SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which are subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections. All statements, other than statements of historical facts included in this Quarterly Report, including statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, beliefs, business strategies, results of operations, financial position, sufficiency of our capital resources and business outlook, future events, business conditions, costs and expenses that we expect to incur or to save in connection with our planned workforce reduction, uncertainties related to the global COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of our and our customers' and suppliers' responses to it, business trends and other information, may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or variations of them or similar terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot provide any assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct and actual results may vary materially from what is expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statement. Such statements reflect the current views of our management with respect to our business, results of operations and future financial performance.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report and Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“Annual Report”). Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. We cannot assure you that the results, events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. For a more detailed discussion of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ, please refer to the “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report and this Quarterly Report, as such risk factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Our periodic filings are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make. Further, as the COVID-19 pandemic is continuously evolving, our forward-looking statements may not accurately or fully reflect the potential impact that the COVID-19 pandemic may have on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.
Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise indicates, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company,” “10x” and similar references refer to 10x Genomics, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Organization and Description of Business
10x Genomics, Inc. (the “Company”) is a life sciences technology company focused on building innovative products and solutions to interrogate, understand and master biological systems at resolution and scale that matches the complexity of biology. The Company’s integrated solutions include the Company’s Chromium Controller, Chromium Connect and Chromium X Series instruments, which the Company refers to as “Chromium instruments,” the Company's Visium CytAssist instrument and the Company’s proprietary microfluidic chips, slides, reagents and other consumables for the Company's Chromium and Visium solutions, which the Company refers to as “consumables.” The Company bundles its software with these products to guide customers through the workflow, from sample preparation through analysis and visualization. The Company was incorporated in the state of Delaware in July 2012 and began commercial and manufacturing operations and selling its instruments and consumables in 2015. The Company is headquartered in Pleasanton, California and has wholly-owned subsidiaries in Asia, Europe and North America.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, which include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2021 have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company at that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for the periods presented, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for any future annual or interim period. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The inputs into our judgments and estimates consider the economic implications of COVID-19 on our critical and significant accounting estimates.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022 (our "Annual Report").
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There were no material changes in the Company's significant accounting policies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, except as set forth below. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report, for information regarding the Company's significant accounting policies.
Marketable Securities
The Company designates investments in debt securities as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale debt securities with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase are classified within cash and cash equivalents. Available-for-sale debt securities with original maturities longer than three months are available to fund current operations and are classified as marketable securities, within current assets on the balance sheet. Available-for-sale debt securities are reported at fair value with the related unrealized gains and losses included in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)," a component of stockholders’ equity, net of tax. Realized gains (losses) on the sale of marketable securities are determined using the specific-identification method and recorded in "Other (expense) income, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The available-for-sale debt securities are subject to a periodic impairment review. For investments in an unrealized loss position, the Company determines whether a credit loss exists by considering information about the collectability of the instrument, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions. The Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses, up to the amount of the unrealized loss when appropriate, and writes down the amortized cost basis of the investment if it is more likely than not that the Company will be required or will intend to sell the

investment before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Allowances for credit losses and write-downs are recognized in “Other (expense) income, net,” and unrealized losses not related to credit losses are recognized in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)”. There are no allowances for credit losses for the periods presented. As of June 30, 2022, the gross unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities are related to market interest rate changes and not attributable to credit.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of money market funds and cash which are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level 2 - Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of Level 1 and Level 2 assets. Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified as Level 1. Money market funds are classified as Level 1. Level 2 assets consist primarily of corporate bonds, asset backed securities, commercial paper, U.S. Government Treasury and agency securities, and debt securities in government-sponsored entities based upon quoted market prices for similar movements in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets. Where applicable these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs obtained from various third party data providers, including but not limited to, benchmark yields, interest rate curves, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and reference data.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from sales of products and services, and its products consist of instruments and consumables. Revenue from product sales is recognized when control of the product is transferred, which is generally upon shipment to the customer. Instrument service agreements, which relate to extended warranties, are typically entered into for one-year terms, following the expiration of the standard one-year warranty period. Revenue for extended warranties is recognized ratably over the term of the extended warranty period as a stand ready performance obligation. Revenue is recorded net of discounts, distributor commissions and sales taxes collected on behalf of governmental authorities. Customers are invoiced generally upon shipment, or upon order for services, and payment is typically due within 45 days. Cash received from customers in advance of product shipment or providing services is recorded as a contract liability. The Company’s contracts with its customers generally do not include rights of return or a significant financing component.
