Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Significant Accounting Policies Significant Accounting Policies
Accounting Principles and Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Each of the subsidiaries operates as a sales and support office. The functional currency of each subsidiary is the U.S. dollar. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the estimation of stand-alone selling prices for its products and services, the estimation of the valuation of inventory, the estimates used in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions, and estimates used in certain of the inputs and calculations associated with stock-based compensation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with purchased maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalents consist principally of funds maintained in depository accounts. The Company invests its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions; at times these investments exceed federally insured limits. Restricted cash consists of customer deposits which are secured through letters of credit until performance obligations have been met.
Investments
The Company classifies its debt securities as available-for-sale, which are reported at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity. Realized gains, realized losses and allowance for estimated credit losses are included in other expense, net. The cost of investments for purposes of computing realized and unrealized gains and losses is based on the specific identification method. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are included in other expense, net. Interest and dividends earned on all securities are included in other expense, net. Investments in debt securities with maturities of less than one year, or where management’s intent is to use the investments to fund current operations, or to make them available for current operations, are classified as short-term investments.
Investments are presented net of an allowance for expected credit losses that are remeasured each period and any impairment recognized as an expense. The Company has considered all information and factors and noted no indicators that a credit loss exists as of December 31, 2022. The Company has not experienced any significant investment credit losses to date. Accrued interest receivable is included in prepaid and other current assets and was $0.9 million and $0.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable are stated net of an allowance for credit losses. The Company uses available information over the life of the receivables including analysis of past credit losses, recoveries of past credit losses, management’s expectations of future economic positions, as well as market conditions and other extenuating factors to support the allowance estimate.
Concentration of Credit Risks
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash is invested in accordance with the Company’s investment policy, which includes guidelines intended to minimize and diversify credit risk. Most of the Company’s investments are not federally insured. The Company has credit risk related to the collectability of its accounts receivable. The Company performs initial and ongoing evaluations of its customers’ credit history or financial position and generally extends credit on account without collateral. The Company has not experienced any significant credit losses to date.
The Company had no customers that represented more than 10% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company had no customers that represented more than 10% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company had no customers that represented more than 10% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
The Company is also subject to supply chain risks related to the outsourcing of the manufacturing and production of its instruments to sole suppliers. Although there are a limited number of manufacturers for instruments of this type, the Company believes that other suppliers could provide similar products on comparable terms. Similarly, the Company sources certain raw materials used in the manufacture of consumables from certain sole suppliers. A change in suppliers, however, could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect operating results.
Fair value of financial instruments
The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Investments that are classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value. The fair value for investment securities held and for convertible senior notes are determined using quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency.
Inventory
Inventory consists of finished goods, raw materials, including certain intermediate manufactured items, and certain component parts to be used in manufacturing or servicing the Company’s products. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using a standard cost system, whereby the standard costs are updated periodically to reflect current costs and market represents the lower of cost or market (replacement cost or estimated net realizable value). The Company’s policy is to establish inventory reserves when conditions exist that suggest that inventory may be in excess of anticipated demand, obsolete, slow moving or impaired. In the event that the Company identifies these conditions exist in its inventory, its carrying value is reduced to its net realizable value. Inventory reserves were $7.3 million and $6.5 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The Company outsources the manufacturing of its instruments to third-party contract manufacturers who manufacture them to certain specifications and source certain raw materials from sole source providers. Major delays in shipments, inferior quality, insufficient quantity or any combination of these or other factors may harm the Company’s business and results of operations. In addition, the inability of one or more of these suppliers to provide the Company with an adequate supply of its products or raw materials or the loss of one or more of these suppliers may cause a delay in the Company’s ability to fulfill orders while it obtains a replacement supplier and may harm the Company’s business and results of operations.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for additions are capitalized and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Gains and losses from the disposal of property and equipment are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of disposition.

Capitalized Internal-Use Software Costs
The Company capitalizes certain development costs incurred in connection with software development for internal-use software platforms used in operations. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once software has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. The Company also capitalizes costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality. Capitalized internal-use software development costs are included in property and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software platforms and are included in depreciation and amortization expense within operating expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized capitalized internal-use software development costs were $11.8 million and $4.0 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amortization of capitalized internal-use software costs was $0.3 million for the year ending December 31, 2022.
Capitalized costs associated with the implementation of hosted third-party cloud computing arrangements are recorded as part of current and long-term other assets. Maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the related hosting arrangement. Costs are recorded within the consolidated statements of operations based on the functional use of the software. Unamortized capitalized software implementation costs were $1.9 million and $3.2 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amortization and write-down of capitalized software implementation costs of hosted third-party cloud computing arrangements was $1.3 million and $0.3 million for the years ending December 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of a contract. The Company’s leasing portfolio is comprised of operating and finance leases primarily for general office, manufacturing, and research and development purposes. Operating and finance lease liabilities and the corresponding right-of-use assets are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Operating lease right-of-use assets are reduced by lease incentives included in the agreement. As the existing leases do not contain an implicit interest rate, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company includes options to extend the lease in the lease liability and right-of-use asset when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected, as an accounting policy election, to use the short-term lease recognition exemption on all classes of assets. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and the Company recognizes lease payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease office agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For lease equipment agreements, the Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material variable lease payments, material residual value guarantees or, any material restrictive covenants.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the anticipated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets are less than the asset’s carrying values. The Company has not experienced material impairment losses on its long-lived assets during the periods presented.
