**EXPLANATORY NOTE**

*In this Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Form 10-Q/A"), all references to "we" or "us" or "our" or "Accelerate" or the "Company" refer to Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*

*Restatement Overview*

On February 6, 2023, the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"), in consultation with members of the Company's management, determined that the Company's previously issued interim unaudited financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022, three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (collectively, the "2022 Interim Financial Statements"), should no longer be relied upon due to the error in the balance sheet classification of the Company's 2.50% Senior Convertible Notes due 2023 (the "Notes") described below. For additional information, please refer to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 9, 2023.

This Form 10-Q/A amends and restates certain items noted below in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of the Company for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, as originally filed with the SEC on November 14, 2022 (the "Original Filing"). Except as described below, no other material changes have been made to the Original Filing. Unless otherwise noted, this Form 10-Q/A speaks as of the date of the Original Filing and does not reflect other events that may have occurred after the date of the Original Filing or modify or update any disclosures that may have been affected by subsequent events. Accordingly, this Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with the Company's filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing, including any amendment to those filings.

*Background of Restatement*

In March and April 2018, the Company issued $171.5 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, which have a maturity date of March 15, 2023, unless earlier converted or repurchased. Between September 2021 and August 2022, the Company entered into certain exchange transactions pursuant to which the Company exchanged $114.9 million aggregate principal amount of Notes for one or a combination of: shares of the Company's common stock, a secured promissory note and/or warrants to purchase the Company's common stock. As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q/A, $56.6 million aggregate principal amount of Notes remain outstanding.

The balance sheets contained in each of the 2022 Interim Financial Statements classified the Notes as a non-current liability with a net carrying amount of $115.8 million, $105.8 million and $56.3 million as of March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively. Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 210-10-45, current classification is required for convertible debt if the settlement in cash is expected to occur within 12 months, subject to the issuer's intent and ability to refinance the debt on a long-term basis pursuant to ASC 470-10-45. The identification of the error arose in connection with the Company's year-end close for the year ended December 31, 2022, whereby the Company determined that, as of the respective balance sheet dates for each of the 2022 Interim Financial Statements, its intent to refinance the Notes on a long-term basis was not supported by an ability to consummate the refinancing of all or a portion of the Notes in accordance with ASC 470-10-45. Accordingly, the Notes (or a portion thereof, as applicable in the specific period) should have been classified as a current liability in the balance sheets contained in each of the 2022 Interim Financial Statements.

The "as restated" classification of the Notes is further described and the impact of the restatement is included in Note 1 and Note 10 of the "Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" included in Part I, Item 1. "Financial Statements" of this Form 10-Q/A.

*Control Considerations*

In connection with the restatement, management concluded that there was a deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting that constituted a material weakness as of September 30, 2022. For a discussion of management's consideration of our disclosure controls and procedures and the material weakness identified, see Part I, Item 4, Controls and Procedures of this Form 10-Q/A.

------

*Items Amended in this Filing*

For the convenience of the reader, this Form 10-Q/A sets forth the Original Filing, as amended, in its entirety; however, this Form 10-Q/A amends and restates only the following Items of the Original Filing to the extent necessary to reflect the adjustments discussed above and to make corresponding adjustments to the Company's financial data and disclosures cited elsewhere in this Form 10-Q/A:

-Part I, Item 1 - Financial Statements

-Part I, Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

-Part I, Item 4 - Controls and Procedures

-Part II, Item 6 - Exhibits

In addition, in connection with the preparation of this Form 10-Q/A, the Company has evaluated its financial condition as of the date of filing this Form 10-Q/A. Based on this evaluation, the Company has determined that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q/A, as the Company does not currently have adequate financial resources to pay its outstanding debt obligation under the Notes and to fund its forecasted operating costs for at least twelve months from the filing of this Form 10-Q/A. The assessment of going concern is further discussed in Note 1 of the "Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" included in Part I, Item 1. "Financial Statements" of this Form 10-Q/A.

Further, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have provided new certifications dated as of the date of this filing (Exhibits 31.1, 31.2 and 32), and the Company has provided its restated condensed consolidated financial statements formatted in Extensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) in Exhibit 101.

*Restatement of Other Financial Statements*

In addition to the restated financial information for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 included in this Form 10-Q/A, we are also restating our interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. Concurrently with the filing of this Form 10-Q/A, we are filing amended Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q with the SEC with respect to these periods to address the error in the balance sheet classification of the Notes described above.

**NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**Unaudited**

**NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS; BASIS OF PRESENTATION; PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION; SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc. ("we" or "us" or "our" or "Accelerate" or the "Company") is an in vitro diagnostics company dedicated to providing solutions that improve patient outcomes and lower healthcare costs through the rapid diagnosis of serious infections.

***Basis of Presentation***

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 14, 2022.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures such as notes required by U.S. GAAP.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the entire year ending December 31, 2022, or any future period.

All amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars unless otherwise indicated.

***Principles of Consolidation***

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances.

***Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements***

*Background on the restatement*

The Company's previously issued interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 classified its 2.50% Senior Convertible Notes due 2023 (the "Notes") as a non-current liability with a net carrying amount of $56.3 million as of September 30, 2022. Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 210-10-45, Balance Sheet, the Notes should have been classified as a current liability in the balance sheet as of September 30, 2022. In addition, the Company recorded an adjustment to correct a previously identified immaterial error related to the Company's warranty obligations as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

------

*Effect of the restatement*

The effects of the correction of the prior-period misstatements on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet relating to the Notes are reflected in the table below (in thousands). The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity were also corrected for the other previously identified immaterial error as reflected in the tables below (in thousands).

Total net cash used in operating activities was not impacted by the error corrections.

In addition to correcting the consolidated financial statements, related revisions and updates have been made to "Liquidity & Going Concern (As Restated)", Warranty Reserve (As Restated) and Note 10, Convertible Notes (As Restated).

------

***Liquidity & Going Concern (As Restated)***

Since inception, the Company has not achieved profitable operations or positive cash flows from operations. The Company's accumulated deficit totaled $592.6 million as of September 30, 2022. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had net losses of approximately $15.9 million and $47.9 million, respectively, and had negative cash flows from operations of approximately $39.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The future success of the Company is dependent on its ability to successfully commercialize its products, obtain regulatory clearance for and successfully launch its future product candidates, obtain additional capital and ultimately attain profitable operations. Historically, the Company has funded its operations primarily through multiple equity raises and the issuance of debt (see Note 9, Long-Term Debt, Note 10, Convertible Notes and Note 18, Stockholders' Equity for additional details).

At September 30, 2022, the Company held cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $55.4 million and current liabilities of $66.1 million, including $56.3 million of Notes due on March 15, 2023. Based on its evaluation pursuant to ASC 205-40, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, the Company has determined that, as of the date of this Form 10-Q/A filing, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, as the Company does not currently have adequate financial resources to pay its outstanding debt obligation under the Notes and to fund its forecasted operating costs for at least twelve months from the filing of this Form 10-Q/A.

While the Company continues to explore additional funding in the form of potential equity and/or debt financing arrangements or similar transactions, as well as non-cash means to settle or refinance the Notes, there can be no assurance the necessary financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. If the Company raises funds by issuing equity securities, dilution to stockholders may result. Any equity securities issued may also provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of holders of common stock. If the Company raises funds by issuing debt securities, these debt securities would have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of preferred and common stockholders. The terms of debt securities or borrowings could impose significant restrictions on our operations. Similarly, there can be no assurance that market conditions and refinancing alternatives will be sufficient to settle or refinance the Notes on or prior to their maturity on March 15, 2023. The capital markets have in the past, and may in the future, experience periods of upheaval that could impact the availability and cost of equity and debt financing. In addition, recent and anticipated future increases in federal fund rates set by the Federal Reserve, which serve as benchmark rates on borrowing, and other general economic conditions may impact the cost of debt financing or refinancing existing debt.

Although we are actively considering all available strategic alternatives to maximize value, if we are unable to obtain adequate capital resources to fund operations and address the upcoming maturity of the Notes, we would not be able to continue to operate our business pursuant to our current plans. This may require us to, among other things, materially modify our operations to reduce spending; sell assets or operations; delay the implementation of, or revising certain aspects of, our business strategy; file a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in order to implement a restructuring; or discontinue our operations entirely.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions relate to accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, accrued liabilities, warranty liabilities, convertible notes, notes from related parties, tax valuation accounts, equity–based compensation, warrants, revenue and leases. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

------

***Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

The Company follows ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, which has defined fair value and requires the Company to establish a framework for measuring and disclosing fair value. The framework requires the valuation of assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements using a three-tiered approach and fair value measurement be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity).

The carrying amounts of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other current liabilities approximate the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

See Note 4, Fair Value of Financial Instruments, for further information and related disclosures regarding the Company's fair value measurements.

The estimated fair value of the Notes represents a Level 2 measurement. See Note 10, Convertible Notes for further detail on the Notes.

The long-term debt with a related-party consisting of the Secured Note (as defined in Note 11) and the Warrant are instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. See Note 11, Long-Term Debt Related-Party for further detail on the Secured Note and the Warrant.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents***

All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at time of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include overnight repurchase agreement accounts and other investments. As part of our cash management process, excess operating cash is invested in overnight repurchase agreements with our bank. Repurchase agreements and other investments classified as cash and cash equivalents are not deposits and are not insured by the U.S. Government, the FDIC or any other government agency and involve investment risk including possible loss of principal. We believe however, that the market risk arising from holding these financial instruments is minimal.

***Investments***

The Company invests in various debt and equity securities which are primarily held in the custody of major financial institutions. Debt securities consist of certificates of deposit, U.S. government and agency securities, commercial paper, and corporate notes and bonds. Equity securities consist of mutual funds. The Company records these investments in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses for debt securities available-for-sale are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders' deficit. Unrealized gains or losses for equity securities are included in other income (expense), net, a component of condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company considers all debt securities available-for-sale, including those with maturity dates beyond 12 months, as available to support current operational liquidity needs. The Company classifies its investments as current based on the nature of the investments and their availability for use in current operations.

