The Company

Our business consists of two segments: our “OSUR” business consists of the development, manufacture, marketing and sale of oral fluid diagnostic products and specimen collection devices using our proprietary technologies, other diagnostic products including immunoassays and other in vitro diagnostic tests that are used on other specimen types. Our molecular products and services business, or DNAG business consists of the manufacture and sale of kits that are used to collect, stabilize, transport and store samples of genetic material for molecular testing in the consumer genetic, clinical genetic, academic research, pharmacogenomics, personalized medicine, microbiome and animal genetics markets. Our collection kits are also used for the collection of first-void urine for liquid biopsy in the prostate and bladder cancer markets; and in the sexually transmitted infection screening market. In addition, our DNAG business provides microbiome laboratory and bioinformatics services.

Our OSUR diagnostic products include tests for diseases including HIV and Hepatitis C that are performed on a rapid basis at the point of care and tests that are processed in a laboratory. These products are sold in the United States and internationally to various clinical laboratories, hospitals, clinics, and other public health organizations, distributors, government agencies, physicians’ offices, and commercial and industrial entities. Our HIV product is also sold in a consumer-friendly format in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market in the U.S. and as a self-test to individuals in a number of other countries. We also previously manufactured and sold medical devices used for the removal of benign skin lesions by cryosurgery or freezing. We sold the assets associated with our cryosurgical systems business to a third party in August 2019. See further discussion at Note 4.

Our DNAG business is operated by our subsidiaries, DNA Genotek Inc. (“DNAG”), CoreBiome Inc. (“CoreBiome”), Novosanis NV (“Novosanis”), and Diversigen, Inc. (“Diversigen”).   DNAG’s specimen collection devices provide all-in-one systems for the collection, stabilization, transportation and storage of nucleic acids from human saliva and other sample types for genetic and microbiome applications. CoreBiome and Diversigen provide laboratory and bioinformatics services. Novosanis’ Colli-Pee collection device is designed for the volumetric collection of first-void urine for use in research, screening and diagnostics for the liquid biopsy and sexually transmitted infection markets. We also sell research use only sample collection products into the microbiome market and we offer our customers a suite of genomics and microbiome services, which range from package customization and study design optimization to extraction, analysis and reporting services. We serve customers worldwide in the research, healthcare, pharmaceutical and agricultural communities

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OraSure Technologies, Inc. (“OraSure”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, DNAG, CoreBiome, Novosanis and Diversigen. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. References herein to “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company” mean OraSure and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations for these interim periods. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the full year.

 

Use of Estimates. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for business combinations, the valuation of accounts receivable and inventories and assumptions utilized in impairment testing for intangible assets and goodwill, as well as calculations related to accruals, taxes, contingent consideration, and performance-based compensation expense, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, using historical experience and other factors, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the current economic environment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment and other factors will be reflected in the financial statements in those future periods.

 

Investments. We consider all investments in debt securities to be available-for-sale securities. These securities consist of guaranteed investment certificates and corporate bonds with purchased maturities greater than ninety days. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, based upon quoted market prices, with unrealized gains and losses, if any, reported in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.

-7-


 

We record an allowance for credit loss for our available-for-sale securities when a decline in investment market value is due to credit-related factors. When evaluating an investment for impairment, we review factors such as the severity of the impairment, changes in underlying credit ratings, forecasted recovery, the Company’s intent to sell or the likelihood that it would be required to sell the investment before its anticipated recovery in market value and the probability that the scheduled cash payments will continue to be made. As of March 31, 2020, we determined that the decline in the market value of our available-for-sale investment was not due to credit-related factors and as such no allowance for credit-loss was necessary.

The following is a summary of our available-for-sale securities as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their respective fair values based on their short-term nature.

Fair value measurements of all financial assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis are required to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

All of our available-for-sale securities are measured as Level 2 instruments as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Included in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, was $21,660 and $1,624 invested in government money market funds. These funds have investments in government securities and are measured as Level 1 instruments.

We offer a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for certain eligible employees and members of our Board of Directors. The assets of the plan are held in the name of the Company at a third-party financial institution. Separate accounts are maintained for each participant to reflect the amounts deferred by the participant and all earnings and losses on those deferred amounts. The assets of the plan are held in mutual funds. The fair value of the plan assets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $3,444 and $3,519, respectively, and was calculated using the quoted market prices of the assets as of those dates. All investments in the plan are classified as trading securities and measured as Level 1 instruments. The fair value of plan assets is included in both current assets and noncurrent assets with the same amount included in accrued expenses and other noncurrent liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

-8-


Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable have been reduced by an estimated allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. This estimated allowance is based primarily on management’s evaluation of specific balances as they become past due, the financial condition of our customers and our historical experience related to write-offs.

Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis, and consist of the following:

Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Additions or improvements are capitalized, while repairs and maintenance are charged to expense. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Buildings are depreciated over twenty to forty years, while computer equipment, machinery and equipment, and furniture and fixtures are depreciated over two to ten years. Building improvements are amortized over their estimated useful lives. When assets are sold, retired, or discarded, the related property amounts are relieved from the accounts, and any gain or loss is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Accumulated depreciation of property, plant and equipment as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $49,417 and $46,882, respectively.

Intangible Assets. Intangible assets consist of customer relationships, patents and product rights, acquired technology and tradenames. Patents and product rights consist of costs associated with the acquisition of patents, licenses, and product distribution rights. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five to fifteen years. Accumulated amortization of intangible assets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $22,812 and $23,420, respectively. The change in intangibles from $14,674 as of December 31, 2019 to $15,746 as of March 31, 2020 is a result of the acquisition of patent and product rights of $2,250 offset by foreign currency translation losses of $446 and $732 in amortization expense.  

Goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price we paid over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in our acquisitions of DNAG, CoreBiome, Novosanis and Diversigen. All acquired goodwill has been allocated to our DNAG segment. Goodwill is not amortized but rather is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if we believe that indicators of impairment exist. Current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles permit us to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment. If we conclude that it is more likely than not that the carrying value of a reporting unit is greater than its fair value, then we would be required to recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, provided the impairment charge does not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

The decrease in goodwill from $36,201 as of December 31, 2019 to $34,544 as of March 31, 2020 is a result of a purchase price adjustment related to one of our acquisitions of $126 and a decrease of $1,531 associated with foreign currency translation.

Leases. In February 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The standard requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis and did not restate comparative amounts. Also, we elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows us to carryforward our historical lease classification, our assessment on whether a contract is or contains a lease, and our initial direct costs for any leases that exist prior to adoption of the new standard. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet and the associated lease payments are included in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As a result, on January 1, 2019, we recorded right-of-use assets of $4,027 and lease liabilities of $4,263 on our consolidated balance sheet.

Business Combinations and Contingent Consideration. Acquired businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that the purchase price be allocated to the net assets acquired at their respective fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Amounts allocated to contingent consideration are recorded to the balance sheet at the date of acquisition based on their relative fair values. The purchase price allocation requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date, with respect to intangible assets. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made are reasonable, they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain.

We account for contingent consideration in accordance with applicable guidance provided within the business combination accounting standard. As part of our consideration for the CoreBiome and Novosanis acquisitions, we are contractually obligated to pay certain consideration resulting from the outcome of future events. Therefore, we are required to update our underlying assumptions each reporting period, based on new developments, and record such contingent consideration liabilities at fair value until the contingency is resolved. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities are recognized each reporting period and included in our consolidated statements of operations.  Our estimates

-9-


of fair value are based on assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but the assumptions are uncertain and involve significant judgment by management.  Updates to these assumptions could have a significant impact on our results of operations in any given period and any updates to the fair value of the contingent consideration could differ materially from the previous estimates.

Examples of critical estimates used in valuing certain intangible assets and contingent consideration include:

 

 

 

 

 

 

• 

 

future expected cash flows from sales and acquired developed technologies;

 

 

 

 

 

 

• 

 

the acquired company's trade name and customer relationships as well as assumptions about the period of time the acquired trade name and customer relationships will continue to be used in the combined company's portfolio;

 

 

 

 

 

 

• 

 

the probability of meeting the future events; and

 

 

 

 

 

 

• 

 

discount rates used to determine the present value of estimated future cash flows.

 

Loss Per Share. Basic and diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is generally computed assuming the exercise or vesting of all dilutive securities such as common stock options, unvested performance stock units, and unvested restricted stock. Basic and dilutive computations of net loss per share are the same in periods in which a net loss exists as the dilutive effects of excluded items would be anti-dilutive.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, outstanding common stock options, unvested restricted stock, and unvested performance stock units representing 312 and 779 shares, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.       

Foreign Currency Translation. The assets and liabilities of our foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates as of the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Transaction gains and losses resulting from exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in currencies other than a functional currency are included in our consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the change occurs. Net foreign exchange gains (losses) resulting from foreign currency transactions that are included in other income in our consolidated statements of income were $693 and $(609) for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.     

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). We classify items of other comprehensive income (loss) by their nature and disclose the accumulated balance of other comprehensive loss separately from accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital in the stockholders’ equity section of our consolidated balance sheets.

