 set meets the definition of a business based on the guidance in ASC 805. If so, the transaction is treated as a business combination. Otherwise, it is treated as an asset acquisition. Asset acquisitions are accounted for by allocating the cost of the acquisition, including transaction costs, to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis without recognition of goodwill. If the total consideration transferred is less than the aggregate fair value of the net assets acquired (i.e., a bargain purchase), the difference is not recognized as a gain. Instead, the difference is allocated to the cost of the acquired assets on a relative fair value basis. Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, goodwill is measured as a residual amount equal to the fair value of the consideration transferred less the net recognized fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, as of the acquisition date, and transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

Contingent ConsiderationUnder the terms of business combinations or asset acquisitions, we may be required to pay additional consideration if specified future events occur or certain conditions are met. In May 2025, we acquired Capsulomics, Inc., d/b/a Previse (“Capsulomics”), which was recorded as an asset acquisition, and agreed to pay additional consideration of up to $2.5 million in cash based on the achievement of certain commercial milestones (the “Earnout Payments”). We account for the contingent consideration as a liability in accordance with ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies (“ASC 450-20”) when it is both probable and reasonably estimable. In accordance with ASC 450-20, we recorded the contingent consideration at the amount required to settle the respective obligation, and subsequent changes are recognized as adjustments to the cost basis of the acquired assets. These changes are allocated to the acquired assets based on their relative fair values as of the date of acquisition.Contingent consideration is classified as current or noncurrent in our condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the contractual timing of future settlement. Revenue RecognitionIn accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), we follow a five-step process to recognize revenues: (1) identify the contract with the customer, (2) identify the performance obligations, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to