We perform an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a debt security available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position has suffered impairment as a result of credit loss or other factors. A debt security is considered impaired if its fair value is less than its amortized cost basis at the reporting date. If we intend to sell the debt security or if it is more-likely-than-not that we will be required to sell the debt security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, the impairment is recognized and

------

the unrealized loss is recorded as a direct write-down of the security's amortized cost basis with an offsetting entry to earnings. If we do not intend to sell the debt security or believe we will not be required to sell the debt security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, the impairment is assessed to determine if a credit loss component exists. We use a discounted cash flow method to determine the credit loss component. In the event a credit loss exists, an allowance for credit losses is recorded in earnings for the credit loss component of the impairment while the remaining portion of the impairment attributable to factors other than credit loss is recognized, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The amount of impairment recognized due to credit factors is limited to the excess of the amortized cost basis over the fair value of the security.

***Inventory***

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company determines the cost of inventory using the first-in, first-out method. The Company estimates the recoverability of inventory by reference to internal estimates of future demands and product life cycles, including expiration. The Company periodically analyzes its inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire prior to expected sale or has a cost basis in excess of its estimated realizable value and records a charge to expense for such inventory as appropriate.

We charge cost of sales for inventory provisions to write-down our inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value or for obsolete or excess inventory. Most of our inventory provisions relate to excess quantities of products, based on our inventory levels and future product purchase commitments compared to assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Once inventory has been written-off or written-down, it creates a new cost basis for the inventory that is not subsequently written-up.

See Note 6, Inventory, for further information and related disclosures.

***Accounts Receivable***

Accounts receivable consist of amounts due to the Company for sales to customers and are based on what we expect to collect in exchange for goods and services. Receivables are considered past due based on the contractual payment terms and are written off if reasonable collection efforts prove unsuccessful.

We maintain an allowance for credit losses for expected uncollectible accounts receivable, which is recorded as an offset to accounts receivable and changes in such are classified as general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. We assess collectibility by reviewing accounts receivable on a collective basis where similar characteristics exist and on an individual basis when we identify specific customers with known disputes or collectibility issues. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, we consider historical collectibility and make judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on credit evaluations. Our customers typically have good credit quality. We also consider customer-specific information, current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions to inform adjustments to historical loss data.

The allowance for credit losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 is comprised of the following (in thousands):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Three Months Ended September 30,** | **Three Months Ended September 30,** | **Nine Months Ended September 30,** | **Nine Months Ended September 30,** |
| | **2022** | **2021** | **2022** | **2021** |
| Beginning balance | $150 | $213 | 140 | 445 |
| (Reversals) provisions, net | (12) | 78 | 18 | 114 |
| Write-offs |  | (77) | (20) | (345) |
|  | $138 | $214 | $138 | $214 |

---

The write-offs recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were in connection with a one-time restructuring activity of the Company's Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") business. These credit losses were incurred as part of the Company terminating agreements with select distributors in geographies it exited and did not pursue collection of these accounts receivables.

------

***Property and Equipment***

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and expenditures for major improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses from retirement or replacement are included in costs and expenses. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets, ranging from one to seven years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the remaining life of the lease or the life of the asset, whichever is less.

***Instruments Classified as Property and Equipment***

Property and equipment includes Accelerate Pheno systems (also referred to as instruments) used for sales demonstrations, instruments under rental agreements and instruments used for research and development. Depreciation expense for instruments used for sales demonstrations is recorded as a component of sales, general and administrative expense. Depreciation expense for instruments placed at customer sites pursuant to reagent rental agreements is recorded as a component of cost of sales. Depreciation expense for instruments used in our laboratory and research is recorded as a component of research and development expense. The Company retains title to these instruments and depreciates them over five years. Losses from the retirement of returned instruments are included in costs and expenses.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of its instruments whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, and at least annually. This evaluation is based on our estimate of future cash flows and the estimated fair value of such long-lived assets, and provides for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows or the estimated fair value are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of instruments. No impairment charges have been recorded as of for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

See Note 7, Property and Equipment, for further information and related disclosures.

***Long-lived Assets***

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company continuously evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets based on estimated future cash flows from and the estimated fair value of such long-lived assets, and provides for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows or the estimated fair value are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the long-lived asset.

***Warranty Reserve (As Restated)***

Instruments are typically sold with a one year limited warranty, while kits and accessories are typically sold with a sixty days limited warranty. Accordingly, a provision for the estimated cost of the limited warranty repair is recorded at the time revenue is recognized. Our estimated warranty provision is based on our estimate of future repair events and the related estimated cost of repairs. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of the warranty reserve and adjusts the amount as necessary. The cost incurred for these provisions is included in cost of sales on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

***Convertible Notes***

On January 1, 2022 the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). As a result, the Notes are now accounted for as a single liability measured at their amortized cost. The Notes are no longer bifurcated between debt and equity and are instead accounted for entirely as debt at face value net of any discount or premium and issuance costs. Interest expense is comprised of (1) cash interest payments, (2) amortization of any debt discounts or premiums based on the original offering, and (3) amortization of any debt issuance costs. Gain or loss on extinguishment of Notes is calculated as the difference between the (i) fair value of the consideration transferred and (ii) the sum of the carrying value of the debt at the time of repurchase.

See Note 2, Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements and Note 10, Convertible Notes, for further information and related disclosures.

***Revenue Recognition***

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised good or service is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Sales taxes are excluded from revenues.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Identification of the contract with a customer

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Determination of the transaction price

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Recognition of revenue as we satisfy a performance obligation

Product revenue is derived from the sale or rental of instruments and sales of related consumable products. When an instrument is sold, revenue is generally recognized upon installation of the unit consistent with contract terms, which do not include a right of return. When a consumable product is sold, revenue is generally recognized upon shipment. Invoices are generally issued when revenue is recognized. Payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant.

Service revenue is derived from the sale of extended service agreements which are generally non-cancellable. This revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term beginning on the effective date of the contract because the Company is standing ready to provide services. Invoices are generally issued annually and coincide with the beginning of individual service terms.

The Company's contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The Company generally determines relative standalone selling prices based on the price charged to customers for each individual performance obligation.

------

Sales commissions earned by the Company's sales force are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. The Company has determined these costs would have an amortization period of less than one year and has elected to recognize them as an expense when incurred. Contract asset opening and closing balances were immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

***Gross Profit and Gross Margin***

Gross profit consists of total revenue, net of allowances, less cost of sales. Cost of sales includes cost of materials, direct labor, equity-based compensation, facility and other manufacturing overhead costs for consumable tests and instruments sold to customers. Cost of sales for instruments also includes depreciation on revenue generating instruments that have been placed with our customers under a reagent rental agreement. Cost of sales includes repair and maintenance cost for instruments covered by a service agreement or instruments covered by a reagent rental agreement. Cost of sales also includes warranty related costs.

The Company's overall gross margin was 20% and 32% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 25% and 35% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decreases were primarily due to increases in the costs to manufacture consumables due to supply chain inflationary factors and a decrease in our average unit sales price period over period.

***Shipping and Handling***

Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included as a component of revenue. The corresponding expense incurred with third party carriers is included as a component of sales, general and administrative costs on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

***Leases***

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease and the type of lease at inception. The Company classifies leases as finance leases (lessee) or sales-type leases (lessor) when there is either a transfer of ownership of the underlying asset by the end of the lease term, the lease contains an option to purchase the asset that we are reasonably certain will be exercised, the lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the asset, the present value of the lease payments and any residual value guarantee equals or substantially exceeds all the fair value of the asset, or the asset is of such a specialized nature that it will have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. Payments contingent on future events (i.e. based on usage) are considered variable and excluded from lease payments for the purposes of classification and initial measurement. Several of our leases include options to renew or extend the term upon mutual agreement of the parties and others include one-year extensions exercisable by the lessee. None of our leases contain residual value guarantees, restrictions, or covenants.

To determine whether a contract contains a lease, the Company uses its judgment in assessing whether the lessor retains a material amount of economic benefit from an underlying asset, whether explicitly or implicitly identified, which party holds control over the direction and use of the asset, and whether any substantive substitution rights over the asset exist.

***Leases as Lessee***

Operating leases are included in right-of-use ("ROU") assets and corresponding lease liabilities, and finance leases are included in ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. These assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and their related liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Typically, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement in determining the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate when readily determinable. ROU assets are net of lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, which may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option.

------

Our operating leases consist primarily of leased office, factory, and laboratory space in the U.S. and office space in Europe, have between two and six-year terms, and typically contain penalizing, early-termination provisions. Our finance leases consist of leased equipment and have three-year terms.

***Leases as Lessor***

The Company leases instruments to customers under "reagent rental" agreements, whereby the customer agrees to purchase consumable products over a stated term, typically five years or less, for a volume-based price that includes an embedded rental for the instruments. When collectibility is probable, that amount is recognized as income at lease commencement for sales-type leases and as product is shipped, typically in a straight–line pattern, over the term for operating leases, which typically include a termination without cause or penalty provision given a short notice period.

Consideration is allocated between lease and non-lease components based on stand-alone selling price in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Net investment in sales-type leases are included within our condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of other current assets and other non-current assets, which include the present value of lease payments not yet received and the present value of the residual asset, which are determined using the information available at commencement, including the lease term, estimated useful life, rate implicit in the lease, and expected fair value of the instrument.