We have defined the Canadian dollar as the functional currency of our Canadian subsidiary, DNAG, and we have defined the Euro as the functional currency of our Belgian subsidiary, Novosanis. The results of operations for those subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars, which is the reporting currency of the Company. Accumulated other comprehensive loss at March 31, 2020 consists of $21,243 of currency translation adjustments and $556 of net unrealized losses on marketable securities, which represents the fair market value adjustment for our investment portfolio. Accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2019 consists of $12,022 of currency translation adjustments and $114 of net unrealized losses on marketable securities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.  In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance on the measurement of credit losses, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets, including trade receivables and capital lease receivables, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The method to determine a loss is different from the existing guidance, which requires a credit loss to be recognized when it is probable. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2020 and the impact of the adoption was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements as credit losses are not expected to be significant based on historical collection trends, the financial condition of payment partners, and external market factors. The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of the recent coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on expected credit losses. In addition, the new guidance requires us to record an allowance for credit loss when a decline in investment market value is due to credit-related factors. As of January 1, 2020, there was no material decline in the market value of available-for-sale investments due to credit-related factors.

In February 2018, the FASB issued guidance allowing a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The guidance is effective in fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If elected, the reclassification can be applied in either the period of adoption or retrospectively to the period of the enactment of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (i.e., our first quarter of fiscal year 2018). We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2020 and the impact of the adoption was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance related to fair value measurement disclosures. This guidance removes the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for determining that a transfer has occurred, and valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. Additionally, this guidance modifies the disclosures related to the measurement uncertainty for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements (by removing the requirement to disclose sensitivity to future changes) and the timing of liquidation of investee assets (by removing the timing requirement in certain instances). The guidance also requires new disclosures for Level 3 financial assets and liabilities, including the amount and location of unrealized gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income(loss) and additional information related to significant unobservable inputs used in determining Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance is effective beginning in fiscal year 2020. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2020 and the impact of the adoption was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

3. Business Combinations

CoreBiome and Novosanis

On January 4, 2019, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of CoreBiome, pursuant to the terms of a merger agreement, dated January 3, 2019. Also on January 4, 2019, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired all of the outstanding stock of Novosanis, pursuant to a share purchase agreement, dated January 3, 2019. We began operating these entities as of the January 4, 2019 closing date. The aggregate purchase price for both of these transactions was $13,320 adjusted for certain transaction costs, indebtedness, and holdback amounts, and was funded with cash on hand. A portion of the purchase price was deposited into escrow accounts for a limited period after closing, in order to secure the potential payment of certain indemnification obligations of the selling stockholders under each agreement noted above.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we incurred a total of $597 of acquisition-related costs in connection with these acquisitions, including success-based investment banking fees and accounting, legal and other professional fees, related to both acquisitions, all of which were expensed and reported as a component of general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Pursuant to our acquisition agreements, we were to pay up to an additional $32,400 of contingent consideration over the next three years based on the achievement of certain performance criteria as defined under the agreements, including generating certain revenue dollars, the achievement of a large customer contract, and the development of certain new technology. The Company, with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist, utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to determine the estimated acquisition-date fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration of $4,350. The simulation calculated the probability-weighted payments based on our assessment of the likelihood that the benchmarks will be achieved. The probability-weighted payments were then discounted using a discount rate based on an internal rate of return analysis using the probability-weighted cash flows. The fair value measurement was based on significant inputs, including revenue forecasts, not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration obligation changed from $4,350 as of the acquisition date to $5,625 as of March 31, 2019 as a result of changes in our estimated revenue forecasts.  The fair value of the contingent consideration obligation changed from $3,612 as of December 31, 2019 to $1,220 as of March 31, 2020.  This change is a result of a $3,500 payment made in the first quarter of 2020, changes in our estimated revenue forecasts and an amendment to one of the agreements.  The amendment was entered into in March 2020, in which the terms of the contingent consideration provisions associated with one of the acquisitions were modified and are expected to be paid during the first quarter of 2021. As of March 31, 2020, we may pay up to an additional $22,500 of contingent consideration over the next year and a half.

The purchase price was allocated to the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their acquisition-date estimate fair values. The identifiable intangible assets principally included developed technology, customer relationships, and tradenames, all of which are subject to amortization on a straight-line basis and are being amortized over estimated useful lives as summarized below:

The Company, with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist, assessed the fair value of the assets of CoreBiome and Novosanis. The income approach was used to value the acquired intangibles and the fair value measurements were primarily based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and are considered Level 3 fair value measurements. The income approach estimates fair value for an asset based on the present value of cash flows projected to be generated by the asset.  Projected cash flows are discounted at a required rate of return that reflects the relative risk of achieving the cash flows and the time value of money.

The useful lives of the intangible assets were estimated based on the expected future economic benefit of the assets and are being amortized over the estimated useful life in proportion to the economic benefits consumed using the straight-line method.  The amortization of intangible assets is not deductible for income tax purposes.

 

Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the net assets acquired, and represents the future economic benefits that we expect to achieve as a result of the acquisition. We believe the goodwill related to the acquisitions was a result of providing us a complementary service and product offering that will enable us to leverage those services and products with existing and new customers.  The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.  All of the goodwill identified above has been allocated to our DNAG segment.

Revenues from CoreBiome primarily consist of microbiome laboratory services that utilize optimal analytical algorithms to deliver speed and scalability in the lab with precise analytics.  Revenues from Novosanis primarily consist of the sale of its Colli-Pee collection device which was designed for the standard collection of first-void urine used in the liquid biopsy and sexually transmitted infection screening market. Effective as of January 4, 2019, the financial results of CoreBiome and Novosanis are included in our DNAG segment.        

Diversigen

 

On November 8, 2019, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Diversigen pursuant to the terms of a merger agreement. We began operating this entity as of the November 8, 2019 closing date.

-12-


 

The aggregate purchase price for this transaction was $12,000, adjusted for certain transaction costs, indebtedness, and holdback amounts, and was funded with cash on hand. A portion of the purchase price was deposited into an escrow account for a limited period after closing, pursuant to indemnification obligations under the merger agreement noted above.  

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not incur any acquisition related costs associated with this transaction, including investment banking fees and accounting, legal and other professional fees.

Pursuant to our acquisition agreements, we were to pay up to an additional $1,500 of contingent consideration in 2020 based on the achievement of certain 2019 revenue metrics as defined under the agreements which did not occur.

We believe the goodwill related to the acquisitions was a result of providing us a complementary service and product offering that will enable us to leverage those services and products with existing and new customers.  The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.  All of the goodwill identified above has been allocated to our DNAG segment.

We continue to evaluate the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Additional information, which existed as of the acquisition date, but was at that time unknown to us, may become known during the remainder of the measurement period. Changes to amounts recorded as a result of the final determination may result in a corresponding adjustment to these assets and liabilities, including goodwill. The determination of the estimated fair values of all assets acquired is expected to be completed within one year from the date of acquisition.

Revenues from Diversigen primarily consist of microbiome laboratory services that provide metagenomics sequencing, bioinformatics and statistical analysis for the study of the microbiome. Effective as of November 8, 2019, the financial results of Diversigen are included in our DNAG segment.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma results presented below include the results of the CoreBiome, Diversigen and Novosanis acquisitions as if they had been consummated as of January 1, 2019. The unaudited pro forma results include the amortization associated with acquired intangible assets and the estimated tax effect of adjustments to income before income taxes but do not include changes in the fair value of our contingent consideration obligations. Material nonrecurring charges, directly attributable to the transactions, including direct acquisition costs, are also excluded. In addition, the unaudited pro forma results do not include any expected benefits of the acquisitions. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results that might have been achieved had the acquisitions been consummated as of January 1, 2019.

Customer and Vendor Concentrations. One of our customers accounted for 12% of our accounts receivable as of March 31, 2020. Another customer accounted for 19% of our accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019. We had no significant customer concentrations (greater than 10%) in our net consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019           

 

We currently purchase certain products and critical components of our products from sole-supply vendors. If these vendors are unable or unwilling to supply the required components and products, we could be subject to increased costs and substantial delays in the delivery of our products to our customers. Also, our subsidiary, DNAG, uses two third-party suppliers to manufacture its product. Our inability to have a timely supply of any of these components and products could have a material adverse effect on our business, as well as our financial condition and results of operations.

Deferred Revenue.  We record deferred revenue when funds are received prior to the recognition of the associated revenue.  Deferred revenue as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 includes customer prepayments of $2,508 and $1,904, respectively.  Deferred revenue as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 also includes $ 1,804 and $1,809, respectively, associated with a long-term contract that has variable pricing based on volume. The average price over the life of the contract was determined and revenue is recognized at that rate.

Leases

We determine whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. We have operating and finance leases for corporate offices, warehouse space and equipment (including vehicles). As of March 31, 2020, we are the lessee in all agreements. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 to 7 years, some of which include options to extend the leases based on agreed upon terms, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year.

As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

We have lease agreements that contain both lease and non-lease components (e.g., common-area maintenance). For these agreements, we account for lease components separate from non-lease components.

The components of lease expense are as follows:

Stock-Based Awards

We grant stock-based awards under the OraSure Technologies, Inc. Stock Award Plan, as amended (the “Stock Plan”). The Stock Plan permits stock-based awards to employees, outside directors and consultants or other third-party advisors. Awards which may be granted under the Stock Plan include qualified incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted awards, performance awards and other stock-based awards. We account for stock-based compensation to employees and directors using the fair value method. We recognize compensation expense for stock option and restricted stock awards issued to employees and directors on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. We recognize compensation expense related to performance-based restricted stock units based on assumptions as to what percentage of each performance target will be achieved. We evaluate these target assumptions on a quarterly basis and adjust compensation expense related to these awards, as appropriate. To satisfy the exercise of options, issuance of restricted stock, or redemption of performance-based restricted stock units, we issue new shares rather than shares purchased on the open market.

Total compensation cost related to stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $253 and $324 respectively. Net cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options were $30 and $22 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As a result of our net operating loss carryforward position, no actual income tax benefit was realized from stock option exercises during these periods.

