (the “Initial Merger Consideration”), subject to a holdback for indemnity claims not to exceed ten percent of the total Merger Consideration. The parties agreed to holdback $0.6 million in cash (“Cash Holdback”) and approximately million shares of Oncocyte common stock (“Stock Holdback”) through December 31, 2020, in the event that Oncocyte has indemnity claims. The Stock Holdback shares are considered to be issued and outstanding shares of Oncocyte common stock as of the Insight Merger Date but were placed in an escrow account and was to be released from escrow after the holdback period, less any shares that may be returned to Oncocyte on account of any indemnity claims. Accordingly, on the Insight Merger Date, Oncocyte delivered approximately $11.4 million in Merger Consideration, consisting of $6.4 million in cash, which was net of the $0.6 million cash holdback, and million shares of Oncocyte common stock, which includes the stock holdback shares placed in escrow. The shares of Oncocyte common stock delivered were valued at $5 million, based on the average closing price of Oncocyte common stock on the NYSE American during the five trading days immediately preceding the date of the Insight Merger Agreement.
In March 2021, in accordance with the Insight Merger Agreement, the Cash Holdback was paid and the Stock Holdback was released from escrow to the selling shareholders.
Milestone Payments (Milestone Contingent Consideration)
In addition to the Initial Merger Consideration, Oncocyte may also pay contingent consideration of up to $6.0 million in any combination of cash or shares of Oncocyte common stock if certain milestones are achieved (the “Milestone Contingent Consideration”), which consist of (i) $1.5 million for clinical trial completion and data publication milestone, (ii) $3.0 million for an affirmative final local coverage determination from CMS for a specified lung cancer test, and (iii) up to $1.5 million for achieving certain CMS reimbursement milestones. As of March 31, 2022, no milestones have been met and no payments have been made.
Revenue Share (Royalty Contingent Consideration)
As additional consideration for Insight’s shareholders, the Insight Merger Agreement provides for Oncocyte to pay a revenue share of not more than ten percent of net collected revenues for current Insight pharma service offerings over a period of ten years, and a tiered revenue share percentage of net collected revenues through the end of the technology lifecycle if certain new cancer tests are developed and commercialized using Insight technology (“Royalty Contingent Consideration”). As of March 31, 2022, the royalty contingent consideration has not been met and no payments have been made.
Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Insight Merger Agreement, Oncocyte filed a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the shares of common stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) issued in connection with the Insight Merger, which the SEC declared effective in August 2020.
Workforce
In connection with the closing of the Insight Merger, Oncocyte did not assume sponsorship of the Insight Equity Incentive Plan. Accordingly, the Insight Equity Incentive Plan and all related stock options to purchase shares of Insight common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Insight Merger were canceled on the Insight Merger Date for no consideration. At the Insight Merger Date, all of Insight’s employees ceased employment with Insight, and Oncocyte offered employment to certain of those former Insight employees, principally in laboratory roles and certain administrative roles (“New Oncocyte Employees”), and granted new equity awards to the New Oncocyte Employees under the Oncocyte 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. All Oncocyte stock option awards granted to the New Oncocyte Employees have vesting terms and conditions consistent with stock options granted to most other Oncocyte employees.
Aggregate Merger Consideration and Purchase Price Allocation
The calculation of the aggregate merger consideration, consisting of the Initial Merger Consideration, Milestone Contingent Consideration and Royalty Contingent Consideration (the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”) transferred on January 31, 2020, at fair value, is shown in the following table (in thousands, except for share and per share amounts). The Milestone Contingent Consideration and the Royalty Contingent Consideration are collectively referred to as “Contingent Consideration”.
Aggregate Merger Consideration allocation
Oncocyte allocated the Aggregate Merger Consideration transferred to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the Insight Merger Date. The fair values of the identifiable intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed was determined based on inputs that were unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, which is also based on estimates and assumptions made by management at the time of the Insight Merger. As such, this was classified as Level 3 fair value hierarchy measurements and disclosures in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement.
The following table sets forth the allocation of the Aggregate Merger Consideration transferred to Insight’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the Insight Merger Date, with the excess recorded as goodwill (in thousands):
The valuation of identifiable intangible assets and applicable estimated useful lives are as follows (in thousands, except for useful life):
The following is a discussion of the valuation methods and significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of Insight’s material assets and liabilities in connection with the Insight Merger:
Acquired In-Process Research and Development and Deferred Income Tax Liability – The fair value of identifiable IPR&D intangible assets consists of $14.7 million allocated to DetermaIO™.
Oncocyte determined the estimated aggregate fair value of DetermaIO™ using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method (“MPEEM”) under the income approach. MPEEM calculates the economic benefits by determining the income attributable to an intangible asset after the returns are subtracted for contributory assets such as working capital, assembled workforce, and fixed assets. The resulting after-tax net earnings are discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk inherent in the economic benefit projections of the assets.
To calculate fair value of DetermaIO™ under MPEEM, Oncocyte used probability-weighted, projected cash flows discounted at a rate considered appropriate given the significant inherent risks associated with similar assets. Cash flows were calculated based on projections of revenues and expenses related to the asset and were assumed to extend through a multi-year projection period. Revenues from commercialization of DetermaIO™ were based on the estimated market potential for the indications for use which may include tests for the treatment of certain lung cancers and tests for the treatment of certain breast cancers. The expected cash flows from DetermaIO™ were then discounted to present value using a weighted-average cost of capital for companies with profiles substantially similar to that of Oncocyte and the risk inherent in the economic benefit projections of similar assets, which Oncocyte believes represents the rate that market participants would use to value those assets. The discount rate used to value DetermaIO™ was approximately 35%. The projected cash flows were based on significant assumptions, including the time and resources needed to complete development of the asset, timing and reimbursement rates from CMS, regulatory approvals, if any, to commercialize the asset, estimates of the number of tests that might be performed, revenue and operating profit expected to be generated by the asset, the expected economic life of the asset, market penetration and competition, and risks associated with achieving commercialization, including delay or failure to obtain CMS and any required regulatory approval, failure of clinical trials, and intellectual property litigation.
Because the IPR&D (prior to completion or abandonment of the research and development) is considered an indefinite-lived asset for accounting purposes but is not recognized for tax purposes, the fair value of the IPR&D on the acquisition date generated a deferred income tax liability (“DTL”) in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. This DTL is computed using the fair value of the IPR&D assets on the acquisition date multiplied by Oncocyte’s federal and state effective income tax rates. While this DTL would reverse on impairment or sale or commencement of amortization of the related intangible assets, ASC 740 allows Oncocyte to treat acquired available deferred tax assets (“DTAs”), such as Insight’s net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) (subject to the annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code) as available DTAs to offset against the DTLs, as the DTLs are expected to reverse within the NOL carryforward period. Any excess DTAs over those DTLs would be assessed for a valuation allowance in accordance with ASC 740. This accounting treatment is acceptable if, at the time of the acquisition, Oncocyte can both reasonably estimate a timeline to commercialization and the economic useful life of the IPR&D assets upon commercialization, which will be amortized during the carryforward period of the offsetting DTAs. On the Insight Merger Date, Oncocyte estimated and recorded a net DTL of $1.3 million after offsetting the acquired available NOLs with the IPR&D generated DTLs (see Note 8).
Customer relationships – Insight provided a range of Pharma Services to its pharmaceutical customers. None of the Pharma Services are related to DetermaIO™. The Pharma Service customer relationships are considered separate long-lived intangible assets under ASC 805 and were valued primarily using the MPEEM discussed above, and will be amortized over their useful life, estimated to be 5 years based on the net income that can be expected from these relationships in future years and based on observed historical trends. The resulting cash flows were discounted to the valuation date based on a rate of return that recognizes a lower level of risk associated with these assets as compared to DetermaIO™ discussed above. As of the Insight Merger Date, there were no uncompleted performance obligations by Insight under any of its Pharma Services contracts, therefore no deferred revenues were assumed.
Customer relationships generate similar DTLs to IPR&D as Oncocyte records this asset for accounting purposes but not for tax purposes. Accordingly, Oncocyte has offset all the acquired DTLs associated with the customer relationships with available acquired NOLs and included in the amount recorded discussed above (see Note 8).
Right-of-use assets and liabilities, machinery and equipment – Insight is a lessee under an operating lease with a third-party lessor for its facilities, including its laboratory, in Nashville, Tennessee (the “Nashville Lease”). In April 2019, the Nashville lease was renewed by Insight for a five-year term and is classified as an operating lease under ASC 842. In accordance with ASC 805, when a company acquired in a business combination is a lessee, the acquirer initially measures the lease liability and the right-of-use asset for an acquired operating lease as if the lease is new at the acquisition date. In other words, the lease liability is measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments as of the acquisition date and the right-of-use asset is generally measured at an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted for favorable or unfavorable terms of the lease when compared with market terms. Since the Nashville Lease was renewed by Insight in proximity to the Insight Merger Date, the terms of the Nashville Lease were considered by Oncocyte to be market terms at the Insight Merger Date. Accordingly, Oncocyte measured the net present value of the remaining contractual Nashville Lease payments as of the Insight Merger Date using an incremental borrowing rate consistent with Oncocyte’s other operating leases and recorded a right-of-use liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset of $0.5 million. In addition, $0.1 million was allocated to certain laboratory machinery and equipment approximating the fair value of those assets as of the Insight Merger Date.
Contingent consideration liabilities – ASC 805 requires that contingent consideration be estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the selling shareholders based on a percentage of revenues generated from DetermaIO™ and Insight Pharma Services over their respective useful life. Accordingly, Oncocyte determined there are two types of contingent consideration in connection with the Insight Merger, the Milestone Contingent Consideration and the Royalty Contingent Consideration discussed below, which are collectively referred to as the “Contingent Consideration”.
There are three milestones comprising the Milestone Contingent Consideration, collectively referred to as the Milestones, in connection with the Insight Merger which Oncocyte valued and recorded as part of Contingent Consideration as of the Insight Merger Date (see table below), which consist of (i) a payment for clinical trial completion and related data publication (“Milestone 1”), (ii) a payment for an affirmative final local coverage determination from CMS for a specified lung cancer test (“Milestone 2”), and (iii) a payment for achieving specified CMS reimbursement milestones (“Milestone 3”). If achieved, any respective Milestone will be paid at the contractual value shown below, with the payment made either in cash or in shares of Oncocyte common stock as determined by Oncocyte. There can be no assurance that any of the Milestones will be achieved.
There are two separate components of the Royalty Contingent Consideration, collectively referred to as the Royalty Payments, in connection with the Insight Merger which Oncocyte valued and recorded as part of Contingent Consideration as of the Insight Merger Date (see table below); Royalty Payments consist of (i) revenue share payments based on a percentage of future sales generated from DetermaIO™ (“Royalty 1”), and (ii) revenue share payments based on percentage of future sales generated from current Insight Pharma Service offerings, as defined in the Insight Merger Agreement (“Royalty 2”). There can be no assurance that any revenues on which the Royalty Payments are based will be generated from DetermaIO™ or Pharma Service offerings.
The following table shows the Insight Merger Date contractual payment amounts, as applicable, and the corresponding fair value of each respective Contingent Consideration liability (in thousands):
The fair value of the Milestone Contingent Consideration was determined using a scenario analysis valuation method which incorporates Oncocyte’s assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achievement of the Milestones, credit risk, timing of the Milestone Contingent Consideration payments and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected payments. The discount rate was estimated at approximately 9.7% after adjustment for the probability of achievement of the Milestones. No Milestone Contingent Consideration is payable with respect to a particular Milestone unless and until the Milestone is achieved. Since the Milestone Contingent Consideration payments are based on nonfinancial, binary events, management believes the use of the scenario analysis method is appropriate. The fair value of each Milestone after the Insight Merger Date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in Oncocyte’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The fair value of the Royalty Contingent Consideration was determined using a single scenario analysis method to value the Royalty Payments. The single scenario method incorporates Oncocyte’s assumptions with respect to specified future revenues generated from DetermaIO™ and current Insight Pharma Services over their respective useful lives, credit risk, and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected royalty payments. The credit and risk-adjusted discount rate was estimated at approximately 45%. Since the Royalty Contingent Consideration payments are based on future revenues and linear payouts, management believes the use of the single scenario method is appropriate.
The fair value of the Contingent Consideration after the Insight Merger Date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in Oncocyte’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2022, based on Oncocyte’s reassessment of the significant assumptions note above, there was an increase of approximately $0.4 million to the fair value of the Contingent Consideration primarily attributable to revised estimates of the timing of the possible future payouts and, accordingly, this increase was recorded as an unrealized loss in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
The following table reflects the activity for Oncocyte’s Contingent Consideration since the Insight Merger Date, measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs (in thousands):
Contingent consideration is not deductible for tax purposes, even if paid; therefore, no deferred tax assets related to the Contingent Consideration were recorded.
Goodwill – Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred and the values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including Contingent Consideration. Goodwill also includes the $1.3 million of net deferred tax liabilities recorded principally related to DetermaIO™ and customer relationships discussed above. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment (see Notes 2 and 4). The slight increase to Goodwill as of March 31, 2021 from December 31, 2020 was related to the true up of the final working capital adjustment paid to the selling shareholders in March 2021.
Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets are not amortizable or deductible for tax purposes since these assets are not recognized for tax purposes.
Asset acquisition of Razor Genomics, Inc.
On September 30, 2019, Oncocyte completed the purchase of shares of Razor Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $per share (the “Razor Preferred Stock”), representing 25% of the outstanding equity of Razor on a fully diluted basis, for $10 million in cash (the “Initial Closing”), pursuant to a Subscription and Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated September 4, 2019, among Oncocyte, Encore Clinical, Inc. (“Encore”), and Razor. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Oncocyte entered into Minority Holder Stock Purchase Agreements of like tenor (the “Minority Purchase Agreements”) with the shareholders of Razor other than Encore (the “Minority Shareholders”) for the future purchase of the shares of Razor common stock they own. Oncocyte has also entered into certain other agreements with Razor and Encore, including a Sublicense and Distribution Agreement (the “Sublicense Agreement”), a Development Agreement (the “Development Agreement”), and an amendment to a Laboratory Services Agreement (the “Laboratory Agreement”) pursuant to which Oncocyte became a party to that agreement.
Purchase Option
The Purchase Agreement and Minority Shareholder Agreements granted Oncocyte the option to acquire the balance of the outstanding shares of Razor common stock from Encore under the Purchase Agreement and from the Minority Shareholders under the Minority Purchase Agreements (the “Option”) for an additional $10 million in cash and Oncocyte common stock valued at $5 million in total (the “Additional Purchase Payment”). Oncocyte agreed to exercise the Option if, within a specified time frame, certain milestones are met related to the contracting of clinical trial sites for a clinical trial of DetermaRx™.
On January 29, 2021, the principal shareholder of Razor informed Oncocyte that the milestone requiring Oncocyte to purchase the outstanding shares of Razor common stock had been attained under the Purchase Agreement and Minority Shareholder Purchase Agreements. On February 24, 2021, Oncocyte exercised the Option and completed the purchase of all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Razor and paid the selling shareholders in total $10 million in cash and issued a total of shares of Oncocyte common stock having a market value of $5.7 million on that date. As a result of Oncocyte exercising the Option and purchasing the Razor common stock, Oncocyte is now the sole shareholder of Razor.
Development Agreement
Under the Development Agreement, Razor reserved as a “Clinical Trial Expense Reserve” $4 million of the proceeds it received at the Initial Closing from the sale of the Razor Preferred Stock to Oncocyte, to fund Razor’s share of costs incurred in connection with a clinical trial of DetermaRx™ for purposes of promoting commercialization (“Clinical Trial”).
On February 24, 2021, upon the completion of the outstanding shares of Razor common stock and consolidation of Razor’s accounts, Oncocyte obtained control of approximately $3.4 million in cash from Razor, which was the remaining balance in the Clinical Trial Expense Reserve account that Razor was using to pay for the Clinical Trial expenses. Beginning on February 24, 2021, this balance was transferred to Oncocyte’s control as part of the acquisition date assets and liabilities recorded from the Razor entity shown below. Oncocyte will be responsible for all expenses for the Clinical Trial up to the total budget amount approved by representatives of Oncocyte and Encore on a Steering Committee, which is expected to cover multiple years and is estimated to cost up to $16 million.
Upon completion of enrollment of the full number of patients for the Clinical Trial, Oncocyte will issue to Encore and the Minority Shareholders shares of Oncocyte common stock with an aggregate market value at the date of issue equal to $ million (“Clinical Trial Milestone Payment”). .
If, within a specified time frame, Encore is substantially responsible for obtaining funding to Oncocyte or Razor for the Clinical Trial from any third-party pharmaceutical company, a portion of such additional funding amount will be paid to Encore, subject to a $3 million cap on the payment to Encore if the funding is provided by a designated pharmaceutical company.
Sublicense Agreement
