NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(1) | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Myriad Genetics, Inc. (the Company) in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly all financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The condensed consolidated financial statements herein should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2013 may not necessarily be indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.
(2) | Marketable Investment Securities |
The Company has classified its marketable investment securities as available-for-sale securities. These securities are carried at estimated fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders equity until realized.

(3) | Share-Based Compensation |
The Company maintains a share-based compensation plan, the 2010 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the 2010 Plan), that has been approved by the Companys shareholders. The 2010 Plan allows the Company, under the direction of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to make grants of stock options, restricted and unrestricted stock awards and other stock-based awards to employees, consultants and directors. On December 5, 2012, the shareholders approved an amendment to the 2010 Plan to set the number of shares available for grant to 4,500,000. At September 30, 2013, 1,473,914 shares were available for issuance. In addition, as of September 30, 2013, the Company may grant up to 7,236,703 additional shares under the 2010 Plan if options previously granted under the Companys 2003 Employee, Director and Consultant Option Plan are cancelled or expire without the issuance of shares of common stock by the Company.
The number of shares, terms, and vesting period of awards under the 2010 Plan are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors for each equity award. Options under the plan granted prior to December 5, 2012 generally vest ratably over four years and expire ten years from the grant date. Options granted after December 5, 2012 generally vest ratably over four years and expire eight years from the grant date. The exercise price of options granted is equivalent to the fair market value of the stock on the grant date.
The Company also has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan that was approved by shareholders in 2012 (the 2012 Purchase Plan), under which 2,000,000 shares of common stock have been authorized. Shares are issued under the 2012 Purchase Plan twice yearly at the end of each offering period. As of September 30, 2013, approximately 67,000 shares of common stock have been issued under the 2012 Purchase Plan and approximately 1,933,000 were available for issuance.

(4) | Stockholders Equity |
Stock Repurchase Program
The Companys Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of $200 million of the Companys outstanding common stock. The Company plans to repurchase its common stock from time to time or on an accelerated basis through open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions as determined by the Companys management. The amount and timing of stock repurchases under the program will depend on business and market conditions, stock price, trading restrictions, acquisition activity and other factors. As of September 30, 2013, approximately $51.1 million remained available for repurchases under the program. The Company uses the par value method of accounting for its stock repurchases. As a result of the stock repurchases, the Company reduced common stock and additional paid-in capital and recorded charges to retained earnings. The shares retired, aggregate common stock and additional paid-in capital reductions, and related charges to retained earnings for the repurchases for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

(5) | Earnings Per Share |
Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of the Companys common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of the Companys common stock, including the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding.
The following is a reconciliation of the denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

Certain outstanding stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. These potential dilutive common shares, which may be dilutive to future diluted earnings per share, are as follows:

(7) | Fair Value Measurements |
The fair value of the Companys financial instruments reflects the amounts that the Company estimates it will receive in connection with the sale of an asset or pay in connection with the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels:
Level 1 | quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. | |
Level 2 | observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Some of the Companys marketable securities primarily utilize broker quotes in a non-active market for valuation of these securities. | |
Level 3 | unobservable inputs. |
The substantial majority of the Companys financial instruments are valued using quoted prices in active markets or based on other observable inputs. For Level 2 securities, the Company uses a third party pricing service which provides documentation on an ongoing basis that includes, among other things, pricing information with respect to reference data, methodology, inputs summarized by asset class, pricing application and corroborative information. The Company reviews, tests and validates this information. The following table sets forth the fair value of the financial assets that the Company re-measured on a regular basis:

(8) | Commitments and Contingencies |
The Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings covering matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. As of September 30, 2013, the management of the Company believes any liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, operating results, or cash flows.
(9) | Income Taxes |
In order to determine the Companys quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company used an estimated annual effective tax rate that is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter during which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.
Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $28,362,000, or approximately 34% of pre-tax income, compared to $19,686,000, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, or approximately 40% of pre-tax income. Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 is based on the Companys estimated annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2014, adjusted by discrete items recognized during the period. The Companys effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes, a deduction for the write-off of stock in a wholly-owned subsidiary recently divested, as well as timing differences related to the recognition of the tax effect of equity compensation expense from incentive stock options and the deduction realized if those options are disqualified upon exercise and sale.
