Co-Diagnostics (NASDAQ: CODX) posts Q1 2026 loss and warns on going concern
Co-Diagnostics, Inc. reported a weak first quarter of 2026, with total revenue of $145,954 and a net loss of $9.14 million compared to a $7.53 million loss a year earlier. Cost of revenue exceeded sales, leading to a negative gross margin, while operating expenses rose to $9.16 million on higher research and development and legal and professional costs.
Cash and cash equivalents fell to $8.23 million at March 31, 2026, after using $7.85 million in operating cash in the quarter, partially offset by $4.33 million raised through an at-the-market stock program. Management concluded that substantial doubt exists about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern over the next 12 months, reflecting dependence on new financing and future profitability.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- Going concern uncertainty: Management concludes substantial doubt exists about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the 12 months following issuance of these financial statements, given ongoing losses and dependence on new financing.
- High losses and cash burn: Q1 2026 net loss reached $9.14 million on revenue of only $145,954, with operating cash outflows of $7.85 million, rapidly consuming the $8.23 million cash balance.
Insights
Q1 shows heavy cash burn, going concern warning, and reliance on new capital.
Co-Diagnostics generated only $145,954 of Q1 2026 revenue while posting a net loss of $9.14 million. Operating cash outflow was $7.85 million, highlighting that the business is still far from funding itself. R&D and legal costs are the main expense drivers.
Cash fell to $8.23 million from $11.88 million in three months, despite raising $4.33 million via an at-the-market equity program. The shelf registration supporting that ATM has now expired, limiting this funding source until a new shelf is effective.
Management explicitly states that “substantial doubt” exists about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from issuance of the financials. Future results will hinge on securing additional equity or debt financing and on whether spending on the Co-Dx PCR platform ultimately translates into meaningful, recurring revenue.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Overview and Basis of Presentation
Description of Business
Co-Diagnostics, Inc., a Utah corporation (the “Company” or “CODX”), is a molecular diagnostics company that develops, manufactures and markets state-of-the-art diagnostics technologies. The Company’s technologies are utilized for tests that are designed using the detection and/or analysis of nucleic acid molecules (DNA or RNA). The Company also uses its proprietary technology to design specific tests for its Co-Dx™ PCR platform and to locate genetic markers for use in applications other than infectious disease. In connection with the sale of our tests we may sell diagnostic equipment from other manufacturers as self-contained lab systems.
Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information as they are prescribed for smaller reporting companies. As permitted under those rules and regulations, certain notes or other financial information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026. A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is set forth in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Such estimates include receivables and other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, income taxes, share based arrangements, and others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Actual amounts and results could differ from those estimates.
Liquidity and Going Concern
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern, (“ASC 205-40”) the Company evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date on which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed. Based on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026, the Company’s current and forecasted level of operations, and its forecasted cash flows, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due, and to generate profitable operations in the future. Management plans to provide for the Company’s capital requirements through equity and/or debt financing, seeking additional grant funding, and through operational efficiencies. Our ability to obtain additional financing in equity capital markets is subject to several factors, including market and economic conditions, our performance and investor sentiment with respect to us and our industry. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise a sufficient amount of additional capital to fund operations with terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. Because certain elements of management’s plans to mitigate the conditions that raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern are outside of the Company’s control, including the ability to raise capital through equity or other financings, those elements cannot be considered probable according to ASC 205-40, and therefore cannot be considered in the evaluation of mitigating factors. As a result, management has concluded that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
| 7 |
The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2026 have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern for the next 12 months after these financial statements are issued, and that contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its uncertain ability to obtain additional capital, reduce expenditures, and execute on its business plans. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on the previously reported results.
Operating Segments
The Company operates as one operating segment. Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s CODM evaluates financial information and resources and assesses the performance of these resources on a consolidated basis. There is no expense or asset information that is supplemental to information disclosed within the condensed consolidated financial statements, that is regularly provided to the CODM. The allocation of resources and assessment of performance of the operating segment is based on consolidated net loss and functional expenses as reported on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Because the Company operates as one operating segment, financial segment information, including expense and asset information, can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements. All material long-lived assets are located in the United States and India.