Under the Sublicense Agreement, Razor granted to Oncocyte an exclusive worldwide sublicense under certain patent rights applicable to DetermaRx™ in the field of use covered by the applicable license held by Razor for purposes of commercialization and development of DetermaRx™.
Pursuant to the Razor Sublicense Agreement, Oncocyte will pay all royalties and all revenue sharing and earnout payments owed by Razor to certain third parties with respect to DetermaRx™ revenues, including the licensor of the patent rights sublicensed to Oncocyte, but those payments will be deducted from gross revenues to determine net revenues for the purpose of paying royalties to the former Razor shareholders. Total royalty and earnout payments to the former Razor shareholders, the licensor, and other third parties will be a low double-digit percentage, and in addition certain milestone payments may become due if cumulative net revenue benchmarks are reached. Royalties and earnout payments will be payable on a quarterly basis. This payment obligation will continue after Oncocyte’s purchase of the Razor common stock from Encore and the Minority Shareholders.
Laboratory Agreement
Under the Laboratory Agreement, Oncocyte has assumed Razor’s Laboratory Agreement payment obligations of $450,000 per year (see Note 10). The Laboratory Agreement gives Oncocyte the right to use Razor’s CLIA laboratory in Brisbane, California. Oncocyte pays Encore a quarterly fee for services related to operating and maintaining the CLIA laboratory, including certain staffing. The Laboratory Agreement will expire on September 29, 2021, but Oncocyte may extend the term for additional one-year periods, or Oncocyte may terminate the agreement at its option. Oncocyte also has the right to terminate the Laboratory Agreement if there is an event or occurrence that adversely affects, in any material respect, DetermaRx™ or its prospects or its ability to be commercialized, and it remains continuing and uncured.
Accounting for the Razor Investment
Beginning on the Initial Closing and through February 23, 2021, Oncocyte has accounted for the Razor investment under the equity method of accounting under ASC 323 because prior to the Additional Purchase Payment discussed above Oncocyte exercised significant influence over, but did not control, the Razor entity. Oncocyte did not control Razor because, among other factors, Oncocyte was entitled to designate one person to serve on a three-member board of directors of Razor, with the other two members designated by Encore. Also, any deadlocked decisions by a Steering Committee of Oncocyte and Encore representatives that makes decisions with respect to the Clinical Trial, other than with respect to the Clinical Trial budget, will be resolved by a member designated by Encore.
Prior to February 24, 2021, the aggregate Razor acquisition payments of $11.245 million incurred during September 2019 and a $4 million CMS milestone payment made by Oncocyte during June 2020 under the Development Agreement, were amortized over a 10-year useful life of DetermaRx™ and were reflected in Oncocyte’s pro rata earnings and losses of the equity method investment in Razor in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Beginning on February 24, 2021, Razor’s results are included with Oncocyte’s consolidated results, primarily consisting of outside research and development expenses incurred by Razor for the Clinical Trial.
The Initial Closing equity method investment in Razor and the Additional Purchase Payment for the remaining interests in Razor are both considered an asset acquisition, rather than a business combination, because, among other factors, Razor had no workforce, no commercial product (Razor had granted all commercial rights to Oncocyte), no revenues, no distribution system and no facilities. Substantially all of the fair value of Razor’s assets at the Initial Closing and on February 24, 2021 was concentrated in Razor’s intangible asset, the DetermaRx™ patent and related know-how, thus satisfying the requirements of the practical screen test to be considered an asset acquisition in accordance with ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. Accordingly, no goodwill may be recognized in an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805-50.
As Razor became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte on February 24, 2021, the DTA associated with the previous equity method investment was reversed. There is no tax effect of this reversal as the DTA had been fully offset by a valuation allowance (see Note 8). However, upon payment of the Additional Purchase Payment, Oncocyte recorded an additional step-up to fair value for the Razor intangible asset under ASC 805-50 for financial reporting purposes but this “step-up” is not recognized for income tax purposes. As a result, the fair value adjustment of the Razor intangible asset on the acquisition date generated a DTL in accordance with ASC 740. This DTL is computed using the fair value of the intangible assets on the acquisition date multiplied by Oncocyte’s federal and state effective income tax rates, using the simultaneous equations method for asset acquisitions under the guidance provided in ASC 740-10-25-51, which requires that the DTL be recognized as part of the investment of the acquired asset instead of any immediate income tax expense or benefit arising from the recognition of the DTL. Furthermore, ASC 740 allows Oncocyte to treat acquired available deferred tax assets, such as Razor’s NOLs (subject to the annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code) as available DTAs to offset against the DTLs, as the DTLs are expected to reverse within the NOL carryforward period. Any excess DTAs over those DTLs would be assessed for a valuation allowance in accordance with ASC 740.
On February 24, 2021, Oncocyte estimated and recorded a net DTL of $7.1 million after offsetting the acquired available NOLs with the intangible asset shown in the table below. See Note 8 for a discussion related to the partial release of Oncocyte’s valuation allowance pertaining to the DTL generated above in accordance with ASC 740.
On February 24, 2021, upon Oncocyte’s acquisition of the outstanding common stock of Razor, the Razor intangible asset balance recorded on the acquisition date and included in Intangible Assets was as follows (in thousands):
Under ASC 805-50, for asset acquisitions, the remaining Clinical Trial Milestone Payment will be recorded only if the consideration is both probable (milestone has been achieved) and estimable in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, and as of March 31, 2022, no contingent consideration payment was recorded as the Clinical Trial Milestone Payment was not deemed probable of achievement as of that date.
Summarized standalone financial data for Razor from January 1, 2021 through February 23, 2021
The unaudited standalone results of operations for Razor prior to being consolidated with Oncocyte is summarized below (in thousands):
Acquisition of Chronix Biomedical, Inc.
On April 15, 2021, the Chronix Merger Date, Oncocyte completed its acquisition of Chronix pursuant the Chronix Merger Agreement.
Merger Consideration at Closing
Pursuant to the Chronix Merger Agreement, Oncocyte agreed to deliver closing consideration consisting of approximately (i) shares of Oncocyte common stock (the “Closing Shares”), which represents approximately $1.43 million of Closing Shares issued to Chronix stockholders and approximately $1.87 million of Closing Shares issued to payoff assumed liabilities, based on the $ closing price per share of Oncocyte common stock on the NYSE American on February 1, 2021; (ii) $4.0 million in cash; and (iii) $550,000 net settlement of acquirer/acquiree pre-combination activity (collectively, the “Chronix Closing Consideration”).
Contingent Consideration
As additional consideration for holders of certain classes and series of Chronix capital stock, the Chronix Merger Agreement also provides for Oncocyte to pay “Chronix Contingent Consideration” consisting of (i) “Chronix Milestone Payments” of up to $14 million in any combination of cash or Oncocyte common stock if certain milestones specified in the Chronix Merger Agreement are achieved, (ii) “Royalty Payments” of up to 15% of net collections for sales of specified tests and products during the five-to-ten year earnout periods, and (iii) “Transplant Sale Payments” of up to 75% of net collections from the sale or license to a third party of Chronix’s patents for use in transplantation medicine during a seven-year earnout period.
The Chronix Closing Consideration and Chronix Contingent Consideration include amounts payable to certain directors, officers and employees of Chronix, including officers and employees who are expected to continue to provide services to Chronix following the Chronix Merger.
Liabilities
Pursuant to the Chronix Merger Agreement, to the extent that Oncocyte or any of its subsidiaries, including Chronix, pays, performs or discharges an amount of liabilities of Chronix in excess of $8.25 million (the “Excess Liabilities”), Oncocyte may offset the Excess Liabilities against any Chronix Contingent Consideration payments that subsequently become due and payable pursuant to the Chronix Merger Agreement. Chronix had Excess Liabilities approximating $4.6 million as of the Chronix Merger Date. Prior to Chronix equity holders receiving any Chronix Contingent Consideration payments, all or a partial amount of any funds that would otherwise be payable as Chronix Contingent Consideration payments may be used to pay Excess Liabilities.
Deferred Revenue - In June 2018 and subsequently amended in June 2019, Chronix and a medical diagnostic service company in Germany (“the German customer”) entered into a licensing and testing service agreement (“the German agreement”) for intellectual property related to TheraSure™-CNI Monitor and TheraSure™ Transplant Monitor. Under the terms of the agreement, Chronix received from the German customer an upfront payment of €3.7 million, less applicable VAT obligations, which Chronix recognized ratably over the contract term of 3.5 years. The German agreement contains a stipulation that requires Chronix to refund to the German customer a portion of the upfront fee on a pro rata basis if the German agreement is terminated prior to December 31, 2021. The deferred revenue of $738,000 recorded at the acquisition date represents the refund Oncocyte would pay to the German customer should it terminate the agreement prior to the agreed upon term. Oncocyte will amortize the deferred revenue and record revenue ratably over the remaining period as the German customer’s refund rights expire. As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte has fully amortized the deferred revenue and recorded revenue ratably over the remaining period as the German customer’s refund rights expire.
Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Chronix Merger Agreement, Oncocyte filed a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the shares of common stock under the Securities Act issued in connection with the Chronix Merger, which the SEC declared effective in July 2021.
Workforce
At the Chronix Merger Date, all of Chronix’s employees ceased employment with Chronix, and Oncocyte offered employment to certain of those former Chronix employees, principally in laboratory roles and certain administrative roles in Germany, and granted new equity awards to them under the Oncocyte 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. All these Oncocyte stock option awards granted have vesting terms and conditions consistent with stock options granted to most other Oncocyte employees.
Aggregate Chronix Merger Consideration and Purchase Price Allocation
Measurement period adjustments reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Final determination of the fair values may result in further adjustments to the values presented. To the extent that significant changes occur in the future, Oncocyte will disclose such changes in the reporting period in which they occur.
The calculation of the aggregate merger consideration, consisting of the Closing Consideration and Chronix Contingent Consideration (the “Aggregate Chronix Merger Consideration”), at fair value, is shown in the following table (in thousands, except for share and per share amounts). In accordance with ASC 805, the Chronix Contingent Consideration, at fair value, is part of the total considered transferred on the Chronix Merger Date, as further discussed below.
Pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), Oncocyte accounted for the Chronix acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Identifiable assets and liabilities of Chronix, including identifiable intangible assets, were recorded based on their fair values as of the date of the closing of the acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill.
Upon further review of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, it was determined that the amount previously reported as assumed liabilities were not properly reflected. The following has been updated to reflect the assets acquired and liabilities as of the date of acquisition. The following table sets forth the allocation of the Aggregate Chronix Merger Consideration transferred to Chronix’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):
All tangible assets and liabilities were valued at their respective carrying amounts as management believes that these amounts approximated their acquisition date fair values.
The following is a discussion of the valuation methods and significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of Chronix’s material assets and liabilities in connection with the Chronix Merger:
Acquired In-Process Research and Development and Deferred Income Tax Liability – The fair value of identifiable IPR&D intangible assets consists of $46.8 million allocated to TheraSure™-CNI Monitor and TheraSure™ Transplant Monitor. Oncocyte determined the estimated aggregate fair value of the TheraSure™ test assets using the MPEEM under the income approach. MPEEM calculates the economic benefits by determining the income attributable to an intangible asset after the returns are subtracted for contributory assets such as working capital, assembled workforce, and fixed assets. The resulting after-tax net earnings are discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk inherent in the economic benefit projections of the assets.
To calculate fair value of the TheraSure™ test assets under MPEEM, Oncocyte used probability-weighted, projected cash flows discounted at a rate considered appropriate given the significant inherent risks associated with similar assets. Cash flows were calculated based on projections of revenues and expenses related to the asset and were assumed to extend through a multi-year projection period. The discount rate used to value TheraSure™ test assets was approximately 12%. The projected cash flows were based on significant assumptions, including the time and resources needed to complete development of the asset, timing and reimbursement rates from CMS, regulatory approvals, if any, to commercialize the asset, estimates of the number of tests that might be performed, revenue and operating profit expected to be generated by the asset, the expected economic life of the asset, market penetration and competition, and risks associated with achieving commercialization, including delay or failure to obtain CMS and any required regulatory approval, failure of clinical trials, and intellectual property litigation.
Because the IPR&D is considered an indefinite-lived asset for accounting purposes but is not recognized for tax purposes, the fair value of the IPR&D on the acquisition date generated a DTL in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. This DTL is computed using the fair value of the IPR&D assets on the acquisition date multiplied by Oncocyte’s federal and state effective income tax rates. ASC 740 allows Oncocyte to treat acquired available DTAs, such as Chronix’s NOLs (subject to the annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code) as available DTAs to offset against the DTLs, as the DTLs are expected to reverse within the NOL carryforward period. Any excess DTAs over those DTLs would be assessed for a valuation allowance in accordance with ASC 740. This accounting treatment is acceptable if, at the time of the acquisition, Oncocyte can both reasonably estimate a timeline to commercialization and the economic useful life of the IPR&D assets upon commercialization, which will be amortized during the carryforward period of the offsetting DTAs. Oncocyte estimated and recorded a net DTL of $2.2 million after offsetting the acquired available NOLs with the IPR&D generated DTLs (see Note 8).
Contingent consideration liabilities – ASC 805 requires that contingent consideration be estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the former Chronix shareholders based on a percentage of revenues generated from TheraSure™ tests over the useful life of the assets. Accordingly, Oncocyte determined there are three types of contingent consideration in connection with the Chronix Merger: the Milestone Payments, the Royalty Payments, and Transplant Sale Payments, discussed below, which comprise the “Chronix Contingent Consideration”.
The fair value of the Milestone Payments was determined using a scenario analysis valuation method which incorporates Oncocyte’s assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achievement of the milestones defined in the Chronix Merger Agreement, credit risk, timing of the Milestone Payments and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected payments. The discount rate was estimated at approximately 9% after adjustment for the probability of achievement of the milestones.
The fair value of the Royalty Payments was determined using a single scenario analysis method. The single scenario method incorporates Oncocyte’s assumptions with respect to specified future revenues generated from TheraSure™-CNI Monitor, over its estimated useful life, taking into account credit risk and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected Royalty Payments. The credit and risk-adjusted discount rate was estimated at approximately 21%.
The fair value of the Transplant Sale Payments was determined using a single scenario analysis method. The single scenario method incorporates Oncocyte’s assumptions with respect to specified future licensing revenues generated from TheraSure™-Transplant Monitor, over its estimated useful life, taking into account credit risk and a risk-adjusted discount rate to estimate the present value of the expected Transplant Sale Payments. The credit and risk-adjusted discount rate was estimated at approximately 12%.
The fair value of the Chronix Contingent Consideration after the Chronix Merger Date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in Oncocyte’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2022, based on Oncocyte’s reassessment of the significant assumptions noted above, there was a decrease of approximately $5.0 million to the fair value of the Contingent Consideration primarily attributable to revised estimates of the timing of the possible future payouts and, accordingly, this decrease was recorded as an unrealized gain in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as of March 31, 2022.
The following table reflects the activity for Oncocyte’s Contingent Consideration since the Chronix Merger Date, measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs (in thousands):
Goodwill - Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the Aggregate Chronix Merger Consideration transferred and the values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill also includes the $2.2 million of net deferred tax liabilities recorded principally related to the TheraSure™ discussed above. Oncocyte recognized approximately $9.5 million of goodwill related to the Chronix acquisition.
None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment (see Notes 2 and 4).
Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets are not amortizable or deductible for tax purposes since these assets are not recognized for tax purposes.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Oncocyte has shares of common stock, no-par value, authorized. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Oncocyte had and shares of common stock issued and outstanding, respectively.
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had an aggregate of 1,789,076 common stock purchase warrants issued and outstanding with exercise prices ranging from $1.69 to $5.50 per warrant. The warrants will expire on various dates through October 17, 2029. Certain warrants have “cashless exercise” provisions meaning that the value of a portion of warrant shares may be used to pay the exercise price rather than payment in cash, which may be exercised under any circumstances in the case of the 2017 Bank Warrants and 2019 Bank Warrants or, in the case of certain other warrants, only if a registration statement for the warrants and underlying shares of common stock is not effective under the Securities Act or a prospectus in the registration statement is not available for the issuance of shares upon the exercise of the warrants.
Oncocyte has considered the guidance in ASC 815-40, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, which states that contracts that require or may require the issuer to settle the contract for cash are liabilities recorded at fair value, irrespective of the likelihood of the transaction occurring that triggers the net cash settlement feature. This liability classification guidance also applies to financial instruments that may require cash or other form of settlement for transactions outside of the company’s control and, in which the form of consideration to the warrant holder may not be the same as to all other shareholders in connection with the transaction. However, if a transaction is not within the company’s control but the holder of the financial instrument can solely receive the same type or form of consideration as is being offered to all the shareholders in the transaction, then equity classification of the financial instrument is not precluded, if all other applicable equity classification criteria are met. Based on the above guidance and, among other factors, the fact that the warrants cannot be cash settled under any circumstance but require share settlement, all of the outstanding warrants meet the equity classification criteria and have been classified as equity.

