Note A – Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

NeoGenomics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Parent”), and its subsidiaries, NeoGenomics Laboratories, Inc., a Florida corporation (“NEO” or, “NeoGenomics Laboratories”), NeoGenomics Bioinformatics Inc., a Florida corporation, Path Labs LLC., a Delaware limited liability company (“PathLogic”) and Clarient Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc. (together, “Clarient”), (collectively referred to as “we”, “us”, “our”, “NeoGenomics”, or the “Company”), 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 throughout the United States.

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 interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Parent and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying interim 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. 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, 2015, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2016 and as amended and filed with the SEC on April 18, 2016.  Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation (see Note B).

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.

We have one reportable operating segment that delivers testing services to hospitals, pathologists, oncologists, other clinicians and researchers and represents 100% of the Company’s consolidated assets, net revenues and net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.  We have evaluated our segments based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), our Chief Executive Officer, reviews performance and makes decisions in managing the Company.  At June 30, 2016, all of our services were provided within the United States and all of our assets were located in the United States.  

We have two primary types of customers, clinical and biopharma.  Our clinical customers include community based pathology practices, oncology groups, hospitals and academic centers.  Our biopharma customers include pharmaceutical companies to whom we provide testing to support their studies and clinical trials.  We continue to assess the information available to the CODM since the close of the Clarient acquisition.  Currently, discrete financial information is not available to the CODM about the separate financial performance of our clinical and our biopharma customers.  As we continue to integrate the two companies and focus separately on the two customer types we will routinely assess the information available and reviewed by the CODM and determine if we meet the criteria for having separate reporting units.

Note B — Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

Effective January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-17, Income Taxes. The standard update was issued to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes and required deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. ASU 2015-17 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 31, 2016.  Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual period.  The Company has early adopted this ASU and applied the amendments retrospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets presented.  The effect of the adoption on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, was the offset of long term deferred tax liabilities by current deferred tax assets of $8,500,000 and $16,668,000, respectively.

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Unaudited

Effective September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations. The standard update was issued to simplify the accounting for measurement period adjustments.  The update requires that adjustments to provisional amounts identified during the measurement period be recognized in the period determined.  The effect of these adjustments on current earnings that would have been related to previously reported earnings is required to be disclosed.  ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 31, 2015.  The update should be applied prospectively to adjustments that occur after the effective date of this update.  The Company has adopted this ASU 2015-16 and it did not have a material effect on Company’s earnings for the period ended June 30, 2016. The Company has not finalized all valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Clarient acquisition at June 30, 2016.

Issued

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenues from Contracts with Customers. This standard update calls for a number of revisions in the revenue recognition rules. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of this ASU to the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted beginning in the first quarter of 2017.  The ASU can be applied using a full retrospective method or a modified retrospective method of adoption.  The Company is currently evaluating this update and has not yet determined the date that it will adopt this standard, the method it will use to implement the new standard or the effect this may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The update requires organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those periods.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this update will have on its consolidated financial statements.  

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The update requires excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to be recorded directly through earnings as a component of income tax expense. Under current GAAP, these differences are generally recorded in additional paid-in capital and thus have no impact on net income. The change will also impact the computation of diluted earnings per share, and the cash flows associated with those items will be classified as operating activities on the condensed statements of consolidated cash flows. Entities will be permitted to make an accounting policy election for the impact of forfeitures on the recognition of expense for share-based payment awards. Forfeitures can be estimated, as required under current GAAP, or recognized when they occur.  ASU 2016-09 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those periods.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.  

Note C — Acquisitions

Clarient

On December 30, 2015 (“the acquisition date”), the Company acquired from GE Medical Holding AB (“GE Medical”), a subsidiary of General Electric Company (“GE”), all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Clarient, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of GE Medical, for a purchase price consisting of (i) cash consideration of approximately $73.8 million, which includes an approximately $6.7 million estimated working capital adjustment and adjustments for estimated cash on hand and estimated indebtedness of Clarient on the Closing Date, (ii) 15,000,000 shares of NeoGenomics ’common stock, and (iii) 14,666,667 shares of NeoGenomics’ Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement.

The cash consideration paid as part of the purchase price was funded through the following:

On December 21, 2015 shareholders approved and on December 28, 2015, NeoGenomics filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada amendments to its Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of common stock from 100.0 million shares to 250.0 million shares and to increase the authorized number of shares of preferred stock from 10.0 million shares to 50.0 million shares in order to fund the common and preferred stock portion of the purchase price, among other things.  

The Company issued 15,000,000 shares of common stock as consideration for the acquisition of Clarient.  The common stock includes restrictions imposed on the holder in the Investor Board Rights, Lockup and Standstill Agreement.  We estimated the fair value of the common stock consideration using inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The key assumption in the fair value determination was a 15 percent discount due to lack of marketability of the common stock as a result of the restrictions imposed on the holder.  The acquisition date fair value of common stock transferred is calculated below ($ in thousands, except share and per share amounts):  

The Company issued 14,666,667 shares of Series A Preferred Stock as consideration for the acquisition of Clarient.  The rights of the Series A Preferred Stock are described in Note F. We estimated the fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock consideration using significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock at the acquisition date was $73.2 million or $4.99 per share.  This fair value was further reduced by the intrinsic value assigned to the beneficial conversion feature to arrive at a carrying amount of $28.6 million.  