We grant performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to certain executives. Vesting of these PSUs is dependent upon achievement of performance-based metrics during a one-year or three-year period from the date of grant. Assuming achievement of each performance-based metric, the executive must also generally remain in our service for three years from the grant date. Performance during the one-year period is based on a one-year earnings per share or income before income taxes target. If the one-year target is achieved, the PSUs will then vest three years from grant date. Performance during the three-year period will be based on achievement of a three-year compound annual growth rate for consolidated product revenues. If the three-year target is achieved, the corresponding PSUs will then vest three years from grant date. PSUs are converted into shares of our common stock once vested.

Compensation cost of $44 and $254 related to PSUs was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 Stock Repurchase Program

On August 5, 2008, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program pursuant to which we are permitted to acquire up to $25,000 of our outstanding common shares. No shares were purchased and retired during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.   

8.

Income Taxes

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded income tax expense of $712 which primarily consists of foreign tax expense.  During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded and income tax benefit of $29 which primarily consists of a foreign tax benefit offset by nominal domestic tax expense.

Tax expense reflects taxes due to the taxing authorities and the tax effects of temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting and tax purposes, and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The significant components of our total deferred tax liability as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 relate to the tax effects of the basis difference between the intangible assets acquired in our acquisitions for financial reporting and for tax purposes.

In 2008, we established a full valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax asset. Management believes the full valuation allowance is still appropriate at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 since the facts and circumstances necessitating the allowance have not changed. As a result, no U.S. federal or state deferred income tax expense or benefit was recorded for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

9.

Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In management’s opinion, the outcomes of such actions, either individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our future financial position or results of operations.

Business Segment Information

Our business consists of two segments: our “OSUR” business consists of the development, manufacture, marketing and sale of oral fluid diagnostic products and specimen collection devices using our proprietary technologies, other diagnostic products including immunoassays and other in vitro diagnostic tests that are used on other specimen types. Our DNAG business consists of the development, manufacture, marketing and sale of specimen collection kits that are used to collect, stabilize, transport and store samples of genetic material for molecular testing. Our collection kits are also used for the collection of first-void urine for liquid biopsy in the prostate and bladder cancer markets; and in the sexually transmitted infection screening market. In addition, our DNAG business provides microbiome laboratory services that accelerate research and discovery for customers in the pharmaceutical, agricultural, and academic research markets. Financial results of CoreBiome, Novosanis and Diversigen are included in our DNAG segment. Our cryosurgical systems business was included in our OSUR segment and the impact of the sale of that business in August 2019 is reflected in the results presented below. 

We organized our operating segments according to the nature of the products included in those segments. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 2). We evaluate performance of our operating segments based on revenue and operating income. We do not allocate interest income, interest expense, other income, other expenses or income taxes to our operating segments. Reportable segments have no inter-segment revenues and inter-segment expenses have been eliminated.

Overview and Business Segments

 

Our business consists of two segments: our “OSUR” business consists of the development, manufacture, marketing and sale of oral fluid diagnostic products and specimen collection devices using our proprietary technologies, other diagnostic products including immunoassays and other in vitro diagnostic tests that are used on other specimen types. Our DNAG business consists of the manufacture and sale of kits that are used to collect, stabilize, transport and store biological samples of genetic material for molecular testing. Our collection kits are also used for the collection of first-void urine for liquid biopsy in the prostate and bladder cancer markets; and in the sexually transmitted infection screening market. In addition, our DNAG business provides microbiome laboratory and bioinformatics services. The DNAG segment also includes genomic and microbiome laboratory testing and analytical services.

Our OSUR diagnostic products include tests for diseases including HIV and Hepatitis C that are performed on a rapid basis at the point of care and tests that are processed in a laboratory. These products are sold in the United States and internationally to various clinical laboratories, hospitals, clinics, and other public health organizations, distributors, government agencies, physicians’ offices, and commercial and industrial entities. Our HIV product is also sold in a consumer-friendly format in the OTC and public health markets in the U.S. and as a self-test to individuals in a number of other countries. We also previously manufactured and sold medical devices used for the removal of benign skin lesions by cryosurgery or freezing. These cryosurgical products were sold in both professional and OTC markets in North America, Europe, Central and South America, and Australia. We sold the assets associated with our cryosurgical systems business to a third party in August 2019.    

Our DNAG business is operated by our subsidiaries, DNAG, CoreBiome, Novosanis and Diversigen. DNAG’s specimen collection devices provide all-in-one systems for the collection, stabilization, transportation and storage of nucleic acids from human saliva and other biological sample types for genetic and microbiome applications. Our products are used for academic research and commercial applications, including ancestry, disease risk management, lifestyle and animal testing.  Included in the disease risk management area are pharmacogenomics testing, hereditary disease screening, prenatal or cancer screening, population health initiatives and other molecular testing in DNA or RNA for the diagnosis of acute disease.  CoreBiome and Diversigen provide the laboratory testing and bioinformatics services. Novosanis’ Colli-Pee collection device is designed for the volumetric collection of first-void urine for use in research, screening and diagnostics for the liquid biopsy and sexually transmitted infection markets. We also sell research use only sample collection products into the microbiome market and we offer our customers a suite of genomics and microbiome services, which range from package customization and study design optimization to extraction, analysis and reporting services. We serve customers worldwide in the research, healthcare, pharmaceutical and agricultural communities.  

Recent Developments

Impact of COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic.  This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the outbreak’s effects on the Company’s business or results of operations at this time.

 

During the first quarter of 2020, traditional HIV and HCV testing programs and drug testing in the workplace market began to be reduced or terminated as a result of the various “stay-at-home” orders and social distancing guidelines issued by federal, state and local governments to contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.  On the international front, during the first quarter of 2020, we experienced some delays with international shipments due to a reduction of customs and transportation personnel, a reduced number of air flights and shipping congestion.  In our molecular segment, clinical and research work during the first quarter, particularly in the academic market, has reduced demand for our products.  Although these trends did not materially impact our first quarter 2020 financial results, we believe they will continue and will have a greater adverse impact on the revenues of certain parts of our business for an indeterminate time period, depending on the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Despite the expected negative impacts from COVID-19, we also believe there are potentially significant opportunities for increased revenues as a result of the pandemic.  In the U.S., public health customers are purchasing increased quantities of our OraQuick® In-Home HIV Test in order to permit continued HIV testing while allowing clients and patients to adhere to “stay-at-home” and social distancing requirements.  In addition, we are seeing increased demand for our molecular collection products from customers who conduct both saliva and blood-based testing. As it becomes increasingly difficult to collect blood in clinics or healthcare settings, these customers are increasingly relying on the saliva collection alternative.  As described below, we are also developing new tests for coronavirus and are working to validate the use of a number of our existing molecular collection products for use in COVID-19 testing.  If we are successful in these efforts, we believe these new products and the expanded use of our existing products could result in significant additional revenues that could potentially offset or exceed the lost revenues expected in other parts of our business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

COVID-19 Product Development

In April 2020, we were awarded a contract for $710,310 in funding from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response’s Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (“BARDA”) to develop a

-21-


pan-SARS-coronavirus rapid in-home self-test that uses oral fluid samples and that will be based on our OraQuick® platform which currently supports HIV, HCV, and Ebola testing. This support from BARDA will enable the Company to file for FDA Emergency Use Authorization allowing for an in-home self-test to debut into the U.S. market. In addition to a rapid coronavirus antigen self-test, we are developing a lab-based oral fluid microplate coronavirus antibody enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

 

We are also actively engaged with several laboratories and researchers to demonstrate the effectiveness of our existing products for use with coronavirus testing. Recent publications show that the coronavirus can be successfully detected in saliva. The stabilization solution in our molecular collection products can accommodate a very broad spectrum of microbiome activity spanning bacteria to viruses and we are collecting data on the usability of our kits for this purpose.  Although we understand that the current standard for collecting COVID-19 samples is with a nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal swab, we believe that oral samples collected using devices from our product lines for liquid saliva or oral swab samples could be a suitable alternative. Unlike nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs which cannot be self-administered, our products are optimized for self-collection. That means healthcare providers, retailers, and online vendors could ship our kits directly to an individual’s home, eliminating unnecessary trips to hospitals, doctors’ offices and testing facilities. Self-collection would support the social distancing guidelines already in place in many communities, reduce the burden on testing sites and healthcare facilities, provide wider access to testing and curb the spread of virus.

 

Moreover, the chemistry in our products stabilizes nucleic acids, including RNA, which is the nucleic acid used by most labs for COVID-19 testing. The usability and form factor of these products are ideal for use in at-home or clinic settings. Should the data support the use of our existing products for COVID-19 diagnostics, additional avenues of sample collection will be enabled. We expect to receive this data in the near future as this validation requires paired sampling from infected patients.  

Current Consolidated Financial Results

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, our consolidated net revenues increased 5% to $31.6 million, compared to $30.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Net product and services revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased 9% when compared to the same period of 2019, primarily due to higher international sales of our OraQuick® HIV Self-Test, higher sales of our genomics products, and increased laboratory service revenues. Partially offsetting these increases were lower sales of our domestic and international HCV products and the absence of cryosurgical sales as a result of the divestiture of our cryosurgical systems business in August 2019. Other revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $710,000 compared to $1.8 million in the same period of 2019. This decline is largely due to lower royalty income.

Our consolidated net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $7.3 million or $0.12 per share on a fully diluted basis, compared to consolidated net loss of $3.3 million, or $0.05 per share on a fully diluted basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 included a $1.1 million non-cash pre-tax charge associated with the change in the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration, which approximated $0.02 per share. Results in the first quarter of 2019 included $1.3 million of a non-cash pre-tax charge associated with the change in the fair value of our acquisition-related contingent consideration and $597,000 of acquisition-related transaction costs.  The combined impact of these charges reduced our fully diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.03.  

Cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $2.5 million. Cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $528,000. As of March 31, 2020, we had $176.2 million in cash, cash equivalents, and available-for-sale securities, compared to $189.8 million at December 31, 2019.

Consolidated net product and services revenues increased 9% to $30.9 million in the first quarter of 2020 from $28.3 million in the comparable period of 2019. Higher sales of our international HIV and genomics products and higher laboratory services revenues were partially offset by lower domestic and international OraQuick® HCV sales and the absence of cryosurgical systems revenues due to the sale of our cryosurgical systems business in August 2019. Other revenues for the first quarter of 2020 were $710,000 compared to $1.8 million in the same period of 2019. Other revenues in the first quarter of 2020 included $446,000 in royalty income earned under a litigation settlement agreement and other revenues of $264,000 associated with funded research and development, reimbursement of certain costs under our charitable support agreement with the Gates Foundation, and grant revenue. Other revenues in the first quarter of 2019 included $1.1 million in royalty income earned under a litigation settlement agreement and $706,000 in research and development funding, reimbursement of certain costs under our charitable support agreement with the Gates Foundation, and grant revenue. 

Consolidated net revenues derived from products sold to customers outside of the United States were $10.0 million and $9.6 million, or 32% of total net revenues, in the first quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively. Because the majority of our international sales are denominated in U.S. dollars, the impact of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates was not material to our total consolidated net revenues.

Sales to the infectious disease testing market increased 19% to $14.7 million in the first quarter of 2020 from $12.3 million in the first quarter of 2019. This increase resulted from higher international sales of our OraQuick® HIV products, partially offset by lower domestic sales of our OraQuick® HIV products and lower world-wide sales of our OraQuick® HCV products.

Domestic OraQuick® HIV sales decreased 2% to $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was primarily the result of lower sales of our professional product due to price and fourth generation test competition partially offset by higher sales of our over-the-counter product as a result of a stocking order at a new retailer.  

International sales of our OraQuick® HIV tests increased 74% to $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This increase was largely due to higher sales of our OraQuick® HIV Self-Test in Africa.

Domestic OraQuick® HCV sales decreased 18% to $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2020 from $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2019 primarily due to a decline in public health funding as funds were redirected to COVID-19 testing and due to the closure of testing programs to comply with the national stay at-home orders associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

-23-


International OraQuick® HCV sales decreased 25% to $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2020 from $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2019 due to lower sales in Asia.

Risk Assessment Market

Sales to the risk assessment market increased 6% to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2019 due to increased pre-employment drug testing.

Cryosurgical Systems Market

In August 2019, we sold our cryosurgical systems line of business and as such have stopped recording revenues associated with that business since the third quarter of 2019.

Other revenues

Other revenues in the first quarter of 2020 decreased 74% to $128,000 from $484,000 of other revenues recorded in the first quarter of 2019. Revenue associated with funding of our research and development efforts declined to $104,000 in the first quarter of 2020 from $364,000 in the first quarter of 2019 as a result of the wind-down of our development efforts on our rapid Ebola test.  Other revenues in the first quarter of 2020 also included $24,000 in reimbursement of certain costs under our charitable support agreement with the Gates Foundation compared to $120,000 in the first quarter of 2019.

Sales of our genomics products increased 14% to $9.1 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $8.0 million in the first quarter of 2019, largely due to organic growth of existing customers and a shift from blood to saliva collection by customers using both sample types due to the inability to collect blood samples as a result of restrictions related to COVID-19.

Microbiome sales largely remained consistent at $1.6 million in the first quarters of 2020 and 2019.  

 

Laboratory services revenues increased 237% to $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $717,000 in the first quarter of 2019, due to the inclusion of revenues generated by Diversigen which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2019.  

Other revenues in the first quarter of 2020 decreased 55% to $582,000 from $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2019 largely as a result of lower royalty income under a litigation settlement agreement.

CONSOLIDATED OPERATING RESULTS

Consolidated gross profit percentage was 51% for the first quarter of 2020 compared to 60% for the first quarter of 2019. The decrease in gross profit percentage in the first quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a less favorable product mix as a result of higher sales of lower gross profit products and services, increased international freight costs, increased scrap and spoilage expense, and the decline in other revenues which contribute 100% to our gross profit percentage.

Consolidated operating loss for the first quarter of 2020 was $8.0 million, a $4.2 million increased loss from the $3.8 million of operating loss reported in the first quarter of 2019. Results in the first quarter of 2020 were negatively impacted by the lower gross profit percentage, higher legal fees, increased research and development expenses, and the incremental operating expenses added by the Diversigen acquisition which did not occur until the fourth quarter of 2019.

-24-


OPERATING LOSS BY SEGMENT

We evaluate performance of our operating segments based on revenue and operating income. Reportable segments have no inter-segment revenue and inter-segment expenses are eliminated in consolidation, including the fees associated with an intercompany service agreement between OSUR and DNAG.  

OSUR Segment

OSUR’s gross profit percentage was 43% in the first quarter of 2020 compared to 54% in the first quarter of 2019. This decrease is due to a less favorable product mix associated with the increased international HIV product sales and the absence of cryosurgical systems revenues due to the sale of our cryosurgical systems business in August 2019 which generated higher margins.  Gross profit percentage was also negatively impacted by increased international freight costs and higher scrap and spoilage expense.

Research and development expenses increased 28% to $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2020 from $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2019 largely due to increased staffing costs. Sales and marketing expenses of $4.6 million in the first quarter of 2020 were flat compared to the first quarter of 2019. General and administrative expenses increased 20% to $7.3 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2019 largely due to higher legal fees.

All of the above contributed to OSUR’s first quarter 2020 operating loss of $7.6 million, which included non-cash charges of $861,000 for depreciation and amortization and $1.1 million for stock-based compensation.

DNAG Segment

DNAG’s gross profit percentage was 61% in the first quarter of 2020 compared to 69% in the first quarter of 2019. This decrease is attributable to the decline in other revenues which contribute 100% to the gross profit percentage and a less favorable product mix as a result of higher sales of lower gross profit products and services.

Research and development expenses increased 31% to $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2020 from $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2019 due to higher staffing costs, higher lab supply and consulting costs in support of bioinformatics and new product initiatives, and the inclusion of research and development expense incurred by Diversigen. Sales and marketing expenses increased 2% to $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2020 from $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2019 largely due to expenses incurred by Diversigen not included in the first quarter of 2019, partially offset by a decrease in our reserve for uncollectible accounts. General and administrative expenses largely remained consistent at $2.9 million in both the first quarter of 2020 and 2019.

All of the above contributed to DNAG’s first quarter 2020 operating loss of $405,000, which included a non-cash charge of $1.1 million for the change in the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration, $1.3 million for depreciation and amortization, and $300,000 for stock-based compensation.

CONSOLIDATED INCOME TAXES

We continue to believe the full valuation allowance established in 2008 against OSUR’s total U.S. deferred tax asset is appropriate as the facts and circumstances necessitating the allowance have not changed. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, $9,000 of state income tax expense was recorded compared to $21,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, foreign tax expense of $703,000 was recorded compared to a foreign tax benefit of $50,000 recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Our cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities decreased to $176.4 million at March 31, 2020 from $189.8 million at December 31, 2019. Our working capital increased to $197.3 million at March 31, 2020 from $191.8 million at December 31, 2019.

During the first three months of 2020, we generated $2.5 million in cash from operating activities. Our net loss of $7.3 million included non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization expense of $2.2 million, stock-based compensation expense of $1.4 million, and a charge for the change in the estimated fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration of $1.1 million and other non-cash benefits of $249,000. Cash used in operating activities also includes a $496,000 contingent consideration payment which represents the excess of the total contingent

-25-


consideration payment made during the first quarter of 2020 over the fair value of the liability estimated at the time of acquisition. Sources of cash generated from our working capital accounts include an $8.6 million decrease in accounts receivable as a result of the collection of large outstanding balances, a $1.0 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets associated with lower tax payment made to the Canadian taxing authority, and a $780,000 increase in deferred revenue largely associated with a customer prepayment received for laboratory services. Offsetting these sources of cash were a decrease in accounts payable of $3.1 million due to the payment of vendor invoices that were outstanding at the end of 2019 and a decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $1.7 million largely due to payment of our 2019 management incentive bonuses.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $14.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, which reflects $55.8 million in proceeds from the maturities and redemptions of investments partially offset by $36.9 million used to purchase investments, $2.6 million used to acquire property and equipment, and $2.3 million used to purchase patent and product rights.

Net cash used in financing activities was $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, which largely resulted from $3.0 million used for payment of our contingent consideration obligation and $1.4 million used for the repurchase of common stock to satisfy withholding taxes related to the vesting of restricted shares awarded to our employees.

We expect current balances of cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities to be sufficient to fund our current and foreseeable operating and capital needs. Our cash requirements, however, may vary materially from those now planned due to many factors, including, but not limited to, the scope and timing of future strategic acquisitions, the progress of our research and development programs, the scope and results of clinical testing, the cost of any future litigation, the magnitude of capital expenditures, changes in existing and potential relationships with business partners, the timing and cost of obtaining regulatory approvals, the timing and cost of future stock purchases, the costs involved in obtaining and enforcing patents, proprietary rights and any necessary licenses, the cost and timing of expansion of sales and marketing activities, market acceptance of new products, competing technological and market developments, the impact of the current economic environment and other factors. In addition, $69.2 million or 39% of our $176.4 million in cash, cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities belongs to our Canadian subsidiary. Repatriation of such cash into the United States exceeding certain levels could have adverse tax consequences.