***Nonqualified Cash Deferral Plan***

The Company's Cash Deferral Plan (the "Deferral Plan") provides certain key employees with an opportunity to defer the receipt of such participant's base salary. The Deferral Plan is intended to be a nonqualified deferred compensation plan that complies with the provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. All of the investments held in the Deferral Plan are equity securities consisting of mutual funds and recorded at fair value with changes in the investments' fair value recognized as earnings in the period they occur. The corresponding liability for the Deferral Plan is included in other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

***Equity-Based Compensation***

The Company may award stock options, RSUs, performance-based awards and other equity-based instruments to its employees, directors and consultants. Compensation cost related to equity-based instruments is based on the fair value of the instrument on the grant date, and is recognized over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for each tranche (an accelerated attribution method) except for performance-based awards. Performance-based awards vest based on the achievement of performance targets. Compensation costs associated with performance-based awards are recognized over the requisite service period based on probability of achievement. Performance-based awards require management to make assumptions regarding the likelihood of achieving performance targets.

The Company estimates the fair value of service based and performance based stock option awards, including modifications of stock option awards, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model derives the fair value of stock options based on certain assumptions related to expected stock price volatility, expected option life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Volatility: The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock price over the most recent period commensurate with the expected term of the stock option award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Expected term: The estimated expected term for employee awards is based on a simplified method that considers an insufficient history of employee exercises. For consultant awards, the estimated expected term is the same as the life of the award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Risk-free interest rate: The risk-free interest rate is based on published U.S. Treasury rates for a term commensurate with the expected term.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Dividend yield: The dividend yield is estimated as zero as the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not have any plans to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.

------

The Company records the fair value of RSUs or stock grants based on the published closing market price on the day before the grant date.

The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur rather than on an estimated basis.

The Company also has an employee stock purchase program whereby eligible employees can elect payroll deductions that are subsequently used to purchase common stock at a discounted price. There is no compensation recorded for this program as (i) the purchase discount does not exceed the issuance costs that would have been incurred to raise a significant amount of capital by a public offering, (ii) substantially all employees that meet limited employment qualifications may participate on an equitable basis, and (iii) the plan doesn't incorporate option features that would require compensation to be recorded.

See Note 13, Employee Equity-Based Compensation for further information.

***Deferred Tax***

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period represents the deferred tax provision or benefit for the period. Effects of changes in enacted tax laws in deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as an adjustment to the tax provision or benefit in the period of enactment.

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, to account for any uncertainty in income taxes with respect to the accounting for all tax positions taken (or expected to be taken) on any income tax return. This guidance applies to all open tax periods in all tax jurisdictions in which the Company is required to file an income tax return. Under U.S. GAAP, in order to recognize an uncertain tax benefit the taxpayer must be more likely than not certain of sustaining the position, and the measurement of the benefit is calculated as the largest amount that is more likely than not to be realized upon resolution of the position. Interest and penalties, if any, would be recorded within tax expense.

***Foreign Currency Translation and Foreign Currency Transactions***

Adjustments resulting from translating foreign functional currency financial statements into U.S. Dollars are included in the foreign currency translation adjustment, a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' deficit.

The Company has assets and liabilities, including receivables and payables, which are denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. These balance sheet items are subject to re-measurement, the impact of which is recorded in foreign currency exchange gain and loss, within the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

***Loss Per Share***

Basic loss per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of shares issuable from stock options, unvested RSUs and the Warrant. Potentially dilutive common shares would also include common shares that would be outstanding if the Notes and the Series A Preferred Stock outstanding at the balance sheet date were converted and shares issuable in connection with the March 2022 Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined in Note 18). Diluted earnings are not presented when the effect of adding such additional common shares is antidilutive.

See Note 12, Loss Per Share, for further information.

------

***Comprehensive Loss***

In addition to net loss, comprehensive loss includes all changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners. The Company holds debt securities as available-for-sale and records the change in fair market value as a component of comprehensive loss. The Company also has adjustments resulting from translating foreign functional currency financial statements into U.S. Dollars which is included as a component of comprehensive loss.

**NOTE 2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS**

***Standards that were recently adopted***

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This update simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments by removing the beneficial conversion and cash conversion separation models for convertible instruments. Under the update, the embedded conversion features are no longer separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features that are not required to be accounted for as derivatives or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. The update also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity's own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, ASU 2020-06 requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share and the treasury stock method will no longer be available. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2022 through application of the modified retrospective method of transition. The Company applied the standard to the Notes outstanding as of January 1, 2022, as discussed in Note 10, Convertible Notes. As a result, the Notes are now accounted for as a single liability measured at their amortized cost. The Notes are no longer bifurcated between debt and equity and are instead accounted for entirely as debt at face value net of any discount or premium and issuance costs. Interest expense is comprised of (1) cash interest payments, (2) amortization of any debt discounts or premiums based on the original offering, and (3) amortization of any debt issuance costs. On January 1, 2022, the cumulative effect of adoption resulted in an increase in the net carrying amount of the Notes, of $11.5 million, a decrease in additional-paid-in-capital of $37.4 million, and a decrease in accumulated deficit of $25.9 million. ASU 2020-06 requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share. This change has no impact on the Company given the Company was already using the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings per share.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Topic 815 - 40). ASU 2021-04 codifies the final consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) on how an issuer should account for modifications made to equity-classified written call options (hereafter referred to as a warrant to purchase the issuer's common stock). The guidance in the ASU requires the issuer to treat a modification of an equity-classified warrant that does not cause the warrant to become liability-classified as an exchange of the original warrant for a new warrant. This guidance applies whether the modification is structured as an amendment to the terms and conditions of the warrant or as termination of the original warrant and issuance of a new warrant. This ASU was adopted January 1, 2022, and did not impact the Company's consolidated financial statements at January 1, 2022.

***Standards not yet adopted***

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method. ASU 2022-01 is related to the portfolio layer method of hedge accounting. The amendments in this update clarify the accounting and promote consistency in reporting for hedges where the portfolio layer method is applied. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect the update to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. ASU 2022-02 relates to troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") and vintage disclosures for financing receivables. The amendments in this update eliminate the accounting guidance for TDRs by creditors while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The amendments also require disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not

------

expect the update to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

**NOTE 3. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK**

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable.

The Company has financial institutions for banking operations that hold 10% or more of the Company's cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2022, three of the Company's financial institutions held 74%, 12% and 13% of the Company's cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2021, two of the Company's financial institutions held 72% and 13% of the Company's cash and cash equivalents.

The Company grants credit to domestic and international customers. Exposure to losses on accounts receivable is principally dependent on each client's financial position. The Company had one customer that accounted for 16% and 13% of the Company's net accounts receivable balance as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company did not have any customers that represented 10% or more of the Company's total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

**NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS** 

The following tables represent the financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements of the Company and the valuation approach applied to each class of financial instruments at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

Highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at time of purchase are included in cash and cash equivalents on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Level 1 assets are priced using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets which include money market funds, U.S. Treasury securities and mutual funds as these specific assets are liquid.

Level 2 available-for-sale securities are priced using quoted market prices for similar instruments or nonbinding market prices that are corroborated by observable market data. The Company uses inputs such as actual trade data, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, and other similar data, which are obtained from quoted market prices, independent pricing vendors, or other sources, to determine the ultimate fair value of these assets and liabilities. The Company uses such pricing data as the primary input to make its assessments and determinations as to the ultimate valuation of its investment portfolio and has not made, during the periods presented, any material adjustments to such inputs.

At September 30, 2022, the Notes had an outstanding principal amount of $56.6 million with a fair value of $51.7 million. At December 31, 2021, the Notes had an outstanding principal amount of $120.5 million with a fair value of $89.4 million. The fair value of the Notes represents a Level 2 measurement. The fair value of the Notes is typically correlated to the Company's stock price and as a result, significant changes to the Company's stock price will have a significant impact on the calculated fair value. See Note 10, Convertible Notes for further detail on the Notes.

The Secured Note is an instrument measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. The estimated fair value of the Secured Note on August 15, 2022 was $16.0 million. See Note 11, Long-Term Debt Related-Party for further detail on the Secured Note.

The warrant is an instrument measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. The estimated fair value of the warrant on August 15, 2022 was $3.8 million. See Note 11, Long-Term Debt Related-Party for further detail on the Company's warrant with a related-party.

**NOTE 8. DEFERRED REVENUE AND REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS**

Deferred revenue consists of amounts received for products or services not yet delivered or earned. If we anticipate revenue will not be earned within the following twelve months, the amount is reported as other non-current liabilities. A summary of the balances as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 follows (in thousands):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **September 30,**<br>**2022** | **December 31,**<br>**2021** |

We recognized $0.2 million and $0.4 million of revenues that were included in the beginning contract liabilities balances during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.3 million of revenues that were included in the beginning contract liabilities balances during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. No material amount of revenue recognized during the period was from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods.

***Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations***

As of September 30, 2022, $9.0 million of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations. This balance primarily relates to product shipments for reagents sold to customers under sales-type lease agreements. These agreements have between two and four year terms and revenue is recognized as product is shipped, typically on a straight-line basis. The remaining balance relates to executed service contracts that begin as warranty periods expire. These service contracts typically provide for four-year terms and revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis.

The Company elects not to disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

**NOTE 9. LONG-TERM DEBT**

The Company entered into two loan agreements with one financing company in 2020. Loan proceeds were $0.2 million, with interest rates ranging from 9.8% to 12.4% and maturities becoming due through 2022.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, long-term debt consisted of the following (in thousands):

***Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) Loan***

On April 14, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note (the "PPP Note") evidencing an unsecured loan in the amount of $4.8 million made to the Company under the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.

On July 15, 2021, the Small Business Administration ("SBA") informed the Company of its full forgiveness for the entire PPP Note amount plus accrued interest, which was $4.8 million as of the date of forgiveness. The SBA's determination of loan forgiveness does not preclude further investigation by the SBA according to its rules and regulations. With approval of the Company's application for forgiveness the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of the entire PPP Note amount of $4.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

**NOTE 10. CONVERTIBLE NOTES (As Restated)** 

The Notes are the Company's senior unsecured obligations and mature on March 15, 2023 (the "Maturity Date"), unless earlier repurchased or converted into shares of common stock under certain circumstances described below. Upon conversion of the Notes, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company's common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Notes. The initial conversion rate of the Notes is 32.3428 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $30.92 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. The Company pays interest on the Notes semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year. The Company's Notes have a fixed coupon rate of 2.5% per annum on the principal amount.

