Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisition | ACQUISITIONS ScoliScoreTM On September 21, 2012, we acquired certain intangible assets from Axial Biotech, Inc. ("Axial") related to the ScoliScoreTM assay. In consideration for the purchase of the intangible assets, we made a cash payment of approximately $3.4 million to Axial and certain of its creditors. In addition, following the transfer of all of the assets related to the ScoliScoreTM assay and confirmation that the ScoliScoreTM assay operates, within our laboratories pursuant to protocol agreed upon by us and Axial, we paid an additional $0.2 million to Axial and certain of its creditors and have an additional $0.8 million payable to the sellers, $0.1 million which will be placed into escrow for a period of one year from the closing of the transaction to secure Axial's indemnification obligations for, among other things, any breach of, or default under, any of Axial's representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in the asset purchase agreement. The total consideration paid was $4.4 million. This acquisition provides us with the ScoliScoreTM assay technology and intellectual property, and an established revenue and customer base. The following intangible assets were each valued separately using valuation approaches most appropriate for each specific asset.
Acquired technology | Relief from Royalty Method
Tradenames | Relief from Royalty Method
Customer relationships | Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method
Covenants not to compete | With and Without Method
Patents | Relief from Royalty Method
The Income Approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, cash flows or earnings, to a single, discounted amount. The fair value measure is based on the value that is indicated by market expectations about the present value of those future amounts. The Relief from Royalty Method assumes that if the Company did not have proprietary ownership of the genetic testing processes on which its revenues depend, it might elect to lease the rights or licenses from another company. The fair value is measured as the estimated discounted cash flows of the royalty payments avoided by ownership. The Multi Period Excess Earnings Method measures the fair value as the estimated discounted cash flows of the existing customer relationships over a period during which revenues from existing customer relationships are assumed to have been substantially replaced by revenues from future customers. The With and Without Method measures the fair value of the non-competition agreements as the probability adjusted difference between the estimated discounted cash flows with and without the effect of competition. The model that includes competition includes lost revenues as well as increased expenses required to rebuild the lost revenues. The acquired intangibles have the following useful lives; acquired technology - 7 years; third party payor relationships - 15 years; assay royalties 7 years; tradenames and trademarks - 7 years. The assets acquired were $3.9 million in identifiable intangible assets and $0.5 million in goodwill. No liabilities were assumed. The acquired assets are reported as a component of our laboratory services segment. The goodwill arising from the acquisition has been assigned to our Laboratory Services segment and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. FAMILION In December 2010, we acquired the FAMILION family of genetic tests from PGxHealth, then a subsidiary of Clinical Data, Inc. with a sales price of $18.8 million. We secured $6.0 million of financing from Third Security Senior Staff 2008 LLC, Third Security Staff 2010 LLC, and Third Security Incentive 2010 LLC (the "Third Security Investors", affiliates of Third Security, LLC, a leading life sciences investment firm), to fund the cash portion of our acquisition. This strategic acquisition provided us with proprietary genetic commercial tests that have an established revenue base, proprietary biomarker assays, an additional CLIA-certified laboratory operation and established test reimbursement and coverage policies that offer access to testing. The acquired assets and liabilities assumed are reported as a component of our laboratory services segment. Under the terms of the financing with the Third Security Investors, we issued an aggregate of 2,586,205 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock to the Third Security Investors. Additionally we issued to the Third Security Investors, Series A Warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,293,102 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $2.32 per share. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable pursuant to the purchase agreement and upon exercise of the Series A Warrants are convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.58 per share, for an aggregate of 15,517,228 million shares of common stock. Upon full exercise of the Series A Warrants, we will receive approximately $3.0 million. These securities were issued for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million. We entered into two notes payable with PGxHealth as a part of the acquisition. The first note is a three year secured promissory note in the amount of $8.6 million with interest accruing at 10%. The second note is a one year secured promissory note for facility improvements of $1.0 million with interest payable at 6.5%. See further information in Note 5 to the financial statements. Certain liabilities were assumed and various contingent liabilities recorded. The contingent liabilities include payments owed upon the collection of certain accounts receivable, retention bonuses for certain employees and royalties due to vendors based on milestone considerations. The following table summarizes the consideration for the acquired assets and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date.

