    Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

    Purchase and Sale Agreement

    On December 20, 2025, Inform Diagnostics, Inc. (the “Buyer”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Fulgent Genetics, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “PSA”) with Bako Pathology LP, Bako Pathology Holdings Corp., BPA Holding Corp. (the “Seller”), Dermatopathology Experts, LLC (the “Target”), and Fulgent Therapeutics, LLC (solely for purposes of Section 11.16 (and Article XI as it relates to Section 11.16) of the PSA), pursuant to which Seller, among other things, agreed to sell and Buyer agreed to purchase, all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Target, for a base purchase price of $12.5 million in cash, subject to certain customary price adjustments.

    The PSA contains customary representations and warranties by the parties. The PSA also contains certain covenants made by the parties, including non-solicitation covenants for a period of three years commencing on the closing of the transactions contemplated by the PSA (the “PSA Closing”) and restrictions on the operation of Target’s business between the date of the PSA and the PSA Closing.

    The obligations of the parties to complete the transaction are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions set forth in the PSA, including, but not limited to, the satisfaction of certain healthcare regulatory approval requirements and the consummation of the APA Closing (as defined below).

    Buyer and Seller are permitted to terminate the PSA under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, (i) by mutual agreement of Buyer and Seller, (ii) by either Buyer or Seller, in the event that the PSA Closing has not occurred by the date that is 210 days after the date of the PSA, or (iii) by Buyer or Seller, if the APA (as defined below) is validly terminated in accordance with its terms.

    The PSA is not intended to provide any other factual information about Buyer, Seller, Target, or their respective owners, subsidiaries and affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the PSA (i) were made solely for purposes of the PSA and as of the date of the PSA, (ii) were solely for the benefit of the parties to the PSA, (iii) may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties to the PSA, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk among the parties to the PSA instead of establishing these matters as facts, and (iv) may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to securityholders of the Company. Investors and securityholders of the Company should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or Buyer. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the PSA, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures by the Company.

    Asset Purchase Agreement

    On December 20, 2025, Buyer entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) with Bako Pathology LP (“Sellers’ Representative”), Bako Pathology Holdings Corp., BPA Holding Corp., Bakotic Pathology Associates, L.L.C., Podceuticals L.L.C., GBRL Consulting, LLC (collectively with Sellers’ Representative, the “Sellers”), and Fulgent Therapeutics, LLC (solely for purposes of Section 11.16 (and Article XI as it relates to Section 11.16) of the APA), pursuant to which Sellers, among other things, agreed to sell and Buyer agreed to purchase and assume, substantially all of the assets and certain specified liabilities related to Sellers’ business in dermatopathology and podiatric pathology and molecular diagnostic services and therapeutic products, for a base purchase price of $43.0 million in cash, subject to certain customary price adjustments.

    The APA contains customary representations and warranties by the parties. The APA also contains certain covenants made by the parties, including non-solicitation covenants for a period of three years commencing on the closing of the transactions contemplated by the APA (the “APA Closing”) and restrictions on the operation of Sellers’ businesses between the date of the APA and the APA Closing.

    The obligations of the parties to complete the transaction are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions set forth in the APA, including, but not limited to, the satisfaction of certain healthcare regulatory approval requirements and consummation of the PSA Closing.

    Buyer and Seller are permitted under certain circumstances to terminate the APA, including, but not limited to, (i) by mutual agreement of Buyer and Sellers’ Representative, (ii) by either Buyer or Sellers’ Representative, in the event that the APA Closing has not occurred by the date that is 210 days after the date of the APA, or (iii) by Buyer or Sellers’ Representative, if the PSA is validly terminated in accordance with its terms.

    The APA is not intended to provide any other factual information about Buyer, Sellers, or their respective owners, subsidiaries and affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the APA (i) were made solely for purposes of the APA and as of the date of the APA, (ii) were solely for the benefit of the parties to the APA, (iii) may be subject to qualifications and limitations


    agreed upon by the parties to the APA, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk among the parties to the APA instead of establishing these matters as facts, and (iv) may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to securityholders of the Company. Investors and securityholders of the Company should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or Buyer. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the APA, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures by the Company.

    The parties currently expect to close the transactions contemplated by the PSA and APA in the first half of 2026.

    The foregoing descriptions of the PSA, APA and related transactions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the PSA and APA, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and are incorporated herein by reference.
