Key Highlights from ASHG 2025:<\/p>\n
A total of nine studies, presented as either oral sessions or posters, demonstrated the effectiveness of OGM in detecting novel SVs that can be missed by traditional cytogenetic and sequencing techniques. These findings highlight the significant value OGM can have in addressing complex genetic conditions.<\/p>\n

Words such as \u201cability,\u201d \u201ccan,\u201d \u201cpotential,\u201d and similar expressions (as well as other words or expressions referencing future events, conditions or circumstances) convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes and are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements describe future expectations, plans, results, or strategies, among other things, and in this release include, but are not limited to, statements the ability of OGM to have an expanding role in genetic disease research; the ability of OGM to detect novel SVs missed traditional cytogenetic and sequencing techniques; the value of OGM in addressing complex genetic conditions; and ability of OGM to help researchers worldwide gain deeper insights into complex genetic conditions. Each of these forward-looking statements involves risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, investors and prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as they involve inherent risk and uncertainty (both general and specific) and should note that they are provided as a general guide only and should not be relied on as an indication or guarantee of future performance. Actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected or implied in these forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause such a difference include the risks and uncertainties associated with: the failure of OGM to have an expanding role in genetic disease research; the failure of OGM to detect novel SVs missed traditional cytogenetic and sequencing techniques; the failure of OGM to provide value in addressing complex genetic conditions; the failure of OGM to help researchers worldwide gain deeper insights into complex genetic conditions; the failure of OGM be useful in the applications described in the publications referenced in this press release; future publications that differ or contradict the findings of the publication referenced in this press release; our ability to obtain sufficient financing to fund our business plans and commercialization efforts and our ability to continue as a \u201cgoing concern,\u201d which requires us to manage costs and obtain significant additional financing to fund our business plans and commercialization efforts; the risk that if we fail to obtain additional financing we may seek relief under applicable insolvency laws; the impact of adverse geopolitical and macroeconomic events, such as the ongoing conflicts between Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East and uncertain market conditions, including inflation, tariffs, and supply chain disruptions, on our business and the global economy; general market conditions; changes in the competitive landscape and the introduction of competitive technologies or improvements to existing technologies; changes in our strategic and commercial plans; the ability of medical and research institutions to obtain funding to support adoption or continued use of our technologies; and the risks and uncertainties associated with our business and financial condition in general, including the risks and uncertainties including those described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (\u201cSEC\u201d), including, without limitation, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in other filings subsequently made by us with the SEC. All forward-looking statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date on which they were made and are based on management\u2019s assumptions and estimates as of such date. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of the receipt of new information, the occurrence of future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.<\/p>\n CONTACTS