Convertible Senior Notes
The Company adopted “ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”) effective January 1, 2021. The Company uses the if-converted method for purposes of calculating dilutive earnings per share, if the Convertible Notes are dilutive during the period. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company incurred certain financing costs associated directly with the issuance of the Convertible Notes. These issuance costs were deferred and are amortized to
interest expense over five years using the effective interest method. See Note 10. Long-term Debt, Net for additional information regarding the Convertible Senior Notes.
Segments
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer, who manages the operations and evaluates the financial performance on a total Company basis. The Company’s principal operations and decision-making functions are located at its corporate headquarters in the United States and the Company operates as a single operating and reporting segment.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those products and services. This process involves identifying the contract with a customer, determining the performance obligations in the contract, determining the contract price, allocating the contract price to the distinct performance obligations in the contract and recognizing revenue when the performance obligations have been satisfied. A performance obligation is considered distinct from other obligations in a contract when it provides a benefit to the customer either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer and is separately identified in the contract. Performance obligations are considered satisfied once the Company has transferred control of a product or service to the customer, meaning the customer has the ability to use and obtain the benefit of the product or service. The Company recognizes revenue for satisfied performance obligations only when there are no uncertainties regarding payment terms or transfer of control.
The Company has historically generated the majority of its revenue from sales of its proprietary GeoMx DSP system and nCounter Analysis System, and related consumables. Services consist of instrument service contracts for maintenance, repair and other support related to customer owned instruments, and also certain service fees for assay processing and data analysis and reporting.
Revenue from instruments and consumables is generally recognized upon shipment to the end customer, which is when control of the product has been transferred to the customer. Performance obligations related to instrument sales are reviewed on a contract-by-contract basis, as individual contract terms may vary and revenue is recognized as performance obligations are satisfied. Performance obligations for consumable products are generally completed upon shipment to the customer. While the Company typically completes installation and training of its customers with field-based service personnel, these services can also be provided by distribution partners and other third parties.
Instrument service contracts are sold with contract terms ranging from 12-36 months and cover periods after the end of the initial 12-month warranty. These contracts include services to maintain performance within the Company’s designed specifications and allow the customer to receive certain preventative maintenance service procedures during the contract term. Revenue from services to maintain designed specifications is considered a stand-ready obligation and recognized evenly over the contract term and service revenue related to preventative maintenance of instruments is recognized when the procedure is completed. Revenue from service fees for assay processing is recognized upon the rendering of the related performance obligation which is typically the delivery of data and analysis of the samples that have been processed.
For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract price in proportion to each performance obligation’s relative stand-alone selling price. The Company frequently sells bundles of systems and consumables and, in such instances, uses its best estimate of selling price for its products based on historical sales or similar products. For service, the best estimate of selling price is based on historical stand-alone sales, as stand-alone sales data for services are more readily available. The Company reviews its stand-alone prices at least annually or more frequently if facts and circumstances significantly change.
The Company generally recognizes expense related to the acquisition of contracts, such as sales commissions, at the time of revenue recognition, which is generally in the same period products are sold, and in the case of services, revenue is recognized as services are rendered or over the period of time covered by the service contract. The Company records commission expenses within selling, general and administrative expenses.
Revenues from sales to customers through distributors are recognized consistent with the policies and practices for direct sales to customers, as described above.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of product revenue consists primarily of costs incurred in the production process, including costs of purchasing instruments from third-party contract manufacturers, consumable component materials and assembly labor and overhead, installation, and packaging and delivery costs. In addition, cost of product revenue includes royalty costs for licensed technologies included in the Company’s products, provisions for slow-moving and obsolete inventory and stock-based compensation expense. Cost of product revenue for instruments and consumables is recognized in the period the related revenue is recognized. Shipping and handling costs incurred for product shipments are included in cost of product revenue in the consolidated statements of operations.
Cost of service revenue consists primarily of field service technicians and the cost of providing repair and maintenance services including parts used in performing those services for instruments covered under warranty and service contracts. In addition, cost of service revenue includes lab personnel labor and overhead, stock-based compensation and materials used in performing data analysis services. Cost of service revenue is recognized in the period the services are performed.
Reserve for Product Warranties
The Company generally provides a one-year warranty on both its nCounter Analysis Systems and GeoMx DSP instruments, and establishes a reserve for future warranty costs based on historical product failure rates and actual warranty costs incurred. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of service revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. Warranty reserves were $1.0 million and $1.2 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses, consisting primarily of salaries and benefits, stock-based compensation expense, occupancy costs, laboratory supplies, contracted services, and consulting fees are expensed as incurred.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling expenses consist primarily of personnel related costs for sales and marketing, contracted services, and service fees and are expensed as the related costs are incurred. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in sales and marketing expenses. Advertising costs totaled approximately $9.3 million, $4.8 million and $3.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel related costs for the Company’s finance, human resources, business development, legal, information technology and general management, as well as professional fees for legal, accounting and other consulting services. General and administrative expenses are expensed as they are incurred.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, monetary balance sheet accounts are remeasured using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet dates and non-monetary items are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Expenses are generally remeasured at the average exchange rates for the period. Foreign currency remeasurement and transaction gains and losses are included in interest and other income (expense), net and were not material for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the tax rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company determines whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the tax amount recognized in the financial statements is reduced by the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the fair value method. Stock-based compensation costs related to restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”) which are granted by the Company are calculated using the grant-date fair value using the intrinsic method and for stock options granted in prior years, stock-based compensation was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized based on the number of awards ultimately expected to vest, using actual forfeitures when incurred. The Company uses the
straight-line attribution method over the vesting period for recognizing compensation expense for awards with a service condition. For awards with service and performance conditions, the accelerated recognition method is used over the graded vesting schedules for the awards.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Company guarantees and/or indemnifies other parties, including vendors, lessors and parties to transactions with the Company, with respect to certain matters. The Company has agreed to hold the other parties harmless against losses arising from breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount the Company could be required to pay under these indemnification agreements, since the Company has not had any prior indemnification claims, and each claim would be based upon the unique facts and circumstances of the claim and the particular provisions of each agreement. In the opinion of management, any such claims would not be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. The Company did not have any related liabilities recorded at December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss includes certain changes in equity that are excluded from net loss. Specifically, unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities are included in comprehensive (income) loss.