On a fully diluted basis, assuming full conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, GE Medical would own approximately 32% of NeoGenomics.  In addition, pursuant to the Investor Board Rights, Lockup and Standstill Agreement, NeoGenomics has appointed a director designated by GE Medical to its Board of Directors.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date of December 30, 2015.  The Company is in the process obtaining input from third-party valuations of its tangible and intangible assets and other information necessary to measure the remaining assets acquired and liabilities assumed; thus, the provisional measurements of current assets, property and equipment, intangible assets, goodwill, current liabilities, net deferred tax liabilities and long-term liabilities are subject to change.  

The preliminary acquisition fair values below are presented as of December 30, 2015 (in thousands):

Of the $84.0 million of acquired intangible assets, $81.0 million was provisionally assigned to customer relationships which are being amortized over fifteen years and $3.0 million was provisionally assigned to trade names which are being amortized over two years.  For the three and six months ending June 30, 2016, we recorded approximately $1.5 million and $3.5 million of amortization expense respectively.  

Goodwill arising from the acquisition of Clarient includes revenue synergies as a result of our existing customers and Clarient’s customers having access to each other’s testing menus and capabilities and also from the new product lines which Clarient adds to the Company’s product portfolio.  None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.  

The provisional fair value of accounts receivable acquired was approximately $27.6 million as of the date of acquisition.

The Company recognized acquisition related transaction costs of approximately $4.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2015.  These costs include due diligence, legal, consulting and other transaction related expenses associated with the acquisition of Clarient. These expenses were included in general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015.  The Company also incurred debt issuance costs of $3.3 million which are recorded as reductions in the carrying amount of the related liabilities and are being amortized over the term of the loans.

The following unaudited pro forma information (in thousands), has been provided for illustrative purposes and is not necessarily indicative of results that would have occurred had the acquisition of Clarient been in effect since January 1, 2014, nor is it necessarily indicative of future results.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 have been prepared by adjusting our historical results to include the acquisition of Clarient as if it occurred on January 1, 2014. These unaudited pro forma consolidated historical results were then adjusted for the following:

As noted above, the unaudited pro forma results of operations do not purport to be indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved by the combined Company for the periods presented or that may be achieved by the combined Company in the future.

Note D — Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company has recorded Goodwill of $146.2 million as of June 30, 2016.  The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six month period ended June 30, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2015 are as follows (in thousands):

Intangible assets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 consisted of the following (in thousands):

We recorded approximately $1.6 million and $97,000 in straight-line amortization expense of intangible assets for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  We recorded approximately $3.6 million and $190,000 in straight-line amortization expense of intangibles for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  The Company recorded amortization expense from customer relationships and trade names as a general and administrative expense.  We will continue to record the amortization of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) technology, the LDT technology and the Flow Cytometry and Cytogenetics technology intangible assets as a research and development expense until such time that we have products, services or cost savings directly attributable to these intangible assets that would require recordation in cost of goods sold.

Note E — Debt

Term Loan

On December 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Term Loan and Guaranty Agreement (the “Term Loan Facility”) for which AB Private Credit Investors LLC acts as the administrative agent and collateral agent.  The agreement provides for $55.0 million of borrowings.  On June 30, 2016, the Company had current outstanding borrowings of $550,000 and long-term outstanding borrowings of $52.1 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $2.1 million.

The fair value of the Term Loan Facility is estimated by discounting the future cash flow using the Company’s current borrowing rates for similar types and maturities of debt, except for floating-rate notes for which the carrying amounts were considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.

The interest rate for borrowings under the Term Loan Facility will be, at the Company’s election, (i) (A) a base rate equal to the greatest of 4%, the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and the one month LIBOR rate plus 1%, plus (B) an initial applicable margin of 6% , or (ii) the (A) LIBOR rate for interest periods from one to twelve months, plus (B) an initial applicable margin of 7%, with a minimum LIBOR of 1.00%. Interest on borrowings under the facility will be reduced to Base Rate plus 5.5% or LIBOR plus 6.50% upon the later of (i) NeoGenomics’ achieving maximum total leverage of less than 2.0 to 1.0 and (ii) January 1, 2017.

The Company and all of its present and future subsidiaries (other than NeoGenomics Laboratories) are guarantors under the Term Loan Facility. The Term Loan Facility contains the following financial covenants: (i) maintenance of a maximum total leverage ratio of 4.0 to 1.0 (stepping down over time to 3.25 to 1.0), and (ii) maintenance of a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.10 to 1.0 (stepping up over time to 1.25 to 1.0).   These covenants were effective beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2016.  The Company was in compliance with all such financial covenants as of June 30, 2016.

The Term Loan Facility also contains various affirmative and negative covenants, such as the delivery of financial statements, tax authority compliance, maintenance of property, limitations on additional debt, restriction of dividends and other standard clauses.

The Term Loan Facility has a maturity of five years. In addition, the Term Loan Facility provides for annual amortization payments in an amount equal to 1.0% of the original principal amount of the term loan, paid in quarterly installments, and mandatory prepayments with (i) proceeds of certain assets sales and recovery events, (ii) proceeds of certain debt issuances, (iii) proceeds of certain extraordinary receipts, as defined, (iv) a portion of certain tax refunds and insurance proceeds, and (v) a portion of excess cash flow as defined.

