The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and that contemplates the continuity of operations, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, we had an operating loss of $14.0 million. As of December 31, 2021, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $3.3 million, total current assets of $12.2 million and current liabilities of $15.7 million. As of March 18, 2022, we had approximately $2.7 million of cash on hand, excluding restricted cash.

In January 2022, the Company announced that CMS issued a new billing policy whereby CMS will no longer reimburse for the use of the Company’s ThyGeNEXT^® and ThyraMIR^® tests when billed together by the same provider/supplier for the same beneficiary on the same date of service. On February 28, 2022, the Company announced that the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) program issued a response on behalf of CMS stating that the January 2022 billing policy reimbursement change for ThyGeNEXT^® (0245U) and ThyraMIR^® (0018U) tests has been retroactively reversed to January 1, 2022. CMS is currently reimbursing the Company for one of its two thyroid tests, and has agreed to retroactively reimburse for the second test once they have completed their internal administrative adjustments. We have been notified by CMS/NCCI that processing of claims for dates of service after January 1, 2022 will be completed beginning July 1, 2022. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not yet realized the full cash collection benefit of current and retroactive Thyroid testing and such cash collections may be temporarily reduced or delayed until we resolved the matter with CMS. As of the date of this Report, the Company currently anticipates that current cash and cash equivalents will be insufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the next twelve months. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Although the Company is targeting to achieve adjusted EBITDA and cash flow breakeven during Fiscal 2022, we may not generate positive cash flows from operations for the year ending December 31, 2022. We intend to meet our ongoing capital needs by using our available cash and availability under the Comerica Loan Agreement, as well as through revenue growth and margin improvement; collection of accounts receivable; containment of costs; and the potential use of other financing options. However, if we are unable to meet the financial covenants under the Comerica Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit and notes payable will become due and payable immediately.

The Company is exploring various dilutive and non-dilutive sources of funding, including equity and debt financings, strategic alliances, business development and other sources in order to provide additional liquidity and expand the business through acquisitions or other strategic transactions. With the Company’s delisting from Nasdaq in February 2021, its ability to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to the Company may be adversely impacted. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such funding on terms acceptable to the Company. In January 2022, the Company’s registration statement for a rights offering become effective. The rights offering was subsequently terminated in January 2022.
