incorporated in the state of Delaware on June&nbsp;20, 2003. The Company&#146;s headquarters are located in Seattle, Washington. The Company&#146;s technology enables direct detection, identification and quantification of individual target molecules
in a biological sample by attaching a unique color coded fluorescent reporter to each target molecule of interest. The Company markets its proprietary nCounter Analysis System, consisting of instruments and consumables, including its Prosigna Breast
Cancer Assay, to academic, government, biopharmaceutical and clinical laboratory customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company has incurred losses to date and
expects to incur additional losses in the foreseeable future. The Company continues to devote the majority of its resources to the growth of its business in accordance with its business plan. The Company&#146;s activities have been financed
primarily through the sale of equity securities, incurrence of indebtedness and, to a lesser extent, capital leases and other borrowings. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Sales
Agreement</I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On May&nbsp;11, 2015, the Company entered into a sales agreement (the &#147;Sales Agreement&#148;) with Cowen and
Company, LLC (&#147;Cowen&#148;) to sell shares of the Company&#146;s common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $40.0 million, from time to time, through an &#147;at the market&#148; equity offering program under which Cowen will act as
sales agent. Under the Sales Agreement, the Company sets the parameters for the sale of shares, including the number of shares to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, limitation on the number of shares that may be
sold in any one trading day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made. The Sales Agreement provides that Cowen will be entitled to compensation for its services that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 3% of the gross sales price
per share sold through them under the Sales Agreement. The Sales Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the issuance and sale of placement shares equaling sales proceeds of $40.0 million and may be terminated earlier by either the Company or
Cowen upon five days&#146; notice. The Company has no obligation to sell any shares under the Sales Agreement, and may at any time suspend solicitation and offers under the Sales Agreement. On May&nbsp;19, 2015, the Company commenced selling its
common stock through the &#147;at the market&#148; equity offering program under the Sales Agreement. During the three months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015, the Company sold an aggregate of 960,400 shares of the Company&#146;s common stock for total
gross proceeds of $13.0 million. The net proceeds from the sale of the shares, after deducting Cowen&#146;s commission and other expenses of the offering, were approximately $12.5 million. As of June&nbsp;30, 2015, approximately $27.0 million of the
Company&#146;s common stock remained available for sale under the &#147;at the market&#148; equity offering program. As of June&nbsp;30, 2015, the Company&#146;s deferred offering costs balance was $0.1 million. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company recognizes revenue when (1)&nbsp;persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2)&nbsp;delivery has occurred or services have been
rendered, (3)&nbsp;the price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (4)&nbsp;collectability is reasonably assured. The Company generates the majority of its revenue from the sale of products and services. The Company&#146;s products consist of
its proprietary nCounter Analysis Systems and related consumables. Services consist of extended warranties and service fees for assay processing. A delivered product or service is considered to be a separate unit of accounting when it has value to
the customer on a stand-alone basis. Products or services have value on a stand-alone basis if they are sold separately by any vendor or the customer could resell the delivered product. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Instruments, consumables and <I>in vitro</I> diagnostic kits are considered to be separate units of accounting as they are sold separately and
revenue is recognized upon transfer of ownership, which is generally upon shipment. Instrument revenue related to installation and calibration services is recognized when services are rendered by the Company. Such services can also be provided by
the Company&#146;s distribution partners and other third parties. For instruments sold solely to run Prosigna assays, training must be provided prior to instrument revenue recognition. Instrument revenue from leased instruments is recognized ratably
over the lease term. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Service revenue is recognized when earned, which is generally upon the rendering of the related services. Service
agreements and service fees for assay processing are each considered separate units of accounting as they are sold separately. The Company offers service agreements on its nCounter Analysis Systems for periods ranging from 12 to 36 months after the
end of the standard 12-month warranty period. Service agreements are generally separately priced. Revenue from service agreements is deferred and recognized in income on a straight-line basis over the service period. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For arrangements with multiple deliverables, the Company allocates the agreement consideration at the inception of the agreement to the
deliverables based upon their relative selling prices. To date, selling prices have been established by reference to vendor specific objective evidence based on stand-alone sales transactions for each deliverable.&nbsp;Vendor specific objective
evidence is considered to have been established when a substantial majority of individual sales transactions within the previous 12 month period fall within a reasonably narrow range, which the Company has defined to be plus or minus 15% of the mean
sales price of actual stand-alone sales transactions. The Company uses its best estimate of selling price for individual deliverables when vendor specific objective evidence or third-party evidence is unavailable. Allocated revenue is only
recognized for each deliverable when the revenue recognition criteria have been met. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company enters into collaborative agreements
that may generate upfront fees with subsequent milestone payments that may be earned upon completion of development-related milestones. The Company is able to estimate the total cost of services under the arrangements and recognizes collaboration
revenue using a proportional performance model. Costs incurred to date compared to total expected costs are used to determine proportional performance, as this is considered to be representative of the delivery of outputs under the arrangements.
Revenue recognized at any point in time is limited to cash received and amounts contractually due. Changes in estimates of total expected costs are accounted for prospectively as a change in estimate. From period to period, collaboration revenue can
fluctuate substantially based on the achievement of development-related milestones. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Recent Accounting Pronouncements </I></B></P>

accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In May 2014,
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (&#147;FASB&#148;) issued an accounting standards update entitled &#147;ASU <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">2014-09,</FONT> Revenue from Contracts with Customers.&#148; The standard requires entities to
recognize revenue through the application of a five step model, which includes identification of the contract, identification of the performance obligations, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the
performance obligations, and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. The standard will become effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to
determine the potential impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In June 2014, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled &#147;ASU 2014-12, Compensation &#150; Stock Compensation.&#148; The
standard requires entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a
performance condition. The standard will become effective for the Company for the year beginning January 1, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial

doubt about the entity&#146;s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when

concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash is invested in accordance with the Company&#146;s investment policy, which includes guidelines intended to minimize

customers&#146; credit history or financial position and generally extends credit on account without collateral. The Company has not experienced any significant credit losses to date as a result of credit risk concentration. </P>

agreement under which it may borrow up to $45.0 million, or up to an aggregate of approximately $51.0 million if the Company elects to exercise in full an option to defer payment of a portion of the interest that would accrue on the borrowing under
the term loan agreement. Upon initial closing, the Company borrowed $20.0&nbsp;million, the proceeds of which were primarily used to repay the outstanding balance under a previous credit facility plus a related $1.0 million end of term payment, a
$0.3 million make-whole premium, and interest accrued. The Company incurred and recorded a total charge to interest expense of $1.4 million related to the repayment of its previous credit facility including a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.6
million in the second quarter of 2014. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-right:2%; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In October 2014, the Company borrowed an additional $10.0 million under the term
loan agreement. The original agreement allowed the Company to borrow up to an additional $15.0 million under the agreement no later than May 2015. On April&nbsp;16, 2015, the Company was granted an extension of six months, to November 2015, to
borrow the additional $15.0 million under the agreement, subject to a revenue requirement. All borrowings under the term loan agreement accrue interest at 12.5% annually, payable quarterly, of which 3.5% can be deferred during the first four years
of the term at the Company&#146;s option and paid together with the principal. During 2014, the Company exercised its option to defer payment of the 3.5% accrued interest and is required to pay only the remaining 9% in cash interest for the first
five years of the term. Principal payments are due in four equal installments during the sixth year of the term. The Company has the option to prepay the term loans, in whole or in part, at any time subject to payment of a redemption fee of up to
4%, which declines over the term. The term loan agreement contains customary conditions to borrowings, events of default and negative covenants, including covenants that could limit the Company&#146;s ability to, among other things, incur additional
indebtedness, liens or other encumbrances, make dividends or other distributions; buy, sell or transfer assets; engage in any new line of business; and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. The term loan agreement also includes liquidity
and revenue-based financial covenants. The Company must satisfy certain minimum annual revenue requirements, specifically $55.0&nbsp;million for 2015 with annual increases of $15.0 million for each fiscal year thereafter. If the Company&#146;s
actual revenues are below the minimum annual revenue requirement for any given year, the Company may avoid a related default by generating proceeds from an equity or subordinated debt issuance equal to the shortfall between its actual revenues and
the minimum revenue requirement. The Company was in compliance with its covenants as of June&nbsp;30, 2015. The Company&#146;s obligations under the term loan agreement are collateralized by substantially all of its assets. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In March 2014, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement with Celgene Corporation (&#147;Celgene&#148;) to develop, seek regulatory
approval for, and commercialize a companion diagnostic assay for use in screening patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma. The Company received an upfront payment of $5.8 million upon its delivery of certain information to Celgene, and is
eligible to receive up to $17.0 million in success-based milestone payments related to development and regulatory milestones. The Company will retain all commercial rights to the diagnostic test developed under this collaboration, subject to certain
backup rights granted to Celgene to commercialize the diagnostic test in a particular country if the Company elects to cease distribution or elect not to distribute the diagnostic in such country. Assuming success in the clinical trial process, and
subject to regulatory approval, the Company will market and sell the diagnostic assay and Celgene has agreed to make certain potential commercial payments to the Company in the event sales of the assay do not exceed certain pre-specified minimum
annual revenues during the first three years following regulatory approval. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company achieved and was paid for milestones totaling
$6.0 million during 2014. The process of successfully developing a product candidate, obtaining regulatory approval and ultimately commercializing a product candidate is highly uncertain and the attainment of any additional milestones is therefore
uncertain and difficult to predict. In addition, certain milestones are outside the Company&#146;s control and are dependent on the performance of Celgene and the outcome of a clinical trial and related regulatory processes. Accordingly, the Company
is not able to reasonably estimate when, if at all, any additional milestone payments may be payable to the Company by Celgene. </P>

Celgene agreement of $0.3 million, $1.0 million, $0.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively. At June&nbsp;30, 2015, the Company had recorded $7.8 million of deferred revenue related to the Celgene collaboration, of which $1.7 million is estimated
to be recognized as revenue within one year. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Merck&nbsp;&amp; Co., Inc. </I></B></P>

subsidiary of Merck&nbsp;&amp; Co., Inc. (&#147;Merck&#148;), to develop an assay that will optimize immune-related gene expression signatures and evaluate the potential to predict benefit from Merck&#146;s anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA, in multiple
tumor types. The Company will receive up to $4.0 million in payments and the agreement is expected to be completed within one year. If successful, Merck and the Company intend to negotiate in good faith a separate agreement that would govern and

These statements, like all statements in this report, speak only as of their date, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise these statements in light of future developments. In this report, &#147;we,&#148; &#147;our,&#148; &#147;us,&#148;

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We develop, manufacture and sell robust, intuitive products that unlock scientifically valuable and clinically actionable biologic information
from minute amounts of tissue. Our nCounter Analysis Systems directly profile hundreds of molecules simultaneously using a novel barcoding technology that is powerful enough for use in research, yet simple enough for use in clinical laboratories
worldwide. We market instruments and related consumables to researchers in academic, government, and biopharmaceutical laboratories for use in understanding fundamental biology and the molecular basis of disease and to clinical laboratories and
medical centers for diagnostic use. As of June&nbsp;30, 2015, we have an installed base of over 300 systems, which our customers have used to publish over 800 peer-reviewed papers. As researchers using our systems discover how genomic and proteomic
information can be used to improve clinical decision-making, these discoveries can be translated and validated as diagnostic tests, either using our nCounter Elements reagents or, in certain situations, by developing <I>in vitro</I> diagnostic
assays. For example, our first molecular diagnostic product is the Prosigna Breast Cancer Assay, or Prosigna, which provides an assessment of a patient&#146;s risk of recurrence for breast cancer. In March 2014, we entered into our first companion
diagnostic collaboration to develop an<I> in vitro </I>diagnostic test for a type of lymphoma, to be used to identify which patients are most likely to respond to a particular drug therapy. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We derive a substantial majority of our revenue from the sale of our products to life science researchers, which consist of our nCounter
instruments and related proprietary consumables, which we call CodeSets, nCounter Elements reagents and Master Kits. After buying an nCounter Analysis System, research customers purchase consumables from us for use in their experiments. Our
instruments are designed to work only with our consumable products. Accordingly, as the installed base of our instruments grows, we expect recurring revenue from consumable sales to become an increasingly important driver of our operating results.
We also derive revenue from processing fees related to proof-of-principle studies we conduct for potential customers and extended service contracts for our nCounter Analysis Systems. Additionally, we generate revenue through development
collaborations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We use third-party contract manufacturers to produce the instruments comprising our nCounter Analysis Systems. We
manufacture consumables at our Seattle, Washington facility. This operating model is designed to be capital efficient and to scale efficiently as our product volumes grow. We focus a substantial portion of our resources on developing new
technologies, products and solutions. We sell our products through our own sales force in the United States, Canada, Singapore, Israel and certain European countries. We sell through distributors in other parts of the world. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our total revenue has increased to $24.7 million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015 from
$19.6 million for the first six months of 2014. Historically, we have generated a substantial majority of our revenue from sales to customers in North America; however, we expect sales in other regions to increase over time. We have never been
profitable and had net losses of $27.3 million and $25.5 million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and as of June&nbsp;30, 2015 our accumulated deficit was $204.2 million. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In March 2014, we entered into a collaboration agreement with Celgene Corporation, or Celgene, pursuant to which we are working
collaboratively with Celgene to develop, seek regulatory approval for, and commercialize a companion diagnostic assay for use in screening patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma. During 2014, we received an upfront payment of $5.8 million and
milestone payments totaling $6.0 million. We recognized the related revenue according to the proportional performance model. We are eligible to receive up to $11.0 million in additional success-based milestone payments related to regulatory approval
milestones. We will retain all commercial rights to the diagnostic test developed under this collaboration, subject to certain backup rights granted to Celgene to commercialize the diagnostic test in a particular country if we elect to cease
distribution or elect not to distribute the diagnostic in such country. Assuming success in the clinical trial process, and subject to regulatory approval, we expect to generate revenues from the sale of the resulting in<I> vitro</I> diagnostic
kits. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On May&nbsp;27, 2015, we entered into a clinical research collaboration agreement with Merck Sharp&nbsp;&amp; Dohme Corp., a
subsidiary of Merck&nbsp;&amp; Co., Inc., or Merck, to develop an assay that will optimize immune-related gene expression signatures and evaluate the potential to predict benefit from Merck&#146;s product, KEYTRUDA, in multiple tumor types. We will
receive up to $4.0 million in payments and the agreement is expected to be completed within one year. We recognized $0.2 million in collaboration revenue for the three and six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015 and received an upfront payment of $2.0
million on July&nbsp;9, 2015. We recognized the related revenue according to the proportional performance model. If the results of this collaboration are successful, we intend to negotiate with Merck a separate agreement that would govern and fund
the development and commercialization of any companion diagnostic assay resulting from this collaboration. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On May&nbsp;19, 2015, we
commenced selling our common stock through the &#147;at the market&#148; equity offering program under our sales agreement with Cowen and Company, LLC, or Cowen. During the three months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015, we sold an aggregate of 960,400
shares of our common stock for total gross proceeds of $13.0 million. The net proceeds from the sale of the shares, after deducting Cowen&#146;s commission and other expenses of the offering, were approximately $12.5 million. As of June&nbsp;30,
2015, approximately $27.0 million of our common stock remained available for sale under the &#147;at the market&#148; equity offering program. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On July&nbsp;15, 2015, we announced the expansion of our nCounter Analysis System product portfolio with the commercial launch of the nCounter
SPRINT Profiler. It provides the same chemistry as the Company&#146;s previous nCounter Analysis Systems, but with a smaller footprint, lower sample throughput and a lower price, which we believe will make the new system appealing to individual
researchers. The new system integrates sample prep and analysis into a single instrument, minimizing manual steps, while further streamlining the overall workflow. The nCounter SPRINT Profiler cannot be used to run Prosigna tests. Together with the
nCounter MAX System (previously known as the research use only system) and the nCounter Dx FLEX Analysis System, this brings the expanded and segmented instrument line to three systems. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our product revenue consists of sales of our nCounter Analysis Systems and related consumables, including Prosigna <I>in vitro</I> diagnostic
kits. Service revenue consists of fees associated with extended service agreements and conducting proof-of-principle studies. Our customer base is primarily composed of academic institutions, government laboratories, biopharmaceutical companies and
clinical laboratories that perform analyses or testing using our nCounter Analysis Systems and purchase related consumables. Collaboration revenue is derived primarily from our collaborations with Celgene and Merck. </P>