The Company invests in securities that are rated investment grade or better. The unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities as of December 31, 2022 were caused primarily by interest rate increases.
The Company reviews the individual securities in its portfolio for impairment when events indicate the fair value of the investments may be below the carrying value. The Company reviews the individual securities in its portfolio for indications that unrealized losses are credit related and require an allowance to be recorded at the present value of the future expected cash flows. The Company determined unrealized losses were not for credit losses and so did not record an allowance related to its available-for-sale debt investments for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company did not record any impairment charges related to its available-for-sale debt investments for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
The Company establishes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a financial liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy is used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to their relatively short-term maturities. The recorded amount of the Company’s long-term debt can be determined based on the estimated or actual bid prices of the Convertible Senior Notes in an over-the-counter market, which are classified as a Level 2 financial instrument.
The Company’s investments by level within the fair value hierarchy were as follows (in thousands):

Leases [Abstract]  
Leases LeasesThe Company is obligated to make future minimum payments under five primary operating leases which approximate 162,322 square feet of space used for manufacturing, research and development and general operations primarily in the greater Seattle area. The operating leases have terms that expire from 2026 to 2032 and include renewal options to extend the lease term at the then current fair market rental for each of the lease agreements. None of the options to extend the rental term of existing leases were considered reasonably certain as of December 31, 2022. The Company’s operating leases contain rent abatement periods, scheduled rent increases and provide for tenant improvement allowances. In addition, the Company enters into finance lease right-of-use assets included in other assets and lease liabilities included in deferred revenues and other liabilities primarily for equipment used in its operations. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material variable lease payments, material residual value guarantees, or any material restrictive covenants.

Convertible Senior Notes
In March 2020, the Company issued $230.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2.625% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (“Convertible Notes”) in a private offering. The Convertible Notes are governed by an indenture dated March 9, 2020 between the Company and U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee.
The Company received net proceeds from the offering of $222.6 million. The Company used $88.6 million to repay in full all outstanding amounts borrowed, accrued interest and fees owed in connection with the termination of the Company’s amended and restated term loan agreement (“2018 Term Loan”) with Capital Royalty Group, and the fees owed in connection with the termination of the Company’s revolving credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank.
The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.625% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1, beginning on September 1, 2020. The Convertible Notes may bear additional interest under specified circumstances relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its reporting obligations under, or if the Convertible Notes are not freely tradeable as required by, the indenture governing the Convertible Notes. Upon conversion, the Convertible Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company’s election.
The Convertible Notes are general unsecured senior obligations and will mature on March 1, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and during the periods described below. The initial conversion rate for the Convertible Notes is 20.9161 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $47.81 per share). The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that may occur prior to the maturity date or if the Company issues a notice of redemption, the Company will increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its Convertible Notes in connection with such corporate event or in connection with such redemption, as the case may be, in certain circumstances.
Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 1, 2024, the Convertible Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2020 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business-day period after any five consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes for each trading day of such period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) if the Company calls any or all of the Convertible Notes for redemption, the Convertible Notes called for redemption (or, in the case of a partial redemption, if the Company makes an election to redeem all Convertible Notes, irrespective of whether they are called for redemption, to be convertible, all Convertible Notes) may be submitted for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date as set forth in the related redemption
notice; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after December 1, 2024, until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders of the Convertible Notes may convert all or any portion of their Convertible Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.
The Company may not redeem the Convertible Notes prior to March 5, 2023, and no sinking fund is provided for the Convertible Notes. On or after March 5, 2023, the Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Convertible Notes, at its option, if the last reported sale price of the common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading-day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides a notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.
Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes) prior to the maturity date, subject to certain conditions, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the Convertible Notes in increments of $1,000 for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
The Convertible Notes do not contain any financial or operating covenants or any restrictions on the issuance of other indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by the Company. The Convertible Notes indenture contains customary events of default, including that upon certain events of default, 100% of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Convertible Notes will automatically become due and payable. Debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over five years, the contractual term of the Convertible Notes, with an effective interest rate of 3.3%.
The Company monitors the provision of the Convertible Notes that allow for certain conversion rights at each quarterly reporting date in order to determine whether the Convertible Notes are convertible or subject to an event triggering potential redemption during the prescribed measurement periods. As of the date of this report, none of the outstanding convertible notes had been redeemed by the Company. Based on the closing price of our common stock of $7.97 on the last trading day of the year, the if-converted values of the Convertible Notes did not exceed the outstanding principal balance as of December 31, 2022.
