Company Description
Precipio, Inc. (PRPO) is a healthcare biotechnology company focused on cancer diagnostics. The company states that its mission is to address the pervasive problem of cancer misdiagnoses by developing solutions in the form of diagnostic products and services. According to its public disclosures, Precipio aims for its products and services to deliver higher diagnostic accuracy, improved laboratory workflow, and better patient outcomes, which can reduce healthcare expenses.
Precipio’s business is centered on cancer diagnostics, with a particular emphasis on blood cancers. The company operates Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) laboratories in New Haven, Connecticut and Omaha, Nebraska, providing blood cancer diagnostic services to office-based oncologists in multiple U.S. states. Through these laboratories, Precipio designs, tests, validates, and uses its technologies in a clinical setting, and then commercializes those technologies as proprietary products for the broader laboratory community.
The company describes itself as a specialty cancer diagnostics business that develops and commercializes diagnostic products, reagents, and services. According to its disclosures, Precipio provides diagnostic products to the oncology diagnostic laboratory market, including its HemeScreen and IV-Cell product offerings. These products are intended to support laboratory workflows and diagnostic decision-making in hematology and oncology settings. The company has also highlighted a BCR::ABL1 assay, which has been evaluated in a joint study with collaborators at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
Precipio reports that it develops technologies internally in its laboratory environment, where they are first designed, tested, validated, and used clinically. After demonstrating clinical utility, the company then commercializes these technologies as proprietary products that can be adopted by other laboratories. This approach is intended to extend Precipio’s reach beyond its own facilities and to serve a global laboratory community that is focused on improving cancer diagnostic accuracy and reducing misdiagnosis.
From a corporate and capital markets perspective, Precipio’s common stock trades on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol PRPO. The company has described itself in its news releases and SEC filings as a specialty cancer diagnostics company and a healthcare biotechnology company. In its public communications, management has referenced two main operating areas: a pathology services division and a products division. The pathology services division focuses on diagnostic services, while the products division supplies diagnostic products and panels to laboratory customers.
In its financial updates, Precipio has discussed revenue contributions from both pathology services and product customers. The company has reported that its pathology services division provides diagnostic services and that its products division sells panels and related offerings to laboratory customers, including through distributor relationships. It has also stated that it previously generated a majority of its revenue from third-party payers, reflecting reimbursement for diagnostic services.
Precipio’s public statements indicate an emphasis on improving laboratory efficiency and margins through scale. The company has discussed how investments in laboratory capacity and manufacturing-related equipment are intended to support future growth in both its services and products operations. It has also described how increased case volume and changes in case mix in its pathology services division, as well as expanded product usage by existing customers, can influence gross margins.
In addition to its operational activities, Precipio has communicated several capital structure and financing developments. It has reported terminating an at-the-market (ATM) sales agreement with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, under which it had previously sold a limited number of shares of common stock. The company has also announced arrangements with warrant holders, including the exercise of warrants on both cash and cashless bases, and has disclosed that financial warrants issued in a prior financing have been fully exercised. In a recent update, Precipio stated that, aside from a small loan with the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development, it has a debt-free balance sheet and a limited number of vendor warrants outstanding.
Precipio has also reported on a cybersecurity-related event involving unauthorized access to a specific data folder within its secure cloud file environment. According to the company, the incident was limited in scope, did not affect its diagnostic operations, customer services, or patient care, and did not involve patient Social Security numbers, addresses, or financial information. The company has stated that it engaged external cybersecurity and forensic specialists, implemented additional security measures, and maintains a cybersecurity insurance policy intended to cover associated investigation and response costs.
Through its regular shareholder update calls and SEC filings, Precipio provides information about its operating performance, capital structure, and strategic priorities. Management has publicly emphasized goals such as revenue growth in both divisions, improvements in gross margins, and maintaining or achieving positive cash flow from operations. These communications are made available through SEC filings, press releases, and investor presentations referenced in the company’s Form 8-K filings.
Business Segments and Offerings
Pathology Services Division
Precipio’s pathology services division focuses on cancer diagnostics, with an emphasis on blood cancers. The company operates CLIA laboratories in New Haven, Connecticut and Omaha, Nebraska, and reports that these laboratories provide essential blood cancer diagnostics to office-based oncologists in many states. The division’s revenues are derived from diagnostic services, and the company has discussed growth driven by new customer accounts and increased volume from existing customers.
Products Division
The products division supplies diagnostic products to laboratory customers. According to the company’s disclosures, this division includes offerings such as HemeScreen and IV-Cell product lines and panels used by laboratories. Precipio has reported that product revenues can grow through expanded usage by existing customers, the addition of new panels, and new applications in customer laboratories. The company has also described working with a distributor network and a pipeline of prospective product customers.
Technology Development and Commercialization
Precipio states that it develops its diagnostic technologies in-house, within its own laboratories. These technologies are designed, tested, validated, and used clinically before being commercialized. By first applying its technologies in a clinical setting, the company seeks to demonstrate diagnostic performance and workflow benefits. Once validated, these technologies are then offered as proprietary products to other laboratories, which can adopt them to support their own oncology diagnostic workflows.
The company has highlighted specific assays and panels in its communications. For example, Precipio has announced a BCR::ABL1 assay and described a joint study with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center that evaluated the assay’s performance across hundreds of patient samples. The company has stated that the study demonstrated superior performance of the assay, concordance with other leading platforms, and positive impacts on patient care and laboratory workflows.
Capital Structure and Financing Actions
Precipio’s SEC filings and press releases describe several actions related to its capital structure. The company entered into a Sales Agreement with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners in 2023, allowing it to conduct at-the-market offerings of common stock. In a subsequent Form 8-K, Precipio reported that, effective September 2, 2025, it terminated this Sales Agreement and could no longer sell shares under that arrangement. Over the life of the agreement, the company sold a limited number of shares for modest net proceeds.
The company has also reported on warrant-related transactions. In one press release, Precipio announced an agreement with a large warrant holder to exercise a portion of warrants for cash and the remainder on a cashless basis, affecting both cash inflows and the number of shares issued. In later communications, the company stated that all financial warrants issued in a prior financing have been exercised, leaving only a small number of vendor warrants outstanding.
In a more recent update, Precipio described repaying an advance from Change Healthcare, which had been provided to cover collections shortfalls following a cybersecurity incident at Change Healthcare. The company reported that, after repayment of this advance, it maintained only a small loan with the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development and otherwise had a debt-free balance sheet.
Risk Management and Cybersecurity
Precipio has publicly addressed risk management in the context of cybersecurity. The company reported identifying a limited unauthorized access incident involving its secure cloud file environment. It stated that the incident was confined to certain historical operational files, such as procedures, temperature logs, and vendor invoices, and that no patient Social Security numbers, addresses, or financial data, nor proprietary or financial company data, were involved. The company indicated that it initiated incident response procedures, engaged external experts, reset passwords, enhanced monitoring, and that, based on available information, it did not anticipate material impact on operations, customers, patient care, or shareholders.
Investor Communications
Precipio regularly communicates with shareholders through quarterly update calls, press releases, and SEC filings. The company has filed multiple Form 8-K reports describing shareholder update calls, investor presentations, and the termination of its ATM facility. These communications provide additional detail on the company’s financial performance, operating divisions, and strategic priorities, and are referenced as exhibits in the company’s SEC filings.