The Company files U.S., U.K., France and state income tax returns in jurisdictions with various statutes of limitations. The Companys New York State income tax returns for the years ended June 30, 2007, 2008 and 2009 are currently under examination by the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance. Annual and interim tax provisions include amounts considered necessary to pay assessments that may result from examination of prior year tax returns; however, the amount ultimately paid upon resolution of issues may differ materially from the amount accrued. The Companys U.S. federal tax return, U.K. and France income tax returns and all other state tax returns are not currently under examination.
(10) | Goodwill and Intangible Assets |
Goodwill
At September 30, 2013, the Company had recorded goodwill of $56,850,000 related to the acquisition of Myriad RBM, Inc. on May 31, 2011 (formerly Rules-Based Medicine, Inc.). There were no events or circumstances that indicated that impairment exists; therefore, the Company recorded no impairment of goodwill for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
11
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets primarily consist of amortizable assets of purchased licenses and technologies, customer relationships, and tradenames as well as non-amortizable intangible assets of in-process technologies and research and development. Certain of these intangible assets were recorded as part of the Companys purchase of Rules-Based Medicine, Inc. on May 31, 2011. The following summarizes the amounts reported as intangible assets:

(11) | Term Loan and Option Agreement |
On September 8, 2011, the Company issued a $25,000,000 term loan to Crescendo Bioscience, Inc. (Crescendo) of South San Francisco, CA under a Loan and Security Agreement (Loan Agreement) and also secured an exclusive three-year option to acquire Crescendo pursuant to a definitive merger agreement (the Option Agreement). The stated interest rate on the term loan is 7%. The fair value of the Option Agreement of $8,000,000 was determined utilizing valuation models at the time of the issuance, including the market and income based approaches, which utilize various inputs including projected income, volatility, risk free rates and projected terms. The Company periodically evaluates the Option Agreement for impairment. No impairment indicators were noted at September 30, 2013.
12
The residual $17,000,000 value of the term loan has been classified as a note receivable at its accreted value of $22,333,000 on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2013. The Company recorded interest income related to accretion of the note receivable and the stated interest rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 of $1,104,000 in the condensed consolidated statement of income. The Company is utilizing the effective interest method to accrete the discount portion of the note receivable through interest income over the three-year term of the Companys option to acquire Crescendo under the Option Agreement. The note receivable is evaluated for collectability each reporting period. If the Company determines that the note receivable and any accrued interest is not collectible, such amount will be written off in the period that determination is made. No amounts related to the note receivable or accrued interest were written off during the three months ended September 30, 2013.
(12) | Cost Basis Investment |
As of September 30, 2013, the Company had a $5,000,000 investment in RainDance Technologies, Inc. which has been recorded under the cost method as an Other Asset on the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheet. There were no events or circumstances that indicated that impairment exists; therefore, the Company recorded no impairment in the investment for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
(13) | Subsequent Event |
In November 2013, the Company completed its fifth share repurchase program. In November 2013, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $300 million of the Companys outstanding common stock. The Company plans to repurchase up to $300 million of shares of its common stock from time-to-time in open market purchases or privately negotiated purchases as determined by the Companys management. The amount and timing of the stock repurchase will depend on business and market conditions, trading restrictions, acquisition activity and other factors.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
We are a leading molecular diagnostic company dedicated to making a difference in patients lives through the discovery and commercialization of transformative tests which assess a persons risk of developing disease, accurately diagnose disease, guide treatment decisions and assess risk of disease progression and recurrence. We believe in improving healthcare for patients by providing physicians with critical information to solve unmet medical needs. Through our proprietary technologies, we believe we are positioned to identify important disease genes, the proteins they produce, and the biological pathways in which they are involved to better understand the underlying molecular basis for the cause of human disease. We believe that identifying these genes, proteins, and pathways will enable us to develop novel molecular diagnostic tests.
Our goal is to provide physicians with critical information that may guide the healthcare management of their patients to prevent disease, diagnose the disease at an earlier stage, determine the most appropriate therapy, or assess the aggressiveness of their disease. Our proprietary technologies, including DNA, RNA and protein analysis, help us to understand the genetic basis of human disease and the role that genes and their related proteins may play in the onset and progression of disease. We use this information to guide the development of new molecular diagnostic tests that are designed to assess an individuals risk for developing disease later in life (predictive medicine), identify a patients likelihood of responding to drug therapy and guide a patients dosing to ensure optimal treatment (personalized medicine), or assess a patients risk of disease progression and disease recurrence (prognostic medicine).