Summary of Contractual Obligations

A summary of our obligations to make future payments under contracts existing at December 31, 2019 is included in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, there were no significant changes to this information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our judgments and estimates, including those related to the bad debts, customer sales returns, inventories, intangible assets, income taxes, revenue recognition, performance-based compensation, contingencies and litigation. We base our judgments and estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

A more detailed review of our critical accounting policies is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC. During the first three months of 2020, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies.

Item 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We do not hold any amounts of derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments and, accordingly, we have no material derivative risk to report under this Item.

As of March 31, 2020, we did not have any foreign currency exchange contracts or purchase currency options to hedge local currency cash flows. Sales denominated in foreign currencies comprised 5.4% of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020. We do have foreign currency exchange risk related to our operating subsidiaries in Canada and in Belgium. The principal foreign currencies in which we conduct business are the Canadian dollar and the Euro. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and these foreign currencies could affect year-to-year comparability of operating results and cash flows. Our foreign subsidiaries had net assets, subject to translation, of $111.1 million in U.S. Dollars, which are included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020. A 10% unfavorable change in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar and Euro-to-U.S. dollar exchange rates would have decreased our comprehensive income by approximately $9.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Item 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of March 31, 2020. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including such officers, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2020 to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 was accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

From time to time, we are involved in certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In management’s opinion, based upon the advice of counsel, the outcomes of such actions are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our future financial position or results of operations.

 

On February 6, 2017, DNA Genotek, Inc. (“DNAG”) entered into a settlement and license agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) in order to settle certain patent infringement and breach of contract litigation against Ancestry.comDNA, LLC (“Ancestry”) and its contract manufacturer.  This litigation was related to a saliva DNA collection device sold by Ancestry that was similar to products sold by DNAG.  Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, DNAG and Ancestry agreed to certain procedures for considering whether future versions of Ancestry’s saliva DNA collection product are covered by the DNAG patents licensed to Ancestry (the “Licensed Patents”) and thus subject to ongoing royalties under  the Settlement Agreement.  We have been in a dispute with Ancestry regarding whether yet-to-be launched Ancestry products are covered by the Licensed Patents.  In March 2019, Ancestry filed a Dispute Notice and Request for Arbitration (the “Notice”) with an alternative dispute resolution services provider in order to initiate a binding arbitration proceeding pursuant to the Settlement Agreement.  DNAG denied the allegations contained in the Notice and asserted that the potential new Ancestry products are covered by the Licensed Patents and would be subject to ongoing royalties if such products are commercialized by Ancestry.  A panel of arbitrators was appointed (the “Panel”) and this arbitration proceeding was completed in early 2020.  In February 2020, the Panel issued a decision that found that the potential new Ancestry products do not infringe the DNAG patents asserted in the arbitration.  As a result, these new Ancestry products will not be subject to the royalties under the Settlement Agreement.  Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Panel’s decision is final and binding on the parties.

 

Item 1A.

RISK FACTORS

 

The risk factors set forth in this report update, and should be read together with, the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Economic Volatility and Disruption Could Adversely Affect Our Results of Operations, Cash Flow and Financial Condition or Those of Our Customers and Suppliers.

Global and U.S. markets and economies have experienced extreme volatility and disruption following the global outbreak of COVID-19 that began in December 2019. Many economists and major investment banks have expressed concern that the continued spread of the virus globally has led or will lead to a world-wide economic downturn. Volatile economic conditions may occur again or continue in the future. These conditions could adversely affect our financial performance and condition or those of our customers and suppliers. These circumstances could also adversely affect our access to liquidity needed to conduct or expand our business or conduct future acquisitions or make other discretionary investments. Many of our customers rely on public funding provided by federal, state and local governments, and this funding has been and may continue to be reduced or deferred as a result of economic conditions or other factors. These circumstances may adversely impact our customers and suppliers, which, in turn, could adversely affect their ability to purchase and/or distribute our products or supply us with necessary equipment, raw materials or components. Even with the improvement of economic conditions, it may take time for our customers and suppliers to establish new budgets and return to normal purchasing and shipping patterns. We cannot predict the reoccurrence of any economic slowdown or the strength or sustainability of an economic recovery.

Terrorist Attacks, Natural Disasters, Public Health Crises or Other Catastrophic Events Outside of Our Control May Adversely Affect Our Business.

Terrorist attacks, natural disasters, public health crises or other catastrophic events outside of our control, including pandemics, and subsequent governmental responses to these events, could cause economic instability. These actions could adversely affect economic conditions both within and outside the United States and reduce demand for our products.  For example, the COVID-19 outbreak has led to, and for an unknown period of time will continue to lead to, disruptions in local, regional, national and global markets and economies affected thereby, including the United States.  This outbreak has resulted in, and until fully resolved is likely to continue to result in, among other things: (i) restrictions on travel, government mandated social distancing measures, and the temporary closure of many corporate offices, retail stores, and manufacturing facilities and factories; (ii) significant disruption to the business of many companies, including our customers and suppliers, as well as layoffs of employees; (iii) reduction or termination by public health and other customers of infectious disease testing programs, including for HIV and HCV, and a reallocation of personnel and monetary resources from these programs to programs intended to address COVID-19; (iv) reduction or termination of clinical and research studies by academic and other entities that use our molecular collection products and laboratory services; and (v) rapidly evolving proposals and actions by state and federal governments to address the problems being experienced by markets, businesses and the economy in general, which may have unintended consequences or may not adequately address such problems.  These events have disrupted, and threaten to continue to disrupt, our normal operation, the operations of our customers and suppliers and eliminate, reduce or delay

-28-


our customers’ ability to purchase and use our products and our suppliers’ ability to provide raw materials and finished products.  Despite our efforts to manage and mitigate the impact of these events on us, it is impossible to predict the precise nature and consequences of these events, or of any political or policy decisions and regulatory changes occasioned by emerging events or uncertainty under applicable laws or regulations that impact us. It is clear that these types of events are impacting and will, for at least some time, continue to impact our operation and in many instances the impact will be adverse and may be material. Any potential impact to our results of operations will depend to a large extent on future developments and new information that could emerge regarding the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken by authorities and other entities to contain the spread or treat its impact, all of which are beyond our control. These potential impacts, while uncertain, could adversely affect our business and results of operation.

Various types of disasters, including earthquakes, fires, floods, acts of terrorism and pandemics, may also affect our manufacturing facilities and computer systems, and increase our cybersecurity risks. Although we have business interruption insurance, our facilities, including some pieces of manufacturing equipment and our computer systems, may be difficult to replace and could require substantial replacement lead-time. In the event our existing manufacturing facilities or computer systems are affected by man-made or natural disasters, including pandemics, we may have difficulty operating our business and may be unable to manufacture products for sale or meet customer demands or sales projections. If our manufacturing operations were curtailed or shut down entirely, it would seriously harm our business. Moreover, we may incur incremental costs following an unforeseen event which could adversely affect our results of operation.

The Use of Third Party Supply Sources For Critical Components of Our Products Could Adversely Affect Our Business.

We currently purchase certain critical components of our products from sole supply sources or other third-party suppliers. For example, the biological antigens and antibodies, nitrocellulose and certain other components required to make our OraQuick HIV, HCV and Ebola products are currently purchased from sole source suppliers. Our OraSure QuickFlu® test and the fully automated high-throughput drug assays sold with our Intercept i2® device are manufactured and supplied by sole source suppliers and the conjugates used in our MICROPLATE oral fluid drugs-of-abuse assays are obtained from third-party suppliers. We have contracted with a third party in Thailand for the assembly of OraQuick® HIV device and the OraQuick® HIV Self-Test in order to supply certain international markets. In addition, our subsidiary, DNAG, uses two third-party manufacturers to supply virtually all of its products, including its Oragene® line of collection kits. Many of the raw materials and components used in its products are also purchased from third parties, a critical one of which is obtained from a sole source supplier.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to contain the spread of the virus, could disrupt the normal operations of our third-party suppliers.  Our third-party suppliers may not have the personnel, raw materials, capacity, or capability to manufacture our products according to our schedule and specifications.  To the extent any such production and distribution interruption or closures occur and continue for an extended period of time, the impact on our supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. If our third-party suppliers are unable or unwilling to supply or manufacture a required component or product or if they make changes to a component, product or manufacturing process or do not supply materials meeting our specifications, we may need to find another source and/or manufacturer. This could require that we perform additional development work and it may be difficult to find such an alternate supply source in a reasonable time period or on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. We may also need to obtain FDA or other regulatory approvals for the use of an alternative component or for changes to our products or manufacturing process. Completing that development and obtaining such approvals could require significant time and expense and such approvals may not occur at all. The availability of critical components and products from sole supply sources or other third parties could also reduce our control over pricing, quality and timely delivery. These events could either disrupt our ability to manufacture and sell certain of our products into one or more markets or completely prevent us from doing so, and could increase our costs. Any such event could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flow and business.

Our Future Success Depends Upon Market Acceptance of Our Existing and Future Products and Service Offerings.

