(unaudited)



Note 1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
 
NeoGenomics, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (the “Parent”, “Company”, or “NeoGenomics”), operates as a certified, high complexity clinical laboratory in accordance with the federal government’s Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act, as amended (“CLIA”), and is dedicated to the delivery of clinical diagnostic services to pathologists, oncologists, urologists, hospitals, and other laboratories as well as providing clinical trial services to pharmaceutical firms.
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. These accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Parent and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been condensed or omitted in these accompanying interim consolidated financial statements and footnotes. Accordingly, the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
The results of operations presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any future periods. In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of all interim periods reported herein.
 
The Company reports its activities in two operating segments; the Clinical Services Segment and the Pharma Services Segment. These reportable segments deliver testing services to hospitals, pathologists, oncologists, clinicians, pharmaceutical firms and researchers and represent 100% of the Company’s consolidated assets, net revenues and net income for each period presented. For further financial information about these segments, see Note 11. Segment Information, in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Guidance
 
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which changes the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. The update aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The implementation costs should be presented as a prepaid asset on the balance sheet and expensed over the term of the hosting arrangement. The Company adopted this pronouncement on January 1, 2020 and the impact was not material to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In August 2018, the FASB also issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Under the new guidance, entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, or valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. However, public companies are required to disclose the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and related changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income. Certain provisions of the ASU must be adopted retrospectively, while others must be adopted prospectively. The Company adopted this pronouncement on January 1, 2020 and the impact was not material to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The new guidance requires that the reconciliation of the beginning-of-period and end-of-period amounts shown in the statement of cash flows include cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. ASU 2016-08 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods, using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. As a result, restricted cash of approximately $38.7 million as of March 31, 2020 is included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning and ending balances in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Please refer to Note 3. Leases, for

additional information regarding the use of restricted cash. There were no restricted cash balances in any reportable period prior to January 2020.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“Topic 326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as modified by subsequently issued ASUs 2018-19 (issued November 2018), 2019-04 (issued April 2019), 2019-05 (issued May 2019), 2019-11 (issued November 2019), 2020-02 (issued February 2020) and 2020-03 (issued March 2020). Topic 326 modifies the measurement and recognition of credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. The standard was effective January 1, 2020 and requires the use of forward-looking expected credit loss models based on historical experience, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount, which may result in earlier recognition of credit losses under the new standard. It also requires that credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities be recorded as an allowance through net income rather than reducing the carrying amount under the current, other-than-temporary-impairment model. The standard required a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company adopted and applied the standard as of January 1, 2020. Based on management’s analysis, Topic 326 is applicable to the Company’s trade receivables as well as contract assets recognized within the Pharma Services segment. An assessment was performed on historical trends, current economic conditions, supportable forecasts, and customer and credit risks. The adoption of Topic 326 did not result in a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides for temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the current guidance on certain contract modifications and hedging relationships to ease the burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or other reference rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance is effective upon issuance and can be applied through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (“Topic 321”), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“Topic 323”) and Derivatives and Hedging (“Topic 815”) (ASU 2020-01). ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321, the accounting for the equity method investments in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options in Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes: Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“Topic 740”), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminates certain exceptions within Topic 740 and clarifies certain other aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of this standard on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3. Leases
The Company leases corporate offices and laboratory space throughout the world, all of which are classified as operating leases expiring at various dates and generally have terms ranging from 1 to 15 years. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.
Some of the Company’s real estate lease agreements include options to either renew or early terminate the lease. Leases with renewal options allow the Company to extend the lease term typically between 1 and 5 years. When it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise an option to renew or terminate a lease, these options are considered in determining the classification and measurement of the lease.
Lease liabilities are recorded based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term and assessed as of the commencement date. Incentives received from landlords, such as reimbursements for tenant improvements and rent abatement periods, effectively reduce the total lease payments owed for leases.
Certain real estate leases also include executory costs such as common area maintenance (non-lease component), as well as property insurance and property taxes (non-components). Lease payments, which may include lease components, non-lease components and non-components, are included in the measurement of the Company’s lease liabilities to the extent that such payments are either fixed amounts or variable amounts based on a rate or index (fixed in substance) as stipulated in the lease contract. Any actual costs in excess of such amounts are expensed as incurred as variable lease cost.

The Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate by lease term in order to calculate the present value of our future lease payments. The discount rate represents a risk-adjusted rate on a secured basis, and is the rate at which the Company would borrow funds to satisfy the scheduled lease liability payment streams commensurate with the lease term. The discount rate is determined using the incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement and based on the lease term.
Operating Leases
Operating lease costs include an immaterial amount of variable lease cost, and are recorded in cost of revenue and general and administrative expenses, depending on the nature of the leased asset. Aside from variable lease costs, operating lease costs represent fixed lease payments recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
As of March 31, 2020, the maturities of our operating lease liabilities and a reconciliation to the present value of lease liabilities were as follows (in thousands):

Lease contracts that have been executed but have not yet commenced are excluded from the tables above. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has entered into $33.8 million of contractually binding minimum lease payments for leases executed but not yet commenced. This amount relates to the lease of the laboratory and headquarters facility in Fort Myers, Florida that is expected to commence in 2021. In addition to the minimum lease payments, the Company will pay approximately $25.0 million relating to the construction of the underlying assets and approximately $17.0 million in leasehold improvements. These amounts were placed into separate construction disbursement escrow accounts and are initially classified as restricted cash, non-current, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Disbursements to the landlord will take place from time to time to pay for the costs of the Landlord’s work. These disbursements will be classified as a prepaid lease asset or leasehold improvements, as appropriate, until the lease commences. Upon lease commencement, the prepaid lease asset will be included in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and the leasehold improvements will be placed in service. Construction of the infrastructure of this facility commenced in the first quarter of 2020. The Company is not expected to control the underlying assets during the construction period and therefore is not considered the owner of the underlying assets for accounting purposes.