The Company incurred issuance costs related to the issuance of the Notes which is amortized over the five-year contractual term of the Notes using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate on the Notes, including accretion of the Notes to par was 3.2%.

The Notes include customary terms and covenants, including certain events of default upon which the Notes may be due and payable immediately. Holders have the option to convert the Notes in multiples of $1,000 principal amount at any time prior to December 15, 2022, but only in the following circumstances:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if the Company's stock price exceeds 130% of the conversion price for 20 of the last 30 trading days of any calendar quarter after June 30, 2018;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• during the 5 business day period after any 5 consecutive trading day period in which the Notes' trading price is less than 98% of the product of the common stock price times the conversion rate; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the occurrence of certain corporate events, such as a change of control, merger or liquidation.

At any time on or after December 15, 2022, a holder may convert its Notes in multiples of $1,000 principal amount. Holders of the Notes who convert their Notes in connection with a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture pursuant to which the Notes were issued) are, under certain circumstances, entitled to an increase in the conversion rate. In addition, in the event of a fundamental change or event of default prior to the

------

Maturity Date, holders will, subject to certain conditions, have the right, at their option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of the Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the repurchase date. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, no Notes were convertible pursuant to their original terms.

| Total convertible notes | $56325 |

---

In connection with the Notes issuance, the Company entered into a prepaid forward stock repurchase transaction ("Prepaid Forward") with a financial institution ("Forward Counterparty"). Pursuant to the Prepaid Forward, the Company used approximately $45.1 million of the net proceeds from its issuance of the Notes to fund the Prepaid Forward. The aggregate number of shares of the Company's common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward was approximately 1,858,500. The expiration date for the Prepaid Forward is March 15, 2023, although it may be settled earlier in whole or in part. Upon settlement of the Prepaid Forward, at expiration or upon any early settlement, the Forward Counterparty will deliver to the Company the number of shares of common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward or the portion thereof being settled early. The shares purchased under the Prepaid Forward are treated as treasury stock and not outstanding for purposes of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share, but will remain outstanding for corporate law purposes, including for purposes of any future stockholders' votes, until the Forward Counterparty delivers the shares underlying the Prepaid Forward to the Company. The Company's Prepaid Forward hedge transaction exposes the Company to credit risk to the extent that its counterparty may be unable to meet the terms of the transaction. The Company mitigates this risk by limiting its

------

counterparty to a major financial institution.

***2021 Exchange Transactions***

In September 2021, the Company entered into separate exchange agreements with certain holders of the Notes. Under the terms of the exchange agreements, such holders agreed to exchange Notes held by them for shares of the Company's common stock (the "2021 Exchange Transactions"). During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, such holders exchanged $46.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by them for 5,945,718 shares of the Company's common stock. The net carrying value of the Notes exchanged was $40.4 million which the Company repurchased for $34.5 million of common stock. The Company also incurred $0.8 million of reacquisition costs, which was recorded as an offset to gain on extinguishment of debt. The 2021 Exchange Transaction resulted in a net gain of $5.0 million reflected in other income (expense), net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. See Note 18, Stockholders' Equity for additional information.

***March 2022 Exchange Transaction***

On March 21, 2022, the Company entered into a privately negotiated exchange agreement (the "March 2022 Exchange Agreement") with a holder of the Notes. Under the terms of the March 2022 Exchange Agreement, the note holder agreed to exchange with the Company $14.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by it in eight equal tranches as follows for each tranche: (a) 22.64 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exchanged, plus (b) an additional number of shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exchanged equal to the sum, for each of the trading days during a separate agreed upon reference period for each tranche commencing on March 21, 2022 for the first tranche, of the quotient of (i) $155.67 divided by (ii) the daily volume-weighted average price for such trading day (collectively, the "March 2022 Exchange Transaction"). The closing of the March 2022 Exchange Transaction occurred in eight tranches ("Obligation to Exchange"), with the first closing occurring on March 29, 2022 and the last closing on May 18, 2022.

On March 21, 2022 the Obligation to Exchange the $14.0 million of Notes in the March 2022 Exchange Transaction was accounted for as an extinguishment and was replaced by new notes with an embedded feature (the "New Notes"). The New Notes were elected to be carried using the fair value option. The New Notes were recorded at fair value on initial measurement and remeasured at fair value ("mark to market") at each reporting period with changes in fair value reported in other income and expense, net. This fair value election was exclusive to the New Notes and did not extend to other Notes. The embedded feature was no longer outstanding on September 30, 2022 as the New Notes were exchanged and the Obligation to Exchange retired on May 18, 2022.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 the holder of the Notes exchanged $14.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by it for 10,798,482 shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to the March 2022 Exchange Agreement. The net carrying value of the Notes exchanged was $14.0 million which the Company repurchased for $10.2 million of common stock. The Company also incurred $0.2 million of reacquisition costs, which was recorded as an offset to gain on extinguishment of debt. This exchange transaction resulted in a net gain of $3.6 million reflected in other income (expense), net for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. See Note 18, Stockholders' Equity for additional information.

***August 2022 Exchange Transaction***

On August 15, 2022, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the "August 2022 Exchange Agreement") with the Jack W. Schuler Living Trust (the "Schuler Trust"), as discussed in Note 11, Long-Term Debt Related-Party. Under the terms of the August 2022 Exchange Agreement, the Schuler Trust agreed to exchange with the Company $49.9 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by it for (a) the Secured Note in an aggregate principal amount of $34.9 million and (b) the Warrant to acquire the Company's common stock.

Under ASC 470-50-40, the transaction qualified as an extinguishment of debt. Under extinguishment accounting, the Notes were derecognized and the new instruments, which include the Secured Note and the Warrant, were recorded at their fair values. The difference between the fair values of the new instruments and the net carrying amount of the Notes being extinguished was included in the calculation of gain. The gain from the extinguishment of the Notes was treated as a capital transaction. The Secured Note includes various features that were advantageous to the Company, including a lower interest rate compared to current market rates and a share conversion feature. There were no other negotiating parties that had similar terms or economic outcomes. As such, the exchange was considered not to be an arm's length transaction, and therefore the resulting gain was accounted

------

for as a capital transaction. The net carrying amount of the extinguished Notes was $49.6 million. The estimated fair value of the Secured Note and the Warrant on August 15, 2022 was $16.0 million and $3.8 million, respectively, which resulted in a net gain of $29.8 million that was recorded to contributed capital. See Note 18, Stockholders' Equity and Note 11, Long-Term Debt Related-Party for additional information.

**NOTE 11. LONG-TERM DEBT RELATED-PARTY**

On August 15, 2022, the Company entered into the August 2022 Exchange Agreement with the Schuler Trust, a holder of the Notes. Jack Schuler, who serves as a member of the Company's board of directors, is the sole trustee of the Schuler Trust. Under the terms of the August 2022 Exchange Agreement, the Schuler Trust agreed to exchange with the Company $49.9 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by it for (a) a secured promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of $34.9 million (the "Secured Note") and (b) a Warrant to acquire the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $2.12 per share (the "Warrant").

The Secured Note has a scheduled maturity date of August 15, 2027 and will be repayable upon written demand at any time on or after such date. The Company may, at its option, repay the note in (i) cash or (ii) in the form of common stock of the Company, in a number of shares that is obtained by dividing the total amount of such payment by $2.12. The Secured Note bears interest at a rate of 5.0% per annum, payable at the option of the Company in the same form, at the earlier of (i) any prepayment of principal and (ii) maturity. The Company may prepay the Secured Note at any time without premium or penalty. The Secured Note is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, subject to customary exceptions and limitations, pursuant to a security agreement, dated as of August 15, 2022. The Secured Note does not restrict the incurrence of future indebtedness by the Company but shall become subordinated in right of payment and lien priority upon the request of any future senior lender.

Under ASC 470-50-40, the transaction qualified as an extinguishment of debt. Under extinguishment accounting, the Notes were derecognized and the new instruments, which include the Secured Note and the Warrant, were recorded at their fair values. See Note 10, Convertible Notes for additional information. The Secured Notes is an instrument measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. To estimate the Secured Note's fair value, the Company applied a Monte Carlo simulation which simulated the share price of the Company over the remaining term to the maturity date of the Secured Note. The simulated per-share price in a given iteration determined if the Company settled in cash or shares. The estimated fair value of the Secured Note on August 15, 2022 was $16.0 million. This valuation estimated an issuance discount of $18.9 million. The effective interest rate on the Secured Note is 24.60%.

The carrying value of the Secured Note at September 30, 2022 consisted of the following (in thousands):

---

|:---|:---|
| | **September 30,**<br>**2022** |

***Warrant***

The Warrant may be exercised from February 15, 2023 through the earlier of (i) August 15, 2029 and (ii) the consummation of certain acquisition transactions involving the Company, as set forth in the Warrant. The Warrant is exercisable for up to 2,471,710 shares of common stock. The Warrant meets the criteria for classification in stockholders' equity and was recorded in equity and initially measured at fair value. The Warrant was measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of the warrant on August 15, 2022 was $3.8 million.

The table below summarizes the inputs used to calculate the estimated fair value of the Warrant issued during the three months ended September 30, 2022:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Contractual term (in years) | 7.0 |
| Volatility | 76.10% |
| Expected dividends |  |
| Risk free interest rates | 2.86% |

**NOTE 12. LOSS PER SHARE**

Basic net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Basic and diluted net loss per share are the same because all outstanding common stock equivalents have been excluded, as they are anti-dilutive due to the Company's losses.

