2018 Financial Outlook

In positioning its business to deliver near-term growth and raised profitability, the company is directing its focus and resource allocation toward catalysts that it expects will drive further adoption and reimbursement of its portfolio globally with greater operational efficiency. Specifically, the company plans to direct resources to expand its Oncotype DX offering through the development of in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test solutions, including on the Biocartis® Idylla™ platform, to raise global access in markets where localized testing is critical for adoption and reimbursement. With this shift in focus, the company will no longer provide the Oncotype SEQ® Liquid Select™ test or further invest in non-proprietary next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based panels. Accordingly, the company will reduce positions by about 10 percent and take a charge of about $10M in the first quarter for costs associated with personnel reductions and the write-off of certain assets associated with NGS-based panels.