The Company regularly enters into contracts that include various combinations of products and services which are generally distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation in proportion to its standalone selling price. The Company determines standalone selling price using average selling prices with consideration of current market conditions. If the product or service has no history of sales or if the sales volume is not sufficient, the Company relies upon prices set by management, adjusted for applicable discounts.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed using the two-class method required for multiple classes of common stock and participating securities. The rights, including the liquidation and dividend rights and sharing of losses, of the Class A common stock and Class B common stock are identical, other than voting rights. As the liquidation and dividend rights and sharing of losses are identical, the undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis and the resulting net loss per share will, therefore, be the same for both Class A and Class B common stock on an individual or combined basis.
9
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, adjusted for outstanding shares that are subject to repurchase.
For the calculation of diluted net loss per share, basic net loss per share is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities including awards under the Company’s equity compensation plans. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. For periods in which the Company reports net losses, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because potentially dilutive shares of common stock are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive.

8. Subsequent Event
On August 3, 2022, to decrease its costs and maintain a streamlined organization to support its business, the Company committed to a reduction in force that is expected to result in the termination of approximately 8% of the Company’s global workforce. In connection with the reduction in force, the Company currently estimates it will incur between approximately $5 million and $6 million of costs, consisting primarily of cash severance costs, which the Company expects to recognize in the third quarter of 2022. The estimates of costs and expenses that the Company expects to incur in connection with the workforce reduction are subject to a number of assumptions and actual results may differ materially. The Company may also incur additional costs not currently contemplated due to events that may occur as a result of, or that are associated with, the workforce reduction.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our unaudited condensed financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022 (our "Annual Report"). As discussed in the section titled “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements,” the following discussion and analysis, in addition to historical financial information, contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report and Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report.
In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.
Overview
We are a life sciences technology company focused on building innovative products and solutions to interrogate, understand and master biological systems at resolution and scale that matches the complexity of biology. Our expanding suite of offerings leverages our cross-functional expertise across biology, chemistry, software and hardware to provide a comprehensive, dynamic and high-resolution view of complex biological systems. We have launched multiple products that enable researchers to understand and interrogate biological analytes in their full biological context. Our commercial product portfolio leverages our Chromium Controller, Chromium Connect and Chromium X Series, which we refer to as “Chromium instruments,” our Visium CytAssist, an instrument designed to simplify the Visium solution workflow by facilitating the transfer of analytes from standard glass slides to Visium slides, and our proprietary microfluidic chips, slides, reagents and other consumables for our Chromium and Visium solutions, which we refer to as “consumables.” We bundle our software with these products to guide customers through the workflow, from sample preparation through analysis and visualization.
Our products cover a wide variety of applications and allow researchers to analyze biological systems at fundamental resolutions and on massive scales, such as at the single cell level for millions of cells. Our instruments and consumables are designed to work together exclusively. After buying an instrument, customers purchase consumables from us for use in their experiments. In addition to instrument and consumable sales, we derive revenue from post-warranty service contracts for our instruments.
Since our inception in 2012, we have incurred net losses in each year. Our net losses were $64.5 million and $106.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and $11.1 million and $22.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $970.2 million, and, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaling $499.7 million. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses for the foreseeable future and to incur operating losses in the near term. We expect our expenses will increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, as we:
•attract, hire and retain qualified personnel;
•scale our technology platforms and introduce new products and services;
•protect and defend our intellectual property;
•acquire businesses or technologies; and
•invest in processes, tools and infrastructure to support the growth of our business.
Operational Effectiveness in the COVID-19 Environment
We continue to closely monitor developments surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic including, among other developments, the potential impacts of variants. Many of our customers continue to navigate COVID-19 related challenges that we believe have affected our customers’ productivity. Such challenges include COVID-19 related protocols and restrictions, difficulties hiring, training and retaining laboratory and other personnel, constraints on logistics, shipping and other distribution operations and impediments to procuring materials, equipment and components required for their experiments. For example, we believe
16
COVID-19 related lockdowns in China negatively impacted our revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2022. We, our suppliers and our other partners also have encountered COVID-19 related challenges, including difficulties procuring equipment, materials and components necessary to develop, manufacture and distribute our products, but to date we have not experienced any material impacts as a result of such challenges.
