Description of Business

Singular Genomics Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) is a life science technology company that develops next-generation sequencing and multiomics technologies. The commercially available G4 Sequencing Platform is a powerful, highly versatile benchtop genomic sequencer designed to produce fast and accurate results. In development, the PX system leverages the Company’s proprietary sequencing technology, applying it as an in-situ readout to look at RNA and proteins in single cells and tissue. With these products, the Company’s mission is to empower researchers and clinicians to advance science and medicine.

The Company was incorporated in the state of Delaware in June 2016 and has its principal operations in San Diego, California.

Initial Public Offering

On June 1, 2021, the Company closed its initial public offering (“IPO”) in which it sold 11,730,000 shares of common stock (which included 1,530,000 shares that were sold pursuant to the full exercise of the IPO underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares) at a public offering price of $22.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $237.2 million after deducting offering costs, underwriting discounts and commissions of $20.9 million.

Concurrent with the closing of the IPO:

38,826,388 outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock converted into an equivalent number of shares of common stock;
outstanding principal and interest amount of convertible promissory notes (the “2021 Convertible Notes”) converted into 7,531,777 shares of common stock; and
a warrant to purchase 129,156 shares of convertible preferred stock (the “SVB Warrant”) was automatically adjusted to become a warrant to purchase an equivalent number of shares of common stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has incurred net losses since inception and, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, had an accumulated deficit of $197.9 million and $151.9 million, respectively. The Company has a limited operating history, and the revenue and income potential of the Company’s business are unproven. From incorporation in June 2016 through June 30, 2022, substantially all of the Company’s operations have been funded by the sales of equity securities and issuances of debt. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $287.5 million. The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of June 30, 2022 are sufficient to fund its operations for at least 12 months from the issuance date of the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