Accounts Receivable
Trade
accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount (net of allowance) and do not bear interest. The Company maintains an allowance
for doubtful accounts for amounts the Company does not expect to collect. In establishing the required allowance, management considers
historical losses, current market conditions, customers’ financial condition, the age of receivables, and current payment patterns.
Account balances are written off against the allowance once the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously
written off are recorded when collected. At March 31, 2026 total accounts receivable was $
Inventory
Inventory
is stated at the lower of cost or net-realizable value. Inventory cost is determined on a first-in first-out basis that approximates
average cost in accordance with ASC 330-10-30-12. At March 31, 2026, the Company had $
| 8 |
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from customers from product and license sales. The Company recognizes revenue from customers when all of the following criteria are satisfied: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when, or as the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The Company constrains revenue by giving consideration to factors that could otherwise lead to a probable reversal of revenue. The Company records any payments received from customers prior to the Company fulfilling its performance obligation(s) as deferred revenue.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities represent the tax effect of temporary differences between financial reporting and tax reporting measured at enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company recognizes only the impact of tax positions that, based on their technical merits, are more likely than not to be sustained upon an audit by the taxing authority.
Valuation allowances are provided when it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of the deferred income tax assets may not be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company has considered its historical levels of income, expectations of future taxable income and ongoing tax planning strategies.
Developing the provision for income taxes, including the effective tax rate and analysis of potential tax exposure items, if any, requires significant judgment and expertise in federal and state income tax laws, regulations and strategies, including the determination of deferred income tax assets and liabilities and any estimated valuation allowances deemed necessary to value deferred income tax assets. Judgments and tax strategies are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. The Company has uncertain income tax positions in the condensed consolidated financial statements, and adverse determinations by these taxing authorities could have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement (Subtopic 220-40): Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which requires an entity to disclose on an annual and interim basis, disaggregated information about specific income statement expense categories. The guidance should be applied prospectively with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The standard becomes effective for the Company for full year 2027 reporting. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides all entities with a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. Early adoption is permitted and entities should apply the practical expedient, if elected, prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date. The standard became effective for the Company for interim and full year 2026 reporting. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which provides authoritative guidance for the accounting and presentation of government grants received by business entities, distinguishing between grants related to assets and grants related to income. Early adoption is permitted and entities may apply the standard using a modified prospective, modified retrospective, or full retrospective transition approach, subject to the specific criteria outlined in the ASU. The standard becomes effective for the Company for full year 2029 reporting. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which clarifies and improves the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 270, Interim Reporting. Early adoption is permitted and entities may apply the standard prospectively or retrospectively. The standard becomes effective for the Company for interim 2028 reporting. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Codification Improvements, which includes narrow-scope amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to clarify, correct errors, and make minor improvements to existing U.S. GAAP. This standard becomes effective for the Company for interim and full year 2027 reporting. As the amendments are not expected to introduce new recognition or measurement principles, the Company does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements related to ASU 2025-12.

Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures and records certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is based on the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The following three levels of inputs are used to measure the fair value of financial assets and liabilities:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, by level within the fair value hierarchy:

| 11 |
In connection with previous acquisitions, the Company recorded a liability for contingent consideration in the form of shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock, both to be issued when certain milestones are achieved. The fair value of contingent consideration is calculated using a discounted probability weighted valuation model. Discount rates used in such calculations are a significant assumption that are not observed in the market, and therefore, the resulting fair value represents a Level 3 measurement.