All future principal payments related to the Convertible Notes are due in March 2025. The outstanding balance of the Company’s Convertible Notes consisted of the following at December 31 (in thousands):

Term Loan Agreement
In October 2018, the Company entered into an amended and restated term loan agreement with Capital Royalty Group (the “2018 Term Loan”), under which it could borrow up to $100.0 million, which was due and payable in September 2024. The Company borrowed a total of $80.0 million under the 2018 Term Loan. In March 2020, the Company terminated the 2018 Term Loan agreement. The Company used $88.6 million of the proceeds from the Convertible Notes to repay in full all outstanding principle, interest and fees associated with termination of the loan. The termination was accounted for as debt extinguishment and the Company recorded a charge of $6.6 million associated with the elimination of previously deferred financing costs, and for fees and penalties incurred upon termination of the 2018 Term Loan and other costs. These costs have been included as a Loss on extinguishment of debt and termination of revolving loan facility in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
2018 Revolving Loan Facility
In January 2018, the Company entered into a $15.0 million secured revolving loan facility, with availability subject to a borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable. In November 2018, the Company entered into an amended and restated loan and security agreement to increase the borrowing capacity under the facility to $20.0 million, amend the borrowing base to include finished goods inventory, and extend the final maturity under the facility to November 2021.
In March 2020, the Company terminated the revolving loan facility and paid termination fees of $0.5 million. There were no amounts outstanding under the revolving loan facility at the time of termination. These costs have been included as a Loss on extinguishment of debt and termination of revolving loan facility in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
Total interest expense for the Company’s long-term debt was $7.5 million, $7.5 million and $15.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Public Offerings
In October 2020, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 5,750,000 shares of its common stock, including the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase 750,000 additional shares of common stock. The Company’s total gross proceeds were $230.0 million. After underwriter’s commissions and other expenses of the offering, the Company’s aggregate net proceeds were $215.8 million.
Common Stock
Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. The holders of common stock are also entitled to receive dividends whenever funds are legally available and when declared by the board of directors, subject to the prior rights of holders of other classes of stock outstanding.
Preferred Stock
Pursuant to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation filed by the Company immediately prior to the completion of its initial public offering, the Company’s board of directors is authorized to issue up to 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof. These rights, preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing change in the Company’s control or other corporate action. As of December 31, 2022, no shares of preferred stock were issued or outstanding, and the board of directors has not authorized or designated any rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions for any class of preferred stock.
Warrants
Prior to the Company’s initial public offering, warrants to purchase preferred stock were issued related to certain financing transactions. All preferred stock warrants were converted into warrants to purchase common stock upon the effectiveness of the initial public offering. In addition, the Company has issued common stock warrants to third parties in accordance with the provisions of certain debt and collaboration agreements. As of December 31, 2022, there were 470,510 common stock warrants outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $24.70 per share and expiration dates in 2025.

Equity Plans
The Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, 2018 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan, and the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plans”) authorize the grant of stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and other equity awards to employees, directors and consultants. As of December 31, 2022, there were 15,057,772 shares authorized under the Plans. The Company has also granted RSUs that include service or service and certain performance conditions, or performance stock units (“PSUs”). RSUs generally vest over service periods of 1-3 years at which time award recipients receive shares of common stock equivalent to the originally awarded number of RSUs. In the case of PSUs, the number of PSUs that vest will be contingent on satisfying the service period and also based on achievement of all or part of the required performance obligations. All stock
options granted have a ten-year term and generally vest and become exercisable over four years of continued employment or service as defined in each option agreement.

The grant-date fair value of the RSUs and PSUs is determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of vested RSUs and PSUs was $18.6 million, $11.7 million and $7.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The intrinsic value of vested RSUs and PSUs was $20.1 million, $44.5 million and $12.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
During 2021 and 2020, the Company modified certain performance conditions of its PSUs for approximately 10 employees in each year which were originally granted in 2020 and 2019. These stock award modifications resulted in incremental stock-based compensation expense of $3.0 million, and $4.7 million for 2021 and 2020, respectively, recognized from the date of the modification over the remaining vesting period of the awards, adjusted for performance conditions and forfeitures.

Total stock-based compensation expense$23,699 $28,863 $18,490 
As of December 31, 2022, total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to non-vested options and RSUs was $36.7 million for awards with a service component and $0.1 million for awards with a service and performance component. This cost will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the weighted-average remaining service period of approximately 2.0 years, for stock awards with a service component, and less than one year for stock awards with a service and performance component. The Company utilizes newly issued shares to satisfy option exercises. No tax benefit was recognized related to stock-based compensation cost since the Company has not reported taxable income to date and has established a full valuation allowance to offset all of the potential tax benefits associated with its deferred tax assets.
Valuation assumptions
The Company grants RSUs to employees, directors and consultants and PSUs to employees and values these awards based on the grant date fair value, using the closing stock price of the Company’s shares on the date of the grant. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized based on awards ultimately expected to vest using actual forfeitures when incurred. The percentage achievement and vesting of PSU awards are contingent upon the achievement of predetermined tiered revenue performance goals. The Company assesses the probability of the awards expected to vest, based on the performance goals, and if probable, records compensation expense over the estimated service period. Updates to the expected probability are recorded cumulatively and remaining compensation expense, if any, is recognized over the remaining estimated service period.
