    Business Performance and Highlights:

    Oncology
    The Myriad Genetics Oncology business provides hereditary cancer testing, including the MyRisk® hereditary cancer test for patients who have cancer. It also provides tumor profiling products such as the myChoice® CDx companion diagnostic test, the Prolaris® prostate cancer test, Precise™ Tumor molecular profile test and the EndoPredict® breast cancer prognostic test. The Oncology business delivered revenue of $76.6 million in the third quarter of 2023.

    • Third quarter hereditary cancer testing revenue and volumes in Oncology grew 21% and 15% year-over-year, respectively.
    • Prolaris continued to see healthy demand as third quarter testing revenue and volumes grew 18% and 9% year-over-year, respectively. UnitedHealthcare has recently issued a positive medical policy covering Prolaris in the biopsy setting for all risk groups. This policy will take effect on January 1, 2024.
    • Announced a collaboration with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) to study the use of minimal residual disease (MRD) testing in breast cancer. The research project will use Myriad Genetics' MRD testing platform, a tumor-informed high-definition assay that uses whole-genome sequencing to achieve high sensitivity and specificity for circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Myriad Genetics' MRD test was selected for its anticipated higher sensitivity and specificity than many other ctDNA offerings.
    • Integrated Absolute Risk Reduction (ARR) into the Prolaris Prostate Cancer Prognostic Test to help patients and providers make personalized treatment decisions regarding hormone therapy. Prolaris is the only biomarker test to quantify the benefits of adding androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to radiation therapy (RT)2.

    Women’s Health

    The Myriad Genetics Women’s Health business serves women of all ancestries by assessing their risk of cancer and offers prenatal testing solutions for those who are pregnant or planning a family. The Women’s Health business delivered revenue of $79.6 million in the third quarter of 2023.

    • Third quarter hereditary cancer testing volumes in Women's Health grew 22% year-over-year, driven by competitive account wins and increased adoption by providers of MyRisk for patients whose family history puts them at a higher risk for cancer.
    • Excluding contributions from the SneakPeek Early Gender DNA Test, prenatal testing volumes in the third quarter of 2023 grew 20% year-over-year.
    • In collaboration with Onsite Women’s Health, a leading national provider of breast health services, we announced the launch of a new breast cancer risk assessment program to help more women understand their breast cancer risk. This program combines diagnostic imaging and genetic risk assessment utilizing MyRisk with RiskScore® and patient education. The program is expected to enable affordable access to genetic testing and deliver personalized insights to better inform clinical decisions for millions of potential patients.
    • MyRisk Hereditary Cancer Test with RiskScore now incorporates breast density using Tyrer-Cuzick version 8 (TCv8) to provide patients and providers with a more comprehensive look at their five-year and remaining lifetime risk for breast cancer. MyRisk with RiskScore is the first breast cancer risk model that includes breast density, personal/family clinical history and a polygenic risk score (PRS) based on genetically determined ancestry.
    • As of October 2023, Myriad Genetics sold over 1 million SneakPeek Early Gender DNA Tests.

    Pharmacogenomics

    The Myriad Genetics Pharmacogenomics business consists of the GeneSight test that covers 64 medications commonly prescribed for depression, anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and other psychiatric conditions. GeneSight helps physicians understand how genetic alterations impact patient response to antidepressants and other drugs. In the pharmacogenomics category, the GeneSight test recorded revenue of $35.7 million in the third quarter of 2023.

    • In the third quarter, Myriad Genetics added approximately 4,000 clinicians who ordered GeneSight for the first time.
    • Enhanced GeneSight report will now include information on how a patient's smoking status may impact their body's metabolism of certain medications.
    • Presented positive preliminary results from Phase 1 of a multi-phase study designed to better understand GeneSight's ability to improve clinical outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. Based on data from over 20,000 patients in the Optum Labs Data Warehouse, in the first 180 days post GeneSight testing, total hospitalizations decreased by more than 25% and psychiatric hospitalizations decreased by more than 35%. Additional data and detail from this study is expected to be published in 2024.
    • Building on a 2020 meta-analysis of the clinical utility of the GeneSight test, which included four prospective, controlled studies and 1,556 unique patients, Myriad Genetics has incorporated additional published studies to further measure the utility of combinatorial pharmacogenomics testing for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). This updated meta-analysis continues to show that access to GeneSight improved MDD response and remission rates.

    Liquidity and Cash Flow
    In October 2023, Myriad Genetics exercised its option to increase the size of its asset-based credit facility (the “ABL Facility”) by $25 million to $115 million.

    Statement regarding use of non-GAAP financial measures
    In this press release, the company’s financial results and financial guidance are provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that presentation of operating results using non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the company’s core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures to establish budgets and to manage the company’s business. A reconciliation of the GAAP financial results to non-GAAP financial results is included in the schedules below and a description of the adjustments made to the GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the schedules.

    The company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Non-GAAP financial results are reported in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

    Following is a description of the adjustments made to GAAP financial measures:

    • Acquisition – amortization of intangible assets – represents recurring amortization charges resulting from the acquisition of intangible assets.
    • Goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges – impairment charges on long-lived assets and goodwill.
    • Equity compensation – non-cash equity-based compensation provided to Myriad Genetics employees and directors.
    • Transformation initiatives – transitory costs such as consulting and professional fees related to transformation initiatives, additional rent as a result of the build-out of the company's new laboratories in Salt Lake City, Utah and in South San Francisco, California, while maintaining its current laboratories in those locations, re-location costs of equipment to new laboratories, severance costs, and accelerated depreciation in connection with the company's decision to cease the use of its former corporate headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah. With respect to the adjusted free cash flow reconciliation, the cash flow effect of transformation initiatives excludes non-cash items such as accelerated depreciation.
    • Legal charges, net of insurance reimbursement – one-time legal expenses, net of insurance reimbursement. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, legal charges, net of insurance reimbursement primarily relates to a $34.0 million settlement of the Ravgen litigation, of which $21.25 million of payment is contingent upon certain future events. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, legal charges, net of insurance reimbursement primarily includes the amounts related to the settlement of the Ravgen litigation and a $77.5 million settlement of the securities class action lawsuit. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, legal charges, net of insurance reimbursement includes the gain from reimbursement of prior legal expenses and settlements. With respect to the adjusted free cash flow reconciliation, the cash flow effect includes cash paid for settlements in the related period.
    • Other adjustments – other one-time non-recurring expenses including consulting and professional fees related to prior year acquisitions, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration related to acquisitions from prior years and reclassifications of cumulative translation adjustments to income upon liquidation of an investment in a foreign entity.
    • Tax adjustments – tax expense/(benefit) due to non-GAAP adjustments, differences between stock compensation recorded for book purposes as compared to the allowable tax deductions, and valuation allowance recognized against federal and state deferred tax assets in the United States. A valuation allowance of $37.2 million was not recognized for non-GAAP purposes given the company's historical and forecasted positive earnings performance.
