12. Commitments and Contingencies 

From time to time, we may be involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe there is no threatened litigation or litigation pending that could have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. On February 1, 2024, we received a subpoena from the 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 February 1, 2024. 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. Any potential claims 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.