Prior to January 1, 2021, the company granted stock options to employees, directors and consultants. The fair value of each employee stock option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
2020
Risk-free interest rates
0.54% — 1.69%
Expected term (years)
6.08 — 6.08
Expected dividend yield—%
Expected volatility
53.0% — 59.6%
The risk-free interest rates are based on the implied yield currently available in U.S. Treasury securities at maturity with an equivalent term. For purposes of determining the expected term of the awards in the absence of sufficient historical data relating to stock-option exercises, the Company applies a simplified approach in which the expected term of an award is presumed to be the mid-point between the vesting date and the expiration date of the award. The Company has not declared or paid any dividends and does not currently expect to do so in the foreseeable future. Expected volatility is based on the historical cumulative volatility of the Company’s stock price.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Company’s 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) provides eligible employees with an opportunity to purchase common stock from the Company and to pay for their purchases through payroll deductions. The ESPP has overlapping offering periods of approximately 12 months in length. The offering periods generally start with the first trading day on or after March 1 and September 1 of each year and end on the first trading day on or after March 1 and September 1 of the following year, approximately 12 months later. Within each offering period, shares are purchased each six months on an exercise date.
An employee electing to participate in the ESPP (a “participant”) will be granted an option at the start of the offering period to purchase shares with contributions in any whole percentage ranging from 0% to 10% (or greater or lesser percentages or dollar amounts that the administrator determines) of the participant’s eligible compensation. The participant’s contributions will be accumulated and then used to purchase the Company’s shares on each exercise date. The purchase price on the exercise date will be 85% of the fair market value of the lesser of the Company’s share price on either the first trading day of the offering period or on the exercise date.
During 2022, 2021 and 2020, shares issued under the ESPP were 150,341, 64,809 and 89,477, respectively. The Company recorded share-based compensation expense for shares issued from the ESPP of $2.2 million, $1.3 million and $0.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. A total of 2,204,647 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance under the ESPP, of which 883,793 shares were available for issuance as of December 31, 2022.

At December 31, 2022, for income tax return purposes the Company has gross federal and state NOL carryforwards totaling $860.1 million and tax credit carryforwards of $16.2 million. The gross federal NOL carryforwards generated during and after fiscal 2018 totaling $389.3 million are carried forward indefinitely, while all others, if not utilized, will expire beginning in 2025 through 2037. The research and development credit carryforwards generated prior to 2018 will expire beginning in 2028. The carryforwards may be subject to limitations under the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state tax law.
The Company does not expect to utilize any of its net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards in the near term. The Company may have already experienced one or more ownership changes. Depending on the timing of any future utilization of its carryforwards, the Company may be limited as to the amount that can be utilized each year as a result of such previous ownership changes. However, the Company does not believe such limitations will cause its carryforwards to expire unutilized.
Future changes in the Company’s stock ownership as well as other changes that may be outside the Company’s control could potentially result in further limitations on the Company’s ability to utilize its net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.

The amount of accrued interest and penalties recorded in 2022, 2021 or 2020 was not significant. The Company does not anticipate that the amount of its existing unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. Due to the presence of net operating loss carryforwards in most jurisdictions, the Company’s tax years remain open for examination by U.S. taxing authorities back to 2004.

On May 6, 2021, 10x Genomics, Inc. and Prognosys Biosciences, Inc., or “Prognosys”, filed a complaint, and on May 19, 2021, an amended complaint, and on May 4, 2022, a second amended complaint, against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The amended complaint alleges that certain of the Company’s products, services and components sold by the Company for use in connection with its GeoMx DSP system (the “Identified GeoMx Products”) infringe seven patents owned by Prognosys: (a) U.S. Patent No. 10,472,669, “Spatially encoded biological assays,” (b) U.S. Patent No. 10,961,566, “Spatially encoded biological assays,” (c) U.S. Patent No. 10,983,113, “Spatially encoded biological assays,” (d) U.S. Patent No. 10,996,219, “Spatially encoded biological assays,” (e) U.S. Patent No. 11,001,878, “Spatially encoded biological assays,” (f) U.S. Patent No. 11,008,607, “Spatially encoded biological assays,” and (g) U.S. Patent No. 11,293,917, “Systems for analyzing target biological molecules via sample imaging and delivery of probes to substrate well” (the “Asserted Prognosys Patents”). The amended complaint seeks, among other relief, injunctive relief and unspecified damages (including treble damages and attorneys’ fees) in relation to the Company’s making, using, selling, offering to sell, exporting and/or importing in the United States the Identified GeoMx Products, as well as the alleged infringement by others of the Asserted Prognosys Patents through their use of the Identified GeoMx Products. The Company has evaluated the plaintiffs’ claims and does not believe that its activities infringe any patent rights held by the plaintiffs. On November 17, 2021, the Court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ claims of pre-suit indirect infringement and willful infringement with leave to amend the complaint. Discovery is in progress. A claim construction hearing was held on February 17, 2023. A trial is scheduled for November 2023. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this litigation. The Company is unable to estimate a range of loss, if any, that could result were there to be an adverse final decision in this case.