Our business strategy for future growth is focused on three key initiatives. First, we are working to grow and expand our existing products and markets. Second, we are developing our business internationally and have recently established operations in Europe and Canada. Finally, we intend to continually launch new potentially transformative products across a diverse set of disease indications, complementing our current businesses in oncology, womens health and urology.
Products and Services
We offer ten primary commercial molecular diagnostic tests, including seven predictive medicine tests, two personalized medicine tests, and one prognostic medicine test. We market these tests in the United States through our own sales force of approximately 400 people. We have also established commercial laboratory operations in Munich, Germany and international headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland. We currently market our BRACAnalysis®, COLARIS®, COLARIS AP®, and Prolaris® products through our own sales force in Europe and have entered into distributor agreements with organizations in select Latin American, Asian and African countries.
Our ten commercial molecular diagnostic tests include:
| myRiskTM Hereditary Cancer, our predictive medicine test for hereditary cancers including breast, colorectal, ovarian, endometrial, pancreatic, prostate, gastric and melanoma; |
| BRACAnalysis®, our predictive medicine test for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer; |
| COLARIS®, our predictive medicine test for hereditary colorectal and uterine cancer; |
| COLARIS AP®, our predictive medicine test for hereditary colorectal cancer; |
| MELARIS®, our predictive medicine test for hereditary melanoma; |
| PANEXIA, our predictive medicine test for pancreatic cancer; |
| PREZEON®, our personalized medicine test to assess PTEN status for disease progression and drug response; |
| Prolaris®, our prognostic medicine test for prostate cancer; |
| Theraguide® 5-FU, our personalized medicine test for chemotherapy toxicity to 5-FU; and |
| BARTTM, our predictive medicine test for detecting large genomic rearrangements involved in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. |
On September 3, 2013, we launched myRisk Hereditary Cancer to 250 physician thought leaders as part of a staged product rollout. We intend to expand access to myRisk Hereditary Cancer throughout the fiscal year. On October 29, 2013, we launched myPlan Lung Cancer, a novel gene expression test designed to assist a physician in predicting the aggressiveness of a patients lung cancer, to leading oncologists throughout the United States. We also plan on introducing a third new test this calendar year, myPath Melanoma, a gene expression test that analyzes skin biopsy tissue for the purpose of aiding a dermatopathologist in the accurate diagnosis of melanoma.
14
Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Myriad RBM, Inc., we provide biomarker discovery and companion diagnostic services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical research industries utilizing our multiplexed immunoassay technology. Our technology enables us to efficiently screen large sets of clinical samples from both diseased and non-diseased populations against our extensive menu of protein biomarkers. By analyzing the data generated from these tests, we attempt to discover biomarker patterns that may be used to identify patients who would likely respond to a particular therapy. In addition to the companion diagnostic research revenue received from analyzing these samples, we also use this information to create and validate new biomarkers that can aid us in the development of our own novel molecular diagnostic tests that could aid a physician in making diagnostic and treatment decisions.
Use of Resources
During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we devoted our resources to supporting and growing our molecular diagnostic and companion diagnostic businesses, as well as to the research and development of future molecular and companion diagnostic candidates. We have three reportable operating segmentsresearch, molecular diagnostics and companion diagnostics. See Note 6 Segment and Related Information in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) for information regarding these operating segments.
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, we had net income of $55.5 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.68, compared to net income of $30.1 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.36 per share in the same period in the prior year. Net income and diluted earnings per share results for the three months ended September 30, 2013 included income tax expense of $28.4 million compared to $19.7 million for the same period in the prior year.
Share Repurchase
Under our current stock repurchase program, we repurchased $102.3 million of our outstanding common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2013. In connection with this stock repurchase program our board of directors authorized us to repurchase shares from time to time or on an accelerated basis through open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions as determined by our management. The amount and timing of stock repurchases under the program will depend on business and market conditions, stock price, trading restrictions, acquisition activity and other factors. As of September 30, 2013, we had $51.1 million remaining under the current stock repurchase authorization.
