Biggest changeOur current and future indebtedness, including the Amended Note, the Term Loan Facilities and the Revolving Credit Facility may have significant negative effects on our operations, including: impairing our ability to obtain additional financing in the future (or to obtain such financing on acceptable terms) for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other important needs, and subjecting us to other restrictive covenants that may reduce our ability to take certain corporate actions; requiring us to dedicate a portion of our cash resources to the payment of interest and principal, reducing money available to fund working capital, capital expenditures, potential acquisitions, international expansion, new product development, new enterprise relationships and other general corporate purposes; requiring us to repay the principal and accrued interest on the Amended Note if we terminate our agreement with Google for use of Google Cloud or as a result of an event of default under the operating covenants in the Amended Note, or requiring us to repay the principal and accrued interest on the Term Loan Facility in an event of default under the covenants of the Term Loan Facility, either of which could impair our liquidity and reduce the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other important needs; 71 limiting our ability to adjust to rapidly changing conditions in the industry, reducing our ability to withstand competitive pressures and making us more vulnerable to a downturn in general economic conditions or business than our competitors with relatively lower levels of debt; and requiring us, in certain circumstances, to obtain approval from Ares and/or the lenders party to the Credit Agreement before embarking on certain mergers, acquisitions, capital expenditures, or other operational issues.
Biggest changeAs of December 31, 2025, we had indebtedness of $1.3 billion, comprising (i) $208.7 million under the convertible promissory note, as amended, or the Second Amended Note, that we issued to Google LLC, or Google, (ii) $206.0 million of senior secured term loans, or the Additional Term Loan Facility, and $100.0 million in priority revolving loan commitments, or the Revolving Credit Facility, pursuant to a credit agreement, or as amended, the Credit Agreement, with affiliates of Ares Capital Corporation, or Ares and (iii) $750.0 million of 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030, or the Notes, Our current and future indebtedness may have significant negative effects on our operations, including: impairing our ability to obtain additional financing in the future (or to obtain such financing on acceptable terms) for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other important needs, and subjecting us to other restrictive covenants that may reduce our ability to take certain corporate actions; requiring us to dedicate a portion of our cash resources to the payment of interest and principal, reducing money available to fund working capital, capital expenditures, potential acquisitions, international expansion, new product development, new enterprise relationships and other general corporate purposes; requiring us to repay the principal and accrued interest on the Second Amended Note if we terminate our agreement with Google for use of Google Cloud or as a result of an event of default under the operating covenants in the Second Amended Note, or requiring us to repay the principal and accrued interest on the Additional Term Loan Facility and/or the Revolving Credit Facility in an event of default under the covenants of the Credit Agreement, any of which could impair our liquidity and reduce the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other important needs; 65 limiting our ability to adjust to rapidly changing conditions in the industry, reducing our ability to withstand competitive pressures and making us more vulnerable to a downturn in general economic conditions or business than our competitors with relatively lower levels of debt; in the event the conditional conversion feature of the Notes is triggered, requiring us under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the Notes as a current rather than a long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital; and requiring us, in certain circumstances, to obtain approval from Ares and/or the lenders party to the Credit Agreement before embarking on certain mergers, acquisitions, capital expenditures, or other operational issues.
The drugs recommended, the clinical trials explored, the care pathways evaluated, the adverse events considered—all have the potential to be refined and enhanced when test results are connected to a patient’s personal profile, enabling the right patient to be routed to the right therapy at the right time.

Risk Factors and should not be relied upon as an exhaustive summary of the material risks and uncertainties facing our business. We have incurred significant losses since inception, we may continue to incur losses in the future, and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve and maintain profitability. Our current or future products may not achieve or maintain sufficient commercial market acceptance. Our operating results may fluctuate significantly, which makes our future operating results difficult to predict and could cause our operating results to fall below expectations or any guidance we may provide. The success of our business depends on our continued access to, and ability to monetize, de-identified patient data. Our limited operating history and rapid growth make it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and the risks and challenges we may encounter. 51 We may need to raise additional capital to fund our existing operations, develop our Platform, commercialize new products or expand our operations. Our AI Applications product line is nascent. Our diagnostic products, or our competitors’ diagnostic products, could have defects or errors or otherwise fail to meet the expectations of patients, physicians and third-party payers; in such cases our operating results, reputation and business could suffer. If third-party payers, including commercial payers and government healthcare programs, do not provide coverage of, or adequate reimbursement for, or reverse or change their policies related to our tests, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be negatively affected. If we are unable to obtain or maintain adequate reimbursement for our Genomics product line outside of the United States, our ability to expand internationally will be compromised. Labor relations matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. We use AI in our products and services which may result in operational challenges, legal liability, reputational concerns and competitive risks. If we cannot compete successfully with our competitors, we may be unable to increase or sustain our revenue or to achieve and then sustain profitability. The industries in which we operate are subject to rapid change, which could make our Platform, our current products and any future products we may develop obsolete. Our existing and any future debt may affect our flexibility in operating and developing our business and our ability to satisfy our obligations. We rely on a limited number of suppliers or, in some cases, sole suppliers, for some of our laboratory instruments and materials and may not be able to find replacements or promptly transition to alternative suppliers. International expansion of our business exposes us to business, regulatory, political, operational, financial, and economic risks associated with doing business outside of the United States. We and the third parties with whom we work are subject to stringent and evolving U.S. and foreign laws, regulations, and rules, contractual obligations, industry standards, policies and other obligations related to data privacy and security.
