Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2026.
For a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies refer to “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these policies during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Unaudited interim financial information
The unaudited financial statements do not include all disclosures, including certain notes required by GAAP on an annual reporting basis. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements. In management’s opinion, the unaudited financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), statements of redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit), and statements of cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full fiscal year or any future period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On a regular basis, management evaluates estimates, including, but not limited to: stock-based compensation, deferred tax assets and liabilities, useful lives of long-lived assets, the incremental borrowing rate applied to operating and finance leases, determination of revenue recognition and accounts receivable, and valuation of debt and common stock warrants. These estimates are inherently subject to judgment and actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
Certain of the Company’s product candidates are in development. If the Company is unable to advance its product candidates through development, clinical validation and ultimately commercialize its product candidates, or experiences significant delays in doing so, the Company’s business will be materially harmed. Even if the Company completes the necessary validation studies and product development, the process to meet any applicable regulatory requirements can be expensive. As a result, the Company cannot predict when, or if, it will be able to commercialize a product candidate.
The Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties that the Company believes could have a material adverse effect on its future financial position or results of operations. As of the date of issuance of the financial statements, the Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require it to update its estimates, judgments, or the carrying value of its assets or liabilities. These estimates may change as new
events occur and additional information is obtained and are recognized in the financial statements as soon as they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to the Company’s financial statements.
The Company is subject to regulation and enforcement by the federal government and by authorities in state and foreign jurisdictions in which the Company conducts business. Such laws include, without limitation, state and federal anti-kickback, fraud and abuse, false claims, privacy and security laws and regulations. If the Company’s operations are found to be in violation of any such laws or government regulations that apply to use, the Company may be subject to penalties, including, without limitation, civil and criminal penalties, damages, fines, the curtailment or restructuring of operations and exclusion from participation in federal and state healthcare programs.
Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control of promised goods and services in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods and services. Under ASC 606—Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), the Company applies the following five-step approach:
Identify the contract with a customer
Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Determine the transaction price
Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
Recognize revenue when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied
The Company generates revenue primarily from prenatal and oncology testing services, which are referred to as testing services or test results. The Company considers the patient as its customer, that requests a test service through their physician. Test results are the single performance obligation being provided to customers. Testing service revenue is recognized at a point in time when test results are delivered to the ordering physician. The Company generally bills an insurance carrier, Medicaid, Medicare, the patient, or a combination upon delivery of test results.
The Company enters into contracts with third-party payors, including insurance carriers, Medicaid and Medicare, to set the pricing for tests provided to patients. Due to the nature of these third-party payor contract arrangements, the total consideration the Company expects to collect for test results is variable as they are dependent on the terms negotiated with the third-party payor. The predominance of the Company’s revenue is derived from payments by third-party insurance carriers.
The Company uses the expected value method of estimating variable consideration. The total consideration the Company expects to collect in exchange for the Company’s products is an estimate and is largely variable in nature. Consideration includes reimbursement from both patients and third-party payors. The Company establishes variable consideration by considering historical payment trends for tests delivered, test reimbursement disallowances, and contractual arrangements in place, among other factors, which is adjusted for current expectations. Current expectations of cash collections factor in changes in reimbursement rate trends, historical events not expected to recur, and future known changes such as anticipated contractual pricing changes or changes to insurance coverage. The Company also considers hindsight, where applicable, in estimates established for variable consideration and updates those estimates when actual experience supports doing so. In establishing variable consideration, the Company considers payors with similar reimbursement characteristics together. The Company monitors the cash collections against the estimated variable consideration over the expected cash collection period and any difference is recognized as an adjustment to estimated revenues after such estimated cash collection period has closed.
In January 2023, the Company entered a partnership with Johnson & Johnson ("J&J") under which the Company is licensing the Company’s proprietary knowledge, performing clinical trial support services including developing a clinical study assay, and other testing services to support a clinical trial for the counterparty. In March 2026, the Company amended and restated the agreement governing the partnership with J&J to amend
pricing and extend the term of the agreement, the extension is expected to have a duration of approximately three years. The Company concluded that the agreement and the amended agreement with J&J were within the scope of ASC 606 because the counterparty in the agreement meets the definition of a customer. The Company evaluated the terms of the agreement for revenue recognition, including whether the services are capable of being distinct and considered distinct within the context of the contract. The Company concluded that the licensing of the know how is not distinct from the other promises within the agreement and, as a result, was treated as a single performance obligation. Under this contract, the Company receives payments upon the achievement of milestones, including (i) receipt of approval of the trial, which was achieved in 2023, (ii) various patient enrollment milestones, and (iii) subsequent full trial completion, as well as reimbursement for testing services. In making an assessment of whether variable consideration should be included in the transaction price, the Company considers the degree of complexity and uncertainty associated with each milestone and related testing services, and whether achievement of the milestones and testing services are dependent on parties other than the Company.