The following potentially issuable common shares were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because they would have an anti-dilutive effect for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Three Months Ended September 30,** | **Three Months Ended September 30,** | **Nine Months Ended September 30,** | **Nine Months Ended September 30,** |
| | **2022** | **2021** | **2022** | **2021** |
| Shares issuable upon the release of RSUs | 4619 | 2320 | 4619 | 2320 |
| Shares issuable upon exercise of stock options | 5665 | 7634 | 5665 | 7634 |
| Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant | 2472 |  | 2472 |  |
|  | 12756 | 9954 | 12756 | 9954 |

---

Potentially dilutive common shares would include common shares that would be outstanding if Notes convertible at the balance sheet date were converted. As discussed in Note 10, Convertible Notes, upon conversion of the Notes, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company's common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company's election. The initial conversion rate of the Notes is 32.3428 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $30.92 per share of common stock. As of September 30, 2022, no Notes were convertible pursuant to the original terms. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Notes based on the initial conversion rate was approximately 1,830,441 shares as of September 30, 2022. Historically the Company has engaged in privately negotiated exchanges of Notes for a substantially greater number of shares than the initial conversion rate of the Notes described above because the Company's stock price at the time of such exchanges was significantly less than the $30.92 initial conversion price of the Notes.

In connection with the Notes, the Company entered into a prepaid forward stock repurchase transaction. The aggregate number of shares of the Company's common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward was approximately 1,858,500. The shares purchased under the Prepaid Forward are treated as treasury stock and not outstanding for purposes of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share, but will remain outstanding for

------

corporate law purposes, including for purposes of any future stockholders' votes, until the Forward Counterparty delivers the shares underlying the Prepaid Forward to the Company.

Potentially dilutive common shares include common shares that would be outstanding if Series A Preferred Stock were converted into common stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time into one share of the Company's common stock. Additionally, each share of Series A Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into one share of the Company's common stock immediately upon a sale of all outstanding stock of the Company or a merger of the Company into another corporation where the pre-merger Company's stockholders cease to be the controlling stockholders of the post-merger corporation. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock is 3,954,546 as of September 30, 2022.

As discussed in Note 18, Stockholders' Equity, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Schuler Trust for the issuance and sale by the Company of an aggregate of 2,439,024 shares of the Company's common stock. The closing of the transaction is expected to occur on December 30, 2022, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and is considered an equity forward agreement. The shares to be issued from this agreement were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because they would have an anti-dilutive effect due to net losses.

As discussed in Note 11, Long-Term Debt Related-Party, the Company may, at its option, repay the Secured Note in (i) cash or (ii) in the form of common stock of the Company, in a number of shares that is obtained by dividing the total amount of such payment by $2.12. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Secured Note and accrued interest was approximately 16,478,066 and 103,834 shares respectively, as of September 30, 2022. The shares issuable in connection with a repayment of the Secured Note were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because they would have an anti-dilutive effect due to net losses.

As of September 30, 2022, unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options and unvested RSUs was $2.3 million and $7.8 million, respectively. This is expected to be recognized over the years 2022 through 2027.

Included in the above-noted stock options outstanding and stock compensation expense are performance-based stock options which vest only upon the achievement of certain targets. Performance-based stock options are generally granted at-the-money, contingently vest over a period of 1 to 2 years, depending on the nature of the performance goal, and have contractual lives of 10 years. These options were valued in the same manner as the time-based options, with the assumption that performance goals will be achieved. The inputs for expected volatility, expected dividends, and risk-free rate used in estimating those options' fair value are the same as the time-based

------

options issued under the Company's equity incentive plans. The expected term for performance-based stock options is 5 to 7 years. However, the Company only recognizes stock compensation expense to the extent that the targets are determined to be probable of being achieved, which triggers the vesting of the performance options.

During 2020, the Company granted 105,000 performance-based stock options. Of these performance-based stock options, performance obligations had been met for 90,000 options which became exercisable in a prior period. Of these performance-based stock options, 90,000 options expired during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. No performance-based stock options were outstanding as of September 30, 2022.

Included in the above-noted RSU and restricted stock award outstanding amounts are performance-based RSUs which vest only upon the achievement of certain targets. Performance-based RSUs contingently vest over a period of 1 to 3 years, depending on the nature of the performance goal, and have contractual lives of 10 years. These units were valued in the same manner as other RSUs, based on the published closing market price on the day before the grant date. However, the Company only recognizes stock compensation expense to the extent that the targets are determined to be probable of being achieved, which triggers the vesting of the performance options.

During 2020, the Company granted performance-based RSUs of which 165,974 were outstanding as of September 30, 2022. No changes occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

During 2021, the Company granted performance-based RSUs of which 111,806 were outstanding as of September 30, 2022. No changes occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

**NOTE 14. INCOME TAXES**

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company did not carry an income tax provision amount as the Company does not recognize tax benefits from current year tax losses in the U.S. and other foreign jurisdictions. The Company's tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 differs from the tax expense computed by applying the U.S. statutory tax rate to its year-to-date pre-tax loss of $47.9 million, as no tax benefits were recorded for tax losses generated in the U.S. and other foreign jurisdictions due to the valuation allowance. At September 30, 2022, the Company had deferred tax assets primarily related to U.S. federal and state tax loss carryforwards and a deferred tax liability related to amortization of the Notes. The Company provided a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets as future realization of such assets is not more likely than not to occur.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions pursuant to the recognition and measurement criteria under ASC 740, Income Taxes. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we did not note any significant changes to our uncertain tax positions. We do not anticipate significant changes to uncertain tax positions within the next 12 months.

**NOTE 15. COMMITMENTS**

During April 2022, the Company entered into a non-cancellable purchase obligation with a supplier to acquire raw materials for a total commitment of $11.9 million. Under the terms of this agreement the Company has until March 15, 2027 to take delivery of purchased items. This commitment was entered into to ensure proper material quantities to develop and commercialize our next generation AST platform.

As of September 30, 2022 the commitment remains $11.9 million as the Company has not taken delivery of any inventory.

**NOTE 18. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY**

***December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement***

During December 2020, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement") with Jack W. Schuler, John Patience, Matthew Strobeck, Mark C. Miller, Thomas D. Brown and Jack Phillips, or entities affiliated with such persons (collectively, the "Original Purchasers"), for the issuance and sale by the Company of an aggregate of 4,166,663 shares of the Company's common stock. Each of Jack W. Schuler, John Patience, Matthew Strobeck, Mark C. Miller, Thomas D. Brown and Jack Phillips is a member of the Company's board of directors. Mr. Phillips also serves as the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer.

The Schuler Trust, which was the entity affiliated with Jack W. Schuler that originally entered into the December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement for the purchase of 3,964,843 shares for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $30.5 million, subsequently entered into an assignment and assumption agreement whereby it assigned all of its rights and obligations as an Original Purchaser to three other entities under the December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement (collectively, the "Schuler Purchasers"). These three entities are related to Jack W. Schuler but are not affiliates of his.

Pursuant to the December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Original Purchasers agreed to purchase the shares at a purchase price (determined in accordance with Nasdaq rules relating to the "market value" of the Company's common stock) of $7.68 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $32 million.

The December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement contemplated that the closing of the purchase and sale of the shares would occur in three tranches, with the first and second tranches having closed on February 19, 2021 and April 9, 2021, respectively, whereby the Company received total proceeds of approximately $21.3 million which were recorded to contributed capital.

On September 17, 2021, the Company entered into a rescission agreement (the "Rescission Agreement") with the Schuler Purchasers and the Schuler Trust pursuant to which, effective as of January 29, 2021, the Company and the Schuler Purchasers agreed to rescind and unwind the December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement for all legal, tax and financial purposes ab initio as if the related transactions, including the issuance and sale of an aggregate of 2,643,228 shares in the first two tranche closings and the third tranche (as discussed below) under the December 2020 Purchase Agreement, had never occurred with respect to the Schuler Purchasers and the Company. The 2,643,228 Shares re-acquired by the Company from the Schuler Purchasers as a result of the Rescission Agreement were treated as a reduction to contributed capital and were not outstanding for purposes of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

On September 30, 2021, the Company closed the final third tranche in connection with the December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement and received total proceeds of approximately $0.5 million. In accordance with the Rescission Agreement, the Schuler Purchasers did not participate in the third tranche. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company issued 201,820 shares and received total proceeds of approximately $1.5 million under the December 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement, which were recorded to contributed capital, after giving effect to the Rescission Agreement.

------

***September 2021 Securities Purchase Agreement***

During September 2021, the Company entered into a new securities purchase agreement (the "September 2021 Securities Purchase Agreement") with the Schuler Purchasers for the issuance and sale by the Company of an aggregate of 3,954,546 shares of the Company's newly designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Shares"). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time into one share of the Company's common stock.

Pursuant to the September 2021 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Schuler Purchasers agreed to purchase the Series A Preferred Shares at a purchase price of $7.70 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $30.5 million.

The September 2021 Securities Purchase Agreement contemplated the closing of the purchase and sale of the Series A Preferred Shares would occur in two tranches. The first tranche closed on the date of the execution of the September 2021 Securities Purchase Agreement whereby an aggregate of 2,636,364 Series A Preferred Shares were issued and sold to the Schuler Purchasers. The Company received total proceeds of approximately $20.3 million, which was recorded to contributed capital during the three months ended September 30, 2021.