Maturities of Long-Term Debt

Maturities of long-term debt at June 30, 2016 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Short-Term Debt - Revolving Credit Facility

On December 30, 2015, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) for which Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., acts as the administrative agent.  The Revolving Credit Facility provides for up to $25.0 million of revolving loans and a letter of credit subfacility for $1.0 million. Borrowings under the revolver and the letter of credit subfacility are limited to a borrowing base comprised of 85% of the expected net value of certain billed and unbilled accounts receivable less reserve amounts established by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

The carrying amount of the Revolving Credit Facility approximates fair value due to the short maturity and the variable market rates of interest that change with current prime and no change in counterparty credit risk and were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The interest rate for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is, at the Company’s election, (i) (A) a base rate equal to the greatest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and the three month LIBOR rate plus 1%, plus (B) an applicable margin ranging from 2.0% to 2.5%, or (ii) the (A) LIBOR rate plus (B) an applicable margin ranging from 3.0% to 3.5%. NeoGenomics will also pay 0.25% per year on any unused portion of the revolver.

NeoGenomics is a guarantor under the Revolving Credit Facility.  All of NeoGenomics’ present and future subsidiaries (including NeoGenomics Laboratories) are borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility contains the following financial covenants: (i) maintenance of a maximum total leverage ratio (funded indebtedness (including the outstanding amounts under the Credit Facilities), plus capitalized lease obligations, divided by EBITDA) of not more than 4.0 to 1.0 (stepping down over time to 3.25 to 1.0), (ii) maintenance of a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (EBITDA less capital expenditures not financed with debt or certain equity), divided by the sum of cash interest expense, scheduled payments and mandatory prepayments of principal on indebtedness, taxes and restricted payments) of at least 1.1 to 1.0 (stepping up over time to 1.25 to 1.0) and (iii) maintenance of a minimum cash velocity equal to or greater than 80%.  These covenants were effective beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2016.  The Company was in compliance with all such financial covenants as of June 30, 2016.

The Revolving Credit Facility also contains various affirmative and negative covenants, such as the delivery of financial statements, tax authority compliance, maintenance of property, limitations on additional debt, restriction of dividends and other standard clauses.  The Company was in compliance with all such financial covenants as of June 30, 2016.

The Revolving Credit Facility has a maturity of five years, maturing on December 30, 2020. In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility provides for mandatory prepayment in the event that the borrowing base is less than the aggregate amount of the advances outstanding under the revolver and any letters of credit, which prepayment will be equal to the amount necessary to remedy the over-advance.

At June 30, 2016, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, nor under the letter of credit subfacility.  The related debt issuance costs of approximately $1.1 million have been reclassified into other current assets at June 30, 2016.  We will continue to show debt issuance costs as a reduction in the related liability to the extent that there is an outstanding balance on the Revolving Credit Facility in the future.  As of June 30, 2016, there is approximately $25 million in available credit under the Revolving Credit Facility to be drawn upon as needed.  

Note F — Class A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

On December 30, 2015, NeoGenomics issued 14,666,667 shares of its Series A Preferred stock as part of the consideration for the acquisition of Clarient, see Note C.  The Series A Preferred Stock has a face value of $7.50 per share for a total liquidation value of $110 million.  During the first year, the Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation value of $100 million if the shares are redeemed prior to December 29, 2016.  The carrying amount of the Series A Preferred Stock at June 30, 2016 was $39.7 million as compared to the carrying amount at December 31, 2015 of $28.6 million.  The increase in the carrying amount is from the accrual of deemed dividends of approximately $3.7 million and the accretion of the beneficial conversion feature of approximately $7.5 million during the six months ending June 30, 2016, of which both amounts are recorded as distributions to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock on the income statement with the corresponding entry recorded as an increase to the carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Issue Discount

The Company recorded the Series A Preferred Stock at a fair value of approximately $73.2 million or $4.99 per share on the date of issuance.  The difference between the fair value of $73.2 million and the liquidation value of $110 million represents a discount of $36.8 million from the initial face value as a result of assessing the impact the rights and features (listed below) of the instrument and their effect on the value to the Company.

Beneficial Conversion Feature

The fair value of the common stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock was convertible at the date of issuance exceeded the allocated purchase price fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock by approximately $44.7 million on the date of issuance, resulting in a beneficial conversion feature. The Company will recognize the beneficial conversion feature as non-cash, deemed dividend to the holder of Series A Preferred Stock over the first three years the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, as the date the stock first becomes convertible is three years from the issue date.  The amounts recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was approximately $3.7 million and $7.5 million respectively.

Classification  

The Company classified the Series A Preferred Stock as temporary equity on the consolidated balance sheets due to certain change in control events that are outside the Company’s control, including deemed liquidation events described in the Series A Certificate of Designation.

Note G — Revenue Recognition and Contractual Adjustments

The Company recognizes revenues when (a) the price is fixed or determinable, (b) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (c) the service is performed and (d) collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

The Company’s specialized diagnostic services are performed based on a written test requisition form or electronic equivalent, 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 Medicare, commercial insurance companies, other directly billed healthcare institutions such as hospitals and clinics, and individuals.  The Company reports revenues from contracted payers, including Medicare, certain insurance companies and certain healthcare institutions, based on the contractual rate, or in the case of Medicare, published fee schedules.  The Company reports revenues from non-contracted payers, including certain insurance companies and individuals, based on the amount expected to be collected.  The difference between the amount billed and the amount estimated to be collected from non-contracted payers is recorded as an allowance to arrive at the reported net revenues.  The expected revenues from non-contracted payers are based on the historical collection experience of each payer or payer group, as appropriate.  The Company records revenues from patient pay tests net of a large discount and as a result recognizes minimal revenue on those tests.  The Company regularly reviews its historical collection experience for non-contracted payers and adjusts its expected revenues for current and subsequent periods accordingly.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NeoGenomics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (referred to individually as the “Parent Company” or collectively with its subsidiaries as “NeoGenomics”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company” in this Form 10-K) 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.

