(AGM 2024)
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
2023 was a tremendous year for SOPHiA GENETICS.
We continued building the future of data-driven medicine, and in doing so, creating long-term value for our customers and our shareholders.
In many ways, 2023 was the year of AI. It was
the first time that the general public gained access to powerful AI models and learned what they can do. As the Co-founder and leader
of an AI-driven precision medicine company, this movement has been a fulfilling experience for me.
Since SOPHiA GENETICS’ inception in 2011,
we have invested over US$400 million to build some of the most advanced AI capabilities in the healthcare sector. We recruited a team
of more than 200 of the top data scientists and engineers in the world who contribute daily to building and developing our Platform, SOPHiA
DDM™. Today, SOPHiA DDM™ is widely recognized by healthcare professionals and researchers across the globe for its world-class
analytical performance and by some of our partners as the leading AI Platform in all of the healthcare space.
However, at SOPHiA GENETICS, we do not look at
innovation as the development of new technologies. At SOPHiA GENETICS, we look at innovation as the adoption of those technologies
in the market. And in that spirit, I would like to highlight the progress we made driving adoption of SOPHiA DDM™ throughout 2023.
Let me start by acknowledging the strongest evidence
of our success. We grew revenue 31% year-over-year to US$62.4 million by continuing to drive widespread adoption of our Platform. At the
same time, we improved gross margins and reduced operating costs to achieve a 36% decline in cash burn. In 2023, SOPHiA DDM™ was
used by 770+ healthcare institutions across the globe, including by 450 core genomic customers who used SOPHiA DDM™ to perform over
317,000 analyses.
I am exceptionally proud of the progress made
in 2023, and I would like to take a moment to thank the 400+ hard-working SOPHiANs, our partners, and our investors, all of whom helped
to make this success a reality.
Our six strategic pillars remain our focus for
driving long-term growth. We are as confident as ever in our strategic path, and I am excited to share more detail on our 2023 progress
along these pillars with you.
Accelerating adoption of SOPHiA DDM™ by landing new clinical
customers
Healthcare institutions around the world continue to choose SOPHiA
DDM™ for very good reasons. For example, our platform’s top analytical performance, ability to expedite turnaround time, universal
compatibility (i.e., we work with all sequencer types, library prep, and technologies), and decentralized approach (i.e., customers maintain
ownership of data).
By the end of 2023, we built a network of 450
core genomics customers who use SOPHiA DDM™ regularly to generate insights for patients with cancer or rare and inherited disorders.
I am thrilled to announce that we landed a record
87 new core genomic customers during 2023. This includes 35 new customers signed during Q4. These customers will implement SOPHiA DDM™
over the course of the year and are set to join our network of core genomics customers during 2024.
Growing the adoption of our platform in the US
market continues to be a strong focus area as we see large potential for growth. In 2023, we delivered strong progress in this area. In
2023, US revenue grew 70% to US$9.5 million. We signed 9 new core genomic customers in the US in 2023 and were proud to welcome some of
the top US cancer centers and research labs to the SOPHiA DDM™ network.
Apart from customer relationships, we also had
a landmark year with our partners in the US. Namely, we continued to build our strategic partnership with Memorial Sloan Kettering. During
2023, we entered into a partnership with MSK to help them to decentralize their Liquid Biopsy test MSK-ACCESS® and their Solid Tumor
test MSK-IMPACT®, and to make these tests available to healthcare institutions across the globe. We officially launched MSK-ACCESS®
powered with SOPHiA DDM™ in December and have been pleased to see strong demand for this application in the market. In the US, we
announced a number of new signings for MSK-ACCESS® powered with SOPHiA DDM™ and are looking forward to capitalizing on this
momentum going into 2024.
Expanding usage of SOPHiA DDM™ within
our existing customer base
We continue to employ a “land and expand”
commercial strategy that focuses on winning new customers and then driving usage of our platform by encouraging those customers to adopt
more and more SOPHiA DDM™ applications. Our offering includes an impressive suite of applications, including those for Hereditary
Cancer, Hematology-Oncology, Solid Tumor, Liquid Biopsy, and Rare & Inherited Disorders.
In 2023, we continued to delight our customers,
and in doing so, expand within accounts. Last year, we recorded an impressive NPS score of 75 from our core genomics users. We are incredibly
proud of this achievement. We are also proud that our customers continue to adopt more applications once joining our network. As of the
end of 2023, 56% of customers were using two or more applications, up from 49% a year ago. 31% of customers were using three or more applications,
up from 28% a year ago. And 21% of our customers were using four or more applications, up from 17% a year ago. The continued proof of
our ability to expand within existing customers exemplifies the importance of landing new customers across the globe.
Building SOPHiA DDM™’s menu of
offerings
2023 was a landmark year for building our menu
of offerings. I will highlight 2 major launches from 2023, including how they are already driving significant value for our customers.
First, and as mentioned previously, we launched
an expanded suite of Liquid Biopsy applications in December 2023. This includes MSK-ACCESS® powered with SOPHiA DDM™. Our Liquid
Biopsy applications are powered by a proprietary molecular barcoding technology named CUMIN™. CUMIN™ uses a unique approach
to detecting signal from noise in samples with low input material, such as those
collected for liquid biopsies, and differentiates
our Liquid Biopsy application in a powerful way. For these reasons, we are excited by the application we developed, especially as we see
strong demand already in the market.
The second item I would like to highlight was
the launch of our multimodal module on SOPHiA DDM™, SOPHiA CarePath™. SOPHiA CarePath™ enables customers to go beyond
genomics and perform longitudinal analysis of multimodal patient data (e.g., imaging data, clinical data, biological data). The multimodal
capabilities of SOPHiA CarePath™ are designed to predict treatment effects of different therapy decisions in addition to allowing
clinicians to perform patient cohorting and data visualization.
Leveraging SOPHiA DDM™ to provide value
to our BioPharma companies
As you can imagine, the multimodal capabilities
of SOPHiA CarePath™ provide differentiated value to our BioPharma customers who are willing to pay for the access to the multimodal
patient data and to the predictive multimodal models which analyze them.
Towards the end of 2023, we completed a landmark
project with one of our key BioPharma partners where SOPHiA CarePath™ identified a signature in subpopulations of lung cancer patients
which could indicate different treatment effects for a specific drug. We continue to remain excited about these use cases for our multimodal
offering and the substantial value these capabilities bring to our BioPharma customers
In addition to the value our multimodal capabilities
bring to BioPharma customers, we also share a mutual interest with BioPharma companies to expand access to cancer testing across the globe.
In 2023, we completed a number of partnerships with BioPharma partners where they sponsored the deployment of SOPHiA DDM™.
Our partnership with AstraZeneca has been a major
proof point in this area. Last month, we announced that AZ sponsored the deployment of SOPHiA DDM’s HRD application across Spain
in 2023 with resounding success. Following up on the success of this program, we also announced a new partnership with AZ to deploy MSK-ACCESS®
and MSK-IMPACT® powered with SOPHiA DDM™ to customers across the globe during 2024.
Building partnerships in the ecosystem
As evidenced throughout this note, building the
future of data-driven medicine is not something we can do alone. We achieved considerable momentum in 2023 by collaborating with premier
leaders in our industry, further enabling our applications to reach more patients.
In 2023, we delivered significant partnerships
with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, AstraZeneca, Boundless Bio, and Microsoft, among others. We also announced partnerships with
Agilent and Qiagen to deliver integrated solutions for Solid Tumors. We look forward to continuing to work with our valued partners in
2024 as we expand access to precision cancer care together.
Excelling operationally within SOPHiA GENETICS
Our final strategic pillar focuses on excelling
operationally at every level within SOPHiA GENETICS. Our long-term commitment to operational excellence produces savings that have benefited
both growth and margins. I’m proud to announce that our adjusted gross margin was 72% for the full year 2023 compared to 68% for
2022. Moreover, we improved cash burn by 36% in 2023 while maintaining revenue growth of over 30%.
In January of 2024, I was proud to announce our
plans to achieve adjusted operating profitability in the next 2+ years. Being a sustainable company is critically important to us and
the populations we serve. We have taken the required cost actions to expedite that goal and remain obsessed with capital efficiency. Based
on our current trajectory, we remain confident in our ability to execute our ambitious growth plans, and we remain laser-focused on delivering
sustainable growth for years to come.
Closing remarks
After a successful and unforgettable 2023, our
focus shifts to the future. In 2024, we are looking forward to continuing to execute on our vision and creating value at every turn. Our
six strategic pillars remain our foundation to drive growth and value creation. I am encouraged and as confident as ever about our long-term
trajectory.
In closing, I’d like to thank the SOPHiANs,
our passionate and dedicated employees, for their hard work and incredible contributions towards building the future of precision medicine.