The second tranche (the "Tranche Right") had not closed by September 30, 2021 and was concluded to be an obligation of the Schuler Purchasers to acquire, and the Company to sell an additional 1,318,182 Series A Preferred Shares at a purchase price of $7.70 per share for proceeds of $10.2 million, subsequent to the September 30, 2021 balance sheet date. The Company concluded the Tranche Right met the definition of a freestanding financial instrument which was recorded within stockholder's equity. The value of this Tranche Right as September 30, 2021 was $2.5 million. The estimated fair value of the Tranche Right represented a Level 3 measurement as this financial instrument has no market activity. The estimated fair value of the Tranche Right was determined as the excess value of the forward contract when compared to the underlying asset. The fair value of this forward contract can be represented by the difference between the contractual forward price of $7.70 and the prevailing exchange-traded common stock price ($5.81 at September 22, 2021 and $5.83 at September 30, 2021), multiplied by 1,318,182 Series A Preferred Shares. On October 29, 2021, the Company closed the final second tranche in connection with the September 2021 Securities Purchase Agreement whereby the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 1,318,182 Series A Preferred Shares to the Schuler Purchasers and received total proceeds of approximately $10.2 million.

------

Pursuant to the March 2022 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Schuler Trust agreed to purchase the shares at a purchase price (determined in accordance with Nasdaq rules relating to the "market value" of the Company's common stock) of $1.64 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $4.0 million.

***August 2022 Exchange Transaction***

On August 15, 2022, the Company entered into the August 2022 Exchange Agreement with the Schuler Trust. Under the terms of the August 2022 Exchange Agreement, the Schuler Trust agreed to exchange with the Company $49.9 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by it for (a) the Secured Note in an aggregate principal amount of $34.9 million and (b) the Warrant to acquire the Company's common stock. The gain from the extinguishment of the Notes was treated as a capital transaction. The net gain on extinguishment was $29.8 million during the three months ended months ended September 30, 2022, and was recorded to contributed capital. See Note 10, Convertible Notes and Note 11, Long-Term Debt Related-Party for additional information.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Foundation transferred by gift the $42.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes held by the Foundation to the Schuler Initiative Supporting Charitable Trust (the "Supporting Organization"), a tax-exempt organization that is not an affiliate of Jack W. Schuler.

In connection with the 2021 Exchange Transactions the Supporting Organization exchanged $42.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by it for 5,428,699 shares of the Company's common stock. Using the closing stock price on September 22, 2021 of $5.81, the 5,428,699 shares of the Company's common stock were determined to have a value of $31.5 million which was recorded to contributed capital for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

**Overview**

Accelerate is an in vitro diagnostics company dedicated to providing solutions that improve patient outcomes and lower healthcare costs through the rapid diagnosis of serious infections. Microbiology laboratories need new tools to address what the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (the "CDC") calls one of the most serious healthcare threats of our time, antibiotic resistance. A significant contributing factor to the rise of resistance is the overuse and misuse of antibiotics, which is exacerbated by a lack of timely diagnostic results. The delay of identification and antibiotic susceptibility results is often due to the reliance by microbiology laboratories on traditional culture-based tests that often take two to three days to complete. Our technology platform is intended to address these challenges by delivering significantly faster testing of infectious pathogens in various patient sample types.

Our first system to address these challenges is the Accelerate Pheno® system. The Accelerate PhenoTest® BC Kit, which is the first test kit for the system, is indicated as an aid, in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings, in the diagnosis of bacteremia and fungemia, both life-threatening conditions with high morbidity and mortality risk. The device provides identification ("ID") results followed by antibiotic susceptibility testing ("AST") for certain pathogenic bacteria commonly associated with or causing bacteremia. This test kit utilizes genotypic technology to identify infectious pathogens and phenotypic technology to conduct AST, which determines whether live bacterial cells are resistant or susceptible to a particular antimicrobial. This information can be used by physicians to rapidly modify antibiotic therapy to lessen adverse events, improve clinical outcomes, and help preserve the useful life of antibiotics.

On June 30, 2015, we declared our conformity to the European In Vitro Diagnostic Directive 98/79/EC and applied a CE mark to the Accelerate Pheno system and the Accelerate PhenoTest BC Kit for in vitro diagnostic use. On February 23, 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") granted our de novo classification request to market the first version of our Accelerate Pheno system and Accelerate PhenoTest BC Kit.

In 2017, we began selling the Accelerate Pheno system in hospitals in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. Consistent with our "razor" / "razor-blade" business model, revenues to date have principally been generated from the sale or leasing of the instruments and the sale of single use consumable test kits.

In July 2021, we launched our second test for use on the Accelerate Pheno system, the Accelerate PhenoTest BC Kit, AST configuration. This test kit runs antibiotic susceptibility testing following the input of an ID result from another system or methodology. In August 2021, we announced that this new AST only configuration had been CE marked for use in Europe. We believe this new AST only configuration may be attractive to prospective customers who already have a rapid ID system but still need fast susceptibility results to support getting patients on an optimal antibiotic therapy as soon as possible.

In March and May 2022, we announced the launch and commercialization of the Accelerate Arc<sup>TM</sup> system and BC Kit ("Accelerate Arc Products"). This instrument and associated one-time-use test kit automates the clean-up and concentration of microbial cells from positive blood culture samples. In May 2022, we announced IVD registration of the Accelerate Arc system and BC Kit with the FDA as a Class I device exempt from FDA clearance requirements, and in June 2022 we received CE IVDR registration for use in Europe.

------

On October 21, 2022, the "Company announced it has been in recent discussions with the FDA regarding its Accelerate Arc Products. Pursuant to such discussions, the FDA has challenged the Company's commercialization of this product in the United States as a Class I device exempt from 510(k) clearance requirements. The Company is in active dialogue with the FDA to determine the appropriate regulatory pathway. While these discussions are ongoing the Company has put on hold in the United States its sales and marketing efforts of Accelerate Arc Products. The Company will continue marketing and distributing the Accelerate Arc Products in Europe pursuant to its existing CE In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR) registration.

In August 2022, we entered into a sales and marketing agreement (the "Sales and Marketing Agreement") with BD pursuant to which BD will perform certain sales, tactical marketing, technical service call forwarding, order preparation, research and development support and/or regulatory activities on our behalf as our exclusive sales agent for certain of our products, including the Accelerate Pheno system, Accelerate Arc Products. The Sales and Marketing Agreement also grants to BD certain other rights to certain of our future products. We entered into the Sales and Marketing Agreement in order to leverage BD's expansive global sales team, benefit from natural synergies between BD's existing products and those from us, and reduce our sales and marketing expenses.

We continue to invest in new product development to both enhance our existing products and bring new ones to market. Current research and development areas of focus include the potential addition, if authorized by the FDA, of new AST content to our Accelerate Pheno system, additional applications for the Accelerate Arc Products, and a next generation AST platform, which is being developed with the goal to have lower costs, higher throughput, and capability to test a broader set of sample types compared to the current Accelerate Pheno system.

**COVID-19 and Supply Chain Impacts Update**

In late 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, and spread globally. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak resulted in government authorities around the world implementing numerous measures to try to reduce the spread of COVID-19, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home or total lock-down (or similar) orders and business limitations and shutdowns. New cases and hospitalizations have risen and fallen throughout the course of this pandemic. More recently, the emergence and spread of new variants of COVID-19 that are significantly more contagious than previous strains initially led many government authorities and businesses to reimplement prior restrictions in an effort to lessen the spread of COVID-19 and its variants. While most of these restrictions have been lifted, uncertainty remains as to whether additional restrictions may be initiated or again reimplemented in response to surges in COVID-19 cases. The lingering impact of the COVID pandemic continues to create significant volatility throughout the global economy, including supply chain constraints, labor supply issues and higher inflation. Accordingly, it is unclear at this point the full impact COVID-19 and its variants will have on the global economy and on our Company.

The COVID-19 pandemic, containment measures, and downstream impacts to hospital staffing and financial stability have caused, and are continuing to cause, business slowdowns in affected areas, both regionally and worldwide, as well as disruptions to global supply chains and workforce participation. These effects have significantly impacted our business and results of operations, starting in the first quarter of 2020 and continuing through the current quarter, albeit to a lesser degree. For example, we have experienced diminished access to our customers, including hospitals, which has severely limited our ability to sell and, to a lesser degree, implement previously contracted Accelerate Pheno systems. Hospital turnover resulting from burnout and vaccine mandates have further diverted the attention of hospital decision makers. In addition, in certain months with high rates of COVID-19 hospitalization, our Accelerate PhenoTest BC Kit orders declined as many hospitals curtailed elective surgeries to respond to COVID-19.

The reduced new instrument sales and implementations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic lowered our realized and expected revenue growth for 2020 and 2021. In 2022, we began to see many of the detrimental effects of the pandemic on our business discussed above start to ease. For example, in recent quarters, we have seen bloodstream infection testing regain normalcy, which has in turn lessened the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our recurring revenues through the sale of Accelerate PhenoTest BC Kits. However, with the emergence of COVID-19 variants, including the Omicron variant and its sub-variants, vaccine hesitancy and the prevalence of breakthrough cases of infection among fully vaccinated people, there remains uncertainty regarding our access to customers and prospects, demand for our products, and ability to implement our products.

------

As a medical device company, we have not experienced any disruptions to our ability to manufacture our products at our Tucson, Arizona headquarters under the various State of Arizona executive orders relating to the COVID-19 pandemic because we were classified as an essential service. We continue to expect that, should future orders be issued, we would be able to sustain our essential operations. Our third-party manufacturing supply chain for Accelerate Pheno systems and consumable test kits remains stable despite a high-degree of unpredictability in the broader supply chain environment. However, like many industries experiencing inflationary pressures in raw materials, the direct costs to manufacture our products are increasing and delivery schedules elongating.

For example, we are currently experiencing unprecedented cost increases from many of our suppliers primarily as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, labor and supply disruptions and increased inflation. The areas of cost increases include raw materials, components, and value-add supplier labor. We believe that we currently have sufficient inventory of Accelerate Pheno system instruments to limit the impact of cost increases on such devices. However, we are being impacted by cost increases to components and raw materials necessary for the production of our Accelerate Pheno kits. Our ability to pass increased material costs to many of our customers is limited because of long-term sales agreements with limits on price increases. Accordingly, we are closely monitoring the ability of all our suppliers to provide us with necessary materials and services at reasonable costs. See "Risk Factors— Risks Related to Our Business and Strategy—Disruptions in the supply of raw materials, consumable goods or other key product components, or issues associated with their quality from our single source suppliers, could result in a significant disruption in sales and profitability" in Part I, Item 1A of 2021 10-K for additional information.