There is considerable uncertainty about the duration of the ongoing impacts of COVID-19. We expect COVID-19 to continue to impact our operating results, however, the extent of the financial impact and duration cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. For further discussion of the risks relating to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, see the section titled “Risk Factors,” generally, and “Risk Factors—The impacts and potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to create significant uncertainty for our business, financial condition and results of operations,” specifically, under Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report, which is incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report.

Revenue decreased $1.2 million, or 1%, to $114.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. Instruments revenue, which includes sales of our Chromium instruments and Visium CytAssist, decreased $2.1 million, or 13%, to $14.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to lower volume of instruments sold. Consumables revenue increased $0.8 million, or 1%, to $97.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 primarily driven by growth due to increased usage by existing customers and the addition of new customers, largely offset by decreased

demand due to limited laboratory productivity arising from the continued impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, including lockdowns in China, delayed purchases by customers impacted by a previously disclosed process breakdown in our logistics cold-chain, execution challenges and unfavorable currency fluctuations.
Revenue increased $7.4 million, or 3%, to $229.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. Instruments revenue increased $1.2 million, or 4%, to $29.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to higher average selling prices for Chromium X series instruments compared to Chromium Controller instruments, partially offset by lower volume of instruments sold. Consumables revenue increased $5.7 million, or 3%, to $195.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily driven by growth due to increased usage by existing customers and the addition of new customers, largely offset by decreased demand due to limited laboratory productivity arising from the continued impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, including lockdowns in China, delayed purchases by customers impacted by a previously disclosed process breakdown in our logistics cold-chain, execution challenges and unfavorable currency fluctuations.

Cost of revenue increased $22.8 million, or 464%, to $27.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by a one-time reversal of $14.7 million of accrued royalties resulting from the Settlement and Patent Cross License Agreement (the "Bio-Rad Agreement") with Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. during the three months ended June 30, 2021, $4.1 million from higher manufacturing costs due to increased sales and higher costs of newly introduced products, $1.7 million of higher royalty expenses, $1.5 million of higher inventory scrap and excess and obsolete inventory charges, and $0.9 million of higher warranty costs.
Cost of revenue increased $31.2 million, or 142%, to $53.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by a one-time reversal of $14.7 million of accrued royalties resulting from the Bio-Rad Agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2021, $11.3 million from higher manufacturing costs due to increased sales and higher costs of newly introduced products, $3.1 million of higher royalty expenses, $1.8 million of higher inventory scrap and excess and obsolete inventory charges, and $1.2 million of higher warranty costs, partially offset by a decrease of $1.0 million of costs related to ramping our second manufacturing facility.
We expect our gross margin will trend slightly lower during the year due in part to change in product mix with newly introduced products and the impacts of inflation and increased supply chain costs.

Research and development expenses increased $17.3 million, or 32%, to $70.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in personnel expenses of $11.0 million, including $3.4 million in stock-based compensation expense, $3.6 million of higher allocated costs for facilities and information technology to support operational expansion, laboratory materials, supplies and expensed equipment of
18
$2.0 million used to support our research and development efforts, and higher consulting and professional services of $0.6 million for product development.
Research and development expenses increased $39.5 million, or 41%, to $134.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in personnel expenses of $22.4 million, including $7.9 million in stock-based compensation expense, laboratory materials, supplies and expensed equipment of $8.1 million used to support our research and development efforts, $6.8 million of higher allocated costs for facilities and information technology to support operational expansion, higher consulting and professional services of $1.1 million for product development, and $0.9 million of higher depreciation.
We expect our research development activities and expenditures to continue to increase in the third quarter of 2022 and beyond as we increase our investment to support new and existing projects.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $10.6 million, or 15%, to $79.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by increased personnel expenses of $15.2 million, including $5.3 million in stock-based compensation expense, $2.3 million of marketing expenses and $0.6 million of higher allocated costs for facilities and information technology to support operational expansion, partially offset by decreased outside legal expenses of $6.0 million and $1.6 million of consulting and professional services.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $20.4 million, or 16%, to $146.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by increased personnel expenses of $29.8 million, including $10.2 million in stock-based compensation expense, $3.0 million of higher marketing expenses related to conferences and seminars, and $1.9 million of higher allocated costs for facilities and information technology to support operational expansion, partially offset by decreased outside legal expenses of $12.6 million and $2.4 million of consulting and professional services.
