Exact Sciences Announces Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

Fourth quarter and 2024 highlights
Total fourth quarter revenue of $713 million, an increase of 10%, or 11% on a core revenue basis, with Screening revenue of $553 million and Precision Oncology revenue of $161 million
Total 2024 revenue of $2.76 billion, an increase of 10%, or 11% on a core revenue basis, with Screening revenue of $2.10 billion and Precision Oncology revenue of $655 million
Plans to launch three new cancer tests in 2025: Cologuard PlusTM, next-generation colorectal cancer screening test, OncodetectTM, molecular residual disease test, and CancerguardTM, multi-cancer screening test

MADISON, Wis., Feb. 19, 2025 — Exact Sciences Corp. (Nasdaq: EXAS), a leading provider of cancer screening and diagnostic tests, today announced that the Company generated revenue of $713 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 and $2.76 billion for the full year of 2024, both ended December 31, 2024.
“The Exact Sciences team is off to a good start in 2025, building on the momentum we created in the fourth quarter,” said Kevin Conroy, Chairman and CEO of Exact Sciences. “This year is on track to be the most productive in company history, with continued execution from our core business and the launch of three innovative cancer tests. This will power years of growth and profitability, deepen our leadership in diagnostics, and help eradicate cancer by preventing it, detecting it earlier, and guiding personalized treatment."

Fourth quarter 2024 financial results
For the three-month period ended December 31, 2024, as compared to the same period of 2023 (where applicable):
Total revenue was $713 million, an increase of 10%, or 11% on a core revenue basis
Screening revenue was $553 million, an increase of 14%
Precision Oncology revenue was $161 million, an increase of 0.4%, or 2% on a core revenue basis
Gross margin was 69% and adjusted gross margin was 72%
Impairment charges were $838 million, primarily reflecting changes in external factors related to the in-process research and development asset acquired as part of the Thrive acquisition
Net loss was $865 million, or $4.67 per share, compared to a net loss of $49.8 million, or $0.27 per share
Adjusted EBITDA was $75 million, an increase of $26 million, and adjusted EBITDA margin was 11%, an increase of nearly 300 basis points
Operating cash flow was $47 million and free cash flow was $11 million in the fourth quarter, and full-year 2024 operating cash flow was $211 million and free cash flow was $75 million
Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $1.04 billion at the end of the quarter
Screening primarily includes laboratory service revenue from Cologuard® tests and PreventionGenetics. Precision Oncology includes laboratory service revenue from global Oncotype DX® and therapy selection tests.
Platform and pipeline advancements
In the fourth quarter, Exact Sciences secured favorable Medicare pricing for the Cologuard Plus test, its next-generation colon cancer screening test. The Cologuard Plus test detects cancers and precancerous polyps with even greater sensitivity than the



Cologuard test while reducing false positives by nearly 40 percent. This advancement enhances the Company’s screening capabilities and reinforces its commitment to delivering high-quality, non-invasive options for patients. The Company remains on-track to launch Cologuard Plus with Medicare coverage and guideline inclusion in the second quarter of 2025.
In the fourth quarter, the Company shared new evidence from the ASCEND 2 study supporting Cancerguard, its blood-based multi-cancer screening test. The data showed at a 98.5% specificity, overall sensitivity excluding breast and prostate cancer was 62.3%. Sensitivity was 67.1% for the six most aggressive cancers (pancreas, esophagus, liver, lung, stomach, and ovary). This highlights the potential of a multi-omic test to improve early cancer detection. Additionally, Exact Sciences presented new modeling data that estimated adding multi-cancer screening to standard-of-care screening could reduce cancer mortality by 17% over 10 years. These analyses will support the planned launch of CancerguardTM EX, Exact Sciences’ MCED laboratory-developed test, in the second half of 2025. Exact Sciences will bring this test to patients through its large screening and precision oncology commercial organization and unique ExactNexusTM technology platform.
In January 2025, Exact Sciences presented data in the Journal of Surgical Oncology demonstrating the clinical strength of the Oncodetect test, its molecular residual disease and recurrence monitoring test. Results from a well-designed study of monitored colon cancer patients found those with a positive Oncodetect test were 50 times more likely to recur than those with a negative result. The study further showed Oncodetect identifies residual disease up to 10 months earlier than imaging, the current standard of care. Findings from a second clinical validation study also demonstrated promising performance of Oncodetect as an MRD test. The Company recently submitted results for reimbursement in colorectal cancer and expects to launch the Oncodetect test in the second quarter of 2025.

