Item 8.01 – Other Events.

US Defense Logistics Agency Contract Award

On November 22, 2022, the US Defense Logistics Agency awarded OraSure Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) a second procurement contract for the Company’s InteliSwab® COVID-19 Rapid Test for over-the-counter use. Under the terms of the award, the contract estimate is 18 million InteliSwab® COVID-19 Rapid Tests; with a maximum award of 36 million tests and a guaranteed minimum award of 3.6 million tests. The contract will run from November 2022 through November 2023. Due to lack of visibility of order timing, the Company is not updating its financial guidance for the fourth quarter of 2022 at this time. Pricing for the InteliSwab® COVID-19 Rapid Test, under this contract, is below what was previously awarded by the federal government.
