In connection with Investor Day, the Company issued a press release that, among other things, discusses its business strategy, reiterates its previously issued guidance for full-year 2025 and provides its long-term outlook beyond 2025. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated into this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K by reference. The Investor Day presentation materials that will be used by members of the Company’s leadership team, which include information regarding the matters discussed by the Company at Investor Day and in the press release, have been posted on the “Events and Presentations” page of the Company’s investor relations website.
The information in the preceding paragraphs, as well as Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. It may only be incorporated by reference into another filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if such subsequent filing specifically references this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Risks and uncertainties that may affect the future results of the company include, but are not limited to, adverse results from pending or future government investigations, lawsuits or private actions, the competitive environment, the complexity of billing, reimbursement and revenue recognition for clinical laboratory testing, changes in government regulations, changing relationships with customers, payers, suppliers or strategic partners, acquisitions and other factors discussed in the Company's most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and in any of the Company's subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, including those discussed in the "Business," "Risk Factors," "Cautionary Factors that May Affect Future Results" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of those reports.