On February 28, 2022, 10x Genomics, Inc. and President and Fellows of Harvard College, or “Harvard”, filed a complaint, and on May 12, 2022, an amended complaint, against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint alleges that certain of the Company’s products, services and components sold by it for use in connection with its CosMx SMI system (the “Identified CosMx Products”) infringe five patents owned by Harvard: (a) U.S. Patent No. 10,227,639, “Compositions and Methods for Analyte Detection,” and (b) U.S. Patent No. 11,021,737, “Compositions and Methods for Analyte Detection,” (c) U.S. Patent No. 11,293,051, “Compositions and Methods for Analyte Detection”, (d) U.S. Patent No. 11,293,052, “Compositions and Methods for Analyte Detection,” and (e) U.S. Patent No. 11,293,054, “Compositions and Methods for Analyte Detection” (the “U.S. 10x CosMx Case”). The complaint seeks, among other relief, injunctive relief and unspecified damages (including attorneys’ fees) in relation to the Company’s making, using, selling, offering to sell, exporting and/or importing in the United States the Identified CosMx Products. The Company has evaluated the plaintiffs’ claims and does not believe that its activities infringe any patent rights held by the plaintiffs. Discovery is in progress. A claim construction hearing is scheduled for July 2023 and a trial is scheduled for June 2024. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this litigation. The Company is unable to estimate a range of loss, if any, that could result were there to be an adverse final decision in this case. On August 16, 2022, the Company filed counterclaims in this action alleging that 10x Genomics’ Visium Spatial Gene Expression system and related products and services infringe the Company’s U.S. Patent No. 11,377,689, “Chemical Compositions and Uses Thereof.” On January 24, 2023, these counterclaims were consolidated with the claims of a separate patent infringement case that the Company filed against 10x Genomics on October 20, 2022, as discussed below.
On May 9, 2022, the Company was notified of a complaint, dated March 4, 2022, naming the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, NanoString Technologies Germany GmbH, which 10x Genomics, Inc. filed in the Munich Regional Court I in Germany, alleging that the Company’s CosMx SMI system and associated products and services infringe European Patent No. 2794928B1, or “EP 2794928B1”, which is owned by Harvard. The complaint seeks, among other relief, injunctive relief and damages in relation to the Company's selling and offering to sell its CosMx SMI system and associated products and services in Germany. The Company has evaluated the claims and does not believe that its activities infringe any patent rights held by 10x or Harvard. A hearing is scheduled for March 2023 in this proceeding. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this litigation. The Company is unable to estimate a range of loss, if any, that could result were there to be an adverse final decision in this case. On July 29, 2022, the Company, through its German subsidiary, filed a nullity action with the German Federal Patent Court in Munich requesting a judgment that EP 2794928B1, as in effect for Germany, be declared invalid and be revoked in its entirety. On February 10, 2023, the German Federal Patent Court issued a preliminary and non-binding opinion in this nullity action finding that the subject matter of the asserted independent claim 1 of EP 2794928B1 potentially lacked novelty and lacked an inventive step over prior art. The preliminary opinion further addressed Harvard’s seven patent claim limitation requests, referred to as auxiliary requests, which 10x and Harvard seek to have applied in the event that claim 1 of EP 2794928B1, as granted, proves not to be protectable. The preliminary opinion stated that the claim limitations in Auxiliary Request 1 could potentially be used to defend EP 2794928B1 over the cited prior art. The preliminary opinion further stated that Harvard would potentially not be able to use Auxiliary Requests 2 through 7 to establish novelty over the prior art. A hearing before the German Federal Patent Court is scheduled for May 2024 and a decision in the nullity action is expected following the hearing.
On October 20, 2022, the Company filed suit against 10x Genomics, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging that 10x Genomics’ Visium Spatial Gene Expression system and related products and services infringe the Company's U.S. Patent No. 11,473,142, “Chemical Compositions and Uses Thereof.” On January 24, 2023, the Company’s claims from the U.S.10x CosMx Case with respect to U.S. Patent No. 11,377,689 were consolidated with the claims in this action. The Company seeks, among other relief, injunctive relief and unspecified damages (including attorneys’ fees) in relation to 10x Genomics’ making, using, selling, offering to sell, exporting and/or importing in the United States the Visium system and related products and services. Discovery is in progress. A case schedule has not yet been set.
Contingencies
Other than the pending litigations with 10x Genomics and its co-plaintiffs, the Company is not engaged in any material legal proceedings. The Company is involved in other legal proceedings from time to time arising in the normal course of business. Additionally, the Company operates in various states and local jurisdictions for which sales, occupation, or franchise taxes may be payable to certain taxing authorities. Management believes that the outcome of these proceedings and any amounts that may become payable to certain taxing authorities will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.
Purchase Commitments
At December 31, 2022 the Company has non-cancellable purchase obligations of $70.0 million related to binding commitments to purchase inventory and other research and development items, $62.1 million of which is due within the next 12 months. In addition, the Company has construction contracts, associated with one of its Seattle area facilities, of $5.0 million, which is due within the next 12 months.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Net Loss Per Share Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and common stock warrants have not been included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the numerator and the denominator used in computing both basic and diluted net loss per share for each period are the same.
The following common stock participating securities as of December 31 were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented because their effect would have been anti-dilutive (in thousands):

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)
12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2022
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Accounting Principles and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Each of the subsidiaries operates as a sales and support office. The functional currency of each subsidiary is the U.S. dollar. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the estimation of stand-alone selling prices for its products and services, the estimation of the valuation of inventory, the estimates used in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions, and estimates used in certain of the inputs and calculations associated with stock-based compensation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with purchased maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalents consist principally of funds maintained in depository accounts. The Company invests its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions; at times these investments exceed federally insured limits. Restricted cash consists of customer deposits which are secured through letters of credit until performance obligations have been met.
Investments
The Company classifies its debt securities as available-for-sale, which are reported at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity. Realized gains, realized losses and allowance for estimated credit losses are included in other expense, net. The cost of investments for purposes of computing realized and unrealized gains and losses is based on the specific identification method. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are included in other expense, net. Interest and dividends earned on all securities are included in other expense, net. Investments in debt securities with maturities of less than one year, or where management’s intent is to use the investments to fund current operations, or to make them available for current operations, are classified as short-term investments.
