Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the accounting disclosure rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP. These condensed financial statements consolidate the operations and accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Unless otherwise noted, all tabular dollars are in thousands, except per share amounts. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year condensed consolidated financial statements in order to conform to the current year’s presentation including the consolidation of the former Fabric Genomics and Legacy Sema4 operating segments into the GeneDx reportable segment effective in the second quarter of 2026. See Note 15, “Segment Reporting” for more information.
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and the results of operations of the Company for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows for a full year or any subsequent interim period. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2026 (the “2025 Form 10-K”).
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related disclosures at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The Company bases these estimates on current facts, historical and anticipated results, trends and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable in the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates include, but are not limited to, the transaction price for certain contracts with customers, potential or actual claims for recoupment from third-party payors, the valuation of stock-based awards, the valuation of financial liabilities, the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, and income taxes. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates, judgments and assumptions.
Capitalized Software
Capitalized Software
The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred to develop internal-use software. Capitalization begins when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. In evaluating the probability of completion, the Company considers whether significant development uncertainty exists, including whether the software contains novel or unproven functions that have not been resolved through testing or whether significant performance requirements remain substantially undefined.
Costs incurred prior to meeting these capitalization criteria, as well as costs for training and maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Capitalization ceases when the software project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalized software costs are amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of three to five years. The Company reviews capitalized software for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company assesses both the self-pay patient and, if applicable, the third-party payor groups that reimburse the Company on the patient’s behalf when evaluating concentration of credit risk. Significant patients and payor groups are those that represent more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues for the period or accounts receivable balance at each respective balance sheet date. The significant concentrations of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were primarily from large managed care insurance companies, institutional billed accounts, and data arrangements. The Company does not require collateral as a means to mitigate customer credit risk.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). The standard requires public business entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. As revised by the issuance of ASU 2025-01, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses: Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”) in January 2025, the provisions of ASU 2024-03 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Codification Improvements (“ASU 2025-12”). The standard addresses suggestions received from stakeholders regarding the Accounting Standards Codification and makes other incremental improvements to U.S. GAAP. The update represents changes to the Codification that clarify, correct errors in or make other improvements to a variety of topics that are intended to make it easier to understand and apply. ASU 2025-12 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the amendments to ASC 260 retrospectively. All other amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-12 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”). The standard establishes targeted enhancements to Subtopic 350-40 improving the operability of the recognition guidance considering different methods of software development. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted this pronouncement on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2026, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
