Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, finance lease obligations, minimum royalties, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the finance lease obligations, and minimum royalties approximate fair value because the interest rates used fluctuate with market interest rates or the fixed rates are based on current rates offered to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities.

The valuation methodologies used for the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value and their classification in the valuation hierarchy are summarized below:

Marketable equity securities—The Company holds marketable equity securities, all of which are publicly traded shares of common stock, which have quoted prices in active markets and are classified as short-term. The securities are measured at fair value each reporting period. The Company classifies the marketable equity securities as Level 1 as they are valued using quoted market prices at each reporting period.

Contingent consideration—The Company was subject to a contingent consideration arrangement to make a cash payment in an aggregate value of $1.0 million, contingent upon Mpirik reaching a revenue target of $1.5 million for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2023. See Note 3, Business Combinations, for further discussion of that acquisition.

The Company is also subject to a contingent consideration arrangement of 35,000 additional shares of non-voting common stock in connection with the SEngine acquisition, the amount of which is determined based on the per share price of the Company’s non-voting common stock in a liquidity event completed prior to December 31, 2027. The contingent consideration has an acquisition fair value date of $0.8 million. See Note 3, Business Combinations for further discussion of that acquisition.

Liabilities for contingent consideration are measured at fair value each reporting period, with the acquisition date fair value included as part of the consideration transferred in the related business combination and subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings within operating expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company used a risk-neutral simulation model and option pricing framework to value the contingent consideration. Prior to the IPO, the Company classified the contingent consideration liabilities as Level 3 due to the lack of relevant observable market data over fair value inputs such as probability-weighting of payment outcomes. Subsequent to the IPO completed in June 2024, the Company classified the contingent consideration arrangement of up to 35,000 additional shares of non-voting common stock as Level 1 as the shares are valued using a quoted market price.

Warrant asset—The Company received warrants from Personalis, which were exercised in August 2024. The warrant assets are measured at fair value each reporting period using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which takes into consideration the price and volatility of Personalis Class A common stock. Changes in fair value are recorded in Other income (expense), net. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized a gain of $18.3 million in Other income (expense), net due to the change in fair value of the warrant asset. The Company classified the warrant asset as Level 2 as they are valued using observable market prices of Personalis Class A common stock.

Warrant liability—As discussed in Note 9, the Company issued a $100 million warrant to AstraZeneca. The warrant liability is measured at fair value each reporting period, using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company classified the warrant liability as Level 3 due to the lack of relevant observable market data over fair value inputs such as the expected term. The warrant was terminated for no consideration on December 31, 2024. The Company recognized a net gain of $39.1 million in Other income (expense), net associated with the warrant termination, as a result of the gain recognized from the warrant liability and warrant contract asset termination.

The Term Loan Facility and the Note were not recorded at fair value. The fair values of the Term Loan Facility and the Note approximated their carrying values as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. Estimates of the fair values of the Term Loan Facility and the Note are classified as Level 3 due to the lack of relevant observable market data over fair value inputs.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized a loss of $42.4 million in Other income (expense), net due to the change in the fair value of warrant liability determined by Level 3 valuation techniques. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized a gain of $0.4 million in Selling, general and administrative expense due to the change in fair value of contingent consideration and gains of $8.0 million due to changes in fair value of the warrant liability determined by Level 3 valuation techniques. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized a gain of $3.7 million in selling, general and administrative expense due to the change in fair value of contingent consideration and $4.7 million in other income (expense), net due to the change in the fair value of warrant liability determined by level 3 valuation techniques.