Note 4. Revenue Recognition and Contractual Adjustments
The Company has two operating segments for which it recognizes revenue; Clinical Services and Pharma Services. The Clinical Services segment provides various clinical testing services to community-based pathology practices, oncology practices, hospital pathology labs and academic centers with reimbursement from various payers including client direct billing, commercial insurance, Medicare and other government payers, and patients. The Pharma Services segment supports pharmaceutical firms in their drug development programs by providing testing services and data analytics for clinical trials and research.
Clinical Services Revenue
The Company’s specialized diagnostic services are performed based on a written test requisition form or electronic equivalent. The performance obligation is satisfied and revenues are recognized once the diagnostic services have been performed and the results have been delivered to the ordering physician. These diagnostic services are billed to various payers, including client direct billing, commercial insurance, Medicare and other government payers, and patients. Revenue is recorded for all payers based on the amount expected to be collected, which considers implicit price concessions. Implicit price concessions represent differences between amounts billed and the estimated consideration the Company expects to receive based on negotiated discounts, historical collection experience and other anticipated adjustments, including anticipated payer denials. Collection of consideration the Company expects to receive typically occurs within 30 to 60 days of billing for commercial insurance, Medicare and other governmental and self-pay payers and within 60 to 90 days of billing for client payers.
Pharma Services Revenue
The Company’s Pharma Services segment generally enters into contracts with pharmaceutical customers as well as other Contract Research Organizations (“CROs”) to provide research and clinical trial services ranging in duration from one month to several years. The Company records revenue on a unit-of-service basis based on number of units completed and the total expected contract value. The total expected contract value is estimated based on historical experience of total contracted units compared to realized units as well as known factors on a specific contract-by-contract basis. Certain contracts include upfront fees, final settlement amounts or billing milestones that may not align with the completion of performance obligations. The value of these upfront fees or final settlement amounts is usually recognized over time based on the number of units completed, which aligns with the progress of the Company towards fulfilling its obligations under the contract.
The Company also enters into other contracts, such as validation studies, for which the sole deliverable is a final report that is sent to sponsors at the completion of contracted activities. For these contracts, revenue is recognized at a point in time upon delivery of the final report to the sponsor. Any contracts that contain multiple performance obligations and include both units-of-service and point-in-time deliverables are accounted for as separate performance obligations and revenue is recognized as previously disclosed. The Company negotiates billing schedules and payment terms on a contract-by-contract basis. While the contract terms generally provide for payments based on a unit-of-service arrangement, the billing schedules, payment terms and related cash payments may not align with the performance of services and, as such, may not correspond to revenue recognized in any given period.
Amounts collected in advance of services being provided are deferred as contract liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The associated revenue is recognized and the contract liability is reduced as the contracted services are subsequently performed. Contract assets are established for revenue that has been recognized but not yet billed. These contract assets are reduced once the customer is invoiced and a corresponding receivable is recorded. Additionally, certain costs to obtain contracts, primarily for sales commissions, are capitalized when incurred and are amortized over the term of the contract. Amounts capitalized for contracts with an initial contract term of twelve months or less are classified as current assets. All others are classified as non-current assets.
Most contracts are terminable by the customer, either immediately or according to advance notice terms specified within the contracts. All contracts require payment of fees to the Company for services rendered through the date of termination and may require payment for subsequent services necessary to conclude the study or close out the contract.

The following table summarizes the values of contract assets, capitalized commissions and contract liabilities as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (in thousands):

Pharma contract assets increased $0.2 million, or 15%, from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020. Pharma contract liabilities increased $0.7 million, or 26%, during the same period, while capitalized commissions decreased slightly by $29 thousand, or 3%. Revenue recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 related to Pharma contract liability balances outstanding at the beginning of the period was $1.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Amortization of capitalized commissions for both three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 was $0.2 million.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company considered various factors for both its Clinical Services and Pharma Services segments in determining appropriate levels of homogeneous data for its disaggregation of revenue, including the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows. For Clinical Services, the categories identified align with our type of customer due to similarities of billing method, level of reimbursement and timing of cash receipts. Unbilled amounts are accrued and allocated to payor categories based on historical experience. In future periods, actual billings by payor category may differ from accrued amounts. Pharma Services revenue was not further disaggregated as substantially all of our revenue relates to contracts with large pharmaceutical and biotech customers as well as other CROs for which the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows is similar and primarily driven by individual contract terms.
The following table details the disaggregation of revenue for both the Clinical and Pharma Services Segments (in thousands):

