EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2010, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 14, 2011 (the “Original Filing”). The Original Filing is being amended solely to (i) correct the reporting of the license of certain intellectual property rights, which should have been recorded as both an asset and a liability in our financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2010, (ii) reclassify certain immaterial revenues and expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 and related periods presented herein, with no net impact to operating income, net loss, statements of cash flows or balance sheets, as described below, and (iii) correct disclosures of repayment terms of the loan proceeds received in 2011. Accordingly, Items 6, 7, 8 and 9A of Part II of the Original Filing are hereby amended and restated in their entirety.

Subsequent to the issuance of our 2010 audited financial statements, we concluded that a contract for the license of certain intellectual property rights should have been recorded as both an asset and a liability in the financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2010. We have recorded this contract which results in an increase of $1,389,000 to intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2010. The current and long-term portion of the liability for the contract for which payment was not due at December 31, 2010 was $695,000 and $694,000 respectively as of December 31, 2010.

Subsequent to the issuance of our 2010 audited financial statements, we further concluded that certain revenues and expenses were classified incorrectly in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2010, with no net impact to operating income, net loss, statements of cash flows or balance sheets. These corrections result in reductions to cost of sales of $399,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and corresponding increases to revenues, sales and marketing and research and development expenses. The corrections were made to reclassify freight revenue which was originally netted against freight expense, reclassify samples and freight expense to sales and marketing expense, and to allocate wages for employees spent on non-production activities to research and development and general and administrative expense from cost of sales expense.

In connection with the filing of this Amendment and pursuant to the rules of the SEC, we are including with this Amendment certain currently dated certifications on Exhibits 31 and 32 by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as exhibits to this Form 10-K/A under Item 6 of Part II hereof.

Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Filing. The Original Filing, as amended by this Amendment, continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing, and we have not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect any events which occurred at a date subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and our filings made with the SEC subsequent to the date of the Original Filing.

All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements regarding our future financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations. When used in this Annual Report, the words “believe,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this report, and in particular, the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Original Filing and those discussed in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except as required by law, we do not intend to update these forward-looking statements publicly or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this report and in the documents incorporated in this report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

You should read the following in conjunction with the “Selected Consolidated Financial Information” and the consolidated financial statements of GenMark and the related notes thereto that appear elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and analysis includes forward looking information that involves risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated by these forward looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under “Risk Factors” in the Original Filing . See also “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” included elsewhere in this filing.

Overview

GenMark Diagnostics, Inc., or GenMark, was formed by Osmetech plc, or Osmetech, in Delaware in February 2010 and had no operations prior to its initial public offering which was completed in June 2010. Immediately prior to the closing of the initial public offering, GenMark acquired all of the outstanding ordinary shares of Osmetech in a reorganization under the applicable laws of the United Kingdom. As a result of the reorganization, all of the issued ordinary shares in Osmetech were cancelled in consideration of (i) the issuance of common stock of GenMark to the former shareholders of Osmetech and (ii) the issuance of new shares in Osmetech to GenMark. Following the reorganization, Osmetech became a subsidiary controlled by GenMark, and the former shareholders of Osmetech began to hold shares of GenMark. Any historical discussion of GenMark relates to Osmetech and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the reorganization.

We are a molecular diagnostics company focused on developing and commercializing our proprietary eSensor detection technology. Our proprietary electrochemical technology enables fast, accurate and highly sensitive detection of up to 72 distinct biomarkers in a single sample. Our XT-8 system received 510(k) clearance from the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, and is designed to support a broad range of molecular diagnostic tests with a compact and easy-to-use workstation and self-contained, disposable test cartridges. Within 30 minutes of receipt of an amplified DNA sample, our XT-8 system produces clear and accurate results. Our XT-8 system supports up to 24 independent test cartridges, which can be run independently, resulting in a highly convenient and flexible workflow for our target customers, which are hospitals and reference laboratories.

We have developed four diagnostic tests for use with our XT-8 system and expect to expand this test menu by introducing two to four new tests annually. Our Cystic Fibrosis Genotyping Test, which detects pre-conception risks of cystic fibrosis, our Warfarin Sensitivity Test, which determines an individual’s ability to metabolize the oral anticoagulant warfarin, and our Thrombophilia Risk Test, which detects an individual’s increased risk of blood clots, have received FDA clearance. Our eSensor technology has demonstrated 100% accuracy in clinical studies compared to DNA sequencing in our Cystic Fibrosis Genotyping Test, our Warfarin Sensitivity Test and our Thrombophilia Risk Test. We have also developed a Respiratory Viral Panel Test, which detects the presence of major respiratory viruses and is labeled for investigational use only, or IUO. We intend to seek FDA clearance for our Respiratory Viral Panel Test in 2011. We also have a pipeline of several additional potential products in different stages of development or design, including diagnostic tests for an individual’s sensitivity to Plavix, a commonly prescribed anti-coagulant, and for mutations in a gene known as K-ras, which is predictive of an individual’s response rates to certain prescribed anti-cancer therapies.

We are also developing our next-generation platform, the NexGen system. We are designing the NexGen system to integrate DNA amplification with our eSensor detection technology to enable technicians using the NexGen system to be able to place a raw or minimally prepared patient sample into our test cartridge and obtain results without any additional steps. This sample to answer capability is enabled by the robust nature of our eSensor detection technology, which is not impaired by sample impurities that we believe hinder competing technologies. We are designing our NexGen system to further simplify workflow and provide powerful, cost-effective molecular diagnostics solutions to a significantly expanded group of hospitals and reference laboratories.

Since inception, we have incurred net losses from continuing operations each year, and we expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. Our losses attributable to continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were approximately $18.4 million, $20.0 million and $28.4 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2010, we had an accumulated deficit of $144.5 million. Our operations to date have been funded principally through sales of capital stock and sales of our previous businesses. We expect to incur increasing expenses over the next several years, principally to develop additional diagnostic tests, as well as to further increase our spending to manufacture, sell and market our products.

Financial Results Overview

Revenue

Revenue from continuing operations includes product sales, principally of our eSensor Cystic Fibrosis Genotyping Test and, to a lesser extent, our Warfarin Sensitivity Test, for use with our XT-8 system and our predecessor eSensor 4800 System. We primarily place our XT-8 system with customers through a reagent rental agreement, under which customers commit to purchasing minimum quantities of test cartridges over a period of one to three years. We also offer our XT-8 system for sale, however, for the year ended December 31, 2010, we had sold only ten XT-8 systems to customers which included the sale of thirteen analyzers.

Revenue also includes licensing revenue from the out-licensing of our electrochemical detection technology. In addition, revenue generated from service agreements recognized using the proportional performance method of accounting is included in this category. We may enter into additional sub-licenses of our technology generating additional revenue, but do not anticipate that this will provide a significant portion of our future revenue.