Notes payable | 9,628 |
Assumed liabilities | 452 |
Contingent liabilities | 2,736 |

Acquisition related costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $0.8 million. We incurred $0.2 million in acquisition related costs to issue Series A Preferred Stock which were recorded against the proceeds received upon the issuance of such Series A Preferred Stock.

The fair value of the financial assets acquired includes accounts receivable with a fair value of $3.1 million. The gross amount due is $7.0 million, of which $3.9 million is expected to be uncollectible. The goodwill arising from the acquisition primarily relates to synergies of the combined companies. The goodwill has been assigned to our Laboratory Services segment and is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The intangible assets were each valued separately using valuation approaches most appropriate for each specific asset.

Income Approach The income approach is based upon the economic principle of anticipation. In this approach, the value of the subject intangible asset is the present value of the expected economic income to be earned from that intangible asset. This expectation is then converted into a present value through the selection of an investor's required rate of return given the risk and/or uncertainty associated with the subject intangible asset. In valuing an intangible asset using the income approach, the following elements should be considered: (i) remaining useful life, (ii) legal rights, (iii) position of the intangible asset in its respective life cycle, (iv) appropriate capital charges, (v) allocations of income, and (vi) whether any tax amortization benefit should be included in the analysis. Cost Approach The cost approach to intangible asset analysis is based upon the economic principles of substitution and price equilibrium. These basic economic principles assert that an investor pay no more for an investment than the cost to obtain an investment of equal utility. Within the cost approach there are several related analytical methods. Two of the most common and widely accepted include the reproduction cost and replacement cost methods. All cost based approaches typically involve a comprehensive analysis of the relevant cost components, which typically include: (i) materials, (ii) labor, (iii) overhead, (iv) intangible asset developer's profit, and (v) an adequate return on the asset developer's capital. Reproduction cost contemplates the construction of an exact replica of the subject intangible asset. Before appropriate adjustments are made for the purposes of deriving an indication of value, reproduction cost does not consider either the market demand for or the market acceptance of the subject intangible. Therefore, before the requisite adjustments, the reproduction cost estimate does not answer the question of whether anyone would be interested in an exact replica of the subject interest. Unlike the reproduction cost method, the replacement cost method does consider market demand and market acceptance for the subject intangible. In other words, if there are elements or components of the subject intangible that generate little or no demand, they are not included in the subject intangible. Excess Earnings Method The Excess Earnings Method, a form of the Income Approach, reflects the present value of the projected cash flows that are expected to be generated by the intangible asset, less charges representing the contribution of other assets to those cash flows. As part of our analysis, we determined individual rates of return applicable to each acquired asset and estimate the effective “capital charge” to be applied to the earnings of the identified intangibles. Relief-from-Royalty Method The Relief-from-Royalty method, a form of the Income Approach, estimates the cost of licensing the acquired intangible asset from an independent third party using a royalty rate. Since the company owns the intangible asset, it is relieved from making royalty payments. The resulting cash flow savings attributed to the owned intangible asset are estimated over the intangible asset's remaining useful life and discounted to present value. The fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock and related securities issued as a part of the consideration paid was determined on the basis of the closing market price of our common stock on the acquisition date, December 29, 2010. During 2011, we recorded a net purchase price adjustment of $0.2 million, increasing the amount of goodwill recorded for the purchase transaction, related to the adjustment in valuation of certain working capital accounts acquired. The following table sets forth the pro-forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of our prior fiscal year. No revenue or net income was included in our actual results for the year ended December 31, 2010 or 2009. These pro-forma amounts do not purport to be indicative of the actual results that would have been obtained had the acquisition occurred at that time.