In November 2013, we announced that we had completed the remaining repurchase program and that our board of directors has authorized us to repurchase an additional $300 million of our outstanding common stock. In connection with this stock repurchase program; we have been authorized to repurchase shares through open market transactions or privately negotiated purchases, in each case to be executed at managements discretion based on business and market conditions, stock price, trading restrictions, acquisition activity and other factors. See also Part II, Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those policies which are both important to the presentation of a companys financial condition and results and require managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. No significant changes to our accounting policies took place during the period. For a further discussion of our critical accounting policies, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012
Revenue
Revenue is comprised of sales of our molecular diagnostic tests and our companion diagnostic services. Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $202.5 million, compared to $133.4 million for the same three months in 2012. This 52% increase in revenue is primarily due to increased molecular diagnostic testing volume for our BRACAnalysis, BART, Colaris and Colaris AP tests, and an increase in companion diagnostic services due to increased
15
research collaborations, as disclosed in the table below. We believe that our increased sales, marketing, and education efforts resulted in wider acceptance of our molecular diagnostic tests by the medical community and increased patient testing volumes. We also estimate that we recognized approximately $35 million of additional molecular diagnostic revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2013 in conjunction with celebrity publicity for our BRACAnalysis test, which we believe led to greater recognition and use of that test during the quarter and the impact of which we expect to wane in future periods. In addition, we estimate that molecular diagnostic revenue was negatively impacted by approximately $5 million during the same three months as a result of newly launched competitive tests and we expect that additional competitors may launch tests to compete with us in the future. These competitors have and may continue to offer competing tests at prices that are lower than what we currently charge, which could negatively impact our diagnostic revenue and/or result in reduced profit margins for our products in future periods. There can be no assurance that our revenue or earnings will continue to increase or remain at current levels.
Total revenue of our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services and revenue by product as a percent of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

Costs and Expenses
Cost of revenue is comprised primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, laboratory supplies, royalty payments, equipment costs and facilities expense. Cost of molecular diagnostic testing revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $21.4 million, compared to $13.9 million for the same three months in 2012. This increase of 54% in molecular diagnostic testing cost of revenue is due to the 52% increase in testing volumes. Our costs of companion diagnostic services include similar items. Cost of companion diagnostic services for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $4.0 million, compared to $3.4 million for the same three months in 2012. This 18% increase in companion diagnostic testing cost of revenue is to support the 54% increase in companion diagnostic revenue. Many of the costs associated with the performance of our companion diagnostic services are fixed; consequently, gross margins will vary as we experience fluctuations in our companion diagnostic service revenue.
16
Our cost of revenue may also fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the introduction of new molecular diagnostic tests such as myRisk Hereditary Cancer which was launched in September 2013, testing volumes in both molecular diagnostic and companion diagnostic segments, price changes of existing tests and services, changes in our costs associated with such tests and services and the adoption of new technologies and operating systems in our molecular diagnostic laboratories. There can be no assurance that gross profit margins will remain at current levels.
Our research and development expenses include costs incurred in maintaining and improving our current molecular diagnostic tests and costs incurred for the discovery, validation and development of our pipeline of molecular and companion diagnostic test candidates. Research and development expenses are comprised primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, laboratory supplies, clinical trial costs, equipment, and facilities costs. Research and development expenses incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2013 were $16.8 million compared to $11.4 million for same three months in 2012. This increase of 47% was primarily due to the following:
| an increase of approximately $5.4 million in internal development activities and clinical studies to support our existing and future molecular diagnostic testing products; |
| an increase of $2.0 million due to external research and development activities to develop proprietary technologies for the myRiskTM Hereditary Cancer product; and |
| a decrease of approximately $2.0 million in internal development activities to support our companion diagnostic services business. |
We expect that our research and development expenses will increase over the next several years as we continue to develop our pipeline and expand our offerings of molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services.
Our sales, general and administrative expenses include costs associated with building our molecular diagnostic and companion diagnostic businesses domestically and internationally. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions and related personnel costs for sales, marketing, customer service, billing and collection, executive, legal, finance and accounting, information technology, human resources, and allocated facilities expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were $77.3 million, compared to $56.1 million for the same three months in 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense of 38% was due primarily to supporting the 52% increase in revenue and include:
| an increase in sales and marketing expense of approximately $9.4 million due to various marketing initiatives, added sales force headcount and increased sales commissions associated with the increase in revenue; |
| an increase of approximately $4.5 million in other general administrative expenses; |
| an increase of approximately $4.2 million in bad debt expense; |
| an increase of approximately $1.7 million in legal fees associated with legal proceedings we have instituted or are defending related to our owned and licensed patents underlying our molecular diagnostic products; and |
| an increase of approximately $1.4 million in international administrative costs from our international operations. |
We expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter and that such increases may be substantial, depending on the number and scope of any new molecular diagnostic and companion diagnostic launches, our efforts in support of our existing molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services, our litigation expenses as well as our continued international expansion efforts.