| Stock-Based Compensation |
Oncocyte had a 2010 Stock Option Plan (the “2010 Plan”) under which shares of common stock were authorized for the grant of stock options or the sale of restricted stock. On August 27, 2018, Oncocyte shareholders approved a new Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Incentive Plan”) to replace the 2010 Plan. In adopting the 2018 Incentive Plan, Oncocyte terminated the 2010 Plan and will not grant any additional stock options or sell any stock under restricted stock purchase agreements under the 2010 Plan; however, stock options issued under the 2010 Plan will continue in effect in accordance with their terms and the terms of the 2010 Plan until the exercise or expiration of the individual options.
In 2018, under the 2010 Plan, Oncocyte granted certain stock options with exercise prices ranging from $per share to $per share, that will vest in increments upon the attainment of specified performance conditions related to the development of DetermaDx™ and obtaining Medicare reimbursement coverage for that test (“2018 Performance-Based Options”). The Medicare reimbursement conditions will not be met as Oncocyte has determined not to pursue commercialization of DetermaDx™. Approximately stock options granted in May 2018 contain a hybrid vesting condition which vest on the earlier to occur of three years of service from the grant date or achieving a defined Performance-Based Option milestone with respect to DetermaDx™ local decision coverage. These stock options are considered to be service-based awards for financial accounting purposes with the fair value of the options being recognized in stock-based compensation expense over an effective three-year service period. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, stock-based compensation expense was recorded with regard to the Performance-Based Options due to the discontinuation of the development of DetermaDx™. As of March 31, 2022, there were 2018 Performance-Based Options outstanding.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company awarded executive share-based payment awards under the 2018 Plan to certain executive officers and employees with time-based, market-based and performance-based vesting conditions (“2022 equity awards”).
The fair value of the 2022 equity awards with performance-based vesting condition was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model assuming that performance goals will be achieved. If such performance conditions are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any recognized compensation cost is reversed. The grant-date fair value of the stock options with time-based and performance-based vesting condition granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $per option. The probability of 2022 equity awards performance-based vesting conditions will be evaluated each reporting period and the Company will true-up the amount of cumulative cost recognized for the 2022 performance-based awards at each reporting period based on the most up-to-date probability estimates. The Company will recognize the compensation expense for 2022 performance-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the respective service period for each separately vesting tranche.
The fair value of the 2022 equity awards with market-based vesting condition was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model. Assumptions and estimates utilized in the model include the risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, expected stock volatility and the estimated period to achievement of the performance and market conditions, which are subject to the achievement of the market-based goals established by the Company and the continued employment of the participant. These awards vest only to the extent that the market-based conditions are satisfied as specified in the vesting conditions. Unlike the performance-based awards, the grant date fair value and associated compensation cost of the market-based awards reflect the probability of the market condition being achieved, and the Company will recognize this compensation cost regardless of the actual achievement of the market condition. Assumptions utilized in connection with the Monte Carlo valuation technique included: estimated risk-free interest rate of percent; term of years; expected volatility of percent; and expected dividend yield of percent. The risk-free interest rate was determined based on the yields available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues. The expected stock price volatility was determined using historical volatility. The expected dividend yield was based on expectations regarding dividend payments. The total grant date fair value of the market-based awards was $.
As of March 31, 2022, shares of common stock were reserved under the 2018 Incentive Plan for the grant of stock options or the sale of restricted stock or for the settlement of hypothetical units issued with reference to common stock (“RSUs”). Oncocyte may also grant stock appreciation rights under the 2018 Incentive Plan.
The determination of stock-based compensation is inherently uncertain and subjective and involves the application of valuation models and assumptions requiring the use of judgment. If Oncocyte had made different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense and net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 may have been significantly different.
Oncocyte does not recognize deferred income taxes for incentive stock option compensation expense and records a tax deduction only when a disqualified disposition has occurred.

| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Income Taxes | 8. Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate in accordance with ASC 740-270, Income Taxes, Interim Reporting. The effective tax rate may be subject to fluctuations during the year as new information is obtained, which may affect the assumptions used to estimate the annual effective tax rate, including factors such as valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, the recognition or de-recognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, if any, and changes in or the interpretation of tax laws in jurisdictions where Oncocyte conducts business.
In connection with the Razor acquisition discussed in Note 3, a change in the acquirer’s valuation allowance that stems from the purchase of assets should be recognized as an element of the acquirer’s income tax benefit in the period of the acquisition. Accordingly, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, Oncocyte recorded a $7.6 million partial release of its valuation allowance and a corresponding income tax benefit stemming from the estimated DTLs generated by the Razor intangible asset we acquired.
Oncocyte did not record any provision or benefit for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as Oncocyte had a full valuation allowance for the periods presented.
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Other than the partial releases discussed above, Oncocyte established a full valuation allowance for all periods presented due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from its net operating loss carry-forwards and other deferred tax assets.
In December 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or Tax Act, was signed into law. The Tax Act, among other things, contains significant changes to corporate taxation, including changes to the expensing of research and development expenses for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021. The changes will not have a material impact to the Company’s provision as the Company still expects to be in a taxable loss position.

Oncocyte has certain commitments other than discussed in Note 3.
Office Lease Agreement
On December 23, 2019, Oncocyte entered into an Office Lease Agreement (the “Irvine Lease”) of a building containing approximately 26,800 square feet of rentable space located at 15 Cushing in Irvine, California (the “Premises”) that will serve as Oncocyte’s new principal executive and administrative offices and laboratory facility. Oncocyte completed the relocation of its offices to the Premises in January 2020 and subsequently constructed a laboratory at the Irvine facility to perform cancer diagnostic tests.
The Irvine Lease has an initial term of 89 calendar months (the “Term”), which commenced on June 1, 2020 (the “Commencement Date”). Oncocyte has an option to extend the Term for a period of five years (the “Extended Term”).
Oncocyte will pay base monthly rent in the amount of $61,640 during the first 12 months of the Term. Base monthly rent will increase annually, over the base monthly rent then in effect, by 3.5%. Oncocyte will be entitled to an abatement of 50% of the base monthly rent during the first ten calendar months of the Term. If the Irvine Lease is terminated based on the occurrence of an “event of default,” Oncocyte will be obligated to pay the abated rent to the lessor.
If Oncocyte exercises its option to extend the Term, the initial base monthly rent during the Extended Term will be the greater of the base monthly rent in effect during the last year of the Term or the prevailing market rate. The prevailing market rate will be determined based on annual rental rates per square foot for comparable space in the area where the Premises are located. If Oncocyte does not agree with the prevailing market rate proposed by the lessor, the rate may be determined through an appraisal process. The base monthly rent during the Extended Term shall be subject to the same annual rent adjustment as applicable for base monthly rent during the Term.
In addition to base monthly rent, Oncocyte will pay in monthly installments (a) all costs and expenses, other than certain excluded expenses, incurred by the lessor in each calendar year in connection with operating, maintaining, repairing (including replacements if repairs are not feasible or would not be effective) and managing the Premises and the building in which the Premises are located (“Expenses”), and (b) all real estate taxes and assessments on the Premises and the building in which the Premises are located, all personal property taxes for property that is owned by lessor and used in connection with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Premises, and costs and fees incurred in connection with seeking reductions in such tax liabilities (“Taxes”). Subject to certain exceptions, Expenses shall not be increased by more than 4% annually on a cumulative, compounded basis.
Oncocyte was entitled to an abatement of its obligations to pay Expenses and Taxes while constructing improvements to the Premises constituting “Tenant’s Work” under the Irvine Lease prior to the Commencement Date, except that Oncocyte was obligated to pay 43.7% of Expenses and Taxes during the period prior to the Commencement Date for its use of the second floor of the Premises, which was already built out as office space.
The lessor provided Oncocyte with a “Tenant Improvement Allowance” in the amount of $1.3 million to pay for the plan, design, permitting, and construction of the improvements constituting Tenant’s Work. The lessor retained 1.5% of the Tenant Improvement Allowance as an administrative fee as provided in the Irvine Lease. As of March 31, 2022, the lessor had provided $1.3 million of the total Tenant Improvement Allowance.
Oncocyte has provided the lessor with a security deposit in the amount of $150,000 and a letter of credit in the amount of $1.7 million. The lessor may apply the security deposit, in whole or in part, for the payment of rent and any other amount that Oncocyte is or becomes obligated to pay under the Irvine Lease but fails to pay when due and beyond any cure period. The lessor may draw on the letter of credit from time to time to pay any amount that is unpaid and due, or if the original issuing bank notifies the lessor that the letter of credit will not be renewed or extended for the period required under the Irvine Lease and Oncocyte fails to timely provide a replacement letter of credit, or an event of default under the Irvine Lease occurs and continues beyond the applicable cure period, or if certain insolvency or bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to Oncocyte occur. Oncocyte is required to restore any portion of the security deposit that is applied by the lessor to payments due under the Irvine Lease, and Oncocyte is required to restore the amount available under the letter of credit to the required amount if any portion of the letter of credit is drawn by the lessor. Commencing on the 34th month of the Term, (a) the amount of the letter of credit that Oncocyte is required to maintain shall be reduced on a monthly basis, in equal installments, to amortize the required amount to zero at the end of the Term, and (b) Oncocyte will have the right to cancel the letter of credit at any time if it meets certain market capitalization and balance sheets thresholds; provided, in each case, that Oncocyte is not in then default under the Irvine Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period and the lessor has not determined that an event exists that would lead to an event of default.
To obtain the letter of credit, Oncocyte has provided the issuing bank with a restricted cash deposit that the bank will hold to cover its obligation to pay any draws on the letter of credit by the lessor. The restricted cash may not be used for any other purpose.
On August 27, 2021, Oncocyte entered into a lease agreement to add an additional suite to its Nashville office space, containing approximately 1,928 square feet of rentable space located at 2 International Plaza, Suite 103, Nashville TN. The term of the lease commences on October 1, 2021 and extends through April 9, 2024 and will serve as additional office space for Insight Genetics’s operations.
Application of leasing standard, ASC 842
The Irvine Lease is an operating lease under ASC 842 included in the tables below. The tables below provide the amounts recorded in connection with the application of ASC 842 as of, and during, the three months ended March 31, 2022, for Oncocyte’s operating and financing leases (see Note 2).
Under the Laboratory Agreement discussed in Note 3, Oncocyte assumed all of Razor’s Laboratory Agreement payment obligations. Although Oncocyte is not a party to any lease agreement with Razor or Encore, under the terms of the Laboratory Agreement, Oncocyte received the landlord’s consent for the use of the laboratory at Razor’s Brisbane, California location (the “Brisbane Facility”) under the terms of a sublease to which Encore is the sublessee. The sublease expires on March 31, 2023 (the “Brisbane Lease”). The laboratory fee payments to Encore include both laboratory services and the use of the Brisbane Facility. Under the provisions of the Laboratory Agreement, if Oncocyte terminates the Laboratory Agreement prior to the expiration of the Brisbane Lease, Oncocyte shall assume the costs related to the subletting or early termination of the Brisbane Lease. If the Laboratory Agreement were to be terminated on March 31, 2022, the aggregate payments due to the landlord for early cancellation of the Brisbane Lease would be approximately $156,000 (aggregate payments from April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2023). Oncocyte determined that the Laboratory Agreement contains an embedded operating lease for the Brisbane Facility, and Oncocyte allocated the aggregate payments to this lease component for purposes of calculating the net present value of the right-of-use asset and liability as of the inception of the Laboratory Agreement in accordance with ASC 842, as shown in the table below.
Financing lease
As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte has one financing lease remaining through December 2023 for certain laboratory equipment with aggregate remaining payments of $217,000 shown in the table below. Oncocyte’s lease obligations are collateralized by the equipment financed under the lease schedule.
Operating and Financing leases
The following table presents supplemental cash flow information related to operating and financing leases for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):
The following table presents supplemental balance sheets information related to operating and financing leases as of March 31, 2022 (in thousands, except lease term and discount rate):
Future minimum lease commitments are as follows (in thousands):
Litigation – General
Oncocyte will be subject to various claims and contingencies in the ordinary course of its business, including those related to litigation, business transactions, employee-related matters, and other matters. When Oncocyte 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, Oncocyte will record a liability for the loss. If the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, Oncocyte discloses the claim if the likelihood of a potential loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved could be material.
Tax Filings
Oncocyte tax filings are subject to audit by taxing authorities in jurisdictions where it conducts business. These audits may result in assessments of additional taxes that are subsequently resolved with the authorities or potentially through the courts. Management believes Oncocyte has adequately provided for any ultimate amounts that are likely to result from these audits; however, final assessments, if any, could be significantly different than the amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Employment Contracts
Oncocyte has entered into employment and severance benefit contracts with certain executive officers. Under the provisions of the contracts, Oncocyte may be required to incur severance obligations for matters relating to changes in control, as defined, and certain terminations of executives. As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte accrued approximately $2.3 million in severance obligations for certain executive officers, in accordance with the severance benefit provisions of their respective employment and severance benefit agreements, related to Oncocyte’s acquisition of Chronix Biomedical Inc. in 2021.
Indemnification
In the normal course of business, Oncocyte may provide indemnification of varying scope under Oncocyte’s agreements with other companies or consultants, typically Oncocyte’s clinical research organizations, investigators, clinical sites, suppliers and others. Pursuant to these agreements, Oncocyte will generally agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse the indemnified parties for losses and expenses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties arising from claims of third parties in connection with the use or testing of Oncocyte’s diagnostic tests. Indemnification provisions could also cover third party infringement claims with respect to patent rights, copyrights, or other intellectual property pertaining to Oncocyte’s diagnostic tests. Oncocyte’s office and laboratory facility leases also will generally contain indemnification obligations, including obligations for indemnification of the lessor for environmental law matters and injuries to persons or property of others, arising from Oncocyte’s use or occupancy of the leased property. The term of these indemnification agreements will generally continue in effect after the termination or expiration of the particular research, development, services, lease, or license agreement to which they relate. The Purchase Agreement also contains provisions under which Oncocyte has agreed to indemnify Razor and Encore from losses and expenses resulting from breaches or inaccuracy of Oncocyte’s representations and warranties and breaches or nonfulfillment of Oncocyte’s covenants, agreements, and obligations under the Purchase Agreement. Oncocyte periodically enters into underwriting and securities sales agreements with broker-dealers in connection with the offer and sale of Oncocyte securities. The terms of those underwriting and securities sales agreements include indemnification provisions pursuant to which Oncocyte agrees to indemnify the broker-dealers from certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act, in connection with the offer and sale of Oncocyte securities. The potential future payments Oncocyte could be required to make under these indemnification agreements will generally not be subject to any specified maximum amounts. Historically, Oncocyte has not been subject to any claims or demands for indemnification. Oncocyte also maintains various liability insurance policies that limit Oncocyte’s financial exposure. As a result, Oncocyte management believes that the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Accordingly, Oncocyte has not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Amended Loan Agreement
On October 17, 2019, Oncocyte entered into a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amended Loan Agreement”) with the Bank pursuant to which Oncocyte obtained a new $ million secured credit facility (“Tranche 1”), a portion of which was used to repay the remaining balance of approximately $ on outstanding loans from the Bank, plus a final payment of $, under the February 21, 2017 Loan Agreement. The credit line under the Amended Loan Agreement may be increased by an additional $ million (“Tranche 2”) if Oncocyte obtains at least $ million of additional equity capital, as was the case with the original Loan Agreement, and a positive final coverage determination is received from CMS for DetermaRxTM at a specified minimum price point per test (the “Tranche 2 Milestone”), and Oncocyte is not in default under the Amended Loan Agreement. As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had satisfied the Tranche 2 Milestone and was eligible to borrow the $2 million Tranche 2 funds. However, Oncocyte has not yet borrowed any funds under Tranche 2.
Payments of interest only on the principal balance were due monthly from the draw date through March 31, 2020, followed by 24 monthly payments of principal and interest, but the Bank has agreed to a deferral of principal payments, as discussed below. The outstanding principal balance of the loan will bear interest at a stated floating annual interest equal to the greater of (a) the prime rate or (b) % per annum. As of March 31, 2022, the latest published prime rate was 3.25% per annum.
On April 2, 2020, as part of the Bank’s COVID-19 pandemic relief program, Oncocyte and the Bank entered into a Loan Deferral Agreement (“Loan Deferral”) with respect to the Amended Loan Agreement. Under the Loan Deferral Agreement, the Bank agreed to (i) extend the scheduled maturity date of the Amended Loan Agreement from March 31, 2022 to September 30, 2022, and (ii) deferred the principal payments by an additional 6 months whereby payments of interest only on the Bank loan principal balance will be due monthly from May 1, 2020 through October 1, 2020, followed by 23 monthly payments of principal and interest beginning on November 1, 2020, all provided at no additional fees to Oncocyte. No other terms of the Amended Loan Agreement were changed or modified. The Loan Deferral was accounted for as a modification of debt in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments, thus there was no gain or loss recognized on the transaction.
At maturity of the loan, Oncocyte will also pay the Bank an additional final payment fee of $200,000, which was recorded as a deferred financing charge in October 2019 and is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. As of March 31, 2022, the unamortized deferred financing cost was $5,000.
Oncocyte may prepay in full the outstanding principal balance at any time, subject to a prepayment fee equal to 2.0% of the outstanding principal balance if prepaid more than one year but less than two years after October 17, 2019, or 1.0% of the outstanding principal balance if prepaid two years or more after October 17, 2019. Any amounts borrowed and repaid may not be reborrowed.
The outstanding principal amount of the loan, with interest accrued, the final payment fee, and the prepayment fee may become due and payable prior to the applicable maturity date if an “Event of Default” as defined in the Amended Loan Agreement occurs. Oncocyte’s obligations under the Amended Loan Agreement are collateralized by substantially all its assets other than intellectual property such as patents and trade secrets that Oncocyte owns. Accordingly, if an Event of Default were to occur and not be cured, the Bank could foreclose on its security interest in the collateral. Oncocyte was in compliance with the Amended Loan Agreement as of the filing date of this Report.
Bank Warrants
In 2017, in connection with the Loan Agreement, Oncocyte issued common stock purchase warrants to the Bank (the “2017 Bank Warrants”) entitling the Bank to purchase shares of Oncocyte common stock in tranches related to the loan tranches under the Loan Agreement. In conjunction with the availability of the loan, the Bank was issued warrants to purchase 8,247 shares of Oncocyte common stock at an exercise price of $4.85 per share, through February 21, 2027. On March 23, 2017, the Bank was issued warrants to purchase an additional 7,321 shares at an exercise price of $5.46 per share, through March 23, 2027. The Bank may elect to exercise the 2017 Bank Warrants on a “cashless exercise” basis and receive a number of shares determined by multiplying the number of shares for which the applicable tranche is being exercised by (A) the excess of the fair market value of the common stock over the applicable exercise price, divided by (B) the fair market value of the common stock. The fair market value of the common stock will be the last closing or sale price on a national securities exchange, inter-dealer quotation system, or over-the-counter market.
On October 17, 2019, in conjunction with Tranche 1 becoming available under the Amended Loan Agreement, Oncocyte issued a common stock purchase warrant to the Bank (the “2019 Bank Warrant”) entitling the Bank to purchase 98,574 shares of Oncocyte common stock at the initial “Warrant Price” of $1.69 per share through October 17, 2029. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the 2019 Bank Warrant will increase on the date of each draw, if any, on Tranche 2. The number of additional shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the 2019 Bank Warrant will be equal to % of Oncocyte’s fully diluted equity outstanding for each $ million draw under Tranche 2. The Warrant Price for Tranche 2 warrant shares will be determined upon each draw of Tranche 2 funds and will be closing price of Oncocyte common stock on the NYSE American or other applicable market on the date immediately before the applicable date on which Oncocyte borrows funds under Tranche 2. The Bank may elect to exercise the 2019 Bank Warrant on a “cashless exercise” basis and receive a number of shares determined by multiplying the number of shares for which the 2019 Bank Warrant is being exercised by (A) the excess of the fair market value of the common stock over the applicable Warrant Price, divided by (B) the fair market value of the common stock. The fair market value of the common stock will be last closing or sale price on a national securities exchange, interdealer quotation system, or over-the-counter market. As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte has not yet borrowed any funds under Tranche 2.