Non-GAAP disclosure

In addition to the Company's financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides non-GAAP measures that it determines to be useful in evaluating its operating performance and liquidity. The Company presents the following non-GAAP measures:

Core revenue — Core revenue is calculated to adjust for recent acquisitions and divestitures, COVID-19 testing revenue and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Revenue from recent acquisitions is adjusted for the 12 months following acquisition when the periods are not comparable. To exclude the impact of change in foreign currency exchange rates from the prior period under comparison, the Company converts the current period non-U.S. dollar denominated revenue using the prior year comparative period exchange rates.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin — The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted for interest expense, income tax expense or benefit, depreciation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, investment income or loss, and certain other items which include significant non-cash items and other charges or benefits resulting from transactions or events that are highly variable, significant in size, and that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing or future business operations. These items are discussed in more detail below in the tables captioned “U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation”. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue.

Adjusted gross profit, adjusted research and development expenses, adjusted sales and marketing expenses, adjusted general and administrative expenses, adjusted loss from operations, adjusted net loss before tax, adjusted income tax expense (benefit), adjusted net loss, and adjusted earnings per share — The Company refers to various “adjusted” amounts or measures on an “adjusted” basis, which exclude the impact of amortization of intangible assets and certain charges or benefits resulting from transactions or events that are highly variable, significant in size, and that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing or future business operations. These items are described in more detail below in the tables captioned “U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation”. The Company also presents certain of these adjusted measures as a percentage of revenue including adjusted gross margin.




Free cash flow — The Company defines free cash flow as net cash used in or provided by operating activities, reduced by purchases of property, plant and equipment. Management uses free cash flow as a liquidity measure.

Management believes that presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides supplemental information useful to investors in understanding our underlying operating results and trends. Non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability of the Company's operating results across reporting periods. Management uses this non-GAAP financial information to establish budgets, manage the Company's business, and set incentive and compensation arrangements. Free cash flow provides useful information to management and investors since it measures our ability to generate cash from business operations. Non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental information purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For example, adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets although such measures include the revenue associated with the acquisitions. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA and other adjusted operating result metrics exclude a number of expense items that are included in net loss. As a result, positive adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, or adjusted earnings per share may be achieved while a significant net loss persists. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables captioned “U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation.” The Company presents certain forward-looking statements about the Company's future financial performance that include non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures include adjustments like stock-based compensation, acquisition and integration costs including gains and losses on contingent consideration, and other significant charges or gains that are difficult to predict for future periods because the nature of the adjustments pertain to events that have not yet occurred. Additionally, management does not forecast many of the excluded items for internal use. Information reconciling forward-looking non-GAAP measures to U.S. GAAP measures is therefore not available without unreasonable effort and is not provided. The occurrence, timing, and amount of any of the items excluded from GAAP to calculate non-GAAP could significantly impact the Company's GAAP results.

Fourth quarter conference call & webcast

About the Cologuard and Cologuard Plus tests
Developed in collaboration with Mayo Clinic, the Cologuard and Cologuard Plus tests are non-invasive colorectal cancer (CRC) screening options for the 110 million U.S. adults ages 45 or older who are at average risk for the disease.

The Cologuard test revolutionized CRC screening by detecting specific DNA markers and blood associated with cancer and precancer in stool, allowing patients to use the test at home without special preparation or time off. It is covered by Medicare and included in national screening guidelines from both the American Cancer Society (2018) and the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (2021). Since its launch in 2014, the Cologuard test has been used to screen for CRC 18 million times.

Building on this success, the FDA-approved Cologuard Plus test raises the performance bar even further and features novel biomarkers, improved laboratory processes, and enhanced sample stability. The Cologuard Plus test is expected to reduce false positives by nearly 40%, to help minimize unnecessary follow-up colonoscopies. Both tests demonstrate Exact Sciences’ commitment to improving CRC screening access and outcomes. Exact Sciences expects to launch the Cologuard Plus test with Medicare coverage and guideline inclusion in 2025.

About the Oncodetect test
Molecular residual disease (MRD) refers to the presence of tumor-specific DNA in the body. These fragments of genetic information, known as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), are shed into the bloodstream by tumors, and their presence may indicate that cancer is present . Exact Sciences’ MRD offering leverages our in-house capabilities in whole exome sequencing to offer a tumor-informed MRD test for a personalized approach to detecting and monitoring residual cancer in patients with solid tumors. By identifying somatic genomic alterations in tumor DNA and detecting a subset in ctDNA from blood, the Oncodetect test may enable the detection of ctDNA before, during, and after treatment. This critical information can guide therapy decisions and monitor for cancer recurrence.

About the Cancerguard test
The Cancerguard test, currently in development, is designed to detect multiple cancers in their earliest stages from a single blood draw. Building upon decades of research, Exact Sciences intends to harness the additive sensitivity of multiple biomarker classes to detect more cancers in earlier stages. The Cancerguard test will utilize a streamlined and standardized imaging-based diagnostic pathway, which may result in fewer follow-up procedures. The test is being developed to provide high specificity to help minimize false positives while detecting multiple cancers, including those with the biggest toll on human health. These



features describe current development goals. The Cancerguard test has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or any other national regulatory authority. To learn more, visit http://www.exactsciences.com/cancerguard.