Senior Secured Credit Agreement
On June 27, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a new senior secured credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank National Association (“PNC”), as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The New Credit Agreement provides for a $100.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), a $100.0 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), and a $50.0 million delayed draw term loan which has an availability period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on December 27, 2020 (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan”). The Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured on a first priority basis by a security interest in substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company.
Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at the Company’s option, either (1) the Adjusted LIBOR rate for the relevant interest period, as defined within the agreement (2) an alternate base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (a) the federal funds rate for the relevant interest period plus 0.5% per annum, (b) the prime lending rate of PNC and (c) the daily LIBOR rate plus 1% per annum, or (3) a combination of (1) and (2). The applicable margin will range from 1.25% to 2.25% for LIBOR loans and 0.25% to 1.25% for base rate loans, in each case based on NeoGenomics’ Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the New Credit Agreement). Interest on borrowings under the New Credit Agreement is payable on the last day of each month, in the case of each base rate loan, and on the last day of each interest period (but no less frequently than every three months), in the case of LIBOR loans. The Company has previously entered into an interest rate swap agreements to hedge against changes in the variable rate for a portion of our long term debt. See Note 8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, for more information on these instruments.
The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $10.0 million swing loan sublimit, with swing loans bearing interest at the alternate base rate plus the applicable margin. Any principal outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility is due and payable on June 27, 2024 or such earlier date as the obligations under the New Credit Agreement become due and payable pursuant to the terms of the New Credit Agreement. No amounts were outstanding under Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2020.
Principal payments on the Term Loan Facility are due on the last day of each fiscal quarter with an annual principal amortization of 5% in the first year, 5% in the second year, 7.5% in the third year, 7.5% in the fourth year, and 10% in each year thereafter, with the remainder due upon maturity on June 27, 2024 or such earlier date as the obligations under the New Credit Agreement become due and payable pursuant to the terms of the New Credit Agreement.
On March 31, 2020, the Company had current outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan Facility of approximately $5.0 million, and long-term outstanding borrowings of approximately $90.6 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $0.6 million. These costs were recorded as a reduction in the carrying amount of the related liability and are being amortized over the life of the loan.
In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the New Credit Agreement, the Company will be required to pay a commitment fee in respect of the unutilized portion of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Delayed Draw Term Loan. The commitment fee rate ranges from 0.15% to 0.35% depending on NeoGenomics’ Consolidated Leverage Ratio. The Company will also pay customary letter of credit and agency fees.
The Term Loan Facility contains various covenants including entering into certain indebtedness; ability to incur liens and encumbrances; make certain restricted payments, including paying dividends on its equity securities or payments to redeem, repurchase or retire its equity securities; enter into certain burdensome agreements; make investments, loans and acquisitions; merge or consolidate with any other person; dispose of assets; enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions; engage in transactions with its affiliates, and materially alter the business it conducts. In addition, the Company must meet certain maximum leverage ratios and fixed charge coverage ratios as of the end of each fiscal quarter.
The Term Loan Facility requires the Company to mandatorily prepay the Term Loan Facility and amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility with (i) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain sales and dispositions, subject to certain reinvestment rights, and (ii) 100% of net cash proceeds from certain issuances or incurrences of additional debt.
Financing Obligations
The Company has entered into loans with various banks to finance the purchase of laboratory equipment, office equipment and leasehold improvements. These loans mature at various dates through 2022 and the weighted average interest rate under such loans was approximately 4.82% as of March 31, 2020 and 4.64% as of December 31, 2019.

Note 8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In June of 2018, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to reduce the Companys exposure to interest rate fluctuations on the Companys variable rate debt obligations. This derivative financial instrument is accounted for at fair value as a cash flow hedge, which effectively modifies the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of its floating rate debt to a fixed rate obligation, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense.
 
Under the hedging agreement, the Company receives a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR and we pay a fixed rate of interest. The following table summarizes the interest rate swap agreements.
June 2018 Hedge
Notional Amount $ 70  million
Effective Date June 29, 2018
Index One month LIBOR
Maturity December 31, 2021
Fixed Rate 2.98  %

The fair value of the interest rate swap is included in other assets or liabilities, when applicable. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of the derivative financial instruments included in other long-term assets was $0 for both periods. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of the derivative financial instruments included in other long-term liabilities were $3.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Fair value adjustments are recorded as an adjustment to AOCI, except that any gains and losses on ineffectiveness of the interest rate swap would be recorded as an adjustment to other expense (income), net. Fair value adjustments will be reclassified to interest expense in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings, whether upon termination or maturity. Hedge effectiveness is assessed quarterly. The Company determined that the interest rate swap is highly effective and, thus, there is no impact to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations from changes in fair value. Upon maturity or termination, gains or losses, if any, on this derivative instrument will be reclassified from AOCI to earnings. There were no amounts reclassified for gains or losses on derivative instruments during the first quarter of 2020.
Note 9. Stock Based Compensation
The Company recorded approximately $2.2 million and $2.1 million in stock based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



NeoGenomics, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (referred to collectively with its subsidiaries as “NeoGenomics”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company” in this Form 10-Q) is the registrant for SEC reporting purposes. Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “NEO”.
Introduction
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included herein. The information contained below includes statements of the Company’s or management’s beliefs, expectations, hopes, goals and plans that, if not historical, are forward-looking statements subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. For a discussion on forward-looking statements, see the information set forth in the introductory note to this quarterly report on Form 10-Q under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements”, which information is incorporated herein by reference.
COVID-19 Considerations
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was identified and the disease has since spread across the world, including the United States. In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. As a result, on April 9, 2020, the Company withdrew its previously issued 2020 guidance until the effects of the pandemic can be better assessed.
The Company has implemented significant actions to protect its employees while maintaining a continuity of critical oncology testing for cancer patients. Among other actions, the Company has de-densified laboratories and facilities, adjusted laboratory shifts, restricted visitors to facilities, restricted employee travel, implemented an Emergency Paid Time Off policy, provided remote work-environment training and support, and managed its supply chains. Importantly, all main laboratory facilities have remained open and there has been an uninterrupted continuity of high-quality testing services for clients. The Company's top priority remains the health and safety of employees and continued quality and service for all clients with a focus on patient care.
The Company saw a material impact to volume growth rates and clinical test volume in the last two weeks of March and in April. Clinical test volume was down approximately 20% year-over-year in the last two weeks of March and volume continued to be impacted in April. Demand may continue to decrease from historically low levels depending on the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the length of time it takes for normal economic and operating conditions to resume, additional governmental actions that may be taken and/or extensions of time for restrictions that have been imposed to date, and numerous other uncertainties. Such events may result in business disruption, reduced revenues and number of tests, any of which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
For additional information on risk factors related to the pandemic or other risks that could impact our results, please refer to “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q.
Overview
We operate a network of cancer-focused testing laboratories in the United States, Europe and Asia. Our mission is to improve patient care through exceptional cancer-focused testing services. Our vision is to become the World’s leading cancer testing and information company by delivering uncompromising quality, exceptional service and innovative solutions.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company had laboratory locations in Fort Myers and Tampa, Florida; Aliso Viejo, Carlsbad, Fresno and San Diego, California; Houston, Texas; Atlanta, Georgia; Nashville, Tennessee; Rolle, Switzerland and Singapore. The Company currently offers the following types of testing services:
a.Cytogenetics (“karyotype analysis”) - the study of normal and abnormal chromosomes and their relationship to disease. Cytogenetics involves analyzing the chromosome structure to identify changes from patterns seen in normal chromosomes. Cytogenetic studies are often performed to provide diagnostic, prognostic and occasionally predictive information for patients with hematological malignancies.
b.Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization (“FISH”) - a molecular cytogenetic technique that focuses on detecting and localizing the presence or absence of specific DNA sequences and genes on chromosomes. The technique uses fluorescent probes that bind to only those parts of the chromosome with which they show a high degree of sequence similarity. Fluorescence microscopy is used to visualize the fluorescent probes bound to the chromosomes. FISH can be used to help identify numerous types of gene alterations, including amplifications, deletions, and translocations.
c.Flow cytometry - a technique utilized to measure the characteristics of cell populations. Typically performed on liquid samples such as peripheral blood and bone marrow aspirate, it may also be performed on solid tissue
23