Overview

We operate a network of cancer-focused genetic testing laboratories in the United States.  Our mission is to improve patient care through exceptional genetic and molecular 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.

On December 30, 2015, we acquired Clarient, and its wholly owned subsidiary Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc. from GE Medical, a subsidiary of General Electric Company, for approximately $249.5 million, consisting of (i) cash consideration of approximately $74.0 million, which included an approximately $6.7 million estimated working capital adjustment and adjustments for estimated cash on hand and estimated indebtedness of Clarient on the closing date, (ii) 15,000,000 shares of our common stock, and (iii) 14,666,667 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock (the “Acquisition”).  For additional information and risks associated with the acquisition, see "Risk Factors," which appears in Item 1A of the Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on March 15, 2016 and as amended and filed with the SEC on April 18, 2016.

We believe the acquisition will allow us to broaden our offering of innovative cancer diagnostic tests to hospitals and physicians across the United States and to accelerate growth in the worldwide market for pharmaceutical clinical trials and research. The following discussion of our business includes the effects of the acquisition of Clarient.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company has laboratory locations in Ft. Myers and Tampa, Florida; Aliso Viejo, Fresno, Irvine, and West Sacramento, California; Houston, Texas and Nashville, Tennessee, and currently offers the following types of genetic and molecular testing services:

in the diagnosis of abnormal cells such as those found in cancerous tumors. Specific surface cytoplasmic or nuclear markers are characteristic of cellular events such as proliferation or cell death (apoptosis). IHC is also widely used to understand the distribution and localization of differentially expressed proteins.  Digital imaging allows clients to see and utilize scanned slides and 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.

Our BioPharma Services and Clinical Trials group 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 research and testing 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.

After assay design and validation, we provide laboratory services for large scale clinical trial testing. Whether serving as the single contract research organization (“CRO”) or partnering one, our BioPharma Services and Clinical Trials team provides significant technical expertise and works 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 FDA submissions for companion diagnostics and our pharma services activities are backed by our large clinical laboratory in Aliso Viejo, CA.  Our BioPharma Services and Clinical Trials business is supported by full-time sales associates.  Our goal remains focused on helping bring more effective oncology treatments to market through providing world class laboratory services in oncology.

Multiomyx™ - is a hyperplexed immunofluorescence assay technology that has similar staining characteristics as standard immunohistochemical stains, and has the significant advantage that up to 60 multiple proteins can be interrogated from a single FFPE section. Direct comparison of multiple biomarkers is made on the same cell, enabling routine co-expression analysis and identification of cells requiring multiple biomarkers staining. In addition to protein analysis, MultiOmyx is able to integrate genomic data utilizing FISH and NGS on the same sample to generate multiomic phenotypes.   Currently, we are only offering Multiomyx^TM services to our BioPharma and research clients.  

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 provides a menu of services that we believe 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

19

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

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

consultative services using our own specialized pathologists for difficult or complex cases and provide overflow interpretation services when requested by clients.

In areas where we do not provide services to community-based pathology practices and/or hospital pathology labs, we may directly serve oncology, dermatology, urology and other clinician practices that prefer to have a direct relationship with a laboratory for cancer-related genetic and molecular 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. However, 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.

2016 Focus Areas: Drive a “One Company Culture, Integrate, Grow and Innovate

In the past several years, NeoGenomics has experienced rapid growth, substantially all of which has been organic. In December 2015, NeoGenomics completed its acquisition of Clarient from GE Medical.  As a result, we expect to more than double in revenue in 2016, and we have focused on several initiatives to continue to build our company to be the World’s leading cancer testing and information company.

Create a “One Company” Culture

We believe our acquisition of Clarient in 2015 presents us with a unique opportunity to create a unified corporate culture that supports our vision, values, and strategic objectives.  We believe that by engaging our people, we will be able to retain them and motivate them to meet and exceed the expectations of our clients.  Excellent teamwork is required as we implement best practices across our expanded testing disciplines and consolidate operations and facilities.  

To create a climate of strong teamwork, we constantly communicate company values as well as developments in our business.  We invest substantially in training our employees and are working to become a “Best Place to Work” company.  We conduct surveys and take action based on feedback from employees designed to make our Company a better place for people to work.  We also work to develop and implement performance-based incentive plans for every employee at the company as a tool to reinforce our desired behaviors and organizational culture.  Creating a single organizational culture based on values and high performance is a critical initiative and key part of our 2016 plan.  

Integrate for Success

Combining the best of NeoGenomics’ and Clarient’s testing menus and services is one of our main objectives for 2016.  There was overlap in many of our test offerings, and differences between operating processes and procedures.  As a result, we are rapidly working to develop a single test menu, a single Laboratory Information System (“LIS”), a single billing process, a single brand, and a unified service offering.  

Our medical and operating teams are working to develop and implement plans to ensure that we are offering the best tests for our clients.  Our information technology teams are working to combine the best features from each LIS.  Numerous laboratory functional teams are reviewing and revising processes and procedures to select the highest quality and lowest-cost testing platforms.  Our sales teams have been combined to form one national team so that each account has one point of contact.  In billing, we intend to combine our separate operations using common policies and procedures in each billing location, and will integrate all operations using a common billing information system.  While we expect significant synergies from the combination of our two laboratories, we are also focused on retaining all our clients, and our goal is to ensure that we maintain the highest quality service throughout the integration process.  

