Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $162.9 million compared with $138.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of 17 percent. On a constant currency basis, revenue increased 18 percent compared with the same period in the prior year.ⁱ

Operating loss improved to $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared with an operating loss of $25.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Net loss was $12.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared with a net loss of $18.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Cash and cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities at June 30, 2016 were $80.9 million excluding the fair value of the company's investment in a marketable security of $12.7 million, compared with $76.8 million at December 31, 2015 excluding the fair value of the company's investment in a marketable security of $18.1 million.

2016 Financial Outlook

The company is raising the low end of both revenue and test guidance for the full-year ending December 31, 2016:

• Raising total revenue to between $325 and $335 million (formerly $320 to $335 million); and
• Raising Oncotype DX tests delivered range to between 118,500 and 121,000 (formerly 117,500 to 121,000); and
• Maintaining net loss guidance between $12 and $18 million at the mid-point of revenue guidance, excluding gains of the company's investment in a marketable security expected to offset costs associated with the Epic Sciences collaboration, or basic net loss per share of between $0.37 and $0.55.

Recent Business Highlights

Oncotype DX Commercial Progress

• Established additional private coverage arrangements for the Oncotype DX Genomic Prostate Score™, bringing the total number of prostate cancer covered U.S. lives to more than 60 million.
• Launched an enhanced prostate cancer report to reflect an important new meta-analysis recently published in Urology that combined the patient-specific data from two Oncotype DX validation studies to create more precise risk estimates for high stage, high grade, and adverse pathology associated with the test results.
• The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) published its latest quality standard guidelines recommending the use of the Oncotype DX test in eligible patients with early-stage breast cancer.
• Established NHS reimbursement for the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score in Northern Ireland and Scotland.
• Launched Oncotype SEQ Liquid Select, the first non-invasive liquid biopsy test that the company will deliver through its Oncotype IQ Genomic Intelligence Platform. Oncotype SEQ is a blood-based test that uses next-generation sequencing to identify and assess actionable genomic alterations in a panel of 17 select genes to inform the treatment of stage IV solid tumors, including lung, breast, colon, melanoma, ovarian, and gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
• Entered into an exclusive agreement with Epic Sciences, Inc. to commercialize its novel AR-V7 liquid biopsy test in the United States through Genomic Health's world-class commercial channel. The blood-based test detects the V7 variant of the androgen receptor protein (AR-V7) in the nucleus of circulating tumor cells (CTC) - information that can help guide treatment selection in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The test will be performed by Epic Sciences at its centralized, CLIA-certified laboratory in San Diego, California.

Presentations and Publications

• Received acceptance to present eight abstracts at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2016 Congress in October including results from the Oncotype SEQ liquid biopsy analytical validation study.
• Presented results from seven Oncotype DX studies at the 2016 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting. Results included four new analyses from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Registry with more than 44,600 breast cancer patients. The SEER analyses reconfirmed through prospective outcomes data that the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score result is an accurate predictor of five-year survival in patients with node-positive and node-negative disease in contemporary "real-world" clinical practice and revealed important disparities in the utilization of the test as well as patient outcomes.
• Nature Partner Journals Breast Cancer published five-year outcomes results from the NCI SEER Registry that demonstrated node-negative and node-positive patients with low Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score^® results, the vast majority treated without chemotherapy, had excellent breast cancer survival.
• The Journal of Clinical Oncology, the official journal of ASCO, published results from a large study confirming the ability of the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score results, in combination with quantitative estrogen-receptor expression, to accurately predict the risk of late distant recurrence up to 15 years in patients with early-stage, hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. These findings suggest that Oncotype DX can help identify which patients are most likely to benefit from extended hormonal treatment.
• The Journal of Clinical Oncology also published findings from a separate Oncotype DX study that evaluated the ability of the Breast Recurrence Score result to provide information on breast cancer progression and survival in newly diagnosed stage IV breast cancer patients.
• Results of a European meta-analysis of prospective decision-impact studies performed in France, Germany, Spain and the UK were accepted for publication in the European Journal of Cancer. The findings showed that the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score test had a significant and consistent impact on adjuvant treatment decisions despite differences in therapeutic traditions, with an average change rate of 32 percent, resulting in an overall reduction in the recommended use of chemotherapy.
• Results from the large SUNRISE clinical validation study of the Oncotype DX Colon Recurrence Score test were published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. Conducted in Japan, this study confirms that Oncotype DX accurately predicts recurrence risk in Japanese patients with stage II and III colon cancer, providing information beyond conventional factors.