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

samples such as lymph nodes following additional processing steps. Cells are labeled with selective fluorescent antibodies and analyzed as they flow in a fluid stream through a beam of light. The properties measured in these antibodies include the relative size, relative granularity or internal complexity, and relative fluorescence intensity. These fluorescent antibodies bind to specific cellular antigens and are used to identify abnormal and/or malignant cell populations. Flow cytometry is typically utilized in diagnosing a wide variety of hematopoietic and lymphoid neoplasms. Flow cytometry is also used to monitor patients during the course of therapy to identify extremely low levels of residual malignant cells, known as minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring.
d.Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Digital Imaging – the process of localizing cellular proteins in tissue sections and relies on the principle of antigen-antibody binding. IHC is widely used in the diagnosis of abnormal cells such as those found in cancer. Specific surface membrane, cytoplasmic, or nuclear markers may be identified. IHC is also widely used to understand the distribution and localization of differentially expressed proteins. Digital imaging allows clients to visualize scanned slides, and also perform quantitative analysis for certain stains. Scanned slides are received online in real time and can be previewed often a full day before the glass slides can be shipped back to clients.
e.Molecular testing - a rapidly growing field which includes a broad range of laboratory techniques utilized in cancer testing. Most molecular techniques rely on the analysis of DNA and/or RNA, as well as the structure and function of genes at the molecular level. Molecular testing technologies include: DNA fragment length analysis; polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis; reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis, real-time (or quantitative) polymerase chain reaction (pPCR) analysis; bi-directional Sanger sequencing analysis; and next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis.
f.Morphologic analysis – the process of analyzing cells under the microscope by a pathologist, usually for the purpose of diagnosis. Morphologic analysis may be performed on a wide variety of samples, such as peripheral blood, bone marrow, lymph node, and from other sites such as lung, breast, etc. The services provided at NeoGenomics may include primary diagnosis, in which a sample is received for processing and our pathologists provide the initial diagnosis; or may include secondary consultations, in which slides and/or tissue blocks are received from an outside institution for second opinion. In the latter setting, the expert pathologists at NeoGenomics assist our client pathologists on their most difficult and complex cases.
Clinical Services Segment
The clinical cancer testing services we offer to community-based pathologists are designed to be a natural extension of, and complementary to, the services that they perform within their own practices. We believe our relationship as a non-competitive partner to community-based pathology practices, hospital pathology labs and academic centers empowers them to expand their breadth of testing and provide a menu of services that matches or exceeds the level of service found in any center of excellence around the world. Community-based pathology practices and hospital pathology labs may order certain testing services on a technical component only (“TC” or “tech-only”) basis, which allows them to participate in the diagnostic process by performing the professional component (“PC”) interpretation services without having to hire laboratory technologists or purchase the sophisticated equipment needed to perform the technical component of the tests. We also support our pathology clients with interpretation and consultative services using our own specialized team of pathologists for difficult or complex cases and provide overflow interpretation services when requested by clients.
NeoGenomics is a leading provider of Molecular and next-generation sequencing (“NGS”) testing. These tests are interpreted by NeoGenomics’ team of Molecular experts and are often ordered in conjunction with other testing modalities. NGS panels are one of our fastest growing testing areas and clients can often receive a significant amount of biomarker information from very limited samples. These comprehensive panels can allow for faster treatment decisions for patients as compared to a series of single-gene molecular tests being ordered sequentially. NeoGenomics has one of the broadest Molecular menus in the industry and our targeted NeoTYPE panels include genes relevant to a particular cancer type, as well as other complementary tests such as immunohistochemistry and FISH. This comprehensive menu means that NeoGenomics can be a one-stop-shop for our clients who can get all of their oncology testing needs satisfied by our laboratory. This is attractive to our clients as patient samples do not need to be split and then managed across several laboratories. NeoGenomics expects our Molecular laboratory and NGS capabilities to be a key growth driver in the coming years.
In addition, we directly serve oncology, dermatology and other clinician practices that prefer to have a direct relationship with a laboratory for cancer-related genetic testing services. We typically service these types of clients with a comprehensive service offering where we perform both the technical and professional components of the tests ordered. In certain instances, larger clinician practices have begun to internalize pathology interpretation services, and our tech-only service offering allows these larger clinician practices to also participate in the diagnostic process by performing the PC interpretation services on TC testing