The changes for Level 3 items measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:
Schedule of Changes in the Fair Value Measurement
| Fair value as of December 31, 2025 | $ | |||
| Change in fair value of contingent consideration issued for business acquisitions | ( | ) | ||
| Fair value as of March 31, 2026 | $ |
The fair value of the contingent consideration is based on the fair value of the contingent consideration-common stock and contingent consideration-warrants. The fair value of the contingent consideration-common stock is equal to the probability-adjusted value of the Company’s common stock as of the valuation date. The fair value of the contingent consideration-warrants is equal to the probability adjusted value of a call option with terms consistent with the terms of the warrants as of the valuation date. Prior to the probability adjustments, the warrants were valued based on the following inputs:
Schedule of Contingent Consideration Common Stock and Warrants
| March 31, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | |||||||
| Stock price | $ | $ | ||||||
| Strike price | $ | $ | ||||||

| Risk-free rate | % | % | ||||||
| Expected term (years) | ||||||||
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash held in banks, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities and are excluded from the fair value tables above.

Litigation
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.
The
Company is a defendant in one class action suit claiming that the Company overstated the demand for its Logix Smart COVID-19 test and
that the plaintiffs suffered losses when the Company’s stock dropped after the Company disclosed its financial results. The plaintiffs
demand compensatory damages sustained as a result of the Company’s alleged wrongdoing in an amount to be proven at trial. The Company
is also a party to one civil action based on breach of contract claims against the Company.
The Company believes these lawsuits are without merit and is defending the cases vigorously. The Company is unable to estimate a range of loss,
if any, that could result were there to be an adverse final decision in these cases. As of the date of this report, the Company does not
believe it is probable that these cases will result in an unfavorable outcome; however, if an unfavorable outcome were to occur in these
cases, it is possible that the impact could be material to the Company’s results of operations in the period(s) in which any such
outcome becomes probable and estimable. The Company was previously a party to two commercial lawsuits, one in the Third Judicial District Court, Salt Lake
County, Utah against Hukui Technology, Inc., and another in the United Kingdom against Pantheon International Advisors, Ltd. In March
2026, the Company received a favorable ruling in its litigation with Hukui Technology, Inc., in which the trial court found in favor of
the Company on its declaratory judgment claim and on all remaining counterclaims, concluding that the Company had no payment obligations
and that the defendants were not entitled to damages. In addition, on March 31, 2026, the Company entered into a settlement agreement
with Pantheon International Advisors Ltd. to fully resolve all disputes, including related proceedings in the United Kingdom. Under the
terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to pay $

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” that involve risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Quarterly Report and the documents incorporated by reference herein, including statements regarding future events, our future financial performance, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. We have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by terminology including “anticipates,” “believes,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “should,” or “will” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and the documents incorporated by reference herein, which may affect our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in a highly regulated, very competitive, and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risk factors, nor can we address the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in other documents we file with the SEC, including our Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026, and the audited financial statements and notes included therein.
As used in this Quarterly Report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, and “Co-Diagnostics” means Co-Diagnostics, Inc., a Utah corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), unless otherwise indicated.
Executive Overview
The following management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations describes the principal factors affecting the results of our operations, financial condition, and changes in financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. The information contained in this discussion is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. We urge you to review carefully the section of this report entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Business Overview
Co-Diagnostics, Inc., a Utah corporation (the “Company” or “CODX”), develops, manufactures and sells reagents used for diagnostic tests that function via the detection and/or analysis of nucleic acid molecules (DNA or RNA), including molecular tools for detection of infectious diseases. Our diagnostics systems enable dependable, low-cost, molecular testing for organisms and genetic diseases by automating or simplifying historically complex procedures in both the development and administration of tests. CODX’s technical advance involves a novel, proprietary approach to polymerase chain reaction (“PCR”) test design of primer and probe structure (“Co-Primers®”) that dramatically reduces one of the key vexing issues of PCR amplification: the exponential growth of primer-dimer amplification (false positives) which adversely interferes with identification of the target DNA/RNA. Using our proprietary test design system and reagents, we have designed and obtained regulatory approval to sell PCR diagnostic tests for the detection of COVID-19, influenza, tuberculosis, hepatitis B and C, human papillomavirus, malaria, chikungunya, dengue, and the Zika virus. These initial diagnostic tests are cleared for use in clinical labs only and not for point-of-care or at-home use.