In July 2025, the Company entered into a partnership with J&J for the development and commercialization of a companion diagnostic (CDx), intended for use with a new drug candidate of J&J. The Company is providing services related to regulatory filings to support companion diagnostic submissions for the Company’s assay. The development and regulatory support services represent a single performance obligation as the Company performs a significant integration service, such as analytical validation and regulatory submissions. The individual promises are not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract, and therefore, not distinct. The Company receives payment from achievement of milestones, including (i) various CDx development milestones, (ii) FDA regulatory submission and pre-approval, and (iii) CDx approval by FDA. For the companion diagnostic development and regulatory approval performed, the Company is compensated through a combination of an upfront fee and performance-based, non-refundable regulatory and development milestones. The transaction price represents variable consideration and the Company uses the most likely amount to estimate variable consideration. Application of the constraint for variable consideration to milestone payments is an area that requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates factors such as the scientific, clinical, regulatory, and other risks that must be managed to achieve the respective milestone and the level of effort and investment required to achieve the respective milestone. In making this assessment, the Company considers its historical experience with similar milestones, the degree of complexity and uncertainty associated with each milestone, and whether the achievement of the milestone is dependent on parties other than the Company. The constraint for variable consideration is applied to the contract price such that it is probable a significant cumulative reversal of revenue will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the contingency is resolved. Application of the constraint for variable consideration is assessed and updated at each reporting period as a revision to the estimated transaction price.
The Company recognizes revenue for the single performance obligation for each of the J&J partnership agreements over the period the services are provided. Specifically, the Company recognizes revenue using an input method to measure progress, utilizing costs incurred to-date relative to the total expected costs as a measure of progress. The Company assesses the changes to the total expected cost estimates in determining the revenue recognition for each reporting period.
The Company applies the practical expedient not to disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s remaining performance obligations beyond one year were approximately $7.6 million.
Disaggregation of revenue
The following table presents disaggregation of revenue by Prenatal, Oncology and Clinical trial support and other services for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):
Three Months Ended
March 31,
20262025
Prenatal
$96,525 $56,076 
Oncology
10,720 2,177 
Clinical trial support and other services
1,143 710 
Total revenues
$108,388 $58,963 
Substantially all revenues recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were generated in the United States.
Revenue related to performance obligations satisfied in prior periods
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $9.2 million and $2.9 million, respectively, as revenue related to performance obligations satisfied in prior periods.
In 2026, the Company entered into new agreements with payors that resulted in an increase of revenue related to expected payments on the reprocessing of claims from the three months ended March 31, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025. Revenue related to services performed during the year ended December 31, 2025 that were covered by these payors contributed slightly more than half of the $9.2 million in revenue related to performance obligations satisfied in prior periods for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue, which is a contract liability, consists of billings or cash received for services in advance of revenue recognition and is recognized as revenue when all the Company’s revenue recognition criteria are met. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the deferred revenue balance was $2.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively. All deferred revenue as of March 31, 2026 was classified as current. As of December 31, 2025, $1.3 million of the deferred revenue balance was classified as non-current and $2.2 million was classified as current. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, revenue recognized from deferred revenue at the beginning of the period was $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not have any other comprehensive income (loss) and, therefore, the net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) was the same.
Segment information
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is the Company’s CODM. The CODM reviews financial information presented on a company-wide basis to make operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance. As such, the Company has determined that it is managed as one operating segment and one reportable segment.
Key areas of focus for the CODM when making decisions on the allocations of resources is cash used in operations as well as revenue, gross margin and net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss); this information is used by the CODM and compared to budgeted amounts in order for the CODM to make decisions on how resources should be allocated across the organization. The Company’s segment measure of profitability is net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).
Segment revenues are predominantly derived from prenatal and oncology testing results, leveraging the Company’s diagnostic technology platform, which are delivered to patients, who are the Company’s customer. The Company’s customers are predominantly located in the United States. Substantially all of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in the United States. The Company’s technology platform is applied similarly in both the prenatal and oncology settings.
The financial statements provide the CODM with a view of the Company’s financial condition as it pertains to the Company’s assets, liabilities and expenses. Significant expense categories align with the expense categories and amounts presented on the statements of operations.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides for a practical expedient to estimate credit losses related to accounts receivable and contract assets from revenue contracts accounted for in accordance with ASC 606 using information as of the balance sheet date. The Company adopted this ASU effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2026 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s its financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements not yet Adopted
In November 2024 and January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 and ASU 2025-01, respectively, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of specified information about an entity’s certain costs and expenses. The amendments to the standards are effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2027 and interim periods beginning January 1, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied either prospectively to the financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine the impact it may have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which clarifies and expands the existing guidance on capitalizing implementation costs for cloud computing arrangements that are service contracts. The new guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine the impact it may have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07, Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract, which amends the guidance under ASC Topic 815 (Derivatives and Hedging) and ASC Topic 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers). The ASU (i) refines the scope for derivative accounting to exclude certain non-exchange-traded contracts whose underlyings are based on the operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract, and (ii) provides clarification on how to account for share-based noncash consideration from customers (such as equity instruments, warrants, or shares) received in exchange for the transfer of goods or services under a revenue contract. The new guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine the impact it may have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