Our growth plans focus on both reagent rental agreements and system sales of our current XT-8 system and our next-generation NexGen system that is currently under development. We plan to expand our base of customers and systems as well as adding more tests for use with our systems. We believe these developments will drive accelerated use of our test cartridges, which we expect to be our primary source of revenue.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes the cost of materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead costs used in the manufacture of our consumable test kits for our XT-8 system and our predecessor eSensor 4800 System, including royalties on product sales. Cost of sales also includes depreciation on revenue generating systems that have been placed with our customers under a reagent rental agreement, and amortization of licenses related to our test cartridges.

Our XT-8 systems are procured from a contract manufacturer and generally capitalized as fixed assets and depreciated on a straight line basis over their useful life as a charge to cost of sales. We expect our costs of sales to increase as we place additional XT-8 systems and manufacture and sell an increasing menu of accompanying diagnostic tests.

We manufacture our test cartridges in our facility and have significant capacity for expansion. This underutilized capacity results in a high cost of sales relative to revenue, resulting in a gross loss. We believe cost of sales as a percentage of revenue will decrease as our sales of test cartridges grow.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing include those costs associated with our direct sales force, sales management, marketing, technical support and business development departments. These expenses primarily consist of salaries, commissions, benefits, share-based compensation, travel, advertising and promotions. We expect sales and marketing costs to increase as we scale up our commercial efforts to drive an increased customer base.

Table of Contents

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses primarily include expenses related to the development of our XT-8 system and its predecessor eSensor 4800 System, including the detection system and the test cartridges. These expenses also included clinical study expenses incurred in the process of preparing for FDA clearance for these systems and test cartridges. The expenses primarily consisted of salaries, benefits, share-based compensation costs, outside design and consulting services, laboratory supplies, contract research organizations, clinical study supplies and facility costs.

We expense all research and development costs in the periods in which they are incurred. We expect research and development costs to increase as we develop more advanced systems and increase the development of new tests for our XT-8 system.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses include our executive, accounting and finance, information technology, legal, intellectual property, human resource and investor relations departments. These expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, share-based compensation costs, independent auditor costs, legal fees, consultants, travel, insurance, relocation, and public company expenses such as stock transfer agent fees and listing fees for AIM and NASDAQ.

Foreign Exchange Gains and Losses

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are translated at the prevailing rates on the dates of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses arise from differences in exchange rates during the period between the date a transaction denominated in a foreign currency is consummated and the date on which it is settled or translated. Exchange gains and losses also included those arising on cash balances held by Osmetech denominated in currencies other than its functional currency, the British pound. Since the initial public offering, the functional currency of GenMark has been the U.S. dollar.

Interest Income (expense)

Interest income (expense) includes interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents less interest accrued on other liabilities.

Benefit (Provision) for Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC Topic 740, deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Critical Accounting Polices and Significant Judgments and Estimates

Revenue

We recognize revenue from product sales and contract arrangements, net of discounts and sales related taxes. We recognize revenue from product sales when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Where applicable, all revenue is stated net of sales taxes and trade discounts.

We offer customers the choice to either purchase a system outright or to receive a system free of charge in exchange for an annual minimum purchase commitment for test cartridges. When a system is sold, revenue is generally recognized upon shipment of the unit. When a system is placed free of charge under a “reagent rental” agreement, we retain title to the equipment and the system remains capitalized on the balance sheet under property and equipment. Under our reagent rental agreements, we retain the right to access or replace the systems at any time and our customers pay an additional system rental fee for each test cartridge purchased. The reagent rental fee varies based on the monthly volume of test cartridges purchased.

We sell our durable systems and disposable test cartridges through a direct sales force in the United States. Components are individually priced and can be purchased separately or together. The system price is not dependent upon the purchase of any amount of disposable test cartridges. Revenue on system and test cartridge sales is recognized upon shipment, which is when title and the risk of loss and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer and there are no other post-shipment obligations.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, we sold ten XT-8 systems to customers which included the sale of thirteen analyzers.

Revenue related to royalties received from licenses is recognized evenly over the contractual period to which the license relates. Revenue from service agreements is recognized using the proportional performance method of accounting.

Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and included in cost of product sales. In those cases where we bill shipping and handling costs to customers, the amounts billed are classified as revenue.

Property and Equipment

Property, equipment and leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives, which are noted below. We generally capitalize our XT-8 systems, and previously the predecessor eSensor 4800 systems, and provide these to customers for no charge. Each category of property and equipment is analyzed to determine its useful life. We look at the manufacturers’ estimates of useful life and adjust these for actual experience in our operating environment. Useful lives are reviewed periodically and shortened if circumstances dictate a change.

 

Machinery and laboratory equipment

   —      3 - 5 years

Systems at customer location

   —      3 years

Office equipment

   —      2 - 4 years

Leasehold improvements

   —      over the shorter period of the life of the lease or the useful economic life of the asset

During 2009, our estimate of the useful life of our systems was changed from five years to three years. This estimate was revised due to a change in our strategy to accelerate the development of our next-generation system and did not have a significant impact on the results for the period.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We assess the recoverability of long-lived assets, including intangible assets and systems at customer locations by periodically evaluating the carrying value of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If impairment is indicated, we write down the carrying value of the asset to the estimated fair value. This fair value is usually determined based on an estimate of future discounted cash flows. The primary cause for us to consider systems at customer locations for impairment is evidence that customers are not ordering the minimum quantities set forth in their reagent rental agreement. For impairment of systems at customers’ locations, which are assessed separately for each customer, we analyze the recoverability based on historical and estimated future sales of test cartridges to each customer. In

the year ended December 31, 2010, no impairment charges were recorded. In the year ended December 31, 2009, we recorded an impairment against systems of $865,389, which was recorded within cost of sales ($665,718), sales and marketing ($129,712) and research and development ($69,959).

Share-Based Compensation

We have granted our options with an exercise price equal to the closing price of GenMark’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market on each grant date. We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as the method for determining the estimated fair value of stock options. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of highly subjective and complex assumptions which determine the fair value of share-based awards, including the option’s expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock. These assumptions include:

 

   

Expected Term. Our expected term represents the period that our share-based awards are expected to be outstanding and is determined by evaluating past experience.

 

   

Expected Volatility. Expected volatility represents the volatility in our stock price expected over the expected term of the option.

 

   

Expected Dividend. The Black-Scholes valuation model calls for a single expected dividend yield as an input. We assumed no dividends as we have never paid dividends and have no current plans to do so.

 

   

Risk-Free Interest Rate. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation method is based on published government rates in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of option.