We have developed a portable diagnostic device and test system designed for point-of-care and at-home use. The system is comprised of our PCR instrument that we refer to as the Co-Dx™ PCR Pro® instrument and a mobile application to be installed on the user’s mobile device. We refer to the system as the “Co-Dx™ PCR platform” which has been designed to bring affordable, reliable polymerase chain reaction (“PCR”) testing to patients in point-of-care and at-home settings. The Co-Dx PCR platform is subject to U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) review and is not available for sale at the time of this filing. In June 2024, we completed our first FDA application for 510(k) clearance for the Co-Dx PCR Pro instrument, the Co-Dx PCR COVID-19 Test, and the Co-Dx PCR mobile app for over-the-counter (OTC) use. Following engagement with the FDA during the review process, the Company voluntarily withdrew the 510(k) submission after discussions regarding the analytical approach for detecting potential degradation of a test component over its intended shelf life. While the Company believes that the matter identified during the review process could have been addressed through additional development and clinical validation activities, management determined that the capital and time required to resubmit the COVID-19 test for 510(k) clearance would be more effectively deployed toward development and clinical validation of the Co-Dx PCR Flu A/B, COVID-19, RSV multiplex test (“ABCR”). Moving focus to this test allows the Company to incorporate more recent Co-Dx PCR platform developments into the design and test manufacturing process. Management believes that a multiplex test targeting influenza A/B, COVID-19, and RSV better aligns with current clinical demand for comprehensive upper respiratory infection testing in point-of-care settings. Accordingly, clinical performance studies for the ABCR test are currently underway. There is no guarantee that our Co-Dx PCR platform will receive the necessary regulatory approvals for commercialization, or that, if regulatory approval is received, we will be able to successfully commercialize this platform.

Technology
We believe our proprietary and patented molecular diagnostics technology is paving the way for innovation in disease detection and life sciences research through our enhanced detection of genetic material. For various reasons, including owning our own platform, we believe we will be able to accomplish this faster and more economically than some competitors, allowing for significant margins while still positioning ourselves as a low-cost provider of molecular diagnostics and screening services. For example, we were the first US-based company to receive a CE-marking for a COVID-19 test in early 2020, as we worked to help slow the spread of the pandemic through our global network of distributors covering clinical labs in more than 50 countries. Our Logix Smart® COVID-19 test was designed, developed, submitted for regulatory approval and ready to be used as an in vitro diagnostic (“IVD”) in countries that accept CE marking for regulatory clearance in a period of just over 30 days. This is a real-world example of how CODX technology can be used in an evolving epidemic or pandemic to get diagnostic tools in the hands of medical professionals in a timely manner. It can be similarly used to design a test for mutated strains of SARS-CoV-2 or other viruses should they not be detectable using currently available tests.
In addition, continued development has demonstrated the unique properties of our Co-Primers technology that we believe makes it ideally suited for a variety of applications where specificity is key to optimal results, including multiplexing several targets, enhanced Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (“SNP”) detection and enrichment for next generation sequencing.
Our scientists use the complex mathematics of DNA/RNA PCR test design to engineer and optimize PCR tests and to automate algorithms that rapidly screen millions of possible options to pinpoint the optimum design. The intellectual property we use in our business consists of the predictive mathematical algorithms and patented molecular structure used in the testing process, which together represent a major advance in PCR testing systems. CODX technologies are now protected by more than 20 granted or pending US and foreign patents, as well as certain trade secrets and copyrights. Ownership of our proprietary platform permits us the advantage of avoiding payment of patent royalties required by other PCR test systems, which may allow for the sale of diagnostic PCR tests at a lower price than competitors, while enabling us to maintain profit margins.
Our proprietary test design process involves identifying the optimal locations on the target genes for amplification and pairing the locations with the optimized primer and probe structure to achieve outputs that meet the design input requirements identified from market research. This is done by following planned and documented processes, procedures and testing. In other words, we use the data resulting from our tests to verify whether we succeeded in designing what we intended. Verification involves a series of testing that concludes that the product is ready to proceed to validation in an evaluation either in our laboratory or in an independent laboratory setting using initial production tests to confirm that the product as designed meets the user’s needs.