performed by NeoGenomics. In these instances, NeoGenomics will typically provide all of the more complex, molecular testing services.
Pharma Services Segment
Our Pharma Services revenue consists of three revenue streams:
Clinical trials and research;
Validation laboratory services; and
Informatics
Our Pharma Services segment supports pharmaceutical firms in their drug development programs by supporting various clinical trials and research. This portion of our business often involves working with the pharmaceutical firms (sponsors) on study design as well as performing the required testing. Our medical team often advises the sponsor and works closely with them as specimens are received from the enrolled sites. We also work on developing tests that will be used as part of a companion diagnostic to determine patients’ response to a particular drug. As studies unfold, our clinical trials team reports the data and often provides key analysis and insights back to the sponsors.
Our Pharma Services segment provides comprehensive testing services in support of our pharmaceutical clients’ oncology programs from discovery to commercialization. In biomarker discovery, our aim is to help our customers discover the right content. We help our customers develop a biomarker hypothesis by recommending an optimal platform for molecular screening and backing our discovery tools with the informatics to capture meaningful data. In other pre and non-clinical work, we can use our platforms to characterize markers of interest. Moving from discovery to development, we help our customers refine their biomarker strategy and, if applicable, develop a companion diagnostic pathway using the optimal technology for large-scale clinical trial testing.
Whether serving as the single contract research organization or partnering with one, our Pharma Services team provides significant technical expertise, working closely with our customers to support each stage of clinical trial development. Each trial we support comes with rapid turnaround time, dedicated project management and quality assurance oversight.We have experience in supporting submissions to the Federal Drug Administration (“FDA”) for companion diagnostics. Our Pharma Services strategy is focused on helping bring more effective oncology treatments to market through providing world-class laboratory services in oncology to key pharmaceutical companies in the industry.
We believe that NeoGenomics is uniquely positioned to service Pharma sponsors across the full continuum of the drug development process. Our Pharma Services team can work with them during the basic research and development phase as compounds come out of translational research departments as well as work with clients from Phase 1 clinical trials through Phases II and III as the sponsors work to prove the efficacy of their drugs. The laboratory biomarker tests that are developed during this process may become companion diagnostic, or CDx tests, that will be used on patients to determine if they could respond to a certain therapy. NeoGenomics is able to offer these CDx tests to the market immediately after FDA approval as part of our Day 1 readiness program. This ability helps to speed the commercialization of their drug and enables Pharma sponsors to reach patients through NeoGenomics broad distribution channel in the Clinical Services segment.
We are building informatics and data-related tools to leverage our unique market position and oncology expertise to help our stakeholders solve real-world problems such as identifying patients for clinical trials or providing clinical decision support tools for physicians and providers.
2020 Focus Areas:
We are committed to improving patient care while being an innovative leader in our industry. Over the past two years we have grown our business organically as well as through the acquisition of Genesis Acquisition Holding Corp (“Genesis”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Genoptix, Inc. (“Genoptix”, and collectively with its subsidiaries and Genesis, referred to herein as “Genoptix”) in December of 2018, as well as the acquisition of the Oncology Division assets of Human Longevity, Inc. (“HLI - Oncology”). Our focus for 2020 includes initiatives to drive profitable growth while pursuing innovation and maintaining exceptional service levels. We expect these initiatives to allow the Company to continue becoming one of the world’s leading cancer testing and information company.
Strengthen Our World-Class Culture
Enhancing our culture to closely align with the values of our Company is a key priority. We will invest in the development of our people by creating mentoring, coaching and training opportunities to enhance and capitalize on the talent within our
25

NEOGENOMICS, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Company. We believe these initiatives will foster a culture of accountability and empowerment. We also believe these initiatives are necessary to ensure the success of our Company.
We actively promote the health and well-being of our employees. We recognize that health goes beyond greater health benefits and preventative care and includes the quality of the physical work environment and programs that encourage social responsibility and community engagement.
Additionally, inclusive communication is a key element in our high performance culture. Effective communication facilitates collaboration and enhances our employees’ understanding of their contributions to the Company’s overall objectives. We will foster employee engagement through collaborative forums, frequent team dialogue and recognition programs to reward teams for exceptional performance. Our employee retention rate is above average for our industry and continuing to strengthen our culture will enable us to recruit and retain world-class talent.
Continue to Provide Uncompromising Quality and Exceptional Service
Maintaining the highest quality laboratory operations and service levels has enabled us to consistently grow our business. We are continuously looking for ways to improve quality and implement best practices to streamline processes. We are focused on increasing automation with solutions that will maintain quality while improving efficiency in operations.
We will continue to grow a culture of quality through our leadership, coaching and employee training initiatives. We aim to empower our employees to deliver high-quality results in their respective function. We will implement initiatives to measure and improve turnaround times while maintaining a culture of quality, which we expect will continue to meet or exceed our customers' expectations.
Pursue Innovation and Growth
Our plans for 2020 include initiatives to continue to drive profitable growth and innovate. We will continue to pursue market share gains by providing high complexity, cancer-related laboratory testing services to hospitals, community-based pathology and oncology practices, academic centers, clinicians, and pharmaceutical companies. Additionally, we will focus on continued reimbursement effectiveness through improving coverage, streamlining processes and providing clients more efficient, automated ordering methods, which we believe will continue to fuel our growth and market share.
Our laboratory and informatics teams will continue focus on new assays and product offerings, including continued progress towards liquid biopsy, minimal residual disease (“MRD”) and other high-quality tests. We expect this to result in increased market share as well as enabling us to maintain our high levels of client retention.
Our broad and innovative test menu of molecular, including NGS, immunohistochemistry, and other testing has helped make us a “one stop shop” for many clients who value that all of their testing can be sent to one laboratory. We will continue to look for growth opportunities through mergers and/or acquisitions and are focused on strategic opportunities that would be complementary to our menu of services and would increase our earnings and cash flow in the short to medium time frame. We are also focused on investing in business development and informatics capabilities to partner with our key stakeholders, including patients, providers, payers and pharmaceutical companies to provide solutions to current or near-term problems that they face.
Competitive Strengths
In addition to the competitive strengths discussed below, the Company believes that its superior testing technologies and instrumentation, laboratory information system, client education programs and broad domestic and growing international presence also differentiates NeoGenomics from its competitors.
Turnaround Times
We strive to provide industry leading turnaround times for test results to our clients nationwide, both in the Clinical Services and Pharma Services segments. By providing information to our clients in a rapid manner, physicians can begin treating their patients as soon as possible. Our consistent timeliness of results by our Clinical Services segment is a competitive strength and a driver of additional testing requests by referring physicians. Rapid turnaround times allow for the performance of other adjunctive tests within an acceptable diagnosis window in order to augment or confirm results and more fully inform treatment options. Additionally, we believe that our rapid turnaround time on testing and our project milestones are a key differentiator in our Pharma Services segment.