Investments are presented net of an allowance for expected credit losses that are remeasured each period and any impairment recognized as an expense. The Company has considered all information and factors and noted no indicators that a credit loss exists as of December 31, 2022. The Company has not experienced any significant investment credit losses to date. Accrued interest receivable is included in prepaid and other current assets and was $0.9 million and $0.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are stated net of an allowance for credit losses. The Company uses available information over the life of the receivables including analysis of past credit losses, recoveries of past credit losses, management’s expectations of future economic positions, as well as market conditions and other extenuating factors to support the allowance estimate.
Concentration of Credit Risks Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash is invested in accordance with the Company’s investment policy, which includes guidelines intended to minimize and diversify credit risk. Most of the Company’s investments are not federally insured. The Company has credit risk related to the collectability of its accounts receivable. The Company performs initial and ongoing evaluations of its customers’ credit history or financial position and generally extends credit on account without collateral.The Company is also subject to supply chain risks related to the outsourcing of the manufacturing and production of its instruments to sole suppliers. Although there are a limited number of manufacturers for instruments of this type, the Company believes that other suppliers could provide similar products on comparable terms. Similarly, the Company sources certain raw materials used in the manufacture of consumables from certain sole suppliers. A change in suppliers, however, could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect operating results.
Fair value of financial instruments The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Investments that are classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value. The fair value for investment securities held and for convertible senior notes are determined using quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency.
Inventory Inventory consists of finished goods, raw materials, including certain intermediate manufactured items, and certain component parts to be used in manufacturing or servicing the Company’s products. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using a standard cost system, whereby the standard costs are updated periodically to reflect current costs and market represents the lower of cost or market (replacement cost or estimated net realizable value). The Company’s policy is to establish inventory reserves when conditions exist that suggest that inventory may be in excess of anticipated demand, obsolete, slow moving or impaired. In the event that the Company identifies these conditions exist in its inventory, its carrying value is reduced to its net realizable value.The Company outsources the manufacturing of its instruments to third-party contract manufacturers who manufacture them to certain specifications and source certain raw materials from sole source providers. Major delays in shipments, inferior quality, insufficient quantity or any combination of these or other factors may harm the Company’s business and results of operations. In addition, the inability of one or more of these suppliers to provide the Company with an adequate supply of its products or raw materials or the loss of one or more of these suppliers may cause a delay in the Company’s ability to fulfill orders while it obtains a replacement supplier and may harm the Company’s business and results of operations.
Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for additions are capitalized and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Gains and losses from the disposal of property and equipment are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of disposition.

Leases and Leasehold Improvements The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of a contract. The Company’s leasing portfolio is comprised of operating and finance leases primarily for general office, manufacturing, and research and development purposes. Operating and finance lease liabilities and the corresponding right-of-use assets are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Operating lease right-of-use assets are reduced by lease incentives included in the agreement. As the existing leases do not contain an implicit interest rate, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company includes options to extend the lease in the lease liability and right-of-use asset when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected, as an accounting policy election, to use the short-term lease recognition exemption on all classes of assets. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and the Company recognizes lease payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease office agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For lease equipment agreements, the Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material variable lease payments, material residual value guarantees or, any material restrictive covenants.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the anticipated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets are less than the asset’s carrying values. The Company has not experienced material impairment losses on its long-lived assets during the periods presented.
Debt, Policy The Company adopted “ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”) effective January 1, 2021. The Company uses the if-converted method for purposes of calculating dilutive earnings per share, if the Convertible Notes are dilutive during the period. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company incurred certain financing costs associated directly with the issuance of the Convertible Notes. These issuance costs were deferred and are amortized to interest expense over five years using the effective interest method.
Segments Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer, who manages the operations and evaluates the financial performance on a total Company basis. The Company’s principal operations and decision-making functions are located at its corporate headquarters in the United States and the Company operates as a single operating and reporting segment.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those products and services. This process involves identifying the contract with a customer, determining the performance obligations in the contract, determining the contract price, allocating the contract price to the distinct performance obligations in the contract and recognizing revenue when the performance obligations have been satisfied. A performance obligation is considered distinct from other obligations in a contract when it provides a benefit to the customer either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer and is separately identified in the contract. Performance obligations are considered satisfied once the Company has transferred control of a product or service to the customer, meaning the customer has the ability to use and obtain the benefit of the product or service. The Company recognizes revenue for satisfied performance obligations only when there are no uncertainties regarding payment terms or transfer of control.
The Company has historically generated the majority of its revenue from sales of its proprietary GeoMx DSP system and nCounter Analysis System, and related consumables. Services consist of instrument service contracts for maintenance, repair and other support related to customer owned instruments, and also certain service fees for assay processing and data analysis and reporting.
Revenue from instruments and consumables is generally recognized upon shipment to the end customer, which is when control of the product has been transferred to the customer. Performance obligations related to instrument sales are reviewed on a contract-by-contract basis, as individual contract terms may vary and revenue is recognized as performance obligations are satisfied. Performance obligations for consumable products are generally completed upon shipment to the customer. While the Company typically completes installation and training of its customers with field-based service personnel, these services can also be provided by distribution partners and other third parties.
Instrument service contracts are sold with contract terms ranging from 12-36 months and cover periods after the end of the initial 12-month warranty. These contracts include services to maintain performance within the Company’s designed specifications and allow the customer to receive certain preventative maintenance service procedures during the contract term. Revenue from services to maintain designed specifications is considered a stand-ready obligation and recognized evenly over the contract term and service revenue related to preventative maintenance of instruments is recognized when the procedure is completed. Revenue from service fees for assay processing is recognized upon the rendering of the related performance obligation which is typically the delivery of data and analysis of the samples that have been processed.