I’d also like to thank our partners, customers, and investors for joining us on this journey. Without you, none of this would be
possible. I look forward to continuing to update you on SOPHiA GENETICS’ future success in democratizing data-driven medicine.
Sincerely,
Dr. Jurgi Camblong
Chief Executive Officer

Explanation:
Pursuant to Swiss law and the AoA, the Annual General Meeting is responsible to elect the statutory auditors.
| 9. | Approval of the Compensation of the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee |
| a. | Approval of the maximum aggregate amount of compensation of the Board of Directors until completion of the
2025 Annual General Meeting |
The Board proposes to approve a maximum
aggregate amount of compensation for the members of the Board of USD 1,942,600 for the period from the AGM 2024 to the 2025 Annual
General Meeting.
Explanation: Pursuant to Swiss
law and the AoA, the aggregate amount of compensation of the Board is to be submitted to a binding vote by the Annual General Meeting.
The compensation for the Board and its committees is comprised of cash board fees and participation in the Company’s long-term equity
incentive plan. The current Board consists of eight members (two of whom do not receive compensation as Board members). The proposed amount
of compensation is the same amount as approved by the 2023 Annual General Meeting and reflects the total amount for six paid members of
the Board and provides a cushion to facilitate new appointments and potential replacements or
additions throughout the year in accordance
with the Company’s directors’ compensation policy. The Board intends to re-evaluate the Board compensation for the subsequent
period ahead of the 2025 Annual General Meeting. Additional information on the compensation of the Board can be found in the 2023 Compensation
Report.
| b. | Approval of the maximum aggregate amount of fixed compensation of the Executive Committee for 2025 |
The Board proposes to approve a maximum
aggregate amount of fixed compensation for the members of the Executive Committee of USD 2,851,310 for the financial year 2025.
Explanation: Pursuant to Swiss
law and the AoA, the aggregate amount of fixed compensation of the Executive Committee is to be submitted to a binding vote by the Annual
General Meeting. The fixed compensation for the six members of the Executive Committee is comprised of annual salary, excluding social
security and pension contributions, paid by the Company. The proposed amount reflects a total increase of up to 15% and is intended to
provide for merit increases, as well as to compensate for inflation and to cover exchange rate fluctuations for compensation paid in CHF
to the Swiss-based members of the Executive Committee.
| c. | Approval of the maximum aggregate amount of variable compensation of the Executive Committee for 2024 |
The Board proposes to approve a maximum
aggregate amount of variable compensation for the members of the Executive Committee of USD 14,500,000 for the current financial
year 2024.
Explanation: Pursuant to Swiss
law and the AoA, the aggregate amount of variable compensation of the Executive Committee is to be submitted to a binding vote by the
Annual General Meeting. The variable compensation for the six members of the Executive Committee is comprised of annual cash bonus payments
and participation in the Company’s long-term equity incentive plan, including stock options and RSUs.
| d. | Approval of the maximum aggregate amount of variable compensation of the Executive Committee for 2023 |
The Board proposes to approve a maximum
aggregate amount of variable compensation for the members of the Executive Committee of USD 12,189,800 for the financial year 2023.
Explanation: In 2023 the General
Assembly approved a maximum aggregate amount of variable compensation of the Executive Committee for the financial year 2023 of USD 12,000,000.
Due to over-achievement of performance objectives by certain members of the Executive Committee, currency exchange rate effects, share
price volatility and a clerical error, the previously approved maximum variable compensation is not sufficient to fulfill the compensation
obligations. It is therefore proposed to increase the maximum variable compensation for the members of the Executive Committee for 2023
from USD 12,000,000 to USD 12,189,800.
| 10. | Amendments to the Articles of Association |
Explanations of the proposed amendments
to the AoA by the Board can be found below under each respective agenda item.
| a. | Capital Range (or Band) |
The
Board proposes to amend Article 4a of the AoA (Capital Range) in order to extend the term of the capital range and, accordingly, to replace
Article 4a para. 1 of the AoA by the following provision (amendments are in bold and underlined; rest remains unchanged):
“The Company has a capital
range ranging from CHF 3,319,908.20 (lower limit) to CHF 4,979,862.30 (upper limit). The Board of Directors shall be authorized
within the capital range to increase or reduce the share capital once or several times and in any amounts or to acquire or dispose of
shares directly or indirectly, until June 24, 2029 or until an earlier expiry of the capital range. The capital increase
or reduction may be effected by issuing up to 33,199,082 fully paid-in registered shares with a par value of CHF 0.05 each and cancelling
up to 33,199,082 registered shares with a par value of CHF 0.05 each, as applicable, or by increasing or reducing the par value of
the existing shares within the limits of the capital range or by simultaneous reduction and re-increase of the share capital.”
