 if we ultimately prevail. On February 1, 2024, we received a subpoena from United States Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General, seeking documents and information concerning claims submitted for payment under federal healthcare programs. The subpoena requested that we produce documents relating primarily to interactions with medical providers and billing to government-funded healthcare programs for our tests. The time period covered by the subpoena is January 1, 2015 through the date of issuance of the subpoena. We are continuing to cooperate with the government’s request and are in the process of responding to the subpoena. We are unable to predict what action, if any, might be taken in the future by the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General, or any other governmental authority as a result of the matters related to this subpoena. No claims have been made against us at this time. This inquiry, and any potential resulting claim asserted against us, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, expensive to address and divert management’s attention and other resources. These claims also could subject us to significant liability for damages and harm our reputation. Our insurance and indemnities may not cover all claims that may be asserted against us. We are unable to predict the outcome and are unable to make a meaningful estimate of the amount or range of loss, if any, that could result from any unfavorable outcome.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in the 2024 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those described the 2024 10-K other than the updates to the risk factors or new risk factors set forth below. New risk factors that were not included in the 2024 10-K have been marked with an asterisk (*).

We may disclose changes to risk factors or additional risk factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