Other Income (Expense)
Interest income was $1.4 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012. Interest income consists primarily of interest income recorded from the note receivable from Crescendo Bioscience, Inc.
17
Income Tax Provision
Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $28.4 million, for an effective income tax rate of approximately 34%, compared to income tax expense of $19.7 million or a 40% effective income tax rate in the same period in 2012. Our quarterly effective tax rate is a sum of the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% and a blended state income tax rate of 4% offset by certain discrete items that are required to be separately recognized during the quarter in which they occurred including a deduction for the write-off of stock in a wholly-owned subsidiary recently divested. In addition, the current period income tax expense was benefited from the recognition of deductions from permanent differences generated from the exercise and disqualification of incentive stock options. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized during the period in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable investment securities were $515.6 million at September 30, 2013 compared to $531.1 million at June 30, 2013, which is a decrease of $15.5 million, or 3%. This decrease in cash, cash equivalents and marketable investment securities was attributable to the purchase of $102.3 million of our common stock under our share repurchase programs offset by cash collections from molecular and companion diagnostic sales.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $90.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $51.4 million during the same three months in 2012. Our net income was reduced by non-cash charges in the form of share-based compensation and depreciation and amortization, which totaled $6.9 million and $2.4 million, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2013.
Our investing activities used cash of $8.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and $5.0 million during the same three months in 2012. Investing activities were comprised of capital expenditures for equipment and facilities of $5.3 million and net purchases of marketable investment securities of $2.8 million.
Financing activities used cash of $101.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and $37.1 million in the same three months in 2012. Cash utilized in financing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to the purchase of $102.3 million of our common stock through our share repurchase programs, partially offset by $0.8 million from cash provided primarily by the exercise of stock options.
We believe that our existing capital resources and net cash expected to be generated from sales of our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services will be adequate to fund our current and planned operations for the next several years, although no assurance can be given that changes will not occur that would consume available capital resources more quickly than we currently expect and that we may need or want to raise additional funds. Our future capital requirements, cash flows, and results of operations could be affected by and will depend on many factors that are currently unknown to us, including:
| failure to sustain revenue growth or margins in our molecular diagnostic testing and companion diagnostic services businesses; |
| increased competition in our major markets or the introduction of technological innovations or new commercial tests by our competitors; |
| the timing and amount of repurchases of our common stock |
| the potential exercise of our option to acquire Crescendo Biosciences, Inc. and the costs associated with such acquisition; |
| termination of the licenses underlying our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services or failure to enter into product or technology licensing or other arrangements favorable to us; |
| delays or other problems with operating our laboratory facilities; |
| the costs and expenses incurred in supporting our existing molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services; |
| the progress, results and cost of developing and launching additional molecular diagnostic tests and offering additional companion diagnostic services; |
| potential business development activities, in-licensing agreements and acquisitions, such as our acquisition of Myriad RBM and our strategic debt investment and option to acquire Crescendo Biosciences, Inc., and our ability to successfully integrate and achieve the expected benefits of our business development activities, in-licensing agreements and acquisitions; |
18
| changes in the government regulatory approval process for our tests; |
| the progress, costs and results of our international expansion efforts; |
| the costs, timing, outcome, and enforcement of any regulatory review of our existing or future molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services; |
| the costs of preparing, filing and prosecuting patent applications, maintaining and enforcing our issued patents and defending intellectual property-related claims; |
| the costs, timing and outcome of any litigation that we are pursuing or against us; |
| changes in intellectual property laws covering our molecular diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic services and patents or enforcement in the United States and foreign countries; |
| changes in the governmental or private insurers reimbursement levels for our tests; and |
| changes in structure of the healthcare system or healthcare payment systems. |
Effects of Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, sales, or operating results during the periods presented.
Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations
The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a companys future prospects and make informed investment decisions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes in our market risk during the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the disclosures in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, which is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) | Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. |

Background
Following the U.S. Supreme Court decision in June 2013 in Association for Molecular Pathology et al. v. Myriad Genetics, Inc. et al., several companies have commenced offering clinical diagnostic and genomic laboratory services, including the testing and analysis of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, that purport to compete with our BRACAnalysis testing and services. We believe that these tests and services infringe various patent claims that we own or have exclusively licensed from the University of Utah Research Foundation, HSC Research and Development Limited Partnership (and affiliate of Hospital For Sick Children), the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, and Endorecherche, Inc. (collectively, the Patent Owners). Under our license agreements with the Patent Owners, we are responsible for pursuing these patent infringement litigations, defending any counterclaims and paying related costs. Accordingly, we have commenced several lawsuits or have received complaints from third parties seeking declaratory judgment, as described below.