“La Société
dispose d'une marge de fluctuation du capital allant de CHF 3'319'908.20 (limite inférieure) à CHF 4'979'862.30
(limite supérieure). Le Conseil d'Administration peut dans les limites définies de la marge de fluctuation, et ce jusqu'au
24 juin 2029 ou jusqu'à l'expiration anticipée de la marge de fluctuation, augmenter ou réduire le
capital-actions en une ou plusieurs fois, de quelque montant que ce soit, ou acquérir ou aliéner des actions directement
ou indirectement. L'augmentation ou la réduction du capital peut se faire par l'émission de jusqu'à 33'199'082 actions
nominatives d'une valeur nominale de CHF 0.05 chacune, qui doivent être intégralement libérées, respectivement
l'annulation de jusqu'à 33'199'082 actions nominatives d'une valeur nominale de CHF 0.05 chacune, ou par une augmentation
ou une réduction, dans les limites de la marge de fluctuation, de la valeur nominale des actions nominatives existantes ou encore
par une réduction et une nouvelle augmentation simultanées.”
Explanation:
The proposed amendments in Article 4a para. 1 of the AoA aims at extending the term of the capital range until June 24, 2029, which is
currently scheduled to expire on June 26, 2028. In 2023, the General Assembly decided to replace the authorized share capital of the Company,
which is no longer permitted under Swiss law, by a capital range. Additional information can be found in the 2023 Invitation to the General
Meeting. Those amendments require the approval of two-thirds of the shares represented at the Annual General Meeting.
| b. | Conditional Share Capital |
The
Board proposes to amend Article 4b of the AoA (Conditional Share Capital for Employee Participation) in order to increase the total amount
of the conditional share capital and, accordingly, to replace Article 4b para. 1 of the AoA by the following provision (amendments are
in bold and underlined; rest remains unchanged):
“The share capital may be
increased in an amount not to exceed CHF 903,076.40 through the issuance of up to 18,061,528 fully paid
in registered shares with a par value of CHF 0.05 per share through the direct or indirect issuance of shares, or through the exercise
or mandatory exercise of
rights to acquire shares or through
obligations to acquire shares that were granted to or imposed on members of the Board of Directors (or equivalent corporate body), members
of the executive management, employees, contractors or consultants of the Company or its group companies, or other persons providing services
to the Company or its group companies.”
“Le capital-actions peut être augmenté d'un montant maximum de CHF 903'076.40
par l'émission de 18'061'528 actions nominatives au plus, d'une valeur nominale de CHF 0.05 chacune, qui doivent
être intégralement libérées, par l'émission directe ou indirecte d'actions ou par l'exercice ou l'exercice
obligatoire de droits de souscription d'actions ou par des obligations d'acquisition d'actions accordées ou imposées à
des membres du conseil d'administration (ou d'un organe équivalent), des membres de la direction, des employés, des co-contractants
ou des consultants de la Société ou de l'une des sociétés du groupe, ou d'autres personnes exerçant
des services au bénéfice de la Société ou de l'une des sociétés du groupe.”
Explanation:
The proposed amendments in Article 4b para. 1 of the AoA cover the annual 5% evergreen top-up provided in the Company’s 2021 Equity
Incentive Plan and will further serve to grant equity securities to the persons mentioned in Article 4b para. 1 of the AoA in view of
incentivizing them to contribute to the Company's success and long-term business value. The Company does not plan to change its equity-linked
compensation practice based on the updated wording of Article 4b of the AoA. Those amendments require the approval of two-thirds of the
shares represented at the Annual General Meeting.

“could,” “expect,” “should,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” “will”
and “potential,” among others. Forward-looking statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and
on information currently available to our management. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ
materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements due to various factors, including, but not limited to, those
identified in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023 (our “20-F

including statements relating to the portion of our remaining performance obligation that we expect to recognize as revenue in future
periods; |

applications and data modalities; |
| • | future investments in our business, our anticipated capital expenditures and our estimates regarding our

to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions described in the “Risk Factors” section of our 20-F 2023 and our other
SEC filings. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or
quantified and some of which are beyond our control, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future
events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could
differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors
and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties. Except
as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as
a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise. You should read this invitation with the understanding
that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. |