Using our proprietary test design system and reagents, we have designed and obtained regulatory clearance in the European Community and in India (along with our joint venture, CoSara) to sell PCR diagnostic tests for the detection of COVID-19, influenza, tuberculosis, hepatitis B and C, human papillomavirus, malaria, chikungunya, dengue, and the Zika virus. In the United States, we obtained Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA”) for our Logix Smart® COVID-19 detection test from the FDA, and we sell that test to qualified labs. In addition, our COVID-19 detection test and certain of our other suite of COVID-19 products have been cleared for sale in countries such as the United Kingdom, Australia, India, and Mexico by the regulatory bodies in those countries and have been registered for sale in many more countries. In connection with the sale of our tests we may sell diagnostic equipment from other manufacturers, including an OEM’s PCR instrument which we refer to here as the “Co-Dx Box™”.
In addition to testing for infectious diseases, Co-Primers technology lends itself to identifying any section of a DNA or RNA strand that describes any type of genetic trait, which creates several significant applications. We, in conjunction with our customers, have designed tests that identify genetic traits in plant and animal genomes. We also have commercialized three multiplexed tests to test mosquitos for the presence of diseases they carry, which enables municipalities to concentrate their efforts in managing mosquito populations in specific areas where mosquitos carrying deadly viruses are known to breed.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 Compared to the Three Months ended March 31, 2025
Revenues
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we generated revenues of $0.1 million, compared to revenues of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Cost of Revenues
We recorded cost of revenues of approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to approximately $22,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Included within cost of revenues is a decrease of approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and a decrease of approximately $41,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, related to reserves against certain raw materials and finished goods inventories.
Expenses
Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $9.2 million, compared to total operating expenses of $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to expenses related to clinical trials for the Co-Dx PCR platform and increased legal expense and professional services expense, partially offset by decreased stock-based compensation expense.
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $0.5 million, compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily a result of decreased stock-based compensation expense and decreased tradeshow and travel expense.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $2.5 million, compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease resulted primarily from decreased personnel related expense and stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by increased legal and professional services expense.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $5.9 million, compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily a result of expenses related to clinical trials for the Co-Dx PCR platform, partially offset by decreased personnel related expense.
Other Income
Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $0.1 million, compared to other income of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily a result of changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, as well as decreased realized gains from investments in marketable securities.
Net Loss
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $9.1 million, compared to $7.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The larger net loss was primarily the result of higher operating expenses and decreased other income, including changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and decreased realized gains on investments.
| 21 |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8.2 million. Additionally, our total current assets at March 31, 2026, were $9.8 million compared to total current liabilities of $4.3 million.
Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $7.8 million, compared to $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was primarily due to a lower usage of cash to pay accounts payable and accrued liabilities from the end of the previous year.
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to cash provided by investing activities of $7.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in cash provided by investing activities is primarily due to proceeds from redemption less purchases of investments during the prior year.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The cash provided by financing activities during 2026 relates to issuances of common stock under the ATM.
Since commencing sales of our Logix Smart COVID-19 test in March 2020, we have used our cash generated from those sales to fund the purchase of inventories and the development of our Co-Dx PCR Platform, and to pay our operating expenses.
Our available capital resources may be consumed more rapidly than currently expected and we may need or want to raise additional financing for strategic opportunities. It is anticipated that the Company will continue to generate operating losses and use cash in operations in the near term. If needed, we expect additional investment capital to come from additional issuances of our common stock or other equity-based securities with existing and new investors similar to those that have provided funding in the past or debt financing.
Although we are seeking to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing, such funding is not assured and may not be available to us on favorable or acceptable terms and may involve significant restrictive covenants. Any additional equity financing, if available to us at all, will most likely be dilutive to our current stockholders. If we are not able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on a timely basis, the impact on us will be material and adverse. These uncertainties create substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Liquidity and Capital Resources discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding the Company’s liquidity runway, anticipated use of proceeds, potential sales under the at-the-market program, and the Company’s financing plans and capital needs. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially, including those described under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