 

   

Estimated Forfeitures. The estimated forfeiture rate is determined based on our historical forfeiture rates. We will monitor actual expenses and periodically update the estimate.

 

   

Valuation. Our board of directors determined the fair value of our common stock to be equivalent to the closing prices on the NASDAQ Global Market. GenMark’s shares trade on the NASDAQ on a daily basis and reflect prices that investors are willing to pay for GenMark’s shares.

Income Taxes

Our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid. We are subject to income taxes in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense.

We believe that it is more likely than not that the benefit from certain U.S. federal and U.S. state net operating loss carryforwards will not be realized. In recognition of this risk, we have provided a valuation allowance of approximately $13.1 million on the deferred tax assets relating to these net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets. If our assumptions change and we determine we will be able to realize these net operating losses, the tax benefits relating to any reversal of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets at December 31, 2010 will be accounted for as a reduction of income tax expense.

Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future. Management is not aware of any such changes that would have a material effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

We recognize tax liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 740 and we adjust these liabilities when our judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from our current estimate of the tax liabilities. These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which they are determined.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, authoritative guidance was provided on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables. The guidance amended the accounting standards for multiple deliverable revenue arrangements to: (i) provide updated guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the deliverables in an arrangement should be separated, and how the consideration should be allocated; (ii) require an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices (“ESP”) of deliverables if a vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (“VSOE”) or third-party evidence of selling price (“TPE”); and (iii) eliminate the use of the residual method and require an entity to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method.

Arrangements that contain multiple deliverables include sales of systems and test cartridges. These are accounted for as separate units of accounting if the following criteria are met: (i) the delivered item or items have value to the customer on a standalone basis and (ii) for an arrangement that includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s), delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially in our control. The Company considers a deliverable to have standalone value if the item is sold separately or if the item could be resold by the customer. The Company’s revenue arrangements generally do not include a right of return relative to delivered products. The Company sold its first systems in 2010. The Company elected to early adopt the new accounting guidance because it is able to meet the new separation criteria and has applied it to all applicable revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified beginning January 1, 2010.

Results of Operations—2010 compared to 2009

Revenue

Revenue increased $1.6 million, or 157%, to $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $998,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Product sales increased $1.4 million, or 157%, to $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $911,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. License and other revenue increased $135,000 to $223,000, or 153%, for the year ended December 31, 2010, due to increased service revenue and shipping fees, compared to $88,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in product revenue was primarily driven by increased reagent revenues as well as system sales and other product revenue and was due to an increase in our installed base of systems and an expanded menu of tests available for sale. License revenue increased predominantly due to a collaboration agreement executed in conjunction with a clinical trial for Warfarin.

Cost of Sales and Gross Loss

Cost of sales decreased $353,000, or 8%, to $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. This improvement was primarily the result of higher revenue and better capacity utilization, with lower facility costs and an increased allocation of costs to research and development. Gross loss decreased $1.9 million or 58% to $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to a gross loss of $3.3 million in 2009.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense increased $1.4 million, or 43% to $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase was driven by higher payroll costs. We built our direct sales force during 2010 and expect these costs to increase during 2011 and beyond.

Research and Development

Research and development expense increased $1.0 million, or 18%, to $6.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase was due to higher payroll costs, including relocation and recruiting fees and increased usage of project supplies.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense decreased $874,000, or 11%, to $7.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $8.3 million for year ended December 31, 2009. The decline was due to reduced facility costs and professional fees offset by relocation costs related to our move from Pasadena to Carlsbad.

Foreign Exchange

We incurred a foreign exchange loss for the year ended December 31, 2010 of $1,000 as compared to a gain of $304,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The gain was due to the settlement of U.S. dollar liabilities during the year as the U.S. dollar weakened against the British pound combined with the benefit of maturing U.S. dollar forward contracts which were held by us during the period. There were few foreign exchange transactions during 2010.

Interest Income (Expense)

Interest income (expense), declined $34,000 to $1,000 net interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $33,000 net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2009, due to lower cash balances during the year as well as increased expense on a tax liability.

Other Income (Therapeutic Discovery Credit)

We recorded other income related to the Therapeutic Discovery Credit of $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. In July 2010, we applied for certification of qualified investments eligible for credits and grants under the qualifying therapeutic discovery project program for the years ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2010. The $1.6 million in grant applications were for expenses incurred in 2010 and 2009. The company received $561,000 for 2009 expenses and $1.1 million for 2010 expenses.

These development projects included the NexGen system (formerly the “AD-8 system”), K-ras mutation cancer treatment, Plavix Sensitivity Drug, Warfarin Sensitivity Test, Thrombophilia Risk Test, Respiratory Viral Panel and Cystic Fibrosis Genotyping. In November 2010, we were notified that we were awarded a total of $1.6 million under the program. As of December 31, 2010, the Company recorded the $1.6 million tax credit as an Other Current Assets on the Balance Sheet with a corresponding credit to Other Income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Benefit (Provision) for Income Taxes

A tax provision of $15,000 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to a tax benefit of $139,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The amount of the 2010 tax provision consists primarily of state income taxes. During 2009, a benefit was recognized relating to a carry-back of tax losses to prior years following the enactment of the Worker, Homeownership and Business Assistance Act of 2009.

Results of Operations—2009 compared to 2008

Revenue

Revenue increased $351,000, or 54%, to $998,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $647,000 for year ended December 31, 2008. Product sales increased $351,000 or 63% to $911,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $560,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008. License revenue of $88,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009 was equivalent compared to the year ended December 31, 2008. License revenue was predominantly attributable to annual maintenance and minimum royalties from existing licensees.

Product sales consisted solely of test cartridge sales, which are only available for purchase through reagent rental agreements or through negotiated purchase orders following purchase of an XT-8 system. The increase in

Table of Contents

revenue for 2009 was driven by sales of our Cystic Fibrosis Genotyping Test which replaced the predecessor Cystic Fibrosis Carrier Detection Test following FDA clearance of the test in July 2009. Revenue growth was hampered during this period by the lack of sufficient capital and the use of a distributor-based sales effort instead of a direct sales force for a major portion of the year ended December 31, 2009. Distributors generally do not dedicate substantial time to educate customers and monitor the evaluation of high technology new products which we believe adversely impacted our sales.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales increased $1.1 million, or 34%, to $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase was due to $666,000 in impairment charges for systems, and $549,000 in impairment charges for intangibles, partially offset by lower expenses for manufacturing support and temporary labor as production processes improved.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense decreased $212,000, or 6% to $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The decrease was driven by lower salaries and travel expenses partially offset by $381,000 for a one-time market research study in 2009, relocation of the newly hired commercial team and increased depreciation of XT-8 systems used in marketing evaluations. During 2009, we changed our estimate of the useful life of systems used for marketing purposes from five years to three years, which increased our depreciation for 2009 compared to 2008 by $38,000, and we recorded an impairment charge of $130,000 for certain demonstration units.