| Co-Development Agreement with Life Technologies Corporation | 13. Co-Development Agreement with Life Technologies Corporation
On January 13, 2022, Oncocyte entered into a Collaboration Agreement (the “LTC Agreement”) with Life Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of Thermo Fisher Scientific (“LTC” and together with Oncocyte, the “Parties” or individually, a “Party”), in order to partner in the development and collaborate in the commercialization of Thermo Fisher Scientific’s existing Oncomine Comprehensive Assay Plus (“OCA Plus”) and Oncocyte’s Determa IO assay for use with LTC’s Ion TorrentTM GenexusTM Integrated Sequencer and LTC’s Ion TorrentTM GenexusTM Purification System (“Genexus system”) in order to obtain in vitro diagnostic (“IVD”) regulatory approval.
Development
Under the terms of the LTC Agreement, Oncocyte will clinically validate LTC’s OCA Plus assay, which is LTC’s proprietary NGS-based assay designed to be run on the Genexus system as an IVD assay (the “Collaboration LTC Product”) and Oncocyte’s Determa IO assay, which is a multivariate gene expression test performed on FFPE biopsy specimens, as an IVD assay run on the Genexus system (the “Collaboration Determa Product”), paving the way toward regulatory approval for use in tumor profiling and guidance of therapy selection for solid tumor cancers in humans. LTC retains the exclusive right to partner with therapeutics companies to develop the Collaboration LTC Product as a companion diagnostic. Oncocyte retains the exclusive right to partner with therapeutics companies to develop the Collaboration Determa Product as a companion diagnostic. All development work will be conducted pursuant to development plans agreed by the Parties through a series of governance committees that will oversee the collaboration.
Costs Associated with Product Development
Oncocyte will be responsible for all costs associated with Oncocyte activities under the LTC product development budget. Oncocyte and LTC will share development costs associated with LTC activities under the LTC product development budget. LTC will be responsible for costs associated with the performance of research and development activities for the RUO-labeled OCA Plus and related components as is necessary to enable the development of the Collaboration LTC Product as contemplated by the LTC product development plan. Oncocyte will be responsible for all costs associated with activities of both Parties under the Determa product development budget. LTC will be responsible, at LTC’s own cost, for the performance of research and development activities for the RUO-labeled OCA Plus and related components as is necessary to enable the development of the Collaboration LTC Product as contemplated by the development plan for the Collaboration LTC Product.
Commercialization
LTC will be responsible for the commercialization of the Collaboration LTC Product throughout the world, but the Parties will co-market it in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, European Union, Switzerland, Australia, and New Zealand (the “LTC Product Territory”). Oncocyte will be responsible for the commercialization of the Collaboration Determa Product in the United States (the “Determa Product Territory”), and LTC will be responsible for commercializing it in the rest of the world. All commercialization activities for the Collaboration LTC Product and the Collaboration Determa Product will be conducted pursuant to commercialization plans agreed by the Parties through the collaboration’s governance committees.
Economic Terms
Under the LTC Agreement, LTC will pay Oncocyte a percentage of revenue received by LTC on sales of the Collaboration LTC Product throughout the world and on sales of the Collaboration Determa Product outside the United States. The revenue share percentage for the Collaboration LTC Product will vary based on the timing of the sale, the territory of the sale, and the degree to which consumables, reagents, and other products are included in the kit being sold, but the Company estimates that the average revenue share percentage that it will receive under the LTC Agreement will likely range from the low teens to the low twenties. The revenue share percentage LTC will pay to Oncocyte on sales of the Collaboration Determa Product will vary based on the timing of the sale, and the degree to which consumables, reagents, and other products are included in the kit being sold, but the Company estimates that the average revenue share that it will receive under the LTC Agreement will likely range in the low twenties. Oncocyte will pay LTC a mid single-digit percentage of its revenue on sales of the Collaboration Determa Product in the United States.