On August 3, 2022, to decrease our costs and maintain a streamlined organization to support our business, we committed to a reduction in force that is expected to result in the termination of approximately 8% of our global workforce. In connection with the reduction in force, we currently estimate that we will incur between approximately $5 million and $6 million of costs, consisting primarily of cash severance costs, which we expect to recognize in the third quarter of 2022. We expect to benefit from the cost savings arising from the reduction in work force commencing from the fourth quarter of 2022. The estimates of costs and expenses that we expect to incur in connection with the workforce reduction are subject to a number of assumptions and actual results may differ materially. We may also incur additional costs not currently contemplated due to events that may occur as a result of, or that are associated with, the workforce reduction.

Interest income increased by $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. Interest income increased by $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increases for the three and six ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the corresponding prior year periods were primarily due to interest income generated from our cash equivalents and marketable securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and an increase in interest rates.
Interest expense decreased by $0.1 million, or 48% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. Interest expense decreased by $0.2 million, or 45% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decreases for the three and six ended June 30, 2022 were driven primarily by lower interest expense recognized on accrued license fees.
19
The change in other (expense) income, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was driven by realized and unrealized losses from foreign currency rate measurement fluctuations.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company's provision for income taxes was $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The provision for income taxes consists primarily of foreign taxes. Deferred tax assets related to our domestic operations are fully offset by a valuation allowance.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2022, we had $274.2 million in cash and cash equivalents which were primarily held in U.S. bank deposit accounts and money market funds, $225.5 million in marketable securities and an accumulated deficit of $970.2 million. Short-term restricted cash of $0.5 million and long-term restricted cash of $7.1 million primarily serves as collateral for outstanding letters of credit for facilities. We have generated negative cumulative cash flows from operations since inception through the six months ended June 30, 2022, and we have generated losses from operations since inception as reflected in our accumulated deficit of $970.2 million.
We currently anticipate making aggregate capital expenditures of between approximately $140 million and $150 million during the next 12 months, approximately two thirds of which we expect to incur for construction costs of the facilities on our property in Pleasanton, California, as well as other global facilities and equipment to be used for manufacturing and research and development.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors including our revenue growth rate, research and development efforts, investments in or acquisitions of complementary or enhancing technologies or businesses, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the timing and extent of additional capital expenditures to invest in existing and new facilities, the expansion of sales and marketing and international activities and the introduction of new products. We take a long-term view in growing and scaling our business and we regularly review acquisition and investment opportunities, and we may in the future enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in businesses, real estate, services and technologies, including intellectual property rights, and any such acquisitions or investments could significantly increase our capital needs. We regularly review opportunities that meet our long-term growth objectives.
While we expect to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future due to the investments we intend to make, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and cash generated from sales of our products will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. However, our liquidity assumptions may prove to be incorrect, and we could exhaust our available financial resources sooner than we currently expect. We intend to continue to evaluate market conditions and may in the future pursue additional sources of funding, such as mortgage or other financing, to further enhance our financial position and to execute our business strategy. In addition, should prevailing economic, financial, business or other factors adversely affect our ability to meet our operating cash requirements, we could be required to obtain funding though traditional or alternative sources of financing. We cannot be certain that additional funds would be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all.
Sources of liquidity
Since our inception, we have financed our operations and capital expenditures primarily through sales of convertible preferred stock and common stock, revenue from sales of our products and the incurrence of indebtedness. In September 2019, we completed our initial public offering for aggregate proceeds of $410.8 million, net of offering costs, underwriter discounts and commissions. In September 2020, we completed a public offering of our Class A common stock for aggregate proceeds of $482.3 million, after deducting offering costs, underwriting discounts and commissions.