We believe successful new product and service introductions provide a significant competitive advantage because customers make an investment of time in selecting and learning to use a new product or service and are reluctant to switch thereafter. Our future success will depend, in part, on the market acceptance, and the timing of such acceptance, of new products such as our in-home antigen self-test for pan-SARS-coronavirus (“Coronavirus Self-Test”), laboratory-based pan-SARS-coronavirus antibody test (“Coronavirus Antibody Test”), OraQuick® HIV Self-Test , OraQuick® Ebola test and  OMNIgene®  GUT product offerings, and other new products or technologies that may be developed or acquired. In addition, our future revenues will depend on market acceptance of new uses for our saliva collection products, including for COVID-19 testing, and our new service offerings, such as the microbiome laboratory testing and analytical services we provide through CoreBioime and Diversigen.  To achieve market acceptance, we will likely be required to undertake clinical studies to validate the new uses for our products and substantial marketing efforts and spend significant funds to complete product development and clinical studies and inform potential customers and the public of the existence and perceived benefits of these products and services. In addition, governmental funding may be needed to help complete development, obtain required regulatory approvals and create market acceptance and expand the use of these products and services.

There may be limited evidence on which to evaluate the market reaction to products and services that may be developed and our marketing efforts for new products and services or products with new uses may not be successful. The market for microbiome products and services is in its early stages and its future development and acceptance by our customers is uncertain.  It is also possible that governmental funding may be limited for new products, such as our Coronavirus Self-Test and Coronavirus Antibody Test or the new sample collection and stabilization products being commercialized by DNAG. Also, we are still in the process of developing the Coronavirus Self-Test and Coronavirus Antibody Test and validating the use of existing products for COVID-19 testing, and it is uncertain whether we will be successful in our development and validation

-29-


efforts or whether these products will prove effective, receive applicable regulatory approvals and gain widespread acceptance in the marketplace. As such, there can be no assurance that any products or services will obtain significant market acceptance and fill the market need that is perceived to exist on a timely basis, or at all.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Employment Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of May 11, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), between Lisa A. Nibauer (“Employee”) and OraSure Technologies, Inc. (“OraSure” or the “Company”).  

 

WHEREAS, the parties wish to set forth the terms of their relationship and to enter into this Agreement and a confidentiality agreement of even date herewith (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made herein, intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.Services.

1.1Employment.  Subject to the terms hereof, the Company agrees to employ Employee as the Company’s Executive Vice President, Business Unit Leader, Infectious Disease (the “Position”), and Employee hereby accepts such employment in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Subject to the provisions of Section 6 hereof, Employee’s position and duties may be changed and Employee’s primary place of work may be relocated from time to time during the Term (as defined below) of this Agreement, and such changes shall not be considered a material change in circumstance that would invalidate the provisions of this Agreement which, in any event, shall survive such change or changes.  

1.3Outside Activities.  Employee shall obtain the consent of the Board of Directors or the CEO before she engages, either directly or indirectly, in any other professional or business activities that may require an appreciable portion of Employee’s time.

1.4Direction of Services.  Employee shall at all times report directly to, and discharge her duties in consultation with and under the supervision and direction of, the CEO.

2.Term.  The initial term of this Agreement shall begin as of the Employment Date and end on the third anniversary of the Employment Date, unless Employee’s employment is sooner terminated in accordance with Section 6 below (the “Initial Term”).  Thereafter, this Agreement shall automatically renew and Employee’s employment shall continue for successive one-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term” and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”) unless the Company gives Employee written notice of the Company’s intent not to renew this Agreement

at least 90 days before the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, or Employee’s employment under this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 6 below.

3.Compensation and Expenses.

3.1Salary.  As compensation for services under this Agreement, the Company shall pay to Employee a base salary of $410,000 per annum.  Such salary will be subject to review by the Board of Directors on an annual basis and may be increased from time to time in the discretion of the Board of Directors.  Any reduction shall be subject to the provisions of Good Reason (as defined below) and Section 6 below.  Payment shall be made in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices as in effect from time to time, less all amounts required by law or authorized by Employee to be withheld or deducted.  For all purposes under this Agreement, the term “salary” shall mean the regular annual base salary of Employee payable under this Section 3.1, as increased.

3.2Bonus.  In addition to the salary described in Section 3.1 above, Employee shall be entitled to participate in the incentive plan established by OraSure each year for the payment of cash bonuses to senior executive officers of OraSure and its subsidiaries (each, a “Bonus Plan”), on such terms as may be approved by the Board of Directors or its compensation committee (the “Compensation Committee”) in its sole discretion each Bonus Plan.  With respect to each Bonus Plan, (a) Employee shall have a target bonus amount as determined by the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee which is at least equal to 40% of Employee’s salary and (b) cash bonuses payable to Employee shall be determined in the same manner as the cash bonuses paid to other senior executive officers of the Company under the applicable Bonus Plan with respect to the same time period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee’s bonus for performance during 2020 shall not be less than $80.000.  

3.3Long-Term Incentive Awards.  Employee shall be entitled to participate in the Long-Term Incentive Policy or comparable long-term incentive equity policy or plan that may from time to time be adopted by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion (an “LTIP”) and, with respect to each LTIP, (a) Employee shall be entitled to annual awards ranging from between 95% to 155% of her salary (with the target set at a minimum of 125% of her salary), as determined by the Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee and (b) equity awards or other benefits provided to Employee under any such LTIP shall be determined in the same manner as the awards or other benefits provided under such policies or plans to other senior executive officers of the Company with respect to the same time period.  All equity awards granted to Employee on or after the Effective Date, including the award provided for in Section 4, shall, to the extent then unvested, immediately vest (i) in the event of a Change of Control (as defined herein) or (ii) in the event Employee’s employment is terminated for Good Reason (as defined herein) pursuant to Section 6.4 or without Cause (as defined herein) pursuant to Section 6.5 during a Change of Control Period (as defined herein), and 50% of such awards shall, to the extent then unvested, immediately vest in the event Employee’s employment is terminated for death or Disability (as defined herein) pursuant to Section 6.1, Good Reason pursuant to Section 6.4 or without Cause pursuant to Section 6.5 during any period other than a Change of Control Period (as defined herein).

-2-

3.5Expenses.  The Company shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in carrying out her duties under this Agreement, subject to compliance with the Company’s reasonable policies relating to expense reimbursement. Expenses subject to reimbursement under this Section 3.5 shall include, but not be limited to, the cost of business-related travel, lodging and meals and the fees and expenses incurred by Employee to maintain her membership in professional associations and obtain continuing professional education reasonably required in connection with Employee’s performance of her duties under this Agreement. All reimbursements under this Section 3.5 will be made as soon as practicable after submission of any required documentation, in compliance with the Company’s reasonable policies relating to expense reimbursement.

3.6Fees.  From and after the Employment Date, all compensation earned by Employee, other than pursuant to this Agreement, as a result of services performed on behalf of the Company or as a result of or arising out of any work done by Employee in any way related to the scientific or business activities of the Company shall belong to the Company.  Employee shall pay or deliver such compensation to the Company promptly upon receipt.  For the purposes of this provision, “compensation” shall include, but is not limited to, all professional and nonprofessional fees, lecture fees, expert testimony fees, publishing fees, royalties, and any related income, earnings, or other things of value; and “scientific or business activities of the Company” shall include, but not be limited to, any project or projects in which the Company is involved and any subject matter that is directly or indirectly researched, tested, developed, promoted, or marketed by the Company.

In addition, Employee shall receive a sign-on bonus in the amount of $50,000, less applicable withholdings, which shall be paid within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date.

5.Confidentiality Agreement. Employee’s compliance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement is a material requirement of this Agreement.  Any breach of the Confidentiality Agreement that is materially detrimental to the Company and that, if capable of being cured, is not cured within 30 days of written notice thereof from the Company to Employee shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing in this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement shall prohibit the Employee from reporting

-3-


possible violations of law or a regulation to any governmental agency or entity or self-regulatory organization or making disclosures that are protected under law, including the whistleblower provisions of U.S. federal law or regulation; and (ii) in accordance with the U.S. Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Employee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any U.S. federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that:  (A) is made (i) in confidence to a U.S. federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

6.Termination.

6.1Termination Upon Death or Disability.  Employee’s employment under this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon Employee’s death or Disability.  The term “Disability” means Employee is (a) unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months; or (b) by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three (3) months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Company.

6.3Termination by the Company for Cause.

6.5Termination by the Company Without Cause.  The Company may terminate Employee’s employment under this Agreement without Cause by ninety (90) days’ written notice to Employee.  In the event the Company fails to renew this Agreement pursuant to Section 2, such failure shall be deemed to be a termination of Employee’s employment by the Company without Cause.

6.6Definitions.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change of Control Period” shall mean the period which begins sixty (60) days prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control and ends eighteen (18) months thereafter.

6.7Compensation Upon Termination.

6.7.1Termination Upon Death or Disability, by Employee (Other Than for Good Reason) or for Cause.  

-5-


In the event of a termination of Employee’s employment under Sections 6.1, 6.2 or 6.3, all salary and benefits shall cease on the date of termination, subject to the terms of any benefit plans then in force and applicable to Employee, and the Company shall have no further liability or obligation hereunder by reason of such termination, save and except as stated herein.  In the event of a termination of Employee’s employment under Sections 6.1, 6.2 or 6.3, Employee or her estate, as applicable, shall be paid all salary earned under Section 3.1 through the date of termination on the next regularly scheduled payroll date following the termination date (“Accrued Salary and Benefits”).  With respect to terminations under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 only, Employee or her estate, as applicable, shall receive, in addition to the foregoing, any bonus that has been approved by the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee prior to the date of termination but not yet paid (the “Accrued Bonus”), payable at the time that cash bonuses are or would otherwise be payable to other officers of the Company in respect of such year.  In the event of a termination under Sections 6.1 or 6.2 that occurs after June 30 in any given year, Employee or her estate, as applicable, shall receive a prorated portion of any cash bonus, at Employee’s target bonus percentage of base salary (subject to adjustment for bonus pool funding as determined by the Board of Directors), for the calendar year in which termination occurs (calculated based on the number of days in the calendar year that have passed prior to Employee’s termination), payable at the time that cash bonuses are or would otherwise be payable to other officers of the Company in respect of such year (the “Prorated Bonus”).  For greater certainty, in the event a termination under Sections 6.1 or 6.2 occurs on or before June 30 in any given year, Employee or her estate, as applicable, shall not receive a Prorated Bonus. The Accrued Salary and Benefits and Prorated Bonus (if any) are herein referred to collectively as the “Accrued Obligations.”  