Underwritten Offering
On April 13, 2022, Oncocyte entered into the Underwriting Agreement with BTIG as representative of the Underwriters, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Underwriters in the April 2022 Offering an aggregate of shares of common stock, no par value per share of the Company, and 26,266,417 April 2022 Warrants to purchase up to 13,133,208.5 shares of common stock. Each share of common stock and the accompanying April 2022 Warrant was sold at a combined offering price of $, representing an offering price of $per share of common stock and $0.01 per accompanying April 2022 Warrant, before underwriting discounts and commissions.
Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company also granted to the Underwriters an over-allotment option, exercisable in whole or in part at any time for a period of 30 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement, to purchase up to an additional shares of common stock and 3,939,962 April 2022 Warrants to purchase 1,969,981 shares of common stock to cover over-allotments, if any. The over-allotment option may be exercised separately for shares of common stock at a price to the underwriters of $per share, and April 2022 Warrants at a price of $0.01 per April 2022 Warrant. On April 14, 2022, the Underwriters exercised their option to purchase the April 2022 Warrants pursuant to the over-allotment option. The Underwriters retain their option to purchase up to an additional shares of common stock during the 30-day over-allotment option period.
The Company received net proceeds of approximately $32.8 million from the April 2022 Offering, which includes the April 2022 Warrants sold upon the exercise of the Underwriters’ overallotment option. The April 2022 Offering closed on April 19, 2022.
The April 2022 Offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-256650) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 28, 2021 and declared effective by the SEC on June 8, 2021, and an accompanying prospectus dated June 8, 2021 as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated April 13, 2022.
Series A Preferred Stock Offering
On April 13, 2022, Oncocyte entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with institutional accredited investors, including Broadwood (the “Investors”) in a registered direct offering of shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into a total of shares of our common stock, at a conversion price of $1.53. The purchase price of each share of Series A Preferred Stock was $850, which included an original issue discount to the stated value of $1,000 per share. The rights, preferences and privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock are set forth in our Certificate of Determination of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Determination”), which we will file with the Secretary of State of the State of California. The closing of the offering of Series A Preferred Stock will occur in two equal tranches of $5,000,000 each for aggregate gross proceeds from both closings of $10,000,000. The first closing will occur on the later of (i) the second (2nd) trading day following the execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement and (ii) the second (2nd) trading day following the date that the Secretary of State accepts the Certificate of Determination. The second closing will occur on the earlier of (a) the second (2nd) trading day following the date that Oncocyte receives notice from an Investor to accelerate the second closing and (b) a date selected by us on or after October 8, 2022 and on or prior to March 8, 2023.
The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of common stock at any time at the holder’s option. The conversion price will be subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments for matters such as stock splits, stock dividends and other distributions on common stock, and recapitalizations. The holder will be prohibited from converting shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of common stock if, as a result of such conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would own more than % of the shares of common stock then issued and outstanding (provided a holder may elect, at the first closing, to increase such beneficial ownership limitation solely as to itself up to 19.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the conversion). Oncocyte may force the conversion of up to one-third of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock originally issued, subject to customary equity conditions, if the daily volume weighted average price of our common stock for 20 out of 30 trading days exceeds 140% of the conversion price and on 20 out of the same 30 trading days the daily trading volume equals or exceeds 400,000 shares of our common stock. Oncocyte may only effect one forced conversion during any 30-trading day period.
In the event of the Company’s liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, holders of Series A Preferred Stock will receive a payment equal to the stated value of the Series A Preferred Stock plus accrued but unpaid dividends and any other amounts that may have become payable on the Series A Preferred Stock due to any failure or delay that may have occurred in issuing shares of common stock upon conversion of a portion of the Series A Preferred Stock, before any distribution or payment to the holders of common stock or any of Oncocyte’s other junior equity.
Shares of Series A Preferred Stock will generally have no voting rights, except as required by law and except that the consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock will be required to amend any provision of our certificate of incorporation that would have a materially adverse effect on the rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. Additionally, as long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, unless the holders of at least 51% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have otherwise given prior written consent, we, on a consolidated basis with our subsidiaries, are not permitted to (1) have less than $8 million of unrestricted, unencumbered cash on hand (“Cash Minimum Requirement”); (2) other than certain permitted indebtedness, incur indebtedness to the extent that our aggregate indebtedness exceeds $15 million; (3) enter into any agreement (including any indenture, credit agreement or other debt instrument) that by its terms prohibits, prevents, or otherwise limits our ability to pay dividends on, or redeem, the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Determination; or (4) authorize or issue any class or series of preferred stock or other capital stock of the Company that ranks senior or pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock.
Shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive cumulative dividends at a rate per share (as a percentage of stated value) of 6% per annum, payable quarterly in cash or, at our option, by accreting such dividends to the stated value.
We are required to redeem, for cash, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock on the earlier to occur of (1) April 8, 2024, (2) the commencement of certain a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, receivership, or similar proceedings against us or our assets, (3) a Change of Control Transaction (as defined herein) and (4) at the election and upon notice of 51% in interest of the holders, if we fail to meet the Cash Minimum Requirement. A “Change of Control Transaction” means the occurrence of any of (a) an acquisition by an individual or legal entity or “group” (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act) of effective control (whether through legal or beneficial ownership of capital stock of the Company, by contract or otherwise) of in excess of 50% of the voting securities of the Company (other than by means of conversion of Series A Preferred Stock), (b) the Company merges into or consolidates with any other person, or any person merges into or consolidates with the Company and, after giving effect to such transaction, the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction own less than 50% of the aggregate voting power of the Company or the successor entity of such transaction, or (c) the Company sells or transfers all or substantially all of its assets to another person. Additionally, we have the right to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock for cash upon 30 days prior notice to the holders; provided if we undertake a capital raise in connection with such redemption, the Investors will have the right to participate in such financing.
The issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock was completed pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-256650), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 28, 2021 and declared effective by the SEC on June 8, 2021, and an accompanying prospectus dated June 8, 2021 as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated April 13, 2022. |

| Basis of presentation | Basis of presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements presented herein, and discussed below, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In accordance with those rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in comprehensive consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in Oncocyte’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

| Principles of consolidation | Principles of consolidation
On January 31, 2020, with the consummation of the Insight Merger, Insight became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Insight’s operations and results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3). On February 24, 2021, with the acquisition of the remaining equity interests in Razor, Razor became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Razor’s results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3). On April 15, 2021, with the acquisition of Chronix, Chronix became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncocyte, and on that date Oncocyte began consolidating Chronix’s operations and results with Oncocyte’s operations and results (see Note 3).
The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of Oncocyte’s financial condition and results of operations. The condensed consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Use of estimates | Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates estimates which are subject to significant judgment, including, but not limited to, valuation methods used, assumptions requiring the use of judgment to prepare financial projections, timing of potential commercialization of acquired in-process intangible assets, applicable discount rates, probabilities of the likelihood of multiple outcomes of certain events related to contingent consideration, comparable companies or transactions, determination of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed including those relating to contingent consideration, revenue recognition, assumptions related to going concern assessments, allocation of direct and indirect expenses, useful lives associated with long-lived intangible assets, key assumptions in operating and financing leases including incremental borrowing rates, loss contingencies, valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, and assumptions used to value debt and stock-based awards and other equity instruments. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.
Similarly, Oncocyte assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to, Oncocyte’s equity investments, the carrying value of goodwill, acquired in-process intangible assets and other long-lived assets. Those assessments as well as other estimates referenced above were made in the context of information reasonably available to Oncocyte.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Business combinations and fair value measurements | Business combinations and fair value measurements
Oncocyte accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, which requires the purchase consideration transferred to be measured at fair value on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC 820 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and expands on required disclosures about fair value measurement. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
● Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
● Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
● Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
When a part of the purchase consideration consists of shares of Oncocyte common stock, Oncocyte calculates the purchase price attributable to those shares, a Level 1 security, by determining the fair value of those shares as of the acquisition date based on prices quoted on the principal national securities exchange on which the shares traded. Oncocyte recognizes estimated fair values of the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development, and liabilities assumed, including any contingent consideration, as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is recognized as any amount of the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in excess of the consideration transferred. ASC 805 precludes the recognition of an assembled workforce as an asset, effectively subsuming any assembled workforce value into goodwill.
In determining fair value, Oncocyte utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, and also considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. For the periods presented, Oncocyte has no financial assets or liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, except for cash and cash equivalents consisting of money market funds and marketable equity securities of Lineage and AgeX common stock held by Oncocyte described below. These assets are measured at fair value using the period-end quoted market prices as a Level 1 input. Oncocyte also has certain contingent consideration liabilities which are carried at fair value based on Level 3 inputs (see Note 3).
The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair values because of the short-term nature of these items.
The carrying amount of the loan payable to Silicon Valley Bank approximates fair value because the loan bears interest at a floating market rate (see Note 12).

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Goodwill and intangible assets | Goodwill and intangible assets
In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) projects acquired in a business combination that are not complete as of the acquisition date are capitalized and accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets until completion or abandonment of the related research and development efforts. Upon successful completion of the project, the capitalized amount is amortized over its estimated useful life. If a project is abandoned, all remaining capitalized amounts are written off immediately. Oncocyte considers various factors and risks for potential impairment of IPR&D assets, including the current legal and regulatory environment and the competitive landscape. Adverse clinical trial results, significant delays or inability to obtain local determination coverage (“LCD”) from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) for Medicare reimbursement for a diagnostic test, the inability to bring a diagnostic test to market and the introduction or advancement of competitors’ diagnostic tests could result in partial or full impairment of the related intangible assets. Consequently, the eventual realized value of the IPR&D project may vary from its fair value at the date of acquisition, and IPR&D impairment charges may occur in future periods. During the period between completion or abandonment, the IPR&D assets will not be amortized but will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if Oncocyte becomes aware of any events occurring or changes in circumstances that would indicate a reduction in the fair value of the IPR&D projects below their respective carrying amounts (see Notes 3 and 4).
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net identifiable assets and liabilities. Goodwill, similar to IPR&D, is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually, or if circumstances indicate its value may no longer be recoverable. Qualitative factors considered in this assessment include industry and market conditions, overall financial performance, and other relevant events and factors affecting Oncocyte’s business. Based on the qualitative assessment, if it is determined that the fair value of goodwill is more likely than not to be less than its carrying amount, the fair value of a reporting unit will be calculated and compared with its carrying amount and an impairment charge will be recognized for the amount that the carrying value exceeds the fair value. Oncocyte continues to operate in one segment and considered to be the sole reporting unit and, therefore, goodwill is tested for impairment at the enterprise level.
Oncocyte does not have intangible assets with indefinite useful lives other than goodwill and the acquired IPR&D discussed in Notes 3 and 4. As of March 31, 2022, there has been no impairment of goodwill and intangible assets.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Long-lived intangible assets | Long-lived intangible assets
Long-lived intangible assets, consisting primarily of acquired customer relationships, are stated at acquired cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 5 years (see Notes 3 and 4).
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Contingent consideration liabilities | Contingent consideration liabilities
Certain of Oncocyte’s asset and business acquisitions involve the potential for future payment of consideration to third-parties and former selling shareholders in amounts determined as a percentage of future net revenues generated, or upon attainment of revenue milestones, from Pharma Services or LDTs, as applicable, or annual minimum royalties to certain licensors, as provided in the applicable agreements. The fair value of such liabilities is determined using unobservable inputs. These inputs include the estimated amount and timing of projected cash flows and the risk-adjusted discount rate used to present value the cash flows (see Notes 3 and 4). These obligations are referred to as contingent consideration.
ASC 805 requires that contingent consideration be estimated and recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date as part of the total consideration transferred. Contingent consideration is an obligation of the acquirer to transfer additional assets or equity interests to the selling shareholders in the future if certain future events occur or conditions are met, such as the attainment of product development milestones. Contingent consideration also includes additional future payments to selling shareholders based on achievement of components of earnings, such as “earn-out” provisions or percentage of future revenues, including royalties paid to the selling shareholders based on a percentage of certain revenues generated.
The fair value of contingent consideration after the acquisition date is reassessed by Oncocyte as changes in circumstances and conditions occur, with the subsequent change in fair value recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Changes in key assumptions can materially affect the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and, accordingly, the resulting gain or loss that Oncocyte records in its condensed consolidated interim financial statements. See Notes 3 and 4 for a full discussion of these liabilities.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Investments in capital stock of privately held companies | Investments in capital stock of privately held companies
Oncocyte evaluates whether investments held in common stock of other companies require consolidation of the company under, first, the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model, and then under the voting interest model in accordance with accounting guidance for consolidations under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10. If consolidation of the entity is not required under either the VIE model or the voting interest model, Oncocyte determines whether the equity method of accounting should be applied in accordance with ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. The equity method applies to investments in common stock or in-substance common stock if Oncocyte exercises significant influence over, but does not control, the entity, where significant influence is typically represented by ownership of 20% or more, but less than majority ownership, of the voting interests of a company.
Oncocyte initially records equity method investments at fair value on the date of the acquisition with subsequent adjustments to the investment balance based on Oncocyte’s pro rata share of earnings or losses from the investment.
Since February 24, 2021, the date of Oncocyte’s acquisition of the remaining interests in Razor, the Razor entity’s financial statements have been consolidated with Oncocyte (see Notes 3 and 4).
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Impairment of long-lived assets | Impairment of long-lived assets
Oncocyte assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that such assets might be impaired and the carrying value may not be recoverable. Oncocyte’s long-lived assets consist primarily of intangible assets, right-of-use assets for operating leases, customer relationships, and machinery and equipment. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and the expected undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value, is recorded. As of March 31, 2022, there has been no impairment of long-lived assets.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Revenue recognition | Revenue recognition
Effective on January 1, 2020, Oncocyte adopted the revenue recognition standard ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC) 606. Pursuant to ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of services performed is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration Oncocyte expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. ASC 606 provides for a five-step model that includes:
(i) identifying the contract with a customer, (ii) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Oncocyte determines transaction prices based on the amount of consideration we expect to receive for transferring the promised goods or services in the contract. Consideration may be fixed, variable, or a combination of both. We consider any constraints on the variable consideration and include in the transaction price variable consideration to the extent it is deemed probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
DetermaRx™ testing revenue
Oncocyte generates revenue from performing DetermaRx™ tests on clinical samples through orders received from physicians, hospitals, and other healthcare providers. In determining whether all the revenue recognition criteria (i) through (v) above are met with respect to DetermaRx™ tests, each test result is considered a single performance obligation and is generally considered complete when the test result is delivered or made available to the prescribing physician electronically, and, as such, there are no shipping or handling fees incurred by Oncocyte or billed to customers. Although Oncocyte bills a list price for all tests ordered and completed for all payer types, Oncocyte considers constraints on the variable consideration when recognizing revenue for DetermaRx™. Because DetermaRx™ is a novel test and there are no current reimbursement arrangements with third-party payers other than Medicare, the transaction price represents variable consideration. Application of the constraint for variable consideration is an area that requires significant judgment. For all payers other than Medicare, Oncocyte must consider the novelty of the test, the uncertainty of receiving payment, or being subject to claims for a refund, from payers with whom it does not have a sufficient payment collection history or contractual reimbursement agreements. Accordingly, for those payers, Oncocyte expects to continue to recognize revenue upon payment until it has a sufficient history to reliably estimate payment patterns or has contractual reimbursement arrangements, or both, in place. In September 2020, Oncocyte received a final pricing decision for DetermaRx™ from CMS, and with Medicare coverage in effect, Oncocyte commenced recognizing revenue when DetermaRx™ tests are performed for Medicare patients, or when payment was approved by Medicare in the case of certain tests performed prior to September 2020.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, after accumulating additional history of cash receipts and other factors considered by management for Medicare Advantage covered tests, including the recently published Medicare rate which management believes entitles Oncocyte to get reimbursed for Medicare Advantage covered tests at the Medicare rate, Oncocyte commenced recognizing Medicare Advantage covered tests on an accrual basis, upon considering no further constraints on the variable consideration, at the Medicare rate.
As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had accounts receivable of $1.5 million from Medicare and Medicare Advantage covered DetermaRx™ tests (see Note 7). As of December 31, 2021, Oncocyte had accounts receivable of $1.1 million from Medicare covered DetermaRx™ tests.
Pharma services revenue
Revenues recognized include Pharma Services performed by Oncocyte’s Insight and Chronix subsidiaries for its pharmaceutical customers, including testing for biomarker discovery, assay design and development, clinical trial support, and a broad spectrum of biomarker tests. These Pharma Services are generally performed under individual scope of work (“SOW”) arrangements or license agreements (together with SOW the “Pharma Services Agreements”) with specific deliverables defined by the customer. Pharma Services are performed on a (i) time and materials basis or (ii) per test completed basis. Upon completion of the service to the customer in accordance with a Pharma Services Agreement, Oncocyte has the right to bill the customer for the agreed upon price (either on a per test or per deliverable basis) and recognizes Pharma Service revenue at that time. Insight identifies each sale of its Pharma Service offering as a single performance obligation. Chronix identifies the processing of test samples as a separate performance obligation (considered a series) within license agreements with customers.
Completion of the service and satisfaction of the performance obligation is typically evidenced by access to the report or test made available to the customer or any other form or applicable manner of delivery defined in the Pharma Services Agreements. However, for certain SOWs under which work is performed pursuant to the customer’s highly customized specifications, Oncocyte has the enforceable right to bill the customer for work completed, rather than upon completion of the SOW. For those SOWs, Oncocyte recognizes revenue over a period during which the work is performed using a formula that accounts for expended efforts, generally measured in labor hours, as a percentage of total estimated efforts for the completion of the SOW. As performance obligations are satisfied under the Pharma Services Agreements, any amounts earned as revenue and billed to the customer are included in accounts receivable. Any revenues earned but not yet billed to the customer as of the date of Oncocyte’s consolidated financial statements are recorded as contract assets and are included in prepaids and other current assets as of the financial statement date. Amounts recorded in contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable in Oncocyte’s consolidated financial statements when the customer is invoiced according to the billing schedule in the contract.
Oncocyte establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the evaluation of the collectability of its Pharma Services accounts receivables after considering a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, significant events that may impair the customer’s ability to pay, such as a bankruptcy filing or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position, reasonable and supportable forecast that affect the collectability of the reported amount, and historical experience. If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables would be further adjusted. Oncocyte continuously monitors collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses and uncollectible accounts, if any, based upon its historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. Amounts determined to be uncollectible are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte has not recorded any losses or allowance for doubtful accounts on its account receivables from Pharma Services.
As of March 31, 2022, Oncocyte had accounts receivable from Pharma Services customers of $0.6 million, as compared to $0.4 million as of December 31, 2021 (see Note 7).
Licensing revenue
Revenues recognized includes licensing revenue derived from agreements with customers for exclusive rights to market Oncocyte’s proprietary testing technology. Under the agreements, Oncocyte grants exclusive rights to certain trademarks and technology of Oncocyte for the purpose of marketing Oncocyte’s tests within a defined geographic territory. A license agreement may specify milestone deliverables or performance obligations, for which Oncocyte recognizes revenue when its licensee confirms the completion of Oncocyte’s performance obligation. A licensing agreement may also include ongoing sales support from Oncocyte and typically includes non-refundable licensing fees and per-test Pharma Services revenues discussed above, for which Oncocyte treats the licensing of the technology, trademarks, and ongoing support as a single performance obligation satisfied by the passage of time over the term of the agreement.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cost of revenues | Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues generally consists of cost of materials, direct labor including benefits, bonus and stock-based compensation, equipment and infrastructure expenses, clinical sample related costs associated with performing DetermaRx™ tests and Pharma Services, providing deliverables according to our licensing agreements, license fees due to third parties, and amortization of acquired intangible assets such as the Razor asset and customer relationship intangible assets. Infrastructure expenses include depreciation of laboratory equipment, allocated rent costs, leasehold improvements, and allocated information technology costs for operations at Oncocyte’s CLIA laboratories in California and Tennessee. Costs associated with generating the revenues are recorded as the tests or services are performed regardless of whether revenue was recognized. Royalties or revenue share payments for licensed technology calculated as a percentage of revenues generated using the associated technology are recorded as expenses at the time the related revenues are recognized.