Operating activities
The net cash used in operating activities of $37.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a net loss of $106.9 million, net cash outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities of $10.1 million, partially offset by stock-based compensation expense of $62.4 million, depreciation and amortization of $12.7 million, amortization of leased right-of-use assets of $3.7 million and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on marketable securities, net of $0.5 million. The net cash outflow from operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase in inventory of $11.1 million due to the timing of inventory purchases including advance purchases of inventory due to anticipated demand and supply chain management, a decrease in accrued compensation and other related benefits of $8.0 million due to the prior year annual bonus payments, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $5.3 million and a decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $4.9 million due to the timing of payments including license fees. The net cash outflow from operating assets and liabilities was partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $10.3 million due to timing of vendor payments, a decrease in accounts receivable of $9.0 million due to timing of collections and an increase in deferred revenue of $1.7 million.
The net cash used in operating activities of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was due primarily to a net loss of $22.6 million, net cash outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities of $35.2 million, partially offset by adjustments for stock-based compensation expense of $43.1 million, depreciation and amortization of $9.6 million and amortization of leased right-of-use assets of $4.0 million. The net cash outflow from operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in accrued contingent liabilities of $14.7 million resulting from the Bio-Rad Agreement, an increase in inventory of $14.2 million due to the timing of inventory purchases including advance purchases of inventory due to anticipated demand, an increase in accounts receivable of $7.8 million due to timing of collections, a decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $6.5 million due to the timing of payments including license fees, a decrease in other noncurrent liabilities of $4.3 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1.1 million and a decrease of $3.2 million due to payment of operating lease liabilities. The net cash outflow from operating assets and liabilities was partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $9.7 million due to timing of vendor payments and an increase in accrued compensation and other related benefits of $5.7 million.
Investing activities
The net cash used in investing activities of $285.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 was due to purchases of marketable securities of $271.5 million and property and equipment of $55.4 million, partially offset by proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities of $32.7 million and $9.1 million, respectively.
The net cash used in investing activities of $58.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was due to purchases of property and equipment of $53.4 million including the purchase of land for $28.1 million and cash paid for the acquisition of Tetramer Shop of $5.5 million.
Financing activities
The net cash provided by financing activities of $8.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily from proceeds of $14.2 million from the issuance of common stock from the exercise of stock options and employee stock purchase plan purchases partially offset by payments on financing arrangements of $5.4 million.
The net cash provided by financing activities of $19.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily from proceeds of $24.7 million from the issuance of common stock from the exercise of stock options and employee stock purchase plan purchases partially offset by payments on financing arrangements of $5.0 million.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022. For additional information, please refer to Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
For financial market risks related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, reference is made to Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” contained in Part II of our Annual Report. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2021 except as shown below.
Interest Rate Risk
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we invested in debt securities which were designated as available-for-sale. Our marketable securities as of June 30, 2022 was $225.5 million.
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio comprising of marketable securities. We invest in a number of securities including corporate bonds, U.S. agency notes, asset-backed securities, commercial paper, U.S. treasuries and money market funds. We attempt to ensure the safety and preservation of our invested principal funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. We mitigate default risk by investing in high grade investment securities. The fair market value of our fixed rate securities may be adversely impacted by increases in interest rates while income earned may decline as a result of decreases in interest rates. A hypothetical 100 basis-point (one percentage point) increase or decrease in interest rates compared to rates at June 30, 2022 would have affected the fair value of our investment portfolio by approximately $2.3 million.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2022.
22
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was not any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are regularly subject to lawsuits, claims, arbitration proceedings, administrative actions and other legal and regulatory proceedings involving intellectual property disputes, commercial disputes, competition and other matters, and we may become subject to additional types of lawsuits, claims, arbitration proceedings, administrative actions, government investigations and legal and regulatory proceedings in the future and as our business grows, including proceedings related to product liability or our acquisitions, securities issuances or our business practices, including public disclosures about our business. Our success depends in part on our non-infringement of the patents or proprietary rights of third parties. In the past, third parties have asserted and may in the future assert that we are employing their proprietary technology without authorization. We have been involved in multiple patent litigation matters and other proceedings in the past and we expect that given the litigious history of our industry and the high profile of operating as a public company, third parties may claim that our products infringe their intellectual property rights. We have also initiated litigation to defend our technology including technology developed through our significant investments in research and development. It is our general policy not to out-license our patents but to protect our sole right to own and practice them. There are inherent uncertainties in these legal matters, some of which are beyond management’s control, making the ultimate outcomes difficult to predict.
Nanostring
On May 6, 2021, we filed suit against Nanostring Technologies, Inc.