NEOGENOMICS, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


World-class Medical and Scientific Team
Our team of medical professionals and Ph.Ds. are specialists in the field of genetics, oncology and pathology. As of March 31, 2020, we employed or contracted with over 120 M.D.s and Ph.Ds. We have many nationally and world-renowned pathologists on staff, which is a key differentiator from many smaller laboratories. Our clinical customers look to our staff and their expertise and they often call our medical team on challenging cases. For our Pharma Services segment, many sponsors work with our medical team on their study design and on the interpretation of results from the studies. Our medical team is a key differentiator as we have a depth of medical expertise that many other laboratories cannot offer to Pharmaceutical companies.
Innovative Service Offerings
We believe we currently have the most extensive menu of tech-only FISH services in the country as well as extensive and advanced tech-only flow cytometry and IHC testing services. These types of testing services allow the professional interpretation component of a test to be performed and billed separately by our physician clients. Our tech-only services are designed to give pathologists the option to choose, on a case by case basis, whether they want to order just the technical information and images relating to a specific test so they can perform the professional interpretation, or order “global” services and receive a comprehensive test report which includes a NeoGenomics pathologist’s interpretation of the test results. Our clients appreciate the flexibility to access NeoGenomics’ medical staff for difficult or complex cases or when they are otherwise unavailable to perform professional interpretations.
We offer a comprehensive suite of technical and interpretation services, to meet the needs of those clients who are not credentialed and trained in interpreting genetic tests and who require pathology specialists to interpret their testing results. In our global service offerings, our lab performs the technical component of the tests and our M.D.s and Ph.Ds. provide the service of interpreting the results of those tests. Our professional staff is also available for post-test consultative services. Clients using our global service offering rely on the expertise of our medical team to give them the answers they need in a timely manner to help inform their diagnoses and treatment decisions.
We believe we have one of the broadest Molecular and Next Generation Sequencing test menus in the world, with approximately 13,300 NGS tests completed in the first quarter of 2020. Clients have the ability to order single gene molecular tests, targeted NeoTYPE panels that include the relevant actionable genes for a particular cancer type as well as large NGS panels. Our Pharma Services Division offers a full range of sequencing testing including whole exome sequencing. Our menu enables us to be a true one-stop-shop for our clients as we can meet all of their oncology testing needs.
National Direct Sales Force
Our direct sales force has been trained extensively in cancer genetic testing and consultative selling skills to service the needs of clients. Our sales team for the clinical cancer testing services is organized into five regions - Northeast, Southeast, North Central, South Central and West. Our Pharma Services segment has a dedicated team of business development specialists who are experienced in working with pharma sponsors and helping them with the testing needs of their research and development projects as well as Phase I, II and III studies. These sales representatives utilize our custom Customer Relationship Management System (“CRM”) to manage their territories, and we have integrated all of the important customer care functionality within our Laboratory Information Services (“LIS”) into the CRM so that our sales representatives can stay informed of emerging issues and opportunities within their regions. Our in-house customer care team is aligned with our field sales team to serve the needs of our clients by utilizing the same LIS and CRM. Our field teams can see in real-time when a client calls the laboratory, the reason for the call, the resolution, and if face-to-face interaction is needed for follow-up. Our sales force educates clients on new test offerings and their proper utilization and our representatives are often seen as trusted advisors by our clients.
Seasonality
The majority of our clinical testing volume is dependent on patients being treated by hematology/oncology professionals and other healthcare providers. The volume of our testing services generally declines modestly during the summer vacation season, year-end holiday periods and other major holidays, particularly when those holidays fall during the middle of the week. In addition, the volume of our testing tends to decline due to extreme adverse weather conditions, such as excessively hot or cold spells, heavy snow, hurricanes or tornadoes in certain regions, consequently reducing revenues and cash flows in any affected period.
In our Pharma Services segment, we enter into both short term and long term contracts, ranging from one month to several years. While the volume of this testing is not as directly affected by seasonality as described above, the testing volume does vary based on the terms of the contract. Our volumes are often based on how quickly sponsors can get patient enrollees for their trials and seasonality can impact how quickly they can get patients enrolled. Many of our long term contracts contain specific performance obligations where the testing is performed on a specific schedule. This results in revenue that is not consistent among periods. In addition, this results in backlog that can be significant.

Revenue
Clinical Services revenue for the three month period ending March 31, 2020 increased $6.8 million when compared to the same period in 2019. Testing volumes also increased in our clinical genetic testing business by approximately 6.9% for the three month period ending March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The increases in revenue and volume primarily reflect a more favorable test mix as well as the benefit of reimbursement initiatives. This growth was offset by a decline in overall Clinical Services testing volume in the second half of March related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Pharma Services revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 increased $3.7 million compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to the impact of the acquisition of HLI - Oncology. This growth was offset by an overall decrease in revenue due to the COVID-19 impact. In addition, our backlog of signed contracts has continued to grow from $130.3 million as of December 31, 2019 to $147.7 million as of March 31, 2020. We expect this backlog to result in higher revenues in future quarters.
The following table shows Clinical Services revenue, cost of revenue, requisitions received and tests performed for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. This data excludes tests performed for Pharma customers.

