Fourth Quarter and Recent Accomplishments and Highlights

Dermatology

  • In November, the Company announced new data showing how its DecisionDx-SCC test can provide objective, independent and significant risk-stratification for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) tumors with uncertainty in differentiation status. The data were shared in an oral presentation given at the American Society of Dermatopathology (ASDP) 59th Annual Meeting by Sarah Estrada, M.D., dermatopathologist with Affiliated Dermatology in Scottsdale, Arizona. These data demonstrate how DecisionDx-SCC can significantly stratify the risk of metastasis in high-risk SCC patients with an ambiguous tumor differentiation status. Additionally, the study shows that incorporating the test’s results into clinical SCC risk assessments improves risk-stratification, which enhances current patient management decisions to improve patient outcomes. See the Company’s news release from November 15, 2022, for more information.
  • In October, the Company announced the publication of real-world clinical utility data in Cancer Investigation showing that clinicians are ordering DecisionDx-SCC for the intended high-risk SCC patient population and that use of the test’s results can lead to risk-aligned changes in patient management strategies. The paper, titled “Real-World Evidence Shows Clinicians Appropriately Use the Prognostic 40-GEP Test for High-Risk Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC) Patients,” evaluated metrics from one year of clinical DecisionDx-SCC orders and the test’s impact on real-world risk assessments and treatment decisions. Overall, the study data support the clinical impact that DecisionDx-SCC’s personalized, risk-stratification results can have on patient management plans, including helping avoid the overtreatment of patients and guiding risk-appropriate disease management decisions, alongside traditional risk factor assessments. See the Company’s news release from October 31, 2022, for more information.
  • In October, the Company announced new data from two studies demonstrating the potential of DecisionDx-Melanoma and DecisionDx-UM to accurately stratify risk of death from melanoma (cutaneous melanoma (CM) and uveal melanoma (UM), respectively) in a group of real-world, unselected and prospectively tested patients. The studies are part of the Company’s ongoing collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to link DecisionDx-Melanoma and DecisionDx-UM clinical testing data with data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Program’s registries on CM and UM cases, respectively. The data were shared in poster presentations at the 19th International Congress of the Society for Melanoma Research (SMR) in Edinburgh, United Kingdom. See the Company’s news release from October 27, 2022, for more information.
  • In October, the Company announced new data from UTILISE (Clinical Utility and Health Outcomes Study), a prospective, multi-center, clinical utility study of DecisionDx-SCC, designed to capture the real-world impact of DecisionDx-SCC test results on the management of patients with SCC and one or more risk factors. This first analysis showed that DecisionDx-SCC test results positively impacted patient management in over 80% of the patients enrolled in the study, consistent with previous clinical utility studies demonstrating that the test’s results can impact risk-appropriate changes in patient management plans, within established guidelines. This data from the UTILISE study was presented during the 2022 Fall Clinical Dermatology Conference through a poster titled, “A prospective clinical utility study demonstrates that physicians use the 40-gene expression profile (40-GEP) to guide clinical management decisions for Medicare-eligible patients with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC).” See the Company’s news release from October 24, 2022, for more information.
  • In October, the Company announced new data from its prospective, multicenter DECIDE study in which DecisionDx-Melanoma test results influenced 85% of clinicians’ decisions regarding the sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) surgical procedure, demonstrating the role of the test’s results in guiding risk-aligned patient management decisions. When DecisionDx-Melanoma test results influenced for SLNB, the procedure was performed in 92% of the cases in the study; similarly, when the test result influenced against SLNB, the decision was made to forego SLNB in 70% of cases. This data indicates that the test’s results in conjunction with current guidelines can guide risk-aligned clinical decision-making regarding the SLNB surgical procedure. See the Company’s news release from October 20, 2022, for more information.

Gastroenterology

  • In November, the Company announced that the Accreditation Committee of the College of American Pathologists (CAP) had accredited its clinical laboratory facility in Pittsburgh. This achievement followed an on-site inspection as part of the CAP’s Laboratory Accreditation Program. Recognized by the U.S. federal government as being equal to or more stringent than its own inspection program, CAP accreditation is awarded to facilities that meet the highest standards of quality in laboratory services. Once achieved, on-site inspections occur every two years to assess ongoing compliance with the CAP accreditation program requirements. Castle acquired its laboratory in Pittsburgh through the acquisition of Cernostics, Inc. in December 2021, and subsequently initiated ongoing process improvements and laboratory expansion efforts. With this accreditation, all of Castle’s laboratories are now CAP accredited, reflecting the Company’s commitment to high-quality standards and excellence in patient care. See the Company’s news release from November 21, 2022, for more information.
  • In October, the Company announced new data showing that the use of TissueCypher Barrett’s Esophagus test results can significantly improve management decisions for Barrett’s esophagus (BE) patients with low-grade dysplasia (LGD) to improve health outcomes. Overall, the study results show that TissueCypher may be used to standardize the management of BE patients with LGD to improve health outcomes, by helping ensure that patients at a high risk of progression receive earlier interventions and by potentially reducing unnecessary use of endoscopic eradication therapy (EET) and endoscopies for lower risk patients. See the Company’s news release from October 25, 2022, for more information.