We believe successfully integrating Clarient’s and NeoGenomics’ operations will also allow us to become more efficient and to reduce our cost per test. Our best practice teams are working with our information technology teams to make improvements in efficiencies to our lab processes, including a wide-scale adoption of on-line ordering, bar coding, specimen tracking, and other tools to create a streamlined, seamless, and efficient lab.  

In addition, we are working to implement plans to consolidate our Irvine Lab facility into our Aliso Viejo Lab facility, and to further streamline the design and operation of this consolidated laboratory.  Historically, improvements in our processes and procedures have

20

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

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

had a dramatic impact on our cost structure and have allowed us to absorb reductions in average revenue per test with minimal impact to gross margin.   For example, during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we reduced our average cost of goods sold per test in our legacy NeoGenomics business, which we define to exclude the PathLogic and Clarient businesses by 8.6% and 4.7%, respectively, versus the comparable periods in 2014 and 2013, and we have identified several other areas in the laboratory where we believe we can drive further automation and efficiencies.

Drive Profitable Growth

Our plans for the remainder of 2016 include initiatives to continue our strong organic growth performance.  We will continue to pursue market share gains by providing high complexity, cancer-related laboratory testing services to hospitals, community-based pathology practices, and clinicians throughout the United States.  We currently perform comprehensive analyses for hematopoietic cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma (blood and lymphoid tumors) as well as solid tumors such as breast, lung, colon, and bladder cancers.  For hematopoietic cancers, we typically analyze bone marrow aspirate and peripheral blood specimens.  For solid tumors cancers, we typically analyze tissue samples or urine.

Our growth over the past several years has been significantly influenced by our sales team performance.  Our highly trained sales team has been successful in competing against other laboratories because we have one of the broadest and most comprehensive test menus in our industry.  Our sales team is experienced with the scientific complexity and medical necessity of our testing services, and understands the needs of our client pathologists and oncologists. Our sales representatives often become trusted advisors to our clients who rely on them and NeoGenomics, to keep up with the latest developments in the rapidly changing field of molecular genetics.  We have also been successful in expanding to new geographies where we did not previously have sales representation and this has helped us bring our service offerings to new clients.  We believe the strength of our sales team, comprehensive test menu, and our reputation for high quality services, positions us to further drive growth throughout 2016.

Our growth has also been aided by strong client retention.  We believe our high rates of client retention are due to strong service levels, our “tech-only” service offerings, and a culture of customer focus in which our engaged employees seek to deliver the highest customer satisfaction possible.  Our “tech-only” testing option allows local pathologists to participate with us in the testing process by interpreting results and performing the professional component of certain tests.  Our strong service levels are reinforced by a disciplined management process with a system of detailed measures and metrics to ensure committed turnaround times and customer service.  By retaining our existing customer base and bringing in a steady stream of new customers, we have been able to organically grow our business significantly faster than the growth rate of the overall market and we plan to continue these activities throughout 2016.

We will also look to grow our business through mergers or acquisitions if the right opportunities become available.  We are focused on strategic opportunities that would be complementary to our menu of services and would be accretive to our earnings and cash flow in the short to medium timeframe.  In 2014 we acquired Path Labs, LLC, doing business as (“PathLogic”), a provider of specialized anatomic pathology services to hospitals and physicians primarily in Northern California.  PathLogic provides high-quality Anatomic Pathology services with significant expertise in the sub-specialties of renal pathology, dermatopathology, women’s health and gastrointestinal and genitourinary pathology.  

On December 30, 2015 we completed the acquisition of Clarient.  Clarient specializes in advanced genetic and molecular oncology diagnostic services and will enable NeoGenomics to broaden its offering of innovative cancer diagnostic tests to hospitals and physicians across the country, and to accelerate its growth in the fast-growing worldwide market for pharmaceutical clinical trials and research.  Complementary product offerings and expanded geographical reach of the combined Company are expected to provide customers with substantial benefits and create a significantly larger and more diversified provider of precision oncology diagnostics.  The Clarient transaction is a good example of the type of acquisition opportunity we will consider in the future.

Continuously Innovate

We are keenly focused on innovation, and believe this has been a key factor in our growth.  Over the past several years, we have developed over 125 new or improved molecular oncology tests and disease-specific panels, and believe we now have one of the most comprehensive oncology test menus of any laboratory in the world.  By launching new medically significant and necessary tests at a steady rate, we are able to provide cutting-edge developments in molecular genetics for clients and their patients, and we are developing our reputation as a leader in the field of molecular oncology.  

21

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

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

Our broad and innovative testing menu allows us to serve community-based pathologists and clinicians as well as pharmaceutical customers and nationally recognized academic centers. In addition, our comprehensive test offering allows us to be a one-stop shop for all of the oncology testing needs of our clients.  Pharmaceutical firms are also attracted to our laboratory based on our knowledgeable research and development team and our ability to offer tests at the forefront of medical developments.  In many cases, customers who begin using us because of our new innovative test offerings also begin to refer portions of their other testing.  Therefore, innovation helps in many ways to sustain our growth.  

We are committed to being an innovative leader in oncology testing. Our goal is to develop new assays to help physician clients better manage their patients and to enable them to practice evidence-based medicine tailored specifically for each of their patients. For example, during the year ended December 31, 2015, we introduced approximately 70 new or enhanced molecular and FISH based tests and cancer profiles.  In 2014, we launched our multimodality solid tumor “Discovery Profile” which analyzes 315 genes for mutation using NGS and includes 9 FISH tests to analyze translocations, amplifications and deletions that might be missed by NGS.  Our multimodality testing is somewhat unique in the industry and provides the gold standard FISH testing for detecting therapy-related abnormalities, many of which are required to be confirmed by FISH prior to initiating expensive therapy.