Singapore, Malaysia and Australia. </P>

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Instruments revenue growth was due to an increase in the number of instruments sold. The increase in
consumables revenue for both the three and six month periods was driven by growth in our installed base of instruments, which was partially offset by <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">quarter-to-quarter</FONT> variability in customer ordering
patterns and changes in foreign exchange rates. Additionally, for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015, the growth was partially offset by reduced sales in the Northeast United States due to severe weather. Revenue from <I>in vitro</I> diagnostic
kits for the three and six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015 increased significantly as sales of Prosigna kits continued to grow as more laboratories have gradually adopted the test since we launched the product in late 2013. The increase in service
revenue for both the three and six month periods was primarily related to an increase in the number of instruments covered by service agreements. The increase in collaboration revenue for the six month period ended June&nbsp;30, 2015 was primarily
due to our collaboration with Celgene, not beginning until the second quarter of 2014. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Cost of Product and Service Revenue; Gross Profit; and Gross

purchasing instruments from third-party contract manufacturers, consumable component materials and assembly labor and overhead, installation, warranty, service and packaging and delivery costs. In addition, cost of product and service revenue
includes royalty costs for licensed technologies included in our products, provisions for slow-moving and obsolete inventory and stock-based compensation expense. We provide a one-year warranty on each nCounter Analysis System sold and establish a
reserve for warranty repairs based on historical warranty repair costs incurred. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, occupancy, laboratory supplies, engineering services, consulting
fees, costs associated with licensing molecular diagnostics rights and clinical study expenses (including the cost of tissue samples) to support the regulatory approval or clearance of diagnostic products. We have made substantial investments in
research and development since our inception. Our research and development efforts have focused primarily on the tasks required to enhance our technologies and to support development and commercialization of new and existing products and
applications. We believe that our continued investment in research and development is essential to our long-term competitive position and expect these expenses to continue to increase in future periods. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Given the relatively small size of our research and development staff and the limited number of active projects at any given time, we have
found that, to date, it has been effective for us to manage our research and development activities on a departmental basis. Accordingly, we do not require employees to report their time by project, nor do we allocate our research and development
costs to individual projects, other than for collaborations. Research and development expense by functional area was as follows: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The increase in research and development expense for both periods was primarily attributable to personnel
related expenses in support of the advancement of our nCounter technology and the development of new life sciences products; increased medical affairs personnel and activities; and increased facility costs. Additionally, in the six month period,
increased diagnostic product development, including the Celgene collaboration, contributed to the increase. These increases were partially offset by the reduction in engineering costs related to the development of our next generation nCounter
system. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Selling, General and Administrative Expense </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Selling, general and administrative expense consists primarily of costs for our sales and marketing, finance, legal, human resources,
information technology, business development and general management functions, as well as professional services, such as legal, consulting and accounting services. We expect selling, general and administrative expense to increase in future periods
as the number of sales, technical support and marketing and administrative personnel grows and we continue to introduce new products, broaden our customer base and grow our business. In particular, in 2014, we added a substantial number of
additional personnel to support the commercialization of Prosigna, which increased selling and marketing expenses significantly. In February 2015, we combined our two separate sales teams into a single organization selling our entire suite of
products, targeted primarily toward major academic medical centers and biopharmaceutical companies. As a result, we incurred severance related costs, which contributed to higher sales and marketing expense during the first quarter of 2015. For the
remainder of 2015, we anticipate that the absence of these severance related costs and the realization of certain efficiencies associated with the changes will result in slower growth in sales and marketing expense than what we experienced in 2014.
Also, legal, accounting and compliance costs have increased and are expected to continue to increase as our business grows. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of June&nbsp;30, 2015, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaling $52.5 million. We believe our existing cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments, together with additional funding available to us under our existing term loan agreement, will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. However,
we may need to raise additional capital to expand the commercialization of our products, fund our operations and further our research and development activities. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including: market
acceptance of our products; the cost and timing of establishing additional sales, marketing and distribution capabilities; the cost of our research and development activities; the cost and timing of regulatory clearances or approvals; the effect of
competing technological and market developments; the nature and timing of any additional companion diagnostic development collaborations we may establish; and the extent to which we acquire or invest in businesses, products and technologies,
although we currently have no commitments or agreements relating to any of these types of transactions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If we require additional funds in
the future, we may not be able to obtain such funds on acceptable terms, or at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity or equity-linked securities, our stockholders may experience dilution. For example, in May 2015 we issued 960,400
shares of common stock under our sales agreement with Cowen for total gross proceeds of $13.0 million. Debt financing, if available, may involve covenants restricting our operations or our ability to incur additional debt. Any debt or additional
equity financing that we raise may contain terms that are not favorable to us or our stockholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our
technologies or our products, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. If we are unable to raise adequate funds, we may have to liquidate some or all of our assets, or delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate some or all of our
development programs. If we do not have, or are not able to obtain, sufficient funds, we may have to delay development or commercialization of our products or license to third parties the rights to commercialize products or technologies that we
would otherwise seek to commercialize. We also may have to reduce marketing, customer support or other resources devoted to our products or cease operations. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities and, to a lesser extent, from borrowings and
collaborations, and we expect to continue to require cash to fund our operations for at least the next several years. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In January 2014, we
completed an underwritten public offering of common stock for total gross proceeds of $55.0 million. In February 2014, the underwriters partially exercised an overallotment option, purchasing additional shares from us for additional gross proceeds
of $6.4 million. After underwriters&#146; fees and commissions and other expenses of the offering, our aggregate net proceeds were approximately $57.0 million. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In April 2014, we entered into a term loan agreement under which we may borrow up to $45.0 million, or up to an aggregate of approximately
$51.0 million if we elect to exercise in full an option to defer payment of a portion of the interest that would accrue on the borrowing under the term loan agreement. Upon initial closing, we borrowed $20.0 million, the proceeds of which were
primarily used to repay the outstanding balance under a previous credit facility plus a related $1.0 million end of term payment, a $0.3 million make-whole premium, and interest accrued. We incurred and recorded a total charge to interest expense of
$1.4 million related to the repayment of our previous credit facility including a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2014. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In October 2014, we borrowed an additional $10.0 million under the term loan agreement. The original agreement allowed us to borrow up to an
additional $15.0 million under the agreement no later than May 2015. On April&nbsp;16, 2015, we were granted an extension of six months, to November 2015, to borrow the additional $15.0 million under the agreement, subject to a revenue requirement.
All borrowings under the term loan agreement accrue interest at 12.5% annually, payable quarterly, of which 3.5% can be deferred during the first four years of the term at our option and paid together with the principal. During 2014, we exercised
our option to defer payment of the 3.5% accrued interest and are required to pay only interest for the first five years of the term. Principal payments are due in four equal installments during the sixth year of the term. We have the option to
prepay the term loans, in whole or in part, at any time subject to payment of a redemption fee of up to 4%, which declines over the term. The term loan agreement contains customary conditions to borrowings, events of default and negative covenants,
including covenants that could limit our ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, liens or other encumbrances, make dividends or other distributions; buy, sell or transfer assets; engage in any new line of business; and enter
into certain transactions with affiliates. The term loan agreement also includes liquidity and revenue-based financial covenants. We must satisfy certain minimum annual revenue requirements, specifically $55.0 million for 2015 with annual increases
of $15.0 million for each fiscal year thereafter. If our actual revenues are below the minimum annual revenue requirement for any given year, we may avoid a related default by generating proceeds from an equity or subordinated debt issuance equal to
the shortfall between our actual revenues and the minimum revenue requirement. We were in compliance with our covenants as of June&nbsp;30, 2015. Our obligations under the term loan agreement are collateralized by substantially all of our assets.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On May&nbsp;11, 2015, we entered into a Sales Agreement with Cowen to sell shares of our common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of
up to $40.0 million, from time to time, through an &#147;at the market&#148; equity offering program under which Cowen will act as sales agent. Under the Sales Agreement, we set the parameters for the sale of shares, including the number of shares
to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, limitation on the number of shares that may be sold in any one trading day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made. The Sales Agreement provides that Cowen
will be entitled to compensation for its services that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 3% of the gross sales price per share sold through them under the sales agreement. The Sales Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the issuance and
sale of placement shares equaling sales proceeds of $40.0 million and may be terminated earlier by either party upon five days&#146; notice. We have no obligation to sell any shares under the Sales Agreement, and may at any time suspend solicitation
and offers under the Sales Agreement. On May&nbsp;19, 2015, we commenced selling our common stock through the &#147;at the market&#148; equity offering program and during the three months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015, we sold an aggregate of 960,400
shares of our common stock for total gross proceeds of $13.0 million. The net proceeds from the sale of the shares, after deducting Cowen&#146;s commission and other expenses of the offering, were approximately $12.5 million. As of June&nbsp;30,
2015, approximately $27.0 million of our common stock remained available for sale under the &#147;at the market&#148; equity offering program. As of June&nbsp;30, 2015, our deferred offering costs balance was $0.1 million. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our principal uses of cash are funding our operations, satisfaction of our obligations under our debt instruments, and other working capital
requirements. Over the past several years, our revenue has increased significantly from year to year and, as a result, our cash flows from customer collections have increased. However, our operating expenses have also increased as we have invested
in growing our existing research business and in developing Prosigna and preparing it for commercialization. As a result, our cash used in operating activities has increased. Our operating cash requirements may increase in the future as we
(1)&nbsp;increase sales and marketing activities to expand the installed base of our nCounter Analysis Systems among research customers and clinical laboratories, (2)&nbsp;commercialize, and conduct studies to expand the clinical utility of,
Prosigna and (3)&nbsp;develop new applications, chemistry and instruments for our nCounter platform, and we cannot be certain our revenues will grow sufficiently to offset our operating expense increases. </P>

received are outweighed by our use of cash for operating expenses to support the growth of our business. As a result, we have historically experienced negative cash flows from operating activities as we have expanded our business in the United

months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015 consisted of our net loss of $27.3 million and $8.7&nbsp;million of cash used for working capital purposes. These uses were partially offset by $4.7 million of net non-cash items, such as depreciation and
amortization, amortization of premium on short-term investments, accrued interest converted to principal balance of term loan and stock-based compensation. </P>

$1.5&nbsp;million of cash provided by changes in assets and liabilities which was significantly impacted by the deferred revenue balance of&nbsp;$5.1 million related to the Celgene collaboration. Net loss was further reduced by $3.3 million of net

investments in a variety of interest-bearing instruments, which have included U.S. government and agency securities, high-grade U.S. corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, and money market
funds. Declines in interest rates, however, would reduce future investment income. A 1% decline in interest rates, occurring on July&nbsp;1, 2015 and sustained throughout the period ended June&nbsp;30, 2016, would not be material. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of June&nbsp;30, 2015, the principal outstanding under our term borrowings was $31.0&nbsp;million. The interest rates on our term
borrowings under our credit facility are fixed. If overall interest rates had increased by 10% during the periods presented, our interest expense would not have been affected. </P>

we continue to expand internationally our results of operations and cash flows will become increasingly subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Historically, a majority of our revenue has been denominated in U.S.
dollars, although we sell our products and services in local currency outside of the United States, principally the Euro. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, which is primarily in the United
States. The effect of a 10% adverse change in exchange rates on foreign denominated cash, receivables and payables would not have been material for the periods presented. However, if the value of the U.S. dollar increases relative to foreign
currencies, as it did in 2014, in the absence of a corresponding change in local currency prices, our revenue could be adversely affected as we convert revenue from local currencies to U.S. dollars. Similarly, a strong U.S. dollar relative to the
local currencies of our international customers and distributors could potentially reduce our product revenue by reducing demand for our products or requiring us to discount or reduce our pricing to maintain demand. As our operations in countries
outside of the United States grow, our results of operations and cash flows increasingly will be subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which could harm our business in the future. To date, we have not entered
into any material foreign currency hedging contracts although we may do so in the future. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Inflation Risk </I></B></P>