6.7.2Termination Without Cause or Upon Good Reason.  In the event of a termination of Employee’s employment under Sections 6.4 or 6.5 of this Agreement, the following shall occur:

(i)shall receive the Accrued Obligations;

(ii)Employee shall receive:  (A) if such termination does not occur during a Change of Control Period, a lump sum payment (less applicable withholdings) equivalent to twelve (12) months of Employee’s annual salary; or (B) if such termination occurs during a Change of Control Period, a lump sum payment (less applicable withholdings) equivalent to twenty-four (24) months of the Employee’s annual salary;

(iii)Employee shall receive, as a component of severance, a cash bonus for the calendar year in which termination occurs equal to Employee’s target bonus for such year established pursuant to Section 3.2;

(iv)if Employee validly elects to receive continuation coverage under OraSure’s group health plan pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), and if such termination is for Good Reason pursuant to Section 6.4 or without Cause pursuant to Section 6.5 and does not occur during a Change of Control Period, the Company shall reimburse Employee for the applicable premium otherwise payable for COBRA continuation coverage for such coverage for a period of twelve (12) months after the date of termination, but only with respect to the portion of such premium that exceeds the monthly amount charged to active employees of the Company for the same coverage.  If such termination is for

-6-


Good Reason pursuant to Section 6.4 or without Cause pursuant to Section 6.5 and occurs during a Change of Control Period, the Company shall reimburse Employee for the applicable premium otherwise payable for COBRA continuation coverage for such coverage for a period for the shorter of either (x) twenty-four (24) months after the date of termination; or (y) the date Employee is no longer eligible for COBRA, but only with respect to the portion of such premium that exceeds the monthly amount charged to active employees of the Company for the same coverage; and

(v) Employee shall receive accelerated vesting as described in Section 3.3 herein.

The amounts payable under clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) are collectively referred to as “severance.” Subject to Section 6.8, all severance payments will be made (or commence) under this Section 6.7.2 on the 90th day after termination of employment hereunder.  As a condition to receipt of severance under this Section 6.7.2, within forty-five (45) days following termination of Employee’s employment, Employee shall sign, deliver and not revoke a release agreement, in the form and substance set forth in Exhibit B hereto, releasing all claims related to Employee’s employment, other than those that cannot be released as a matter of law. The severance shall be in lieu of and not in addition to any other severance arrangement maintained by the Company, and shall be offset by any monies Employee may owe to the Company. The Company’s obligation to pay the amounts stated in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Section 6.7.2 shall terminate if, during the period commencing on termination of employment and continuing until all severance payments have been made by the Company, Employee fails to comply with Sections 9 or 13 of this Agreement or with the Confidentiality Agreement.

6.7.3Parachute Payment.  In the event that (i) Employee becomes entitled to any payments or benefits hereunder or otherwise from the Company or any of its affiliates which constitute a “parachute payment” as defined in Code Section 280G (the “Total Payments”) and (ii) Employee is subject to an excise tax imposed under Code Section 4999 (the “Excise Tax”), then, if it would be economically advantageous for Employee, the Total Payments shall be reduced by an amount (including zero) that results in the receipt by Employee on an after tax basis (including the applicable U.S. federal, state and local income taxes, and the Excise Tax) of the greatest Total Payments, notwithstanding that some or all of the portion of the Total Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax.  If a reduction in Total Payments is required pursuant to the preceding sentence, the reduction will occur in the manner (the “Reduction Method”) that results in the greatest economic benefit for Employee.  If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the items so reduced will be reduced pro rata (the “Pro Rata Reduction Method”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Reduction Method or the Pro Rata Reduction Method would result in any portion of the Total Payments being subject to taxes pursuant to Code Section 409A (as defined below) that would not otherwise be subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A, then the Reduction Method and/or the Pro Rata Reduction Method, as the case may be, will be modified so as to avoid the imposition of taxes pursuant to Section 409A as follows: (A) as a first priority, the modification will preserve to the greatest extent possible, the greatest economic benefit for Employee as determined on an after-tax basis; (B) as a second priority, Payments that are contingent on future events (e.g., being terminated without Cause), will be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not contingent on future events; and (C) as a third priority, Payments that are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A will be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not deferred compensation within the meaning

-7-


of Section 409A. All calculations hereunder shall be performed by a nationally recognized independent accounting firm selected by the Company, with the full cost of such firm being borne by the Company.  Any determinations made by such firm shall be final and binding on Employee and the Company.  

 

6.8Section 409A.  This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code Section 409A”) (to the extent applicable) and the parties hereto agree to interpret, apply and administer this Agreement in the least restrictive manner necessary to comply therewith and without resulting in any increase in the amounts owed hereunder by the Company.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”) at the time of Employee’s termination of employment and any payment under this Section 6 would otherwise subject Employee to any tax, interest or penalty imposed under Code Section 409A (or any regulation promulgated thereunder) if the payment or benefit would commence as set forth in this Section 6, then the payment due under this Section 6 shall not be made (or commence) until the first day which is at least six (6) months after the date of the Employee’s termination of employment. All payments, which would have otherwise been required to be made to Employee over such six (6) month period, shall be paid to Employee in one lump sum payment as soon as administratively feasible after the first day which is at least six months after the date of Employee’s termination of employment with the Company.  For purposes of the application of Code Section 409A, each payment in a series of payments will be deemed a separate payment.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except to the extent any expense, reimbursement or in-kind benefit provided to the Employee does not constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, and its implementing regulations and guidance, (i) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided to the Employee during any calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided to the Employee in any other calendar year, (ii) the reimbursements for expenses for which the Employee is entitled to be reimbursed shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable expense is incurred and (iii) the right to payment or reimbursement or in-kind benefits hereunder may not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit.

7.Indemnification.  The Company agrees that if Employee is made a party (or is threatened to be made a party to) any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of her service (including past service) as an officer, director, employee, agent, or the like of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as an officer, director, employee, agent, or the like of another entity, including, without limitation, as a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan sponsored or established by the Company (any such service for a subsidiary, affiliate, joint venture or other entity in which the Company has an ownership or other financial interest, or as a fiduciary of any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company or any such other entity, shall be presumed to be at the request of the Company), whether or not the basis of such Proceeding is an act or omission alleged to have occurred while Employee was acting in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee, agent, or the like, then Employee shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by applicable law (including for all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred

-8-


by Employee), and such indemnification shall continue even if Employee has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, agent, or the like of the Company for any reason.

8.Insurance.  During the Term and for a period of six (6) years thereafter (regardless of the reason for the termination of Employee’s employment), the Company shall maintain suitable directors and officers insurance coverage for Employee in her respective roles and shall name Employee as an additional insured under such insurance policies, which policies shall be no less favorable to Employee than such insurance policies that cover OraSure’s directors during such time period.

9.Non-Competition.  In consideration of the severance payable hereunder, during the Term and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Employee agrees that, unless she obtains written agreement from the CEO or the Board of Directors, Employee covenants to not:

 

(a)recruit, solicit, or hire any executive or employee of the Company;

(b)induce or solicit any current or prospective customer, client, or supplier of the Company to cease being a customer, client or supplier or divert Company business

away from any customer, client, or supplier of the Company; or


(c)own, manage, control, work for, or provide services to any entity which competes with the Company in the market for rapid point-of-care, oral fluid diagnostic testing in the United States (the “Protected Business”);  provided, however, that this Section 9: (i) shall not prevent Employee from accepting a position with and working for any other entity which competes with the Company in the Protected Business, if such business is diversified, Employee is employed in a department, division or other unit of the business that is not engaged in the Protected Business and Employee does not, directly or indirectly, provide any assistance, services, advice, consultation or information with respect to rapid point-of-care, oral fluid diagnostic testing to the department, division or unit of the business engaged in the Business; and (ii) shall not prevent Employee from purchasing or owning less than five percent (5%) of the stock or other securities of any entity, provided that such stock or other securities are traded on any national or regional securities exchange or are actively traded in the over-the-counter market and registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The parties acknowledge that the non-competition agreement set forth in this Section 9 is intended to replace and supersede the non-competition provision set forth on page 1 of the Confidentiality Agreement executed contemporaneously herewith.

 

10.Remedies.  The respective rights and duties of the Company and Employee under this Agreement are in addition to, and not in lieu of, those rights and duties afforded to and imposed upon them by law or at equity.

 

11.Severability of Provisions.  The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any provision hereof is held invalid or unenforceable, it shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

12.Non-Waiver.  Failure by either party at any time to require performance of any provision of this Agreement shall not limit the right of the party failing to require performance to

20.Counterparts and Facsimiles.  This Agreement may be executed, including execution by facsimile signature, in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument.

