Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Leases As of September 30, 2021, the Company leases office and laboratory space in Vista, California, under leases that expire in January 2026, with an option to extend a portion of the lease for an additional 5-year period. In addition, the Company also leases additional office space in Vista, California, under a lease that expires in January 2026 with an option to extend the lease for an additional 5-year period. The Company's lease payments under each of these leases are subject to escalation clauses. Effective on August 23, 2021, the Company entered into a sub-lease agreement for an additional office space in Carlsbad, California. The sub-lease commenced in October 2021 and expires in April 2027. The sub-lease agreement provides for monthly base rent of $66,021 which began on October 1, 2021, and such amount shall increase by approximately 3% annually beginning October 1, 2022. The Company is entitled to base rent abatement for a specified period of time which began on November 1, 2021. For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, rent expense was $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, rent expense was $0.5 million. Acquisition-related liabilities In connection with the acquisition of the medical diagnostics division of Cypress Bioscience, Inc. in 2010, the Company was required to pay certain amounts in the event that certain revenue milestones were achieved and upon the first commercial sale of a product associated with this acquisition. The acquisition also included amounts that may be due under several licensing agreements. One such license agreement, the license agreement, dated September 13, 2007, between the Company and Prometheus Laboratories, Inc. (the Prometheus License), was terminated by mutual agreement on September 28, 2021. In consideration for terminating the Prometheus License, including with respect to the remaining potential milestone payments thereunder, the Company agreed to pay Prometheus Laboratories, Inc. a fee of approximately $0.1 million and acquired the intellectual property previously licensed to the Company pursuant to the Prometheus Agreement. The Company has ongoing royalty payment obligations of 2.5% on net sales of products which incorporate certain acquired technologies. Future royalties payable under these arrangements are limited to the lesser of (i) an aggregate of $1.2 million (including an upfront payment of $100,000) and (ii) the total royalties earned through January 1, 2024. Licensing Agreements The Company has licensed technology for use in its diagnostic tests. In addition to the milestone payments required by these agreements as described above, individual license agreements generally provide for ongoing royalty payments ranging from 1.5% to 3.0% on net sales of products which incorporate licensed technology, as defined in such agreements. Royalties are accrued when earned and recorded in costs of revenue in the accompanying condensed statement of operations. In May 2021, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with Allegheny Health Network Research Institute, or AHN, to obtain an exclusive license to AHN's patent rights in certain inventions, pursuant to which the Company paid AHN an initial license fee of $0.4 million. In addition, under the terms of the exclusive license agreement, the Company is required to pay the greater of royalties in the low single digits on net sales of diagnostic tests using the assigned patents or a flat annual minimum royalty amount, pending approvals and commercialization. Supply Agreement In September 2020, the Company entered into an amended supply agreement with one supplier for reagents which includes minimum annual purchase commitments of $4.1 million and $6.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively, with a 15% annual increase thereafter through the year ended December 31, 2025. Collaboration Obligations In May 2021, the Company entered into a master research collaboration agreement with AHN, pursuant to which the Company is required to pay AHN a collaboration fee of $0.4 million for each year during the initial term of the agreement. Collaboration expenses under the master research collaboration agreement were $0.1 and $0.2 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Collaboration expenses under the AHN collaboration are included in research and development expenses. Contingencies In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide for general indemnifications; including subpoenas and other civil investigative demands, from governmental agencies, Medicare or Medicaid payors and managed care organizations reviewing billing practices or requesting comment on allegations of billing irregularities that are brought to their attention through billing audits or third parties. The Company's exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves claims that may be made against the Company in the future, but have not yet been made or that the Company believes to be immaterial. The Company accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. Litigation From time to time, the Company may be subject to various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business activities.