We continue to monitor the evolving impacts to our business caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We may take further actions required by governmental authorities or that we determine are prudent to support the well-being of our employees, customers, suppliers, business partners and others. The degree to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, continuously evolving and cannot be predicted. This includes, but is not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic and its severity; the emergence and severity of its variants, including the Omicron variant and its subvariants; the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, such as the availability and efficacy of vaccines (particularly with respect to emerging strains of the virus) and potential hesitancy to use them; the financial impact of COVID-19 on hospitals, including to their budget priorities; hospital staffing issues; general economic factors, such as increased inflation; global supply chain constraints and the related increase in costs; labor supply issues; and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.

Accordingly, our current results and financial condition discussed herein may not be indicative of future operating results and trends. Refer to the section entitled "Risk Factors" in the 2021 10-K for additional risks we face due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including risks relating to our supply chain.

**Changes in Results of Operations: Three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to three and nine months ended September 30, 2021**

The following analysis of our operating results contains corrections of errors identified in previously reported amounts. See Part I, Item 1, Note 1, Organization and Nature of Business; Basis of Presentation; Principles of Consolidation; Significant Accounting Policies, for a discussion of the impact of such corrections of errors on our consolidated financial statements.

The Company has provided enhanced information in a tabular format which presents some of the captions presented on the statement of operations less non-cash equity-based compensation expense. These figures are reconciled to the statement of operations and are intended to add additional clarity on the operating performance of the business. The Company believes providing such figures less non-cash equity-based compensation expense provides helpful information for investors in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and our board of directors.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, total revenues decreased due to lower sales of Accelerate PhenoTest instruments compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, total revenues increased primarily due to higher sales of Accelerate PhenoTest BC Kits and service contract revenue, partially offset by a decrease in sales of Accelerate PhenoTest instruments compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Accelerate PhenoTest BC Kit revenue increased as customers completed their instrument verifications and began purchasing kits. Service contract revenue increased as a higher number of customers entered into multi-year service agreements following the expiration of their warranty periods.

---

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, cost of sales increased as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to higher non-cash equity-based compensation expense, partially offset by lower sales of Accelerate PhenoTest instruments.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cost of sales increased as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to higher Accelerate Pheno recurring revenues, increases to our cost of manufacturing consumables and higher non-cash equity-based compensation expense. Our cost of manufacturing has increased as we are experiencing cost increases from many of our suppliers primarily as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, labor and supply disruptions and increased inflation. The areas of cost increases include raw materials, components, and value-add supplier labor.

Cost of sales includes non-cash equity-based compensation expense of $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $0.6 million and $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Non-cash equity-based compensation expense increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 when compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. Non-cash equity-based compensation expense is a component of manufacturing overhead and service cost of sales. Manufacturing overhead is capitalized as inventory and relieved to cost of sales when products are sold to a customers, or when instruments under reagent rentals are amortized to cost of sales.

Cost of sales expenses excluding non-cash equity-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to lower sales of Accelerate PhenoTest instruments.

Cost of sales expenses excluding non-cash equity-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to higher sales of Accelerate PhenoTest BC Kits and service contract revenue, partially offset by a decrease in sales of Accelerate PhenoTest instruments. Other factors include increases to our cost of manufacturing consumables, as described above.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022 the Company incurred other expense, net compared to other income, net for the three months ended September 30, 2021. This change was the result of certain gains on extinguishments of debt for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company entered into a privately negotiated exchange agreements with a holders of the Company's 2.50% Senior Convertible Notes due 2023 (the "Notes") pursuant to which such holders exchanged $46.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by them for 5,945,718 shares of the Company's common stock. The gain on extinguishment of exchanged Notes was $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Small Business Administration informed the Company of its full forgiveness for the entire Paycheck Protection Program loan amount plus accrued interest, which was $4.8 million. With approval of the Company's application for forgiveness the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of $4.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 the Company recognized other income, net compared to other expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This change was the result of higher interest expense and a gain recognized upon extinguishment of the Company's Notes during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

------

The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022. This change in accounting principle resulted in a decrease in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. Other factors include a decrease in aggregate principal amount of the Company's Notes outstanding. Interest expense was $0.2 million and $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $1.8 million and $12.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not carry an income tax provision amount as the Company does not recognize tax benefits from current year tax losses in the U.S. and other foreign jurisdictions.

**Capital Resources and Liquidity**

Since inception, the Company has not achieved profitable operations or positive cash flows from operations. The Company's accumulated deficit totaled $592.6 million as of September 30, 2022. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had net losses of approximately $15.9 million and $47.9 million, respectively, and had negative cash flows from operations of approximately $39.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $55.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and investments, a decrease of $8.2 million from $63.6 million at December 31, 2021. The primary reason for the decrease was due to cash used in operations during the period. The future success of the Company is dependent on its ability to successfully commercialize its products, obtain regulatory clearance for and successfully launch its future product candidates, obtain additional capital and ultimately attain profitable operations. Historically, the Company has funded its operations primarily through multiple equity raises and the issuance of debt (see below and Note 9, Long-Term Debt, Note 10, Convertible Notes and Note 18, Stockholders' Equity in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q/A for additional details).

In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-Q/A, the Company is required to evaluate its financial condition as of the date of filing this Form 10-Q/A pursuant to the requirements of ASC 205-40, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. Management must evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are reissued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management's plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are reissued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management's plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are reissued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are reissued.

Based on its evaluation pursuant to ASC 205-40, the Company has determined that, as of the date of this Form 10-Q/A filing, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, as the Company does not currently have adequate financial resources to pay its outstanding debt obligation under the Notes and to fund its forecasted operating costs for at least twelve months from the filing of this Form 10-Q/A.

Our primary use of capital has been for the development and commercialization of the Accelerate Pheno system and development of complementary products. While the Company continues to explore additional funding in the form of potential equity and/or debt financing arrangements or similar transactions, as well as non-cash means to settle or refinance the Notes, there can be no assurance the necessary financing will be available on

------

terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. If the Company raises funds by issuing equity securities, dilution to stockholders may result. Any equity securities issued may also provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of holders of common stock. If the Company raises funds by issuing debt securities, these debt securities would have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of preferred and common stockholders. The terms of debt securities or borrowings could impose significant restrictions on our operations. Similarly, there can be no assurance that market conditions and refinancing alternatives will be sufficient to settle or refinance the Notes on or prior to their maturity on March 15, 2023. The capital markets have in the past, and may in the future, experience periods of upheaval that could impact the availability and cost of equity and debt financing. In addition, recent and anticipated future increases in federal fund rates set by the Federal Reserve, which serve as benchmark rates on borrowing, and other general economic conditions may impact the cost of debt financing or refinancing existing debt.

Although we are actively considering all available strategic alternatives to maximize value, if we are unable to obtain adequate capital resources to fund operations and address the upcoming maturity of the Notes, we would not be able to continue to operate our business pursuant to our current plans. This may require us to, among other things, materially modify our operations to reduce spending; sell assets or operations; delay the implementation of, or revising certain aspects of, our business strategy; file a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in order to implement a restructuring; or discontinue our operations entirely.

The Company is also subject to lease agreements. The future minimum lease payments under these lease agreements are included in Part I, Item 1, Note 16, Leases.

For more information on the Company's liquidity please see Part I, Item 1, Note 1, Organization and Nature of Business; Basis of Presentation; Principles of Consolidation; Significant Accounting Policies.

As of September 30, 2022, our contractual material cash requirements were as follows:

1) The Company entered into a non-cancellable purchase obligation with a supplier to acquire raw materials for a total commitment of $11.9 million. Under the terms of this agreement the Company has until March 15, 2027 to take delivery of purchased items. As of September 30, 2022 the commitment remains $11.9 million as the Company has not taken delivery of any inventory.

2) The Company may, at its option, repay the note and accrued interest in (i) cash or (ii) in the form of common stock of the Company.

Until such time as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash requirements, beyond what is currently available or on hand, through a combination of equity offerings and debt financings, or exclusive license fees from BD paid pursuant to the Sales and Marketing Agreement.

---

***Cash flows from operating activities***

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was primarily the result of net losses and gain on extinguishment of debt, partially offset by equity-based compensation, and depreciation and amortization.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was primarily the result of net losses and gain on extinguishment of debt, partially offset by equity-based compensation, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, and depreciation and amortization.

The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022. This change in accounting principle resulted in a decrease in amortization of debt discount and issuance costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

***Cash flows from investing activities***

The net cash provided by investing activities was $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company had maturities of marketable securities of $34.5 million which were offset in part by purchases of marketable securities of $27.5 million.

The net cash provided by investing activities was $11.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The Company had maturities of marketable securities of $33.6 million which were offset in part by purchases of marketable securities of $22.3 million.

***Cash flows from financing activities***

The net cash provided by financing activities was $31.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was primarily from the proceeds from the issuance of common stock in connection with a public offering in August 2022.

The net cash provided by financing activities was $24.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company received $22.6 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock in connection with a private placement offering and $1.5 million from the exercise of stock options.

------

***Convertible Notes***

On March 27, 2018, the Company issued $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes. In connection with the offering of the Notes, the Company granted the initial purchasers an option to purchase additional amounts. The option was partially exercised, which resulted in $21.5 million of additional proceeds, for total proceeds of $171.5 million. The Notes mature on March 15, 2023, unless earlier repurchased or converted into shares of common stock subject to certain conditions. Upon conversion of the Notes, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company's common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company's election. The initial conversion rate of the Notes is 32.3428 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $30.92 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. We pay interest on the Notes semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year with interest payments beginning on September 15, 2018.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company entered into separate exchange agreements with certain holders of the Notes. Under the terms of the exchange agreements, such holders agreed to exchange Notes held by it for shares of the Company's common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2021, $51.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes were exchanged for 6,602,974 shares of the Company's common stock in these exchange transactions.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with one holder of the Notes. Under the terms of the exchange agreement, the holder agreed to exchange Notes held by them for shares of the Company's common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, $14.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes were exchanged for 10,798,482 shares of the Company's common stock in this exchange transaction.

