GOODWILL, INTANGIBLES AND CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price in a business combination over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired. There were no goodwill additions during the three months ended March 31, 2026. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, goodwill of $252.3 million was recorded in connection with the Ambry Acquisition and Deep 6 Acquisition. Measurement period adjustments of $3.3 million were recorded related to these acquisitions. Refer to Note 4. The Company recorded no impairment loss during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recorded at their acquisition cost, or fair value if acquired as part of a business combination and amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets consist of a website domain, customer relationships, trade names, developed technology acquired as part of a business combination, and licensed data acquired by entering into research collaboration agreements. In each license arrangement, the other party provides the Company with specified data, which is used for research and development purposes and may also be licensed to third parties. The asset represents the Company’s right to use these datasets. The Company also recognizes a liability for the associated minimum payments that are presented within Accrued data licensing fees on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

There were no impairment charges recognized related to intangible assets during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