We continue to realize growth in our clinical testing revenue, which we believe is the direct result of our efforts to innovate by developing and maintaining one of the most comprehensive cancer testing menus in the industry. Our broad test menu enables our sales teams to identify opportunities for increasing revenues from existing clients and allows us to gain market share from competitors as well as attract new clients looking for a one-stop shop.
Average revenue per test increased 0.8% for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 compared to the corresponding period in 2019. The increase reflects a more favorable test mix and the positive impact of our internal reimbursement initiatives.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit
Average cost per test increased 7.1% for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, compared to the corresponding period in 2019, reflecting the impact of payroll and payroll related costs in addition to the impact of COVID-19.
Cost of revenue includes payroll and payroll related costs for performing tests, maintenance and depreciation of laboratory equipment, rent for laboratory facilities, laboratory reagents, probes and supplies, and delivery and courier costs relating to the transportation of specimens to be tested.
The consolidated cost of revenue and gross profit metrics are as follows:

Consolidated cost of revenue in dollars increased for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue increased year-over-year. These increases in cost of revenue are largely due to an increase in payroll-related costs.
29

NEOGENOMICS, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Gross profit margin decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to the timing of Pharma Services revenue, higher costs due to the integration of Genoptix and additional testing capacity which was unused due to the impact of COVID-19.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist of payroll and payroll related costs for our billing, finance, human resources, information technology and other administrative personnel as well as stock-based compensation. We also allocate professional services, facilities expense, IT infrastructure costs, depreciation, amortization and other administrative-related costs to general and administrative expenses.
Consolidated general and administrative expenses are as follows: 
  Three Months Ended March 31,
($ in thousands) 2020 2019 $ Change % Change
General and administrative $ 36,344    $ 32,142    $ 4,202    13.1  %
As a % of revenue 34.3  % 33.6  %

General and administrative expenses increased $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The increase reflects transaction costs and incremental expenses related to the acquisition of HLI - Oncology as well as higher payroll and payroll related costs due to increases in personnel to support our near and long-term growth. Acquisition and integration costs related to HLI - Oncology were approximately $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in total but decrease as a percentage of revenue as we add employee and compensation expenses, incur additional expenses associated with the expansion of our facilities, and continue to expand our physical and technological infrastructure to support our anticipated growth.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses relate to costs of developing new proprietary and non-proprietary genetic tests, including payroll and payroll related costs, maintenance of laboratory equipment, laboratory supplies (reagents), and outside consultants and experts assisting our research and development team.
Consolidated research and development expenses for the periods presented are as follows: 
  Three Months Ended March 31,

Research and development $ 2,060    $ 1,209    $ 851    70.4  %
As a % of revenue 1.9  % 1.3  %
 
Research and development expenses increased $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. This increase was driven by investments in new test development, particularly in our Next-Generation Sequencing and FDA initiatives.

We anticipate research and development expenditures will increase in future quarters as we invest in innovation projects and bringing new tests to market.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses are primarily attributable to employee-related costs including sales management, sales representatives, sales and marketing consultants and marketing and customer service personnel.
Consolidated sales and marketing expenses for the periods presented are as follows:
  Three Months Ended March 31,

NEOGENOMICS, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


 
Sales and marketing expenses increased $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, when compared to the same period in 2019. This increase primarily reflects the expansion of our sales team, as well as higher commissions due to our increase in revenues and continued investment in marketing. We expect higher commissions expense in the coming years as the sales representatives’ continue generating new business with a focus on oncology office sales. We expect our sales and marketing expenses over the long term to align with changes in revenue.
Interest Expense, net
Net interest expense is comprised of interest incurred on our term loan, revolving credit facility and our other financing obligations offset by the interest income we earn on cash balances. Net interest expense for the three months ending March 31, 2020 decreased 55.1%, or $1.0 million, compared to the same period in 2019. We expect our interest expense to fluctuate based on timing of advances and payments on our revolving credit facility as well as changes in interest rates and cash balances.

Non-GAAP Measures

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company’s financial results and financial guidance are provided in accordance with GAAP and using certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that the presentation of operating results using non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company’s core operating results and comparison of core operating results across reporting periods. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making, planning and forecasting purposes and to manage the Company’s business. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to evaluate the Company’s operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management. The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations inherent in non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude charges and credits that are required to be included in a GAAP presentation, and do not present the full measure of the Company’s recorded costs against its net revenue. In addition, the Company’s definition of the non-GAAP financial measures below may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA

“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined by NeoGenomics as net income from continuing operations before: (i) interest expense, (ii) tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iv) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and, if applicable in a reporting period, (v) acquisition and integration related expenses, (vi) non-cash impairments of intangible assets, (vii) debt financing costs, (viii) and other significant non-recurring or non-operating (income) or expenses.

The following is a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to Non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2020:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash generated from operations, public and private sales of equity securities, and bank debt borrowings.
The following table presents a summary of our consolidated cash flows for operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 as well balances of cash and cash equivalents and working capital:

(1) Defined as current assets less current liabilities.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash flows used in operating activities were $6.9 million, a $13.0 million decrease compared to the same period in 2019, consisting of a net loss of $7.0 million and the cash flow impact of net decreases in operating assets and liabilities of $12.9 million, primarily driven by increases in accounts receivable, inventory and funds distributed for the construction of the new headquarters facility. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was partially offset by net adjustments to the net loss of $13.0 million. Receivables have increased year-over-year due to increases in revenue as well as timing of cash receipts. Inventory increased due to higher spend on materials to mitigate the risk of potential supply chain disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. As of March 31, 2020, we have paid $3.3 million related to the construction of the new headquarters facility from the restricted cash escrow account.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
32

NEOGENOMICS, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


During the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash used in investing activities was $41.7 million, an increase of approximately $38.5 million compared to the same period in 2019. This was primarily due to the acquisition of the Oncology Division of HLI as well as cash used for capital expenditures.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash provided by financing activities was $0.6 million compared to $0.5 million in the same period in 2019. Cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 consisted of $3.5 million from the net issuance of common stock, primarily offset by net repayment of the term loan and other financing obligations of $2.8 million.
Credit Facility
On June 27, 2019, the Company entered into a new senior secured credit agreement (“New Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank National Association. For further details regarding the new agreement, see Note 7. Debt. In order to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on this floating rate debt obligation, we entered into interest rate swap agreements. For more information on these hedging instruments, see Note 8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to the Consolidated Financial Statements herein. The interest rate swap agreement effectively converts a portion of our floating rate debt to a fixed obligation, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. We believe this strategy will enhance our ability to manage cash flow within our Company.
Liquidity Outlook
We had approximately $86.3 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2020. In addition, the senior secured credit agreement provides for up to $250.0 million in borrowing capacity of which approximately $96.0 million is outstanding at March 31, 2020. Based on our level of Adjusted EBITDA and the balance drawn, approximately $102.8 million was available at that same date. We believe that the cash on hand, available credit lines and cash collections will provide adequate resources to meet our operating commitments and interest payments for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of these financial statements.
Capital Expenditures
We currently forecast capital expenditures in order to execute on our business plan and maintain growth; however, the actual amount and timing of such capital expenditures will ultimately be determined by the volume of business. We currently anticipate that our cash payments for capital expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2020 will be in the range of $25 million to $30 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we purchased, with cash, approximately $4.7 million of capital equipment, software and leasehold improvements. We have historically funded and plan to continue funding these capital expenditures with financing obligations, cash, and through bank loan facilities, if necessary.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions and select accounting policies that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, except for the adoption of new accounting standards.