We are also focused on opportunities to offer “liquid biopsy” testing.  We recently launched twelve NeoLAB^TM liquid biopsy tests for hematological disease using next generation sequencing and other advanced molecular technologies.  These twelve new tests use cell-free circulating DNA and RNA found in blood plasma to identify molecular abnormalities in the bone marrow without the need for a bone marrow biopsy.  The technology is based on the concept that hematologic cells release their DNA, RNA, and proteins into circulation as the cells are immersed in blood.  The cell-free circulating DNA, RNA and proteins are referred to as exosomes, microvesicles, apoptotic bodies or simply DNA- or RNA-protein complexes.  Our new tests use proprietary methods to extract these circulating nucleic acids and analyze them using next generation sequencing and other advanced methods in order to evaluate molecular abnormalities present in hematological cancers.  We estimate that more than 600,000 bone marrow biopsies are performed annually in the United States to diagnose and monitor patients with various hematologic cancers.  However, bone marrow biopsies are a painful and uncomfortable procedure for patients, and can be associated with complications.  These new tests are designed to help patients by reducing the need for bone marrow biopsies, and to assist clinicians in their treatment of cancer patients.  Physicians can utilize the new liquid biopsy tests to: 1) screen patients to determine if a bone marrow biopsy is necessary, especially when myelodysplastic syndrome or acute leukemia is suspected; 2) monitor disease status, response to therapy and predict early relapse without having to perform repeated bone marrow biopsies at set intervals; and 3) complete testing when a bone marrow sample is inadequate or is technically difficult to obtain.

We also continue to develop new testing approaches by combining the capabilities of a variety of testing technologies.  We introduced a number of NeoTYPE^TM profiles that combine multiple molecular tests into multi-gene tests targeting specific types of cancer to help pathologists and oncologists determine cancer subtypes on difficult cases.  Managed care payers have expressed interest in the more targeted panels as a more cost effective alternative to ordering large panels that include genes that have never been tied to a particular type of cancer.  We use NGS and bi-directional Sanger sequencing analysis which we believe is superior to many of the molecular tests being offered by our competitors because we are able to detect mutations that other methods would not detect.  We also add other testing modalities to NGS such as FISH, IHC and flow cytometry which allow for a more comprehensive analysis of each case.

We are working to develop a proprietary NeoLAB^TM (Liquid Biopsy) Prostate cancer test that is performed on blood plasma and urine rather than on prostate tissue biopsies.  There are two goals for this test: 1) to diagnose the presence of cancer in patients and 2) to distinguish high-grade from low-grade cancer in patients with prostate cancer.  We completed a preliminary patient study in June 2013, and the results were published in March 2014 in the Genetic Testing and Molecular Biomarkers journal.  In addition, in February 2014, we completed a follow up study with additional patient samples which confirmed the published preliminary data from the first trial.  The results of this second study were presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (“ASCO”) meeting in 2014 and were published in the Journal of Cancer in February of 2016.  We are also conducting a prospective validation study with over 2,500 patients enrolled thus far to further validate the efficacy of our NeoLAB™ Prostate Test.  Recruitment for this prospective study was concluded by the end of 2015.  Patients are being followed to collect outcome data and perform statistical analysis.  We are planning a full commercial launch of the NeoLAB^TM Prostate Test in 2016.

We also expect to continue to make investments in research and development that will allow us to commercialize a number of new and innovative genetic tests as scientific and medical technological advances are made.

Turnaround Times

We strive to provide industry leading turnaround times for test results to our clients nationwide.  By providing information to our clients in a rapid manner, physicians can begin treating their patients as soon as possible.  We believe our average 4-5 day turnaround time for our cytogenetics testing services, our average 3-4 day turnaround time for FISH testing services, our 5-7 day turnaround time for molecular testing and our average 1 day turnaround time for flow cytometry and pathology testing services are industry-leading benchmarks for national laboratories.  Our consistent timeliness of results is a competitive strength and a driver of additional testing requests by our 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.  We believe that our fast turnaround times are a key differentiator versus other national laboratories, and our clients often cite them as a key factor in their relationship with us.

Medical and Scientific Team

Our team of medical professionals and PhDs are specialists in the field of genetics, oncology and pathology. As of June 30, 2016, NeoGenomics medical and scientific team included approximately 30 full and part time Pathologists and PhDs.  The team is responsible for the quality of the Company’s testing, and for the development and validation of the new assays.  The addition of Clarient’s pathology team has added increased depth to our medical team, and has enhanced our ability to service a wider range of specialties.

Extensive Tech-Only Service Offerings

We believe, we have the most extensive menu of “tech-only” FISH services in the country. We also offer “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 FISH, flow cytometry and other tech-only service offerings allow properly trained and credentialed community-based pathologists to extend their own practices by performing professional interpretations services, which allows them to better service the needs of their local clientele without a direct investment in costly lab equipment and personnel required to perform the technical component of genetic and molecular testing.

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 believe this innovative approach to serving the needs of pathology clients’ results in longer term, more committed and strategic client relationships. Our extensive “tech-only” service offerings have differentiated us and allowed us to compete more effectively against larger, more entrenched competitors in our niche of the industry.

Global Service Offerings

We also 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 are looking for specialists to interpret the testing results for them. 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. Many of our tech-only clients also rely on our medical team for difficult or challenging cases by ordering our global testing services on a case-by-case basis or our medical team can serve as a backup to support our clients who need help to satisfy the continued and demanding requirements of their practice. Our reporting capabilities allow for all relevant case data from our global services to be captured in one summary report. When providing global services, NeoGenomics bills for both the technical and professional component of the test, which results in a higher reimbursement level.