Research and Development

Research and development expense declined $7.8 million, or 58%, to $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $13.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The decline was due to a substantial reduction in research and development headcount and expenses in 2009 after the completion of the XT-8 system development. We also consolidated our Rockland, Massachusetts and Menlo Park, California research facilities into our headquarters in Pasadena, California.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense decreased $1.3 million, or 14%, to $8.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $9.6 million for year ended December 31, 2008. The decline was due to costs during 2008 related to our fund raising activities.

Foreign Exchange

Foreign exchange gain declined $201,000, or 40%, to $304,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $505,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The gain was due to the settlement of U.S. dollar liabilities during the year as the U.S. dollar weakened against the British pound combined with the benefit of maturing U.S. dollar forward contracts which were held by us during the period.

Interest Income

Interest income declined $387,000, or 92% to $33,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $420,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008, due to lower cash balances and declining interest rates in 2009.

Benefit (Provision) for Income Taxes

A tax benefit of $139,000 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to a tax provision of $247,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008. During 2009, a benefit was recognized relating to a carry-back of tax losses to prior years following the enactment of the Worker, Homeownership and Business Assistance Act of 2009. During 2008, a tax provision was recorded due to amendments made to the research and development tax credit claimed in prior periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date we have funded our operations primarily from the sale of our common stock, proceeds from sale of a business and revenues. We have incurred net losses from continuing operations each year and have not yet achieved profitability.

At December 31, 2010, we had $18.2 million of working capital, including $18.3 million in cash and cash equivalents. Net cash used in operations increased $3.5 million to $18.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $15.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to the recording of the $1.6 million Therapeutic Discovery Credit receivable in 2010, impairment losses recorded in 2009 and a build-up of inventory due to the relocation of the manufacturing facility in 2010. Net cash used in investing activities increased $801,000 to $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 due to more purchases of capital assets, primarily XT-8 systems used for reagent rental programs and leasehold improvements for our new manufacturing facility.

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $22.6 million, compared to $24.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 due to a slightly smaller fund raise in 2010 as compared to 2009.

In March 2010, we entered into a loan and security agreement with Square 1 Bank, pursuant to which we obtained a credit facility consisting of a revolving line of credit in the amount of up to $2 million and an equipment term loan in the amount of up to $2 million. Based upon certain financial covenants, interest on the revolving line of credit will be either (i) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate (3.25% as of December 31, 2010) plus 2.75%, or (b) 6%; or (ii) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 3.75%, or (b) 7%. In addition, based upon certain financial covenants, interest on the equipment term loan will be either (i) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 3.25%, or (b) 6.50%; or (ii) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 4.25%, or (b) 7.50%. The revolving line matures in July 2011 and the term loan matures in July 2013. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had not drawn any funds under this loan and security agreement.

In March 2011, the loan and security agreement was amended, whereby the line of credit availability was increased by $1 million to $3 million and the maturity was extended to July 2012. The term loan was modified to allow invoices up to 360 days to qualify to be submitted for credit extension. There were no other changes to these two loans.

An additional loan was made available under the amended loan and security agreement for up to $1 million to finance equipment purchases. Based upon certain financial covenants, interest on this equipment term loan will be either (i) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 3.25%, or (b) 6.50%; or (ii) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 4.25%, or (b) 7.50%. This term loan matures March 2014.

As of March 11, 2011, the Company had no outstanding loans on the line of credit and had drawn $2 million to finance 2010 equipment purchases and tenant improvements to its Carlsbad facility against the original term loan. Interest-only payments at the rate of 6.5% are due monthly from the date of each initial equipment advance until July 12, 2011. Initial equipment advances that are then outstanding are payable in 24 equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, beginning on August 12, 2011 and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter through July 12, 2013.

We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, our borrowing capacity, and the proceeds from our initial public offering will be sufficient to fund our business for at least the next 12 months. We expect capital outlays and operating expenditures to increase over the next several years as we grow our customer base and revenues, expand our research and development, commercialization and manufacturing activities. The amount of additional capital we may need to raise depends on many factors, including:

 

   

the level of revenues and the rate of revenue growth;

 

   

the level of expenses required to expand our sales and marketing activities;

 

   

the number of systems placed on a reagent rental basis;

 

   

the level of research and development investment required to maintain and improve our technology;

 

   

the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights;

 

   

competing technological and market developments;

 

   

our need to acquire or license complementary technologies or acquire complementary businesses; and

 

   

changes in regulatory policies or laws that affect our operations.

We can not be certain that additional capital will be available when and as needed or that our actual cash requirements will not be greater than anticipated. If we require additional capital at a time when investment in diagnostics companies or in the marketplace in general is limited due to the then prevailing market or other conditions, we may not be able to raise such funds at the time that we desire, on acceptable terms, or at all. In addition, when we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders could be significantly diluted, and these newly issued securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing stockholders. When we obtain additional debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on such indebtedness, and the terms of the debt securities issued could impose significant restrictions on our operations. If we raise additional funds through collaborations and licensing arrangements, we might be required to relinquish significant rights to our technologies or products, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

Contractual Obligations

As of December 31, 2010, we had contractual obligations relating to our facilities leases as follows:

 

     Payments due by period  

Contractual Obligations

   Total      Less than
1 Year
     1-3 Years      4-5
Years
     After
5 Years
 

Operating lease obligations (1)

   $ 4,703,084       $ 992,471       $ 1,746,464       $ 1,253,871       $ 710,278   

 

(1) 

Included in these amounts are our facilities leases. We enter into operating leases in the ordinary course of business with respect to facilities. Our lease agreements have fixed payment terms based on the passage of time. Certain facility leases require payment of maintenance and real estate taxes. Our future operating lease obligations could change if we exit certain contracts or if we enter into additional operating leases.

In addition to the obligations in the table above, we periodically purchase systems from a contract manufacturer. In order to guarantee delivery, we issue purchase orders each 90 day period for delivery of systems during that period. At December 31, 2010, we had outstanding purchase orders for $27,860 worth of systems.

Additionally, approximately $487,000 of unrecognized tax benefits, including accrued interest and penalties of $105,000, have been recorded as liabilities and we are uncertain as to if or when such amounts may be settled.

In November 2009, we renegotiated our lease on our 25,000 square foot headquarters facility in Pasadena, California that lowered our rent and accelerated the termination of that lease to June 30, 2010.

On October 20, 2010, we entered into a licensing agreement for intellectual property. The agreement requires minimum payments of €1.0 million in four equal installments over two years and contains provisions for additional licensing fees of €1.25 million and additional royalties based on related product sales. The license terminates upon election by us as defined or termination of every patent and application of patent right included in the agreement or other material breach as defined in the contract.