If any of the events described in the following risk factors and the risks described elsewhere in this report occurs, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed. This report on Form 10-Q also contains
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of factors that are described below and elsewhere in this report.
</I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks Related to our Business and Strategy </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>We have incurred losses since we were formed and expect to incur losses in the future. We cannot be certain that we will achieve or sustain
profitability. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have incurred losses since we were formed and expect to incur losses in the future. We incurred net losses of
$27.3 million and $25.5 million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of June&nbsp;30, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of $204.2 million. We expect that our losses will continue for at least the next several
years as we will be required to invest significant additional funds toward development and commercialization of our technology. We also expect that our operating expenses will continue to increase as we grow our business, but there can be no
assurance that our revenues and gross profit will increase sufficiently such that our net losses decline, or we attain profitability, in the future. Our ability to achieve or sustain profitability is based on numerous factors, many of which are
beyond our control, including the market acceptance of our products, future product development and our market penetration and margins. We may never be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or sustain profitability. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our financial results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter which may adversely affect our stock price. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Investors should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we expect to encounter in the new, uncertain and
rapidly evolving markets in which we compete. Because these markets are new and evolving, predicting their future growth and size is difficult. We expect that our visibility into future sales of our products, including volumes, prices and product
mix between instruments and consumables, and revenue from licensing agreements, including the amount and timing of payments pursuant to collaboration agreements, such as our agreement with Celgene Corporation, will continue to be limited and could
result in unexpected fluctuations in our quarterly and annual operating results. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Numerous other factors, many of which are outside our
control, may cause or contribute to significant fluctuations in our quarterly and annual operating results. These fluctuations may make financial planning and forecasting difficult. In addition, these fluctuations may result in unanticipated changes
in our available cash, which could negatively affect our business and prospects. Factors that may contribute to fluctuations in our operating results include many of the risks described in this section. In addition, one or more of such factors may
cause our revenue or operating expenses in one period to be disproportionately higher or lower relative to the others. Our products involve a significant capital commitment by our customers and accordingly involve a lengthy sales cycle. We may
expend significant effort in attempting to make a particular sale, which may be deferred by the customer or never occur. Accordingly, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and investors should not rely on
our past results as an indication of our future performance. If such fluctuations occur or if our operating results deviate from our expectations or the expectations of securities analysts, our stock price may be adversely affected. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If we do not achieve, sustain or successfully manage our anticipated growth, our business and growth prospects will be harmed. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have experienced significant revenue growth in a short period of time. We may not achieve similar growth rates in future periods. Investors
should not rely on our operating results for any prior periods as an indication of our future operating performance. If we are unable to maintain adequate revenue growth, our financial results could suffer and our stock price could decline.
Furthermore, growth will place significant strains on our management and our operational and financial systems and processes. For example, commercialization of the Prosigna Breast Cancer Assay, or Prosigna, in Europe and the United States and
development and commercialization of this test and other diagnostic products worldwide are key elements of our growth strategy and have required us to hire and retain additional sales and marketing, regulatory, manufacturing and quality assurance
personnel. If we do not successfully generate demand for our diagnostic products or manage our anticipated expenses accordingly, our operating results will be harmed. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If Prosigna fails to achieve and sustain sufficient market acceptance, we will not generate expected
revenue, and our prospects may be harmed. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Commercialization of Prosigna in Europe, the United States and the other jurisdictions
in which we intend to pursue regulatory approval or clearance is a key element of our strategy. Currently, most oncologists seeking sophisticated gene expression analysis for diagnosing and profiling breast cancer in their patients, ship tissue
samples to a limited number of centralized laboratories typically located in the United States. We may experience reluctance, or refusal, on the part of physicians to order, and third-party payors to pay for, Prosigna if the results of our research
and clinical studies, and our sales and marketing activities relating to communication of these results, do not convey to physicians, third-party payors, and patients that Prosigna provides equivalent or better prognostic information than those
centralized laboratories. For example, in the third quarter of 2014, we were notified by the Blue Cross Blue Shield Technology Evaluation Center that Prosigna does not currently meet its criteria for inclusion for reimbursement. In February 2015,
Cigna decided that it would not reimburse for Prosigna, and other private payers have adopted similar policies. Although we have made progress with certain Medicare payers, such as the MolDX organization within Palmetto GBA, which has issued a
positive draft local coverage determination, others have initially declined to cover Prosigna. In addition, our diagnostic tests are performed by pathologists in local laboratories, rather than by a vendor in a remote centralized laboratory, which
requires us to educate pathologists regarding the benefits of this business model and oncologists regarding the reliability and consistency of results generated locally. Also, we intend to offer Prosigna in other countries outside of the United
States, where genomic testing for breast cancer is not widely available and the market for such tests is new. The future growth of the market for genomic breast cancer testing will depend on physicians&#146; acceptance of such testing and the
availability of reimbursement for such tests. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">These hurdles may make it difficult to convince health care providers that tests using our
technologies are appropriate options for cancer diagnostics, may be equivalent or superior to available tests, and may be at least as cost effective as alternative technologies. Furthermore, we may encounter significant difficulty in gaining
inclusion in breast cancer treatment guidelines, obtaining patient reimbursement from public and private payors, and gaining broad market acceptance of Prosigna. In July 2015, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, or NCCN, issued a complete
revision to the breast cancer treatment guidelines in which it acknowledged Prosigna as being validated for prediction of prognosis. However, these updated guidelines also express a preference for a competing test which was validated for both
prognosis and prediction. If we fail to successfully commercialize Prosigna, we may never receive a return on the significant investments in sales and marketing, regulatory, manufacturing and quality assurance personnel we have made, and further
investments we intend to make, which would adversely affect our growth prospects, operating results and financial condition. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our future success is
dependent upon our ability to expand our customer base and introduce new applications. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our current customer base is primarily
composed of academic institutions, government laboratories and biopharmaceutical companies that perform analyses using our nCounter Analysis Systems for research use only. In 2013, with the introduction of our first diagnostic products, we began
selling into the clinical laboratory market. Our success will depend, in part, upon our ability to increase our market penetration among all of these customers and to expand our market by developing and marketing new research applications, our lower
cost instrument that we believe will be attractive to more researchers, and new diagnostic products after obtaining regulatory authorization. For example, we must convince physicians and third-party payors that our diagnostic products, such as
Prosigna, are cost effective in obtaining prognostic information that can help inform treatment decisions and that our nCounter Analysis Systems could enable an equivalent or superior approach that lessens reliance on centralized laboratories.
Furthermore, we expect that increasing the installed base of our nCounter Analysis Systems will drive demand for our relatively high margin consumable products. If we are not able to successfully increase our installed base of nCounter Analysis
Systems, sales of our consumable products and our margins may not meet expectations. Attracting new customers and introducing new applications requires substantial time and expense. Any failure to expand our existing customer base, or launch new
applications, would adversely affect our ability to improve our operating results. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our research business depends on levels of research and
development spending by academic and governmental research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies, a reduction in which could limit demand for our products and adversely affect our business and operating results. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the near term, we expect that a large portion of our revenue will be derived from sales of our nCounter Analysis Systems to academic
institutions, governmental laboratories and biopharmaceutical companies worldwide for research and development applications. The demand for our products will depend in part upon the research and development budgets of these customers, which are
impacted by factors beyond our control, such as: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our sales process involves numerous interactions with multiple individuals within an organization, and often includes in-depth analysis by
potential customers of our products, performance of proof-of-principle studies, preparation of extensive documentation and a lengthy review process. As a result of these factors, the large capital investment required in purchasing our instruments
and the budget cycles of our customers, the time from initial contact with a customer to our receipt of a purchase order can vary significantly and be up to 12&nbsp;months or longer. Given the length and uncertainty of our sales cycle, we have in
the past experienced, and likely will in the future experience, fluctuations in our instrument sales on a period-to-period basis. Furthermore, we place instruments under reagent rental agreements, wherein a customer does not purchase an instrument
upfront but instead pays a rental fee associated with each purchase of reagents. An increase in instruments placed under these reagent rental agreements may reduce the number of instruments we would otherwise sell in any period. In addition, any
failure to meet customer expectations could result in customers choosing to retain their existing systems or to purchase systems other than ours. </P>

agreements for our nCounter Analysis Systems and related consumable products within parts of Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific and South America. We intend to continue to grow our business internationally, and to do so we must attract
additional distributors and retain existing distributors to maximize the commercial opportunity for our products. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in attracting or retaining desirable sales and distribution partners or that we will
be able to enter into such arrangements on favorable terms. Distributors may not commit the necessary resources to market and sell our products to the level of our expectations or may choose to favor marketing the products of our competitors. If
current or future distributors do not perform adequately, or we are unable to enter into effective arrangements with distributors in particular geographic areas, we may not realize long-term international revenue growth. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Similarly, we have entered into agreements with clinical laboratories in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, and Israel to provide
Prosigna testing services. We do not provide testing services directly and, thus, we are reliant on these clinical laboratories to actively promote and sell Prosigna testing services. These clinical laboratories may take longer than anticipated to
begin offering Prosigna testing services and may not commit the necessary resources to market and sell Prosigna testing services to the level of our expectations. Furthermore, we intend to contract with additional clinical laboratories to offer
Prosigna testing services and we may be unsuccessful in attracting and contracting with new clinical laboratory providers. If current or future Prosigna testing service providers do not perform adequately, or we are unable to enter into contracts
with additional clinical laboratories to provide Prosigna testing services, we may not be successful selling Prosigna and our future revenue prospects may be adversely affected. </P>

parties for discoveries based on which we develop diagnostic tests. For example, we licensed the rights to intellectual property that forms the basis of Prosigna from Bioclassifier, LLC, which was founded by several of our research customers engaged
in translational research. Similarly, in connection with our collaboration with Celgene Corporation, we licensed the rights to intellectual property relating to a gene signature for lymphoma subtyping, which was discovered by a consortium of
researchers including several of our research customers, from the National Institutes of Health. We intend to enter into more such arrangements with our research customers and other researchers, including biopharmaceutical companies, for development
of future diagnostic products. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in doing so. In particular, our customers are not obligated to collaborate with us or license technology to us, and they may choose to develop diagnostic
products themselves or collaborate with our competitors. Establishing collaborations and licensing arrangements is difficult and time-consuming. Discussions may not lead to collaborations or licenses on favorable terms, if at all. To the extent we
agree to work exclusively with a party in a given area, our opportunities to collaborate with others could be limited. Potential collaborators or licensors may elect not to work with us based upon their assessment of our financial, regulatory or
intellectual property position. Even if we establish new relationships, they may never result in the successful development or commercialization of future tests. </P>

successful commercial products, and success in early clinical studies often is not replicated in later studies. For example, even though the results of our clinical studies of Prosigna were favorable, there is no guarantee that any future studies
will be successful. At any point, we may abandon development of a product candidate or we may be required to expend considerable resources repeating clinical studies, which would adversely impact potential revenue and our expenses. In addition, any
delay in product development would provide others with additional time to commercialize competing products before we do, which in turn may adversely affect our growth prospects and operating results. </P>

assay to be used for subtyping certain lymphoma patients and we intend to enter into additional similar collaborations over time. In May 2015, we entered into a clinical research collaboration agreement with Merck to develop an assay that could
become the subject of an additional companion diagnostic collaboration. The success of the development programs for such assays will be dependent on the success of the related drug trials conducted by our collaborators. There is no guarantee that
those clinical trials will be successful and, as a result, we may expend considerable time and resources developing <I>in vitro</I> diagnostic assays that cannot gain regulatory approval. Although we expect such collaborations to provide funding to
cover our costs of development, failure of these clinical trials would reduce our prospects for introducing new diagnostic products and would adversely impact our growth prospects and future operating results. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our success depends on our ability to develop new products and applications for our technology in existing and new markets, while improving the
performance and cost-effectiveness of our systems. New technologies, techniques or products could emerge that might offer better combinations of price and performance than our current or future products and systems. Existing markets for our
products, including gene expression analysis, gene fusions and copy number variation, as well as potential markets for our research and diagnostic product candidates, are characterized by rapid technological change and innovation. Competitors may be
able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards or customer requirements. We anticipate that we will face increased competition in the future as existing companies and competitors
develop new or improved products and as new companies enter the market with new technologies. It is critical to our success that we anticipate changes in technology and customer requirements and to successfully introduce new, enhanced and
competitive technologies to meet our customers&#146; and prospective customers&#146; needs on a timely and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">cost-effective</FONT> basis. If we do not successfully innovate and introduce new technology into our product
lines, our business and operating results will be adversely impacted. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The development of new products typically requires new scientific
discoveries or advancements and complex technology and engineering. Such developments may involve external suppliers and service providers, making the management of development projects complex and subject to risks and uncertainties regarding
timing, timely delivery of required components or services and satisfactory technical performance of such components or assembled products. For example, in April 2015 we introduced a new application for our technology on a limited basis that enables
the simultaneous measurement of gene and protein expression. We are working with a small number of customers participating in an early access program to test the new application and verify its performance and reliability before we introduce it more
broadly to our customer base. If we do not achieve the required technical specifications, successfully manage new product development processes, or development work is not performed according to schedule, then such new technologies or products may
be adversely impacted and our business and operating results may be harmed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Additionally, we must carefully manage the introduction of
new products. For example, in July 2015 we commercially launched a new version of our nCounter Analysis System that is smaller and less expensive than the previous version. If customers believe that such products, including the new version of our
nCounter system, will offer enhanced features or be sold for a more attractive price, they may delay purchases until such products are available. Furthermore, if customers conclude that such new products offer better value as compared to our
existing products, we may suffer from reduced sales of our existing products and our overall revenues may decline. We may also have excess or obsolete inventory of older products as we transition to new products and our experience in managing
product transitions is very limited. If we do not effectively manage the transitions to new product offerings, our revenues, results of operations and business will be adversely affected. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>New market opportunities may not develop as quickly as we expect, limiting our ability to successfully market and sell our products. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The market for our products is new and evolving. Accordingly, we expect the application of our technologies to emerging opportunities will take
several years to develop and mature and we cannot be certain that these market opportunities will develop as we expect. For example, in July 2013, we launched nCounter Elements, a new digital molecular barcoding chemistry that allows users to design
their own customized assays using standard sets of barcodes provided by us. The future growth of the market for this product depends on many factors beyond our control, including recognition and acceptance of our applications by the scientific
community and the growth, prevalence and costs of competing methods of genomic analysis. Also, in 2015 we commercially launched a new version of our nCounter Analysis system for research and we plan to broadly launch a new research application that

States under a 510(k) for a version of our first diagnostic product, Prosigna, providing an assessment of a patient&#146;s risk of recurrence for breast cancer, and we have obtained a CE mark for Prosigna which permits us to market that assay for
diagnostic purposes in Europe. We do not have regulatory clearance or approval to market any other product for diagnostic purposes or to market Prosigna for diagnostic purposes in any other markets, other than Israel, Canada, Turkey, South Africa,
New Zealand, Hong Kong and Australia or to promote Prosigna in the United States for additional indications. Other than with respect to Prosigna in such jurisdictions, and our nCounter Elements reagents, we are limited to marketing our products for
research use only, which means that we cannot make any diagnostic or clinical claims. We intend to seek regulatory authorizations to market Prosigna in other jurisdictions, as well as for other indications. We cannot assure investors that we will be
successful in obtaining these regulatory clearances or approvals. If we do not obtain additional regulatory clearances or approvals to market future products or future indications for diagnostic purposes, if additional regulatory limitations are

LLC of Corvallis, Oregon, to build our nCounter Digital Analyzer. We have contracted with Paramit Corporation of Morgan Hill, California, to build our new smaller, lower cost nCounter system. Each of these contract manufacturers are sole suppliers.
Since our contracts with these instrument suppliers do not commit them to carry inventory or make available any particular quantities, they may give other customers&#146; needs higher priority than ours, and we may not be able to obtain adequate
supplies in a timely manner or on commercially reasonable terms. We also rely on sole suppliers for various components we use to manufacture our consumable products. We periodically forecast our needs for such components and enter into standard
purchase orders with them. If we were to lose such suppliers, there can be no assurance that we will be able to identify or enter into agreements with alternative suppliers on a timely basis on acceptable terms, if at all. If we should encounter
delays or difficulties in securing the quality and quantity of materials we require for our products, our supply chain would be interrupted which would adversely affect sales. If any of these events occur, our business and operating results could be
harmed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>We may experience manufacturing problems or delays that could limit our growth or adversely affect our operating results </I></B></P>

adherence to specifications and quality systems procedures. Any unforeseen manufacturing problems, such as contamination of our facility, equipment malfunction, or failure to strictly follow procedures or meet specifications, could result in delays
or shortfalls in production of our consumable products. Identifying and resolving the cause of any such manufacturing issues could require substantial time and resources. If we are unable to keep up with demand for our products by successfully
manufacturing and shipping our products in a timely manner, our revenue could be impaired, market acceptance for our products could be adversely affected and our customers might instead purchase our competitors&#146; products. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, the introduction of new products may require the development of new manufacturing processes and procedures. For example, our new
application for the simultaneous measurement of gene and protein expression involves a new process for attaching antibodies to our molecular barcodes. While all of our codesets are produced using the same basic processes, significant variations may
be required to meet product specifications. Developing new processes can be very time consuming, and any unexpected difficulty in doing so could delay the introduction of a product. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If our Seattle facilities become unavailable or inoperable, we will be unable to continue our research and development, manufacturing our consumables or

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We manufacture our consumable products in our headquarters facilities in Seattle, Washington. In addition, Seattle is the center for research
and development, order processing, receipt of our prep station and digital analyzer manufactured by third-party contract manufacturers and shipping products to customers. Our facilities and the equipment we use to manufacture our consumable products
would be costly, and would require substantial lead time, to repair or replace. Seattle is situated near active earthquake fault lines. These facilities may be harmed or rendered inoperable by natural or man-made disasters, including earthquakes and
power outages, which may render it difficult or impossible for us to produce our products for some period of time. The inability to manufacture consumables or to ship products to customers for even a short period of time may result in the loss of
customers or harm our reputation, and we may be unable to regain those customers in the future. Although we possess insurance for damage to our property and the disruption of our business, this insurance, and in particular earthquake insurance,
which is limited, may not be sufficient to cover all of our potential losses and may not continue to be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. </P>

internationally our results of operations and cash flows will become increasingly subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Historically, most of our revenue has been denominated in U.S. dollars, although we have
sold our products and services in local currency outside of the United States, principally the Euro. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, which is primarily in the United States. As our
operations in countries outside of the United States grow, our results of operations and cash flows will be subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which could harm our business in the future. For example, if the
value of the U.S. dollar increases relative to foreign currencies, as it did in 2014, in the absence of a corresponding change in local currency prices, our revenue could be adversely affected as we convert revenue from local currencies to U.S.
dollars. Similarly, a strong U.S. dollar relative to the local currencies of our international customers can potentially reduce demand for our products, which may compound the adverse effect of foreign exchange translation on our revenue. If we

sales personnel with the necessary scientific background and ability to understand our systems at a technical level to effectively identify and sell to potential new customers. Additionally, the commercial launch of Prosigna required us to establish
an oncology-focused commercial organization to fully optimize the breast cancer diagnostic market opportunity. In February 2015, we combined our two separate sales teams into a single organization selling our entire suite of products, targeted
primarily toward major academic medical centers and biopharmaceutical companies. We do not maintain fixed term employment contracts or key man life insurance with any of our employees. Because of the complex and technical nature of our products and

laws and regulations that both public officials and private individuals may seek to enforce. Our activities that are subject to these regulations include, among other things, our use of hazardous materials and the generation, transportation and
storage of waste. We could discover that we or an acquired business is not in material compliance with these regulations. Existing laws and regulations may also be revised or reinterpreted, or new laws and regulations may become applicable to us,
whether retroactively or prospectively, that may have a negative effect on our business and results of operations. It is also impossible to eliminate completely the risk of accidental environmental contamination or injury to individuals. In such an
event, we could be liable for any damages that result, which could adversely affect our business. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks Related to Government Regulation&nbsp;and
Diagnostic Product Reimbursement </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our &#147;research use only&#148; products for the research market could become subject to regulation as
medical devices by the FDA or other regulatory agencies in the future which could increase our costs and delay our commercialization efforts, thereby materially and adversely affecting our business and results of operations. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the United States, most of our products are currently labeled and sold for research use only, or RUO, and not for the diagnosis or treatment
of disease, and are sold to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, academic and government institutions and research laboratories. Because such products are not intended for use in clinical practice in diagnostics, and the products cannot
include clinical or diagnostic claims, they are not subject to regulation by the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, as medical devices. In particular, while the FDA regulations require that RUO products be labeled, &#147;For Research Use Only.
Not for use in diagnostic procedures,&#148; the regulations do not subject such products to the FDA&#146;s pre- and post- market controls for medical devices. In November 2013, the FDA issued a final guidance on RUO products, which, among other
things, reaffirmed that a company may not make clinical or diagnostic claims about an RUO product. Although not suggested in the final RUO guidance, if in the future the FDA modifies its approach to regulating our products labeled for research use
only, it could reduce our revenue or increase our costs and adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations or financial condition. In the event that the FDA requires marketing authorization of our RUO products in the future, there
can be no assurance that the FDA will ultimately grant any clearance or approval requested by us in a timely manner, or at all. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In
addition, we sell dual-use instruments with software that have both FDA-cleared functions and research functions, for which FDA approval or clearance is not required. Dual-use instruments are subject to FDA regulation since they are intended, at
least in part, for use by customers performing clinical diagnostic testing. In November 2014, FDA issued a guidance that described FDA&#146;s approach to regulating molecular diagnostic instruments that combine both approved/cleared device functions
and device functions for which approval/clearance is not required. There is a risk that the FDA could take enforcement action against a manufacturer for distributing dual-use instruments if the company does not follow the restrictions discussed in
the guidance. For example, there could be enforcement action if the FDA determines that approval or clearance was required for those functions for which FDA approval or clearance has not been obtained, and the instruments are being sold off-label.
There is also a risk that the FDA could broaden its current regulatory enforcement of dual-use instruments through additional FDA oversight. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If
Medicare and other third-party payors in the United States and foreign countries do not approve reimbursement for diagnostic tests enabled by our technology, the commercial success of our diagnostic products would be compromised. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Successful commercialization of our diagnostic products depends, in large part, on the availability of adequate reimbursement for testing
services that our diagnostic products enable from government insurance plans, managed care organizations and private insurance plans. There is significant uncertainty surrounding third-party reimbursement for the use of tests that incorporate new
technology, such as Prosigna. For example, in June 2014, the Blue Cross and Blue Shield, or BCBS, Association Technology Evaluation Center affirmed their position that Prosigna should be considered investigational.&nbsp;Subsequently, several BCBS
entities updated their coverage policies based on this evaluation. In February 2015, Cigna decided that it would not reimburse for Prosigna, and other private payers have adopted similar policies. By contrast, in August 2014, UnitedHealthcare, the
largest private health insurer in the United States, agreed with Laboratory Corporation of America, one of our commercial laboratory customers, to begin paying for Prosigna testing. In addition, we have received confirmations of coverage for
Prosigna from California&#146;s Medicaid group, MediCal, and from Providence Health Plan and several other private payers although they have not issued Prosigna-specific policies. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In May 2015, Palmetto GBA, a Medicare Administrative Contractor that assesses molecular
diagnostic technologies through its Molecular Diagnostic Services Program, or MolDX, issued a favorable draft local coverage determination for Prosigna.&nbsp;The draft coverage policy was subject to a public comment period that ended on
July&nbsp;24, 2015. When finalized and published, the decision becomes effective after a minimum notification period of 45 days. The coverage policy would apply to the Palmetto jurisdiction, comprising North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and
West Virginia, but other Medicare jurisdictions participating in the MolDX program may choose to adopt the same policy and other MACs have confirmed coverage but have not issued Prosigna-specific policies. For example, CGS, another MAC whose
jurisdiction covers Kentucky and Ohio, issued a draft local coverage determination identical to Palmetto&#146;s with the same public comment period. Despite such positive developments, other Medicare contractors covering other jurisdictions (such as
First Coast and Novitas) have initially declined to cover Prosigna. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If we are unable to obtain positive policy decisions from third-party
payors approving reimbursement for our tests at adequate levels, the commercial success of our products would be compromised and our revenue would be significantly limited. Even if we do obtain reimbursement for our tests, Medicare, Medicaid and
private and other payors may withdraw their coverage policies, cancel their contracts with us at any time, review and adjust the rate of reimbursement, require co-payments from patients or stop paying for our tests, which would reduce revenue for
testing services based on our technology, and indirectly, demand for diagnostic products. In addition, insurers, including managed care organizations as well as government payors such as Medicare and Medicaid, have increased their efforts to control
the cost, utilization and delivery of healthcare services, which may include decreased coverage or reduced reimbursement. From time to time, Congress has considered and implemented changes to the Medicare fee schedules in conjunction with budgetary
legislation, and pricing and payment terms, including the possible requirement of a patient co-payment for Medicare beneficiaries for tests covered by Medicare, and are subject to change at any time. Reductions in the reimbursement rate of
third-party payors have occurred and may occur in the future. Reductions in the prices at which testing services based on our technology are reimbursed could have a negative impact on our revenue. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In many countries outside of the United States, various coverage, pricing and reimbursement approvals are required. Recently, positive
reimbursement decisions for Prosigna have occurred in Germany, certain regions of Spain, and Israel. Despite these positive developments, we continue to expect that it will take several years to establish broad coverage and reimbursement for testing
services based on our products with most payors in countries outside of the United States, and our efforts may not be successful. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We
continue to pursue positive reimbursement coverage decisions from government insurance plans, managed care organizations and private insurance plans.&nbsp;From time to time, if positive reimbursement coverage decisions are obtained, we intend to
publicly announce such decisions.&nbsp;In most cases where coverage is denied by a third-party payer, there will be subsequent opportunities to submit additional information or clinical evidence and have such decision reconsidered. We intend to
evaluate the benefit of continued pursuit of a positive reimbursement determination on a case by case basis and in most cases expect to continue to pursue a positive coverage decision with those payors based on additional information or subsequent
clinical developments; as a result, we do not intend to publicly announce any denials of coverage or the absence of a coverage determination on a regular basis. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In February 2014, we launched nCounter Elements reagents, a new digital molecular barcoding chemistry that allows users to design their own
customized assays using standard sets of barcodes provided by us with the laboratories&#146; choice of oligonucleotide probes. nCounter Elements reagents may be used in conjunction with appropriate analyte specific reagents and general purpose
reagents to create diagnostic test procedures or test systems. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A clinical laboratory can use nCounter Elements reagents to create what is
called a Laboratory Developed Test, or LDT. LDTs, according to the FDA, are diagnostic tests that are developed, validated, manufactured and performed by a single laboratory and include genetic tests. Historically LDTs have not been subject to FDA
regulation. In October 2014, the FDA issued its draft guidance documents for LDTs proposing the use of a risk-based approach to regulating LDTs. Any restrictions on LDTs by the FDA could restrict the demand for our products, including nCounter
Elements reagents. Additionally, compliance with additional regulatory burdens could be time consuming and costly for our customers. If the FDA issues final guidance documents for LDTs or limits the acceptability of the raw materials and components
used to make LDTs, such regulation could adversely affect our prospects, results of operations and financial condition. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Approval and/or clearance

regulation as medical devices, unless an exemption applies, we are required to obtain either prior 510(k) clearance or prior pre-market approval, or PMA, from the FDA. In September 2013, we received FDA 510(k) clearance for Prosigna as a prognostic

in conjunction with locoregional treatment and consistent with standard of care. We intend to pursue additional intended uses for Prosigna that may require a PMA approval, which is a more burdensome regulatory process than the 510(k) clearance
process. In addition, we are currently collaborating with Celgene on a companion diagnostic. In August 2014, the FDA issued a companion diagnostics final </P>

guidance stating that if the device is essential to the safety or efficacy of the drug, the FDA generally will require approval or clearance for the device at the time when the FDA approves the
drug. Even if granted, a 510(k) clearance or PMA approval for any future product would likely place substantial restrictions on how our device is marketed or sold, and the FDA will continue to place considerable restrictions on our products,
including, but not limited to, the Quality System Regulation, or QSR, registering manufacturing facilities, listing the products with the FDA, and complying with labeling, marketing, complaint handling, adverse event and medical device reporting
requirements, and corrections and removals. Obtaining FDA clearance or approval for diagnostics can be expensive and uncertain, and generally takes from several&nbsp;months to several years, and generally requires detailed and comprehensive
scientific and clinical data. Notwithstanding the expense, these efforts may never result in FDA approval or clearance. Even if we were to obtain regulatory approval or clearance, it may not be for the uses we believe are important or commercially
attractive, in which case we would not be permitted to market our product for those uses. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sales of our diagnostic products outside the
United States are subject to foreign regulatory requirements governing clinical studies, vigilance reporting, marketing approval, manufacturing, regulatory inspections, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement. These regulatory requirements vary
greatly from country to country. As a result, the time required to obtain approvals outside the United States may differ from that required to obtain FDA approval or clearance, and we may not be able to obtain foreign regulatory approvals on a
timely basis or at all. Approval or clearance by the FDA does not ensure approval by regulatory authorities in other countries, and approval by one foreign regulatory authority does not ensure approval or clearance by regulatory authorities in other
countries or by the FDA, and foreign regulatory authorities could require additional testing. In addition, FDA regulates exports of medical devices. Failure to comply with these regulatory requirements or to obtain required approvals or clearances
could impair our ability to commercialize our diagnostic products outside of the United States. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>We expect to rely on third parties in conducting

regulatory clearance or approval for our diagnostic products, including Prosigna. Accordingly, we expect to rely on third parties, such as medical institutions, clinical investigators, consultants, and collaborators to conduct such studies. Our
reliance on these third parties for clinical development activities will reduce our control over these activities. These third-party contractors may not complete activities on schedule or conduct studies in accordance with regulatory requirements or
our study design. Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of any applicable requirement to prepare, and ensure compliance with, various procedures required under good clinical practices. If these third parties do not
successfully carry out their contractual duties or regulatory obligations or meet expected deadlines, if the third parties need to be replaced or if the quality or accuracy of the data they obtain is compromised due to their failure to adhere to our
clinical protocols or regulatory requirements or for other reasons, our studies may be extended, delayed, suspended or terminated, and we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for our diagnostic products. </P>

the FDA of our manufacturing facilities and compliance with requirements such as ISO 13485 and the QSR, which establish extensive requirements for quality assurance and control as well as manufacturing and change control procedures; requirements
pertaining to the registration of our manufacturing facilities and the listing of our devices with the FDA; continued complaint, adverse event and malfunction reporting; corrections and removals reporting; and labeling and promotional requirements.
Other agencies may also issue guidelines and regulations that could impact the development of our products, including companion diagnostic tests. For example, the European Medicines Agency, a European Union agency which is responsible for the
scientific evaluation of medicines used in the EU, recently launched an initiative to determine guidelines for the use of genomic biomarkers in the development and life-cycle of drugs. We may also be subject to additional FDA post-marketing
obligations or requirements by the FDA to change our current product classifications which would impose additional regulatory obligations on us. The promotional claims we can make for Prosigna are limited to the cleared indication. If we are not
able to maintain regulatory compliance, we may not be permitted to market our medical device products and/or may be subject to enforcement by EU Competent Authorities and the FDA such as the issuance of warning or untitled letters, fines,
injunctions, and civil penalties; recall or seizure of products; operating restrictions; and criminal prosecution. In addition, we may be subject to similar regulatory regimes of foreign jurisdictions as we continue to commercialize our products in
new markets. Adverse Notified Body, EU Competent Authority or FDA action in any of these areas could significantly increase our expenses and limit our revenue and profitability. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act, collectively, the
ACA, enacted in March 2010, made changes that significantly impact the pharmaceutical and medical device industries and clinical laboratories. For example, beginning in 2013, each medical device manufacturer must pay a sales tax in an amount equal
to 2.3% of the price for which such manufacturer sells its medical devices. The tax applies to our listed medical device products, which include the nCounter Dx Analysis System, Prosigna <I>in vitro</I> diagnostic kits and nCounter Elements
reagents. The ACA also mandates a reduction in payments for clinical laboratory services paid under the Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule&nbsp;of 1.75% for the years 2011 through 2015 and a productivity adjustment to the Clinical Laboratory
Fee Schedule. These or any future proposed or mandated reductions in payments may apply to some or all of the clinical laboratory tests that our customers use our technology to deliver to Medicare beneficiaries, and may indirectly reduce demand for
our products. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Other significant measures contained in the ACA include coordination and promotion of research on comparative clinical
effectiveness of different technologies and procedures, initiatives to revise Medicare payment methodologies, such as bundling of payments across the continuum of care by providers and physicians, and initiatives to promote quality indicators in
payment methodologies. The ACA also includes significant new fraud and abuse measures, including required disclosures of financial arrangements with physician customers, lower thresholds for violations and increasing potential penalties for such
violations. In addition, the ACA establishes an Independent Payment Advisory Board, or IPAB, to reduce the per capita rate of growth in Medicare spending. The IPAB has broad discretion to propose policies to reduce health care expenditures, which
may have a negative impact on payment rates for services, including our tests. The IPAB proposals may impact payments for clinical laboratory services that our customers use our technology to deliver beginning in 2016 and for hospital services
beginning in 2020, and may indirectly reduce demand for our products. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition to the ACA, the effect of which cannot presently be
quantified, various healthcare reform proposals have also emerged from federal and state governments. Changes in healthcare policy, such as the creation of broad test utilization limits for diagnostic products in general or requirements that
Medicare patients pay for portions of clinical laboratory tests or services received, could substantially impact the sales of our tests, increase costs and divert management&#146;s attention from our business. Such co-payments by Medicare
beneficiaries for laboratory services were discussed as possible cost savings for the Medicare program as part of the debt ceiling budget discussions in mid-2011 and may be enacted in the future. In addition, sales of our tests outside of the United
States will subject us to foreign regulatory requirements, which may also change over time. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We cannot predict whether future healthcare
initiatives will be implemented at the federal or state level or in countries outside of the United States in which we may do business, or the effect any future legislation or regulation will have on us. The expansion in government&#146;s effect on
the United States healthcare industry may result in decreased profits to us, lower reimbursements by payors for our products or reduced medical procedure volumes, all of which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of

positions of life sciences companies can be highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions for which important legal principles remain unresolved. No consistent policy regarding the breadth of claims allowed in such companies&#146;
patents has emerged to date in the United States. Furthermore, in the biotechnology field, courts frequently render opinions that may affect the patentability of certain inventions or discoveries, including opinions that may affect the patentability
of methods for analyzing or comparing DNA. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In particular, the patent positions of companies engaged in development and commercialization
of genomic diagnostic tests, like Prosigna, are particularly uncertain.&nbsp;Various courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court, have recently rendered decisions that impact the scope of patentability of certain inventions or discoveries relating to
genomic diagnostics. Specifically these decisions stand for the proposition that patent claims that recite laws of nature (for example, the relationships between gene expression levels and the likelihood of risk of recurrence of cancer) are not
themselves patentable unless those patent claims have sufficient additional features that provide practical assurance that the processes are genuine inventive applications of those laws rather than patent drafting efforts designed to monopolize the
law of nature itself. What constitutes a &#147;sufficient&#148; additional feature is uncertain. Accordingly, this evolving case law in the United States may adversely impact our ability to obtain new patents and may facilitate third-party
challenges to our existing owned and licensed patents. One of our main areas of intellectual property, namely patents we license directed to the use of gene expression markers as part of genomic diagnostic tests, may be affected by these decisions.

many companies have encountered significant problems in protecting and defending such rights in foreign jurisdictions. The legal systems of certain countries, particularly certain developing countries, do not favor the enforcement of patents and
other intellectual property protection, particularly those relating to biotechnology, which could make it difficult for us to stop the infringement of our patents. Proceedings to enforce our patent rights in foreign jurisdictions could result in
substantial cost and divert our efforts and attention from other aspects of our business. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Changes in either the patent laws or in

markets may assert their patents and other proprietary rights against us as a means of slowing our entry into such markets or as a means to extract substantial license and royalty payments from us. Our competitors and others may now and in the
future have significantly larger and more mature patent portfolios than we currently have. In addition, future litigation may involve patent holding companies or other adverse patent owners who have no relevant product revenue and against whom our
own patents may provide little or no deterrence or protection. Therefore, our commercial success may depend in part on our non-infringement of the patents or proprietary rights of third parties. We are aware of a third party, Genomic Health, Inc.,
that has issued patents and pending patent applications in the United States, Europe and other jurisdictions that claim methods of using certain genes that are included in Prosigna. We believe that Prosigna does not infringe any valid issued claim.
Numerous significant intellectual property issues have been litigated, and will likely continue to be litigated, between existing and new participants in our existing and targeted markets and competitors may assert that our products infringe their
intellectual property rights as part of a business strategy to impede our successful entry into those markets. Third parties may assert that we are employing their proprietary technology without authorization. In addition, our competitors and others
may have patents or may in the future obtain patents and claim that use of our products infringes these patents. We could incur substantial costs and divert the attention of our management and technical personnel in defending against any of these
claims. Parties making claims against us may be able to obtain injunctive or other relief, which could block our ability to develop, commercialize and sell products, and could result in the award of substantial damages against us. In the event of a
successful claim of infringement against us, we may be required to pay damages and obtain one or more licenses from third parties, or be prohibited from selling certain products. We may not be able to obtain these licenses at a reasonable cost, if
at all. We could therefore incur substantial costs related to royalty payments for licenses obtained from third parties, which could negatively affect our gross margins. In addition, we could encounter delays in product introductions while we
attempt to develop alternative methods or products to avoid infringing third-party patents or proprietary rights. Defense of any lawsuit or failure to obtain any of these licenses on favorable terms could prevent us from commercializing products,

These broad market and industry fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. In several recent situations where the market price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock
have instituted securities class action litigation against the company that issued the stock. If any of our stockholders were to bring a lawsuit against us, the defense and disposition of the lawsuit could be costly and divert the time and attention

Furthermore, the current level of trading may not be sustained in the future. The lack of an active market for our common stock may impair investors&#146; ability to sell their shares at the time they wish to sell them or at a price that they
consider reasonable, may reduce the fair market value of their shares and may impair our ability to raise capital. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If securities or industry

our business. If one or more of the analysts who cover us issues an adverse opinion about our company, our stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us or fails to regularly publish reports on us, we could
lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Future sales of our common stock

approved. We could be an &#147;emerging growth company&#148; until December&nbsp;31, 2018, although, if we have more than $1.0&nbsp;billion in annual revenue, if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds
$700&nbsp;million as of June&nbsp;30 of any year, or we issue more than $1.0&nbsp;billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period before the end of that five-year period, we would cease to be an &#147;emerging growth company&#148; as of the
following December&nbsp;31. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of these exemptions, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be lower and be more volatile. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As an &#147;emerging growth company&#148; the JOBS Act allows us to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to
public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements
of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies, which may make our common stock less attractive to investors. </P>

results. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a public company, and particularly after we cease to be an &#147;emerging growth
company,&#148; we incur and will continue to incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and The NASDAQ Global
Market impose numerous requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. Also, the Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our
business and operating results. Our management and other personnel must devote a substantial amount of time to compliance with these laws and regulations. These burdens may increase as new legislation is passed and implemented, including any new
requirements that the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 may impose on public companies. These requirements have increased and will likely continue to increase our legal, accounting, and financial compliance costs and
have made and will continue to make some activities more time consuming and costly. For example, as a public company it is more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and in the future we may be
required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or to incur substantial costs to maintain the same or similar coverage. These rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on
our board of directors or our board committees or as executive officers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we
assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting annually and the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures quarterly. In particular, beginning January&nbsp;1, 2014, Section&nbsp;404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act,
or Section&nbsp;404, requires us to perform system and process evaluation and testing of </P>

our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm potentially to attest to, the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting. As an &#147;emerging growth company,&#148; we are availing ourselves of the exemption from the requirement that our independent registered public accounting firm attest to the effectiveness of our internal control
over financial reporting under Section&nbsp;404. However, we may no longer avail ourselves of this exemption when we cease to be an &#147;emerging growth company.&#148; When our independent registered public accounting firm is required to undertake
an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, the cost of our compliance with Section&nbsp;404 will correspondingly increase. Our compliance with applicable provisions of Section&nbsp;404 will require that we incur substantial
accounting expense and expend significant management time on compliance-related issues as we implement additional corporate governance practices and comply with reporting requirements. Moreover, if we are not able to comply with the requirements of
Section&nbsp;404 applicable to us in a timely manner, or if we or our independent registered public accounting firm identifies deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price
of our stock could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Furthermore, investor perceptions of our company may suffer if deficiencies are found, and this could cause a decline in the market price of
our stock. Irrespective of compliance with Section&nbsp;404, any failure of our internal control over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our stated operating results and harm our reputation. If we are unable to implement
these requirements effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting, or financial results and could result in an adverse opinion on our internal control over financial reporting from our independent registered public
accounting firm. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The SEC adopted its final rule implementing Section&nbsp;1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act concerning conflict minerals in August 2012. The rule requires us to submit forms and reports to the SEC annually to disclose our determinations and due diligence measures. We have filed Form SD for the two years ended
December&nbsp;31, 2014 and included a Conflict Minerals Report as an exhibit to this form. We do not directly purchase any conflict minerals. However, tracing these materials back to their country of origin is a complex task that required us to,
among other things, survey suppliers in our supply chain to understand what programs they have in place for tracing the source of minerals supplied to us or used in products supplied to us and to ensure that reasonable due diligence has been
performed. However, we have not determined how many, or if any, of our supply chain partners use conflict minerals. Moreover, we may face a limited pool of suppliers who can provide us &#147;conflict-free&#148; components, parts and manufactured
products, and we may not be able to obtain conflict-free products or supplies in sufficient quantities or at competitive prices for our operations, and may be required to disclose that our products are not &#147;conflict free.&#148; This could
adversely affect our reputation and may harm relationships with business partners and customers, and our stock price could suffer as a result. </P>

 The Company invests in securities that are rated investment grade
 or better. The unrealized losses on investments as of June&amp;#xA0;30,
 2015 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2014 were primarily caused by interest
 rate increases.&lt;/p&gt;

 The Company reviews the individual securities in its portfolio to
 determine whether a decline in a security&amp;#x2019;s fair value below
 the amortized cost basis is other-than-temporary. The Company
 determined that as of June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015, there were no investments
 in its portfolio that were other-than-temporarily impaired.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company recognizes revenue when (1)&amp;#xA0;persuasive evidence of
 an arrangement exists, (2)&amp;#xA0;delivery has occurred or services
 have been rendered, (3)&amp;#xA0;the price to the customer is fixed or
 determinable and (4)&amp;#xA0;collectability is reasonably assured. The
 Company generates the majority of its revenue from the sale of
 products and services. The Company&amp;#x2019;s products consist of its
 proprietary nCounter Analysis Systems and related consumables.
 Services consist of extended warranties and service fees for assay
 processing. A delivered product or service is considered to be a
 separate unit of accounting when it has value to the customer on a
 stand-alone basis. Products or services have value on a stand-alone
 basis if they are sold separately by any vendor or the customer
 could resell the delivered product.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 Instruments, consumables and &lt;i&gt;in vitro&lt;/i&gt; diagnostic kits are
 considered to be separate units of accounting as they are sold
 separately and revenue is recognized upon transfer of ownership,
 which is generally upon shipment. Instrument revenue related to
 installation and calibration services is recognized when services
 are rendered by the Company. Such services can also be provided by
 the Company&amp;#x2019;s distribution partners and other third parties.
 For instruments sold solely to run Prosigna assays, training must
 be provided prior to instrument revenue recognition. Instrument
 revenue from leased instruments is recognized ratably over the
 lease term.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 Service revenue is recognized when earned, which is generally upon
 the rendering of the related services. Service agreements and
 service fees for assay processing are each considered separate
 units of accounting as they are sold separately. The Company offers
 service agreements on its nCounter Analysis Systems for periods
 ranging from 12 to 36 months after the end of the standard 12-month
 warranty period. Service agreements are generally separately
 priced. Revenue from service agreements is deferred and recognized
 in income on a straight-line basis over the service period.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 For arrangements with multiple deliverables, the Company allocates
 the agreement consideration at the inception of the agreement to
 the deliverables based upon their relative selling prices. To date,
 selling prices have been established by reference to vendor
 specific objective evidence based on stand-alone sales transactions
 for each deliverable.&amp;#xA0;Vendor specific objective evidence is
 considered to have been established when a substantial majority of
 individual sales transactions within the previous 12 month period
 fall within a reasonably narrow range, which the Company has
 defined to be plus or minus 15% of the mean sales price of actual
 stand-alone sales transactions. The Company uses its best estimate
 of selling price for individual deliverables when vendor specific
 objective evidence or third-party evidence is unavailable.
 Allocated revenue is only recognized for each deliverable when the
 revenue recognition criteria have been met.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company enters into collaborative agreements that may generate
 upfront fees with subsequent milestone payments that may be earned
 upon completion of development-related milestones. The Company is
 able to estimate the total cost of services under the arrangements
 and recognizes collaboration revenue using a proportional
 performance model. Costs incurred to date compared to total
 expected costs are used to determine proportional performance, as
 this is considered to be representative of the delivery of outputs
 under the arrangements. Revenue recognized at any point in time is
 limited to cash received and amounts contractually due. Changes in
 estimates of total expected costs are accounted for prospectively
 as a change in estimate. From period to period, collaboration
 revenue can fluctuate substantially based on the achievement of
 development-related milestones.&lt;/p&gt;

 In April 2014, the Company entered into a term loan agreement under
 which it may borrow up to $45.0 million, or up to an aggregate of
 approximately $51.0 million if the Company elects to exercise in
 full an option to defer payment of a portion of the interest that
 would accrue on the borrowing under the term loan agreement. Upon
 initial closing, the Company borrowed $20.0&amp;#xA0;million, the
 proceeds of which were primarily used to repay the outstanding
 balance under a previous credit facility plus a related $1.0
 million end of term payment, a $0.3 million make-whole premium, and
 interest accrued. The Company incurred and recorded a total charge
 to interest expense of $1.4 million related to the repayment of its
 previous credit facility including a loss on extinguishment of debt
 of $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2014.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 2%; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 In October 2014, the Company borrowed an additional $10.0 million
 under the term loan agreement. The original agreement allowed the
 Company to borrow up to an additional $15.0 million under the
 agreement no later than May 2015. On April&amp;#xA0;16, 2015, the
 Company was granted an extension of six months, to November 2015,
 to borrow the additional $15.0 million under the agreement, subject
 to a revenue requirement. All borrowings under the term loan
 agreement accrue interest at 12.5% annually, payable quarterly, of
 which 3.5% can be deferred during the first four years of the term
 at the Company&amp;#x2019;s option and paid together with the principal.
 During 2014, the Company exercised its option to defer payment of
 the 3.5% accrued interest and is required to pay only the remaining
 9% in cash interest for the first five years of the term. Principal
 payments are due in four equal installments during the sixth year
 of the term. The Company has the option to prepay the term loans,
 in whole or in part, at any time subject to payment of a redemption
 fee of up to 4%, which declines over the term. The term loan
 agreement contains customary conditions to borrowings, events of
 default and negative covenants, including covenants that could
 limit the Company&amp;#x2019;s ability to, among other things, incur
 additional indebtedness, liens or other encumbrances, make
 dividends or other distributions; buy, sell or transfer assets;
 engage in any new line of business; and enter into certain
 transactions with affiliates. The term loan agreement also includes
 liquidity and revenue-based financial covenants. The Company must
 satisfy certain minimum annual revenue requirements, specifically
 $55.0&amp;#xA0;million for 2015 with annual increases of $15.0 million
 for each fiscal year thereafter. If the Company&amp;#x2019;s actual
 revenues are below the minimum annual revenue requirement for any
 given year, the Company may avoid a related default by generating
 proceeds from an equity or subordinated debt issuance equal to the
 shortfall between its actual revenues and the minimum revenue
 requirement. The Company was in compliance with its covenants as of
 June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015. The Company&amp;#x2019;s obligations under the term
 loan agreement are collateralized by substantially all of its
 assets.&lt;/p&gt;

 Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to
 concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash
 equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash
 is invested in accordance with the Company&amp;#x2019;s investment
 policy, which includes guidelines intended to minimize and
 diversify credit risk. Most of the Company&amp;#x2019;s investments are
 not federally insured. The Company has credit risk related to the
 collectability of its accounts receivable. The Company performs
 initial and ongoing evaluations of its customers&amp;#x2019; credit
 history or financial position and generally extends credit on
 account without collateral. The Company has not experienced any
 significant credit losses to date as a result of credit risk
 concentration.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company had no customers that individually represented more
 than 10% of total revenue during the three and six months ended
 June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015 and 2014. The Company had one customer that
 represented more than 10% of total accounts receivable as of
 June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015 and one customer that represented more than 10%
 of total accounts receivable as of December&amp;#xA0;31, 2014.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company is also subject to supply chain risks related to the
 outsourcing of the manufacturing and production of its instruments
 to sole suppliers. Although there are a limited number of
 manufacturers for instruments of this type, the Company believes
 that other suppliers could provide similar products on comparable
 terms. Similarly, the Company sources certain raw materials used in
 the manufacture of consumables from certain sole suppliers. A
 change in suppliers could cause a delay in manufacturing and a
 possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect operating
 results.&lt;/p&gt;

 The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
 statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
 subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2014 has been derived from the audited
 consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include
 all of the information and disclosures required by generally
 accepted accounting principles in the United States of America
 (&amp;#x201C;U.S. GAAP&amp;#x201D;) for annual financial statements. These
 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes
 should be read in conjunction with the Company&amp;#x2019;s audited
 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included
 in the Company&amp;#x2019;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
 ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2014. The accompanying unaudited condensed
 consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
 with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
 Commission (&amp;#x201C;SEC&amp;#x201D;) and U.S. GAAP for unaudited
 condensed consolidated financial information. Accordingly, they do
 not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S.
 GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited
 condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
 consisting of normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of
 management, are necessary for a fair statement of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s financial position and results of its operations,
 as of and for the periods presented.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 Unless indicated otherwise, all amounts presented in financial
 tables are presented in thousands, except for per share and par
 value amounts.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
 GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
 affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial
 statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
 those estimates. The results of the Company&amp;#x2019;s operations for
 the three and six month periods ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015 are not
 necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
 year or for any other period.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Revenue Recognition&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company recognizes revenue when (1)&amp;#xA0;persuasive evidence of
 an arrangement exists, (2)&amp;#xA0;delivery has occurred or services
 have been rendered, (3)&amp;#xA0;the price to the customer is fixed or
 determinable and (4)&amp;#xA0;collectability is reasonably assured. The
 Company generates the majority of its revenue from the sale of
 products and services. The Company&amp;#x2019;s products consist of its
 proprietary nCounter Analysis Systems and related consumables.
 Services consist of extended warranties and service fees for assay
 processing. A delivered product or service is considered to be a
 separate unit of accounting when it has value to the customer on a
 stand-alone basis. Products or services have value on a stand-alone
 basis if they are sold separately by any vendor or the customer
 could resell the delivered product.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 Instruments, consumables and &lt;i&gt;in vitro&lt;/i&gt; diagnostic kits are
 considered to be separate units of accounting as they are sold
 separately and revenue is recognized upon transfer of ownership,
 which is generally upon shipment. Instrument revenue related to
 installation and calibration services is recognized when services
 are rendered by the Company. Such services can also be provided by
 the Company&amp;#x2019;s distribution partners and other third parties.
 For instruments sold solely to run Prosigna assays, training must
 be provided prior to instrument revenue recognition. Instrument
 revenue from leased instruments is recognized ratably over the
 lease term.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 Service revenue is recognized when earned, which is generally upon
 the rendering of the related services. Service agreements and
 service fees for assay processing are each considered separate
 units of accounting as they are sold separately. The Company offers
 service agreements on its nCounter Analysis Systems for periods
 ranging from 12 to 36 months after the end of the standard 12-month
 warranty period. Service agreements are generally separately
 priced. Revenue from service agreements is deferred and recognized
 in income on a straight-line basis over the service period.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 For arrangements with multiple deliverables, the Company allocates
 the agreement consideration at the inception of the agreement to
 the deliverables based upon their relative selling prices. To date,
 selling prices have been established by reference to vendor
 specific objective evidence based on stand-alone sales transactions
 for each deliverable.&amp;#xA0;Vendor specific objective evidence is
 considered to have been established when a substantial majority of
 individual sales transactions within the previous 12 month period
 fall within a reasonably narrow range, which the Company has
 defined to be plus or minus 15% of the mean sales price of actual
 stand-alone sales transactions. The Company uses its best estimate
 of selling price for individual deliverables when vendor specific
 objective evidence or third-party evidence is unavailable.
 Allocated revenue is only recognized for each deliverable when the
 revenue recognition criteria have been met.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company enters into collaborative agreements that may generate
 upfront fees with subsequent milestone payments that may be earned
 upon completion of development-related milestones. The Company is
 able to estimate the total cost of services under the arrangements
 and recognizes collaboration revenue using a proportional
 performance model. Costs incurred to date compared to total
 expected costs are used to determine proportional performance, as
 this is considered to be representative of the delivery of outputs
 under the arrangements. Revenue recognized at any point in time is
 limited to cash received and amounts contractually due. Changes in
 estimates of total expected costs are accounted for prospectively
 as a change in estimate. From period to period, collaboration
 revenue can fluctuate substantially based on the achievement of
 development-related milestones.&lt;/p&gt;

 As an &amp;#x201C;emerging growth company,&amp;#x201D; the Jumpstart Our

 or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies
 until such pronouncements are made applicable to private
 companies.&lt;/p&gt;

 In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
 (&amp;#x201C;FASB&amp;#x201D;) issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &amp;#x201C;ASU &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;2014-09,&lt;/font&gt;
 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.&amp;#x201D; The standard requires
 entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five
 step model, which includes identification of the contract,
 identification of the performance obligations, determination of the
 transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the
 performance obligations, and recognition of revenue as the entity
 satisfies the performance obligations. The standard will become
 effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2018. The
 Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the
 potential impact on its consolidated results of operations,
 financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement
 disclosures.&lt;/p&gt;

 In June 2014, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &amp;#x201C;ASU 2014-12, Compensation &amp;#x2013; Stock Compensation.&amp;#x201D;
 The standard requires entities that grant their employees
 share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a
 performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved
 after the requisite service period be treated as a performance
 condition. The standard will become effective for the Company for
 the year beginning January 1, 2016. The Company is currently
 evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact on its
 consolidated results of operations, financial condition, cash
 flows, and financial statement disclosures.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"&gt;

 In August 2014, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &amp;#x201C;ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements &amp;#x2013;
 Going Concern.&amp;#x201D; The standard requires entities to evaluate
 for each annual and interim reporting period, whether there are
 conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
 substantial doubt about the entity&amp;#x2019;s ability to continue as a
 going concern within one year after the date that the financial
 statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the
 financial statements are available to be issued when applicable).
 The standard will become effective for the Company beginning
 January&amp;#xA0;1, 2016.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 In February 2015, FASB issued an accounting standards update
 entitled &amp;#x201C;ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation
 Analysis.&amp;#x201D; The standard requires entities to evaluate whether
 they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities
 are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model.
 The standard will become effective for the Company beginning
 January&amp;#xA0;1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the
 guidance to determine the potential impact on its consolidated
 results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and
 financial statement disclosures.&lt;/p&gt;

 In April 2015, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &amp;#x201C;ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest: Simplifying
 the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.&amp;#x201D; The standard
 requires entities to present debt issuance costs on the balance
 sheets as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather
 than as an asset, and the amortization is reported as interest
 expense. The standard will become effective for the Company
 beginning January&amp;#xA0;1, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating
 the guidance to determine the potential impact on its consolidated
 results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and

 The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
 statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
 subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2014 has been derived from the audited
 consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include
 all of the information and disclosures required by generally
 accepted accounting principles in the United States of America
 (&amp;#x201C;U.S. GAAP&amp;#x201D;) for annual financial statements. These
 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes
 should be read in conjunction with the Company&amp;#x2019;s audited
 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included
 in the Company&amp;#x2019;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
 ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2014. The accompanying unaudited condensed
 consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
 with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
 Commission (&amp;#x201C;SEC&amp;#x201D;) and U.S. GAAP for unaudited
 condensed consolidated financial information. Accordingly, they do
 not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S.
 GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited
 condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
 consisting of normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of
 management, are necessary for a fair statement of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s financial position and results of its operations,
 as of and for the periods presented.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 Unless indicated otherwise, all amounts presented in financial
 tables are presented in thousands, except for per share and par
 value amounts.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
 GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
 affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial
 statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
 those estimates. The results of the Company&amp;#x2019;s operations for
 the three and six month periods ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015 are not
 necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
 year or for any other period.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company uses a proportional performance model to recognize
 collaboration revenue over the Company&amp;#x2019;s performance period
 for the related collaboration agreement. Costs incurred to date
 compared to total expected costs are used to determine proportional
 performance, as this is considered to be representative of the
 delivery of outputs under the arrangement. Revenue recognized at
 any point in time is limited to cash received and amounts
 contractually due. Changes in estimates of total expected costs are
 accounted for prospectively as a change in estimate. All amounts
 received or due are classified as collaboration revenue as they are
 earned.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Celgene Corporation&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 In March 2014, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement
 with Celgene Corporation (&amp;#x201C;Celgene&amp;#x201D;) to develop, seek
 regulatory approval for, and commercialize a companion diagnostic
 assay for use in screening patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell
 Lymphoma. The Company received an upfront payment of $5.8 million
 upon its delivery of certain information to Celgene, and is
 eligible to receive up to $17.0 million in success-based milestone
 payments related to development and regulatory milestones. The
 Company will retain all commercial rights to the diagnostic test
 developed under this collaboration, subject to certain backup
 rights granted to Celgene to commercialize the diagnostic test in a
 particular country if the Company elects to cease distribution or
 elect not to distribute the diagnostic in such country. Assuming
 success in the clinical trial process, and subject to regulatory
 approval, the Company will market and sell the diagnostic assay and
 Celgene has agreed to make certain potential commercial payments to
 the Company in the event sales of the assay do not exceed certain
 pre-specified minimum annual revenues during the first three years
 following regulatory approval.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company achieved and was paid for milestones totaling $6.0
 million during 2014. The process of successfully developing a
 product candidate, obtaining regulatory approval and ultimately
 commercializing a product candidate is highly uncertain and the
 attainment of any additional milestones is therefore uncertain and
 difficult to predict. In addition, certain milestones are outside
 the Company&amp;#x2019;s control and are dependent on the performance of
 Celgene and the outcome of a clinical trial and related regulatory
 processes. Accordingly, the Company is not able to reasonably
 estimate when, if at all, any additional milestone payments may be
 payable to the Company by Celgene.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 2%; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 For the three and six months ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015 and 2014, the
 Company recognized collaboration revenue related to the Celgene
 agreement of $0.3 million, $1.0 million, $0.6 million and $0.6
 million, respectively. At June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015, the Company had
 recorded $7.8 million of deferred revenue related to the Celgene
 collaboration, of which $1.7 million is estimated to be recognized
 as revenue within one year.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Merck&amp;#xA0;&amp;amp; Co., Inc.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 On May&amp;#xA0;27, 2015, the Company entered into a clinical research
 collaboration agreement with Merck Sharp&amp;#xA0;&amp;amp; Dohme Corp., a
 subsidiary of Merck&amp;#xA0;&amp;amp; Co., Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Merck&amp;#x201D;), to
 develop an assay that will optimize immune-related gene expression
 signatures and evaluate the potential to predict benefit from
 Merck&amp;#x2019;s anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA, in multiple tumor types.
 The Company will receive up to $4.0 million in payments and the
 agreement is expected to be completed within one year. If
 successful, Merck and the Company intend to negotiate in good faith
 a separate agreement that would govern and fund the development and
 commercialization of any companion diagnostic assay resulting from
 the first phase of the collaboration.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company recognized collaboration revenue of $0.2 million
 related to the Merck agreement for the three and six months ended
 June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015 and none for 2014. As of June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015, the
 Company was owed $2.1 million by Merck, which includes a
 $2.0&amp;#xA0;million upfront payment that was received in July
 2015.&lt;/p&gt;

 The Company establishes the fair value of its assets and
 liabilities using the price that would be received to sell an asset
 or paid to transfer a financial liability in an orderly transaction
 between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value
 hierarchy is used to measure fair value. The three levels of the
 fair value hierarchy are as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

 The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including
 cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other, accounts
 payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to
 their relatively short-term maturities. The recorded amount of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s long-term debt approximates fair value because the
 related interest rates approximate rates currently available to the
 Company.&lt;/p&gt;

 NanoString Technologies, Inc. (the &amp;#x201C;Company&amp;#x201D;) was
 incorporated in the state of Delaware on June&amp;#xA0;20, 2003. The
 Company&amp;#x2019;s headquarters are located in Seattle, Washington.
 The Company&amp;#x2019;s technology enables direct detection,
 identification and quantification of individual target molecules in
 a biological sample by attaching a unique color coded fluorescent
 reporter to each target molecule of interest. The Company markets
 its proprietary nCounter Analysis System, consisting of instruments
 and consumables, including its Prosigna Breast Cancer Assay, to
 academic, government, biopharmaceutical and clinical laboratory
 customers.&lt;/p&gt;

 The Company has incurred losses to date and expects to incur
 additional losses in the foreseeable future. The Company continues
 to devote the majority of its resources to the growth of its
 business in accordance with its business plan. The Company&amp;#x2019;s
 activities have been financed primarily through the sale of equity
 securities, incurrence of indebtedness and, to a lesser extent,
 capital leases and other borrowings.&lt;/p&gt;

 On May&amp;#xA0;11, 2015, the Company entered into a sales agreement
 (the &amp;#x201C;Sales Agreement&amp;#x201D;) with Cowen and Company, LLC
 (&amp;#x201C;Cowen&amp;#x201D;) to sell shares of the Company&amp;#x2019;s common
 stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $40.0 million, from
 time to time, through an &amp;#x201C;at the market&amp;#x201D; equity
 offering program under which Cowen will act as sales agent. Under
 the Sales Agreement, the Company sets the parameters for the sale
 of shares, including the number of shares to be issued, the time
 period during which sales are requested to be made, limitation on
 the number of shares that may be sold in any one trading day and
 any minimum price below which sales may not be made. The Sales
 Agreement provides that Cowen will be entitled to compensation for
 its services that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 3% of the
 gross sales price per share sold through them under the Sales
 Agreement. The Sales Agreement shall automatically terminate upon
 the issuance and sale of placement shares equaling sales proceeds
 of $40.0 million and may be terminated earlier by either the
 Company or Cowen upon five days&amp;#x2019; notice. The Company has no
 obligation to sell any shares under the Sales Agreement, and may at
 any time suspend solicitation and offers under the Sales Agreement.
 On May&amp;#xA0;19, 2015, the Company commenced selling its common
 stock through the &amp;#x201C;at the market&amp;#x201D; equity offering
 program under the Sales Agreement. During the three months ended
 June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015, the Company sold an aggregate of 960,400 shares
 of the Company&amp;#x2019;s common stock for total gross proceeds of
 $13.0 million. The net proceeds from the sale of the shares, after
 deducting Cowen&amp;#x2019;s commission and other expenses of the
 offering, were approximately $12.5 million. As of June&amp;#xA0;30,
 2015, approximately $27.0 million of the Company&amp;#x2019;s common
 stock remained available for sale under the &amp;#x201C;at the
 market&amp;#x201D; equity offering program. As of June&amp;#xA0;30, 2015,
 the Company&amp;#x2019;s deferred offering costs balance was $0.1
 million.&lt;/p&gt;

 From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation
 relating to claims arising from the ordinary course of business.
 Management believes that there are no claims or actions pending
 against the Company currently, the ultimate disposition of which
 would have a material adverse effect on the Company&amp;#x2019;s
 consolidated results of operation, financial condition or cash
 flows.&lt;/p&gt;

 The Company establishes the fair value of its assets and
 liabilities using the price that would be received to sell an asset
 or paid to transfer a financial liability in an orderly transaction
 between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value
 hierarchy is used to measure fair value. The three levels of the
 fair value hierarchy are as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

 The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including
 cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other, accounts
 payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to
 their relatively short-term maturities. The recorded amount of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s long-term debt approximates fair value because the
 related interest rates approximate rates currently available to the
 Company.&lt;/p&gt;

 Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the
 weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Any
 outstanding stock options and warrants have not been included in
 the calculation of the diluted net loss per share because to do so
 would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the numerator and the
 denominator used in computing both basic and diluted net loss per
 share for each period are the same.&lt;/p&gt;

 As an &amp;#x201C;emerging growth company,&amp;#x201D; the Jumpstart Our

 In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
 (&amp;#x201C;FASB&amp;#x201D;) issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &amp;#x201C;ASU &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;2014-09,&lt;/font&gt;
 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.&amp;#x201D; The standard requires
 entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five
 step model, which includes identification of the contract,
 identification of the performance obligations, determination of the
 transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the
 performance obligations, and recognition of revenue as the entity
 satisfies the performance obligations. The standard will become
 effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2018. The
 Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the
 potential impact on its consolidated results of operations,
 financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement
 disclosures.&lt;/p&gt;

 In June 2014, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &amp;#x201C;ASU 2014-12, Compensation &amp;#x2013; Stock Compensation.&amp;#x201D;
 The standard requires entities that grant their employees
 share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a
 performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved
 after the requisite service period be treated as a performance
 condition. The standard will become effective for the Company for
 the year beginning January 1, 2016. The Company is currently
 evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact on its
 consolidated results of operations, financial condition, cash
 flows, and financial statement disclosures.&lt;/p&gt;

 In August 2014, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &amp;#x201C;ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements &amp;#x2013;
 Going Concern.&amp;#x201D; The standard requires entities to evaluate
 for each annual and interim reporting period, whether there are
 conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
 substantial doubt about the entity&amp;#x2019;s ability to continue as a
 going concern within one year after the date that the financial
 statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the
 financial statements are available to be issued when applicable).
 The standard will become effective for the Company beginning
 January&amp;#xA0;1, 2016.&lt;/p&gt;

 are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model.

 In April 2015, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &amp;#x201C;ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest: Simplifying
 the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.&amp;#x201D; The standard
 requires entities to present debt issuance costs on the balance
 sheets as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather
 than as an asset, and the amortization is reported as interest
 expense. The standard will become effective for the Company
 beginning January&amp;#xA0;1, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating
 the guidance to determine the potential impact on its consolidated
 results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and
 financial statement disclosures.&lt;/p&gt;

 Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the
 weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Any
 outstanding stock options and warrants have not been included in
 the calculation of the diluted net loss per share because to do so
 would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the numerator and the
 denominator used in computing both basic and diluted net loss per
 share for each period are the same.&lt;/p&gt;

 Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the
 weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Any
 outstanding stock options and warrants have not been included in
 the calculation of the diluted net loss per share because to do so
 would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the numerator and the
 denominator used in computing both basic and diluted net loss per

 The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
 statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
 subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at
 December&#xA0;31, 2014 has been derived from the audited
 consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include
 all of the information and disclosures required by generally
 accepted accounting principles in the United States of America
 (&#x201C;U.S. GAAP&#x201D;) for annual financial statements. These
 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes
 should be read in conjunction with the Company&#x2019;s audited
 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included
 in the Company&#x2019;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
 ended December&#xA0;31, 2014. The accompanying unaudited condensed
 consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
 with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
 Commission (&#x201C;SEC&#x201D;) and U.S. GAAP for unaudited
 condensed consolidated financial information. Accordingly, they do
 not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S.
 GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited
 condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
 consisting of normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of
 management, are necessary for a fair statement of the
 Company&#x2019;s financial position and results of its operations,
 as of and for the periods presented.</p>

 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
 GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
 affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial
 statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
 those estimates. The results of the Company&#x2019;s operations for
 the three and six month periods ended June&#xA0;30, 2015 are not
 necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
 year or for any other period.</p>

 <b><i>Revenue Recognition</i></b></p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 The Company recognizes revenue when (1)&#xA0;persuasive evidence of
 an arrangement exists, (2)&#xA0;delivery has occurred or services
 have been rendered, (3)&#xA0;the price to the customer is fixed or
 determinable and (4)&#xA0;collectability is reasonably assured. The
 Company generates the majority of its revenue from the sale of
 products and services. The Company&#x2019;s products consist of its
 proprietary nCounter Analysis Systems and related consumables.
 Services consist of extended warranties and service fees for assay
 processing. A delivered product or service is considered to be a
 separate unit of accounting when it has value to the customer on a
 stand-alone basis. Products or services have value on a stand-alone
 basis if they are sold separately by any vendor or the customer
 could resell the delivered product.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 Instruments, consumables and <i>in vitro</i> diagnostic kits are
 considered to be separate units of accounting as they are sold
 separately and revenue is recognized upon transfer of ownership,
 which is generally upon shipment. Instrument revenue related to
 installation and calibration services is recognized when services
 are rendered by the Company. Such services can also be provided by
 the Company&#x2019;s distribution partners and other third parties.
 For instruments sold solely to run Prosigna assays, training must
 be provided prior to instrument revenue recognition. Instrument
 revenue from leased instruments is recognized ratably over the
 lease term.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 Service revenue is recognized when earned, which is generally upon
 the rendering of the related services. Service agreements and
 service fees for assay processing are each considered separate
 units of accounting as they are sold separately. The Company offers
 service agreements on its nCounter Analysis Systems for periods
 ranging from 12 to 36 months after the end of the standard 12-month
 warranty period. Service agreements are generally separately
 priced. Revenue from service agreements is deferred and recognized
 in income on a straight-line basis over the service period.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 For arrangements with multiple deliverables, the Company allocates
 the agreement consideration at the inception of the agreement to
 the deliverables based upon their relative selling prices. To date,
 selling prices have been established by reference to vendor
 specific objective evidence based on stand-alone sales transactions
 for each deliverable.&#xA0;Vendor specific objective evidence is
 considered to have been established when a substantial majority of
 individual sales transactions within the previous 12 month period
 fall within a reasonably narrow range, which the Company has
 defined to be plus or minus 15% of the mean sales price of actual
 stand-alone sales transactions. The Company uses its best estimate
 of selling price for individual deliverables when vendor specific
 objective evidence or third-party evidence is unavailable.
 Allocated revenue is only recognized for each deliverable when the
 revenue recognition criteria have been met.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 The Company enters into collaborative agreements that may generate
 upfront fees with subsequent milestone payments that may be earned
 upon completion of development-related milestones. The Company is
 able to estimate the total cost of services under the arrangements
 and recognizes collaboration revenue using a proportional
 performance model. Costs incurred to date compared to total
 expected costs are used to determine proportional performance, as
 this is considered to be representative of the delivery of outputs
 under the arrangements. Revenue recognized at any point in time is
 limited to cash received and amounts contractually due. Changes in
 estimates of total expected costs are accounted for prospectively
 as a change in estimate. From period to period, collaboration
 revenue can fluctuate substantially based on the achievement of
 development-related milestones.</p>

 In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
 (&#x201C;FASB&#x201D;) issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &#x201C;ASU <font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap">2014-09,</font>
 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.&#x201D; The standard requires
 entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five
 step model, which includes identification of the contract,
 identification of the performance obligations, determination of the
 transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the
 performance obligations, and recognition of revenue as the entity
 satisfies the performance obligations. The standard will become
 effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2018. The
 Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the
 potential impact on its consolidated results of operations,
 financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement
 disclosures.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 In June 2014, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &#x201C;ASU 2014-12, Compensation &#x2013; Stock Compensation.&#x201D;
 The standard requires entities that grant their employees
 share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a
 performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved
 after the requisite service period be treated as a performance
 condition. The standard will become effective for the Company for
 the year beginning January 1, 2016. The Company is currently
 evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact on its
 consolidated results of operations, financial condition, cash
 flows, and financial statement disclosures.</p>

 In August 2014, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &#x201C;ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements &#x2013;
 Going Concern.&#x201D; The standard requires entities to evaluate
 for each annual and interim reporting period, whether there are
 conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
 substantial doubt about the entity&#x2019;s ability to continue as a
 going concern within one year after the date that the financial
 statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the
 financial statements are available to be issued when applicable).
 The standard will become effective for the Company beginning
 January&#xA0;1, 2016.</p>

 In February 2015, FASB issued an accounting standards update
 entitled &#x201C;ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation
 Analysis.&#x201D; The standard requires entities to evaluate whether
 they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities
 are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model.
 The standard will become effective for the Company beginning
 January&#xA0;1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the
 guidance to determine the potential impact on its consolidated
 results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and
 financial statement disclosures.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 In April 2015, FASB issued an accounting standards update entitled
 &#x201C;ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest: Simplifying
 the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.&#x201D; The standard
 requires entities to present debt issuance costs on the balance
 sheets as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather
 than as an asset, and the amortization is reported as interest
 expense. The standard will become effective for the Company
 beginning January&#xA0;1, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating
 the guidance to determine the potential impact on its consolidated
 results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and

 NanoString Technologies, Inc. (the &#x201C;Company&#x201D;) was
 incorporated in the state of Delaware on June&#xA0;20, 2003. The
 Company&#x2019;s headquarters are located in Seattle, Washington.
 The Company&#x2019;s technology enables direct detection,
 identification and quantification of individual target molecules in
 a biological sample by attaching a unique color coded fluorescent
 reporter to each target molecule of interest. The Company markets
 its proprietary nCounter Analysis System, consisting of instruments
 and consumables, including its Prosigna Breast Cancer Assay, to
 academic, government, biopharmaceutical and clinical laboratory
 customers.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 The Company has incurred losses to date and expects to incur
 additional losses in the foreseeable future. The Company continues
 to devote the majority of its resources to the growth of its
 business in accordance with its business plan. The Company&#x2019;s
 activities have been financed primarily through the sale of equity
 securities, incurrence of indebtedness and, to a lesser extent,
 capital leases and other borrowings.</p>

 <b><i>Sales Agreement</i></b></p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 On May&#xA0;11, 2015, the Company entered into a sales agreement
 (the &#x201C;Sales Agreement&#x201D;) with Cowen and Company, LLC
 (&#x201C;Cowen&#x201D;) to sell shares of the Company&#x2019;s common
 stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $40.0 million, from
 time to time, through an &#x201C;at the market&#x201D; equity
 offering program under which Cowen will act as sales agent. Under
 the Sales Agreement, the Company sets the parameters for the sale
 of shares, including the number of shares to be issued, the time
 period during which sales are requested to be made, limitation on
 the number of shares that may be sold in any one trading day and
 any minimum price below which sales may not be made. The Sales
 Agreement provides that Cowen will be entitled to compensation for
 its services that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 3% of the
 gross sales price per share sold through them under the Sales
 Agreement. The Sales Agreement shall automatically terminate upon
 the issuance and sale of placement shares equaling sales proceeds
 of $40.0 million and may be terminated earlier by either the
 Company or Cowen upon five days&#x2019; notice. The Company has no
 obligation to sell any shares under the Sales Agreement, and may at
 any time suspend solicitation and offers under the Sales Agreement.
 On May&#xA0;19, 2015, the Company commenced selling its common
 stock through the &#x201C;at the market&#x201D; equity offering
 program under the Sales Agreement. During the three months ended
 June&#xA0;30, 2015, the Company sold an aggregate of 960,400 shares
 of the Company&#x2019;s common stock for total gross proceeds of
 $13.0 million. The net proceeds from the sale of the shares, after
 deducting Cowen&#x2019;s commission and other expenses of the
 offering, were approximately $12.5 million. As of June&#xA0;30,
 2015, approximately $27.0 million of the Company&#x2019;s common
 stock remained available for sale under the &#x201C;at the
 market&#x201D; equity offering program. As of June&#xA0;30, 2015,
 the Company&#x2019;s deferred offering costs balance was $0.1
 million.</p>

 The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
 statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
 subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at
 December&#xA0;31, 2014 has been derived from the audited
 consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include
 all of the information and disclosures required by generally
 accepted accounting principles in the United States of America
 (&#x201C;U.S. GAAP&#x201D;) for annual financial statements. These
 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes
 should be read in conjunction with the Company&#x2019;s audited
 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included
 in the Company&#x2019;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
 ended December&#xA0;31, 2014. The accompanying unaudited condensed
 consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
 with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
 Commission (&#x201C;SEC&#x201D;) and U.S. GAAP for unaudited
 condensed consolidated financial information. Accordingly, they do
 not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S.
 GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited
 condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
 consisting of normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of
 management, are necessary for a fair statement of the
 Company&#x2019;s financial position and results of its operations,
 as of and for the periods presented.</p>

 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
 GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
 affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial
 statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
 those estimates. The results of the Company&#x2019;s operations for
 the three and six month periods ended June&#xA0;30, 2015 are not
 necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
 year or for any other period.</p>

 <b><i>Revenue Recognition</i></b></p>

 The Company recognizes revenue when (1)&#xA0;persuasive evidence of
 an arrangement exists, (2)&#xA0;delivery has occurred or services
 have been rendered, (3)&#xA0;the price to the customer is fixed or
 determinable and (4)&#xA0;collectability is reasonably assured. The
 Company generates the majority of its revenue from the sale of
 products and services. The Company&#x2019;s products consist of its
 proprietary nCounter Analysis Systems and related consumables.
 Services consist of extended warranties and service fees for assay
 processing. A delivered product or service is considered to be a
 separate unit of accounting when it has value to the customer on a
 stand-alone basis. Products or services have value on a stand-alone
 basis if they are sold separately by any vendor or the customer
 could resell the delivered product.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 Instruments, consumables and <i>in vitro</i> diagnostic kits are
 considered to be separate units of accounting as they are sold
 separately and revenue is recognized upon transfer of ownership,
 which is generally upon shipment. Instrument revenue related to
 installation and calibration services is recognized when services
 are rendered by the Company. Such services can also be provided by
 the Company&#x2019;s distribution partners and other third parties.
 For instruments sold solely to run Prosigna assays, training must
 be provided prior to instrument revenue recognition. Instrument
 revenue from leased instruments is recognized ratably over the
 lease term.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 Service revenue is recognized when earned, which is generally upon
 the rendering of the related services. Service agreements and
 service fees for assay processing are each considered separate
 units of accounting as they are sold separately. The Company offers
 service agreements on its nCounter Analysis Systems for periods
 ranging from 12 to 36 months after the end of the standard 12-month
 warranty period. Service agreements are generally separately
 priced. Revenue from service agreements is deferred and recognized
 in income on a straight-line basis over the service period.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 For arrangements with multiple deliverables, the Company allocates
 the agreement consideration at the inception of the agreement to
 the deliverables based upon their relative selling prices. To date,
 selling prices have been established by reference to vendor
 specific objective evidence based on stand-alone sales transactions
 for each deliverable.&#xA0;Vendor specific objective evidence is
 considered to have been established when a substantial majority of
 individual sales transactions within the previous 12 month period
 fall within a reasonably narrow range, which the Company has
 defined to be plus or minus 15% of the mean sales price of actual
 stand-alone sales transactions. The Company uses its best estimate
 of selling price for individual deliverables when vendor specific
 objective evidence or third-party evidence is unavailable.
 Allocated revenue is only recognized for each deliverable when the
 revenue recognition criteria have been met.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 The Company enters into collaborative agreements that may generate
 upfront fees with subsequent milestone payments that may be earned
 upon completion of development-related milestones. The Company is
 able to estimate the total cost of services under the arrangements
 and recognizes collaboration revenue using a proportional
 performance model. Costs incurred to date compared to total
 expected costs are used to determine proportional performance, as
 this is considered to be representative of the delivery of outputs
 under the arrangements. Revenue recognized at any point in time is
 limited to cash received and amounts contractually due. Changes in
 estimates of total expected costs are accounted for prospectively
 as a change in estimate. From period to period, collaboration
 revenue can fluctuate substantially based on the achievement of
 development-related milestones.</p>

 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.&#x201D; The standard requires
 entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five
 step model, which includes identification of the contract,
 identification of the performance obligations, determination of the
 transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the
 performance obligations, and recognition of revenue as the entity
 satisfies the performance obligations. The standard will become
 effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2018. The
 Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the

 share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a

 substantial doubt about the entity&#x2019;s ability to continue as a
 going concern within one year after the date that the financial

 In April 2014, the Company entered into a term loan agreement under
 which it may borrow up to $45.0 million, or up to an aggregate of
 approximately $51.0 million if the Company elects to exercise in
 full an option to defer payment of a portion of the interest that
 would accrue on the borrowing under the term loan agreement. Upon
 initial closing, the Company borrowed $20.0&#xA0;million, the
 proceeds of which were primarily used to repay the outstanding
 balance under a previous credit facility plus a related $1.0
 million end of term payment, a $0.3 million make-whole premium, and
 interest accrued. The Company incurred and recorded a total charge
 to interest expense of $1.4 million related to the repayment of its
 previous credit facility including a loss on extinguishment of debt
 of $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2014.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 2%; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 In October 2014, the Company borrowed an additional $10.0 million
 under the term loan agreement. The original agreement allowed the
 Company to borrow up to an additional $15.0 million under the
 agreement no later than May 2015. On April&#xA0;16, 2015, the
 Company was granted an extension of six months, to November 2015,
 to borrow the additional $15.0 million under the agreement, subject
 to a revenue requirement. All borrowings under the term loan
 agreement accrue interest at 12.5% annually, payable quarterly, of
 which 3.5% can be deferred during the first four years of the term
 at the Company&#x2019;s option and paid together with the principal.
 During 2014, the Company exercised its option to defer payment of
 the 3.5% accrued interest and is required to pay only the remaining
 9% in cash interest for the first five years of the term. Principal
 payments are due in four equal installments during the sixth year
 of the term. The Company has the option to prepay the term loans,
 in whole or in part, at any time subject to payment of a redemption
 fee of up to 4%, which declines over the term. The term loan
 agreement contains customary conditions to borrowings, events of
 default and negative covenants, including covenants that could
 limit the Company&#x2019;s ability to, among other things, incur
 additional indebtedness, liens or other encumbrances, make
 dividends or other distributions; buy, sell or transfer assets;
 engage in any new line of business; and enter into certain
 transactions with affiliates. The term loan agreement also includes
 liquidity and revenue-based financial covenants. The Company must
 satisfy certain minimum annual revenue requirements, specifically
 $55.0&#xA0;million for 2015 with annual increases of $15.0 million
 for each fiscal year thereafter. If the Company&#x2019;s actual
 revenues are below the minimum annual revenue requirement for any
 given year, the Company may avoid a related default by generating
 proceeds from an equity or subordinated debt issuance equal to the
 shortfall between its actual revenues and the minimum revenue
 requirement. The Company was in compliance with its covenants as of
 June&#xA0;30, 2015. The Company&#x2019;s obligations under the term
 loan agreement are collateralized by substantially all of its
 assets.</p>

 The Company uses a proportional performance model to recognize
 collaboration revenue over the Company&#x2019;s performance period
 for the related collaboration agreement. Costs incurred to date
 compared to total expected costs are used to determine proportional
 performance, as this is considered to be representative of the
 delivery of outputs under the arrangement. Revenue recognized at
 any point in time is limited to cash received and amounts
 contractually due. Changes in estimates of total expected costs are
 accounted for prospectively as a change in estimate. All amounts
 received or due are classified as collaboration revenue as they are
 earned.</p>

 <b><i>Celgene Corporation</i></b></p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 In March 2014, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement
 with Celgene Corporation (&#x201C;Celgene&#x201D;) to develop, seek
 regulatory approval for, and commercialize a companion diagnostic
 assay for use in screening patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell
 Lymphoma. The Company received an upfront payment of $5.8 million
 upon its delivery of certain information to Celgene, and is
 eligible to receive up to $17.0 million in success-based milestone
 payments related to development and regulatory milestones. The
 Company will retain all commercial rights to the diagnostic test
 developed under this collaboration, subject to certain backup
 rights granted to Celgene to commercialize the diagnostic test in a
 particular country if the Company elects to cease distribution or
 elect not to distribute the diagnostic in such country. Assuming
 success in the clinical trial process, and subject to regulatory
 approval, the Company will market and sell the diagnostic assay and
 Celgene has agreed to make certain potential commercial payments to
 the Company in the event sales of the assay do not exceed certain
 pre-specified minimum annual revenues during the first three years
 following regulatory approval.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 The Company achieved and was paid for milestones totaling $6.0
 million during 2014. The process of successfully developing a
 product candidate, obtaining regulatory approval and ultimately
 commercializing a product candidate is highly uncertain and the
 attainment of any additional milestones is therefore uncertain and
 difficult to predict. In addition, certain milestones are outside
 the Company&#x2019;s control and are dependent on the performance of
 Celgene and the outcome of a clinical trial and related regulatory
 processes. Accordingly, the Company is not able to reasonably
 estimate when, if at all, any additional milestone payments may be
 payable to the Company by Celgene.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 2%; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 For the three and six months ended June&#xA0;30, 2015 and 2014, the
 Company recognized collaboration revenue related to the Celgene
 agreement of $0.3 million, $1.0 million, $0.6 million and $0.6
 million, respectively. At June&#xA0;30, 2015, the Company had
 recorded $7.8 million of deferred revenue related to the Celgene
 collaboration, of which $1.7 million is estimated to be recognized
 as revenue within one year.</p>

 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 On May&#xA0;27, 2015, the Company entered into a clinical research
 collaboration agreement with Merck Sharp&#xA0;&amp; Dohme Corp., a
 subsidiary of Merck&#xA0;&amp; Co., Inc. (&#x201C;Merck&#x201D;), to
 develop an assay that will optimize immune-related gene expression
 signatures and evaluate the potential to predict benefit from
 Merck&#x2019;s anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA, in multiple tumor types.
 The Company will receive up to $4.0 million in payments and the
 agreement is expected to be completed within one year. If
 successful, Merck and the Company intend to negotiate in good faith
 a separate agreement that would govern and fund the development and
 commercialization of any companion diagnostic assay resulting from
 the first phase of the collaboration.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 The Company recognized collaboration revenue of $0.2 million
 related to the Merck agreement for the three and six months ended
 June&#xA0;30, 2015 and none for 2014. As of June&#xA0;30, 2015, the
 Company was owed $2.1 million by Merck, which includes a
 $2.0&#xA0;million upfront payment that was received in July
 2015.</p>

 Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to
 concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash
 equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash
 is invested in accordance with the Company&#x2019;s investment
 policy, which includes guidelines intended to minimize and
 diversify credit risk. Most of the Company&#x2019;s investments are
 not federally insured. The Company has credit risk related to the
 collectability of its accounts receivable. The Company performs
 initial and ongoing evaluations of its customers&#x2019; credit
 history or financial position and generally extends credit on
 account without collateral. The Company has not experienced any
 significant credit losses to date as a result of credit risk
 concentration.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 The Company had no customers that individually represented more
 than 10% of total revenue during the three and six months ended
 June&#xA0;30, 2015 and 2014. The Company had one customer that
 represented more than 10% of total accounts receivable as of
 June&#xA0;30, 2015 and one customer that represented more than 10%
 of total accounts receivable as of December&#xA0;31, 2014.</p>
 <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%">
 The Company is also subject to supply chain risks related to the
 outsourcing of the manufacturing and production of its instruments
 to sole suppliers. Although there are a limited number of
 manufacturers for instruments of this type, the Company believes
 that other suppliers could provide similar products on comparable
 terms. Similarly, the Company sources certain raw materials used in
 the manufacture of consumables from certain sole suppliers. A
 change in suppliers could cause a delay in manufacturing and a
 possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect operating
 results.</p>