Superior Testing Technologies and Instrumentation

We use some of the most advanced testing technologies and instrumentation in the laboratory industry. The use of next generation sequencing in our molecular testing allows us to detect multiple mutations and our proprietary techniques allow us to achieve high

23

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

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

sensitivity in our next generation sequencing testing.  In addition, we use high sensitivity Sanger sequencing, RNA and DNA quantification, SNP/Cytogenetic arrays, Fragment Length analysis, and other molecular testing technologies.  Our automated FISH and Cytogenetics tools allow us to deliver the highest quality testing to our clients and our flow cytometry laboratory uses 10-color flow cytometry analysis technology on a technical-only basis. We are one of only a few laboratories with an electron microscopy department for diagnosis in complex renal case analysis.  Our MultiOmyx platform is a unique immunofluorecence array technology that allows up to sixty immunohistochemistry stains to be analyzed on a single slide.  We are continually testing new laboratory equipment in order to remain at the forefront of new developments in the testing field.

Laboratory Information System

We believe we have a state-of-the-art LIS that interconnects our locations and provides flexible reporting solutions to clients.  This system allows us to standardize testing and deliver uniform test results and images throughout our network, regardless of the location that any specific portion of a test is performed within our network.  This allows us to move specimens and image analysis work between locations to better balance our workload.  Our LIS also allows us to offer highly specialized and customizable reporting solutions to our tech-only clients.  For instance, our “tech-only” FISH and flow cytometry applications allow our community-based pathologist clients to tailor individual reports to their specifications and incorporate only the images they select and then issue and sign-out such reports using our system.  Our customized reporting solution also allows our clients to incorporate test results performed on ancillary tests not performed at NeoGenomics into summary report templates.  This FlexREPORT feature has been well-received by clients.

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 our core clinical genetic testing business is organized into five regions (Northeast, Southeast, North Central, South Central and West), and we have separate sales teams for each of our BioPharma Services and PathLogic businesses.   These sales representatives all 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 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.

Geographic Locations

Many high complexity laboratories within the cancer testing niche have frequently operated a core facility on either the West Coast or the East Coast of the United States to service the needs of their customers around the country. We believe our clients and prospects desire to do business with a laboratory with national breadth and a local presence. We have eight facilities and five large laboratory locations in Fort Myers, Florida, West Sacramento, California, Aliso Viejo, California, Irvine, California and Houston Texas and three smaller laboratory locations in Fresno, California, Nashville, Tennessee and Tampa, Florida. Our objective is to “operate one lab with multiple locations” in order to deliver standardized, high quality, test results. We intend to continue to develop and open new laboratories and/or expand our current facilities as market situations dictate and business opportunities arise.

Scientific Advances

In the past few years our field has experienced a rapid increase in tests that are tied to specific “genomic pathways”. These predictive tests are typically individualized for a small sub-set of patients with a specific subtype of cancer. The therapeutic target in the genomic pathway is typically a small molecule found at the level of the cell surface, within the cytoplasm and/or within the nucleus. These genomic pathways, known as the “Hallmarks of Cancer”, contain a target-rich environment for small-molecule “anti-therapies”. These anti-therapies target specific mutations in the major cancer pathways such as the Proliferation Pathway, the Apoptotic Pathway, the Angiogenic Pathway, the Metastasis Pathway, and the Signaling Pathways and Anti-Signaling Pathways.

Seasonality

The majority of our testing volume is dependent on patients being treated by hematology/oncology professionals and other healthcare providers. Volume of testing generally declines during the vacation seasons, year-end holiday periods and other major holidays,

24

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

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

particularly when those holidays fall during the middle of the week. In addition, the volume of testing tends to decline due to adverse weather conditions, such as heavy snow, excessively hot or cold spells or hurricanes, tornados in certain regions, consequently reducing revenues and cash flows in any affected period. Therefore, comparison of the results of successive periods may not accurately reflect trends for future periods.

Please see the section captioned Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015; as filed with the SEC on March 15, 2016, and amended on April 18, 2016, for a detailed description of our business.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 as Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015

On December 30, 2015, we completed the acquisition of Clarient and its wholly owned subsidiary Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc., from GE Medical.  Our year-over-year comparisons are significantly impacted as the results of Clarient are included in the full three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 while the results of Clarient are not included in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 as the acquisition had not yet been completed (see Note C to the consolidated financial statements for additional information).  

The following table presents the consolidated statements of operations as a percentage of revenue:

The following table presents consolidated revenue by type for the periods indicated ($ in thousands):

Revenue

The increase in our clinical testing revenue for the three and the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same periods in 2015 was primarily due to the acquisition of Clarient, which accounted for 77% of the dollar increase in both the three and six month periods, while the rest was from organic growth.    NeoGenomics had strong growth in our clinical genetic testing business,

25

NEOGENOMICS, INC.

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

where we continue to gain new clients.  New tests such as PD1 and PDL1 have been well received by our client base and have also increased testing volumes from existing accounts.

The increase in our Biopharma and research revenue for the three and the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same periods in 2015 was also largely due to the acquisition of Clarient which accounted for 91% and 94% of the dollar increase for the three and six month periods, respectively.  BioPharma had a strong second quarter and has seen significant growth in its MultiOmyx testing platform.  MultiOmyx allows multiple assays to be run on the same cells, and is very useful to pharmaceutical firms working with limited samples or tissue.      