In March 2008, we exercised our option to extend the operating lease of the premises at our approximately 8,400 square-foot manufacturing facility in Pasadena, California, for a three-year period from August 1, 2008 until July 31, 2011 at a rental cost of $21,558 per month. On February 8, 2010, we entered into a seven-year and seven-month lease for a new 31,098 square foot facility in Carlsbad, California. The facility is part of a three-building office and research and development project located at 5964 La Place Court, Carlsbad, California, and the project totals 158,733 rentable square feet. Monthly rental payments are $48,260 and increases 3% annually. We also pay our pro-rata share of the building and project maintenance, property tax, management and other costs subject to certain limitations. We have paid a $55,000 security deposit and provided a $500,000 standby letter of credit as security for the future rent as well as for up to $2.0 million in landlord funded tenant improvements. The lease also provides for expansion rights and rights of first refusal for expansion within our building, subject to certain limitations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

GenMark Diagnostics, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Organization and basis of presentation

GenMark Diagnostics, Inc. (the “Company” or “GenMark”) is a molecular diagnostics company focused on developing and commercializing the Company’s proprietary e-sensor technology. On February 12, 2010, the Company was established to serve as the parent company of Osmetech plc (“Osmetech”) upon a corporate reorganization and initial public offering (“IPO”). On June 3, 2010, the Company completed an IPO for 4,600,000 shares. Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, the Company underwent a corporate reorganization whereby the ordinary shares of Osmetech were exchanged by its shareholders for the common stock of the Company on a 230 for 1 basis.

As the reorganization was deemed to be a transaction under common control, GenMark accounted for the reorganization in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interests, meaning:

 

  (i) assets and liabilities were carried over at their respective carrying values;

 

  (ii) common stock was carried over at the nominal value of the shares issued by GenMark;

 

  (iii) additional paid-in capital represented the difference between the nominal value of the shares issued by GenMark, and the total of the additional paid-in capital and nominal value of Osmetech’s shares cancelled pursuant to the reorganization; and

 

  (iv) the accumulated deficit represented the aggregate of the accumulated deficit of Osmetech and GenMark.

Once the reorganization became effective, all stock options granted under the Osmetech plc 2003 U.S. Equity Compensation Plan, Long Term Incentive Awards and all warrants issued were exchanged for options and warrants exercisable for the common stock of the Company.

The preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series.

In these consolidated financial statements, the Company means Osmetech when referring to periods prior to the IPO.

Subsequent events have been evaluated through December 2, 2011, being the date that the financial statements were available to be issued.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred net losses from operations since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $144,492,881 at December 31, 2010. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2010 were $18,329,079.

Management expects operating losses to continue through the foreseeable future until the Company has expanded its product offering and consequently increased its product revenues to an extent to cover the fixed cost base of the business. The Company’s management has prepared cash flow forecasts which indicate, based on the current cash resources available and the availability of credit facilities of up to $4,000,000, that the Company has sufficient capital to fund its operations for at least the next twelve months.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company’s operating results for the year ended December 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods.

Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, at date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. The majority of these funds are held in interest-bearing money market and bank checking accounts. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis as earned.

Receivables

Accounts receivable consists of amounts due to the Company for sales to customers and are recorded net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Prior to 2010, the Company did not reserve or write-off any receivables.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and include direct labor, materials, and manufacturing overhead. The Company periodically reviews inventory for evidence of slow-moving or obsolete parts, and writes inventory down to market. This write down is based on management’s reviews of inventories on hand, compared to estimated future usage and sales, shelf-life assumptions, and assumptions about the likelihood of obsolescence. During 2009, due to a change in business strategy, the Company changed the intention to sell its systems, and determined that the systems would be placed at customer sites pursuant to reagent rental agreements. Therefore, $256,909 was transferred from inventory to property and equipment-net.

Property, equipment and leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives, which are:

 

Machinery and laboratory equipment

   —      3 - 5 years

Systems at customer locations

   —      3 years

Office equipment

   —      2 - 4 years

Leasehold improvements

   —      over the shorter period of the life of the lease or the useful economic life of the asset

Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are comprised of licenses or sublicenses to technology covered by patents owned by third parties, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of these assets, generally five to twenty years. Amortization of licenses begins upon the Company obtaining FDA clearance to sell products containing the licensed technology and is recorded in cost of sales.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, by periodically evaluating the carrying value whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If impairment is indicated, the Company writes down the carrying value of the asset to its estimated fair value. This fair value is primarily determined based on estimated discounted cash flows.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the notes thereto. The Company’s significant estimates included in the preparation of the financial statements are related to inventories, plant and equipment, intangible assets, certain accrued liabilities related to the Company’s former facilities and share-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales and contract arrangements, net of discounts and sales related taxes. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Where applicable, all revenue is stated net of sales taxes and trade discounts.

The Company’s XT-8 systems are placed free of charge with customers in exchange for an annual minimum purchase commitment of products from the customer, while the Company retains the right to access or replace the systems at any time. Therefore, the systems remain capitalized on the balance sheet. Revenue from sales of the test cartridges and related products are recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customer, which is generally at the time of product shipment.

Revenues related to royalties received from licenses are recognized evenly over the contractual period to which the license relates. Services provided are recognized evenly over the contractual period to which the services relate.

Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and included in cost of product sales. In those cases where the Company bills shipping and handling costs to customers, the amounts billed are classified as revenue.

Product Warranties

The Company generally offers a one-year warranty for its systems sold to customers and provides for the estimated cost of the product warranty at the time the system sale is recognized. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty reserves include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty repairs and the cost per repair. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of the warranty reserve and adjusts the amount as necessary. Because there were no system sales in 2009 or 2008, the product warranty reserve has been zero prior to 2010.

Product warranty reserve activity for the year ended December 31, 2010 is as follows:

 

     2010  

Beginning balance

   $ —     

Provisions

     25,000   
  

 

 

 

Ending balance

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount management believes will, more likely than not, be recovered.

Table of Contents

A tax position that is more likely than not to be realized is measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. Measurement of a tax position that meets the more likely than not threshold considers the amounts and probabilities of the outcomes that could be realized upon settlement using the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense related to share options and warrants issued to employees and directors in exchange for services. The compensation expense is based on the fair value of the share-based compensation utilizing various assumptions regarding the underlying attributes of the options and shares. The estimated fair value of options granted, net of forfeitures expected to occur during the vesting period, is amortized as compensation expense on an accelerated basis to reflect the vesting as it occurs. The share-based compensation expense is recorded in cost of sales, sales and marketing, research and development and general and administrative expenses based on the employee’s respective function. The expense is derived from the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model that uses several judgment based variables to calculate the expense. The inputs include the expected life of the option or warrant, the expected volatility and other factors.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values.