For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract price in proportion to each performance obligation’s relative stand-alone selling price. The Company frequently sells bundles of systems and consumables and, in such instances, uses its best estimate of selling price for its products based on historical sales or similar products. For service, the best estimate of selling price is based on historical stand-alone sales, as stand-alone sales data for services are more readily available. The Company reviews its stand-alone prices at least annually or more frequently if facts and circumstances significantly change.
The Company generally recognizes expense related to the acquisition of contracts, such as sales commissions, at the time of revenue recognition, which is generally in the same period products are sold, and in the case of services, revenue is recognized as services are rendered or over the period of time covered by the service contract. The Company records commission expenses within selling, general and administrative expenses.
Revenues from sales to customers through distributors are recognized consistent with the policies and practices for direct sales to customers, as described above.
Cost of Revenue Cost of product revenue consists primarily of costs incurred in the production process, including costs of purchasing instruments from third-party contract manufacturers, consumable component materials and assembly labor and overhead, installation, and packaging and delivery costs. In addition, cost of product revenue includes royalty costs for licensed technologies included in the Company’s products, provisions for slow-moving and obsolete inventory and stock-based compensation expense. Cost of product revenue for instruments and consumables is recognized in the period the related revenue is recognized. Shipping and handling costs incurred for product shipments are included in cost of product revenue in the consolidated statements of operations.Cost of service revenue consists primarily of field service technicians and the cost of providing repair and maintenance services including parts used in performing those services for instruments covered under warranty and service contracts. In addition, cost of service revenue includes lab personnel labor and overhead, stock-based compensation and materials used in performing data analysis services. Cost of service revenue is recognized in the period the services are performed.
Reserve for Product Warranties The Company generally provides a one-year warranty on both its nCounter Analysis Systems and GeoMx DSP instruments, and establishes a reserve for future warranty costs based on historical product failure rates and actual warranty costs incurred. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of service revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. Warranty reserves were $1.0 million and $1.2 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Research and Development Research and development expenses, consisting primarily of salaries and benefits, stock-based compensation expense, occupancy costs, laboratory supplies, contracted services, and consulting fees are expensed as incurred.
Selling, General and Administrative Selling expenses consist primarily of personnel related costs for sales and marketing, contracted services, and service fees and are expensed as the related costs are incurred. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in sales and marketing expenses.General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel related costs for the Company’s finance, human resources, business development, legal, information technology and general management, as well as professional fees for legal, accounting and other consulting services. General and administrative expenses are expensed as they are incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the tax rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company determines whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the tax amount recognized in the financial statements is reduced by the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the fair value method. Stock-based compensation costs related to restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”) which are granted by the Company are calculated using the grant-date fair value using the intrinsic method and for stock options granted in prior years, stock-based compensation was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized based on the number of awards ultimately expected to vest, using actual forfeitures when incurred. The Company uses the straight-line attribution method over the vesting period for recognizing compensation expense for awards with a service condition. For awards with service and performance conditions, the accelerated recognition method is used over the graded vesting schedules for the awards.
Guarantees and Indemnifications In the normal course of business, the Company guarantees and/or indemnifies other parties, including vendors, lessors and parties to transactions with the Company, with respect to certain matters. The Company has agreed to hold the other parties harmless against losses arising from breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount the Company could be required to pay under these indemnification agreements, since the Company has not had any prior indemnification claims, and each claim would be based upon the unique facts and circumstances of the claim and the particular provisions of each agreement. In the opinion of management, any such claims would not be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. The Company did not have any related liabilities recorded at December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss includes certain changes in equity that are excluded from net loss. Specifically, unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities are included in comprehensive (income) loss.
Fair Value Measurement
The Company establishes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a financial liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy is used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to their relatively short-term maturities. The recorded amount of the Company’s long-term debt can be determined based on the estimated or actual bid prices of the Convertible Senior Notes in an over-the-counter market, which are classified as a Level 2 financial instrument.
Net Loss Per Share Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and common stock warrants have not been included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the numerator and the denominator used in computing both basic and diluted net loss per share for each period are the same.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy The functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, monetary balance sheet accounts are remeasured using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet dates and non-monetary items are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Expenses are generally remeasured at the average exchange rates for the period.
Internal Use Software, Policy
The Company capitalizes certain development costs incurred in connection with software development for internal-use software platforms used in operations. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once software has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. The Company also capitalizes costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality. Capitalized internal-use software development costs are included in property and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software platforms and are included in depreciation and amortization expense within operating expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized capitalized internal-use software development costs were $11.8 million and $4.0 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amortization of capitalized internal-use software costs was $0.3 million for the year ending December 31, 2022.
Capitalized costs associated with the implementation of hosted third-party cloud computing arrangements are recorded as part of current and long-term other assets. Maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the related hosting arrangement. Costs are recorded within the consolidated statements of operations based on the functional use of the software. Unamortized capitalized software implementation costs were $1.9 million and $3.2 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amortization and write-down of capitalized software implementation costs of hosted third-party cloud computing arrangements was $1.3 million and $0.3 million for the years ending December 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Reclassification, Comparability Adjustment ReclassificationsCertain prior year amounts related to inventory categories have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations, financial position or cash flows from operations.
