NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(1) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of SEQUENOM, Inc. (“SEQUENOM” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

 

The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2003 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Certain amounts in the December 31, 2003 balance sheet have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

 

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and disclosures thereto included in SEQUENOM’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

(2) Segment information

 

We report our financial results in two business segments, SEQUENOM Genetic Systems and SEQUENOM Pharmaceuticals.

 

Segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Revenues from external customers

   $ 4,798     $ 336     $ 5,134     $ 6,530     $ 913     $ 7,443  

Loss from operations

   $ (4,569 )   $ (5,758 )   $ (10,327 )   $ (3,424 )   $ (5,847 )   $ (9,271 )

 

We have no intersegment revenues. Corporate costs are allocated to segments based on each segment’s estimated portion of total operational expenses. We do not currently segregate assets by segment because a significant portion of our total assets are cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities which we do not assign to our two operating segments.

 

(3) Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, requires reporting and displaying comprehensive income (loss) and its components, which, for us, includes net loss and unrealized gains and losses on investments and foreign currency translation gains and losses. In

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

accordance with SFAS No. 130, the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income (loss) is disclosed as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. A summary of our comprehensive loss is as follows (dollars in thousands):

 

     Three months ended
March 31,


 
     2004

    2003

 

Comprehensive loss:

                

Net loss applicable to common stock

   $ (9,885 )   $ (8,545 )

Change in unrealized gains (losses)

     (169 )     (36 )
    


 


Comprehensive loss

   $ (10,054 )   $ (8,581 )
    


 


 

(4) Net Loss Per Share

 

In accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including shares held in escrow relating to the acquisition of Axiom Biotechnologies, Inc. in 2002, during the three months ended March 31, 2003. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares are comprised of incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, and were excluded from historical diluted loss per share because of their anti-dilutive effect.

 

(5) Stock-Based Compensation

 

We account for our stock-based awards to employees in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (“APB 25”) and the related Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation—An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25. We have adopted the disclosure-only alternative of SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS 123”).

 

If compensation cost for stock-based awards had been determined consistent with the fair value method prescribed in SFAS No. 123, our net loss would have been the following pro forma amounts:
