ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
GRAIL, Inc. (“GRAIL” or the “Company”), is an innovative commercial-stage healthcare company focused on shifting the paradigm of early cancer detection. The Company’s Galleri blood test is a commercially available screening test for early detection of multiple types of cancer.
GRAIL was previously acquired by Illumina, Inc. (”Illumina”) in August 2021, at which point it became a 100% owned subsidiary of Illumina, and held separate as a part of binding hold separate commitments implemented pursuant to orders issued by the European Commission (the “Acquisition”).

On June 24, 2024, Illumina completed a spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) through the distribution of shares of GRAIL’s common stock to Illumina stockholders. In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company entered into several agreements with Illumina that govern the relationship of the parties following the Spin-Off. After the Spin-Off GRAIL became an independent public entity and GRAIL’s stock began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “GRAL”.
The Company had $69.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and $753.8 million of short-term marketable securities as of March 31, 2026. The Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months, as of the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were filed.