Foreign Currency Translation

During 2010, the Company changed its functional currency from the British Pound to the U.S. Dollar. Prior to this change, monetary assets and liabilities of the Company’s entities outside of the U.S. were translated into U.S. dollars based on foreign currency exchange rates in effect at the end of each period, and revenues and expenses were translated at weighted average exchange rates during the periods. Gains or losses resulting from these foreign currency translations of the Company’s assets and liabilities were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets.

Transactions in foreign currencies were translated into the relevant functional currency at the rate of exchange prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency transaction gains (losses), which are included in the results of operations, totaled $(1,110), $303,523 and $504,921, for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively, and relate primarily to transactions denominated in U.S. dollars which were undertaken by Osmetech.

Derivative Financial Instruments

In 2008, derivative financial instruments were used principally in the management of foreign currency and interest rate exposures and were recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Derivative instruments not designated as hedges were marked-to-market at the end of 2008 with the results included in results of operations. The effect on earnings was not material. The Company did not use derivative financial instruments in 2010 or 2009.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period (the denominator). Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted loss per share is calculated in a similar way to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential shares had been issued unless the effect would be anti-dilutive. As the Company had a net loss in each of the periods presented, basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share are the same.

The Company’s XT-8 system is manufactured by a single source supplier that specializes in contract design and manufacturing of electronic and electromechanical devices for medical use.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

U.S. GAAP requires that all components of comprehensive income (loss), including net income (loss), be reported in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources, including accumulated translation adjustments. The Company reports comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, authoritative guidance was provided on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables. The guidance amended the accounting standards for multiple deliverable revenue arrangements to: (i) provide updated guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the deliverables in an arrangement should be separated, and how the consideration should be allocated; (ii) require an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices (“ESP”) of deliverables if a vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (“VSOE”) or third-party evidence of selling price (“TPE”); and (iii) eliminate the use of the residual method and require an entity to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method.

Arrangements that contain multiple deliverables include sales of systems and test cartridges. These are accounted for as separate units of accounting if the following criteria are met: (i) the delivered item or items have value to

 

25


Table of Contents

the customer on a standalone basis and (ii) for an arrangement that includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s), delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially in our control. The Company considers a deliverable to have standalone value if the item is sold separately or if the item could be resold by the customer. The Company’s revenue arrangements generally do not include a right of return for delivered products.

The Company sold its first systems in the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company elected to early adopt the new accounting guidance because it is able to meet the new separation criteria and has applied it to all applicable revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified beginning January 1, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance had an immaterial effect on the financial statements and on loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The adoption of this guidance did not result in a change in the Company’s units of accounting or in how the Company allocates arrangement consideration to its units of accounting, as the arrangements to which the new accounting guidance is applicable were first entered into during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Licenses have a weighted average remaining amortization period of 10.2 years as of December 31, 2010. Amortization expense for intangible assets amounted to $68,247, $164,662 and $105,455 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. Additionally, during 2009, licenses that were used for the manufacture of certain of the Company’s consumables were impaired due to the Company outsourcing this manufacturing process. This resulted in an impairment charge of $549,148 charged to cost of sales. In addition, an impairment of $91,105 was recorded as a general and administrative expense. Estimated future amortization expense for these licenses is as follows:

4. Share-based compensation

The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense related to share options, warrants and restricted stock issued to employees and directors in exchange for services. The compensation expense is based on the fair value of the awards, which are determined by utilizing various assumptions regarding the underlying attributes of the options and shares. The estimated fair value of options granted and restricted stock, net of forfeitures expected to occur during the vesting period, is amortized as compensation expense on a straight line basis over the period the vesting occurs. The share-based compensation expense is recorded in cost of sales, sales and marketing, research and development and general and administrative expenses based on the employee’s

Table of Contents

respective function. The option and warrant-related expense is derived from the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model that uses several judgment based variables to calculate the expense. The inputs include the expected life of the option or warrant, the expected volatility and other factors. The compensation expense related to the restricted stock is calculated as the difference between the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant, less the cost to acquire the shares, which is $0.0001 per share.

On June 3, 2010, the Company exchanged all of the outstanding options under the Osmetech plc 2003 U.S. Equity Compensation Plan (the “U.S. Plan”) for options under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The options were exchanged using an exchange ratio of 230 options to purchase shares of Osmetech plc to one share of the Company and was accounted for as a modification of the share-based payment arrangement. There was no additional compensation cost recorded related to the exchange as there was no change in the economic value of the options exchanged.

Employee participation is at the discretion of the compensation committee or senior management of the Company. All options are exercisable at a price equal to the average closing quoted market price of the Company’s shares on the NASDAQ on the date of grant and generally vest between 1 and 4 years.

Options are generally exercisable for a period up to 10 years after grant and are forfeited if the employee leaves the Company before the options vest. As of December 31, 2010, 687,965 shares remained available for future grant of awards under the Plan. Restricted stock grants reduce the amount of stock options available for grant under the 2010 Plan and are excluded from the table below.

The following table summarizes stock option activity during the year ended December 31, 2010:

Share Warrants—During 2009, the Company issued warrants to purchase 132,475 of Osmetech’s ordinary shares with an exercise price of £4.60 per share, and warrants to purchase 88,317 of Osmetech’s ordinary shares with an exercise price of £6.90 per share to a director for services to the Company in connection with the share offering completed in 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the warrant, the warrant to purchase 132,475 was cancelled upon the closing of the IPO. At the same time, the warrant to purchase 88,317 of Osmetech’s ordinary shares was converted to a warrant to purchase 88,317 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $9.98. These warrants were fully vested and exercisable upon issue, and shall continue to be exercisable up to and including the earlier to occur of (i) 60 days after the director leaving the Company’s board of directors (for whatever reason) and (ii) June 30, 2012.

Additionally, Osmetech’s deferred shares, which were created at the time of a 10-for-1 consolidation of ordinary shares on September 30, 2005 are excluded from basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share. Management considers these shares to be of minimal value. The deferred shares do not entitle the holder to payment of any dividend or other distribution or to receive notice or attend or vote at any general meeting of Osmetech. The deferred shares are non transferable. In the event of a return of assets on winding up of Osmetech, the deferred shareholders receive 1 pence in respect of their shareholding in its entirety.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the company granted 161,329 shares of restricted stock to two board members.