RELEASE AGREEMENT

THIS RELEASE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into on this __ day of ___________, 20__, by and between Lisa A. Nibauer (“Executive”) and OraSure Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with each and every of its predecessors, successors (by merger or otherwise), parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions and related entities, directors, officers, Executives, attorneys and agents, whether present or former (collectively “OraSure”);

WHEREAS, Executive is entitled to receive severance under an Employment Agreement (“Employment Agreement”), dated ___________, 2020 between Employee and OraSure; and

WHEREAS, Executive agrees to execute this Agreement as consideration for such severance; and

WHEREAS, capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Employment Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows, in consideration of the mutual covenants and obligations contained herein, and intending to be legally held bound:

1.Employment Termination; Consideration.  Executive’s employment with OraSure shall terminate on ______________ (the “Termination Date”).  In consideration for Executive’s receipt of severance as provided in the foregoing Employment Agreement, Executive is willing to enter into this Agreement and provide the release set forth herein.

2.Executive’s Release.  Executive, on behalf of Executive, Executive’s heirs, executors, successors, assigns and representatives hereby unconditionally and irrevocably releases settles and forever discharges OraSure, together with each and every one of its predecessors, successors (by merger or otherwise), parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions and related entities, and all of their directors, officers, executives, attorneys and agents, and benefit plans (and the administrators, fiduciaries and agents of such plans), whether present or former (collectively the “Releasees”), from any and all suits, causes of action, complaints, obligations, demands, or claims of any kind, whether in law or in equity, direct or indirect, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected (hereinafter “Claims”), which the Executive ever had or now has arising out of or relating to any matter, thing or event occurring up to and including the date of this Agreement.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Claims released by Executive specifically include, but are not limited to:

a.any and all claims for wages and benefits including, without limitation, salary, stock, options, commissions, royalties, license fees, health and welfare benefits, separation pay, vacation pay, incentives, and bonuses (collectively “wage related claims”) other than wage related claims that cannot be released as a matter of law;

  

 


b.any and all claims for wrongful discharge, breach of contract (whether express or implied), or for breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing;

c.any and all claims for alleged employment discrimination on the basis of age, race, color, religion, sex, national origin, veteran status, disability and/or handicap and any and all other claims in violation of any federal, state or local statute, ordinance, judicial precedent or executive order, including but not limited to claims under the following statutes: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §2000e et seq., the Civil Rights Act of 1866, 42 U.S.C. §1981, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act,  29 U.S.C. §621 et seq., the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, 29 U.S.C. §626(f) (together with the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the “ADEA”), the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §12101 et seq., the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, or any comparable statute of any other state, country, or locality except as required by law, but excluding claims for vested benefits under OraSure’s pension plans;

d.any and all claims under any foreign, federal, state or local statute or law;

e.any and all claims in tort (including but not limited to any claims for misrepresentation, defamation, interference with contract or prospective economic advantage, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress, duress, loss of consortium, invasion of privacy and negligence);

f.any and all claims for attorneys’ fees and costs; and

g.any and all other claims for damages of any kind.

It is the intention of Executive and OraSure that the language relating to the description of released claims in this Section shall be accorded the broadest possible interpretation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this paragraph shall apply to, or shall release OraSure from, (i) any obligation of OraSure under this Agreement or the Employment Agreement; (ii) any accrued or vested benefit of Executive pursuant to any employee benefit plan of OraSure, including any benefit not yet due and payable; (iii) any obligation of OraSure under existing stock options, restricted stock or other stock awards; or (iv) any right to indemnification under this Agreement, the By-Laws or Certificate of Incorporation of OraSure or any subsidiary or any insurance policy maintained by the Company or any subsidiary or other entity.  Further, Executive does not waive any rights or claims under the ADEA or otherwise that may arise after the date of Executive’s execution of this Agreement.

3.Acknowledgment.  Executive understands that her release in Section 2 extends to all of the aforementioned Claims and potential Claims which arose on or before the date of this Agreement, whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, and that this constitutes an essential term of this Agreement.  Executive further understands and acknowledges the significance and consequence of this Agreement and of each specific release and waiver, and expressly consents that this Agreement shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected

-2-


claims, demands, obligations, and causes of action, if any, as well as those relating to any other claims, demands, obligations or causes of action hereinabove specified.  

4.Remedies.  All remedies at law or in equity shall be available to OraSure for the enforcement of this Agreement.  This Agreement may be pleaded as a full bar to the enforcement of any claim that Executive may assert against OraSure in violation of this Agreement.

5.Promise Not To Sue.

a.Executive agrees and covenants not to file, initiate, or join any lawsuit (individually, with others, or as part of a class), in any forum, pleading, raising, or asserting any claim(s) barred or released by this Agreement.  If Executive does so, and the action is found to be barred in whole or in part by this Agreement, Executive agrees to pay the attorneys’ fees and costs, or the proportions thereof, incurred by the applicable Releasees in defending against those claims that are found to be barred by this Agreement.  While this Agreement will serve to release any ADEA claims, the attorneys’ fees/cost shifting provision set forth in this paragraph will not apply to any claims challenging the validity of the release contained in this Agreement under the ADEA.

b.Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement or otherwise shall prohibit Executive from (a) reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity or self-regulatory organization (including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, Congress and any agency Inspector General), or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulations (it being understood that Executive does not need the prior authorization of OraSure to make any such reports or disclosures or to notify OraSure that Executive has made such reports or disclosures), or (b) providing truthful testimony or statements to the extent, but only to the extent, required by applicable law, rule, regulation, legal process or by any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative, regulatory, judicial or legislative body (including any committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction (provided, however, that in such event, except as set forth in the foregoing clause (a) above, Executive will give OraSure prompt written notice thereof prior to such disclosure so that OraSure may seek appropriate protection for such information). However, Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive shall not seek or accept and waives any rights to any relief obtained on Executive’s behalf in any proceeding by any government agency (including the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission), private party, class, or otherwise with respect to any claims covered by the release in Section 2 of this Agreement.

6.No Admissions.  Neither the execution of this Agreement by the Company, nor the terms hereof, constitute or should be construed to constitute any admission or evidence of any wrongdoing, liability or violation of any federal, state or local law or the common law on the part of the Company.  

7.Confidentiality.  To the extent not otherwise made public by OraSure and except as permitted by this Section, Executive shall not disclose or publicize the terms or fact of this Agreement, directly or indirectly, to any person or entity, except to Executive’s attorney and

-3-


spouse, provided that Executive’s attorney and spouse agree to keep the information confidential, and to others as required by law.  Executive is specifically prohibited from disclosing the facts or terms of this Agreement to any former or present executive of OraSure except as required by law. Executive further agrees that in the event Executive receives a subpoena, order, or other legal process seeking disclosure of the information referred to in this Agreement, within five (5) business days of such receipt then Executive shall immediately notify OraSure’s General Counsel of such subpoena, request or order and cooperate with OraSure in any efforts to oppose such disclosure.

8.Non-Disparagement.  Executive agrees not to disparage or encourage others to disparage OraSure, as well as any of the other Releasees, their products, missions or businesses or any of the Releasees’ officers, directors, attorneys, and employees, and Executive agrees not to initiate any contact with or respond to any inquiry by the press or other media regarding the Releasees.  For the purpose of this Agreement, "disparage" includes, without limitation, comments or statements to any person or entity, including but not limited to the press and/or media, employees, contractors, or advisors of OraSure or any entity with which OraSure has a business relationship, which would adversely affect in any manner (a) the conduct of the business of OraSure or any of the Releasees (including but not limited to any business plans or prospects) or (b) the reputation of OraSure, OraSure's officers, directors or any of the Releasees. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement precludes Executive from supplying truthful information to any governmental authority or in response to any lawful subpoena or other legal process.

9.Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, together with the terms of the Employment Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement, contain the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, supersede any prior agreements or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof, and shall be binding upon their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.  The Executive agrees that the obligations contained in this Agreement and the other agreements referenced herein are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any obligations Executive may have.

10.Severability.  If any term or provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms or provisions shall not be affected, and such term or provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable.

11.Advice of Counsel; Revocation Period.  Executive is hereby advised to seek the advice of counsel.  Executive acknowledges that she is acting of her own free will, that she has been afforded a reasonable time to read and review the terms of this Agreement, and that Executive is voluntarily entering into this Agreement with full knowledge and understanding of its provisions and effects. Executive understands and agrees that she is waiving rights or claims, including, but not limited to, possible claims under the ADEA, in exchange for consideration in addition to anything of value to which Executive is already entitled.  Executive agrees that this Agreement shall not be deemed void or avoidable by claims of duress, deception, mistake of fact, or otherwise.  Nor shall the principle of construction whereby all ambiguities are to be construed against the drafter be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.  There is absolutely no agreement or reservation that is not clearly expressed in this Agreement.  This Agreement should not be

-4-


construed for or against any party. Executive further acknowledges that she has been given at least twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement and that if Executive decides to execute this Agreement before the twenty-one (21) day period has expired, Executive does so voluntarily and waives the opportunity to use the full review period. Executive acknowledges and agrees that changes made to this Agreement, whether or not material, do not restart the aforementioned twenty-one (21) day period.  Executive also acknowledges that she has seven (7) days following her execution of this Agreement to revoke acceptance of this Agreement, with the Agreement not becoming effective until the revocation period has expired without Executive having revoked.  Executive acknowledges that to be effective any revocation must be in writing, signed by the Executive, and received by OraSure prior to the expiration of the revocation date.  If Executive chooses to revoke her acceptance of this Agreement, she should provide written notice to:

General Counsel

OraSure Technologies, Inc.

220 East First Street

Bethlehem, Pennsylvania 18015

 

12.Amendments.  Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be orally changed, waived, discharged, or terminated, and may be amended only by a written agreement between the parties hereto.

13.Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to the conflict of law principles of any jurisdiction.

14.Legally Binding.  The terms of this Agreement contained herein are contractual, and not a mere recital.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties, acknowledging that they are acting of their own free will, have caused the execution of this Agreement as of this day and year written below.
