______________ (1)For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, this includes reductions of $8.6 million on the carrying value of the right-of-use assets held due to a reduction of the expected lease term. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s right-of-use assets from operating leases are $149.7 million and $167.0 million, respectively, which are reported in operating lease right-of-use assets in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has outstanding operating lease obligations of $198.8 million, of which $30.4 million is reported in operating lease liabilities, current portion and $168.4 million is reported in operating lease liabilities, less current portion in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding operating lease obligations of $210.8 million, of which $28.4 million is reported in operating lease liabilities, current portion and $182.4 million is reported in operating lease liabilities, less current portion in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s right-of-use assets from finance leases are $12.0 million and $10.2 million, respectively, which are reported in other long-term assets, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has outstanding finance lease obligations of $12.7 million, of which $4.3 million is reported in other current liabilities and $8.4 million is reported in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding finance lease obligations of $10.6 million, of which $3.2 million is reported in other current liabilities and $7.4 million is reported in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Legal Matters The Company accrues costs for certain legal proceedings and regulatory matters to the extent that it determines an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. While such accrued costs reflect the Company’s best estimate of the probable loss for such matters, the recorded amounts may differ materially from the actual amount of any such losses. In some cases, no estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of amounts accrued, if any, can be made because of the inherently unpredictable nature of legal and regulatory proceedings, which may be exacerbated by various factors, including but not limited to, that they may involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages or may involve fines, penalties or punitive damages; present novel legal theories or legal uncertainties; involve disputed facts; represent a shift in regulatory policy; involve a large number of parties, claimants or regulatory bodies; are in the early stages of the proceedings; involve a number of separate proceedings and/or a wide range of potential outcomes; or result in a change of business practices. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, amounts accrued for legal proceedings and regulatory matters were not material except for the amounts accrued related to the matters discussed below. However, it is possible that in a particular quarter or annual period the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and/or liquidity could be materially adversely affected by an ultimate unfavorable resolution of, or development in, legal and/or regulatory proceedings, including as described below. Except for the proceedings discussed below, the Company believes that the ultimate outcome of any of the regulatory and legal proceedings that are currently pending against it should not have a material adverse effect on financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or liquidity. DOS Rule Matter In September 2023, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Genomic Health, Inc., which was acquired in November 2019, entered into a settlement agreement with the United States of America, acting through the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and on behalf of the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services, and two qui tam relators to resolve the previously disclosed civil investigation concerning Genomic Health’s compliance with the Medicare Date of Service billing regulations (the “DOS Rule Matter”). Genomic Health entered into the settlement agreement to avoid the delay, uncertainty and expense of protracted litigation. The settlement agreement contains no admission of liability by Genomic Health. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company made a payment $32.5 million, which the Company had accrued as a reserve for this matter as of June 30, 2023. Following the United States’ receipt of the settlement payment, the Company was released from any civil or administrative monetary claims under the civil False Claims Act and other specified civil statutes and common law theories of liability concerning the conduct identified in the settlement agreement. On September 29, 2023, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York unsealed two qui tam actions filed under the False Claims Act involving the DOS Rule Matter, and on October 2, 2023, those two actions were dismissed with prejudice pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement. Gift Card Matter On June 24, 2019, Niles Rosen M.D. filed a sealed ex parte qui tam lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, that alleged a violation of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute and False Claims Act for offering gift cards to patients in exchange for returning the Cologuard screening test (the “Qui Tam Suit”). Dr. Rosen seeks on behalf of the U.S. government and himself an award of civil penalties, treble damages and fees and costs. On February 25, 2020, the Company received a civil investigative demand by the DOJ related to the Company’s gift card program. The Company produced documents in response thereto. On March 25, 2021, the DOJ filed a notice of its election to decline intervention in the Qui Tam Suit. This election did not prevent Dr. Rosen from continuing the Qui Tam Suit. On April 12, 2021, Dr. Rosen filed an amended complaint against the Company, alleging violations of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute and False Claims Act. The Company first learned of the Qui Tam Suit and the DOJ’s election to decline intervention in July 2021. On September 26, 2023, the Company, Dr. Rosen and the United States, acting through the DOJ, executed a settlement agreement to resolve the claims and dismiss the lawsuit. The Company made payment of $13.8 million plus legal fees in October 2023, which is included within accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, as of September 30, 2023.