The restricted stock granted to the Interim Chief Executive Officer vests over the twelve month period ending July 2011 and the restricted stock granted to our new board member vests over the four year period of his board of director’s duties and over the twelve month period ending August 2011, for his initial and annual board compensation grants, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation—Share-based compensation, was recognized in the consolidated statements of operations as follows:

No share-based compensation was capitalized during the periods presented, and there was no unrecognized tax benefit related to share-based compensation for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008. During 2008, the Company determined that certain performance based criteria for options previously issued to certain executives would not be met. Accordingly, all expenses that had previously been recognized were reversed. No other options with performance based conditions have been outstanding during the periods presented. At December 31, 2010, the estimated total remaining unamortized compensation expense, net of forfeitures, associated with share-based awards was $2,728,305 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.42 years.

As of December 31 2010, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $77.9 million and $72.6 million for federal and state income tax purposes, respectively. These may be used to offset future taxable income and will begin to expire in varying amounts through 2030. In addition, the Company has non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of $30.4 million. Because the Company intends to restructure its operations during 2011, the non-U.S. net operating losses and other deferred tax assets have been removed from the Company’s table of deferred income taxes above.

Internal Revenue Code Section 382 places a limitation on future utilization of the federal and state net operating losses, to the extent that the Company incurs an ownership change as defined by Section 382. The Company has determined that it has experienced multiple ownership changes under Section 382. Management has estimated that approximately $24.7 million and $9.5 million of federal and state net operating losses, respectively, can be utilized in the future based on limitations that it has calculated under Section 382. As of December 31, 2010 approximately $10 million of federal net operating losses are available immediately. Additionally, federal net operating losses ranging from $0.2 million to $2.3 million become available each year. Management is currently analyzing alternative positions and additional factual information that may increase the amount of net operating losses that could subsequently be utilized up to $41.6 million and $24.7 million of federal and state net operating losses, respectively. To the extent that this additional information becomes available and could increase net operating losses available for use, the Company would adjust its deferred tax assets accordingly, with a corresponding adjustment to its valuation allowance. Utilization of net operating losses is also dependent upon sufficient taxable income generated within the appropriate carryforward periods.

The Company has established a full valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets due to uncertainties that preclude it from determining that it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to generate sufficient taxable income to realize such assets. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the three year period ended December 31, 2010. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence such as our projections for future growth. Based on this evaluation, as of December 31, 2010, a valuation allowance of $13.1 million has been recorded in order to measure only the portion of the deferred tax asset that more likely than not will be realized. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight may be given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth.

The Company adopted certain provisions of ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (previously reported as Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109), which contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate

Table of Contents

the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Income tax positions must meet a more likely than not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of ASC 740 and in subsequent periods. This interpretation also provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Upon adoption of ASC 740 on January 1, 2007, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits. In accordance with the adoption, a reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits, exclusive of accrued interest and penalties, is as follows:

 

     2010      2009      2008  

Balance at January 1

   $ 382,000       $ 382,000       $ 382,000

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company classified $486,770 and $463,000, respectively, of total unrecognized tax benefits, which includes accrued interest and penalties of $104,770 and $81,000 for 2010 and 2009, respectively, as a component of other long-term liabilities. This represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would, if recognized, reduce the Company’s effective income tax rate in any future periods. The Company does not expect its unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next 12 months. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

The Company is subject to taxation in the UK, US and various states jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2010 the Company’s tax years after 2007 are subject to examination by the UK tax authorities. Except for net operating losses generated in prior years carrying forward to the current year, as of December 31, 2010, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has various operating lease agreements for its office, manufacturing, warehousing and laboratory space. Rent and operating expenses charged were $958,607, $1,124,655 and $1,228,173 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. Pursuant to the Company’s lease agreements, a portion of the monthly rental has been deferred. The balance deferred as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $133,542 and $186,949, respectively.

Annual future minimum obligations for operating leases as of December 31, 2010 are as follows:

7. Inventory

Inventory on hand as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 was comprised of the following:

 

00,000,000 00,000,000
     2010      2009  

Raw materials

   $ 396,956       $ 38,973

   $ 896,809       $ 136,967   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

The increase in raw materials and finished goods inventory is due to incremental revenue growth and inventory build-up in anticipation of the move of the manufacturing facility from Pasadena, California, to Carlsbad, California.

8. Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment was comprised of the following as of December 31, 2010 and 2009:

 

     2010     2009  

Property and equipment—at cost:

    

Plant and machinery

   $ 2,451,775      $ 2,201,033   

Rental systems

     2,821,665        2,073,082   

Office equipment

     1,541,544        1,079,214   

Leasehold improvements

     597,523        74,394   
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

Total property and equipment—at cost

     7,412,507        5,427,723   

Less accumulated depreciation

     (4,710,029 )     (4,046,105 )
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

Net property and equipment

   $ 2,702,478      $ 1,381,618   
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

The depreciation expense amounted to $995,064, $1,404,412 and $1,052,200 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 respectively.

During 2010, $288,962 of deposits on systems were transferred from other current assets to property and equipment, net. During 2009, $256,909 of systems were transferred out of finished goods inventory into property and equipment, net. These transfers were as a result of a change in the Company’s strategy from outright sales of systems to placing systems with customers for no initial charge and recovering that cost through the sale of test cartridges pursuant to reagent rental agreements.

In 2009, due to the anticipated acceleration of the release of future generations of the Company’s products, in particular the NexGen system, the Company assessed all systems for impairment. For systems placed with customers the carrying amount was written down to fair value based on the projected discounted net cash flows to be generated from the sale of test cartridges. Systems that were not expected to generate any future revenues were impaired to $0. The Company recorded an aggregate impairment charge of $865,389 of which $665,718 was charged to cost of sales in respect of systems placed with customers, $69,959 was charged to research and development expenses in respect of systems being used for research purposes, and $129,712 was charged to sales and marketing expenses in respect of systems being used for demonstration purposes only. Additionally in 2009, the Company revised the estimated useful life of systems from 5 to 3 years, although this did not result in a material increase in the depreciation charge during the year.

9. Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a 401(k) tax-deferred savings plan, whereby eligible employees may contribute a percentage of their eligible compensation. Company contributions are discretionary. Including administrative fees, the

expense was $78,572, $172,668 and $304,449 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Additionally, the Company has made contributions to other defined contribution plans on behalf of its employees amounting to $0, $58,004 and $98,325 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These other defined contribution plans were terminated in 2010.

10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable and accounts payable are considered reasonable estimates of their fair value, due to the short maturity of these instruments.

Accounting literature provides a fair value hierarchy, which classifies fair value measurements based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These inputs include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents are stated at their fair market value. Cash and cash equivalents are classified as Level 1.

Foreign exchange contracts: The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. Prior to 2009, the Company entered into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge certain balance sheet exposures and intercompany balances against movement in foreign exchange rates. Gains and losses on the foreign exchange contracts were included in interest and other income, net, which offset foreign exchange gains or losses from revaluation of foreign currency-denominated balance sheet items and intercompany balances.