On August 15, 2022, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the "August 2022 Exchange Agreement") with the Jack W. Schuler Living Trust (the "Schuler Trust"). Under the terms of the August 2022 Exchange Agreement, the Schuler Trust agreed to exchange with the Company $49.9 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes held by it for (a) a secured promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of $34.9 million (the "Secured Note") and (b) a warrant to acquire the Company's common stock. After giving effect to the exchange transactions described above, the Notes had an outstanding principal amount of $56.6 million as of September 30, 2022. See "—Capital Resources and Liquidity—Secured Note" below for additional information regarding the Secured Note.

In connection with the Notes offering, we entered into a prepaid forward stock repurchase transaction (the "Prepaid Forward") with a financial institution. Pursuant to the Prepaid Forward, we used approximately $45.1 million of the proceeds from the offering of the Notes to pay the prepayment amount. The aggregate number of our common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward is approximately 1,858,500 shares (based on the sale price of $24.25). The expiration date for the Prepaid Forward is March 15, 2023, although it may be settled earlier in whole or in part. Upon settlement of the Prepaid Forward, at expiration or upon any early settlement, the Forward Counterparty will deliver to us the number of shares of common stock underlying the Prepaid Forward or the portion thereof being settled early. The shares purchased under the Prepaid Forward were treated as treasury stock on the condensed consolidated balance sheet (and not outstanding for purposes of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share), but remain outstanding for corporate law purposes, including for purposes of any future stockholders' votes, until the Forward Counterparty delivers the shares underlying the Prepaid Forward to us.

See Part I, Item 1, Note 10, Convertible Notes and Note 11, Long-Term Debt Related-Party for additional information.

***At-The-Market Equity Sales Agreement***

On May 28, 2021, the Company entered into an Equity Sales Agreement (the "ATM Sales Agreement") with William Blair pursuant to which it may sell shares of the Company's common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $50 million, from time to time, through an "at-the-market" equity offering program under which William Blair will act as sales agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of the ATM Sales Agreement, William Blair may sell shares by any method deemed to be an "at-the-market" offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company is not obligated to sell any shares under the ATM Sales Agreement. William Blair is entitled to a commission of 3% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of shares occurring pursuant to the ATM Sales Agreement. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company did not sell any shares of common

------

stock under the ATM Sales Agreement. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had an aggregate of $39.1 million available for future sales under its at-the-market equity offering program.

***Sales of Equity Securities***

On March 24, 2022, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "March 2022 Securities Purchase Agreement") with the Schuler Trust for the issuance and sale by the Company of an aggregate of 2,439,024 shares of the Company's common stock to the Schuler Trust (the "Private Placement"). Jack Schuler, serves as a member of the Company's board of directors and is the sole trustee of the Schuler Trust.

Pursuant to the March 2022 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Schuler Trust has agreed to purchase the Shares at a purchase price (determined in accordance with Nasdaq rules relating to the "market value" of the Company's common stock) of $1.64 per share, which is equal to the consolidated closing bid price reported by Nasdaq immediately preceding the time the Company entered into the March 2022 Securities Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate purchase price of $4.0 million. On June 29, 2022, the Company and the Schuler Trust agreed to extend the closing date of the Private Placement (the "Closing Date") from June 30, 2022 to September 26, 2022, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. On September 29, 2022, the parties agreed to further extend the Closing Date to December 30, 2022, effective as of September 26, 2022.

On August 23, 2022, the Company completed a public offering of 17,500,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $2.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $32.9 million from the offering after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses paid by the Company.

***Secured Note***

For additional information regarding other sales of equity securities completed by the Company in 2020 and 2021, see "Capital Resources and Liquidity—Other sales of equity securities" in Part II, Item 7 of the 2021 10-K.

The Secured Note has a scheduled maturity date of August 15, 2027 and will be repayable upon written demand at any time on or after such date. The Company may, at its option, repay the note in (i) cash or (ii) in the form of common stock of the Company, in a number of shares that is obtained by dividing the total amount of such payment by $2.12. The Secured Note bears interest at a rate of 5.0% per annum, payable at the option of the Company in the same form, at the earlier of (i) any prepayment of principal and (ii) maturity. The Company may prepay the Secured Note at any time without premium or penalty. The Secured Note is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, subject to customary exceptions and limitations, pursuant to a security agreement, dated as of August 15, 2022.

For additional information regarding other sales of equity securities completed by the Company in 2020 and 2021, see "Capital Resources and Liquidity—Other sales of equity securities" in Part II, Item 7 of the 2021 10-K.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2022.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to accounts receivable, inventories, property and equipment, intangible assets, accruals, warranty liabilities, tax valuation accounts and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in the 2021 10-K.

------

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk**

Not required for a smaller reporting company.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-Q/A, management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, conducted a re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022. Based on that evaluation, due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) described below, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, were not effective as of September 30, 2022.

**Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022 that prevented us from identifying the misclassification of the Notes on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and gave rise to the necessity to file this Form 10-Q/A. The Company's internal control structure did not have a control to review the evaluation of the classification of its outstanding debt instruments in accordance with applicable accounting guidance at each reporting period.

**Remediation Plan**

With oversight from the Audit Committee and input from management, the Company has begun designing and implementing changes in processes and controls to remediate the material weakness described above and to enhance our internal control over financial reporting, including a control to review the accounting treatment of outstanding debt instruments on a quarterly basis in accordance with applicable accounting guidance.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

Other than as described above, there was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

------

**PART II - OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. Legal Proceedings**

We are from time to time subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of our business. We believe that there are currently no claims or legal actions that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors**

In addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risks discussed in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in the 2021 10-K and the risk factor described below, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in the 2021 10-K and below are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

**Risks Related to Our Business and Strategy** 

***We have entered into the Sales and Marketing Agreement with BD and will substantially depend on BD for the successful commercialization of our products.***

As part of our collaboration with BD pursuant to the Sales and Marketing Agreement, BD will perform certain sales, tactical marketing, technical service call forwarding, order preparation, research and development support and/or regulatory activities on our behalf as our exclusive sales agent for certain of our products, including the Accelerate Pheno system, Accelerate Arc system and related BC Kits. The successful commercialization of our products, including our ability to generate revenue from our arrangement with BD, will depend on BD's ability to successfully perform the responsibilities assigned to it pursuant to the Sales and Marketing Agreement. While BD is largely responsible for the speed and scope of sales and marketing efforts, we cannot assure you that BD will dedicate the resources necessary to successfully perform its responsibilities pursuant to the Sales and Marketing Agreement, and our ability to cause BD to increase the speed and scope of its efforts may be limited. In addition, sales and marketing efforts could be negatively impacted by the delay or failure by us to obtain additional supportive clinical trial data for our products. We cannot predict the success of our collaboration with BD, and there can be no assurance that the efforts of BD will meet our expectations or result in any significant product sales or cost savings within the anticipated time frame or at all.

In the event that BD fails to perform under the Sales and Marketing Agreement, or if the Sales and Marketing Agreement is terminated, this could delay our product commercialization efforts, which would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The termination of the Sales and Marketing Agreement could also require us to revise our commercialization and business strategy going forward and divert management attention and resources. In addition, the termination of the Sales and Marketing Agreement could materially impact our ability to enter into additional collaboration agreements with new partners on favorable terms, if at all.

**Risks Related to Our Common Stock**

***Our stock price has been volatile and may continue to be volatile and traded on low volumes.***

The trading price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile. Factors that may contribute to volatility in the price of our common stock include, but are not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• low trading volume currently prevailing in the market for our shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• concentration of our stock with one individual large shareholder who could decide to materially reduce his position;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the substantial current short interest in our stock;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• adverse regulatory decisions, including failure to receive regulatory approvals for any of our product candidates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our success in commercializing our product candidates, if and when approved;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the introduction of new products or product enhancements by us or others in our industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, capital commitments or restructurings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• disputes or other developments with respect to our or others' intellectual property rights;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• product liability claims or other litigation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• quarterly variations in our results of operations or those of others in our industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• sales of large blocks of our common stock, including sales by our executive officers and directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in senior management or key personnel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in laws or regulations which adversely affect our industry or us;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in general market, economic, and political conditions in the U.S., and global economies or financial markets, including those resulting from natural disasters, terrorist attacks, acts of war (including Russia's invasion of Ukraine), other geopolitical uncertainties, public health concerns (including health epidemics or outbreaks of communicable diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic),and responses to such events.

The market value of your investment in our common stock may rise or fall sharply at any time because of this volatility and also because of significant short positions that may be taken by investors from time to time in our common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the closing price for our common stock ranged from $0.54 to $5.15 per share, during the year ended December 31, 2021, the closing price for our common stock ranged from $4.27 to $15.00 per share, and during the year ended December 31, 2020, the closing price for our common stock ranged from $4.62 to $18.74 per share. The market prices for securities of medical technology companies like us historically have been highly volatile, and the market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies.

In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against that company. Any lawsuit to which we are a party, with or without merit, may result in an unfavorable judgment. We also may decide to settle lawsuits on unfavorable terms. Any such negative outcome could result in payments of substantial damages or fines, damage to our reputation or adverse changes to our product offerings or business practices. Such litigation may also cause us to incur other substantial costs to defend such claims and divert management's attention and resources. Furthermore, negative public announcements of the results of hearings, motions or other interim proceedings or developments could have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock.