| Research and development expenses | Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses are comprised of costs incurred to develop technology, which include salaries and benefits (including stock-based compensation), laboratory expenses (including reagents and supplies used in research and development laboratory work), infrastructure expenses (including allocated facility occupancy costs), and contract services and other outside costs. Indirect research and development expenses are allocated primarily based on headcount, as applicable, and include rent and utilities, common area maintenance, telecommunications, property taxes, and insurance. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

| Net loss per common share |
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive.
All common stock equivalents are antidilutive because Oncocyte reported a net loss for all periods presented. Accordingly, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share of common stock for the periods presented (in thousands):

| Leases | Leases
Oncocyte accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. Oncocyte determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases are classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Under the available practical expedients for the adoption of ASC 842, Oncocyte accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Oncocyte recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than twelve months in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, Oncocyte uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Oncocyte uses the implicit rate when it is readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that Oncocyte will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating leases are included as right-of-use assets in machinery and equipment, and ROU lease liabilities, current and long-term, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Financing leases are included in machinery and equipment, and in financing lease liabilities, current and long-term, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Oncocyte discloses the amortization of our ROU assets and operating lease payments as a net amount, “Amortization of right-of-use assets and liabilities”, on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Based on the available practical expedients under the standard, Oncocyte elected not to capitalize leases that have terms of twelve months or less.
During 2020 and 2021, Oncocyte entered into various operating leases and an embedded operating lease in accordance with ASC 842 discussed in Note 10. Oncocyte’s accounting for financing leases remained substantially unchanged.

| Accounting for Lineage and AgeX shares of common stock |
Oncocyte accounts for the shares of Lineage and AgeX common stock it holds as marketable equity securities in accordance with ASC 320-10-25, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, as amended by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01, Financial Instruments–Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, as the shares have a readily determinable fair value quoted on the NYSE American and are held principally to meet future working capital purposes, as necessary. The securities are measured at fair value, with related gains and losses in the value of such securities recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in other income (expense), and are reported as current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the closing trading price of the security as of the date being presented.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Oncocyte held and shares of common stock of Lineage and AgeX, respectively, as marketable equity securities with a combined fair market value of $0.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

| Deferred revenue | Deferred revenue
In June 2018 and subsequently amended in June 2019, Chronix and a medical diagnostic service company in Germany (“the German customer”) entered into a licensing and testing service agreement (“the German agreement”) for intellectual property related to TheraSure™-CNI Monitor and TheraSure™ Transplant Monitor. Under the terms of the agreement, Chronix received from the German customer an upfront payment of €3.7 million, less applicable VAT obligations, which Chronix recognized ratably over the contract term of 3.5 years. The German agreement contains a stipulation that requires Chronix to refund to the German customer a portion of the upfront fee on a pro rata basis if the German agreement is terminated prior to December 31, 2021. The deferred revenue of $738,000 recorded at the acquisition date represents the refund Oncocyte would pay to the German customer should it terminate the agreement prior to the agreed upon term. As of December 31, 2021, Oncocyte has fully amortized the deferred revenue and recorded revenue ratably over the remaining period as the German customer’s refund rights expire.

| Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted | Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
The following accounting standards, which are not yet effective, are presently being evaluated by Oncocyte to determine the impact that it might have on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-10, which amends the current approach to estimate credit losses on certain financial assets, including trade and other receivables. Generally, this amendment requires entities to establish a valuation allowance for the expected lifetime losses of these certain financial assets. Upon the initial recognition of such assets, which will be based on, among other things, historical information, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. Subsequent changes in the valuation allowance are recorded in current earnings and reversal of previous losses are permitted. Currently, U.S. GAAP requires entities to write down credit losses only when losses are probable and loss reversals are not permitted. The update will be effective for Oncocyte in the first quarter of 2023. Early adoption is permitted. Oncocyte is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, to provide specific guidance to eliminate diversity in practice on how to recognize and measure acquired contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts from customers in a business combination consistent with revenue contracts with customers not acquired in an acquisition. The amendments in this update provide that the acquirer should consider the terms of the acquired contracts, such as timing of payment, identify each performance obligation in the contracts, and allocate the total transaction price to each identified performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis as of contract inception (that is, the date the acquiree entered into the contracts) or contract modification to determine what should be recorded at the acquisition date. These amendments are effective for the Company beginning with fiscal year 2023. The impact of the adoption of the amendments in this update will depend on the magnitude of any customer contracts assumed in a business combination in 2023 and beyond.

| COVID-19 impact and related risks | COVID-19 impact and related risks
The ongoing global outbreak of COVID-19, and the various attempts throughout the world to contain it, have created significant volatility, uncertainty and disruption. In response to government directives and guidelines, health care advisories and employee and other concerns, Oncocyte has altered certain aspects of its operations. A number of Oncocyte’s employees have had to work remotely from home and those on site have had to follow Oncocyte’s social distance guidelines, which could impact their productivity. COVID-19 could also disrupt Oncocyte’s operations due to absenteeism by infected or ill members of management or other employees, or absenteeism by members of management and other employees who cannot effectively work remotely but who elect not to come to work due to the illness affecting others in Oncocyte’s office or laboratory facilities, or due to quarantines.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Oncocyte has not been able, and may continue to not be able, to maintain its preferred level of physician or customer outreach and marketing of its diagnostic testing and Pharma Services, which may have negatively impacted and may continue to negatively impact potential new customers’ interest in those tests and services. Because of COVID-19, travel, visits, and in-person meetings related to Oncocyte’s business have been severely curtailed or canceled and Oncocyte has instead used on-line or virtual meetings to meet with potential customers and others.
In addition to operational adjustments, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic have led to uncertainties related to Oncocyte’s business growth and ability to forecast the demand for its LDTs and Pharma Services and resulting revenues. Concerns over available hospital, staffing, equipment, and other resources, and the risk of exposure to the virus, have led to delays in early-stage lung cancer surgeries and clinical trials of drugs under development by pharma companies, and the continued deferral of lung cancer surgeries and drug development clinical trials due to resurgence in COVID-19 cases could continue to result in delayed or reduced use of DetermaRx™ and Oncocyte’s Pharma Services.
It is possible that impacts of COVID-19 on Oncocyte’s operations or revenues or its access to capital could prevent Oncocyte from complying, or could result in a material noncompliance, with one or more obligations or covenants under material agreements to which Oncocyte is a party, with the result that Oncocyte would be in material breach of the applicable obligation, covenant, or agreement. Any such material breach could cause Oncocyte to incur material financial liabilities or an acceleration of the date for paying a financial obligation to the other party to the applicable agreement, or could cause Oncocyte to lose material contractual rights, such as rights to use leased equipment or laboratory or office space, or rights to use licensed patents or other intellectual property, the use of which is material to Oncocyte’s business. Similarly, it is possible that impacts of COVID-19 on the business, operations, or financial condition of any third party with whom Oncocyte has a contractual relationship could cause the third party to be unable to perform its contractual obligations to Oncocyte, resulting in Oncocyte’s loss of the benefits of a contract that could be material to Oncocyte’s business.
The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it might impact Oncocytes’ business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that are not subject to accurate prediction and that are beyond Oncocyte’s control.
