  Content	Bionano Genomics, Inc. (Nasdaq: BNGO) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024. Our results in the third quarter reflect improving momentum for OGM utilization and sales of flowcells, despite overall revenues coming in below our expectations, again driven by a small number of system orders taking longer than expected to come through. Importantly, cash burn for the quarter was significantly lower than the prior year period, which has been a consistent trend now for several quarters due to our reorganization plan to decrease expenses and is a key element in our shift toward securing revenue and growth from our installed base of customers using OGM and VIA software and away from aggressively growing the installed base, which proved to be costly in the constrained environment for capital expenditures in the market. As a result of the restructuring, we have taken a number of charges, which elevated operating expense, but a substantial amount of that comprises one-time non-cash charges we don't expect to see to the same degree going forward,” commented Erik Holmlin, PhD, president and chief executive officer of Bionano. “Indeed, our disciplined and systematic approach to mitigating operational expenses and cash burn has been painful at times, but we believe it is necessary. I am proud of the team's execution to reduce the overall cash needs of the business as we prepare for new opportunities in the future." Q3 2024 Company Highlights CPT code implementation and pricing announcement on schedule following the category 1 CPT code approval by the American Medical Association (AMA) in May 2024. The new CPT Code is for the use of OGM in cytogenomic genome-wide analysis to detect structural and copy number variations related to hematological malignancies. The final Clinical Lab Fee Schedule (CLFS) for 2025 is expected to publish before year end. Announced a registered direct offering and concurrent private placement of clinical milestone-linked Series A and Series B warrants: Upfront gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $10.0 million , before deducting the placement agent's fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company; funds will be used for general corporate purposes. Potential additional gross proceeds of up to $20.0 million upon the cash exercise (at an exercise price of $0.571 per share and subject to stockholder approval) in full of the Series A and Series B warrants to purchase an aggregate of 35,026,272 shares. Adjournment of Special Shareholder Meeting due to lack of Quorum The Special Meeting will reconvene at 10 a.m. (PT) on November 27, 2024 in hopes of reaching the quorum requirements for a meeting. As of October 30 th, approximately 2.2 million additional votes were needed to reach a quorum. Announced Publication of First Multi-Site Study to Analyze the Utility of OGM in Multiple Myeloma The study conducted by researchers at University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and The Johns Hopkins Hospital, researchers concurrently analyzed 45 PCN samples using karyotype (KT), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), OGM and next-generation sequencing (NGS). OGM uniquely identified complex genomic rearrangements that are associated with cancer proliferation and progression, resulting in a change in prognostication beyond that indicated by traditional cytogenetic analysis in 18% of cases. In at least five cases (11%), OGM's unique findings provided precise information to predict response to target therapies like BCMA monoclonal antibody, CAR-T, or GPRC5D targeted therapies, which may have therapeutic implications. The study results highlight OGM's ability to provide researchers with a highly sensitive, accurate genome-wide analysis that can lead to a more comprehensive understanding of genetic subtypes in PCN when compared with FISH and KT. Installed base of OGM systems totaled 368 at the end of the third quarter of 2024 , which represents a 22% increase over the 301 installed systems reported at the end of the third quarter of 2023. 7,835 nanochannel array flowcells sold during the third quarter of 2024 , which represents a 27% increase over the 6,176 flowcells sold during the third quarter of 2023. Q3 2024 Financial Results Total revenue for the third quarter of 2024 was $6.1 million , a decrease of 35% compared to the third quarter of 2023. Revenues included $6.6 million in sales of core products and software offset by a $0.5 million write-down of aged receivables from Bionano Laboratories clinical service offerings, which were discontinued in March of 2024. The write-down was treated as a reversal of revenue. GAAP gross margin for the third quarter of 2024 was (139)%, compared to 30% for the third quarter of 2023. Third quarter 2024 non-GAAP gross margin was 26%, compared to 32% for the third quarter of 2023. Third quarter 2024 non-GAAP gross margin excludes $82,000 in stock-based compensation, $139,000 of restructuring expense, and $9.8 million of impairment and disposal of reagent rentals and inventory. Third quarter 2023 GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation can be found in the reconciliation table accompanying this press release. Third quarter 2024 GAAP operating expense was $35.5 million, and $16.1 million on a non-GAAP basis, which is a decrease of 69% and 49%, respectively, from the third quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP operating expense in the third quarter of 2024 excludes restructuring costs, stock-based compensation, and other adjustments as detailed in the reconciliation table accompanying this press release. Third quarter 2023 GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation can be found in the same table in this release. Cash, cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities, and restricted cash were $23.4 million as of September 30, 2024 . As of September 30, 2024, $11.4 million was subject to certain restrictions. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate principal amount of senior secured convertible debentures outstanding was $17.0 million. Bionano raised net proceeds of approximately $0.1million from ATM sales during the third quarter. An additional $1.2 million was raised in net proceeds from ATM sales subsequent to the end of the third quarter 2024. Recent Highlights Announced closing of an additional $3.0 million registered direct offering Upfront gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $3.0 million , before deducting the placement agent's fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company; funds will be used for general corporate purposes. Potential additional gross proceeds of up to $6.0 million upon the cash exercise (at an exercise price of $0.3039 per share and subject to stockholder approval) in full of the Series C and Series D warrants to purchase an aggregate of 19,762,226 shares. Recent Peer-reviewed highlighted applications of OGM in blood cancers Publication in Blood Cancer Journal by a group of researchers at the Korea College of Medicine in South Korea showing that optical genome mapping (OGM) can resolve rearrangements in the MYC gene in multiple myeloma (MM), which represent highly actionable biomarkers in cancer. Data demonstrated the potential for wider adoption and use of OGM across all blood cancers as an alternative to traditional methods like KT and FISH.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement Bionano's financial results reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company has provided non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating expense in this press release, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP operating expense excludes from GAAP reported operating expense the following components as detailed in the reconciliation table accompanying this press release: costs directly attributable to the company restructuring, stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, change in fair value of contingent consideration and certain deal-related costs. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes from GAAP reported gross margin stock-based compensation and certain restructuring expense as detailed in the reconciliation table accompanying this press release. Bionano believes that non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating expense are useful to investors and analysts as a supplement to its financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP for analyzing operating performance and identifying operating trends in its business. Bionano uses non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating expense internally to facilitate period-to-period comparisons and analysis of its operating performance in order to understand, manage and evaluate its business and to make operating decisions. Accordingly, Bionano believes these measures allow for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics it uses in assessing its own operating performance and making operating decisions. These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures; should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP; have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, from time to time in the future, there may be other items that the Company may exclude for purposes of its non-GAAP financial measures; and the Company may in the future cease to exclude items that it has historically excluded for purposes of its non-GAAP financial measures. Likewise, the Company may determine to modify the nature of its adjustments to arrive at its non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions of non-GAAP financial measures, the non-GAAP financial measures as used by Bionano in this press release and the accompanying reconciliation table have limits in its usefulness to investors and may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating expense to gross margin and operating expense reported in accordance with GAAP, please refer to the financial tables accompanying this release.