The foreign exchange forward contracts required the Company to exchange foreign currencies to U.S. dollars or vice versa, and generally mature in one month or less. As of December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts with aggregate notional amounts of $0, $0 and $6.0 million, respectively, which had remaining maturities of less than six months. The fair value recorded on the consolidated balance sheets for foreign exchange contracts is not material.

Non-recurring measurements: The Company measures the fair value of its long-lived assets on a periodic basis when it appears that there may be requirement to do so, such as an indication of impairment. During the year ended December 31, 2009, impairment indicators required that an assessment of the fair value of certain intangible assets and systems. These fair value measurements were done on the basis of unobservable Level 3 inputs, for which little or no market data exists. These inputs included the assumptions of future cash flows related to the items, and a discount rate applied to these cash flows. The assumed cash flows were projected based on management’s best estimates for the remaining net cash flows for each item over its the estimated remaining useful life. Due to the relatively short-term period of future cash flows on these items, the use of a discount rate did not have a material impact on the valuation of these items. Impairments recorded during the period as a result of these fair value measurements were $640,253 for intangible assets (note 3), and $865,389 on the laboratory systems (note 8).

There were no transfers of items between Levels 1, 2 or 3.

In July 2010, the Company applied for certification of qualified investments eligible for credits and grants under the qualifying therapeutic discovery project program for the years ending December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2010. The $1.6 million in grant applications were for $561,000 of expenditures in 2009 and $1.1 million of expenditures in 2010.

These development projects included the NexGen System (formerly the “AD-8 system”), K-ras mutation cancer treatment, Plavix Sensitivity Drug, Warfarin Sensitivity Test, Thrombophilia Risk Test, Respiratory Viral Panel and Cystic Fibrosis Genotyping. In November 2010, the company was notified that it had been awarded a total of $1.6 million under the program. As of December 31, 2010, the Company recorded the $1.6 million tax credit as an Other Current Assets on the Balance Sheet with a corresponding credit to Other Income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In February 2011, the Company requested payment from the U.S. Department of Treasury, and $1.6 million in cash was received.

13. Subsequent Events

In March 2010, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with Square 1 Bank, pursuant to which the Company obtained a credit facility consisting of a revolving line of credit in the amount of up to $2 million and an equipment term loan in the amount of up to $2 million. Based upon certain financial covenants, interest on the revolving line of credit will be either (i) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate (3.25% as of December 31, 2010) plus 2.75%, or (b) 6%; or (ii) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 3.75%, or (b) 7%. In addition, based upon certain financial covenants, interest on the equipment term loan will be either (i) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 3.25%, or (b) 6.50%; or (ii) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 4.25%, or (b) 7.50%. The revolving line matures in July 2011 and the term loan matures in July 2013. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had not drawn any funds under this loan and security agreement.

In March 2011, the loan and security agreement was amended, whereby the line of credit availability was increased by $1 million to $3 million and the maturity was extended to July 2012. The term loan was modified to allow invoices up to 360 days to qualify to be submitted for credit extension. There were no other changes to these two loans.

An additional loan was made available under the amended loan and security agreement for up to $1 million to finance equipment purchases. Based upon certain financial covenants, interest on this equipment term loan will be either (i) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 3.25%, or (b) 6.50%; or (ii) the greater of (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 4.25%, or (b) 7.50%. This term loan matures March 2014.

As of March 11, 2011, the Company had no outstanding loans on the line of credit and had drawn $2 million to finance 2010 equipment purchases and tenant improvements to its Carlsbad facility against the original term loan. Interest-only payments at the rate of 6.5% are due monthly from the date of each initial equipment advance until July 12, 2011. Initial equipment advances that are then outstanding are payable in 24 equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, beginning on August 12, 2011 and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter through July 12, 2013.

14. Unrecorded licensing agreement and reclassifications

Subsequent to the issuance of the 2010 audited financial statements, the Company concluded that a contract for the license of certain intellectual property rights should have been recorded as both an asset and a liability in the financial statements for the periods ended December 31, 2010. The Company has recorded this contract which results in an increase of $1,389,000 to intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2010 .The current and long-term portion of the liability for the contract as of December 31, 2010 was $695,000 and $694,000, respectively.

Subsequent to the issuance of the 2010 audited financial statements, the Company further concluded that certain revenues and expenses were classified incorrectly in its Consolidated Statements of Operations for the past periods presented herein, with no net impact to operating income, net loss, statements of cash flows or balance sheets. The Company has corrected these immaterial misstatements. These corrections result in reductions to cost of sales of $399,000 in the year ending December 31, 2010, and corresponding changes to revenues, sales and marketing, general and administrative and research and development expenses.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the timelines specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Prior to the filing of our original Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (the “Evaluation”) at a reasonable assurance level as of the last day of the period covered by this report. Based upon the Evaluation, our Interim Chief Executive Officer had concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. Subsequently, during the second quarter of 2011, we identified that some prior members of our finance and accounting department did not follow our internal control over financial reporting procedures. Specifically, members of our finance and accounting personnel did not effectively coordinate with members of our business development team regarding the terms of a license agreement. As a result of this failure, we failed to record certain intellectual property rights as both an asset and liability and, as a result, misstated our intangible assets and accrued liabilities in the periods identified in the Explanatory Note to this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A. In addition, in the second quarter of 2011, we identified that some prior members of our finance team misclassified a number of operating expenses as costs of sales and misclassified the current portion of a loan payable as long term debt. We believe that these misstatements and misclassifications, although immaterial to the prior periods in which they occurred, resulted from a deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting existing during these prior periods which constituted a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. Although the material weakness existed as of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, and as of the first quarter ended March 31, 2011, we did not discover the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting until the second quarter of 2011, after the respective filing dates of our annual and quarterly reports. As a result of this discovery, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have now concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2010.

Remediation of Material Weakness

Unrelated to the discovery of the material weakness, we had previously hired a new Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Controller to lead our finance and accounting departments. Each of these individuals understands our system of internal controls, including our post-closing procedures which are designed to ensure our financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These new hires have also provided proper guidance and training on our internal control procedures to other finance and accounting personnel, many of which are also new hires. As a result, we have enhanced communication among our finance and accounting personnel and the personnel from our other departments. We believe these new hires will remediate the material weakness and that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. No material weakness will be considered remediated, however, until any remedial procedures that we take have operated for an appropriate period, have been tested and management has concluded that they are operating effectively. In addition, we reviewed our processes and procedures for our internal control over financial reporting and we did not identify any additional controls with similar deficiencies. We have reviewed our assessment of the material weakness and our remediation and the status of its implementation and effectiveness with our audit committee.

Exemption from Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2010

This annual report does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for newly public companies.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except as otherwise discussed above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the period covered by this report that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