Uveal Melanoma

  • In November, the Company announced the publication of a study completed in collaboration with the Melanoma Research Foundation (MRF) in which most patients diagnosed with uveal melanoma (UM) indicated their desire for prognostic testing at diagnosis, reported finding value in their test result and experienced lower decision regret, regardless of whether their test result indicated that their UM tumor was at a high or low risk of metastasis. The study, titled “Uveal melanoma patient attitudes towards prognostic testing using gene expression profiling,” was published in Melanoma Management. See the Company’s news release from November 17, 2022, for more information.

Corporate

  • In November, the Company was named a Houston Chronicle Top Workplace for the second year in a row. More than 70,000 employees from 4,966 companies in the Houston metro area participated in the nomination process, but only 200 companies were named as 2022 Top Workplaces, including Castle. The Top Workplaces program starts with capturing employee feedback on what matters most about a company’s culture through an anonymous survey. The survey measures fifteen drivers of company culture that are critical to an organization’s success, as well as other insights related to a company’s leadership and employee engagement. See the Company’s news release from November 14, 2022, for more information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (UNAUDITED)

In this release, we use the metrics of Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures and are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Adjusted Revenues and Adjusted Gross Margin reflect adjustments to net revenues to exclude changes in variable consideration related to test reports delivered in previous periods but not recorded as revenues until a subsequent period. Adjusted Gross Margin further excludes acquisition-related intangible asset amortization. Adjusted Operating Cash Flow excludes the effects of repayments to Medicare of COVID-19 government relief advancements to healthcare providers. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from net loss interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration, and acquisition-related transaction costs.

We use Adjusted Revenues, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Adjusted EBITDA internally because we believe these metrics provide useful supplemental information in assessing our revenue and cash flow performance reported in accordance with GAAP, respectively. We believe that Adjusted Revenues, when used in conjunction with our test report volume information, facilitates investors’ analysis of our current-period revenue performance and average selling price performance by excluding the effects of revenue adjustments related to test reports delivered in prior periods, since these adjustments may not be indicative of the current or future performance of our business. We believe that providing Adjusted Revenues may also help facilitate comparisons to our historical periods. Adjusted Gross Margin is calculated using Adjusted Revenues and therefore excludes the impact of revenue adjustments related to test reports delivered in prior periods, which we believe is useful to investors as described above. We further exclude acquisition-related intangible asset amortization in the calculation of Adjusted Gross Margin. We believe that excluding acquisition-related intangible asset amortization may facilitate gross margin comparisons to historical periods and may be useful in assessing current-period performance without regard to the historical accounting valuations of intangible assets, which are applicable only to tests we acquired rather than internally developed. We believe Adjusted Operating Cash Flow is also useful to investors as a supplement to GAAP measures in the assessment of our cash flow performance by removing the effects of COVID-19 government relief payment activity, which we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operations. We believe Adjusted EBITDA may enhance an evaluation of our operating performance because it excludes the impact of prior decisions made about capital investment, financing, investing and certain expenses we believe are not indicative of our ongoing performance, such as acquisition-related transaction costs. However, these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when the same or similarly titled terms are used to identify such measures, limiting their usefulness for comparative purposes.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or used as substitutes for net revenues, gross margin, net cash (used in) provided by operating activities or net loss reported in accordance with GAAP; should be considered in conjunction with our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP; have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; are unaudited; 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 we may exclude for purposes of these non-GAAP financial measures, and we may in the future cease to exclude items that we have historically excluded for purposes of these non-GAAP financial measures. Likewise, we may determine to modify the nature of adjustments to arrive at these non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions of non-GAAP financial measures, the non-GAAP financial measure as used by us in this press release and the accompanying reconciliation tables have limits in their usefulness to investors and may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables at the end of this release.

________________________

1.

We received an advance payment of $8.3 million from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Service (CMS), for which recoupment has commenced in April 2021. We recorded the receipt of the payment as a liability on our balance sheet and, in accordance with GAAP, it was included in net cash provided by (used in) operating activities in the period received. We have excluded receipt of the advance payment from adjusted operating cash flow, but as claims were submitted for reimbursement and applied against this balance, we included the advance payment in adjusted operating cash flow to the extent that Medicare claims submitted for reimbursement were applied to the balance.

2.

We received a one-time payment of $1.9 million in relief funds automatically allocated to Medicare providers under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