Ambry Genetics Corporation
On July 9, 2013, we and the University of Utah Research Foundation, HSC Research and Development Limited Partnership (an affiliate of Hospital For Sick Children), the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, and Endorecherche, Inc.(collectively the Patent Owners) filed a complaint against Ambry Genetics Corporation in the United States District Court for the District of Utah, Central Division, alleging that Ambrys testing services infringe various patent claims owned by the Patent Owners which relate to the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, and seeking an injunction against Ambry from selling any product or service that infringes the claims of these patents. We also requested a preliminary injunction to prevent Ambry from selling these testing services pending a final decision on the merits of the case. On August 5, 2013, Ambry filed an answer to the complaint, including affirmative defenses and counterclaims for antitrust violations of the Sherman Act (only against Myriad) based on the infringement suit filed against Ambry, and seeks declaratory judgments of invalidity and non-infringement with respect to the asserted patent claims, certain injunctive relief with respect to the asserted patent claims and an award of damages, fees and costs. The Patent Owners intend to vigorously enforce their patent rights against Ambry and defend the counterclaims asserted against them.
Gene by Gene LTD
On July 10, 2013, we and the other Patent Owners filed a complaint against Gene by Gene LTD in the United States District Court for the District of Utah, Central Division, alleging that Gene By Genes testing services infringe various patent claims owned by the Patent Owners which relate to the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, and seeking an injunction against Gene By Gene from selling any product or service that infringes the claims of these patents. We also requested a preliminary injunction to prevent Gene By Gene from selling these testing services pending a final decision on the merits of the case. On August 14, 2013, Gene by Gene filed an answer to the complaint, including affirmative defenses and counterclaims for antitrust violations of the Sherman Act (only against Myriad) based on the infringement suit filed against Gene by Gene, and seeks declaratory judgments of invalidity and non-infringement with respect to the asserted patent claims, certain injunctive relief with respect to the asserted patent claims and an award of damages, fees and costs. The Patent Owners intend to vigorously enforce their patent rights against Gene By Gene and defend the counterclaims asserted against them.
Counsyl, Inc.
On September 20, 2013, Counsyl, Inc. filed a complaint for declaratory judgment against Myriad Genetics, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, seeking a judgment that Counsyl has not infringed, and is not infringing, various patent claims owned by the Patent Owners relating to BRCA testing, and a judgment that various patent claims owned by the Patent Owners are invalid. On November 1, 2013, Myriad filed a motion to dismiss or in the alternative to transfer Counsyls complaint for declaratory judgment to the United States District Court for the District of Utah, Central Division.
21
Quest Diagnostics Incorporated and Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute
On October 10, 2013, Quest Diagnostics Incorporated and Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute (collectively Quest) filed a complaint for declaratory judgment against Myriad Genetics, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, seeking a judgment that Quest Diagnostics Incorporated and Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute has not infringed, and is not infringing, various patent claims owned by the Patent Owners relating to BRCA testing, and a judgment that various patent claims owned by the Patent Owners are invalid. On November 6, 2013, Myriad filed a motion to dismiss or in the alternative to transfer Quests complaint for declaratory judgment to the United States District Court for the District of Utah, Central Division. On October 22, 2013, Myriad and the other Patent Owners filed a complaint against Quest in the United States District Court for the District of Utah, Central Division, alleging that Quests testing services related to the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes infringe various patent claims owned by the Patent Owners, and seeking an injunction against Quest from selling any product or service that infringes the claims of these patents. The Patent Owners intend to vigorously enforce their patent rights against Quest.
GeneDx, Inc.
On October 16, 2013, the Patent Owners filed a Complaint against GeneDx in the United States District Court for the District of Utah, Central Division, alleging that GeneDxs testing services infringe various patent claims owned by the Patent Owners which relate to the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, and seek an injunction against GeneDx from selling any product or service which infringes the claims of the patents asserted. No responsive pleadings have yet been filed by GeneDx. The Patent Owners intend to vigorously enforce their patent rights against GeneDx.
Other than as set forth above, we are not a party to any legal proceedings that we believe will have a material impact on our business, financial position or results of operations.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.