The following table shows clinical genetic testing revenue, cost of revenue, requisitions received and tests performed for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.  This data excludes tests performed for BioPharma customers and tests performed by PathLogic (testing revenue and cost of revenue in thousands):

Our year-over-year growth in clinical genetic testing revenue, as shown above, was primarily driven by the inclusion of Clarient, as previously mentioned.  We also achieved organic (legacy NeoGenomics business) growth of approximately 32% and 35% in clinical genetic testing revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 excluding the impact of Clarient.  We believe that the increase in revenues are the direct result of our efforts to innovate by developing one of the most comprehensive molecular testing menus in the industry.  This broad test menu allows for existing clients to order more testing and also has also attracted many new clients and has helped us to gain market share from competitors.  New tests such as PD1 and PDL1 have shown solid growth and continue to establish us at the leading edge as new tests and assays come onto the market.

The decrease in our average revenue per test of 4.9% and 5.5% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015 is primarily attributable to the change in test mix, with the inclusion of Clarient’s lower average reimbursement rate per test. Cost per test fell by approximately 4.4% and 8.5% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015 as we continue to see the benefits of scale from the added testing volumes of the combined companies.

We have been successful at reducing cost by internalizing many tests that Clarient previously sent to outside reference laboratories.  In the first quarter of 2016, we began performing these tests in house, at a lesser cost.  We have also implemented numerous best practices in our laboratories and have incentivized our laboratory teams to reduce the cost of testing.  We continue to make enhancements to our laboratory information system (LIS) to improve the productivity of our laboratory teams.  We expect to continue to realize cost synergies and reduce our cost of testing as we consolidate our two largest testing facilities in southern California.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit

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 ($ in thousands):

The dollar increase in consolidated cost of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 when compared to the same periods in 2015 were primarily a result of the Clarient acquisition, and also increases in our testing volumes.  Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue decreased year-over-year due to the cost savings initiatives, internalized tests that were previously sent out by Clarient and aforementioned synergies of the combined larger enterprise.  

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist of employee related costs (such as salaries, fringe benefits, and stock based compensation expense) for our billing, finance, human resources, information technology and other administrative personnel. We also allocate professional services, facilities expense, bad debt expense, depreciation, amortization and administrative-related costs to general and administrative expenses.

Consolidated general and administrative expenses for the periods presented are as follows:

The increase in our general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015 was largely due to the inclusion of Clarient and the additional resources necessary to manage the growth of the Company and the increased volume of testing.  These changes were the result of increased expenses in the following areas:  payroll, stock based compensation, depreciation and amortization, travel, technology and equipment, facility, bad debt, and professional fees.  We also had an increase of $1.5 million and $3.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 over the same periods in 2015 associated with amortization of customer lists and trade names as a result of the Clarient acquisition.  Excluding these non-cash related expenses, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue would have been 27.4%, versus 29.7% for the three month period and 27.1%, versus 29.9% for the six month period ending June 30, 2016 as compared to the same periods in 2015.  

Bad debt expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased by approximately $2.1 million to $2.8 million when compared to the same period in 2015.  Bad debt as a percentage of revenue was 4.4%, which was higher than last year’s rate of 2.9%.  Bad debt expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2016 increased by approximately $4.1 million to $5.4 million when compared to the same period in 2015.  Bad debt as a percentage of revenue was 4.4%, which was higher than last year’s rate of 2.8%.  These increases as a percentage of sales are primarily related to the addition of Clarient’s results.  Clarient has historically had a higher bad debt rate than NeoGenomics.  We expect our bad debt rate as a percentage of sales to decline over time as we implement NeoGenomics’ billing system and billing policies and practices into Clarient.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase as we add personnel and equity related compensation expenses, increase our billing and collections activities; incur additional expenses associated with the expansion of our facilities and backup systems; incur additional bad debt expense as sales increase and as we continue to expand our physical infrastructure to support our anticipated growth.  A significant portion of our stock based compensation is for non-employee options which are subject to variable accounting, and our expenses will fluctuate based on the performance of our common stock.  A rise in the price of our stock will increase our stock compensation expense, and a decline in our stock price will reduce this expense.  However, we anticipate that general and administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated revenue will drop over the coming years if we continue to grow.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses relate to cost of developing new proprietary and non-proprietary genetic tests, including payroll and payroll related costs, maintenance and depreciation of laboratory equipment, laboratory reagents,  probes and supplies, as well as costs related to our licensing agreement with Health Discovery Corporation, including the amortization of the licensed technology.  

Consolidated research and development expenses for the periods presented are as follows:

Excluding stock based compensation expense of $372,000 and $123,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, research and development expense was approximately $934,000 and $680,000, respectively.  Excluding stock based compensation expense of $363,000 and $178,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, research and development expense was approximately $2.4 million and $1.3 million respectively.  The stock based compensation increases reflect the increase in the price of our common stock and the fact that the related options and warrants for a non-employee contractor is accounted for at fair value each reporting period.  Excluding stock based compensation, the increase in our R&D expense was related to the development of several new tests including our NeoLAB^TM Prostate test, which was made available for ordering during the first quarter of 2016.  We expect our research and development expenses to fluctuate in future quarters because of increases or decreases in our stock price and the corresponding stock based compensation expense for non-employee stock options. Increases in our stock price result in additional expense and decreases in our stock price can result in recovery of previously recorded expense.  We anticipate research and development expenditures will increase over time as a percentage of sales as we continue to invest in innovation 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:
