DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE Portions of the registrant’s definitive proxy statement for the 2021 annual meeting of shareholders are incorporated by reference into Part III of this Report. EXPLANATORY NOTE Quotient Limited. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 (this “Amendment No. 1”), as originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 3, 2021 (the “Original Form 10-K” or the “Original Filing”) to amend and restate the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as further described below. This amended and restated report on Form 10-K/A is presented as of the filing date of the Original Form 10-K and does not reflect events occurring after that date, or modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the restatement described below. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the date on which we filed the Original Form 10-K. The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A to reflect restatements to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 and relevant unaudited condensed consolidated financial information for the fiscal year 2021 quarterly periods to correct errors in the Company’s accounting for its 12% Senior Secured Notes due 2024 (“Secured Notes“) and related royalty rights agreements. Subsequent to the issuance of the Original Form 10-K, management of the Company determined that it did not identify the correct accounting treatment at the time of entering into these transactions, and accounted for these instruments on a combined basis instead of treating these as separate freestanding financial instruments. This non-cash error resulted in an understatement of interest expense and total liabilities associated with these instruments. This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A sets forth the Original Form 10-K in its entirety, as amended to reflect the restatement. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original Form 10-K have not been revised to reflect events that occurred or facts that became known to the Company after the filing of the Original Form 10-K, and such forward-looking statements should be read in their historical context. For reasons discussed above, we are filing this Amendment in order to amend the following items in our Original Filing to the extent necessary to reflect the adjustments discussed above and make corresponding revisions to our financial data cited elsewhere in this Amendment. The following items have been amended as a result of the restatement: • • • • • Item 1A of Part I, “Risk Factors”, Item 7 of Part II, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” Item 8 of Part II, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”, Item 9A of Part II, “Controls and procedures”; and Item 15 of Part IV, “Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.” However, for the convenience of the reader, this Amendment sets forth the Original Filing in its entirety, as amended to reflect the restatement. In accordance with applicable SEC rules, this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A includes an updated signature page, certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in Exhibits 31.1, 31.2 and 32.1 as required by Rule 12b-15, and a Consent of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm as Exhibit 23.1. The Company is also filing an amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021 to restate the previously issued interim condensed consolidated financial statements due to the accounting matter described above. In connection with the restatement, the Company has also corrected certain errors that the Company previously determined to be immaterial. Refer to Note 2, Restatement of Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements, of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K/A for additional information and for the summary of the accounting impacts of these adjustments to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As a result of the restatement, the Company has concluded its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of March 31, 2021 due to a material weakness in the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2021. See additional discussion included in Part II, Item 9A of this Amended Annual Report. TABLE OF CONTENTS PART I Item 1.

We encourage you to carefully review the full risk factors contained in this Annual Report in their entirety for additional information regarding these risks and uncertainties. Risks Related to Our Business, Industry and Future Plans • We have incurred losses since our commencement of operations and expect to incur losses in the future. • We may need to raise additional capital, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, and may be raised in transactions that are dilutive to our shareholders. • We cannot accurately predict the volume or timing of any future sales for MosaiQ, making future revenues difficult to predict. • We have invested a significant amount of money in two funds administered by Credit Suisse Asset Management which are at least partially subject to valuation uncertainty and potential losses, and there can be no assurance as to the timing or amount of future distributions from the funds. If we do not achieve, sustain or successfully manage our anticipated growth, our business and prospects will be harmed. The development of MosaiQ includes many factors, including factors beyond our control, and we may not commercialize it on a timely basis, or at all. • • • Obtaining regulatory authorization for MosaiQ will take time and require material expenditures and ultimately may not succeed. • MosaiQ Microarrays have not been manufactured on a commercial scale and are subject to unforeseen scale-up risks. • The third parties on which we rely to conduct studies of MosaiQ and our other transfusion diagnostics products may not perform as expected. • Our commercial success will largely depend upon the degree of market acceptance of MosaiQ. • We are dependent on our distributor relationship with Ortho to commercialize MosaiQ in the patient transfusion diagnostics market. • Our efforts to commercialize MosaiQ in other markets by entering into additional arrangements with third parties may not succeed. Competitive products or technological developments may make MosaiQ less competitive or obsolete. • • Our near-term success depends on our ability to expand our customer base and introduce new conventional reagent products. • We are dependent upon our three largest OEM clients for a substantial portion of our total revenues. • Gross margin volatility in our conventional reagent business may negatively impact our profitability. • If we are not able to manage our network of direct sales representatives, this may result in lower anticipated sales of our current or future products. • Development or manufacturing problems or delays could limit the growth of our revenue or increase our losses. • The transfusion diagnostics market is highly competitive. If we fail to compete effectively, our business and operating results will suffer. • We depend on a limited number of third-party suppliers for certain components and materials used in our products. • A disruption to any of our manufacturing facilities could adversely affect our business and operating results. • We generate a substantial portion of our revenue internationally and are subject to various risks relating to our international activities. • We face risks related to public health threats, including the current COVID-19 pandemic, which could significantly disrupt our operations and could have a material adverse impact on us. • Our debt and other financings contain restrictive covenants and other provisions that may limit our operating flexibility. • Undetected errors or defects in our products could expose us to risks. • A security breach or other significant disruption to our information technology system could materially disrupt our operations and any failure to comply with applicable privacy laws could result in losses. • We may be unable to retain and motivate our senior management or recruit additional qualified personnel. • Our failure to successfully manage acquisitions or investments could have a material adverse effect on us. • We may enter into collaborations, agreements or partnerships with third parties that may not succeed. - 3 - Risks Related to Government Regulation • Significant changes to legislation, government policies, rules and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business. • Our products and operations are subject to extensive foreign and domestic regulation. • A failure to comply with regulatory requirements or unanticipated problems with our products could result in restrictions or withdrawal from the market. • Approval and/or clearance by U.S. and foreign regulatory authorities for our transfusion diagnostics products may require significant time and expenditures. • Our use of biological and hazardous materials and wastes requires us to comply with regulatory requirements, and subjects us to significant costs and exposes us to potential liabilities. Risks Related to Intellectual Property • Our ability to comprehensively protect our products and technologies through intellectual property rights that we own, acquire or license is uncertain. • Obtaining and maintaining our patent protection depends on our compliance with various requirements, and our patent protection could be reduced or eliminated for non-compliance with these requirements. • Our intellectual property rights may not be sufficient to protect our competitive position and to prevent others from manufacturing, using or selling competing products. • MosaiQ depends on certain technologies that are licensed to us. We do not control these technologies and any loss of our rights to them could prevent us from manufacturing our products. • We may become involved in disputes relating to our intellectual property rights or face claims that our business activities infringe the intellectual property rights of others. • We may be subject to claims that our employees have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of their former employers. Risks Related to Our Ordinary Shares • We are eligible to be treated as a smaller reporting company and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable thereto could • • make our ordinary shares less attractive to investors. The price of our ordinary shares is likely to be volatile, and purchasers of our ordinary shares could incur substantial losses. Substantial future sales of our ordinary shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the price of our ordinary shares to decline. • We have never paid cash dividends and do not intend to pay cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. • The potentially dilutive effect of our warrants, options and Convertible Notes could have an adverse effect on the future market price of our ordinary shares or otherwise adversely affect the interests of our ordinary shareholders. Risks Related to Being a Jersey, Channel Islands Company Listing Ordinary Shares • Our ordinary shares are issued under the laws of Jersey, Channel Islands, which may not provide the level of legal certainty • and transparency afforded by incorporation in the United States. There could be tax consequences which could have a negative effect on our profitability or result in material adverse consequences to U.S. investors in our ordinary shares. • U.S. shareholders may not be able to enforce civil liabilities against us. - 4 - Item 1. Business Overview PART I We are a commercial-stage diagnostics company committed to reducing healthcare costs and improving patient care through the provision of innovative ways to test within established markets. Our initial focus is on blood grouping and donor disease screening, which is commonly referred to as transfusion diagnostics. Blood grouping involves specific procedures performed at donor or patient testing laboratories to characterize blood, which includes antigen typing and antibody detection. Disease screening involves the screening of donor blood for unwanted pathogens using two different methods, a serological approach (testing for specific antigens or antibodies) and a molecular approach (testing for DNA or RNA). We believe that MosaiQ, our proprietary technology platform, may also have application beyond transfusion diagnostics in the larger clinical diagnostics market where testing currently performed using separate immunoassay and molecular testing techniques for a single diagnosis could be combined on one testing technology permitting multiple tests simultaneously with a simplified workflow. We have over 35 years of experience developing, manufacturing and commercializing conventional reagent products used for blood grouping within the global transfusion diagnostics market. We are developing MosaiQ to better address the comprehensive needs of this large and established market. MosaiQ will initially comprise two separate microarrays, one for immunohematology (blood grouping), or IH, and one for serological disease screening, or SDS, and a high-throughput instrument. We are also developing a third microarray for molecular disease screening. We believe MosaiQ has the potential to transform transfusion diagnostics, significantly reducing the cost of blood testing in the donor and patient testing environments, while improving patient outcomes. We have designed MosaiQ to offer a breadth of diagnostic tests that is unmatched by existing commercially available transfusion diagnostic instrument platforms. Time to result for MosaiQ is expected to be significantly quicker than existing methods for extended antigen typing and antibody detection and is expected to be equivalent to the time to result for current instrument platforms performing basic antigen typing. We believe that customer adoption of MosaiQ will lead to improved patient outcomes through better and easier matching of donor and patient blood, given cost-effective extended antigen typing offered by MosaiQ. Improved patient outcomes using MosaiQ include the potential for reduced incidence of alloimmunization, where the patient develops antibodies to foreign antigens introduced to the body through transfused blood. Cost savings and efficiencies should also be available to customers that adopt MosaiQ, as a result of: consolidation of multiple instrument platforms in donor testing laboratories; automation, which will help to address shortages of skilled technicians; better workflow, which will lead to a better cost position, addressing budget constraints; comprehensive characterization of donor or patient blood, eliminating the need for routine manual testing typically undertaken by skilled technicians; and higher throughput and productivity per square meter. We have designed MosaiQ to match the existing performance of automated platforms used by donor testing laboratories for serological disease screening. We also believe the incorporation of molecular disease screening on MosaiQ will offer considerable advantages over existing approaches in use by donor testing laboratories, delivering operational cost savings and a reduced time to result, while also eliminating the need to pool samples. Our initial aim is to provide donor testing laboratories with a single instrument platform to be utilized for blood grouping and, if applicable, both serological and molecular disease screening for donated red blood cells and plasma. Based on historical annual blood donations collected by our key target donor testing customers, we estimate that the potential market for MosaiQ microarrays (for blood grouping, serological disease screening and molecular disease screening) should exceed 100 million microarrays per annum following receipt of applicable regulatory clearances and approvals for MosaiQ. We also believe that MosaiQ may have the potential for use beyond transfusion diagnostics in the larger clinical diagnostics market, and are evaluating the potential for our technology as a platform for diagnosis and monitoring of other disease states. We have identified opportunities for future partnership and development in relation to disease states for which a broad array of tests are required using multiple testing modalities for a single diagnosis or for ongoing therapy monitoring. - 5 - We have a proven track record and significant expertise in product development, manufacturing and quality assurance, tailored to the highly regulated transfusion diagnostics market. We currently derive revenue from a portfolio of products used for blood grouping, as well as whole blood controls used daily for quality assurance testing of third-party blood grouping instruments. We have introduced a range of FDA-licensed products in the United States under the Quotient brand, which we sell directly to donor testing laboratories, hospitals and independent patient testing laboratories. We also develop, manufacture and sell conventional reagent products to original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, such as Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc. (or Ortho), Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. (or Bio-Rad) and Grifols S.A. (or Grifols). In July and December 2019, the FDA licensed a range of conventional reagent products developed and manufactured by us for use on instrument platforms commercialized by Ortho. From our incorporation in 2012 to March 31, 2021, we have raised $160.0 million of gross proceeds through the private placement of our ordinary and preference shares and warrants, $433.0 million of gross proceeds from public offerings of our ordinary shares and issuances of ordinary shares upon exercise of warrants and $145.0 million of gross proceeds from the issuance of 12% Senior Secured Notes due 2024 (which we refer to as the Secured Notes). In addition, on March 23, 2018, we raised $20.9 million from the sale and leaseback of our recently completed conventional reagents manufacturing facility near Edinburgh, Scotland, which we refer to as the Allan Robb Campus, or ARC, facility. Our Market Opportunity The global transfusion diagnostics market is large and well established. Total annual product sales in this market amounted to $3.4 billion in 2018, of which the United States accounted for $0.9 billion of sales. Product sales comprise the sale of kits and reagents and instruments. In 2018, we believe blood grouping accounted for $1.4 billion of product sales, disease screening using serological methods accounted for $0.9 billion of sales and disease screening using molecular methods accounted for $1.1 billion of sales. We believe product sales in 2018 to the highly concentrated donor testing market, which includes diagnostic laboratories, accounted for approximately $2.3 billion of sales, while patient testing and others accounted for the remaining $1.1 billion of sales. Performed primarily within hospitals, the patient testing market is highly fragmented. According to the World Health Organization, 45 million blood donations were collected globally in 2018 within “high-income” countries located in North America, Europe and Eastern Asia. In the United States, between 11 and 12 million units of whole blood and red blood cells were donated during 2018, based on data from the American Association of Blood Banks and the American Red Cross. In addition, over 50 million plasma donations are collected each year in the United States and Europe. Plasma is subject to blood grouping and disease screening. We estimate that over 90 million patients are blood grouped annually in the developed world, although less than half of these patients actually receive a blood transfusion. Combined, the cost of procuring and characterizing blood for transfusion represents a significant cost to the global healthcare system. The costs and expenses related to blood grouping and disease screening are typically included in the price a hospital pays for a unit of blood. In the United States, the average price paid by a hospital for a unit of red blood cells is approximately $207, based on the 2017 National Blood Collection and Utilization Survey. Where a hospital requests units of blood with a specific antigen profile (for patients with blood group antibodies) the average price of those antigen negative units of blood in the United States is estimated to increase by $80 for each antigen screened. The costs and expenses related to patient blood grouping at hospitals are not specifically reimbursed by a third party payor, but are typically absorbed within the reimbursement structure of a broader medical procedure. According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services 2020 laboratory fee schedule, the reimbursement rate for outpatient services associated with basic antigen typing and an antibody screen is $50 per sample. When an antibody screen is positive, an antibody identification procedure will be undertaken on the patient sample for which the reimbursement rate is an additional $283 per sample. Blood grouping and disease screening techniques have remained generally unchanged for many years. Varying levels of automation are offered by existing instrument platforms, although more complex blood grouping procedures such as extended antigen typing and antibody identification are more typically undertaken manually, especially in the United States. The need for ongoing routine manual testing continues to impose a significant cost burden on the healthcare system. Beyond transfusion diagnostics we plan to pursue the development of immunoassay and molecular testing opportunities for the MosaiQ platform technology within the broader clinical diagnostics market place, forecasted to reach $40 billion annually by 2023. The industry and market data, forecasts and estimates used in this section and elsewhere in this Annual Report had been published before or do not otherwise take into account the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore do not reflect any impact of COVID-19 on any specific market or globally. - 6 - Our Strategy Our strategy is based on the development and commercialization of a flexible and unique microarray technology and manufacturing capability for serological and molecular testing across a broad array of medical and life science applications. Our initial strategic focus is on the development and commercialization of a range of consumables (or microarrays) to address the global transfusion diagnostics market. Each microarray will incorporate existing, well characterized assays to undertake: (i) (ii) a comprehensive characterization of donor and patient blood, including extended antigen typing and antibody detection/identification. Ultimately, we expect there to be two blood grouping microarrays, one for the donor testing market and one for the patient testing market. We refer to the blood grouping microarrays as the MosaiQ IH Microarray; all mandated serological disease screening tests for donor red blood cells or source plasma. We refer to the serological disease screening microarrays as the MosaiQ SDS Microarray. The initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray will comprise assays to detect CMV (cytomegalovirus) and Syphilis. We expect to follow our initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray launch with the launch of a range of additional expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarrays incorporating all remaining mandated serological disease screening assays, depending upon the final application for the product; and (iii) all mandated molecular disease screening tests for donor red cells or source plasma. We refer to the molecular disease screening microarray as the MosaiQ MDS Microarray. In May 2020, we completed development of the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray, which we developed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray is designed as a serological disease screening microarray specific to COVID-19 antibody detection. The assay detects the Immunoglobulin G (IgG) and Immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies directed at SARS-CoV-2. We are also developing for Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics Inc. (or Ortho), a dedicated MosaiQ IH Microarray optimized for the patient transfusion market (which we refer to as the MosaiQ IH3 Microarray), and we expect to submit it for CE mark in the first half of calendar year 2022. Together, we refer to the MosaiQ IH Microarray, MosaiQ SDS Microarray, MosaiQ MDS Microarray, MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray and MosaiQ IH3 Microarray as MosaiQ Microarrays. We manufacture the MosaiQ Microarrays at our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility located in Eysins, Switzerland, which received its ISO 13485: 2016 certification in December 2018. Quotient completed the CE marking self-certification for the MosaiQ Instrument in 2018 in relation with the submission for CE mark of the initial MosaiQ IH Microarray. Our launch sequence is: (i) an expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray comprising an expanded antigen typing panel for the donor testing market; (ii) a second expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray comprising the extended antigen typing panel and an expanded antibody detection panel for the patient testing market; and (iii) an expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarray, the menu for which will vary according to local regulatory requirements. In Europe, the MosaiQ Instrument, the initial MosaiQ IH Microarray and the initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray have received, and the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray, the expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarray, the MosaiQ MDS Microarray, and the corresponding MosaiQ instrument upgrades, will be subject to, CE Marking. In the United States, we submitted 510(k) filings in respect of the initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray, comprising tests for CMV and Syphilis, and the MosaiQ Instrument in December 2019. On December 10, 2020, we received a request from the FDA for additional testing data related to specific individual performance characteristics of the assays on this microarray. We anticipate that we will resubmit our filing and receive 510(k) clearance for the initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray during calendar year 2021 The MosaiQ Instrument is classified as a Class II medical device by the FDA. The FDA has also indicated to us that the MosaiQ IH Microarray and the expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarray will be subject to biologics license applications, or BLAs. In April 2019, we received CE Mark approval for the initial MosaiQ IH Microarray, and in February 2020, we received CE Mark approval for the initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray. We commenced field trials for the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray in Europe in the first quarter of calendar year 2020. These trials were initially suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, but by the end of May 2020, quarantine and containment measures and restrictions had eased in all three trial locations allowing the work to recommence. However, subsequent governmental restrictions implemented towards the end of 2020 have impacted our ability to conduct these trials, as discussed below. We announced the initial results from these trials in November 2020. Based on our internal performance testing, we subsequently determined to enhance a limited number of the tests on the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray. We now expect to make the initial European regulatory submissions for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray during the third quarter of calendar year 2021. The commencement of field trials in the United States for the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray has also been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect these trials to commence in the second half of calendar year 2021, with the U.S. - 7 - regulatory submissions following in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2021 or first quarter of calendar year 2022. We expect field trials for the expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarray to commence towards the end of calendar year 2021 and we expect to make a European regulatory submission for the expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarray in the second quarter of calendar year 2022, with the U.S. regulatory submission following in the second or third quarter of calendar year 2022. In addition, we are developing the MosaiQ IH3 Microarray for Ortho, and we expect to submit it for CE mark in the first half of calendar year 2022. Furthermore, on April 27, 2020, we published the final performance data for the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray, achieving 100% sensitivity and 99.8% specificity, and on May 1, 2020, we announced the CE Mark for this Microarray. In addition, in May 2020, we submitted an application to the FDA for an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray in the United States, and in September 2020, we announced the EUA had been issued by the FDA for this Microarray. We signed the first commercial contract for the sale of the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray in May 2020, and we have subsequently entered into nine additional contracts with customers in Europe and the United States. In addition, we developed an enhanced, semi-quantitative MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray, which has been CE marked as of January 29, 2021. In our conventional reagent business, we have FDA approvals to sell 82 reagent products in the United States and have 75 products with a CE Mark. Through this business, we intend to continue to strengthen the Quotient brand, expand our customer base, reinforce our relationship with the FDA and other key regulators and continue to service our key OEM and direct customers. Blood Grouping Prior to blood transfusion, or when there is likelihood that a blood transfusion might be required, extensive blood grouping procedures are undertaken on patient and donor blood using in vitro diagnostic products. These procedures ascertain the blood group of the patient and ensure the compatibility of donor blood. The testing regime is designed to prevent transfusion reactions, which can range from mild to fatal. Red blood cells (the cellular portion) and plasma (the fluid portion) are the principal components of blood. On the exterior of red blood cells are blood group antigens that determine an individual’s blood group (A, B, AB, O), or ABO group, and type (RhD positive or RhD negative), or Rh type. In addition, there are other clinically significant blood group antigens that may be present on patient and donor red blood cells. Plasma contains many different kinds of proteins, including: (i) blood group antibodies, such as Anti-A and Anti-B; (ii) unexpected blood group antibodies developed by the body in response to foreign red blood cell antigens introduced during transfusion (alloantibodies); or (iii) blood group antibodies developed following pregnancy. Blood group antibodies mirror the antigen families that are present on red blood cells. In its normal state, blood does not contain antibodies that will react with its own red blood cell antigens (autoantibodies). Because of the potential for a transfusion reaction, it is crucial that clinicians correctly identify the blood group antigens and antibodies present in donor and patient blood prior to transfusion. If a donor’s red blood cells contain antigens that are recognized by and react with existing blood group antibodies in the patient’s plasma, the transfused red blood cells could be destroyed in a potentially life-threatening reaction. The identification of blood group antigens on donor and patient red blood cells is typically referred to as blood typing or basic antigen typing, with a more comprehensive characterization being referred to as extended antigen typing. The identification of blood group antibodies in plasma is typically referred to as antibody identification. All patients potentially requiring a blood transfusion will generally be blood grouped, including pregnant women, cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, patients undergoing surgery or patients suffering from chronic diseases that require regular blood transfusions, such as thalassemia or sickle cell disease. Patient blood will typically be subject to a basic antigen typing and an antibody screen. Less than 1% of patients that have not received a blood transfusion will screen positive for an antibody. The incidence of blood group antibodies, however, increases significantly to 3 to 8% in patients who have previously received a blood transfusion and women that have given birth to two or more children. When an antibody screen proves positive, a complex and time-consuming procedure will be performed by skilled technicians to identify all clinically significant blood group antibodies in the patient’s plasma. This largely manual process may take two to six hours to complete, although more complex cases can take one or more days to complete. Antibody identification represents a significant cost to hospitals, particularly those that treat large numbers of chronically transfused patients. Reagents used for antibody identification also have a short shelf life, typically being shipped on a 28-day cycle, making management of blood grouping reagent inventories more complex with increased waste. - 8 - The increasing incidence of alloantibodies developing in patients who have received multiple transfusions, commonly referred to as alloimmunization, has prompted clinicians to request costly, extended antigen matching of donor blood for at-risk patient groups, such as those suffering from thalassemia or sickle cell disease. The incidence of antibodies present in these patient groups is estimated to be 20 to 30%. These patients typically also present with multiple antibodies, making the process of antibody identification more complex and time consuming and the procurement of antigen specific units of donor blood much more expensive. According to a study published in January 2014, the estimated total cost of extended antigen typing for patients is $364, based on a screen for 14 antigens at an estimated cost of $26 per antigen. Donor blood will typically be subject to a basic antigen typing and an antibody screen. Clinicians will request specific antigen negative donor blood for patients with one or more blood group antibodies. In this instance, multiple donor units will be selected from inventory by the donor collection agency and subjected to an extended antigen typing procedure to identify the most appropriate units for the patient. This procedure is completed to ensure that the corresponding antigen to the patient’s antibody is not present on the donor’s red blood cells. The number of donor units that need to be screened to identify specific antigen negative units varies depending upon blood group. In the Caucasian population, for example, ten donor units on average would need to be screened to find two units of donor blood negative for the Duffy-A antigen. Similarly, to identify two units of donor blood negative for the little-e antigen, one hundred donations would need to be screened and, to identify two units of blood negative for the little-k antigen one thousand donations would need to be screened. Additionally, the number of units needed to be screened increases significantly if the patient has two or more antibodies. The identification of antigen negative units of blood is largely a manual and labor-intensive process. Because of the additional testing procedures required and the large numbers of donor units that must be screened, antigen negative donor units are more expensive for hospitals to purchase. The average premium charged for antigen negative units of blood in the United States is estimated to be $80 for each antigen screened. We believe both donor collection agencies and hospitals would prefer to fully characterize donor units and patient blood through extended antigen typing prior to transfusion, although the time and expense required to undertake such procedures is currently prohibitive. As a consequence, extended antigen typing is only undertaken as needed (i.e., where the patient has a specific antibody) on a small percentage of donor units. Extended antigen typing for patients is also typically undertaken only in patients expected to be chronically transfused. Disease Screening The safety of donor red blood cells and source plasma is ultimately the responsibility of donor collection agencies, with regulatory agencies in individual countries establishing safeguards and standards to ensure patient safety. In the developed world, donor red blood cells and source plasma is subject to mandatory screening for infectious diseases before it can be released for transfusion or further manufacture. Two different methods of testing have been adopted—a serological approach (testing for specific antigens or antibodies) and, for certain viruses, a molecular approach (testing for DNA or RNA). The United States, many countries in Western Europe and Japan require both serological and molecular disease screening be performed on donor blood. In the United States, it is mandatory to screen donor blood using serological techniques for the following: Syphilis, HBV Surface Antigen, HBV Core Antibody, HCV Antibody, HIV Type 1 and Type 2 Antibodies and HTLV Antibodies. Most blood collection agencies will also screen for CMV, using the same serological approach and the FDA recommends donor blood to be screened for Chagas disease. Molecular disease screening is required to be performed on donated blood to screen for HBV, HCV, HIV, West Nile virus, Babesia and Zika. Other pathogens, such as Dengue and Malaria are transmissible by blood, but there is no test currently available, given cost or technology limitations. Serological and molecular disease screening is already largely automated. However, it is typically undertaken using instrument platforms that are not integrated with commonly used blood grouping instruments. - 9 - Donor Testing In the developed world, the testing of donated blood is primarily completed by donor collection agencies. In the United States, following the merger of the testing laboratory operations of the American Red Cross with Creative Testing Solutions, effective on January 1, 2018, one organization tests approximately 75% of the U.S. blood supply. Throughout Western Europe, Japan, Australia and Canada, national collection agencies, or a small number of regional collection agencies, typically collect and test all donated blood. Currently, donor testing laboratories must adopt multiple instrument platforms, as well as undertake complex manual testing procedures for extended antigen typing or antibody identification, to complete the required testing for donated blood. Maintaining multiple instrument platforms requires complex quality control and assurance procedures, along with costly service and support infrastructures. Single instrument platforms for each testing procedure have typically been adopted within and across laboratory networks. In addition, donor testing laboratories typically utilize costly manual testing techniques to identify antigen negative donor units and to carry out any antibody identification procedures required. Patient Testing Patients are typically blood grouped in hospitals. Large-to-medium-sized hospitals will generally adopt one of several semi-automated instrument platforms to perform basic blood grouping procedures. These instruments employ either column agglutination technology supplied by companies such as Ortho, Bio-Rad and Grifols, or solid-phase microplate technologies supplied by companies such as Immucor. These platforms offer only a limited number of blood grouping tests per testing run and are therefore cumbersome, especially if a more comprehensive characterization of the patient’s blood is required. Consequently, laboratories that have adopted a blood grouping instrument platform will continue to use manual or semi-manual techniques to undertake more complex procedures, such as antibody identification or extended antigen typing. Because of the continued need for manual testing, many small-to-medium-sized hospitals choose not to adopt existing instrument platforms. Instead, they will use manual or semi-manual techniques for basic blood grouping. Complex procedures, such as antibody identification, may also be outsourced to independent testing laboratories by these hospitals. We believe the continued requirement for manual testing and drawbacks of existing instrument platforms for blood grouping have limited the attraction of offering blood grouping services to hospitals by large independent testing laboratories, such as LabCorp and Quest Diagnostics. The MosaiQ Solution for Transfusion Diagnostics We have initially developed MosaiQ to address the comprehensive needs of the global transfusion diagnostics market. We believe MosaiQ has the potential to transform transfusion diagnostics by substantially reducing costs and offering a range of operational efficiencies within donor and patient testing laboratories, while improving patient outcomes through the more complete characterization of donor and patient blood. Specifically, we have initially developed MosaiQ to: Comprehensively characterize donor and patient blood; and Screen donor blood for specific viruses using serological and molecular methods. We intend to pursue a “razor/razor blade” business model for MosaiQ, placing MosaiQ Instruments and securing long-term agreements for the supply of MosaiQ IH Microarrays and/or MosaiQ SDS Microarrays and MosaiQ MDS Microarrays used by those instruments. We expect donor and patient laboratories to adopt MosaiQ because it is designed to offer a comprehensive characterization of clinically significant blood group antigens and antibodies, while also offering the opportunity for substantial cost savings and a range of operational efficiencies. We believe these customers would prefer to more fully characterize the blood of all donors and patients to facilitate better blood matching. While MosaiQ is designed to be a highly cost-effective solution for our customers, delivering substantial cost savings, we also expect to generate attractive, long-term profit margins on the sale of MosaiQ Microarrays. We have designed MosaiQ leveraging our expertise in transfusion diagnostics. MosaiQ combines novel manufacturing techniques and well-characterized blood grouping and disease screening tests to create multiplex testing microarrays for use on a high-throughput instrument, the MosaiQ Instrument. Through miniaturization, we plan to combine a full portfolio of existing serological tests on two distinct microarrays for use on MosaiQ – one for blood grouping or immunohematology (or IH) and one for serological disease screening (or SDS). We are also developing a third microarray for molecular disease screening (or MDS). We expect there to be multiple variants of each microarray depending upon the stage of development and the end markets in which we expect the MosaiQ Microarrays will be adopted. - 10 - In a donor testing environment, the MosaiQ IH Microarray and the MosaiQ SDS Microarray have been designed to run simultaneously, utilizing the same donor sample and the same MosaiQ Instrument. The MosaiQ MDS Microarray would also be utilized in a donor testing environment. In a patient testing environment, only MosaiQ IH Microarrays would be utilized. Our novel approach incorporates existing, well-characterized tests for blood group antigens and antibodies on a single consumable for the global market. Each MosaiQ IH Microarray consists of two panels – one for antigen typing (comprising printed monoclonal antibodies) and one for antibody detection/identification (comprising printed human red blood cells). We believe MosaiQ, when launched, will be the only commercially available automation platform capable of offering this breadth of testing on a single consumable. The MosaiQ SDS Microarray has been designed to incorporate all tests required to meet current regulatory requirements for serological disease screening of donor blood and source plasma in the markets in which we intend to operate. Initially we will include tests to screen serologically for Syphilis and CMV, and subsequently in the expanded MosaiQ SDS microarray, we plan to include additional tests for HBV, HCV, HIV, HTLV and Chagas disease. The MosaiQ SDS Microarray has additional capacity to incorporate further serological disease screening tests should it be necessary in the future. The MosaiQ MDS Microarray is being designed to incorporate all mandated tests required to meet current regulatory requirements for molecular disease screening for donor blood and source plasma in the markets in which we intend to operate. We plan to include molecular tests to screen for HBV, HCV, HIV, West Nile virus, HEV and Zika. MosaiQ Microarrays are manufactured using a novel, patented printing technology we have further developed with TTP plc, or TTP, a leading European technology development company. This print technology enables us to industrialize the manufacture of MosaiQ Microarrays. We have an exclusive license for the use of this technology in our fields of use and we are not aware of any alternative technology suitable and commercially available for this purpose. We have developed a high-throughput, floor standing MosaiQ Instrument for use by both donor collection agencies and medium to large-sized hospitals. The MosaiQ Instrument has been designed to process up to 3,000 microarrays per day (assuming three eight- hour shifts), giving a capacity to test up to 1,500 donor samples (utilizing a MosaiQ IH Microarray and a MosaiQ SDS Microarray) or 3,000 patient samples (utilizing MosaiQ IH Microarrays only). The MosaiQ Instrument can complete the comprehensive characterization of donor or patient blood in less than 35 minutes and has the capability to prioritize urgent patient sample testing, commonly referred to as STAT testing. The MosaiQ Instrument is designed to fully automate blood grouping and perform a simultaneous serological disease screen in a donor testing laboratory. Consistent with the typical workflow of donor or patient testing laboratories, centrifuged tubes of whole blood will be placed on the MosaiQ Instrument for processing. The instrument will then complete a comprehensive blood group characterization of each sample, combined with a parallel serological disease screen in a donor testing environment, with the results being reported through existing laboratory information management systems (or LIMS). We have partnered with STRATEC, a leading global developer of diagnostics instruments, to design, develop and manufacture the MosaiQ Instrument. STRATEC has been operating for over 30 years and has significant experience designing, developing and manufacturing in vitro diagnostics instruments, including a number of existing instruments used today for blood grouping and disease screening. We are also collaborating with key potential donor and patient testing customers on the development of MosaiQ. This group includes the American Red Cross and Creative Testing Solutions, along with several other major hospitals, donor collection organizations and reference laboratories. COVID-19 Antibody Detection At the end of December 2019, Chinese public health authorities reported several cases of acute respiratory syndrome in Wuhan City, Hubei province, China. Chinese scientists soon identified a novel coronavirus as the main causative agent. The disease is now referred to as novel coronavirus disease 2019, or COVID-19, and the causative virus is called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, or SARS-CoV-2. The virus is a new strain of coronavirus that has not been previously identified in humans. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. - 11 - SARS-CoV-2 is a beta coronavirus that causes COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 is mainly transmitted through droplets and contact routes, and the virus infects human cells via binding to angiotensin converting enzyme 2, or ACE2. Infection with SARS-CoV-2 can cause mild symptoms including a runny nose, sore throat, cough and fever. However, symptoms can be more severe for some people and can lead to pneumonia or breathing difficulties. The elderly and people with pre-existing medical conditions (such as, diabetes and heart disease) appear to be more vulnerable to becoming severely ill with the virus. Based on previous studies on SARS, an incubation period from three to 14 days after onset of symptoms may be expected. Specific antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 may be detectable in COVID-19 patients during the symptomatic phase of the disease after RNA is no longer detectable. The persistence of IgG antibodies allows identification of people who have been infected in the past, and likely have recovered from the illness. It is not yet fully known if IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 confer immunity to re-infection. We believe IgG detection and other serological assays will play an important role in the research and surveillance of SARS-CoV-2, including post-vaccination, and we have developed and commercialized our MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray to address these needs. Our Conventional Reagent Business We have over 35 years of experience in the development, manufacturing and commercialization of conventional reagent products for blood grouping. Our conventional reagent products, which are branded as Alba by Quotient, are used primarily to identify blood group antigens and antibodies in donor and patient blood and to perform daily quality assurance testing for third-party blood grouping instrument platforms. We also undertake product development projects for our OEM customers, generating product development fees. Following development, we enter into long-term supply contracts with our OEM customers to manufacture and supply the products we have developed. We currently develop, manufacture and commercialize the following key products: Antisera Products —These products contain antibodies used to identify blood group antigens. The majority of our antisera products are monoclonal antibodies manufactured from master cell lines we own; Reagent Red Blood Cells —These products are composed of human red blood cells formulated to enable the identification of blood group antibodies. We source human red blood cells with the desired antigen profiles globally, primarily from donor collection organizations; Whole Blood Controls —We are an industry leader in the development and manufacture of whole blood control products, with a significant relationship with Ortho and other major OEM customers. These products contain both human red blood cells and antisera specifically formulated for use as daily quality assurance tests on third-party blood grouping instrument platforms; and Ancillary Products —These products and solutions are used to support blood grouping, but are not directly involved in blood group determination. They include Anti-Human Globulin, enhancement media, and kits for training and staff certification. We manufacture our conventional reagent products at our Allan Robb Campus (ARC) facility located near Edinburgh, Scotland using our own cell lines or from raw materials purchased from a limited number of suppliers. We believe we have good relationships with our suppliers. Our Customers In the United States, we currently offer directly to our customers a portfolio of 79 conventional reagent products focused on blood grouping. Conventional reagent products sold in the United States under the Quotient brand include antisera products, reagent red blood cells and other ancillary products. We currently serve 1,125 hospitals, donor collection agencies and independent testing laboratory customers throughout the United States. Global direct sales, including sales to distributors, accounted for 35% of our product sales in the year ended March 31, 2021, and 33% of our product sales in the year ended March 31, 2020. We sell the majority of our conventional reagent products to our OEM customers for use with their blood grouping instruments as specific tests or controls. Products sold to OEM customers range from bulk material incorporated into the customer’s own products to finished, vialled products sold under our customer’s label. We retain ownership of the intellectual property for these finished, vialled products and their associated regulatory licenses. OEM customers accounted for 65% of product sales in the year ended March 31, 2021 and 67% of product sales in the year ended March 31, 2020. We have long-standing relationships with three leading global transfusion diagnostics companies: Ortho, Bio-Rad and Grifols. - 12 - We have developed several conventional reagent products launched by Ortho over the past five years. As a result, Ortho accounted for 60% and 61% of our product sales in the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We have recently developed a range of rare antisera products for use on Ortho’s instrument platforms. These products have now received CE Marking for sale in Europe and have been approved for sale in the United States by the FDA. We also sell a range of whole blood control products, red blood cell products and ancillary products to Ortho worldwide, many of which have been launched over the past five years. MosaiQ Manufacturing and Supply We have leased a facility in Eysins, Switzerland (near Geneva), which is the initial manufacturing site for MosaiQ Microarrays. TTP plc (“TTP”) We have entered into an exclusive, royalty-bearing, worldwide license with TTP to certain patented technologies and trade secrets to enable high volume manufacturing of MosaiQ Microarrays. The license is for uses that include antigen typing, antibody detection and serological disease screening of donated blood for infectious diseases (collectively, the initial purpose), as well as all human blood sample diagnostic testing on batch processing instruments (collectively, the additional purposes), with the exception of companion diagnostics, epigenetics and nucleic acid sequencing. Pursuant to this license agreement, we are paying TTP a $10 million license fee (the TTP License Fee), which is payable in installments through September 30, 2021. We have paid $5.5 million under this agreement to date, with the balance due in September 2021, but with an option to defer $3.0 million to September 2022. Should we elect to defer the payment of the $3 million, the total payable under the license agreement will increase by $0.5 million. The additional $0.5 million will also be payable in September 2022. If the TTP License Fee payments are not made by us when due, we will lose the license to the additional purposes, but not to the initial purpose. We will pay a low single digit royalty to TTP based on our net sales for 20 years or for so long as the licensed intellectual property is protected by patent in the country of sale. We began paying this royalty during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 in connection with the commercialization of the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray. TTP has also granted us a non-exclusive, fully paid, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide license to use certain other intellectual property TTP owns and has incorporated into bespoke components of the manufacturing system for MosaiQ Microarrays. The agreement will remain in effect so long as the licensed intellectual property is subject to patent or other intellectual property protection. TTP may terminate the agreement if we assist another party in disputing the validity and/or scope of any of TTP’s patented intellectual property covered by the agreement. Either party may terminate the agreement with immediate effect by notice to the other party upon the occurrence of bankruptcy events. Any fee disputes are subject to mandatory dispute resolution. STRATEC SE (formerly STRATEC Biomedical AG) (“STRATEC”) We have entered into a manufacturing agreement with STRATEC pursuant to which we are required to purchase a fixed minimum number of MosaiQ Instruments during the six years following completion of the development contract. We estimate our aggregate remaining obligation under this agreement to total $68.8 million using exchange rates on March 31, 2021. The agreement is terminable by either party for certain breaches by the other party or in the event of certain bankruptcy events involving the other party. If STRATEC terminates the manufacturing agreement, certain termination payments are payable by us depending upon the number of the instruments purchased at the time of termination, and we are also responsible for certain costs. We also entered into a development agreement with STRATEC pursuant to which it developed the MosaiQ Instrument. Pursuant to the development agreement, STRATEC has granted us an irrevocable, fully-paid, perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide license to intellectual property that is developed for use by, or the manufacture of, the MosaiQ Instrument, as well as an exclusive right to market and sell the MosaiQ Instrument. STRATEC has additionally granted us, or agreed to grant, similar rights to its pre-existing technologies for use in development and manufacturing activities for the MosaiQ Instrument. We may only exercise our rights to manufacture in limited circumstances when STRATEC fails to perform under the manufacturing agreement and such rights are subject to a to be negotiated license fee. Quality Our quality function (composed of quality assurance, quality control and validation) oversees the quality of our manufacturing as well as the quality systems used in research and development and sales and marketing. We have established a control system that oversees implementation and maintenance, document control, supplier qualification, corrective and preventative actions, as well as employee training processes that we believe ensures quality across our operations. We continuously monitor and seek to improve quality over time and believe the implementation of these processes has supported product performance, customer satisfaction, and a culture of continuous improvement. - 13 - Sales, Marketing and Distribution We market our conventional reagent products directly in the United States. Outside of this territory, we sell our products to a range of third-party distributors and OEM customers. In the United States, we use a combination of sales managers, sales representatives, customer service staff and technical experts to interact with laboratory managers and administrative staff, purchasing directors, medical directors and other individuals and groups involved in the implementation of blood testing programs. We market our MosaiQ products directly in both Europe and the United States through a similar combination of field based sales representatives and technical experts, supported by client services staff. Our goal is to educate our customers about the technical and economic benefits of switching from competing offerings to our products. Our customer service staff and technical experts are also involved in the practical training of customers, as well as answering customer questions. These teams are supported by various marketing activities, which include advertising, medical education, attendance at scientific meetings and other awareness-raising activities. As of March 31, 2021, we had 40 employees engaged worldwide in sales, marketing and customer service functions. Research and Development Our research and development efforts are focused on the further development of MosaiQ and new conventional reagent products. We believe we have assembled an experienced research and development team with the scientific talent needed to develop new products that leverage our significant blood grouping expertise. We believe our experience in developing tests based on existing serological testing methods will allow us to conceive, develop and validate comprehensive multiplex tests utilizing MosaiQ. As of March 31, 2021, we had 182 employees engaged in research and development functions. Customer Funding and Reimbursement In the United States, our transfusion products are not directly subject to reimbursement by governmental or commercial third-party payors for health care services. The costs and expenses related to donor blood grouping and disease screening are typically included in the price to a hospital of a unit of blood. The costs and expenses related to patient blood grouping at hospitals are not specifically reimbursed by a third-party payor, but absorbed within the reimbursement structure of a broader medical procedure. We supply products to our customers, including hospitals, donor testing laboratories, independent testing laboratories and OEM customers based on negotiated prices. Competition In the past 15 to 20 years, the transfusion diagnostics market has experienced considerable consolidation, particularly in the United States. Given significant barriers to entry, there are only a small number of vendors currently addressing this market. These vendors can be divided into four groups: (i) those offering instrument platforms for blood grouping and related microarrays, in addition to conventional reagent products for manual testing; (ii) those only offering conventional reagent products for manual blood grouping; (iii) those offering raw materials for inclusion in products used on instrument platforms for blood grouping and in conventional reagent products; and (iv) those offering instruments for disease screening and related microarrays. A small number of donor collection agencies continue to manufacture a limited range of products, primarily for internal use. In our view, barriers to entry for the transfusion diagnostics market include: the need to manufacture a broad range of complex antisera products, with annual volume requirements ranging from hundreds of milliliters to hundreds of liters, depending upon individual blood group specificities; the ability to reliably procure and formulate red blood cell donations with the appropriate antigen profiles to support the manufacture of red blood cells for antibody identification and whole blood control products; rigorous global regulatory requirements; and customers who can be reluctant to change product suppliers. Our principal competitors in the United States are Immucor, Ortho and Grifols. The principal market participants in Europe are Bio- Rad, Ortho, Grifols and Immucor and the principal market participants in Japan are Ortho and Immucor. For serological disease screening, only two vendors have instruments approved for sale in the United States – Abbott and Ortho. Outside the United States, Abbott, Ortho, Roche and Bio-Rad are the principal instrument providers for serological disease screening. For molecular disease screening, only two vendors have instruments approved for sale in the United States – Grifols and Roche. Outside the United States, Grifols and Roche are the principal instrument providers for molecular disease screening. - 14 - For COVID-19 antibody detection, our principal competitors are Roche, Abbott, Ortho, Siemens, Bio-Rad and Euroimmun. For products sold to OEM customers, the cost of switching vendors (raw material and/or finished costs) can be considerable, given regulatory scrutiny of the manufacturing process and the potential need to modify instrument platforms and software. For our OEM business, we consider Merck/Millipore and Diagast to be our primary competitors. We are also a customer of each of these two organizations. We believe the complexity and high cost of switching suppliers, together with our ownership of key products and associated regulatory licenses, reduce the risk of loss of our important OEM business. We believe the FDA-licensed status of our manufacturing facility also offers major benefits as our key OEM customers seek to either establish or defend their position in the United States market. Intellectual Property We have relied, and expect to continue to rely, on various exclusive and non-exclusive license agreements, granting rights to patent- protected technologies relating to the manufacture of MosaiQ Microarrays and instruments. We have entered into an exclusive license with TTP to patented technologies to enable high volume manufacture of MosaiQ Microarrays. In addition, STRATEC has agreed to grant us licenses to certain of its pre-existing technologies and has granted us licenses to technologies developed under our development agreement with it, for use in the sale of MosaiQ instruments, and in the development and manufacture of the MosaiQ instrument, which it will undertake on our behalf. See “Business— MosaiQ Manufacturing and Supply—TTP plc” and “—STRATEC SE” for additional information about these agreements. These licenses are material to the development and commercialization of MosaiQ. The remaining lives of the patents for key existing technologies that we have licensed currently exceed 10 years. We have an issued U.S. patent related to blood typing that expires in September 2027. This patent provides methods of detecting the presence of red blood cells coated (or sensitized) with host antibody and/or components of the complement system. We received counterpart patents for this U.S. patent in Canada, Europe, Australia and Japan, which also expire in September 2027. In February 2015, we filed two patent applications which are now the subject of issued US patents. The first provides a new method for detecting red blood cells thereby providing a basis of positive controls to confirm the addition of red blood cells to a microarray, and the second, which is also the subject of issued patents in a number of countries, provides for crossmatching blood samples, finding particular application in immunological assays, where it can be used to assess compatibility of donor and patient blood. In November 2015, we filed a patent application providing for a purification method which can be applied to sourcing antibodies from human material, the result of which can be used in the manufacture of the MosaiQ Microarrays. In January 2018, we filed a provisional U.S. patent application relating to methods and kits for detecting nucleic acids, antigens and antibodies in a sample using a microarray platform, in addition to a method for the amplification of nucleic acids. We made a further filing in December 2018 designating the European Patent Office as the International Searching Authority for this patent application. During the year ended March 31, 2021 we filed five new patent applications related to assay, manufacturing processes and software related inventions. We also rely upon copyright protection, trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovation and licensing opportunities to develop and maintain our competitive position. Our success will depend in part on our ability to obtain patent protection for our products and processes, to preserve our copyrights and trade secrets, and to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties. We have developed several conventional reagent products launched by Ortho over the past five years. We generally retain ownership of the intellectual property for these products and their associated regulatory licenses. - 15 - Government Regulation In the United States, medical products are subject to extensive regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA. The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or the FDC Act, the Public Health Service Act, or the PHSA, and other federal and state statutes and regulations, govern, among other things, the research, development, testing, manufacture, storage, recordkeeping, approval, labeling, promotion and marketing, distribution, post-approval monitoring and reporting, sampling, and import and export of medical products. Prior to marketing certain medical products, manufacturers are required to obtain permission from the FDA via a product approval or clearance. Failure to comply with applicable U.S. requirements may subject a company to a variety of administrative or judicial sanctions, such as FDA refusal to file submissions, refusal to approve or clear products, warning or untitled letters, product recalls, field actions, product seizures, total or partial suspension of production or distribution, refusal to permit the importation of product, injunctions, fines, civil penalties, and criminal prosecution. The FDA regulates in vitro diagnostic, or IVD, products intended to evaluate blood as either biological products or medical devices. In general, reagents used to identify blood types, including extended antigen typing, and detect and identify antibodies in plasma, as well as assays intended for disease screening of the blood supply are regulated as biological products, while the instruments that conduct the analyses and quality assurance products intended to test the accuracy of instrument platforms are regulated as medical devices. The European Commission is the legislative body responsible for directives with which manufacturers selling medical products in the European Union and the European Economic Area, or EEA, must comply. The European Union includes most of the major countries in Europe, while other countries, such as Switzerland, are not part of the EEA and have voluntarily adopted laws and regulations that generally mirror those of the European Union with respect to medical devices. The European Union has adopted directives that address regulation of the design, manufacture, labeling, clinical studies and post-market vigilance for medical devices, including IVDs. Devices that comply with the requirements of a relevant directive, including the IVD Directive (Directive 98/79/ EC), will be entitled to bear the CE conformity marking, indicating that the device conforms to the essential requirements of the applicable directives and, accordingly, can be marketed throughout the European Union and EEA. On May 26, 2017, the European Union adopted a new regulatory framework, the In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR 2017/746), or IVDR, which replaces the IVD Directive. Our products in the European Union will have to comply with the IVDR requirements after May 26, 2022. Until that time, our products must continue to meet the requirements of IVD Directive for commercialization in the European Union. Outside of the United States and the European Union, regulatory pathways for the marketing of medical devices vary greatly from country to country. In many countries, local regulatory agencies conduct an independent review of IVD medical devices prior to granting marketing approval. The process in these countries may be lengthy and require the expenditure of significant resources, including the conduct of clinical trials. In other countries, the regulatory pathway may be shorter and/or less costly. The timeline for the introduction of new IVD medical devices is heavily impacted by these various regulations on a country-by-country basis, which may become more lengthy and costly over time. Environmental Matters Our operations require the use of hazardous materials, which, among other matters, subjects us to a variety of federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws, regulations and permitting requirements, including those relating to the handling, storage, transportation and disposal of biological and hazardous materials and wastes. The primary hazardous materials we handle or use include human blood samples and solvents. Some of the regulations under the current regulatory structure provide for strict liability, holding a party liable for contamination at currently and formerly owned, leased and operated sites and at third-party sites without regard to fault or negligence. We monitor our facilities carbon emissions, use of water, electricity and gas, as well as waste production and disposal, including maximizing opportunities to recycle waste streams.

Mr. Méndez received a Master of Business Administration degree from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management and a Bachelor’s degree in biomedical engineering from Boston University. Human Capital Resources As of March 31, 2021, we had 435 employees. Our workforce is located in Switzerland (38%), United Kingdom (56%), North America (4%), and other regions (2%). Approximately 46% of our employees are women. 12% of all employees have more than 10 years of service with us and 40% have over 5 years. We believe that developing a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture is critical to continuing to attract and retain the top talent necessary to deliver on our objectives. We believe that our future success largely depends upon our continued ability to attract and retain highly skilled employees, as well as highly qualified management and technical personnel. Employee engagement is important to us and we focus on continuously enhancing our corporate culture. We have surveyed our employees around culture, engagement, work environment, communication and other topics and work to incorporate and respond to their feedback. We intend to conduct a similar survey campaign in the next fiscal year to better understand our employees’ thoughts and ideas to further improve our workplaces. In order to support, attract and retain talent, we provide our employees with opportunities for career advancement. Our talent management approach is collaborative, encourages ownership, and provides the opportunity for everyone to contribute and develop through regular performance conversations, annual goal setting and ongoing feedback. In addition to growth opportunities, we strive to attract, motivate, and retain top talent by providing competitive compensation and incentive programs while rewarding outcomes and behaviors that align with our performance, culture, values and leadership principles. Our employees are not unionized. However, employees at our facilities in Switzerland and the UK are represented by works councils or employee representative groups. We collaborate with the works councils and believe we have good relationships with our employees. We are committed to the safety of our employees. At all our facilities, we have health and safety leaders and employee health and safety representatives who meet regularly and promote employee health and safety initiatives. The COVID-19 pandemic has further highlighted the importance of keeping our employees safe and healthy. In response to the pandemic, we have taken actions to protect our workforce so they can more safely and effectively perform their work. We established a COVID-19 crisis management team that has been closely monitoring the COVID-19 outbreak and its impact on employee safety and our business operations. As we navigate the pandemic and focus on keeping people safe, we continue to establish stringent safety procedures at our Development and Manufacturing facilities. Our goal is to always provide a safe working environment for our employees, while meeting our customer’s needs.

Risk Factors Risks Related to Our Business, Industry and Future Plans You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we expect to encounter in the markets in which we compete, and the prospects of our development projects, particularly MosaiQ. Factors that may contribute to fluctuations in our operating results include many of the risks described in this section. These fluctuations may make financial planning and forecasting difficult. In addition, these fluctuations may result in unanticipated decreases in our available cash, which could negatively affect our business and prospects. You should not rely on our operating results for any prior periods as an indication of our future operating performance. We have incurred losses since our commencement of operations and expect to incur losses in the future. We have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations in each year since we commenced operations in 2007. As of March 31, 2021, we had an accumulated deficit of $599.9 million. We expect our operating losses to continue for at least the next fiscal year as we continue our investment in the development and commercialization of MosaiQ. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing and commercializing MosaiQ and the other products we may develop, we are unable to predict the magnitude of any future operating losses or if or when we will become profitable. Our historic losses, combined with expected future losses, have had and will continue to have an adverse effect on our cash resources, shareholders’ deficit and working capital. Our ability to achieve or sustain profitability is based on numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including market acceptance of our products, future product development, and our market penetration and margins. Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain it. We may need to raise additional capital, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, and which may cause dilution to shareholders, restrict our operations or adversely affect our ability to operate our business. We expect to fund our operations in the near-term, including the ongoing development of MosaiQ through successful field trial completion, achievement of required regulatory authorizations and commercialization, from a combination of funding sources, including with available cash and short-term investment balance, and the issuance of new equity or debt. Our ability to raise additional capital may be significantly affected by general market conditions, the market price of our ordinary shares, our financial condition, uncertainty about the future commercial success of MosaiQ, regulatory developments, the status and scope of our intellectual property, any ongoing arbitration or litigation, our compliance with applicable laws and regulations and other factors, many of which are outside our control. Furthermore, the indentures governing the Secured Notes and our recently issued $95.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Convertible Notes due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”) contain limitations on our ability to incur debt and issue preferred and/or disqualified stock. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain needed financing on acceptable terms, or otherwise, we may not be able to implement our business plan, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, including a decline in the trading price of our ordinary shares. Any additional equity financings could result in additional dilution to our then existing shareholders. In addition, we may enter into additional financings that restrict our operations or adversely affect our ability to operate our business and, if we issue equity, debt or other securities to raise additional capital or restructure or refinance our existing indebtedness, the new equity, debt or other securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing shareholders. - 19 - We have invested a significant amount of money in two funds administered by Credit Suisse Asset Management which are at least partially subject to valuation uncertainty and potential losses, and there can be no assurance as to the timing or amount of future distributions from the funds. On March 12, 2021, we announced that two funds managed by Credit Suisse Asset Management, or CSAM, in which we had invested an aggregate of approximately $110.35 million had suspended redemptions. The investments into these funds were made in accordance with our investment policy of making individual investments with a minimum of an A rating from a leading credit-rating agency. Each fund holds short-term credit obligations of various obligors. According to a press release issued by CSAM, redemptions in the funds were suspended because “certain part of the Subfunds’ assets is currently subject to considerable uncertainties with respect to their accurate valuation.” CSAM subsequently began a liquidation of the funds. Pursuant to the liquidation, we have already received cash distributions of approximately $75.6 million. Based on information provided by Credit Suisse, we expect to receive further cash distributions from the funds in the next several months; however, there can be no assurance as to the timing or amount of any such distributions. While Credit Suisse has advised that the credit assets held by the funds are covered by insurance that potentially will be available to cover losses the funds would incur if any of the obligors on the funds’ credit assets were to default, we do not know if the funds will incur losses (net of insurance) on the credit assets held by the funds. We believe, and have advised Credit Suisse, that any such losses should be borne by Credit Suisse. Additionally, on April 22, 2021, Credit Suisse published its FY 2021 Q1 press release with commentary related to the supply chain financing funds. Notably, Credit Suisse indicated that the investors in the funds should assume losses will be incurred. We evaluated the investments in the CSAM managed funds for impairment and determined that our investment in one of the funds was impaired. We recognized an impairment expense of $2.3 million during March of 2021 related to this fund. The valuation of the supply chain finance funds remains subject to significant uncertainty. While an impairment has been recognized based on the most recent data available to us, future impairments may be required if we receive information that the value of the supply chain finance funds has deteriorated further. In addition, we may need to raise additional capital to account for any shortfall in distributions from the funds and there can be no assurances that such capital will be available on favorable terms or at all. We cannot accurately predict the volume or timing of any future sales for MosaiQ, making the timing of any such revenues difficult to predict. Our limited commercialization experience makes it difficult to evaluate our business and predict our prospects. We may be faced with lengthy customer evaluation and approval processes associated with MosaiQ. Consequently, we may incur substantial expenses and devote significant management effort and expense in developing customer adoption of MosaiQ, which may not result in revenue generation. As such, we cannot accurately predict the volume or timing of any future sales for MosaiQ. If we do not achieve, sustain or successfully manage our anticipated growth, our business and prospects will be harmed. If we are unable to maintain adequate revenue growth, our financial results could suffer. Furthermore, significant growth will place strains on our management and our operational and financial systems and processes. If we do not successfully forecast the timing of regulatory authorization for product marketing and subsequent demand for our products or manage our anticipated expenses accordingly, our operating results will be harmed. The development of MosaiQ includes many factors, including factors beyond our control, and we may not commercialize it on a timely basis, or at all. Our future revenue growth and profitability will substantially depend on our ability to successfully commercialize MosaiQ. Our ability to successfully commercialize MosaiQ may be affected by the following factors, among others: the scope of and progress made in our development activities; our ability to successfully complete field trial studies; our ability to obtain and maintain FDA and other regulatory authorizations; threats posed by competing technologies; our, or any commercial partner’s, ability to market MosaiQ to donor collection agencies, hospitals and independent testing laboratories; - 20 - our ability to successfully optimize the individual tests to be included on the MosaiQ Microarrays; the occurrence of unforeseen technical difficulties associated with the operation of the manufacturing system for the MosaiQ Microarrays, the manufacture or operation of the MosaiQ Instrument, or the design or development of software and the integration of the MosaiQ Microarrays, the MosaiQ Instrument and software; delays resulting from the failure of third-party suppliers or contractors to meet their obligations in a timely and cost- effective manner; and endorsement and acceptance by donor collection agencies, hospitals and independent testing laboratories. Development and commercialization of novel products, such as MosaiQ, is inherently uncertain. At any point, we may abandon development of MosaiQ or we may be required to expend considerable resources addressing unforeseen technical challenges or otherwise to complete and commercialize MosaiQ, which would adversely impact potential revenue and our expenses. In addition, any delay in the commercialization of MosaiQ would provide others with additional time to commercialize competing products, which in turn may adversely affect our growth prospects and operating results. Although we believe that our cost estimates and our project completion and commercialization schedule for MosaiQ are reasonable, we cannot assure you that the actual costs or time required to complete the project will not substantially exceed our current estimates. Obtaining regulatory authorization for MosaiQ will take time, require material expenditures and ultimately may not succeed. MosaiQ will be subject to CE Marking in Europe. In the United States, the FDA has indicated that it will require MosaiQ to obtain approval of a biologics license application, or BLA, for the MosaiQ IH Microarrays and traditional 510(k) clearances for the instrument and the initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray, comprising two tests, CMV and syphilis. The MosaiQ SDS II Microarray, comprising additional tests, will be subject to BLA approval. The process of complying with the requirements of the FDA and comparable agencies is generally costly, time consuming and burdensome, and regulatory authorization is never guaranteed, irrespective of time and financial expenditures. Furthermore, given the complexities of the regulatory pathway for MosaiQ, there may be delays in obtaining marketing authorization, or we may not be able to obtain marketing authorization at all. Moreover, the manufacturing process of the MosaiQ Microarrays is based on novel technologies and the FDA and regulatory agencies in other jurisdictions may have limited experience reviewing product candidates using these technologies, which may also result in delays in obtaining regulatory authorization for MosaiQ. In addition, global health crises, such as the current COVID-19 pandemic, may divert regulatory resources and attention away from the approval process for our products. Any such diversion could materially lengthen the regulatory process for MosaiQ, which would delay expected commercialization. We are required to perform field trial studies to obtain regulatory authorizations for MosaiQ. Field trial studies are subject to factors within and outside of our control and the outcome of these studies is uncertain. For example, success in performance evaluation studies may not be replicated in later field trial studies. There is no guarantee that our analytical testing will meet the FDA’s or other regulatory authorities’ requirements, that our field trial studies will be successful, that the FDA or other regulatory authorities will provide marketing authorization for MosaiQ based on the studies we have completed or, if we obtain market authorization, that the prognostic information that may be reported will differentiate MosaiQ from alternatives in the United States or other markets. Even if our field trials are successful and we obtain the necessary regulatory authorizations, the regulatory review process will still take time and require material expenditures. MosaiQ Microarrays have not been manufactured on a commercial scale and are subject to unforeseen scale-up risks. While we have developed the manufacturing system for MosaiQ Microarrays, there can be no assurance that we will be able to manufacture MosaiQ Microarrays at a scale that is adequate for our increasing commercial needs. We may face significant or unforeseen difficulties in manufacturing the MosaiQ Microarrays, including but not limited to: technical issues relating to manufacturing products on a commercial scale at reasonable cost, and in a reasonable time frame; difficulty meeting demand or timing requirements for Microarray orders due to excessive costs or lack of capacity for part or all of an operation or process; lack of skilled labor or unexpected increases in labor costs needed to produce or maintain our manufacturing systems or perform certain required operations; changes in government regulations or in quality or other requirements that lead to additional manufacturing costs or an inability to supply product in a timely manner, if at all; and increases in raw material or component supply cost or an inability to obtain certain critical supplies needed to complete our manufacturing processes. - 21 - These and other difficulties may only become apparent when scaling up the manufacturing of the MosaiQ Microarrays to more substantive commercial scale. In the event our MosaiQ Microarrays cannot be manufactured in sufficient commercial quantities, market acceptance of MosaiQ could be harmed, our prospects could be significantly impacted and our financial prospects would be materially harmed. We expect to rely on third parties to conduct studies of MosaiQ and our other transfusion diagnostics products that will be required by the FDA or other regulatory authorities and those third parties may not perform satisfactorily. We do not have the ability to independently conduct the field trial studies or other studies that may be required to obtain FDA and other regulatory clearances or approvals for MosaiQ as well as our conventional reagent products. Accordingly, we expect to rely on third parties, such as independent testing laboratories and hospitals, to conduct such studies. Our reliance on these third parties 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. We cannot control whether they devote sufficient time, skill and resources to our studies. Our third-party contractors may also be impacted by factors outside their or our control, such as delays associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, the restrictions implemented at the beginning of the pandemic directly impacted our on-going clinical trials for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray in Europe and the commencement of clinical trials for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray in the United States. 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 MosaiQ or our other transfusion diagnostic products. Our commercial success will largely depend upon the degree of market acceptance of MosaiQ by donor collection agencies, hospitals and independent testing laboratories. MosaiQ may not gain sufficient market acceptance by donor collection agencies, hospitals and independent testing laboratories. If the product does not achieve an adequate level of acceptance by these critical customer groups, our future revenue growth and profitability would be materially impacted. The degree of market acceptance of MosaiQ will depend on many factors, including: the efficacy and potential advantages of MosaiQ over alternative technologies, techniques and products, including both conventional technologies such as existing testing methods from Ortho, Immucor, Bio-Rad, Grifols, Danaher, Abbott and Roche, as well as new technologies from such companies or new competitors; limitations contained in the approved labeling for MosaiQ; the willingness of our target customers to transition from existing technologies, products and procedures and to adopt MosaiQ; our ability to offer attractive pricing for MosaiQ; the strength of marketing and distribution support and the timing of market introduction of competitive products; and outcomes from field trial studies, the regulatory approval process, and other publicity concerning MosaiQ or competing products. Our efforts to educate donor collection agencies, hospitals, independent testing laboratories and other members of the medical community on the benefits of MosaiQ may require significant resources and may never be successful. Such efforts to educate the marketplace may require more resources than are required by conventional or new technologies marketed by our competitors. If we were to incorrectly forecast our ability to penetrate various markets, expenditures that we make may not result in the benefits that we expect, which could harm our results of operations. Moreover, in the event that MosaiQ is the subject of industry or clinical guidelines, field trial studies or scientific publications that are unhelpful or damaging, or otherwise call into question the benefits of MosaiQ, we may have difficulty convincing prospective customers to adopt MosaiQ. Our commercialization plan for MosaiQ in the patient transfusion diagnostics market depends on our distributor relationship with Ortho, and we may enter into additional distribution or sales arrangements in the future that may subject us to similar risks. Our initial MosaiQ IH Microarray and our second, expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray are being developed for the donor testing market, with our initial focus being on Europe and the United States, while our third MosaiQ IH Microarray, or MosaiQ IH3 Microarray, is being developed for the patient testing market. We will rely on Ortho to commercialize MosaiQ in the highly fragmented patient transfusion diagnostics market in Europe and the United States. Under our distributor relationship with Ortho, we will develop and sell the MosaiQ IH3 Microarray for the patient transfusion market, and Ortho will have the right to distribute, market and sell the MosaiQ IH3 Microarray in Europe and in the United States, solely for use in testing the immuno-hematological profile of the blood of medical - 22 - patients in the course of their care or treatment. Ortho may not commit sufficient resources to this commercialization arrangement, as MosaiQ may compete for time, attention and resources with Ortho’s internal programs, or Ortho otherwise may not perform its obligations as expected. In addition, Ortho is both a customer and a competitor of our conventional reagent business. If Ortho is unable, or fails, to perform its obligations, there can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into commercialization relationships with other partners with sufficient existing global sales and support infrastructures necessary to successfully commercialize MosaiQ in the patient transfusion diagnostics market in these territories. Any of these risks could delay the commercialization of MosaiQ in the patient transfusion diagnostics market, result in high costs to us or otherwise materially harm our business and adversely affect our future revenues. We may also enter into additional distribution or sales arrangements to commercialize MosaiQ in other markets. To the extent that we enter into other distribution or sales arrangements, our product revenue is likely to be lower than if we directly market or sell MosaiQ. In addition, any revenue we receive will depend in whole or in part upon the efforts of third parties, which may not be successful and will generally not be within our control. If we are not successful in commercializing MosaiQ through collaborations with one or more third parties, our future product revenue will suffer and we may incur significant additional losses. Other companies or institutions may develop and market novel or improved methods for transfusion diagnostics, which may make MosaiQ less competitive or obsolete. The market for transfusion diagnostics is large and established, and our competitors may possess significantly greater financial resources and have larger development and commercialization capabilities than we do. Although we are not aware of any companies that are pursuing an alternative fully automated blood grouping and disease screening platform like MosaiQ, a platform or technology that competes with MosaiQ may be developed. We may be unable to compete effectively against these competitors either because their diagnostic platforms are superior or because they may have more expertise, experience, financial resources or stronger business relationships. Our near-term success is dependent upon our ability to expand our customer base and introduce new conventional reagent products. Our current customer base is primarily composed of donor testing laboratories and hospitals that use our conventional reagent products for blood grouping, along with original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs (for example, Ortho, Bio-Rad and Grifols). Our success will depend, in part, upon our ability to expand our customer base and increase our market penetration of existing customers through the development and commercialization of new products after obtaining regulatory authorization. Attracting new customers and introducing new products requires substantial time and expense. Any failure to expand our existing customer base, or launch new products, would adversely affect our operating results. Our financial performance depends in part upon our ability to successfully develop and market new products in a rapidly changing technological and economic environment. If we fail to successfully introduce new conventional reagent products, we could lose market share. We could also lose market share if our competitors introduce new products or technologies that render our conventional reagent products less competitive or obsolete. In addition, delays in the introduction of new products due to regulatory, developmental or other obstacles could negatively impact our revenue and market share, as well as our earnings. We are dependent upon our three largest OEM clients for a substantial portion of our total revenues. If any of our key OEM customers terminates or reduces the scope of its relationship with us, our product sales will suffer. We develop, manufacture and sell a range of our conventional reagent products to customers who are major OEMs. These products are sold in bulk, for inclusion in products manufactured by these OEM customers, or as finished, vialled products. Product sales to our three largest OEM customers accounted for 64% of our total product revenues and product sales to Ortho accounted for 60% of our total product revenues in the year ended March 31, 2021. If any of our OEM customer agreements for our conventional reagents products are terminated, particularly our agreement with Ortho, or the scope of our OEM customer relationships is otherwise reduced, our product sales could decrease, and our results of operations may be negatively impacted. In particular, a change of control of any of our OEM customers could negatively impact our relationship. Further, we may not be able to enter into new customer agreements on satisfactory terms, or at all. Our OEM customers, including Ortho, are also our competitors. Our conventional reagent business may be harmed if, as a result of the commercialization of MosaiQ, Ortho or our other OEM customers perceive MosaiQ as a competitor product, resulting in a discontinuation of Ortho’s or our other OEM customers’ purchases from us. - 23 - Gross margin volatility in our conventional reagent business may negatively impact our profitability. Gross margins on our conventional reagent products vary depending upon the product, with whole blood control products, rare antibodies and reagent red blood cell products generating higher margins. Depending upon the sales mix of these products, our gross margin could vary significantly from period to period. Our conventional reagent products are manufactured by us. As such, gross margins for these products could be impacted by a rise in the costs of raw materials and labor, as well as overhead and the efficiency of our manufacturing operations. Our gross margin may also be negatively impacted by increased competition. Specifically, suppliers in the market seeking to maintain or grow market share may foster a competitive environment of pricing pressures that could negatively impact the profitability of product sales. If we are unable to maintain or redeploy our network of direct sales representatives, we may not be able to generate anticipated sales of our current or future products. We expect our direct sales representatives to develop long-lasting relationships with the customers they serve. If our direct sales representatives fail to adequately promote, market and sell our conventional reagent products, our sales could significantly decrease. If a substantial number of our direct sales representatives were to leave us within a short period of time, our sales could be adversely affected. If a direct sales representative were to depart and be retained by one of our competitors, we may be unable to prevent them from helping competitors solicit business from our existing customers, which could further adversely affect our sales. We may be unable to hire additional qualified direct sales representatives to work with us. We may also not be able to enter into agreements with them on favorable or commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Failure to hire or retain qualified direct sales representatives would prevent us from expanding our business and generating sales. We or our suppliers may experience development or manufacturing problems or delays that could limit the growth of our revenue or increase our losses. We may encounter unforeseen situations in the manufacturing of our conventional reagent products that could result in delays or shortfalls in our production. Our suppliers may also face similar delays or shortfalls. In addition, our or our suppliers’ production processes may have to change to accommodate any significant future expansion of our manufacturing capacity, which may increase our or our suppliers’ manufacturing costs, delay production of our products, reduce our product gross margin and adversely impact our business. 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’ products. In addition, developing manufacturing procedures for new products would require developing specific production processes for those products. Developing such processes could be time consuming and any unexpected difficulty in doing so can delay the introduction of a product. Demand for our products depends in part on the operating budgets of our customers and their spending levels, a reduction in which could limit demand for our products and adversely affect our business. In the near term, we expect that our revenue will be derived primarily from sales of our conventional reagent products to hospitals and independent testing laboratories for blood grouping, either directly or through our OEM customers. The demand for our products will depend in part upon the operational budgets of these customers, which are impacted by factors beyond our control, such as: global macroeconomic conditions; changes in the regulatory environment; differences in budgetary cycles; market-driven pressures to consolidate operations and reduce costs; and market acceptance of new technologies. Our operating results may fluctuate due to reductions and delays in expenditures by our customers. Any decrease in our customers’ budgets or expenditures, or in the size, scope or frequency of operating expenditures, could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. The transfusion diagnostics market is highly competitive. If we fail to compete effectively, our business and operating results will suffer. We face significant competition in the transfusion diagnostics market. We currently compete with established diagnostic companies that design, manufacture and market instruments and microarrays for blood grouping. We believe our principal competitors in the transfusion diagnostics market are Ortho, Immucor, Bio-Rad, Grifols, Danaher, Abbott and Roche. - 24 - Most of our current competitors have greater financial resources than we do, making them better equipped to fund research and development, manufacturing and marketing efforts or license technologies and intellectual property from third parties. Our competitors can be expected to continue to improve the performance of their products and to introduce new products with competitive price and performance characteristics. Although we believe we have advantages over our competitors, maintaining these advantages will require us to continue to invest in research and development, sales and marketing and customer service and support. Our current competitors are either privately owned, publicly-traded companies or are divisions of publicly-traded companies, and enjoy many competitive advantages over us, including: greater name and brand recognition, financial and human resources; broader product lines; larger sales forces and more established distributor networks; substantial intellectual property portfolios; larger and more established customer bases and relationships; and better established, larger scale, and lower cost manufacturing capabilities. We believe that the principal competitive factors in all of our target markets include: cost of capital equipment; cost of microarrays and supplies; reputation among customers; innovation in product offerings; flexibility and ease-of-use; accuracy and reproducibility of results; compatibility with existing laboratory processes, tools and methods; breadth of clinical decisions that can be influenced by information generated by tests; and economic benefit accrued to customers based on testing services enabled by products. We cannot assure investors that we will be successful in the face of competition from new products and technologies introduced by our existing competitors or new companies entering our markets. In addition, we cannot assure investors that our competitors do not have or will not develop products or technologies that currently or in the future will enable them to produce competitive products with greater capabilities or at lower costs than ours. New technologies, techniques or products could emerge that might offer better combinations of price and performance than our current or future products and systems. It is critical to our success that we anticipate changes in technology and customer requirements and to successfully introduce, on a timely and cost-effective basis, new, enhanced and competitive technologies that meet the needs of current and prospective customers. If we do not successfully innovate and introduce new technology into our product lines or manage the transitions to new product offerings, our revenues, results of operations and business will be adversely impacted. Competitors may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards or customer requirements. We may face increased competition in the future if existing companies and competitors develop new or improved products and if new companies enter the market with new technologies. We are dependent on single source suppliers for some of the components and materials used in our products, and supply chain interruptions could negatively impact our operations and financial performance. Our products are manufactured by us and we obtain supplies from a limited number of suppliers. In some cases, critical components required to manufacture our products may only be available from a sole supplier or limited number of suppliers, any of whom would be difficult to replace. The supply of any of our manufacturing materials may be interrupted because of poor vendor performance or other events outside our control, which may require us, among other things, to identify alternate vendors and result in lost sales and increased expenses. In addition, if as a result of global economic or political instability or health pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, our suppliers may experience shortages or delays for materials sourced and manufactured in the affected countries, their ability to supply us with product components may be affected. - 25 - Even if the manufacturing materials that we source are available from other parties, the time and effort involved in validating the new supplies and obtaining any necessary regulatory approvals for substitutes could impede our ability to replace such components in a timely manner or at all. In particular, some of our conventional reagent products are derived from blood having particular or rare combinations of antigens, which are found in a limited number of individuals. If we had difficulty in obtaining sufficient quantities of such blood, we would need to establish a viable alternative, which may take both time and expense to either identify and/or develop. The loss of a sole supplier would impair our ability to deliver products to our customers in a timely manner and would adversely affect our sales and operating results and negatively impact our reputation. Our business would also be harmed if any of our suppliers could not meet our quality and performance specifications and quantity and delivery requirements. If any of our manufacturing facilities become unavailable or inoperable, we will be unable to produce and ship many of our products. All our conventional reagent products are currently produced in our ARC facility located near Edinburgh, Scotland. While we believe we have reliable suppliers of raw materials, our reagent production is highly dependent on the uninterrupted and efficient operation of our ARC facility and we currently have no alternative manufacturing capabilities qualified. Therefore, if a catastrophic event occurred at our ARC facility, such as a fire or contamination, many of our products could not be produced until the manufacturing portion of the facility was restored and cleared by the FDA and other regulatory authorities. We maintain a disaster plan to minimize the effects of such a catastrophe and we have obtained insurance to protect against certain business interruption losses. However, there can be no assurance that such coverage will be adequate or that such coverage will continue to remain available on acceptable terms, if at all. Our customers, including our U.S. commercial operations, receive all of their conventional reagent products from our ARC facility. If circumstances arose that disrupted our international distribution of products from Edinburgh, we would need to establish an alternate distribution channel, which may take both time and expense to establish. We have leased a manufacturing facility in Eysins, Switzerland, which is presently the principal manufacturing site for MosaiQ Microarrays and we currently have no alternative manufacturing capabilities. Therefore, if a catastrophic event occurred at the Eysins, Switzerland facility, such as a fire or contamination, we would not be able to produce MosaiQ Microarrays until the manufacturing portion of the facility was restored and cleared by the FDA and other regulatory authorities. We maintain a disaster plan to minimize the effects of such a catastrophe and we have obtained insurance to protect against certain business interruption losses. We generate a substantial portion of our revenue internationally and are subject to various risks relating to our international activities. A significant proportion of our revenues are earned in U.S. Dollars but the costs of our manufacturing operations are payable mainly in Pounds Sterling while the costs of MosaiQ development are payable mainly in Swiss Francs. As a result, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. Dollar could impact our financial results adversely. A significant percentage of our future costs will be incurred in international locations. Engaging in international business also involves many difficulties and risks, including: required compliance with existing and changing foreign regulatory requirements and laws; required compliance with anti-bribery laws, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and UK Bribery Act, data privacy requirements, labor laws and anti-competition regulations; export or import restrictions; various reimbursement and insurance regimes; laws and business practices favoring local companies; longer payment cycles and difficulties in enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through certain foreign legal systems; political and economic instability; potentially adverse tax consequences, tariffs, customs charges, bureaucratic requirements and other trade barriers; difficulties and costs of staffing and managing foreign operations; and difficulties protecting or procuring intellectual property rights. - 26 - The occurrence of any of these factors in the countries in which we operate could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We face risks related to health pandemics, epidemics and outbreaks, including the current COVID-19 pandemic, which could significantly disrupt our operations and could have a material adverse impact on us. In recent years the outbreaks of a number of diseases, including Avian Bird Flu, H1N1, and various other “super bugs,” have increased the risk of a pandemic. In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has since spread to over 100 countries, including the United States. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. Since March 13, 2020, there have been a number of federal, state and local government initiatives to manage the spread of the virus and its impact on the economy, financial markets and continuity of businesses of all sizes and industries. The impact and duration of COVID-19 or another pandemic, is having and could in the future have significant repercussions across regional, national and global economies and financial markets, and could trigger a period of regional, national and global economic slowdown or regional, national or global recessions. The outbreak of COVID-19 in many countries continues to adversely impact regional, national and global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving and, as cases of the virus have continued to increase around the world, many countries, including the United States, have reacted by instituting, among other things, quarantines and restrictions on travel. We believe that our ability to operate and our level of business activity has been, and will in all likelihood continue to be, impacted by effects of COVID-19 and could in the future be impacted by another pandemic and that such impacts could adversely affect the profitability of our business. In particular, the COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption on a global scale, and particularly in geographies where we conduct a significant portion of our business, including the United States and Europe. For instance, the restrictions implemented at the beginning of the pandemic directly impacted our on-going clinical trials for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray in Europe and the commencement of clinical trials for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray in the United States. All external work on these trials was suspended in March 2020 until such time as the existing restrictions in the relevant jurisdictions were removed or moderated. By the end of May 2020, quarantine and containment measures and restrictions had eased in all of the three European trial locations allowing the work to recommence. Beginning in late 2020, there was a widespread increase, or "second wave," in reported infections from COVID-19, including in Europe and the United States. In response, various countries including in Europe announced the re-imposition of some restrictions on social, business and other activities. Government travel restrictions and lockdowns imposed in response to the second wave seriously affected our operations in Europe and the United Kingdom. In spite of this widespread increase of COVID-19 infections, the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated restrictions did not have a material adverse impact on our conventional reagent revenues. However, the second wave negatively affected the on-going field trials for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray, with travel restrictions and lockdowns making it difficult for relevant teams to spend time on-site and resulting in trials repeatedly stopping and restarting. Furthermore, these restrictions and lockdowns impacted our research and development activities, slowed down the regulatory approval process and delayed the timing of customer tenders. Although restrictions in both Europe and the United States have been since eased, there can be no assurance that we will not experience a widespread increase in infections from new strains of COVID-19. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our business, operations and financial results will depend on future developments and numerous evolving factors, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including: the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individual actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic; the impact of the pandemic on economic activity and actions taken in response; the timing and successful distribution of an effective vaccine; the effect of the pandemic on patients and healthcare providers, as well as our business partners; demand for, and our ability to supply, our products, including as a result of travel restrictions, social distancing, quarantines and other containment measures; our and our service providers' ability to conduct field trials, including further delays to our planned field trials for our MosaiQ IH and SDS Microarrays, and other potential delays in the development of MosaiQ; our employees' and other service providers' ability to travel and to meet with customers; - 27 - delays in obtaining regulatory approvals for MosaiQ and conventional reagent products and disruptions in regulatory oversight and other actions if regulators and industry professionals are expending significant and unexpected resources addressing COVID-19; restrictions on the export or shipment of our products; significant cutback of delivery from impacted countries and regions or other impacts on our ability to obtain sufficient and timely supplies; and any closures of our manufacturing facilities and those used in our supply chain processes or other disruptions to our or our suppliers' production capacities. Further, the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in a widespread health crisis that has adversely affected and could continue to adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could affect demand for our products in the United States, Europe and other territories, and may materially impact our results of operations and financial condition. The rapid development and fluidity of the circumstances resulting from this pandemic preclude any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19. Nevertheless, COVID-19 and the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in these and other areas present material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, volume of business, results of operations and cash flows. Moreover, many risk factors set forth in this Annual Report should be interpreted as heightened risks as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our debt and other financings contain restrictive covenants and other provisions that may limit our operating flexibility. As of March 31, 2021, we had $145.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes outstanding. The Secured Notes are secured by substantially all of our property and assets (subject to certain exclusions). The indenture governing the Secured Notes contains certain restrictive covenants that limit our ability to incur debt, issue preferred and/or disqualified stock, pay dividends, repurchase shares and make certain other restricted payments, prepay, repurchase or redeem subordinated debt, merge, amalgamate or consolidate with other companies, engage in certain transactions with affiliates and make investments other than those permitted by the indenture. We therefore may not be able to engage in any of the foregoing transactions unless we obtain the consent of the note holders or redeem all the Secured Notes that are then outstanding. There is no guarantee that we will be able to generate sufficient cash flow or sales to pay the principal and interest under the Secured Notes. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that future working capital, borrowings or equity financing will be available to repurchase, redeem or otherwise refinance the Secured Notes. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain change of control events and, subject to certain conditions, certain asset sales events, holders of the Secured Notes may require us to repurchase for cash all or part of their Secured Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101.0% or 100.0%, respectively, of the principal amount of the Secured Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. Furthermore, our outstanding 666,665 7% cumulative redeemable preference shares are subject to automatic redemption in the event of certain changes of control involving us. In connection with such redemption, we are required to first pay the amount of the accrued and unpaid preferential dividend on the preference shares and then redeem the preference shares at a redemption price of $22.50 per preference share. There is no guarantee that we will have sufficient funds legally available to repurchase the Secured Notes or redeem the preference shares under such circumstances. Undetected errors or defects in our products could expose us to product liability claims, harm our reputation or decrease market acceptance of our products. The sale and use of products or services based on our technologies could lead to the filing of product liability claims if someone were to allege that one of our products contained a design or manufacturing defect, which resulted in the failure to adequately perform the analysis for which it was designed. A product liability claim could result in substantial damages and be costly and time consuming to defend, either of which could materially harm our business or financial condition. We maintain product liability insurance that we believe is adequate for our business. However, there can be no assurance that insurance coverage for these risks will continue to be available or, if available, that it will be sufficient to cover potential claims or that the present level of coverage will continue to be available at a reasonable cost. Our existing insurance may have to be increased in the future if we are successful at introducing new transfusion diagnostics products and this will increase our costs. Under certain of our customer and license agreements, we have agreed to provide indemnification for product liability claims arising out of the use of our products. If we are held liable for a claim or for damages exceeding the limits of our insurance coverage, we may be required to make substantial payments. Regardless of merit or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in: decreased demand for our products and product candidates; injury to our reputation; - 28 - costs of related litigation; substantial monetary awards to patients and others; loss of revenue; and the inability to commercialize our products and product candidates. Any of these outcomes may have an adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and may increase the volatility of our share price. We may also be subject to warranty claims for damages related to errors or defects in our products. A material liability claim or other occurrence that harms our reputation or decreases market acceptance of our products could harm our business and operating results. If we experience a product performance problem, we may be required to, or may voluntarily recall or suspend selling the products until the problem is resolved. Depending on the product as well as the availability of acceptable substitutes, such a product recall or suspension could significantly impact our operating results. We could experience a breach in the confidentiality of the information we hold or of the security of our computer systems and any failure to comply with the applicable privacy laws to which we are subject could result in losses. We operate large and complex computer systems that contain significant amounts of client data. As a routine element of our business we collect and retain substantial amounts of data pertaining to the work we undertake for customers. Unauthorized third parties could attempt to gain entry to such computer systems for the purpose of stealing the data or disrupting the systems. We believe we have taken appropriate measures to protect them from intrusion, and we continue to improve and enhance our systems in this regard (including how we process and report any breaches), but in the event we are unsuccessful we could suffer significant harm. Our contracts with our customers typically contain provisions that require us to keep confidential any information generated from our work. In the event that the confidentiality of such information was compromised, we could suffer significant harm. We are also required to comply with the data privacy and security laws in several jurisdictions. For example, we are required to comply with the European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, which became effective on May 25, 2018. GDPR extends the geographical scope of European Union data protection law to non-E.U. entities under certain conditions, tightens existing European Union data protection principles, creates new obligations for companies and new rights for individuals, and imposes enhanced penalties for non-compliance. The potential for fines and penalties in the event of a violation of GDPR may have a significant adverse impact on our business and operations. In addition, the State of California has also enacted a consumer privacy law which imposes similar data privacy and security requirements. Substantial expenses and operational changes may be required in connection with maintaining compliance with such laws, and in particular certain emerging privacy laws are still subject to a high degree of uncertainty as to their interpretation and application.We have made changes to, and continue to make enhancements of, our business practices to help attain compliance with these evolving and complex regulations. Any failure by us or our business partners to comply with U.S. federal or state or international privacy, data protection or security laws or regulations relating to the collection, use, retention, security and transfer of personally identifiable information could result in regulatory or litigation-related actions against us, legal liability, fines, damages, ongoing audit requirements and other significant costs. We are highly dependent on our senior management team and other key employees, and our success depends on our ability to retain our managerial personnel and to attract additional personnel. Our success is dependent upon the efforts of our senior management and staff, including sales, technical and management personnel, many of whom have very specialized industry and technical expertise that is not easily replaced. If key individuals leave us, we could be adversely affected if suitable replacement personnel are not quickly recruited. Recently, we experienced important changes to our senior management team. As previously disclosed, Edward Farrell, our former Chief Operating Officer, and Ernest Larnach, our former Head of Financial Accounting and Treasury, notified us of their resignation in December 2020 and January 2021, respectively, and the latter was succeeded by Vittoria Bonasso. Furthermore, as previously disclosed, our former Chief Executive Officer, Franz Walt, resigned from his position effective April 1, 2021, and was succeeded by Manual Mendez. We have entered into employment agreements with our executive officers and senior managers, including Ms. Bonasso and Mr. Mendez, but none of these agreements guarantees the service of the individual for a specified period. Our future success depends on our ability to continue to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There is intense competition for medical technologists and in some markets there is a shortage of qualified personnel in our industry. If we are unable to continue to attract or retain highly qualified personnel, the development, growth and future success of our business could be adversely affected. - 29 - We may seek to grow our business through acquisitions of or investments in new or complementary businesses, products or technologies, and the failure to manage acquisitions or investments, or the failure to integrate them with our existing business, could have a material adverse effect on us. From time to time, we expect to consider opportunities to acquire or make investments in other technologies, products and businesses that may enhance our capabilities, complement our current products or expand the breadth of our product offerings, markets or customer base. Potential and completed acquisitions and strategic investments involve numerous risks, including: problems assimilating the purchased technologies, products or business operations; issues maintaining uniform standards, procedures, controls and policies; unanticipated costs associated with acquisitions; diversion of management’s attention from our core business; adverse effects on existing business relationships with suppliers and customers; risks associated with entering new markets in which we have limited or no experience; potential loss of key employees of acquired businesses; and increased legal and accounting compliance costs. We have no current commitments with respect to any acquisition or investment. Any acquisitions we undertake could be expensive and time consuming and may disrupt our ongoing business and prevent management from focusing on our operations. If we are unable to manage acquisitions or investments, or integrate any acquired businesses, products or technologies effectively, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. We may enter into collaborations, in-licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships with third parties that may not result in the development of commercially viable products or the generation of significant future revenues. In the ordinary course of our business, we may enter into collaborations, in-licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships to develop proposed products and to pursue new markets. Proposing, negotiating and implementing collaborations, in- licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships may be a lengthy and complex process. Other companies, including those with substantially greater financial, marketing, sales, technology or other business resources, may compete with us for these opportunities or arrangements. We may not identify, secure, or complete any such transactions or arrangements in a timely manner, on a cost-effective basis, on acceptable terms or at all. We have limited institutional knowledge and experience with respect to these business development activities, and we may also not realize the anticipated benefits of any such transaction or arrangement. In particular, these collaborations may not result in the development of products that achieve commercial success or result in significant revenues and could be terminated prior to developing any products. Additionally, we may not be able to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the transaction or arrangement, which could create the potential risk of creating impasses on decisions, and our collaborators may have economic or business interests or goals that are, or that may become, inconsistent with our business interests or goals. It is possible that conflicts may arise with our collaborators, such as conflicts concerning the achievement of performance milestones, or the interpretation of significant terms under any agreement, such as those related to financial obligations, the ownership or control of intellectual property developed during the collaboration or the scope of our or our collaborators' other rights or obligations related to development or commercialization activities. If any conflicts arise with our current or future collaborators, they may act in their self-interest, which may be adverse to our best interest, and they may breach their obligations to us. In addition, we have limited control over the amount and timing of resources that our current collaborators or any future collaborators devote to our collaborators’ or our future products. Disputes between us and our collaborators may result in litigation or arbitration which would increase our expenses and divert the attention of our management. Further, these transactions and arrangements are contractual in nature and may be terminated or dissolved under the terms of the applicable agreements and, in such event, we may not continue to have rights to the products relating to such transaction or arrangement or may need to purchase such rights at a premium. Risks Related to Government Regulation Recent global economic and political conditions could result in significant changes to legislation, government policies, rules and regulations, which may have a material adverse effect on our business. The impact of recent political and economic developments in the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe, including the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” are uncertain. These political and economic developments could result in changes to legislation or reformation of government policies, rules and regulations pertaining to the U.S. - 30 - healthcare system, tax and trade. Such changes could have a significant impact on our business by increasing the cost of doing business, affecting our ability to sell our products and negatively impacting our profitability. In addition, these developments, or continuing uncertainty surrounding these developments, could result in significant financial market volatility, and could also exacerbate, or result in, a slow-down of growth in global, U.S. and other economies, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating performance and the market price of our ordinary shares. In particular, on January 31, 2020, the United Kingdom ceased to be a member state of the European Union and, on December 31, 2020, the United Kingdom ceased to be part of the E.U. single market and customs union, as well as all E.U. policies and international agreements. As a result, the free movement of persons, goods, services and capital between the United Kingdom and the European Union ended, and the European Union and the United Kingdom formed two separate markets and two distinct regulatory and legal spaces. On December 24, 2020, the European Commission reached a trade agreement with the United Kingdom on the terms of its future cooperation with the European Union, which we refer to as the “Trade Agreement”. The Trade Agreement offers U.K. and E.U. companies preferential access to each other's markets, ensuring imported goods will be free of tariffs and quotas; however, economic relations between the United Kingdom and the European Union will now be on more restricted terms than existed previously. In addition, the Trade Agreement sets out certain procedures for approval and recognition of medical products. Although we cannot predict at this time the full impact that Brexit and the Trade Agreement may have on our business, operations and financial results, we do expect that Brexit will impact our regulatory approval plan for MosaiQ. The European Union is transitioning from the existing European Directive 98/79/EC on in vitro diagnostic medical devices, or the IVDD, to the In Vitro Diagnostic Device Regulation, or the IVDR, which will repeal and replace the IVDD. Unlike the IVDD, which must be implemented into the national laws of the Member States of the European Economic Area, or EEA, the IVDR will be directly applicable in all EEA Member States and is intended to eliminate current differences in the regulation of in vitro diagnostic medical devices among EEA Member States. However, due to Brexit, the United Kingdom will not be subject to the IVDR and has instead introduced its own regulatory framework. As a result, there is a new conformity marking solely for the United Kingdom and, as of January 1, 2021, any new products require a U.K. Conformity Assessed, or UKCA, mark, in addition to a CE mark. However, our existing products will be able to rely on CE marks previously obtained during a transition period that will last until June 30, 2023. The Mutual Recognition Agreement currently in place between the European Union and Switzerland is based on the IVD Directive (98/79/EC) and confirms that the laws and regulations adopted in Switzerland mirror those of the European Union with respect to medical devices, allowing CE marking throughout the European Union and EEA. This agreement requires update to reflect the new regulatory framework of the In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR 2017/746), or IVDR, which replaces the IVD Directive. Without such an update, Swiss manufacturers will be required to perform additional actions to CE mark and market their products in the European Union. The IVDR will come into effect on May 26, 2022 and while there have been continuing discussions between the parties on the update, there has been no final agreement. No assurance can be given that an agreement between the parties will be reached. If we, or any commercial partners we engage fail to comply with extensive foreign and domestic regulations, sales of our products in new and existing markets and the development and commercialization of any new product candidates, including MosaiQ, could be delayed or prevented. Our reagents and other products are subject to regulation by governmental and private agencies in the United States and abroad, which, among other things, regulate the testing, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, distribution, promotion, marketing, import and export of medical supplies and devices. Certain international regulatory bodies also impose import and tax restrictions, tariff regulations, and duties on imported products. Delays in agency review can significantly delay new product introduction and may result in a product becoming “outdated” or losing its market opportunity before it can be introduced. If any of our products were to fail to perform in the manner represented during review of the product application, particularly concerning clinical performance, one or more of these agencies could place restrictions on the labeling, marketing, distribution or use of the product, require us to modify or cease manufacturing and selling that product, or even recall previously-placed products, and, if the product must be modified in order to resolve the problem, to resubmit the product for market authorization before we could sell it again. Depending upon the product, and the availability of acceptable substitutes, such an agency action could result in significantly reduced revenues and earnings for an indefinite period. Federal, state and foreign regulations regarding the manufacture and sale of our products are subject to change. We cannot predict what impact, if any, such changes might have on our business. In addition, there can be no assurance that regulation of our products will not become more restrictive in the future and that any such development would not have a material adverse effect on our business. - 31 - If we or our suppliers fail to comply with ongoing regulatory requirements, or if we experience unanticipated problems with our products, these products could be subject to restrictions or withdrawal from the market. Any product for which we obtain marketing approval or clearance in the United States or in international jurisdictions, along with the manufacturing processes and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual review and periodic inspections by the FDA and other regulatory bodies. Furthermore, our suppliers may be subject to similar regulatory oversight and may not currently be or may not continue to be in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. Our failure or the failure of one of our suppliers to comply with statutes and regulations administered by the FDA and other regulatory bodies, or our failure to take adequate action in response to any observations, could result in, among other things, any of the following enforcement actions, any one of which could harm our reputation and could cause our product sales and profitability to suffer: fines and civil penalties; the requirement to take corrective actions; delays in approving or clearing, or refusal to approve or clear, our products; withdrawal or suspension of approval or clearances by the FDA or other regulatory bodies; product recall or seizures; interruption of production; restrictions on labeling, marketing, distribution or use of our products; an import or export ban on our products; injunctions; and criminal prosecution. We may also receive warning letters or untitled letters regarding compliance with current good manufacturing practices at one or more of our manufacturing facilities. Any regulatory approval or clearance of a product may also be subject to limitations on the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed. If the FDA or another regulatory body determines that our promotional materials, training or other activities constitute promotion of an unapproved use, it could request that we cease or modify our training or promotional materials or subject us to regulatory enforcement actions. It is also possible that other federal, state or foreign enforcement authorities might act if they consider our training or promotional materials to constitute promotion of an unapproved use, which could result in significant fines or penalties under applicable statutory authorities, such as laws prohibiting false claims for reimbursement. Additionally, we may be required to conduct costly post-market testing and we may be required to report adverse events and malfunctions related to our products. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, including unanticipated adverse events, manufacturing problems or failure to comply with regulatory requirements may result in restrictions on such products or manufacturing processes. Other potential consequences include revisions to the approved labeling, withdrawal of the products from the market, voluntary or mandatory recalls, fines, suspension of regulatory approvals, product seizures, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties. If materials used in our products become unavailable because of new government regulations, substitute materials may be less effective and may require significant cost to incorporate in our products. Furthermore, the FDA and various other authorities will inspect our facilities and those of our suppliers from time to time to determine whether we are in compliance with regulations relating to the manufacture of transfusion diagnostics products, including regulations concerning design, manufacture, testing, quality control, product labeling, distribution, promotion and record-keeping practices. A determination that we are in material violation of such regulations could lead to the imposition of civil penalties, including warning or untitled letters, fines, product recalls, field actions, product seizures or, in extreme cases, criminal sanctions. Additionally, healthcare policy has been a subject of extensive discussion in the executive and legislative branches of the federal and many state governments and healthcare laws and regulations are subject to change. Our reagent product business strategy, and the development of the commercialization strategy for MosaiQ, have been based on existing healthcare policies. We cannot predict what additional changes, if any, will be proposed or adopted or the effect that such proposals or adoption may have on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Approval and/or clearance by the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities for our transfusion diagnostics products could take significant time and require significant development expenditures. FDA approval of a BLA or clearance of a 510(k) generally is required before we can market new reagents in the United States or make significant changes to existing products. - 32 - Obtaining FDA and other regulatory clearances or approvals for MosaiQ and our newly developed conventional reagent products can be time-consuming, expensive and uncertain. It can take from several months to several years from the date of submission of the application, and generally requires detailed and comprehensive scientific and clinical data. As with all blood transfusion products, the FDA and other regulatory authorities reserve the right to redefine the regulatory path at the time of submission or during the review process, and could require a more burdensome approach than we currently anticipate. Notwithstanding the time and expense, there is no assurance that marketing authorizations will be granted or that agency reviews will not involve delays that would adversely affect our ability to commercialize our products, including MosaiQ. 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. Our use of biological and hazardous materials and wastes requires us to comply with regulatory requirements, including environmental, health and safety laws, regulations and permitting requirements and subjects us to significant costs and exposes us to potential liabilities. The handling of materials used in the manufacture of transfusion diagnostics products involves the controlled use of biological and hazardous materials and wastes. The primary hazardous materials we handle or use include human blood donations. Our business and facilities and those of our suppliers are subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the protection of human health and the environment, including those governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of, and exposure to, such materials and wastes. In addition, the collection and use of health data in the European Union is governed by the GDPR. The GDPR may increase our responsibility and liability in relation to personal data that we process and we may be required to put in place additional mechanisms ensuring compliance with the GDPR. This may be onerous and if our efforts to comply with GDPR or other applicable European Union laws and regulations are not successful, we may be subject to substantial fines and other administrative penalties, which could adversely affect our business in the European Union. Additionally, under some environmental laws and regulations, we could be held responsible for costs relating to any contamination at our past or present facilities and at third-party waste disposal sites even if such contamination was not caused by us. A failure to comply with current or future environmental laws and regulations, including the failure to obtain, maintain or comply with any required permits, could result in severe fines or penalties. Any such expenses or liability could have a significant negative impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, we may be required to incur significant costs to comply with regulatory requirements in the future. Our relationships with customers are subject to applicable anti-kickback, fraud and abuse and other domestic healthcare laws and regulations, which could expose us to criminal sanctions, civil penalties, contractual damages, reputational harm and diminished profits and future earnings. Healthcare providers, physicians at hospitals and public health departments play a primary role in the recommendation and ordering of our reagents and other products, and may play an important role in the recommendation and ordering of the MosaiQ system. Our arrangements with customers may expose us to broadly applicable fraud and abuse and other healthcare laws and regulations that may constrain the business or financial arrangements and relationships through which we market, sell and distribute our product. The federal healthcare anti-kickback statute prohibits, among other things, persons from knowingly and willfully soliciting, offering, receiving or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in cash or in kind, to induce or reward either the referral of an individual for, or the purchase, order or recommendation of, any good or service, for which payment may be made under federally funded healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. This statute has been broadly interpreted to apply to manufacturer arrangements with prescribers, purchasers and formulary managers, among others. Several other countries, including the United Kingdom, have enacted similar anti-kickback, fraud and abuse, and healthcare laws and regulations. The federal False Claims Act imposes criminal and civil penalties against individuals or entities for knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, to the federal government, claims for payment that are false or fraudulent or making a false statement material to a false or fraudulent action or improperly avoiding, decreasing or concealing an obligation to pay money to the federal government. HIPAA imposes criminal and civil liability for executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program and also imposes obligations, including mandatory contractual terms, with respect to safeguarding the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. In addition, HIPAA created criminal liability for knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services. The federal Physician Payment Sunshine Act requirements under the PPACA require manufacturers of drugs, devices, biologics and medical supplies to report to HHS information related to payments and other transfers of value made to or at the request of covered recipients, such as physicians and teaching hospitals, and physician ownership and investment interests in such manufacturers. - 33 - Payments made to physicians and research institutions for clinical trials are included within the ambit of this law. Certain state laws and regulations also require the reporting of certain items of value provided to health care professionals. Analogous state laws and regulations, such as state anti-kickback and false claims laws, may apply to sales or marketing arrangements and claims involving healthcare items or services reimbursed by non-governmental third-party payors, including private insurers. Efforts to ensure that our business arrangements with third parties will comply with applicable healthcare laws and regulations involve substantial costs. We may be subject to qui tam litigation brought by private individuals on behalf of the government under the federal False Claims Act, with potential liability including mandatory treble damages and significant per-claim penalties, currently set at $5,500 to $11,000 per false claim. Additionally, it is possible that governmental authorities will conclude that our business practices may not comply with current or future statutes, regulations or case law involving applicable fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws and regulations. If our operations are found to be in violation of any of these laws or any other governmental regulations that may apply to us, we may be subject to significant civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, fines, exclusion from government funded healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations. Exclusion, suspension and debarment from government funded healthcare programs would significantly impact our ability to commercialize, sell or distribute any product. If any of the physicians or other providers or entities with whom we expect to do business are found to be not in compliance with applicable laws, they may be subject to criminal, civil or administrative sanctions, including exclusions from government funded healthcare programs. We are subject to the UK Bribery Act, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other anti-corruption laws, as well as export control laws, customs laws, sanctions laws and other laws governing our operations. If we fail to comply with these laws, we could be subject to civil or criminal penalties, other remedial measures, and legal expenses, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our operations are subject to anti-corruption laws, including the UK Bribery Act 2010, or Bribery Act, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, and other anti-corruption laws that apply in countries where we do business. The Bribery Act, FCPA and these other laws generally prohibit us and our employees and intermediaries from bribing, being bribed or making other prohibited payments to government officials or other persons to obtain or retain business or gain some other business advantage. We operate, and we expect our commercial partners will operate, in many jurisdictions that pose a high risk of potential Bribery Act or FCPA violations, and we participate in collaborations and relationships with third parties whose actions could potentially subject us to liability under the Bribery Act, FCPA or local anti-corruption laws. In addition, we cannot predict the nature, scope or effect of future regulatory requirements to which our international operations might be subject or the manner in which existing laws might be administered or interpreted. We are also subject to other laws and regulations governing our international operations, including regulations administered by the governments of the United Kingdom, the United States and authorities in the European Union, including applicable export control regulations, economic sanctions on countries and persons, customs requirements and currency exchange regulations, collectively referred to as the Trade Control laws. There is no assurance that we will be completely effective in ensuring our compliance with all applicable anti-corruption laws, including the Bribery Act, the FCPA or other legal requirements and Trade Control laws. If we are not in compliance with the Bribery Act, the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws or Trade Control laws, we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties, disgorgement and other sanctions and remedial measures, and legal expenses, which could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Likewise, any investigation of any potential violations of the Bribery Act, the FCPA, other anti-corruption laws or Trade Control laws by UK, U.S. or other authorities could also have an adverse impact on our reputation, our business, results of operations and financial condition. Risks Related to Intellectual Property The extent to which we can protect our products and technologies through intellectual property rights that we own, acquire or license is uncertain. We employ a variety of proprietary and patented technologies and methods in connection with the products we sell or are developing, including MosaiQ. We license some of these technologies from third parties. We cannot provide any assurance that the intellectual property rights that we own or license provide effective protection from competitive threats or that we would prevail in any litigation in which our intellectual property rights are challenged. In addition, we cannot provide any assurances that we will be successful in obtaining new proprietary or patented technologies or methods in the future, whether through acquiring ownership or through licenses from third parties. - 34 - We cannot assure investors that any of our currently pending or future patent applications will result in issued patents, and we cannot predict how long it may take for a patent to issue on any of our pending patent applications, assuming a patent does issue. Further, we cannot assure investors that other parties will not challenge any patents issued or exclusively licensed to us or that courts or administrative agencies will hold our patents or the patents we license on an exclusive basis to be valid and enforceable. We cannot guarantee investors that we will be successful in defending challenges made against our patents and other intellectual property rights. Any third-party challenge to any of our patents could result in the unenforceability or invalidity of some or all of the claims of such patents and could be time consuming and expensive. The extent to which the patent rights of life sciences companies effectively protect their products and technologies is often highly uncertain and involves complex legal and factual questions for which important legal principles remain unresolved. No consistent policy regarding the proper scope of allowable claims of patents held by such companies has emerged to date in the United States. Various courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court, have rendered decisions that impact the scope of patentability of certain inventions or discoveries relating to diagnostics tests or genomic diagnostics. These decisions generally stand for the proposition that inventions that recite laws of nature are not themselves patentable unless they 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 a law of nature itself. What constitutes a “sufficient” additional feature for this purpose is uncertain. While we do not generally rely on gene sequence patents, 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 exclusively licensed patents. We cannot predict the breadth of claims that may be allowed or enforced in patents we own or in those to which we have exclusive license rights. For example: the inventor(s) named in one or more of our patents or patent applications might not have been the first to have made the relevant invention; the inventor (or his assignee) might not have been the first to file a patent application for the claimed invention; others may independently develop similar or alternative products and technologies or may successfully replicate our product and technologies; it is possible that the patents we own, or in which have exclusive license rights may not provide us with any competitive advantages or may be challenged by third parties and found to be invalid or unenforceable; any patents we obtain or exclusively license may expire before, or within a limited period after, the products and services relating to such patents are commercialized; we may not develop or acquire additional proprietary products and technologies that are patentable; and others may acquire patents that could be asserted against us in a manner that could have an adverse effect on our business. Changes in either the patent laws or in interpretations of patent laws in the United States or other countries may diminish the value of our intellectual property rights. In particular, in September 2011, the U.S. Congress passed the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act, or the AIA, which became effective in March 2013. The AIA reforms U.S. patent law in part by changing the standard for patent approval for certain patents from a “first to invent” standard to a “first to file” standard and developing a post-grant review system. The AIA could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patent applications and the enforcement or defense of our issued patents, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. Patent applications in the United States and many foreign jurisdictions are not published until at least eighteen months after filing and it is possible for a patent application filed in the United States to be maintained in secrecy until a patent issues on the application. In addition, publications in the scientific literature often lag behind actual discoveries. We therefore cannot be certain that others have not filed patent applications that cover inventions that are the subject of pending applications that we own or exclusively license or that we or our licensors, as applicable, were the first to invent the technology (pre-AIA) or first to file (post-AIA). Our competitors may have filed, and may in the future file, patent applications covering technology that is similar to or the same as our technology. Any such patent application may have priority over patent applications that we own or exclusively license and, if a patent issues on such patent application, we could be required to obtain a license to such patent to carry on our business. If another party has filed a U.S. patent application covering an invention this is similar to, or the same as, an invention that we own or license, we or our licensors may have to participate in an interference or other proceeding in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or PTO, or a court to determine priority of invention in the United States, for pre-AIA applications and patents. For post-AIA applications and patents, we or our licensors may have to participate in a derivation proceeding to resolve disputes relating to inventorship. The costs of these proceedings could be substantial, and it is possible that such efforts would be unsuccessful, resulting in our inability to obtain or retain any U.S. patent rights with respect to such invention. Some of our competitors may be better able to sustain the costs of complex patent disputes and litigation than we can because they have substantially greater resources. In addition, any uncertainties resulting from the initiation and continuation of any disputes or litigation could have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise the funds necessary to continue our operations. - 35 - In addition to pursuing patents on our technology, we seek to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technology by entering into intellectual property assignment and non-disclosure agreements with our employees, consultants and third party collaborators. See “—We may be unable to adequately prevent disclosure of trade secrets and other proprietary information, or the misappropriation of the intellectual property we regard as our own”. Obtaining and maintaining our patent protection depends upon compliance with various procedural, document submission, fee payment and other requirements imposed by governmental patent agencies, and our patent protection could be reduced or eliminated for non-compliance with these requirements. The PTO and various foreign governmental patent agencies require compliance with a number of procedural, documentary, fee payment and other provisions during the patent prosecution process and following the issuance of a patent. There are situations in which noncompliance with these requirements can result in abandonment or lapse of a patent or patent application, resulting in partial or complete loss of patent rights in the relevant jurisdiction. In such an event, competitors might be able to enter the market earlier than would otherwise have been the case if our patent were in force. Our intellectual property rights may not be sufficient to protect our competitive position and to prevent others from manufacturing, using or selling competing products. The scope of our owned and exclusively licensed intellectual property rights may not be sufficient to prevent others from manufacturing, using or selling competing products. For example, our manufacturing process for MosaiQ Microarrays depends in part on intellectual property that we in-license on an exclusive basis, and such rights may be limited. Our competitors may have obtained or be able to develop or obtain a license to similar intellectual property. Competitors could purchase our product and attempt to replicate some or all of the competitive advantages we derive from our development efforts, willfully infringe our intellectual property rights, design around our protected technology or develop their own competitive technologies and thereby avoid infringing our intellectual property rights. If our intellectual property is not sufficient to effectively prevent our competitors from developing and selling similar products, our competitive position and our business could be adversely affected. MosaiQ depends on certain technologies that are licensed to us. We do not control these technologies and any loss of our rights to them could prevent us from manufacturing our products. We rely on licenses to various proprietary technologies that are material to our business, including the development of MosaiQ. We have entered into an exclusive license with TTP, to use patented technologies to enable high volume manufacturing of MosaiQ Microarrays. In addition, STRATEC SE, or STRATEC, has agreed to grant us licenses to certain of its pre-existing technologies, and has granted us licenses to its technologies that were developed under our development agreement with it for the MosaiQ Instrument. Our rights to use these technologies will be subject to the continuation of and our compliance with the terms of those licenses. If we were to lose access to these licenses, we would be unable to manufacture MosaiQ Microarrays or commercialize MosaiQ Instruments until we obtained access to a comparable technology. We may not control the prosecution, maintenance or filing of the patents to which we now hold or in the future intend to acquire licenses. Enforcement of our licensed patents or defense of any claims asserting the invalidity of these patents may be subject to the control or cooperation of our licensors. We cannot be certain that our licensors will prosecute, maintain, enforce and defend the licensed patent rights in a manner consistent with the best interests of our business. We also cannot be certain that drafting or prosecution of the licensed patents and patent applications by the relevant licensors have been or will be conducted in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, will result in valid and enforceable patents or that any patents or patents that may issue in the future on any patent applications owned by or exclusively licensed to us will provide any competitive advantage. Certain of our licenses contain, and any future licenses may contain, provisions that allow the licensor to terminate the license upon the occurrence of certain events, such as material breach by us or our insolvency. For example, the TTP license is for uses that include antigen typing, antibody detection and serological screening of donated blood for infectious diseases (collectively, the initial purpose), as well as all human blood sample diagnostic testing on batch processing instruments (collectively, the additional purposes), with the exception of companion diagnostics, epigenetics, and nucleic acid sequencing. If any of certain agreed upon license payments are not made by us when due, we will lose the license to the additional purposes, but not the initial purpose. TTP may terminate its license agreement with us if we assist another party in disputing the validity and/or scope of any of TTP’s patented intellectual property covered by the agreement. If the licensors of the technologies we rely on were to terminate our license agreements, the commercialization of MosaiQ could be prevented or delayed, and we may be unable to find a suitable replacement technology at an acceptable cost or at all. Our rights under each of the licenses may be subject to our continued compliance with the terms of the license, including certain diligence, disclosure and confidentiality obligations and the payment of fees. If we breach any of our license agreements and fail to cure the breach within any applicable cure period, our licensors may take action against us, including termination of the applicable license. Determining the scope of our licenses and related obligations can be difficult and could lead to disputes between us and the licensors. An unfavorable resolution of such a dispute could lead to termination of the license to which a - 36 - dispute relates. If a licensor terminates a license agreement because of a breach by us that we fail to timely cure, we might no longer have the right to produce or sell some or all of our products and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. We may become involved in disputes relating to our intellectual property rights, and may need to resort to litigation in order to defend and enforce our intellectual property rights. Extensive litigation regarding patents and other intellectual property rights has been common in the medical diagnostics industry. Litigation may be necessary to assert infringement claims, protect trade secrets or know-how and determine the enforceability, scope and validity of certain proprietary rights. Litigation may even be necessary to resolve disputes of inventorship or ownership of proprietary rights. The defense and prosecution of intellectual property lawsuits, PTO interference or derivation proceedings and related legal and administrative proceedings (e.g., a re-examination) in the United States and internationally involve complex legal and factual questions. As a result, such proceedings are costly and time consuming to pursue, and their outcome is uncertain. Even if we prevail in such a proceeding in which we assert our intellectual property rights against third parties, the remedy we obtain may not be commercially meaningful or adequately compensate us for any damages we may have suffered. If we do not prevail in such a proceeding, our patents could potentially be declared to be invalid, unenforceable or narrowed in scope, or we could otherwise lose valuable intellectual property rights. Similar proceedings involving the intellectual property we exclusively license could also have an impact on our business. Further, if any of our other owned or exclusively licensed patents are declared invalid, unenforceable or narrowed in scope, our competitive position could be adversely affected. We could face claims that our activities or the manufacture, use or sale of our products infringe the intellectual property rights of others, which could cause us to pay damages or licensing fees and limit our ability to sell some or all of our products and services. Our commercial success depends significantly on our ability to operate without infringing the patents and other intellectual property rights of third parties. Other entities may have or obtain patents or other intellectual property rights that could limit our ability to manufacture or commercialize MosaiQ, or may claim that our research, development and commercialization activities infringe patents or other intellectual property rights owned by them of which we may be unaware because the relevant patent applications may have been filed but not yet published. Certain of our competitors and other companies have substantial patent portfolios, and may attempt to use patent litigation as a means to obtain a competitive advantage or to extract licensing revenue. In addition to patent infringement claims, we may also be subject to other claims relating to the violation of intellectual property rights, such as claims that we have misappropriated trade secrets or infringed third party trademarks. The risks of being involved in such litigation may also increase as we gain greater visibility as a public company and as we gain commercial acceptance of our products and move into new markets and applications for our products. Regardless of merit or outcome, our involvement in any litigation, interference or other administrative proceedings could cause us to incur substantial expense and could significantly divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel. Any public announcements related to litigation or interference proceedings initiated or threatened against us could cause our share price to decline. An adverse determination, or any actions we take or agreements we enter into in order to resolve or avoid disputes, may subject us to the loss of our proprietary position or to significant liabilities, or require us to seek licenses that may include substantial cost and ongoing royalties. Licenses may not be available from third parties, or may not be obtainable on satisfactory terms. An adverse determination or a failure to obtain necessary licenses may restrict or prevent us from manufacturing and selling our products and offering our services. These outcomes could materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property outside of the United States. The laws of some foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States, and 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 and for licensors, if they were to seek to do so, to stop infringement of patents that are licensed to us. 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. Additionally, prosecuting and maintaining intellectual property (particularly patent) rights are very costly endeavors, and for these and other reasons we may not pursue or obtain patent protection in all major markets. We do not know whether legal and government fees will increase substantially and therefore are unable to predict whether cost may factor into our global intellectual property strategy. In addition to the risks associated with patent rights, the laws in some foreign jurisdictions may not provide protection for our trade secrets and other intellectual property. If our trade secrets or other intellectual property are misappropriated in foreign jurisdictions, we may be without adequate remedies to address these issues. Additionally, we also rely on confidentiality and assignment of invention - 37 - agreements to protect our intellectual property in foreign jurisdictions. These agreements may provide for contractual remedies in the event of misappropriation, but we do not know to what extent, if any, these agreements and any remedies for their breach, will be enforced by a foreign court. In the event our intellectual property is misappropriated or infringed upon and an adequate remedy is not available, our prospects will likely diminish. The sale of products that infringe our intellectual property rights, particularly if such products are offered at a lower cost, could negatively impact our ability to achieve commercial success and may materially and adversely harm our business. Our failure to secure trademark registrations could adversely affect our business and our ability to market our products and product candidates. Our trademark applications in the United States and any other jurisdictions where we may file may not be allowed for registration, and our registered trademarks may not be maintained or enforced. During trademark registration proceedings, we may receive rejections. Although we are given an opportunity to respond to those rejections, we may be unable to overcome such rejections. In addition, in the PTO and in corresponding foreign agencies, third parties are given an opportunity to oppose pending trademark applications and to seek to cancel registered trademarks. Opposition or cancellation proceedings may be filed against our applications and/or registrations, and our applications and/or registrations may not survive such proceedings. Failure to secure such trademark registrations in the United States and in foreign jurisdictions could adversely affect our business and our ability to market our products and product candidates. We may be unable to adequately prevent disclosure of trade secrets and other proprietary information, or the misappropriation of the intellectual property we regard as our own. We rely on trade secrets to protect our proprietary know how and technological advances, particularly where we do not believe patent protection is appropriate or obtainable. Nevertheless, trade secrets are difficult to protect. We rely in part on confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, third party collaborators and other advisors to protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information. These agreements generally require that the other party to the agreement keep confidential and not disclose to third parties all confidential information developed by us or made known to the other party by us during the course of the other party’s relationship with us. These agreements may not effectively prevent disclosure of confidential information and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. Monitoring unauthorized disclosure is difficult, and we do not know whether the steps we have taken to prevent such disclosure are, or will be, adequate. If we were to seek to pursue a claim that a third party had illegally obtained and was using our trade secrets, it would be expensive and time consuming, and the outcome would be unpredictable. Further, courts outside the United States may be less willing to protect trade secrets. In addition, others may independently discover our trade secrets and proprietary information and therefore be free to use such trade secrets and proprietary information. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our proprietary rights. In addition, our trade secrets and proprietary information may be misappropriated because of breaches of our electronic or physical security systems in which case we may have no legal recourse. Failure to obtain, or maintain, trade secret protection could enable competitors to use our proprietary information to develop products that compete with our products or cause additional, material adverse effects upon our competitive business position. We may be subject to claims that our employees have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of their former employers. As is common our industry, we employ individuals who were previously employed at other companies in our industry or in related industries, including our competitors or potential competitors. We may be subject to claims that these employees or we have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information of their former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. Even if we are successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management. Risks Related to Our Ordinary Shares We are eligible to be treated as a smaller reporting company and we cannot be certain that the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies will not make our ordinary shares less attractive to investors. We are a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. As a smaller reporting company the disclosure we are required to provide in our SEC filings is less than it would be if we were not considered a smaller reporting company. - 38 - Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act defines a “smaller reporting company” as an issuer that is not an investment company, an asset- backed issuer or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent that is not a smaller reporting company and that: (1) had a public float of less than $250 million; or (2) had annual revenues of less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available and either had no public float or a public float of less than $700 million. In the case of reporting companies like us, public float is calculated as of the last business day of the issuer's most recently completed second fiscal quarter and calculated by multiplying the aggregate world wide number of shares of its voting and non-voting common equity held by non affiliates by the price at which the common equity was last sold, or the average. Smaller reporting companies are able to provide simplified executive compensation disclosures in their filings, and have certain other decreased disclosure obligations in their SEC filings, including, among other things, being required to provide only two years of audited financial statements in annual reports. Moreover, we are a smaller reporting company by virtue of our having less than $100 million in annual revenues for the year ended March 31, 2021 and a public float of less than $700 million as of September 30, 2020 and, as a result, we are deemed to be a “non- accelerated filer” under applicable SEC rules. By virtue of this filer status, we are not required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We cannot predict if investors will find our ordinary shares less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our ordinary shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our ordinary shares and the price of our ordinary shares may be more volatile. The price of our ordinary shares is likely to be volatile, and purchasers of our ordinary shares could incur substantial losses. Like other emerging life sciences companies, the market price of our ordinary shares is likely to be volatile. The factors below may also have a material adverse effect on the market price of our ordinary shares: fluctuations in our results of operations; delays in the planned commercialization of MosaiQ; speed and timing of adoption of MosaiQ by key target customers; our ability to enter new markets; negative publicity; changes in securities or industry analyst recommendations regarding our company, the sectors in which we operate, the securities market generally, conditions in the financial markets and the perception of our ability to raise additional funding; regulatory developments affecting MosaiQ or our industry, including announcement of new adverse regulatory decisions affecting our industry or MosaiQ; announcements of studies and reports relating to our products, including MosaiQ, or those of our competitors; changes in economic performance or market valuations of our competitors; actual or anticipated fluctuations in our annual and quarterly financial results; conditions in the industries in which we operate; announcements by us or our competitors of new products, acquisitions, strategic relations, joint ventures or capital commitments; additions to or departures of our key executives and employees; fluctuations of exchange rates; release or expiry of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on our outstanding ordinary shares subject to such restrictions; and sales or perceived sales of additional ordinary shares. - 39 - In addition, the securities of life sciences companies have in recent years experienced significant volatility. The volatility of the securities of life sciences companies often does not relate to the operating performance of those companies. As we operate in a single industry, we are especially vulnerable to these factors to the extent that they affect our industry or our products, or to a lesser extent our markets. In addition, more recently, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This volatility has had a significant impact on the market price of securities issued by many companies across many industries. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources, and could also require us to make substantial payments to satisfy judgments or to settle litigation. If securities analysts do not continue to cover our ordinary shares or publish unfavorable research or reports about our business, this may have a negative impact on the market price of our ordinary shares. The trading market for our ordinary shares depends on the research and reports that securities analysts publish about our business and our company. We do not have any control over these analysts. There is no guarantee that securities analysts will continue to cover our ordinary shares. If securities analysts do not cover our ordinary shares, the lack of research coverage may adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares. If our shares are the subject of an unfavorable report, our share price and trading volume would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases to cover our company or fails to publish regular reports on our company, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause our share price or trading volume to decline. Substantial future sales of our ordinary shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the price of our ordinary shares to decline, irrespective of the underlying performance of our business. Additional sales of our ordinary shares in the public market, and in particular sales by our directors, executive officers and principal shareholders, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the market price of our ordinary shares to decline. We had outstanding 102,264,412 ordinary shares as of March 31, 2021, of which approximately 92,166,379 ordinary shares were sold or issued pursuant to effective registration statements or resold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or Rule 144, or are registered for public resale under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and are freely transferable without restriction or additional registration under the Securities Act. A significant number of shares were restricted or control securities that are available, or will be available, for resale subject to volume and other restrictions as applicable under Rule 144. In addition, as of March 31, 2021, 175,525 ordinary shares were subject to outstanding warrants at a weighted average exercise price of $13.67 per share and 1,810,785 ordinary shares were subject to outstanding options at a weighted exercise price of $7.69 per share. To the extent any of these shares are sold into the market, particularly in substantial quantities, the market price of our ordinary shares could decline. We have never paid cash dividends and do not intend to pay cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. We have never paid dividends on ordinary shares and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. In addition, the indenture governing the Secured Notes contains covenants that limit our ability to pay dividends on our ordinary shares. Under Jersey, Channel Islands law, any payment of dividends would be subject to relevant legislation and our Amended Articles of Association provide that all dividends must be approved by our Board of Directors and, in some cases, our shareholders, and may only be paid from our distributable profits available for the purpose, determined on an unconsolidated basis. We incur increased costs as a result of being a public company whose ordinary shares are publicly traded in the United States and our management must devote substantial time to public company compliance programs. As a public company, we have incurred and will continue to incur significant legal, insurance, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. We intend to continue to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment will result in increased general and administrative expenses and may divert management’s time and attention. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed. Our insurance costs have increased, particularly for directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Such costs may further increase in the future, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our Board of Directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and remuneration committee, and qualified executive officers. - 40 - Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or Section 404, we are required to furnish a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting on an annual basis, and our management is also required to evaluate our disclosure controls and procedures quarterly. We cannot assure you that there will not be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls in the future. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to satisfy the continued listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market going forward. Our ordinary shares are listed on Nasdaq. However, we cannot ensure that we will be able to satisfy the continued listing standards of Nasdaq going forward. If we cannot satisfy the continued listing standards going forward, The Nasdaq Stock Market may commence delisting procedures against us, which could result in our ordinary shares being removed from listing on Nasdaq. If our ordinary shares were to be delisted, the liquidity of our ordinary shares could be adversely affected and the market price of our ordinary shares could decrease. Delisting could also adversely affect the ability of a holder of our ordinary shares to trade or obtain quotations on our ordinary shares because of lower trading volumes and transaction delays. These factors could contribute to lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask price for our ordinary shares. You may also not be able to resell your ordinary shares at or above the price you paid for such ordinary shares or at all. The potentially dilutive effect of our warrants, options and Convertible Notes could have an adverse effect on the future market price of our ordinary shares or otherwise adversely affect the interests of our ordinary shareholders. As of March 31, 2021, there were outstanding warrants to purchase (i) 64,000 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of $9.375 per share and (ii) 111,525 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of $16.14 per share. In addition, as of March 31, 2021, there were outstanding options to purchase 1,810,785 ordinary shares at a weighted average exercise price of $7.69 per share. In May 2021, we issued the Convertible Notes which are convertible by the holders thereof at an initial conversion rate of ordinary shares per $1,000.00 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which is equal to a conversion price of $5.67, subject to adjustment. These warrants, options and Convertible Notes are likely to be exercised if the market price of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds the applicable warrant’s or option's exercise price or the Convertible Notes' conversion price. To the extent such warrants, options and Convertible Notes are exercised or converted, additional ordinary shares will be issued, which would dilute the ownership of existing shareholders. We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. If we are unable to develop and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results in a timely manner, which may adversely affect investor confidence in us; materially and adversely affect our business and operating results; and expose us to potential litigation. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. Based on its evaluation in accordance with the Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 Framework), management identified a material weakness in the operation of our internal control related to the historical accounting of the Senior Secured Notes and royalty rights agreements originating in October 2016, August 2018, and June 2019. Specifically, management did not identify the correct accounting treatment at the time of entering these transactions, and accounted for these instruments on a combined basis instead of treating these as seperate freestanding financial instruments. This material weakness resulted in a material misstatement in interest expense for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. This material weakness resulted in the restatement of our previously filed consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s fiscal year 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and its quarterly reports for each of the quarters during the year ended March 31, 2021 and the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2022 on Form 10-Q. Effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. We have identified the steps to remediate the material weakness. These remediation measures may be time consuming and costly and there is no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects. If we are not able to remediate the material weakness, or if we identify any new material weaknesses in the future, we may be unable to maintain compliance with the requirements of securities laws, stock exchange listing rules, or debt instrument covenants regarding timely filing of information; we could lose access to sources of capital or liquidity; and investors may lose confidence in our financial reporting and our stock price may decline as a result. Though we are taking steps to remediate the material weakness, we cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date, or any measures we may take in the future, will be sufficient to remediate the material weakness or avoid potential future material weaknesses. - 41 - Risks Related to Being a Jersey, Channel Islands Company Listing Ordinary Shares Our ordinary shares are issued under the laws of Jersey, Channel Islands, which may not provide the level of legal certainty and transparency afforded by incorporation in a United States state. We are organized under the laws of the Jersey, Channel Islands, a British crown dependency that is an island located off the coast of Normandy, France. Jersey is not a member of the European Union. Jersey, Channel Islands legislation regarding companies is largely based on English corporate law principles. However, there can be no assurance that Jersey, Channel Islands law will not change in the future or that it will serve to protect investors in a similar fashion afforded under corporate law principles in the United States, which could adversely affect the rights of investors. A change in our tax residence could have a negative effect on our future profitability. We are organized under the laws of Jersey, Channel Islands. Our directors seek to ensure that our affairs are conducted in such a manner that we are not resident in any other jurisdiction for tax purposes. It is possible that in the future, whether as a result of a change in law or the practice of any relevant tax authority or as a result of any change in the conduct of our affairs following a review by our directors or for any other reason, we could become, or be regarded as having become, a resident in another higher tax jurisdiction. Should we become a tax resident in another jurisdiction, we may be subject to unexpected tax charges in such jurisdiction. Similarly, if the tax residency of any of our subsidiaries were to change from their current jurisdiction for any of the reasons listed above, we may be subject to similar tax consequences. We may be or become classified as a passive foreign investment company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which could result in materially adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. investors in our ordinary shares. A non-U.S. corporation will be a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for any taxable year in which (1) at least 75% of its gross income is passive income or (2) at least 50% of the value (determined on a quarterly basis) of its assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. Our status as a PFIC depends on certain facts outside of our control and the application of U.S. federal income tax rules that are not entirely clear. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not be classified as a PFIC for our current taxable year or any future taxable year. If we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold our ordinary shares, such treatment could result in materially adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to you if you are a U.S. taxable investor. For example, if we are or become a PFIC, you may become subject to increased tax liabilities under U.S. federal income tax laws and regulations, and will become subject to additional reporting requirements. Although we do not believe we were a PFIC for our taxable year ended March 31, 2021 and do not expect to be a PFIC for the taxable year ending March 31, 2022 or any future taxable year, we cannot assure you that we have not been or will not be a PFIC for any particular taxable year. U.S. investors considering an investment in our ordinary shares are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding our possible status as a PFIC. U.S. withholding tax could apply to a portion of certain payments on the ordinary shares. The United States has enacted rules, commonly referred to as “FATCA,” that generally impose a reporting and withholding regime with respect to certain U.S. source payments (including dividends and interest) and certain payments made by entities that are classified as financial institutions under FATCA ("foreign passthru payments"). The governments of Jersey, Channel Islands and the United States have entered into an agreement with respect to the implementation of FATCA. Under this agreement, we do not expect to be subject to withholding under FATCA on any payments we receive. Similarly, as currently drafted, we do not expect that withholding under FATCA will apply to payments on the ordinary shares. However, significant aspects of whether or how FATCA will apply to non-U.S. issuers like us remain unclear, and no assurance can be given that withholding under FATCA will not become relevant with respect to payments on the ordinary shares in the future. Even if FATCA were to become relevant to payments on the shares, it would not be applicable earlier than the second anniversary of the date on which final regulations defining the term "foreign passthru payments" are published in the U.S. Federal Register. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the potential impact of FATCA, including the agreement relating to FATCA between the governments of Jersey and the United States, to an investment in the ordinary shares. - 42 - U.S. shareholders may not be able to enforce civil liabilities against us. A number of our directors and executive officers and a number of directors of certain of our subsidiaries are not residents of the United States, and a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon such persons. Judgments of U.S. courts may not be directly enforceable outside of the United States and the enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts outside of the United States may be subject to limitations. Investors may also have difficulties pursuing an original action brought in a court in a jurisdiction outside the United States for liabilities under the securities laws of the United States. - 43 - Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None. Item 2. Properties Our corporate headquarters, including our principal manufacturing site for MosaiQ Microarrays are located in Eysins, Switzerland. Our UK corporate offices and other office facilities, a development laboratory facility and our manufacturing facility for conventional reagent products are located near Edinburgh, Scotland.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings We are not currently party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition. However, we may be subject to various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time. Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures Not applicable. - 44 - PART II Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities Market Information Our ordinary shares are traded on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “QTNT”. On May 28, 2021, the last reported sale price of our ordinary shares on Nasdaq was $4.16 per share. Shareholders On May 28, 2021, there were 20 shareholders of record of our ordinary shares. This number does not include shareholders for whom shares were held in a “nominee” or “street” name. Dividends We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our ordinary shares. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings, if any, to fund the development and expansion of our business and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, the indenture governing the Secured Notes contains certain restrictive covenants that limit our ability to pay dividends. Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends, if any, will be made at the complete discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on then existing conditions, including our results of operations, financial conditions, contractual restrictions (including under the indenture for the Secured Notes), capital requirements, business prospects and other factors our Board of Directors may deem relevant. Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans The following table presents certain information about our equity compensation plans as of March 31, 2021: (a) Number of securities to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options and rights (b) Weighted average exercise price of outstanding options and rights Number of shares remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans (excluding securities reflected in column (a)) 2,596,614 $ 116,580 $ 5.21 3.34 538,089 — Equity compensation plans approved by shareholders (1) Equity compensation plans not approved by shareholders (2) (1) Composed of the 2012 Option Plan, pursuant to which 163,715 ordinary shares are issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and rights at a weighted average exercise price of $2.90, and the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, pursuant to which 2,549,479 ordinary shares are issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and rights at a weighted average exercise price of $5.27.

Selected Consolidated Financial Data Reserved. - 46 - Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes to those statements included later in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A. Our discussion of results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 is included in Part II, Item 7 of the annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. This Annual Report on Form 10-K/A restates amounts included in the 2021 Annual Report as at March 31, 2021 and 2020, and for the years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. See Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements, in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, for additional information. The relevant unaudited interim financial information for each of the quarters during the year ended March 31, 2021 has also been restated. See Note 16, Quarterly Results of Operations (Unaudited), in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, for such restated information. The restatement also includes corrections for other errors previously identified as immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, to our consolidated financial statements. The impact of the restatement is reflected in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations below. In addition to historical financial information, the discussion below contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, beliefs and expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report, particularly in “Risk Factors.” Overview We were incorporated in Jersey, Channel Islands on January 18, 2012. On February 16, 2012, we acquired the entire issued share capital of Alba Bioscience Limited (or Alba), Quotient Biodiagnostics, Inc. (or QBDI) and QBD (QS IP) Limited (or QSIP) from Quotient Biodiagnostics Group Limited (or QBDG), our predecessor. Our Business We are a commercial-stage diagnostics company committed to reducing healthcare costs and improving patient care through the provision of innovative tests within established markets. Our initial focus is on blood grouping and donor disease screening, which is commonly referred to as transfusion diagnostics. Blood grouping involves specific procedures performed at donor or patient testing laboratories to characterize blood, which includes antigen typing and antibody detection. Disease screening involves the screening of donor blood for unwanted pathogens using two different methods, a serological approach (testing for specific antigens or antibodies) and a molecular approach (testing for DNA or RNA). We have over 35 years of experience developing, manufacturing and commercializing conventional reagent products used for blood grouping within the global transfusion diagnostics market. We are developing MosaiQ, our proprietary technology platform, to better address the comprehensive needs of this large and established market. We believe MosaiQ has the potential to transform transfusion diagnostics, significantly reducing the cost of blood grouping in the donor and patient testing environments, while improving patient outcomes. We currently operate as one business segment with 435 employees in the United Kingdom, Switzerland and the United States as of March 31, 2021. Our principal markets are the United States, Europe and Japan. Based on the location of the customer, revenues outside the United States accounted for 35%, 45% and 49% of total revenue during the years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations in each year since we commenced operations in 2007. As of March 31, 2021, we had an accumulated deficit of $599.9 million. We expect our operating losses will continue for at least the next fiscal year as we continue our investment in the commercialization of MosaiQ. Our total revenue was $43.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2021, $32.7 million for the year ended March 31, 2020 and $29.1 million for the year ended March 31, 2019. Our net loss was $111.0 million for the year ended March 31, 2021, $105.1 million for the year ended March 31, 2020 and $106.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2019. - 47 - From our incorporation in 2012 to March 31, 2020, we have raised $160.0 million of gross proceeds through the private placement of our ordinary and preference shares and warrants, $346.7 million of gross proceeds from public offerings of our shares and issuances of ordinary shares upon exercise of warrants and $145.0 million of gross proceeds from the issuance of 12% Senior Secured Notes, or the Secured Notes. On September 15, 2020, we completed a public offering of 20,294,117 newly issued ordinary shares at a price of $4.25 per share which raised $86.3 million of gross proceeds before deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses of $5.6 million. In May 2021, we issued $95.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes. On or prior to June 2, 2021, we may issue up to an additional $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes in one or more subsequent offerings. As discussed further below under "—Liquidity and Capital Resources," we have approximately $35.0 million of cash invested in two funds that have suspended redemptions, and there can be no assurance as to the timing or amount of future distributions from these funds. As of March 31, 2021, we had available cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $111.7 million and $9.0 million of restricted cash held as part of the arrangements relating to our Secured Notes and the lease of our property in Eysins, Switzerland. Regulatory and Commercial Milestones You should read the following regulatory and commercial milestones update in conjunction with the discussion included under the sections “Item 1. Business” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors”. • • • • • Initial European Regulatory Approval – we filed for European regulatory approval for our initial MosaiQ IH Microarray in late September 2018 and were notified of its approval on April 30, 2019. We also filed for European regulatory approval of the initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray in June 2019 and were notified of its approval on February 14, 2020. Ongoing Microarray Menu Development – our activities for the expansion of our IH and SDS, testing menus included the completion of the validation and verification, or “V&V”, concordance study for the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray menu, which we announced in October 2019. The V&V study for the expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarray is planned for the coming months. Field Trials – we commenced field trials for the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray in Europe in the first quarter of calendar year 2020. These trials were initially suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, but by the end of May 2020, quarantine and containment measures and restrictions had eased in all three trial locations allowing the work to recommence. However, subsequent governmental restrictions implemented towards the end of 2020 impacted our ability to conduct these trials, as discussed below. We announced the initial results from these trials in November 2020. Based on our internal performance testing, we subsequently determined to enhance a limited number of the tests on the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray. Since then, further field trials in Europe and the United States for the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray have been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect these trials to re-commence in the second quarter of calendar year 2021 in Europe and in the second half of calendar year 2021 in the United States. We expect field trials for the expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarray to commence towards the end of calendar year 2021. Ongoing Regulatory Approval Process – we filed for U.S. regulatory approval for our initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray on December 23, 2019. On December 10, 2020, we received a request from the FDA for additional testing data related to specific individual performance characteristics of the assays on this microarray. We anticipate that we will resubmit our filing and receive 510(k) clearance for the initial MosaiQ SDS Microarray during the calendar year 2021. We expect to make the initial European regulatory submissions for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray during the third quarter of calendar year 2021, with the U.S. regulatory submissions following in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2021 or first quarter of calendar year 2022. We expect to receive the CE mark for the expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray by the fourth quarter of calendar year 2021. We expect to make a European regulatory submission for the expanded MosaiQ SDS Microarray in the second quarter of calendar year 2022, with the U.S. regulatory submission following in the second or third quarter of calendar year 2022. As noted above, our progress toward regulatory approvals has been adversely impacted by the disruptive effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our timing expectations described in this paragraph are subject to a variety of factors, including COVID-19 impacts, that could cause further delays. Patient IH Microarray – we are developing for Ortho the MosaiQ IH3 Microarray, and we expect to submit it for CE mark in the first half of calendar year 2022. - 48 - COVID-19 Pandemic You should read the following update regarding the COVID-19 pandemic in conjunction with the discussion included under the sections “Item 1. Business” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors”. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The governments of each of the major locations in which we operate, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and the United States, have implemented varying measures and restrictions to combat the COVID- 19 pandemic. The restrictions implemented at the beginning of the pandemic directly impacted our on-going clinical trials for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray in Europe and the commencement of clinical trials for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray in the United States. All external work on these trials was suspended in March 2020 until such time as the existing restrictions in the relevant jurisdictions are removed or moderated. By the end of May 2020, quarantine and containment measures and restrictions had eased in all of the three European trial locations allowing the work to recommence. In addition, on April 6, 2020, we announced the completion of the development phase of the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. On April 27, 2020, we published the final performance data for the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray, achieving 100% sensitivity and 99.8% specificity, and on May 1, 2020, we announced the CE Mark for this Microarray. In addition, in May 2020, we submitted an application to the FDA for an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray in the United States, and in September 2020, we announced the EUA had been issued by the FDA for this Microarray. We signed the first commercial contract for the sale of the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray in May 2020, and we have subsequently entered into nine additional contracts with customers in Europe and the United States. In addition, we developed an enhanced, semi-quantitative MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray, which was CE marked as of January 29, 2021. Towards the end of 2020 and beginning of 2021, there was a widespread increase, or "second wave," in reported infections from COVID-19, including in Europe and the United States. In response, various countries including in Europe announced the re- imposition of some restrictions on social, business and other activities. Government travel restrictions and lockdowns imposed in response to the second wave seriously affected our operations in Europe and the United Kingdom. In spite of this widespread increase of COVID-19 infections, the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated restrictions have not had a material adverse impact on our conventional reagent revenues. Customer demand has remained robust since March 31, 2020 and, to date, supply chain disruptions have been minimal. Our manufacturing operations in Edinburgh, Scotland have been adapted to meet social distancing requirements, which impacted our operating costs during the year ended March 31, 2021. However, the second wave negatively affected the on-going field trials for our expanded MosaiQ IH Microarray, with travel restrictions and lockdowns making it difficult for relevant teams to spend time on-site and resulting in trials repeatedly stopping and restarting. Furthermore, these restrictions and lockdowns have impacted our research and development activities, slowed down the regulatory approval process and delayed the timing of customer tenders. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our business, operations and financial results will depend on future developments and numerous evolving factors, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict. See Item 1A. Risk Factors – "We face risks related to health pandemics, epidemics and outbreaks, including the outbreak of the current COVID-19 pandemic, which could significantly disrupt our operations and could have a material adverse impact on us." Revenue We generate product sales revenue from the sale of conventional reagent products directly to hospitals, donor collection agencies and independent testing laboratories in the United States, the United Kingdom and to distributors in Europe and the rest of the world, and indirectly through sales to our OEM customers. We recognize revenues in the form of product sales when the goods are shipped. Products sold by standing purchase orders as a percentage of product sales revenue were 67%, 70% and 68% for the years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We also provide product development services to our OEM customers. We recognize revenue from these contractual relationships in the form of product development fees, which are included in Other revenues. In addition, during the year ended March 31, 2021, we began to generate sales revenue from the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray in Europe and the United States, and our product sales from this microarray were approximately $1.3 million during this period. Although we believe that these product sales could continue in the first half of the next financial year, we believe there is ultimately a limited opportunity for future revenue from our MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray beyond that timeframe, based on the limited demand - 49 - for COVID-19 antibody testing that we are observing. For a description of our revenue recognition policies, see “—Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates—Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable.” Our revenue is denominated in multiple currencies. Sales in the United States and to certain of our OEM customers are denominated in U.S. Dollars. Sales in Europe and the rest of the world are denominated primarily in U.S. Dollars, Pounds Sterling or Euros. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, which are primarily in the United Kingdom, Switzerland and the United States. We operate globally and therefore changes in foreign currency exchange rates may become material to us in the future due to factors beyond our control. See “—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk— Foreign Currency Exchange Risk.” Cost of revenue and operating expenses Cost of revenue consists of direct labor expenses, including employee benefits, overhead expenses, material costs and freight costs, along with the depreciation of manufacturing equipment and leasehold improvements. Our gross profit represents total revenue less the cost of revenue, gross margin represents gross profit expressed as a percentage of total revenue, and gross margin on product sales represents gross margin excluding other revenues as a percentage of revenues excluding other revenues. We expect our overall cost of revenue to increase in absolute U.S. Dollars as we continue to increase our product sales volumes. However, we also believe that we can achieve efficiencies in our manufacturing operations, primarily through increasing production volumes. Our sales and marketing expenses include costs associated with our sales organization for conventional reagent products, including our direct sales force, as well as our marketing and customer service personnel, and the costs of the MosaiQ commercial team. These expenses consist principally of salaries, commissions, bonuses and employee benefits, as well as travel and other costs related to our sales and product marketing activities. We expense all sales and marketing costs as incurred. We expect sales and marketing expense to increase in absolute U.S. Dollars, primarily as a result of commissions on increased product sales in the United States and as we grow the MosaiQ commercial team. Our research and development expenses include costs associated with performing research, development, field trials and our regulatory activities, as well as production costs incurred in advance of the commercial launch of MosaiQ. Research and development expenses include research personnel-related expenses, fees for contractual and consulting services, travel costs, laboratory supplies and depreciation of laboratory equipment. We expense all research and development costs as incurred, net of government grants received and tax credits. Our UK subsidiary claims certain tax credits on its research and development expenditures and these are included as an offset to our research and development expenses. Our research and development efforts are focused on developing new products and technologies for the global transfusion diagnostics market. We segregate research and development expenses for the MosaiQ project from expenses for other research and development projects. We do not maintain detailed records of these other costs by activity. We are nearing completion of the initial development of MosaiQ and expect our costs associated with field trials and regulatory approvals will increase at the same time as our development costs decrease. As we move to commercialization of MosaiQ in the donor testing market, we expect our overall research and development expense to decrease. Our general and administrative expenses include costs for our executive, accounting and finance, legal, corporate development, information technology and human resources functions. We expense all general and administrative expenses as incurred. These expenses consist principally of salaries, bonuses and employee benefits for the personnel performing these functions, including travel costs. These expenses also include share-based compensation, professional service fees (such as audit, tax and legal fees), costs related to our Board of Directors, and general corporate overhead costs, which include depreciation and amortization. We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase as our business develops and also due to the costs of operating as a public company, such as additional legal, accounting and corporate governance expenses, including expenses related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, directors’ and officers’ insurance premiums and investor relations expenses. Net interest expense consists primarily of interest charges on our Secured Notes and the amortization of debt issuance costs (which includes amortization of the one-time consent payment of $3.9 million paid to holders of our Secured Notes in December 2018), as well as accrued dividends on the 7% cumulative redeemable preference shares issued in January 2015. We amortize debt issuance costs over the life of the note and report them as interest expense in our statements of operations. Net interest also includes the expected costs of the royalty rights agreements we entered into in October 2016, June 2018, December 2018 and May 2019 with the purchasers or holders of the Secured Notes, as applicable. See Note 4 “Debt” and Note 9 “Ordinary and Preference Shares – Preference shares” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report for additional information. Other income (expense), net consists primarily of exchange fluctuations. These include realized exchange fluctuations resulting from the settlement of transactions in currencies other than the functional currencies of our businesses. Monetary assets and liabilities that - 50 - are denominated in foreign currencies are measured at the period-end closing rate with resulting unrealized exchange fluctuations. The functional currencies of our business are Pounds Sterling, Swiss Franc and U.S. Dollars depending on the entity. Other income (expense) also includes exceptional costs related to deferred debt issue costs expensed on the repayment of debt facilities and certain other non-recurring items as mentioned below under “—Results of Operations— Comparison of Years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020— Other income (expense)” and “—Results of Operations— Comparison of Years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019— Other income (expense).” As discussed in more detail below, provision for income taxes in the year ended March 31, 2021 reflected the taxes payable on the taxable income of a subsidiary and the resolution of a major tax uncertainty related to the treatment of certain tax depreciation allowances. Provision for income taxes in the years ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 reflected a reduction in the net operating losses available to be carried forward in a subsidiary as a result of the offset of historic tax losses against the profits of this subsidiary and adjustments for uncertain tax positions. Results of Operations Comparison of Years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the amounts of certain components of our statements of operations and the percentage of total revenue represented by these items, showing period-to-period changes.

The increase in product sales revenue was primarily attributable to incremental direct sales of conventional reagent products to customers in the United States and product sales to OEM customers. Products sold by standing purchase order were 67% of product sales for the year ended March 31, 2021, compared with 70% for the year ended March 31, 2020. Total revenue for the year ended March 31, 2021 increased by 33% to $43.4 million compared with $32.7 million in the year ended March 31, 2020, and included other revenues arising from the achievement of product development milestones of $7.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively. - 51 - The below table sets forth revenue by product group: Revenue: Product sales - OEM customers Product sales - direct customers and distributors Product sales - MosaiQ Other revenues Total revenue Year ended March 31, Amount 2021 % of revenue 2020 % of revenue (in thousands, except percentages) Amount Change Amount % $ 23,224 54% $ 21,217 65% $ 2,007 9.5% 11,287 1,276 7,592 43,379 $ 26% 3% 17% 100% $ 10,384 — 1,055 32,656 32% 0% 3% 100% $ 903 1,276 6,537 10,723 8.7% 100% 620% 33% OEM Sales. Product sales to OEM customers increased 10% to $23.2 million for the year ended March 31, 2021, compared with $21.2 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. The increase was due to increased sales to existing customers and the impact and an additional shipment of red blood cell-based products in March 2021. Direct Sales to Customers and Distributors. Direct product sales increased 9% to $11.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2021 compared with $10.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. This mainly consisted of direct sales in the United States which increased to $10.2 million in the year ended March 31, 2021 compared with $9.5 million in the year ended March 31, 2020 as a result of recent product launches and the expansion of our customer base. MosaiQ Product Sales. MosaiQ sales in the year ended March 31, 2021 consisted of revenues from our MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray. There were no MosaiQ sales in the year ended March 31, 2020. Other Revenues. Other revenues for the year ended March 31, 2021 arose from the recognition of an initial milestone payment of $7.5 million received from Ortho in respect of the development of the MosaiQ IH3 Microarray and a small development project for an OEM customer. Other revenues in the year ended March 31, 2020 arose from the achievement of product development milestones on another development contract, which was completed during the year ended March 31, 2020. See Note 1 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Revenue Recognition" to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report for additional information. Cost of revenue and gross margin Cost of revenue increased by 13% to $20.1 million for the year ended March 31, 2021, compared with $17.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. The increase in cost of revenue reflected additional costs associated with operating social distancing restrictions and the incremental costs associated with the 13% increase in product sales in the year ended March 31, 2021. For the year ended March 31, 2021 salaries, benefits and other employee expenses represented 29.0% of total cost of revenue compared to 31.7% in the year ended March 31, 2020. Gross profit on total revenue in the year ended March 31, 2021 was $23.3 million, an increase of 57% when compared with $14.9 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. The increase was attributable to the $6.5 million increase in other revenues (the associated cost of which was included in research and development expenses) in the year ended March 31, 2021 and the increase in gross margin on product sales described below. Gross profit on product sales, which excludes other revenues, was $15.7 million for the year ended March 31, 2021 compared with $13.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. This increase was due to the gross profit on increased sales to existing and new customers, offset in part by higher costs associated with social distancing requirements. Gross margin on product sales, which excludes other revenues, was 44% for the year ended March 31, 2021 compared with 44% for the year ended March 31, 2020. Sales and marketing expenses Sales and marketing expense were unchanged at $9.9 million for the year ended March 31, 2021, compared with $9.9 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. Cost reductions associated with reduced travel expenses and the cancellation of sales conferences due to the COVID-19 pandemic were offset by increased headcount and staff benefit costs. As a percentage of total revenue, sales and marketing expenses were 23% for the year ended March 31, 2021 compared to 30% for the year ended March 31, 2020. For the year ended March 31, 2021 salaries, benefits and other employee expenses represented 75.8% of total sales and marketing expenses compared to 69.5% in the year ended March 31, 2020. - 52 - Research and development expenses Year ended March 31, Amount 2021 % of revenue 2020 % of revenue (in thousands, except percentages) Amount Change Amount % Research and development expenses: MosaiQ research and development Other research and development Tax credits Total research and development expenses $ 53,106 1,425 (804) 122% $ 3% -2% 51,895 2,035 (493) 159% $ 6% -1% 1,211 (610) (311) $ 53,727 124% $ 53,437 164% $ 290 2% -30% 63% 1% Research and development expenses increased by 1% or $0.3 million to $53.7 million for the year ended March 31, 2021, compared with $53.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. Our research and development expenses included expenses of $1.0 million in both the year ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 related to the costs of our intellectual property license with TTP. During the year ended March 31, 2021, we recorded inventory provisions of $2.0 million in respect of certain raw materials and work-in-progress items following evaluation of further development data and corresponding changes in manufacturing processes. We also incurred additional development costs for the MosaiQ COVID-19 Microarray and higher employee costs in the year ended March 31, 2021. These expenses were offset by a $3.8 million decrease in depreciation charges as a result of certain leasehold improvements becoming fully depreciated in the year ended March 31, 2021, as well as the impact of extending the useful economic lives of certain operating equipment. In addition, termination benefit costs of $0.7 million were included in the year ended March 31, 2020. There were no termination benefit costs in the year ended March 31, 2021. For the year ended March 31, 2021 salaries, benefits and other employee expenses represented 40.6% of total research and development expenses compared to 38.8% in the year ended March 31, 2020. General and administrative expenses General and administrative expenses increased 33% to $42.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2021, compared with $32.0 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. In the year ended March 31, 2021, our general and administrative expenses included $4.2 million in costs associated with the appointment of our new Chief Executive Officer, $1.2 million in transition benefits payable to our former Chief Executive Officer and $0.4 million transition benefits payable to our former Chief Operating Officer. This compared to termination and transition benefit costs of $1.3 million in the year ended March 31, 2020. The increase in general and administrative expenses also included additional legal expenses of $2 million related to our dispute with Ortho, higher D&O insurance costs of $2.3 million and increases in other advisory fees. We recognized $5.0 million of stock compensation expense in the year ended March 31, 2021 compared with $4.5 million in the year ended March 31, 2020. Stock compensation expense is recognized over the expected vesting period of incentive awards. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses was 98% for the year ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020. For the year ended March 31, 2021 salaries, benefits and other employee expenses (including stock compensation expenses) represented 58.9% of total general and administrative expenses compared to 58.7% in the year ended March 31, 2020. Other income (expense) Net interest expense was $29.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2021, compared with $26.9 million for the year ended March 31, 2020. Interest expense in the year ended March 31, 2021 included $22.3 million of coupon interest and amortization of debt discount and issue costs on our Secured Notes compared with $21.0 million in the year ended March 31, 2020. The increase was due to the additional issuance of $25 million of Secured Notes on May 15, 2019. Interest expense in the years ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 included amortization of deferred debt issue and royalty interest of $8.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively. The increased expense reflected changes in the royalty cost estimates. In each of the years ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, net interest expense also included $1.1 million of accrued dividends on the 7% cumulative redeemable preference shares issued in January 2015. In addition, in the year ended March 31, 2021 we earned interest income of $1.6 million on our money market deposits as compared with $1.3 million in the year ended March 31, 2020. Other, net in the year ended March 31, 2021 was comprised of $5.0 million of foreign exchange gains arising on monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and an impairment charge of $2.3 million in respect of our short term investments. Other, net comprised $2.2 million of foreign exchange gains for the year ended March 31, 2020. - 53 - Provision for income taxes Provision for income taxes in the year ended March 31, 2021 reflected the taxes payable on the taxable income of a subsidiary and the resolution of a major tax uncertainty related to the treatment of tax depreciation allowances, which resulted in a one-time tax charge of $1.5 million, a reduction of tax related to certain tax credits related to research and development of $0.6 million, and on-going tax charges of $0.4 million. Provision for income taxes in the year ended March 31, 2020 reflects both adjustments to net operating losses carried forward and current tax accruals in a subsidiary as a result of an uncertain tax position. Quarterly Results of Operations Our quarterly product sales can fluctuate depending upon the shipment cycles for our red blood cell-based products, which account for approximately two-thirds of our current product sales. For these products, we typically experience 13 shipping cycles per year. This equates to three shipments of each product per quarter, except for one quarter per year when four shipments occur. In fiscal 2021 we made 14 shipments with the additional shipments in the first and fourth quarters. In fiscal 2020, the greatest impact of extra product shipments occurred in our first quarter. The timing of shipment of bulk antisera products to our OEM customers may also move revenues from quarter to quarter. We also experience some seasonality in demand around holiday periods in both Europe and the United States. As a result of these factors, we expect to continue to see seasonality and quarter-to-quarter variations in our product sales. The timing of product development fees included in other revenues is mostly dependent upon the achievement of pre-negotiated project milestones. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since our commencement of operations in 2007, we have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of March 31, 2021, we had an accumulated deficit of $599.9 million. During the year ended March 31, 2021, we incurred a net loss of $111.0 million and used $77.6 million of cash for operating activities. During the year ended March 31, 2020, we incurred a net loss of $105.1 million and used $80.6 million of cash for operating activities. During the year ended March 31, 2019, we incurred a net loss of $106.4 million and used $75.7 million of cash for operating activities. As described under results of operations, our use of cash during the years ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 was primarily attributable to our investment in the development of MosaiQ and corporate costs, including costs related to being a public company. From our incorporation in 2012 to March 31, 2020, we have raised $160.0 million of gross proceeds through the private placement of our ordinary and preference shares and warrants, $346.7 million of gross proceeds from public offerings of our shares and issuances of ordinary shares upon exercise of warrants and $145.0 million of gross proceeds from the issuance of the Secured Notes. On September 15, 2020, we completed a public offering of 20,294,117 newly issued ordinary shares at a price of $4.25 per share which raised $86.3 million of gross proceeds before deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses of $5.6 million. On March 12, 2021, we announced that two funds managed by CSAM in which we had invested an aggregate of approximately $110.35 million had suspended redemptions. The investments into these funds were made in accordance with our investment policy of making individual investments with a minimum of an A rating from a leading credit-rating agency. Each fund holds short-term credit obligations of various obligors. According to a press release issued by CSAM, redemptions in the funds were suspended because “certain part of the Subfunds’ assets is currently subject to considerable uncertainties with respect to their accurate valuation.” CSAM subsequently began a liquidation of the funds. Pursuant to the liquidation, we have already received cash distributions of approximately $75.6 million. Based on information provided by Credit Suisse, we expect to receive further cash distributions from the funds in the next several months; however, there can be no assurance as to the amount or timing of any such distributions. While Credit Suisse has advised that the credit assets held by the funds are covered by insurance that potentially will be available to cover losses the funds would incur if any of the obligors on the funds’ credit assets were to default, we do not know if the funds will incur losses (net of insurance) on the credit assets held by the funds. We believe, and have advised Credit Suisse, that any such losses should be borne by Credit Suisse. As of March 31, 2021, we had available cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $111.7 million and $9.0 million of restricted cash held as part of the arrangements relating to our Secured Notes and the lease of our property in Eysins, Switzerland. - 54 - On May 26, 2021, we issued and sold $95.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes in a private offering to institutional investors. The Convertible Notes are guaranteed by our material subsidiaries. The Convertible Notes are our unsecured, senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness. The Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at an initial conversion rate of 176.3668 ordinary shares per $1,000.00 principal amount of Convertible Notes, subject to adjustment. We have the right to redeem the Convertible Notes in certain circumstances. On or prior to June 2, 2021, we may issue up to an additional $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes in one or more subsequent offerings. For further information about the Convertible Notes, please see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 27, 2021. We currently expect that the additional net cash generated from the Convertible Notes issuance combined with our existing available cash and short-term investment balances are adequate to meet our forecasted cash requirements for the next twelve months. We expect to fund our operations in the near-term, including the ongoing development of MosaiQ through successful field trial completion, achievement of required regulatory authorizations and commercialization from a combination of funding sources. These expected funding sources include the use of existing available cash and short-term investment balances, the sale of rights and other assets, and the issuance of new equity or debt. Contractual Obligations We have contractual obligations for non-cancelable facilities leases, our Secured Notes and related royalty rights agreements, equipment leases and purchase commitments. The following table sets forth a summary of our contractual obligations as of March 31, 2021.

We can pay dividends on the 7% Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares at any time, but are not obligated to do so until redemption. (2) We have entered into a manufacturing agreement with STRATEC in connection with the supply of MosaiQ instruments over a six year period. The total remaining purchase obligation under this agreement is $68.8 million using March 31, 2021 exchange rates. 12% Senior Secured Notes Due 2024 On October 14, 2016, we completed a private placement of our Secured Notes. Our obligations under the Secured Notes and the related indenture are unconditionally guaranteed on a secured basis by the guarantors, which include all our subsidiaries, and the indenture contains customary events of default. We are also required to comply with certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a requirement to maintain six-months of interest in a cash reserve account maintained with the collateral agent. We issued $84 million aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes on October 14, 2016, an additional $36 million aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes on June 29, 2018 and an additional $25 million of the Secured Notes on May 15, 2019. - 55 - Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, subject to certain conditions, or certain Asset Sales (each, as defined in the indenture), holders of the Secured Notes may require us to repurchase for cash all or part of their Secured Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% or 100%, respectively, of the principal amount of the Secured Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. We paid $7.2 million of the total proceeds of the October 2016 and June 2018 issuances into the cash reserve account maintained with the collateral agent under the terms of the indenture, $2.2 million of which related to the second issuance. We paid a further $1.5 million into the cash reserve account on May 15, 2019 in connection with the issuance of the additional $25 million of Secured Notes on that date. Interest on the Secured Notes accrues at a rate of 12% per annum and is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year commencing on April 15, 2017. Commencing on April 15, 2021, we will also pay an installment of principal of the Secured Notes on each April 15 and October 15 until April 15, 2024 pursuant to a fixed amortization schedule. In connection with the October 2016, June 2018 and May 2019 issuances of the Secured Notes as well as the December 2018 amendment of the related indenture, we entered into royalty rights agreements, pursuant to which we agreed to pay 3.4% of the aggregate net sales of MosaiQ instruments and consumables made in the donor testing market in the United States and the European Union. The royalties will be payable beginning on the date that we make our first sale of MosaiQ consumables in the donor testing market in the European Union or the United States and will end on the last day of the calendar quarter in which the eighth anniversary of the first sale date occurs. Cash Flows for the Years Ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 Operating activities Net cash used in operating activities was $77.6 million during the year ended March 31, 2021, which included net losses of $111.0 million and non-cash items of $32.7 million. Non-cash items were depreciation and amortization expense of $8.4 million, share-based compensation expense of $5.0 million, deferred lease rentals of $0.7 million, Swiss pension costs of $1.1 million, amortization of deferred debt issue costs of $13.0 million, impairment of short term investments of $2.3 million, accrued preference share dividends of $1.0 million and deferred income taxes of $1.3 million. We also experienced a net cash inflow of $0.8 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities during the period, consisting of a $0.5 million increase in inventories, a $0.5 million increase in other assets and a $3.4 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, offset by a $0.6 million decrease in accounts receivable and a $4.5 million increase in accrued compensation and benefits. Net cash used in operating activities was $80.6 million during the year ended March 31, 2020, which included net losses of $105.1 million and non-cash items of $28.4 million. Non-cash items were depreciation and amortization expense of $12.0 million, share- based compensation expense of $4.5 million, deferred lease rentals of $0.3 million, Swiss pension costs of $0.8 million, amortization of deferred debt issue costs of $10.0 million, accrued preference share dividends of $1.0 million and deferred income taxes of $0.2 million. We also experienced a net cash outflow of $4.1 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities during the period, consisting of a $5.2 million increase in inventories, a $0.7 million increase in other assets and a $2.2 million increase in accounts receivable, offset by a $2.8 million increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and a $1.2 million increase in accrued compensation and benefits. Investing activities Net cash from investing activities was $43.4 million in the year ended March 31, 2021, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $30.2 million in the year ended March 31, 2020. We divested $47.7 million net from our short-term investments in the year ended March 31, 2021, compared to investing $25.6 million net in our short term investments in the year ended March 31, 2020. Purchases of property and equipment in the year ended March 31, 2021 were $4.3 million and were mainly related to payments for MosaiQ instruments and IT upgrades. Purchases of property and equipment in the year ended March 31, 2020 were $4.6 million, and were mainly related to payments for an additional assembly unit for our MosaiQ manufacturing facility. - 56 - Financing activities Net cash provided by financing activities was $80.3 million during the year ended March 31, 2021, consisting of $80.7 million generated from the issuance of ordinary shares on September 15, 2020 and $0.2 million generated from the exercise of share options, offset by $0.6 million of repayments on finance leases. Net cash provided by financing activities was $114.6 million during the year ended March 31, 2020, consisting of $24.1 million of net proceeds from the issuance of additional Secured Notes on May 15, 2019, $90.5 million of net proceeds from the issuance of ordinary shares on November 12, 2019 and $0.5 million of proceeds from the exercise of share options, offset by $0.5 million of repayments on finance leases. Operating and Capital Expenditure Requirements We have not achieved profitability on an annual basis since we commenced operations in 2007 and we expect to incur net losses for at least the next fiscal year. As we move towards the commercial launch of MosaiQ in the donor testing market, we expect our operating expenses during the year ended March 31, 2022 to be similar to those of the year ended March 31, 2021, as we continue to invest in growing our customer base, expanding our marketing and distribution channels, completing field trials and regulatory filings, hiring additional employees and investing in other product development opportunities while development expenditure on MosaiQ reduces. As of March 31, 2021, we had available cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $111.7 million and $9.0 million of restricted cash held as part of the arrangements relating to our Secured Notes and the lease of our property in Eysins, Switzerland. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including: our progress in developing and commercializing MosaiQ and the cost required to complete development, obtain regulatory approvals and complete our manufacturing scale up; our ability to pursue successful alternatives for commercializing MosaiQ in the patient market; our ability to manufacture and sell our conventional reagent products, including the costs and timing of further expansion of our sales and marketing efforts; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy, our business and our development timeline for MosaiQ; our ability to recoup the remaining approximately $35 million of funds invested in two funds that have suspended redemptions; our ability to collect our accounts receivable; our ability to generate cash from operations; any acquisition of businesses or technologies that we may undertake; and our ability to penetrate our existing market and new markets. On May 26, 2021, we issued and sold $95.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes in a private offering to institutional investors. The Convertible Notes are guaranteed by our material subsidiaries. The Convertible Notes are our unsecured, senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness. The Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at an initial conversion rate of 176.3668 ordinary shares per $1,000.00 principal amount of Convertible Notes, subject to adjustment. We have the right to redeem the Convertible Notes in certain circumstances. On or prior to June 2, 2021, we may issue up to an additional $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes in one or more subsequent offerings. For further information about the Convertible Notes, please see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 27, 2021. We currently expect that the additional net cash generated from the Convertible Notes issuance combined with our existing available cash and short-term investment balances are adequate to meet our forecasted cash requirements for the next twelve months. We expect to fund our operations in the near-term, including the ongoing development of MosaiQ through successful field trial completion, achievement of required regulatory authorizations and commercialization from a combination of funding sources. These expected funding sources include the use of existing available cash and short-term investment balances, the sale of rights and other assets, and the issuance of new equity or debt. - 57 - Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates We have prepared our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and related disclosures at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could therefore differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report, we believe the following accounting policies to be critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. Revenue recognition and accounts receivable Revenue is recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Product revenue is recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control of a product to a customer, which is generally at the time of delivery at an amount based on the transaction price. Customers have no right of return except in the case of damaged or ineffective goods and we have not experienced any significant returns of our products. We also earn revenue from the provision of development services to a small number of OEM customers. These development service contracts are reviewed individually to determine the nature of the performance obligations and the associated transaction prices. In recent years, our product development revenues have been commensurate with achieving milestones specified in the respective development agreements relating to those products. These milestones may include the approval of new products by the European or U.S. regulatory authorities, which are not within our control. While there can be no assurance that this will continue to be the case, the nature of the milestones has been such that they effectively represent completion of our performance obligations under a particular part of a development program. Should we fail to achieve these milestones, we are not entitled under the terms of the development agreements to any compensation related to the work undertaken to date. As a result, we typically fully recognize milestone-related revenues as the contractual milestones are achieved. Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from OEM customers, hospitals, donor testing laboratories, and distributors. Accounts receivable are reported net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts, which we also refer to as doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts represents a reserve for estimated losses resulting from our inability to collect amounts due from our customers. Direct sales, where we may make many low value sales to a large number of customers, represents a larger risk of doubtful accounts, as opposed to OEM customer sales consisting primarily of a small number of well established businesses with whom we have a long trading history. The collectability of our trade receivables balances is regularly evaluated based on a combination of factors such as the aging profile of our receivables, past history with our customers, changes in customer payment patterns, customer credit-worthiness and any other relevant factors. Based on these assessments, we adjust the reserve for doubtful accounts recorded in our financial statements. Inventories We record inventories at the lower of cost (at standard costs, approximating average costs) or market (net realizable value), net of reserves. We record adjustments to inventory based upon historic usage, expected future demand and shelf life of the products held in inventory. We also calculate our inventory value based on the standard cost of each product. This approach requires us to analyze variances arising in the production process to determine whether they reflect part of the normal cost of production, and should therefore be reflected as inventory value, or whether they are a period cost and should thus not be included in inventory. Income taxes We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires, among other things, that deferred income taxes be provided for temporary differences between the tax basis of our assets and liabilities and their financial statement reported amounts. In addition, deferred tax assets are recorded for the future benefit of utilizing NOLs and research and development credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. - 58 - We follow the accounting guidance for uncertainties in income taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording uncertain tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return in the financial statements. Additionally, the guidance also prescribes the derecognition, classification, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions. We accrue for the estimated amount of taxes for uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not that we would be required to pay such additional taxes. An uncertain tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. We did not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax positions, and there were no such interest or penalties recognized during the year ended March 31, 2021. Stock compensation expense Stock compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense in the income statement over the vesting period of the award. The calculation of the stock compensation expense is sensitive to the fair value of the underlying ordinary shares. The fair value of option awards at the grant date is calculated using the Black-Scholes model or other valuation models, which use a number of assumptions to determine the fair value. Details of the assumptions used are set out in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report. Defined Benefit Pension Obligations We account for the pension obligations of our Swiss subsidiary as a defined benefit plan under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715 Compensation – Retirement Benefits, or ASC 715. This requires that an actuarial valuation be performed to determine the funded status of the pension arrangements. The actuarial valuation is based on a number of assumptions including the expected return on plan assets, withdrawal and mortality rates, discount rate, and rate of increase in employee compensation levels. Assumptions are determined based on our data and appropriate market indicators, and are evaluated each year as of the plans’ measurement date. Should any of these assumptions change, they would have an effect on net periodic pension costs and the unfunded benefit obligation. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets reflects the average rate of earnings expected on the funds invested, or to be invested, to provide for the benefits included in the projected benefit obligations. In determining the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, we consider the relative weighting of plan assets, the historical performance of total plan assets and individual asset classes and economic and other indicators of future performance. The discount rate reflects the rate we would have to pay to purchase high-quality investments that would provide cash sufficient to settle our current pension obligations. A 25-basis point change in the discount rate changes the projected benefit obligation by approximately $1.1 million for our plan. Royalty Liability The royalty rights agreements entered into in connection with the issuances of our Secured Notes and the amendment of the related indenture are treated as sales of future revenues that meet the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 470 “Debt” to be treated as debt. The royalty rights agreements are individually amortized under the effective interest rate method. The Company recognizes interest expense over the estimated term of the royalty rights agreements. Estimating the future cash outflows under the royalty rights agreements requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions about future sales of MosaiQ products. These estimates of the magnitude and timing of MosaiQ sales are subject to significant variability due to the current status of development of MosaiQ products, and thus are subject to significant uncertainty. Therefore, the estimates are likely to change as we gain experience of marketing MosaiQ, which may result in future adjustments to the accretion of the interest expense and the amortized cost based carrying value of the royalty liability associated with the royalty rights agreements. Valuation and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets to be held and used, including property, plant, and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets or asset group may not be recoverable. Factors we consider important that could trigger an impairment review include, but are not limited to, the following: significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; - 59 - significant negative industry or economic trends; or significant changes or developments in strategy or operations that negatively affect the utilization of our long-lived assets. Given the status of the project the valuation of the property, plant and equipment associated with MosaiQ are reviewed each quarter. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. In the event that such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the carrying amount of the assets, the assets are written down to their fair values. Estimating the future cash outflows for this purpose requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions about future sales of MosaiQ products. These estimates of the magnitude and timing of MosaiQ sales are subject to significant variability due to the current status of development of MosaiQ products, and thus are subject to significant uncertainty. We measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value for these assets. Valuation of short-term investments On March 12, 2021, we announced that two funds managed by CSAM in which we had invested an aggregate of approximately $110.35 million had suspended redemptions. The investments into these funds were made in accordance with our investment policy of making individual investments with a minimum of an A rating from a leading credit-rating agency. Each fund holds short-term credit obligations of various obligors. According to a press release issued by CSAM, redemptions in the funds were suspended because “certain part of the Subfunds’ assets is currently subject to considerable uncertainties with respect to their accurate valuation.” CSAM subsequently began a liquidation of the funds. Pursuant to the liquidation, we have already received cash distributions of approximately $75.6 million. Based on information provided by Credit Suisse, we expect to receive further cash distributions from the funds in the next several months; however, there can be no assurance as to the timing or amount of any such distributions. While Credit Suisse has advised that the credit assets held by the funds are covered by insurance that potentially will be available to cover losses the funds would incur if any of the obligors on the funds’ credit assets were to default, we do not know if the funds will incur losses (net of insurance) on the credit assets held by the funds. On April 22, 2021, Credit Suisse published its FY 2021 Q1 press release with commentary related to the Credit Suisse Supply Chain Finance Investment Grade Fund and the Credit Suisse (Lux) Supply Chain Finance Fund. Notably, Credit Suisse indicated that investors in the funds should assume losses will be incurred. As of March 31, 2021, we evaluated the investments in the CSAM managed funds for impairment and determined that our investment in one of the funds was impaired. We recognized an impairment expense of $2.3 million at March 31, 2021 related to this fund. We view the liquidation of the supply chain finance funds as a fluid situation with a significant amount of valuation uncertainty. We will closely monitor the situation and in the event that new information is released that provides valuation clarity will evaluate the accounting implications accordingly. We believe, and has advised Credit Suisse, that any losses on the supply chain funds should be borne by Credit Suisse. We will pursue all available options to recoup the full amount of its investment in the supply chain funds prior to liquidation. Leases At the inception of an arrangement, we determine whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. A lease is a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time, in exchange for consideration. We determine if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time. We assess throughout the period of use whether we have both of the following: (1) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits for use of the identified asset, and (2) the right to direct the use of the identified asset. This determination is reassessed if the terms of the contract are changed. We also review the terms of the lease in accordance with Accounting Standards Update, or “ASU”, 2016-02, “Leases” in order to determine whether the lease concerned is a finance or an operating lease. Most leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets, lease liabilities and, if applicable, long-term lease liabilities. We have elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of one year or less. For finance leases, an asset is included within property and equipment and a lease liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments is included in current or long-term liabilities. Interest expense is recorded over the life of the lease at a constant rate. - 60 - Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The operating lease right-of-use assets also include any lease payments made prior to the commencement date and any initial direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, we utilize our incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The incremental borrowing rate is determined at lease commencement, or as of April 1, 2019 for operating leases existing upon the adoption of ASU 2016-02. The incremental borrowing rate is subsequently reassessed upon modification to the lease arrangement. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In accordance with the guidance in ASU 2016-02, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g., land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g., common area maintenance, maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g., property taxes, insurance, etc.). Although separation of lease and non-lease components is required, certain practical expedients are available. In particular, entities may elect a practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components and instead account for each lease component and the related non-lease component together as a single component. We have elected to account for the lease and non-lease components of each of its operating leases as a single lease component and allocate all of the contract consideration to the lease component only. The lease component results in an operating lease right-of-use asset being recorded on the balance sheet and amortized on a straight-line basis as lease expense. The finance lease assets and operating lease right-of-use assets are assessed for impairment in accordance with our accounting policy for long-lived assets.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Index to financial statements Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2021 and 2020 Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit) for the years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Page 62 64 65 66 67 68 - 61 - Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Quotient Limited Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Quotient Limited (the Company) as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at March 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2021, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Restatement of 2021 Financial Statements As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and 2020 and for the year ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 have been restated to correct a misstatement. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. Volume and timing assumptions supporting the recoverability of MosaiQ assets Description of matter As explained in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is in the process of developing MosaiQ, a new technological platform for blood testing and disease screening. As at March 31, 2021, $22.1 million of property, plant & equipment and $6.8 million of inventory are capitalized in relation to MosaiQ with the recoverability of these assets primarily dependent upon the forecasted volume and timing of future sales. The Company evaluates and determines the recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amount of the property, plant & equipment and inventory assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated - 62 - How we addressed the matter in our audit by these assets. Auditing the forecasted volume and timing of future sales assumptions used in the recoverability assessment involves a high degree of subjectivity due to the continuing development of the technology, timing of regulatory approvals and subsequent customer adoption of the novel MosaiQ technology. Our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the Company’s sales forecast and assessing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used. We inspected whether the sales forecast is consistent with long term plans approved by the board of directors, inspected the timeliness of regulatory submissions and obtained correspondence with management’s head of regulatory affairs. We also enquired of Research & Development management regarding their latest assessments on regulatory approval process. We compared the forecasted volume and timing of future sales assumptions used by management by comparing them against available information including third party market analysis obtained by the Company. We performed a sensitivity analysis over these assumptions to evaluate the changes in the future undiscounted cash flows that would result from changes in the assumptions. We assessed the adequacy of the company’s disclosures. Impairment of Short-Term Investments Description of matter As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, at March 31, 2021 the Company had invested $53.3 million in two funds managed by Credit Suisse Asset Management (‘CSAM’) which had suspended redemptions. How we addressed the matter in our audit As at March 31, 2021, the Company’s investment in these two funds is valued at cost less impairment, with a total value of $51 million, net of a $2.3 million impairment charge. Subsequent distributions of $18.5 million have been received during April 2021. At May 31, 2021, $34.7 million remains outstanding, the ultimate recoverability of which cannot be determined until the funds are liquidated. Auditing the Company’s valuation of the impairment of the two CSAM funds as at March 31, 2021, was challenging as, based on publications released by CSAM, certain parts of the funds’ assets are subject to considerable valuation uncertainties and therefore involved a high degree of subjectivity. To test the impairment of the Company’s two CSAM funds our procedures included, among others, involving internal valuation specialists to assist in our evaluation of the Company’s valuation approach, reviewing CSAM’s publicly available publications used by management in determining their valuation, inspecting available third-party evidence, and testing the mathematical accuracy of the Company’s valuation calculations. We evaluated subsequent events and other information and compared it to management’s year- end impairment valuation. We verified the redemptions received subsequent to year end. We assessed the adequacy of the related disclosures provided in the consolidated financial statements. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2007.

67 - NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in thousands of U.S. Dollars — except for share data and per share data, unless otherwise stated) Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization and Business The principal activity of Quotient Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Group” and or the “Company”) is the development, manufacture and sale of products for the global transfusion diagnostics market. Products manufactured by the Group are sold to hospitals, blood banking operations and other diagnostics companies worldwide. The Company has incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations in each year since it commenced operations in 2007 and had an accumulated deficit of $599.9 million at March 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021, the Company had available cash holdings and short-term investments of $111.7 million. These holdings include $53.2 million of investments held in two short-term investment funds with CSAM that are currently in the process of being liquidated. The remaining short-term investments to be liquidated are subject to significant valuation uncertainty. The Company has recognized an impairment of $2.3 million related to one of the funds invested with CSAM during March of 2021. During April of 2021, payments from these funds of $18.5 million were received. While the timing and amount of further payments are not clear at present (see Note 5), the Company believes that it will receive the remaining distributions over the year. On May 26, 2021, the Company completed a private offering of $95 million aggregate principal amount of new 4.75% Convertible Notes due 2026 to certain investors. The additional net cash generated from the Convertible Notes issuance combined with the Company’s existing available cash and short-term investment balances are adequate to meet its forecasted cash requirements for the next twelve months and accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. Thereafter, the Company expects to fund its operations in the near-term, including the ongoing development of MosaiQ through successful field trial completion, achievement of required regulatory authorizations and commercialization from a combination of funding sources. These expected funding sources include the use of existing available cash and short-term investment balances, the sale of rights and other assets, and the issuance of new equity and debt. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances. All gains and losses realized from foreign currency transactions denominated in currencies other than the foreign subsidiary’s functional currency are included in foreign currency exchange gain (loss) as part of other income or expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Adjustments resulting from translating the financial statements of all foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit). The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated from their respective functional currencies into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenue and expense amounts are translated at rates approximating the weighted average rates during the period. The translation effects of inter-company loans designated as long term net investments in subsidiaries are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a strain of novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19, a global pandemic. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the Company’s business, operations and financial results will depend on future developments and numerous evolving factors, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict. As of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, the Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require the Company to further update estimates, judgments or revise the carrying value of any assets or liabilities. These estimates may change, as new events occur and additional information is obtained, and are recognized in the consolidated financial statements as soon as they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates and any such differences may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. - 68 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company’s valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on the following three levels of inputs: Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. See Note 5, “Fair Value Measurements,” for information and related disclosures regarding our fair value measurements. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2021 and 2020, all cash and cash equivalents comprised cash balances and highly liquid investments having an original maturity of three months or less held with the banks used by the Company and its subsidiaries. Restricted cash comprised $8.7 million at both March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 , held in a cash reserve account pursuant to the indenture governing the Company’s 12% Senior Secured Notes (the “Secured Notes”) and $324 and $317, respectively, held in a restricted account as security for the property rental obligations of the Company’s Swiss subsidiary. Short-term Investments Short-term investments comprise investments in money-market funds which are valued daily and have minimal notice periods for withdrawals. The money market funds are invested in a portfolio of holdings and the creditworthiness requirement for individual investment holdings is a minimum of an A rating from a leading credit-rating agency. The Company records the value of its investments in the funds based on the quoted value of the funds at the balance sheet date (Note 5) . Unrealized gains or losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are transferred to the statement of comprehensive loss when they are realized. Trade Accounts Receivable Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are not interest bearing. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potentially uncollectible trade receivables. Movements in the allowance for doubtful accounts are recorded as general and administrative expenses. The Company reviews its trade receivables to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In addition, the Company maintains an allowance for all other receivables not included in the specific reserve by applying specific rates of projected uncollectible receivables to the various aging categories. In determining these percentages, the Company analyzes its historical collection experience, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms. The allowance for doubtful accounts at March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $48 and $111, respectively. Concentration of Credit Risks and Other Uncertainties The carrying amounts for financial instruments consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Derivative instruments, consisting of foreign exchange contracts and short-term investments are stated at their estimated fair values, based on quoted market prices for the same or similar instruments. The counterparties to the foreign exchange contracts consist of large financial institutions of high credit standing. The short-term investments are invested in funds which is invested in a portfolio of holdings and the creditworthiness requirement for individual investment holdings is a minimum of an A rating from a leading credit-rating agency. On March 12, 2021, the Company announced that two funds managed by CSAM in which the Company had invested an aggregate of approximately $110.35 million had suspended redemptions. The investments into these funds were made in accordance with the Company’s investment policy of making individual investments with a minimum of an A rating from a leading credit-rating agency. - 69 - Each fund holds short-term credit obligations of various obligors. According to a press release issued by CSAM, redemptions in the funds were suspended because “certain part of the Subfunds’ assets is currently subject to considerable uncertainties with respect to their accurate valuation.” CSAM subsequently began a liquidation of the funds. Pursuant to the liquidation, the Company has already received cash distributions of approximately $75.6 million. Based on information provided by Credit Suisse, the Company expects to receive further cash distributions from the funds in the next several months; however, there can be no assurance as to the timing or amount of any such distributions. While Credit Suisse has advised that the credit assets held by the funds are covered by insurance that potentially will be available to cover losses the funds would incur if any of the obligors on the funds’ credit assets were to default, the Company does not know if the funds will incur losses (net of insurance) on the credit assets held by the funds. Additionally, on April 22, 2021, Credit Suisse published its FY 2021 Q1 press release with commentary related to the supply chain financing funds. Notably, Credit Suisse indicated that the investors in the funds should assume losses will be incurred. The Company evaluated the investments in the CSAM managed funds for impairment, in accordance with ASC 321-10-35, Investments – Equity Securities, and determined that its investment in one of the funds was impaired. The Company recognized an impairment expense of $2.3 million during March of 2021 related to this fund. The Company views the liquidation of the supply chain finance funds as a fluid situation with a significant amount of valuation uncertainty. The Company will closely monitor the situation and in the event that new information is released that provides valuation clarity, it will evaluate the accounting implications accordingly. The Company believes, and has advised Credit Suisse, that any losses on the supply chain funds should be borne by Credit Suisse. The Company will pursue all available options to recoup the full amount of its investment in the supply chain funds prior to liquidation. The Company’s main financial institutions for banking operation held all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020. The Company’s accounts receivable are derived from net revenue to customers and distributors located in the United States and other countries. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. The Company provides reserves for potential credit losses but has not experienced significant losses to date. There was one customer whose accounts receivable balance represented 10% or more of total accounts receivable, net, as of March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020. This customer represented 74% and 70% of the accounts receivable balances, as of March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, respectively. The Company currently sells products through its direct sales force and through third-party distributors. There was one direct customer that accounted for 10% or more of total product sales for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. This customer represented 60%, 61% and 60% of total product sales for the fiscal years March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of standard cost or market, net of reserves. Cost is determined at standard cost, approximating average cost. Allocation of fixed production overheads to conversion costs is based on normal capacity of production. Abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and spoilage are expensed as incurred and not included in overhead. Variances between standard cost and actual cost, arising in the production process, are analyzed to determine whether they reflect part of the normal cost of production, and should therefore be reflected as inventory value, or whether they are a period cost and should thus not be included in inventory. Inventory reserves are recorded based upon historic usage, expected future demand and shelf life of the products held in inventory. No stock-based compensation cost was included in inventory as of March 31, 2021 and 2020. Property and Equipment Property, equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows: Land—not depreciated. Plant, machinery and equipment—4 to 25 years. Leasehold improvements—the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which are not considered improvements and do not extend the useful life of property and equipment, are expensed as incurred. - 70 - Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, no impairment losses have been recorded. Intangible Assets Intangible assets related to product licenses are recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets related to technology and other intangible assets acquired in acquisitions are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition, less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, on a straight-line basis as follows: Customer relationships—5 years Brands associated with acquired cell lines—40 years Product licenses—10 years Other intangibles—7 years The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment and conducts the impairment review when events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may be impaired by estimating the future undiscounted cash flows to be derived from an asset to assess whether or not a potential impairment exists. If the carrying value exceeds the Company’s estimate of future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment value is calculated as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the Company’s estimate of its fair market value. Events or circumstances which could trigger an impairment review include a significant adverse change in the business climate, an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, significant changes in the Company’s use of acquired assets, the Company’s overall business strategy, or significant negative industry or economic trends. No impairment losses have been recorded in any of the years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 or 2019. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Product revenue is recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control of a product to a customer, which is generally at the time of delivery at an amount based on the transaction price. Customers have no right of return except in the case of damaged or ineffective goods and the Company has not experienced any significant returns of its products. Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and included in cost of product sales. Revenue is also earned from the provision of development services to a small number of original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customers. These development service contracts are reviewed individually to determine the nature of the performance obligations and the associated transaction prices. In recent years, product development revenues have been commensurate with achieving milestones specified in the respective development agreements relating to those products. These milestones may include the approval of new products by the European or U.S. regulatory authorities, which are not within the Company’s control. While there can be no assurance that this will continue to be the case, the milestones have been such that they effectively represent completion of the Company’s performance obligations under a particular part of a development program. Should the Company fail to achieve these milestones the Company would not be entitled under the terms of the development agreements to any compensation for the work undertaken to date. As a result, the milestone-related revenues have been recognized as the contractual milestones are achieved. Pursuant to an Umbrella Supply Agreement with Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc. (“Ortho”), the Company executed a product attachment relating to the development of a range of rare antisera products. During the year ended March 31, 2020, the Company recognized milestones totaling $1,050 related to the approval by the FDA of an application submitted during the year ended March 31, 2019, and a further FDA submission and approval related to the use of the products on another of Ortho’s automation platforms. There are no further milestone revenues due under this agreement. In January 2015, the Company’s subsidiaries, Quotient Suisse and QBD (QS-IP) Limited, entered into a supply and distribution agreement with Ortho related to the commercialization and distribution of certain MosaiQ products (the "Prior Ortho Agreement"), which the Company terminated effective as of December 27, 2019. Under the terms of the Prior Ortho Agreement, the Company was entitled to receive milestone payments, totaling in aggregate $59.0 million, upon CE-mark and FDA approval, as well as upon the first commercial sale of the relevant MosaiQ products by Ortho within the European Union, United States and within any country outside of these two regions. In November 2019, Ortho initiated an arbitration proceeding as result of the Company's termination of the Prior Ortho Agreement. See Note 7, "Commitments and Contingencies—Ortho Arbitration and Settlement," for details. - 71 - On September 4, 2020, the Company and Ortho entered into a binding letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company and Ortho agreed: • • • to confirm the termination of the Prior Ortho Agreement and various related contracts; to end the parties’ disputes regarding the Prior Ortho Agreement by executing mutual releases and terminating their pending arbitration proceeding related to the Prior Ortho Agreement (see Note 7); and to negotiate in good faith, and use their respective reasonable best efforts to execute, a new distribution agreement (the “New Distribution Agreement”) based on the terms set forth in the Letter Agreement, but if for any reason no such definitive agreement is reached, the Letter Agreement will govern the parties’ respective rights and obligations as a binding contract. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Ortho made an initial, non-refundable milestone payment of $7.5 million to the Company on the date of the Letter Agreement. In the Letter Agreement, the Company and Ortho have agreed that Ortho has the right to distribute, market and sell a dedicated MosaiQ microarray optimized for the patient transfusion diagnostics market (the “MosaiQ IH3 Microarray”) in the European Territory (defined as the European Economic Area plus the United Kingdom and Switzerland) and in the United States, solely for use in testing the immuno-hematological profile of the blood of medical patients in the course of their care or treatment. Ortho’s rights in the two territories each are for one ten-year term commencing on the receipt of specified regulatory approvals in the respective territory. The Company retains the right to distribute, market and sell the immunohematology Microarrays for use in blood donor testing worldwide and in the patient testing market outside of the European Territory and the United States. Ortho’s rights in respect of the MosaiQ IH3 Microarray are exclusive provided it satisfies annual minimum purchase volume requirements in each territory. Ortho also has the non-exclusive right to sell and distribute MosaiQ instruments in the United States and the European Territory for use in testing the immuno-hematological profile of blood of medical patients in the course of their care or treatment. Ortho is required to purchase the MosaiQ IH3 Microarrays, and the instruments, controls and reagents required for their use, only from the Company at specified prices. In addition to the initial $7.5 million milestone payment, Ortho is required to make up to another $60 million of additional milestone payments upon achievement of certain regulatory milestones and commercial sales benchmarks, including up to $25 million upon the achievement by Ortho of certain cumulative gross revenue hurdles. The Company has concluded that the initial $7.5 million milestone represents a payment in respect of development work undertaken to date in respect of the MosaiQ IH3 Microarray and accordingly has recognized the revenue in the year ended March 31, 2021. The Company has also concluded that each of the remaining milestones under the Letter Agreement require significant levels of development work to be undertaken and there is no certainty at the start of the projects that the development work will be successful, these milestones are substantive and, accordingly, the revenue will be recognized when the milestones are achieved. In the year ended March 31, 2021, revenue recognized from performance obligations related to prior periods was not material. At March 31, 2021 revenues expected to be recognized in future periods related to remaining performance obligations under the Ortho Letter Agreement were as described above. There were no other material revenues to be recognized in future periods related to remaining performance obligations at March 31, 2021. Research and Development Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred for company-sponsored and collaborative research and development activities. These costs include direct and research-related overhead expenses. Other than materials assessed as having alternative future uses and which are recognized as prepaid expenses, the Company expenses research and development costs, including products manufactured for research and development purposes and the expenses for research under collaborative agreements, as such costs are incurred. Where government grants are available for the sponsorship of such research, the grant receipt is included as a credit against the related expense. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. - 72 - In determining fair value of the stock-based compensation payments, the Company uses the Black–Scholes model and a single option award approach for share options, which requires the input of subjective assumptions. These assumptions include: the fair value of the underlying share, estimating the length of time employees will retain their awards before exercising them (expected term), the estimated volatility of the Company’s ordinary share price over the expected term (expected volatility), risk-free interest rate (interest rate), expected dividends and the number of shares subject to awards that will ultimately not complete their vesting requirements (forfeitures). Where modifications are made to vesting conditions, the Company considers the nature of the change and accounts for the change in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. The Company determined that during the year ended March 31, 2021 certain modifications were type I in nature and certain modifications were type III in nature. In respect of the type I modifications the incremental fair value over the original grant-date fair value was measured at the modification date and was expensed over the remaining vesting period of the awards concerned. In respect of the type III modifications, the original compensation expense related to these awards was reversed and the value of the awards was re-measured at the date of the change and was expensed over the vesting period of the awards concerned. The Company determined that certain modifications made during the year ended March 31, 2020 were type III in nature. Share Warrants As of March 31, 2021, the Company had one class of warrants to purchase ordinary shares outstanding which comprised warrants that were issued in December 2013 and August 2015 in connection with the establishment and subsequent increase of the Company’s then existing secured term loan facility. None of these warrants contain any obligation to transfer value and, as such, the issuance of these warrants has been recorded in additional paid in capital as part of shareholders’ (deficit) equity. Leases At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. A lease is a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time, in exchange for consideration. The Company determines if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time. The Company assesses throughout the period of use whether the Company has both of the following: (1) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits for use of the identified asset, and (2) the right to direct the use of the identified asset. This determination is reassessed if the terms of the contract are changed. The Company also reviews the terms of the lease in accordance with Accounting Standard Update, or ASU, 2016-02 in order to determine whether the lease concerned is a finance or an operating lease. Most leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets, lease liabilities and, if applicable, long-term lease liabilities. The Company has elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of one year or less. For finance leases, an asset is included within property and equipment and a lease liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments is included in current or long-term liabilities. Interest expense is recorded over the life of the lease at a constant rate. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The operating lease right-of-use assets also include any lease payments made prior to the commencement date and any initial direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The incremental borrowing rate is determined at lease commencement, or as of April 1, 2019 for operating leases existing upon adoption of ASU 2016-02. The incremental borrowing rate is subsequently reassessed upon modification to the lease arrangement. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In accordance with the guidance in ASU 2016-02, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g., land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g., common area maintenance, maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g., property taxes, insurance, etc.). Although separation of lease and non-lease components is required, certain practical expedients are available. In particular, entities may elect a practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components and instead account for each lease component and the related non-lease component together as a single component. The Company has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components of each of its operating leases as a single lease component and allocate all of the contract consideration to the lease component only. The lease component results in an operating lease right-of-use asset being recorded on the balance sheet and amortized on a straight-line basis as lease expense. The finance lease assets and operating lease right-of-use assets are assessed for impairment in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy for long-lived assets. - 73 - Derivative Financial Instruments In the normal course of business, the Company’s financial position is routinely subjected to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company’s policy is to mitigate the effect of these exchange rate fluctuations on certain foreign currency denominated business exposures. The Company has a policy that allows the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on forecasted revenue denominated in foreign currencies. The Company carries derivative financial instruments (derivatives) on the balance sheet at their fair values. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. The Company does not believe that it is exposed to more than a nominal amount of credit risk in its foreign currency hedges, as counterparties are large, global and well-capitalized financial institutions. To hedge foreign currency risks, the Company uses foreign currency exchange forward contracts, where possible and prudent. These forward contracts are valued using standard valuation formulas with assumptions about future foreign currency exchange rates derived from existing exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors. The Company considers its most current forecast in determining the level of foreign currency denominated revenue to hedge as cash flow hedges. The Company combines these forecasts with historical trends to establish the portion of its expected volume to be hedged. The revenue and expenses are hedged and designated as cash flow hedges to protect the Company from exposures to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. If the underlying forecasted transaction does not occur, or it becomes probable that it will not occur, the related hedge gains and losses on the cash flow hedge are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss at that time. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements, but have not been reflected in taxable income. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. Therefore, the Company provides a valuation allowance to the extent that is more likely than not that it will generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis and considers various factors, including, but not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit and changes in facts or circumstances related to the tax position. Pension Obligation The Company maintains a pension plan covering employees in Switzerland pursuant to the requirements of Swiss pension law. Certain aspects of the plan require that it be accounted for as a defined benefit plan pursuant to ASC 715 Compensation – Retirement Benefits. The Company recognizes an asset for the plan’s overfunded status or a liability for the plan’s underfunded status in its Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additionally, the Company measures the plan’s assets and obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the year and recognizes the change in the funded status within ‘‘Accumulated other comprehensive loss’’. The Company uses an actuarial valuation to determine its pension benefit costs and credits. The amounts calculated depend on a variety of key assumptions, including discount rates and expected return on plan assets. Details of the assumptions used to determine the net funded status are set out in Note 12. The Company’s pension plan assets are assigned to their respective levels in the fair value hierarchy in accordance with the valuation principles described in the ‘‘Fair Value of Financial Instruments’’ section above. Termination and Transition Charges Termination charges are recognized as a result of actions to restructure operations. Transition charges are recognized as a result of the retirement of senior employees. Such charges are recognized upon meeting certain criteria, including the finalization of committed plans or agreements and discussions with the impacted employees. Loss Contingencies Loss contingencies from legal proceedings and claims may occur from contractual and other related matters. Accruals are recognized when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Gain contingencies are not recognized until realized. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. - 74 - Debt Issuance Costs and Royalty Rights The Company follows the requirements of Accounting Standards Update 2015-03, Interest — Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) — Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability rather than as an asset. On October 14, 2016, June 29, 2018 and May 15, 2019, the Company issued Secured Notes, and, on December 4, 2018, the Company amended the indenture governing the Secured Notes, which amendments became effective on December 18, 2018. In connection with these issuances and this amendment, the Company entered into royalty rights agreements with the subscribers and the consenting note holders, as applicable, which, as of March 31, 2021, provided for an aggregate amount of royalties payable thereunder of 3.4% of net sales of MosaiQ instruments and consumables made in the donor testing market in the United States and the European Union. All of these royalty rights agreements are treated as sales of future revenues that meet the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 470 “Debt” (“ASC 470”) to be treated as debt. These royalty rights agreements are accounted for separately as freestanding financial instruments. Consideration received for the Secured Notes and royalty rights agreements was allocated to each component on a relative fair value basis. The difference between the relative fair value of the royalty rights agreements at issuance and the principle on the Secured Notes is accounted for as a debt discount and amortized through interest expense over the life of the Secured Notes. The royalty rights agreements are individually amortized under the effective interest rate method. The Company recognizes interest expense over the estimated term of the royalty rights agreements. Adoption of New Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses”. The standard, including subsequently issued amendments, requires a financial asset measured on an amortized cost basis, such as accounts receivable, to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on April 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans -General (Subtopic 715- 20)” or ASU 2018-14. ASU 2018-14 removes the requirements to disclose the amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) expected to be recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year and other disclosure requirements. In addition, the ASU adds the requirement to disclose an explanation for any significant gains and losses related to changes in the benefit obligation for the period. The ASU is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020 and will be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-14 on April 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. - 75 - Note 2. Restatement of Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements Restatement In connection with the preparation of the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021, management of the Company identified an error related to the accounting of the Senior Secured Notes and royalty rights agreements originating in October 2016, August 2018, and June 2019. Specifically, management of the Company determined that it did not identify the correct accounting treatment at the time of entering into these transactions, and accounted for these instruments on a combined basis instead of treating these as separate freestanding financial instruments. As a result, the Company under recognized interest expense between 2016 and March 31, 2021 in the amount of $7.1 million. The Company has restated its financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 to correct the error. There is no net impact on the Company’s total operating, financing, or investing cash flows given the non-cash nature of the adjustment. The restatement also includes corrections for other errors identified as immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, to our consolidated financial statements which includes the financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. Description of Misstatements (A) The Company historically accounted for its term debt and royalty rights agreements on a combined basis instead of separately recognizing them as standalone financial instruments. Over time, the subsequent accounting on a standalone basis differed from the combined accounting treatment and resulted in an increase to Interest expense, increase to long-term debt, and increase or decrease to foreign exchange gains/(losses) over the impacted periods. (B) Over recognition of depreciation expense related to specific property and equipment. The Company has recorded adjustments to recognize these amounts in the appropriate period(s). (C) Under-accrual for fringe benefits and taxes associated with employee compensation arrangements. The Company has recorded adjustments to recognize these amounts in the appropriate period(s). (D) Adjustment to recognize the foreign currency impact of certain immaterial monetary items within Other, net previously recognized in Foreign currency gain (loss) within other comprehensive income (loss). (E) The Company recognized an out of period adjustment for deferred tax assets related to certain research and development initiatives. (F) Correction of other immaterial errors. - 76 - As previously Reported Restatement Impacts Restatement Reference As Restated March 31, 2021 $ $ $ — — — — — — — 541 (B) — — — — 541 — 510 (C) 120 (F) — — — 630 7,123 (A) — — (672) (E) — — 7,081 — — — 1,467 (D) (A)(B)(C)(D)(E)(F) $ (8,007) (6,540) 541 45,673 65,999 5,323 22,011 4,870 143,876 9,024 39,071 22,011 619 255 4,956 219,812 4,659 12,343 14,009 24,167 3,446 835 59,459 145,059 20,907 445 1,152 6,896 21,475 255,393 — 540,813 38,116 (14,598) (599,912) (35,581) 219,812 $ ASSETS Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents Short-term investments Trade accounts receivable, net Inventories Prepaid expenses and other current assets Total current assets Restricted cash Property and equipment, net Operating lease right-of-use assets Intangible assets, net Deferred income taxes Other non-current assets Total assets $ LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT) Current liabilities: $ Accounts payable Accrued compensation and benefits Accrued expenses and other current liabilities Current portion of long-term debt Current portion of operating lease liability Current portion of finance lease obligation Total current liabilities Long-term debt, less current portion Operating lease liability, less current portion Finance lease obligation, less current portion Deferred income taxes Defined benefit pension plan obligation 7% Cumulative redeemable preference shares Total liabilities Commitments and contingencies Shareholders' equity (deficit): Ordinary shares (nil par value) 101,264,412 and 80,398,326 issued and outstanding at March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 respectively Additional paid in capital Accumulated other comprehensive loss Accumulated deficit Total shareholders' equity (deficit) Total liabilities and shareholders' equity (deficit) $ 45,673 $ 65,999 5,323 22,011 4,870 143,876 9,024 38,530 22,011 619 255 4,956 219,271 $ 4,659 $ 11,833 13,889 24,167 3,446 835 58,829 137,936 20,907 445 1,824 6,896 21,475 248,312 — 540,813 38,116 (16,065) (591,905) (29,041) 219,271 $ -

As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s long term debt, included $24,167 of principal payments due within 1 year which is classified as current within the balance sheet. - 88 - Secured Notes On October 14, 2016, the Company completed the private placement of up to $120 million aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes and entered into an indenture governing the Secured Notes with the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee and collateral agent. The Company issued $84 million aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes on October 14, 2016 and an additional $36 million aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes on June 29, 2018. On December 18, 2018, the Company also completed certain amendments to the indenture governing the Secured Notes. The amendments included an increase to the aggregate principal amount of Secured Notes that can be issued under the indenture from $120 million to up to $145 million following the European CE Marking of the Company’s initial MosaiQ IH Microarray. On April 30, 2019, the Company was notified that it had received the European CE Marking of the initial MosaiQ IH Microarray and, on May 15, 2019, the Company issued the additional $25 million of Secured Notes. The obligations of the Company under the indenture and the Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a secured basis by the guarantors, which include all the Company’s subsidiaries, and the indenture governing the Secured Notes contains customary events of default. The Company and its subsidiaries must also comply with certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a requirement to maintain six-months of interest in a cash reserve account maintained with the collateral agent. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, subject to certain conditions, or certain Asset Sales (each, as defined in the indenture), holders of the Secured Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Secured Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% or 100%, respectively, of the principal amount of the Secured Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. The Company paid $8.7 million of the total proceeds of the three issuances into the cash reserve account maintained with the collateral agent under the terms of the indenture, $1.5 million of which related to the third issuance on May 15, 2019. Following the April 15, 2021 repayment of the Secured Notes the balance held in the cash reserve account was reduced to $8.0 million. Interest on the Secured Notes accrues at a rate of 12% per annum and is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year commencing on April 15, 2017. On April 15, 2021, the Company made a $12.1 million principal payment on the Secured Notes. Additionally, principal payments are due on each April 15 and October 15 until April 15, 2024 pursuant to a fixed amortization schedule. The outstanding debt at March 31, 2021 falls due for repayment as follows: Within 1 year Between 1 and 2 years Between 2 and 3 years Between 3 and 4 years Between 4 and 5 years Total debt Royalty liability $ $ 24,167 42,291 48,334 30,208 — 145,000 In connection with the three issuances of the Secured Notes as well as the December 2018 amendment of the related indenture, the Company has entered into royalty rights agreements, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to pay 3.4% of the aggregate net sales of MosaiQ instruments and consumables made in the donor testing market in the United States and the European Union. The royalties will be payable beginning on the date that the Company or its affiliates makes its first sale of MosaiQ consumables in the donor testing market in the European Union or the United States and will end on the last day of the calendar quarter in which the eighth anniversary of the first sale date occurs. The royalty rights agreements are treated as sales of future revenues that meet the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 470 “Debt” to be treated as debt. The future cash outflows under the royalty rights agreements were estimated at $106.5 million at March 31, 2021 and $87.0 million at March 31, 2020. The royalty rights agreements are accounted for separately as freestanding financial instruments. Consideration received for the debt and royalty rights was allocated to each component on a relative fair value basis. The difference between the relative fair value of the royalty rights agreements and the principle on the Secured Notes is accounted for as debt discount and amortized through non-cash interest expense over the life of the Secured Notes. Estimating the future cash outflows under the royalty rights agreements requires the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions about future sales of MosaiQ products. These estimates of the magnitude and timing of MosaiQ sales are subject to significant variability due to the current status of development of MosaiQ products, and thus are subject to significant uncertainty. Therefore, the estimates are likely to change as the Company gains experience of marketing MosaiQ, which may result in future adjustments to the accretion of the interest expense and amortized cost based carrying value of the royalty liability. - 89 - Note 5. Fair Value Measurements Assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis The following table summarizes the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level, within the fair value hierarchy: Assets: Pension plan assets(1) Short-term investments(2) Foreign currency forward contracts(3) Total assets measured at fair value Assets: Pension plan assets(1) Short-term investments(2) Total assets measured at fair value Liabilities: Foreign currency forward contracts(3) Total liabilities measured at fair value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total March 31, 2021 — $ — — $ $ — 15,751 15,000 355 31,106 $ $ $ — — — — $ $ $ 15,751 15,000 355 31,106 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total March 31, 2020 — $ 116,871 $ 116,871 12,436 — 12,436 $ $ — — — $ $ 12,436 116,871 129,307 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total March 31, 2020 — $ $ — 227 227 $ $ — — $ $ 227 227 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ (1) (2) (3) The fair value of pension plan assets has been determined as the surrender value of the portfolio of active insured employees held within the AXA LLP Foundation Suisse Romande collective investment fund. The fair value of short-term investments has been determined based on the quoted value of the units held in the money market fund at the balance sheet date. The short-term investments as of March 31, 2021, relate to new investments made in a Treasury Money Market Fund. See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Short-term Investments”. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts has been determined by calculating the present value of future cash flows, estimated using market-based observable inputs including forward and spot exchange rates and interest rate curves obtained from third party market price quotations. On March 12, 2021, the Company announced that two funds managed by CSAM in which the Company had invested an aggregate of approximately $110.35 million had suspended redemptions. The investments into these funds were made in accordance with the Company’s investment policy of making individual investments with a minimum of an A rating from a leading credit-rating agency. Each fund holds short-term credit obligations of various obligors. According to a press release issued by CSAM, redemptions in the funds were suspended because “certain part of the Subfunds’ assets is currently subject to considerable uncertainties with respect to their accurate valuation.” CSAM subsequently began a liquidation of the funds. Pursuant to the liquidation, the Company has already received cash distributions of approximately $75.6 million. Based on information provided by Credit Suisse, the Company expects to receive further cash distributions from the funds in the next several months; however, there can be no assurance as to the timing or amount of any such distributions. Credit Suisse has advised that the credit assets held by the funds are covered by insurance that potentially will be available to cover losses the funds would incur if any of the obligors on the funds’ credit assets were to default. On April 22, 2021, Credit Suisse published its FY 2021 Q1 press release with commentary related to the supply chain financing funds. Notably, Credit Suisse indicated that the investors in the funds should assume losses will be incurred. For the year ended March 31, 2021, Credit Suisse’s decision to liquidate funds in which the Company held short-term investments served as a trigger to evaluate the investments for impairment. Accordingly, we performed a qualitative assessment for impairment. As a result of this assessment, Quotient determined that an impairment was required. The Credit Suisse linked short-term investment asset with a carrying value of $110.3 million was written down to its estimated fair value of $108.0 million, resulting in an impairment of $2.3 million. This impairment was included in Other, net within our consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the year ended March 31, 2021. The carrying value of the investments at March 31, 2021 was $51.0 million. - 90 - The Company views the liquidation of the supply chain finance funds as a fluid situation with a significant amount of valuation uncertainty. The Company will closely monitor the situation and in the event that new information is released that provides valuation clarity, it will evaluate the accounting implications accordingly. The Company believes, and has advised Credit Suisse, that any losses on the supply chain funds should be borne by Credit Suisse. The Company will pursue all available options to recoup the full amount of its investment in the supply chain funds prior to liquidation. The total unrealized gains on the short-term investments were $734, $1,881 and $1,127 in financial years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The amount of these unrealized gains reclassified to earnings were $1,632, $1,327 and $331 in the financial years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Note 6.

At the beginning of the year ended March 31, 2021, the Company reassessed the useful economic lives of equipment used in the production line at its facility in Eysins, Switzerland. Based on lower utilization rates than initially estimated, the remaining useful lives of the equipment was increased from 4 years to 6 years. The impact of these changes in remaining useful lives was to reduce the depreciation expenses for the year ended March 31, 2021 by $1,164. - 91 - Accrued compensation and benefits Accrued compensation and benefits consist of the following: Salary and related benefits Accrued vacation Accrued payroll taxes Accrued incentive payments Accrued termination and transition payments Total accrued compensation and benefits March 31, 2021 As Restated March 31, 2020 $ $ 666 $ 931 1,765 5,392 3,589 12,343 $ 635 521 1,200 3,700 1,154 7,210 In the year ended March 31, 2021 the Company incurred $3,825 in respect of transition arrangements with its new chief executive officer.

The fair values of these contracts in place at March 31, 2021, and similar contracts in place at March 31, 2020, amounted to assets of $355 and liabilities of $227 respectively. - 92 - The foreign currency forward contracts were entered into to mitigate the foreign exchange risk arising from the fluctuations in the value of U.S. dollar denominated transactions entered into by our UK subsidiary. These foreign currency forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges and are carried on the Company’s balance sheet at fair value with the effective portion of the contracts’ gains or losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently recognized in revenue/expense in the same period the hedged items are recognized . Ortho Arbitration and Settlement The Company’s subsidiaries, Quotient Suisse and QBD (QS-IP) Limited were party to the Prior Ortho Agreement with Ortho related to the commercialization and distribution of certain MosaiQ products. See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies— Revenue Recognition,” for information regarding the Prior Ortho Agreement. The Company and an affiliate of Ortho also entered into a subscription agreement pursuant to which the affiliate subscribed for newly issued ordinary shares of the Company and newly issued 7% cumulative redeemable preference shares, of no par value, of the Company for an aggregate subscription price of approximately $25 million. On November 27, 2019, the Company delivered a notice to Ortho that it had terminated the Prior Ortho Agreement, effective as of December 27, 2019. The Company did not realize any revenue under the Prior Ortho Agreement prior to its termination. On or about November 17, 2019, Ortho initiated an arbitration proceeding in which it sought a declaration that the Company did not have the right to terminate the Prior Ortho Agreement, specific performance of certain provisions of the Prior Ortho Agreement, and damages including in respect of the difference in amounts Ortho invested in the Company’s shares and their market value. The Company pursued counterclaims against Ortho, including that it had the right to terminate the Prior Ortho Agreement and damages that included the milestone payments due under the Prior Ortho Agreement (see Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Revenue Recognition," for details). In addition, on December 20, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with Ortho pursuant to which it agreed, while the arbitration was pending, not to grant commercialization rights in respect of products that overlapped with Ortho’s rights under the Prior Ortho Agreement without prior written notice to Ortho. On September 4, 2020, the Company and Ortho entered into the Letter Agreement, pursuant to which the Company and Ortho agreed to confirm the termination of the Prior Ortho Agreement and various related contracts and to end the parties’ disputes regarding the Prior Ortho Agreement by executing mutual releases and terminating their pending arbitration proceeding related to the Prior Ortho Agreement. The Company and Ortho also agreed to negotiate in good faith, and use their respective reasonable best efforts to execute, the New Distribution Agreement based on the terms set forth in the Letter Agreement, but if for any reason no such definitive agreement is reached, the Letter Agreement will govern the parties’ respective rights and obligations as a binding contract. See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Revenue Recognition," for further details regarding the commercial terms included in the Letter Agreement. Purchase obligations The Company has purchase obligations that are associated with agreements for purchases of goods or services. Management believes that cancellation of these contracts is unlikely and thus the Company expects to make future cash payments according to the contract terms. The following is a schedule by years of purchase obligations as of March 31, 2021: 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Thereafter Total minimum future purchase obligations $ $ 19,142 13,480 15,878 17,301 23,642 — 89,443 The Company is also party to certain royalty arrangements related to net sales of MosaiQ products. These include a low single digit royalty to TTP plc based on our net sales of certain MosaiQ products for 20 years from first commercialization, or for so long as the licensed intellectual property is protected by patent in the country of sale, and a low single digit royalty to Catalloid Products, Inc. on net sales of MosaiQ Microarrays that would be covered by that royalty agreement, for a period of 10 years post launch of that Microarray. - 93 - Note 8. Geographic Information The Company operates in one business segment. Revenues are attributed to countries based on the location of the Company’s channel partners as well as direct customers. The following table represents revenue attributed to countries based on the location of the customer: Revenue: United States France Japan Other foreign countries (1) Year ended March 31, 2021 2020 2019 $ $ 28,135 7,406 4,506 3,332 43,379 $ $ $ 17,831 7,105 4,333 3,387 32,656 $ 14,754 6,501 3,846 4,033 29,134 (1) No individual country represented more than 10% of the respective totals.

Ordinary and Preference Shares Ordinary shares The Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares consist of the following: Ordinary shares Total Shares Issued and Outstanding March 31, 2021 101,264,412 101,264,412 March 31, 2020 80,398,326 $ 80,398,326 $ Par value — — - 94 - On September 15, 2020, the Company completed a public offering of 20,294,117 newly issued ordinary shares at $4.25 per share which raised $86.3 million of gross proceeds before underwriting discounts and other offering expenses of $5.6 million. Preference shares The Company’s issued and outstanding preference shares consist of the following: 7% Cumulative Redeemable Preference shares Total Shares Issued and Outstanding Liquidation amount per share March 31, 2021 March 31, 2020 March 31, 2021 March 31, 2020 666,665 666,665 666,665 $ 666,665 32.21 $ 30.64 The 7% Cumulative Redeemable Preference shares were issued to Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics Finco S.Á.R.L., an affiliate of Ortho on January 29, 2015 at a subscription price of $22.50 per share. These preference shares are redeemable at the request of the shareholder on the “Redemption Trigger Date” which is currently the date of the eighth anniversary of the date of issue of the preference shares, but the Company may further extend the redemption date in one year increments up to the tenth anniversary of the date of issue. Because the 7% Cumulative Redeemable Preference shares are redeemable at the option of the shareholders, they are shown as a liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Note 10. Share-Based Compensation The Company records share-based compensation expense in respect of options and restricted share units (“RSUs”), issued under its share incentive plans and in respect of deferred shares issued to employees. Share-based compensation expense amounted to $4,984 in the year ended March 31, 2021, $4,467 in the year ended March 31, 2020 and $4,957 in the year ended March 31, 2019. Option Plans The 2012 Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) was designed in order to grant options on ordinary shares in the capital of the Company to certain of its directors and employees. The purpose of the Option Plan is to provide employees with an opportunity to participate directly in the growth of the value of the Company by receiving options for shares. Each option may be exercised for one ordinary share of the Company. The 2012 Option Plan was approved by the shareholders on February 16, 2012. The total number of shares in respect of which options may be granted under the 2012 Option Plan is limited at 839,509. Options that lapse or are forfeited are available to be granted again. Options generally vest over a period of three years but certain employees have shorter vesting periods. The contractual life of all options is 10 years. Options were not exercisable before the Company became a public company and all outstanding options become exercisable in the event of an acquisition of 75% or more of the share capital of the Company by a third party. No further awards will be granted under the 2012 Option Plan. The 2014 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by the directors and shareholders immediately prior to the Company’s initial public offering in April 2014. The 2014 Plan was designed to provide flexibility to attract and retain the services of qualified employees, officers, directors, consultants and other service providers upon whose judgment, initiative and efforts the successful conduct and development of the business depends, and to provide additional incentives to such persons to devote their effort and skill to the advancement and betterment of the Company, by providing them an opportunity to participate in the ownership of the Company and thereby have an interest in its success and increased value. - 95 - Under the 2014 Plan, 1,500,000 ordinary shares were initially reserved for issuance. This number is subject to adjustment in the event of a recapitalization, share split, share consolidation, reclassification, share dividend or other change in the Company’s capital structure and automatically increases annually on April 1 of each year. A resolution passed at the Annual Shareholder meeting held on October 29, 2020 amended this annual automatic increase to 0.75% of the number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding March 31, or such lesser number of shares as determined by the Board or the remuneration committee. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the plan was also increased by 750,000 as a result of a resolution passed at the Annual Shareholder meeting held on October 28, 2016, by 550,000 as a result of a resolution passed at the Annual Shareholder meeting held on October 31, 2018 and by a further 750,000 as a result of a resolution passed at the Annual Shareholder meeting held on October 29, 2020. The plan provides for the issuance of share options, restricted shares, RSUs (including multi-year performance based restricted share units or “MRSUs”) or share appreciation rights (“SARs”). The Company has only issued options, RSUs and MRSUs under the plan prior to March 31, 2021. To the extent that an award terminates, or expires for any reason, then any shares subject to the award may be used again for new grants. However, shares which are (i) not issued or delivered as a result of the net settlement of outstanding SARs or options; (ii) used to pay the exercise price related to outstanding options; (iii) used to pay withholding taxes related to outstanding options or SARs; or (iv) repurchased on the open market with the proceeds from an option exercise, will not be available for grant under the 2014 Plan. Share option activity The following table summarizes share option activity: Outstanding — March 31, 2018 Granted Exercised Forfeited Outstanding — March 31, 2019 Granted Exercised Forfeited Outstanding — March 31, 2020 Granted Exercised Forfeited Outstanding — March 31, 2021 Exercisable —March 31, 2021 Number of Share Options Weighted Average Outstanding Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Months) 2,096,283 $ 189,552 (253,066) (96,372) 1,936,397 $ 110,623 (103,264) (95,704) 1,848,052 $ 258,026 (147,264) (148,029) 1,810,785 $ 1,497,464 $ 7.79 6.59 5.14 12.69 7.77 8.44 4.77 12.53 7.73 5.38 1.18 10.76 7.69 8.11 84 120 — — 78 120 — — 70 120 — — 68 59 The following table summarizes the options granted in the year ended March 31, 2021 with their exercise prices, the fair value of ordinary shares as of the applicable grant date, and the intrinsic value, if any: Grant Date May 24, 2020 September 1, 2020 (1) October 29, 2020 October 31, 2020 Number of Options Granted Exercise Price Ordinary Shares Fair Value Per Share at Grant Date Per Share Intrinsic Value of Options 60,438 $ 45,922 81,666 70,000 7.69 $ 4.81 4.55 4.72 7.69 $ 4.81 4.55 4.72 4.96 3.07 2.93 3.05 (1) On September 1, 2020, in connection with the appointment of Dr Catherine Larue and Dr Isabelle Buckle to the Board of Directors, we granted each of Dr Larue and Dr Buckle 20,790 options to purchase ordinary shares at an exercise price of $4.81 per share. These grants, which were issued outside of our 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, were approved by our Board of Directors and the Remuneration Committee of our Board pursuant to the inducement grant exception under Nasdaq Rule - 96 - 5635(c)(4), as an inducement that is material to Dr Larue and Dr Buckle joining our Board. The options vest in three equal installments on each first, second and third anniversary of the grant date. The options have a term of ten years and will be forfeited if not exercised before the expiration of their term. In addition, in the event Dr Larue’s or Dr Buckle’s Board service is terminated, any options not vested shall be forfeited upon termination. Determining the fair value of share options The fair value of each grant of share options was determined by the Company using the Black-Scholes options pricing model. The total fair value of option awards in the years ended March 31, 2021, March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 amounted to $889, $588 and $676, respectively. Assumptions used in the option pricing models are discussed below. Each of these inputs is subjective and generally requires significant judgment to determine. Expected volatility. The expected volatility was based on the historical share volatility of the Company’s ordinary shares over a period equal to the expected terms of the options. Fair value of ordinary shares. Since the Company’s initial public offering in April 2014, the fair value of ordinary shares has been based on the share price of the Company’s shares on the Nasdaq Global Market immediately prior to the grant of the options concerned. Risk-Free Interest Rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the UK Government 10 year bond yield curve in effect at the time of grant prior to the initial public offering and 10 year U.S. Treasury Stock for awards from April 2014 onwards. Expected term. The expected term is determined after giving consideration to the contractual terms of the share-based awards, graded vesting schedules ranging from one to three years and expectations of future employee behavior as influenced by changes to the terms of its share-based awards. Expected dividend. According to the terms of the awards, the exercise price of the options is adjusted to take into account any dividends paid. As a result, dividends are not required as an input to the model, as these reductions in the share price are offset by a corresponding reduction in exercise price. A summary of the weighted-average assumptions applicable to the share options is as follows: Risk-free interest rate Expected lives (years) Volatility Dividend yield Grant date fair value (per share) Number granted RSU Activity A summary of the RSUs in issue at March 31, 2021 is as follows: RSUs subject to time based vesting RSUs subject to milestone based vesting Year ended March 31, 2021 2020 2019 0.77% 6 73.70% — 5.38 258,026 $ 1.84% 6 69.43% — 8.44 110,623 $ 3.08% 6 67.19% — 6.14 189,552 $ Number of RSUs Outstanding 783,759 118,650 Weighted Average Remaining Vesting Period (Months) 10 N/A Period in which the target must be achieved N/A N/A At March 31, 2021, 783,759 RSUs were subject to time based vesting and the weighted average remaining vesting period was 10 months. In addition, 118,650 RSUs were subject to vesting based on the achievement of various milestones relating to the development, approval and marketing of MosaiQ. - 97 - The fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares was $3.68 per share on March 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2021, total compensation cost related to share options and RSUs granted but not yet recognized was $4,608 net of estimated forfeitures. This cost will be amortized to expense over a weighted average remaining period of 18 months and will be adjusted for subsequent changes in estimated forfeitures. Note 11. Income Taxes The components of the provision for income taxes are as follows: Year ended March 31, Income tax (provision) benefit: Current - Federal Deferred - Federal 2021 As Restated $ 2019 2020 As Restated As Restated — — $ (30) (58) (30) (58) $ (126) $ (1,128) (1,254) $ $ The statutory standard corporate income tax rate of the Company in Jersey is 0%. Utilization of the net operating losses carried forward against the profits of the subsidiary in the year ended March 31, 2019 resulted in a reduction in the deferred tax asset of $30, with a corresponding provision for income taxes of the same amount. In connection with the sale and leaseback transaction of the Company’s conventional reagents manufacturing facility, near Edinburgh, Scotland (the “Alan Robb Campus (“ARC”) facility”) that was completed in March 2018, the Company has agreed to transfer tax allowances related to certain other property, plant and equipment to the purchaser of the facility. An election to effect the transfer of these allowances to the purchaser has been made, but due to uncertainty regarding whether the election will be effective, the tax effect of the transfer of the allowances had not previously been recorded in the financial statements. The Company has determined that during the year ended March 31, 2021 it is now more likely than not that this election will be effective and accordingly a net deferred tax expense of $1,200 and an equivalent deferred tax liability have been recorded, including associated adjustments to valuation allowances. A reconciliation of the income tax expense at the statutory rate to the provision for income taxes is as follows: Year ended March 31, 2020 2021 As Restated As Restated — $ $ (1,200) 2,362 2,255 — $ — 2019 As Restated — 14 5,287 (2,416) (1,254) $ (2,313) (58) $ (5,331) (30) $ Income tax expense at statutory rate Impact of tax uncertainties Foreign tax rate differential (Increase) decrease in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets Provision for income tax - 98 - Significant components of deferred tax assets are as follows: March 31, 2021 March 31, 2020 Provisions and reserves Operating lease liability Fixed asset basis difference Research and development Net operating loss carry forwards Gross deferred tax assets Fixed asset basis difference Operating lease right-of-use assets Gross deferred tax liabilities Net deferred tax asset Valuation allowance Net deferred taxes $ As Restated As Restated 1,315 $ 3,409 — — 19,526 24,250 (90) (3,409) (3,499) 20,751 (20,514) 237 1,022 4,100 — 672 22,628 28,422 (2,289) (4,100) (6,389) 22,033 (22,930) (897) $ $ The balance sheet classification of net deferred tax assets is as follows: Net noncurrent deferred tax assets Net noncurrent deferred tax liabilities Total March 31, 2021 March 31, 2020 As Restated As Restated 237 $ — $ 237 $ 255 $ (1,152) $ (897) $ The Company maintains a valuation allowance on net operating losses and other deferred tax assets in jurisdictions for which it does not believe it is more-likely-than-not to realize those deferred tax assets based upon all available positive and negative evidence, including historical operating performance, carryback periods, reversal of taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and earnings expectations. As of March 31, 2021, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $286,595 which will be available to offset future taxable income. If not used, losses with a tax effect of approximately $22,354 will expire between 2022 and 2028. The remaining portion of the carry forward losses arose in jurisdictions where losses do not expire. During the fiscal year the United Kingdom government announced an increase to the rate of corporate income tax to 25%, effective from April 1, 2023. These changes were not substantively enacted at the balance sheet date and is therefore not reflected in the measurement of deferred tax for the year ended March 31, 2021. The Company has estimated that if the United Kingdom deferred tax balances at March 31, 2021 that are expected to unwind after April 1, 2023 were remeasured at 25%, this would result in an increase in the net deferred tax liability and an equivalent deferred tax expense of $576. The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s uncertain tax positions (excluding interest and penalties and related tax attributes): Balance at beginning of year Increases related to current year tax positions Increases related to prior years tax positions Balance at end of year 2021 2020 2019 As Restated As Restated As Restated $ $ 1,216 — — 1,216 $ $ 603 $ 613 — 1,216 $ 617 (14) — 603 As of March 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 the Company has an unrecognized benefit of $1,216, $1,216, and $603 respectively, that if recognized would be recorded as a component of tax expense. The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits include exposures related to positions taken on all jurisdictions’ income tax returns. The Company has interest expense carryforward from March 31, 2017 that potentially would be disqualified as interest expense in the amount of $613. Additionally, the Company has reassessed its transfer pricing policies in certain jurisdictions from 2015 to 2017, the impact of which is $603. In the normal course of business, the Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Such examinations may result in future tax and - 99 - interest assessments by these taxing authorities and the Company has accrued a liability when it believes it is more likely than not that the tax position claimed on tax returns will not be sustained by the taxing authorities on the technical merits of the position. Changes in the recognition of the liability are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company files separate company income tax returns in its domestic and foreign jurisdictions. All necessary income tax filings in all jurisdictions have been completed for all years up to and including March 31, 2020 and there are no ongoing tax examinations in any jurisdiction. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2021, March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Company had no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company does not currently anticipate that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will result in material changes to its financial position within the next 12 months. No tax charge arose on any element of other comprehensive loss. Note 12. Pension Plans The Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Company in an independently administered fund. The pension cost charge represents the contribution payable by the Company to the fund during the year. Defined contribution pension costs during the years ended March 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 amounted to $581, $963 and $750, respectively. In addition, the Company’s Swiss subsidiary is affiliated to the collective foundation of AXA LPP Foundation Suisse Romande. Funding is granted by means of defined saving contributions on individual retirement assets implementing a guaranteed interest and a fixed conversion rate for old age pensions of the retirement asset. In Switzerland, pension plans are financed by contributions of both, employees and employer. Contributions are defined by the plan regulations and cannot be decreased without amending the plan regulations. The risks of disability and death before retirement are covered by AXA insurance. The assets are pooled for all affiliated companies; the investment of assets is done by the governing bodies of the collective foundation or by mandated parties. The pension arrangements are based on a contract of affiliation between the Company’s Swiss subsidiary and the AXA pension foundation, which can be terminated by either party. In the event of a termination, the Company’s Swiss subsidiary would have an obligation to find alternative pension arrangements for its employees. Because there is no guarantee that the Swiss employee pension arrangements would be continued under the same conditions, there is a risk, albeit remote, that a pension obligation may fall on the Company’s Swiss subsidiary. These circumstances require that the Swiss employee pension arrangements be treated as a defined benefit plan under ASC 715 Compensation – Retirement Benefits. Accordingly, an actuarial valuation of the pension obligation has been performed. At March 31, 2021 and 2020, the accumulated pension obligation amounted to $22,648 and $18,789, respectively, as compared with plan assets of $15,751 and $12,436, respectively. Therefore, the net funded status was an obligation of $6,897 and $6,353, as of March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 respectively, which were recorded as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The following provides a reconciliation of the benefit obligations, the plan assets and the funded status. Year ended March 31, 2021 March 31, 2020 As Restated As Restated $ $ 18,789 $ 2,272 2,704 126 (2,207) — 648 316 22,648 $ 17,784 2,003 2,180 131 (2,841) 836 (1,915) 611 18,789 Pension benefit obligation, beginning of year Service cost Contributions paid by plan participants Interest cost Benefits paid Prior service cost Actuarial loss / (gain) Foreign currency translation Pension benefit obligation, end of year - 100 - The actuarial losses on the projected benefit obligation as at March 31, 2021 result in part from changes in the assumptions compared to those adopted at March 31, 2020. There was a loss due to decrease in the discount rate assumption, which was offset by a gain due to changing the base mortality tables from BVG2015 to BVG2020 tables. A further loss due to experience resulted in an overall net actuarial loss to March 31, 2021. The experience loss can be attributed to the membership movements during the financial year.

Plan assets comprise the surrender value of the portfolio of active insured scheme participants. The expected return on plan assets was determined after consideration of current and historical levels of return and discussions with AXA. The discount rate is based on bond yields at March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 of high quality corporate bonds taking into account the duration of the liabilities. The net pension costs for the year are based on the assumptions adopted at the start of each financial year and comprise: March 31, 2021 Year ended March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019 Employer service cost Interest cost Expected return on plan assets Amortization of prior service credit Amortization of net loss Net pension cost - 101 - As Restated As Restated 2,003 $ $ 131 (130) (23) 216 2,197 $ 2,272 $ 126 (243) 58 — 2,213 $ $ 1,574 153 (131) (14) 154 1,736 The provision for pension benefit obligation recognized in other comprehensive income comprises: Net actuarial (gain) / loss Amortization of prior service credit Amortization of net loss Year ended As Restated As Restated March 31, 2021 March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019 $ $ (389) $ (58) — (447) $ (2,016) $ 23 (216) (2,209) $ 1,027 14 (154) 887 The cumulative amounts recognized in other comprehensive income were $3,035 and $3,482 at March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 respectively. This represented a net loss of $2,431 and $2,819 at March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 respectively and a prior service cost of $605 at March 31, 2021 and $663 at March 31, 2020.

Note 13. Net Loss Per Share In accordance with ASC 260 Earnings Per Share, basic earnings available to ordinary shareholders per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings available to ordinary shareholders per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period, plus potential ordinary shares considered outstanding during the period, as long as the inclusion of such shares is not anti-dilutive. Potential ordinary shares consist of the incremental ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of share options (using the treasury shares method), RSUs and warrants to acquire ordinary shares. The following table sets forth the computation of basic loss per ordinary share. Diluted earnings per share figures are not applicable due to losses.

Lease Commitments The Company has operating lease commitments for real estate and certain equipment in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland and Switzerland. There are no sublease agreements in place. The Company has finance lease commitments for equipment in the United Kingdom and Switzerland. The Company leases an 87,200 square foot conventional reagents manufacturing facility, the ARC facility, with integrated offices and laboratories, in Edinburgh, Scotland. This lease commenced in March 2018, following completion of a sale and leaseback transaction, and expires in September 2052. Rent is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, the lease required the Company to provide a rent deposit of £3.6 million, which amounted to $5.0 million at March 31, 2021 and $4.5 million at March 31, 2020, and is included within other non-current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. In March 2015, the Company signed a five-year lease agreement for its corporate headquarters and MosaiQ manufacturing facility in Eysins, Switzerland. This lease was extended for a further five-year period to March 14, 2025. The Company also leases office space for commercial and development activities under one to three-year lease agreements in Newtown PA and Chapel Hill NC. The operating lease commitments relating to equipment are not material. The finance lease commitments relate to specialized equipment required for manufacturing operations in both Edinburgh, Scotland and Eysins, Switzerland. Many of the Company’s leases contain options to renew and extend lease terms and options to terminate leases early. Reflected in the right-of-use asset and lease liability on the Company’s balance sheet are the periods provided by renewal and extension options that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, as well as the periods provided by termination options that the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise. The Company does not have any existing lease agreements with variable lease components. In calculating the present value of future lease payments, the Company has elected to utilize its incremental borrowing rate based on the remaining lease term at the date of adoption. Incremental borrowing rates are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company has elected to account for each lease component and its associated non-lease component as a single lease component and has allocated all the contract consideration across the lease component only. There are no material non-lease components. As of March 31, 2021, an operating lease right-of-use asset of $22,011 and an operating lease liability of $24,354 (including a current portion of $3,446) were reflected on the consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2020, an operating lease right-of-use asset of $21,493 and an operating lease liability of $22,947 (including a current portion of $3,033) were reflected on the consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had entered into finance leases for the purchase of plant and equipment that had net book values of $1,384. An associated finance lease liability of $1,280 (including a current portion of $835) was reflected on the consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had entered into finance leases for the purchase of plant and equipment that had net book values of $2,126. An associated finance lease liability of $1,715 (including a current portion of $598) was reflected on the consolidated balance sheet. - 103 - The elements of lease expense were as follows: Operating lease cost Finance lease cost Amortization of right-of-use asset Interest on lease liabilities Short-term lease cost Total lease cost Other information related to leases was as follows: Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities Operating leases - operating cash flows Finance leases - financing cash flows Finance leases - operating cash flows Non-cash leases activity Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new finance lease liabilities Weighted average remaining lease terms (in years) Operating leases Finance leases Weighted average discount rate Operating leases Finance leases Year ended March 31, 2021 2020 $ 4,414 $ 3,694 998 129 62 5,603 $ 832 119 69 4,714 Year ended March 31, 2021 2020 3,793 $ 633 $ 129 $ 3,043 524 119 332 $ 5,160 130 $ 969 $ $ $ $ $ $ As of March 31, 2021 As of March 31, 2020 29.5 1.6 10.9% 9.1% 30 2.3 10.8% 4.5% Future lease payments required under non-cancellable operating leases in effect as of March 31, 2021 were as follows: 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Thereafter Total lease payments Less : imputed interest Total operating lease liabilities March 31, 2021 March 31, 2020 $ $ $ 3,819 $ 3,295 3,285 3,334 2,237 71,347 87,317 $ (62,963) 24,354 $ 3,335 3,319 3,050 3,055 3,105 66,138 82,002 (59,055) 22,947 - 104 - Future lease payments required under finance leases in effect as of March 31, 2021 were as follows: 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Total lease payments Less : imputed interest Total finance lease liabilities March 31, 2021 March 31, 2020 $ $ 935 $ 422 42 12 — 1,411 (131) 1,280 $ 720 838 349 7 — 1,914 (199) 1,715 15.

Restatement of Previously Issued Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements In lieu of filing amended quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, the following tables represent our restated unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended December 31, 2020, September 30, 2020, and June 30, 2020 during the annual year ended March 31, 2021. See Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements, for additional information. Following the restated consolidated financial statement tables, we have presented a reconciliation from our prior periods, as previously reported, to the restated values. The values as previously reported were derived from our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the interim periods ended December 31, 2020, September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020. Description of Misstatements (A) The Company historically accounted for its term debt and royalty rights agreements on a combined basis instead of separately recognizing them as standalone financial instruments. Over time, the subsequent accounting on a standalone basis differed from the combined accounting treatment and resulted in an increase to Interest expense, increase to long-term debt, and increase or decrease to foreign exchange gains/(losses) over the impacted periods. (B) Over recognition of depreciation expense related to specific property and equipment. The Company has recorded adjustments to recognize these amounts in the appropriate period(s). (C) Under-accrual for fringe benefits and taxes associated with employee compensation arrangements. The Company has recorded adjustments to recognize these amounts in the appropriate period(s). (D) Adjustment to recognize the foreign currency impact of certain immaterial monetary items within Other, net previously recognized in Foreign currency gain (loss) within other comprehensive income (loss). (E) The Company recognized an out of period adjustment for deferred tax assets related to certain research and development initiatives. (F) Correction of other immaterial errors. (G) As previously disclosed, the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020 incorrectly classified $12.1 million of indebtedness as non-current liabilities instead of as current liabilities. -

126 - Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure There have been no changes in or disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure matters in the last fiscal year. Item 9A. Controls and procedures (a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of March 31, 2021. At the time of the original filing on Form 10-K on June 3, 2021, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer had concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2021. Subsequent to the evaluation made in connection with the original filing on Form 10-K, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have re-evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures in connection with the restatement of our consolidated financial statements that resulted from management’s identification of an accounting error related to our Senior Secured Notes and royalty rights agreements. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2021, due to the existence of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. (b) Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 Framework). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2021 due to the material weaknesses in the operation of our internal control over the historical accounting for Senior Secured notes and royalty rights agreements described below. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Based on its evaluation in accordance with the 2013 Framework, management identified a material weakness in the operation of our internal control related to the historical accounting of the Senior Secured Notes and royalty rights agreements originating in October 2016, August 2018, and June 2019. Specifically, management of the Company determined that it did not identify the correct accounting treatment at the time of entering into these transactions and accounted for these instruments on a combined basis instead of treating these as separate freestanding financial instruments This material weakness resulted in a material misstatement of interest expense for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. This Annual Report on Form 10-K/A does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting pursuant to an exemption for non-accelerated filers from the internal control audit requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. (c) Remediation Plan for Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting: To remediate the material weakness identified above, we have implemented additional controls and procedures, which include but are not limited to: • increased involvement of external accounting specialists to assist and review complex, non-routine financing transactions entered into after March 31, 2021 • management review (with the assistance of external accounting advisors) of the accounting treatment of all historical debt arrangements under US GAAP. - 127 - Based on the foregoing process and remediation measures, management believes that the above mentioned control deficiency will be remediated, but the material weakness cannot be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. (d) Changes in internal control over financial reporting Other than disclosed below, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fourth quarter of the year ended March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. (e) Remediation of Previously Reported Material Weakness As previously disclosed under “Item 4. Controls and Procedures” in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, management identified a material weakness in the design of our internal control over the classification of indebtedness and the consistency of our primary financial statements with the underlying note disclosures. This material weakness also existed at June 30, 2020. A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2), or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by employees in the normal course of their work. Management concluded at September 30, 2020 that we did not have adequate supervision and review controls over the classification of indebtedness and the consistency of our primary financial statements with the underlying note disclosures. This material weakness resulted in $12,083 thousand of indebtedness being classified as non-current liabilities instead of current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020, while the correct maturity analysis was presented within the related note disclosure. This error had no impact on the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, or condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, and this error was corrected prior to the issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. As a result, management concluded that, as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework 2013 issued by COSO. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, we remediated the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described above. In order to remediate the material weakness, we automated compilation of relevant captions of the primary financial statements from the detailed underlying accounting records and strengthened overall disclosure review controls through additional formal review processes. Given the remedial measures, testing of applicable controls and the determination that controls are designed and operating effectively, management has concluded that the material weakness previously identified at September 30, 2020, has been remediated as of March 31, 2021.