Related Party Transactions
On November 4, 2016, the Company entered into an amended and restated consulting agreement (the “Amended and Restated Consulting Agreement”) with Steven C. Jones, a director, officer and shareholder of the Company whereby Mr. Jones would provide consulting services to the Company in the capacity of Executive Vice President. The Amended and Restated Consulting Agreement has an initial term of November 4, 2016 through April 30, 2020, which automatically renews for additional one year periods unless either party provides notice of termination at least three months prior to the expiration of the initial term or any renewal term. On May 6, 2019, the Company and Mr. Jones entered into a letter agreement to modify certain provisions of the Amended and Restated Consulting Agreement which modifications included, by mutual agreement of the parties, the following: automatic expiration of the Amended and Restated Consulting Agreement on April 30, 2020 unless the parties mutually agree to renew it in writing; a description of consulting services to be provided to the Company (the “Services”) with a target of up to 15 hours per month of working time and attention to the Company; a fixed monthly cash consulting fee in the amount of $5,000 per month for the provision of the Services; and continuation of health insurance coverage at the levels currently in effect. In addition, Mr. Jones relinquished the title of Executive Vice President effective as of April 4, 2019.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, Mr. Jones earned approximately $15,750 and $38,000, respectively, for consulting work performed and for reimbursement of related expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, Mr. Jones earned approximately $13,125 and $12,500, respectively, as compensation for his services on the Board. Mr. Jones also received approximately $0 and $58,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, as payment of his annual bonus compensation for the previous fiscal years. The Company did not grant stock or restricted stock to any of its Board members, including Mr. Jones, during the three months ended March 31, 2020 or March 31, 2019.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not use special purpose entities or other off-balance sheet financing techniques that we believe have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and other relevant market rate or price changes. We are exposed to market risk associated with changes in the LIBOR interest rate and foreign currency exchange rates. We regularly evaluate our exposure to such changes and may elect to minimize this risk through the use of interest rate swap agreements. For further details regarding our significant accounting policies relating to derivative instruments and hedging activities, see Note B to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. We do not have any material foreign operations or foreign sales and thus have limited exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk.
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
As required by SEC Rule 15d-15, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following risk factors are in addition to the risks described in the Company’s Form 10-K under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the for the year ended December 31, 2019; as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019. The effects of the events and circumstances described in the following risk factors may heighten the risks contained in the Company’s Form 10-K.

The COVID-19 pandemic is highly dynamic in the United States and throughout the world and may adversely affect our operations and financial condition.
We are subject to risks related to the public health crises such as the global pandemic associated with COVID-19. Economic and health conditions in the United States and across most of the globe continue to change rapidly. The Company saw a material impact to volume growth rates and clinical test volume in the last two weeks of March and in early April. Demand may continue to decrease from historically low levels depending on the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the length of time it takes for normal economic and operating conditions to resume, additional governmental actions that may be taken and/or extensions of time for restrictions that have been imposed to date, and numerous other uncertainties. Such events may result in business disruption, reduced revenues and number of tests, any of which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Numerous state and local jurisdictions have imposed, and others in the future may impose, “shelter-in-place” orders, quarantines, executive orders and similar government orders and restrictions for their residents to control the spread of COVID-19. Starting in mid-March 2020, the governor of California, where several of our laboratories are located, issued “shelter-in-place” or “stay at home” orders restricting non-essential activities, travel and business operations for an indefinite period of time, subject to certain exceptions for necessary activities, which has been followed by similar orders in other states in which we operate, including in Florida where our headquarters is located. Such orders or restrictions, have resulted in our headquarters closing, work stoppages, slowdowns and delays, travel restrictions and cancellation of events, among other effects, thereby negatively impacting our operations. Other disruptions or potential disruptions include restrictions on our personnel and personnel of partners to travel and access customers; delays in approvals by regulatory bodies; delays in product development efforts; and additional government requirements or other incremental mitigation efforts that may further impact our testing capacity.
The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the Company’s customers, suppliers, vendors, and other business partners, but the Company is not able to assess the full extent of the current impact nor predict the ultimate consequences that may result. At this time, we have not experienced interruptions in our operations due to supplier delays. We have established a COVID-19 procurement team to partner with our suppliers to reduce the risk of disruption. Distribution channels have not been disrupted as incoming and outgoing tests are delivered via major carriers.
While the potential economic impact brought by and the duration of COVID-19 may be difficult to assess or predict, the widespread pandemic has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets and a recession or market correction resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could materially affect our business and the value of our common stock. The Company is continuously monitoring its own operations and intends to take appropriate actions to mitigate the risks arising from the COVID-19 pandemic to the best of its abilities, but there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in doing so.

(1) The Company’s Equity Incentive Plan, as amended on May 25, 2017, allows participants to surrender already-owned shares having a fair market value equal to the required withholding tax related to the vesting of restricted stock. Pursuant to a share withholding election made by participants in connection with the vesting of such awards, all of which were outside of a publicly-announced repurchase plan, we acquired from such participants the shares noted in the table above to satisfy tax withholding obligations related to the vesting of their restricted stock. The average prices listed in the above table are averages of the fair market prices at which we valued shares withheld for purposes of calculating the number of shares to be withheld.
