About Personalis, Inc.
At Personalis, we are transforming the active management of cancer through breakthrough personalized testing. We aim to drive a new paradigm for cancer management, guiding care from biopsy through the life of the patient. Our highly sensitive assays combine tumor-and-normal profiling with proprietary algorithms to deliver advanced insights even as cancer evolves over time. Our products are designed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) and recurrence at the earliest timepoints, enable the selection of targeted therapies based on ultra-comprehensive genomic profiling, and enhance biomarker strategy for drug development. Personalis is based in
Non-GAAP Financial Measure
To supplement our financial guidance presented in accordance with GAAP, we are presenting expected non-GAAP net loss for the full year ending December 31, 2024, which excludes income and expense from the outstanding warrants issued to Tempus from GAAP net loss. We are excluding income and expense attributable to the fair value of the outstanding warrants issued to Tempus because they are non-cash financial measures that require remeasurement of the fair value, derived from the then-current trading price of our Common Stock, as of each reporting date, and consequently there is substantial uncertainty associated with forecasting the fair value of the Tempus warrants at the future measurement dates. For this reason, we have not provided a reconciliation of our forward-looking non-GAAP net loss to GAAP net loss (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure), in reliance on the “unreasonable efforts” exception set forth in the applicable regulations.
