OTHER INFORMATION

On April 29, 2024, QIAGEN N.V. (NYSE: QGEN; Frankfurt, Prime Standard: QIA) issued a press release announcing its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024. The press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

QIAGEN has regularly reported adjusted results, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures, to give additional insight into our financial performance as a supplement to understand, manage, and evaluate our business results and make operating decisions. We also use the adjusted results when comparing to our historical operating results, which have consistently been presented on an adjusted basis.

Adjusted results should be considered in addition to the reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, but should not be considered as a substitute. Reconciliations of reported results to adjusted results are included in the tables accompanying the press release. We believe certain items should be excluded from adjusted results when they are outside of our ongoing core operations, vary significantly from period to period, or affect the comparability of results with the Company’s competitors and our own prior periods.

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are non-GAAP net sales, gross profit, operating income, pre-tax income, net income, tax rate and diluted earnings per share. These adjusted results exclude costs related to business integration, acquisition and restructuring related items, long-lived asset impairments, amortization of acquired intangible assets, non-cash interest expense charges as well as other special income and expense items. Management views these costs as not indicative of the profitability or cash flows of our ongoing or future operations and therefore considers the adjusted results as a supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, the reported GAAP results.

We use a measure of free cash flow to estimate the cash flow remaining after purchases of property, plant and equipment as required to maintain or expand our business. This measure provides us with supplemental information to assess our liquidity needs. We calculate free cash flow as net cash from operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment.

We also consider results on a constant currency basis. Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar and our subsidiaries’ functional currencies are the local currency of the respective countries in which they are headquartered. A significant portion of our revenues and expenses is denominated in euros and currencies other than the United States dollar. Management believes that analysis of constant currency period-over-period changes is useful because changes in exchange rates can affect the growth rate of net sales and expenses, potentially to a significant degree. Constant currency figures are calculated by translating the local currency actual results in the current period using the average exchange rates from the previous year’s respective period instead of the current period.

We use non-GAAP and constant currency financial measures internally in our planning, forecasting and reporting, as well as to measure and compensate our employees. We do not reconcile forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections that are impacted by future decisions and actions. Accordingly, reconciliations of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable effort. However, the actual amounts of these excluded items will have a significant impact on QIAGEN’s GAAP results.

Venlo, the Netherlands, April 29, 2024 - QIAGEN N.V. (NYSE: QGEN; Frankfurt Prime Standard: QIA) today announced results for the first quarter of 2024.

Net sales declined 5% to $459 million, while results at constant exchanges rates (CER) of $462 million were above the outlook for at least $455 million CER. The adjusted operating income margin rose to 25.7% from 25.6% in the year-ago period on realized efficiency gains while supporting investments into the portfolio. Adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $0.46, and results at CER were $0.47 and above the outlook for at least $0.44 CER.

For 2024, QIAGEN has reaffirmed its outlook for net sales of at least $2.0 billion CER. Adjusted diluted EPS are expected to be at least $2.10 CER, led by the adjusted operating income margin rising to above 28% of sales for FY 2024 compared to 26.9% in 2023 while supporting investments.

"Our results for the first quarter of 2024 show QIAGEN is on track to achieve the goals that we have set for the year. They also showcase the areas of resilient growth from our strategic investments - particularly with the double-digit sales growth in QuantiFERON, QIAstat-Dx and QIAcuity - as well as our commitment to improving efficiency," said Thierry Bernard, Chief Executive Officer of QIAGEN.

"As we move on from the pandemic, we are steadfast in our commitment to driving innovation given our ongoing high level of R&D investments that help strengthen our portfolio. QuantiFERON sales continued to grow as we drive conversion of latent TB testing to the modern blood-based test. QIAstat-Dx sales were also robust, with growth in both respiratory and non-respiratory panels for syndromic testing. Building on the tremendous acceptance of QIAcuity among our customers, we are democratizing access to this powerful digital PCR technology and expanding into new oncology applications that can improve healthcare. As we navigate a challenging macro environment, we are well-positioned in 2024 and determined to deliver on our full-year outlook."

Roland Sackers, Chief Financial Officer of QIAGEN, said: "Our strong operating income margin in Q1 2024 reflects our dedication to efficiency and growth-focused investments despite cautious instrument purchases. As we introduce new products and elevate customer engagement, our commitment to enhancing value for our shareholders remains strong. Having completed the $300 million synthetic share repurchase in January, we continue to explore opportunities to maximize our business thanks to our healthy balance sheet and strong cash flow through disciplined capital allocation." Please refer to accompanying tables in this release for full income statement information and a reconciliation of reported to adjusted figures.

Tables may have rounding differences. Percentage changes are to prior-year periods.

•Sales: Q1 2024 results absorbed challenging macro demand trends, led by Diagnostic solutions sales rising 5% CER. Core sales declined 1% CER excluding pandemic sales in both periods. Results in Q1 2024 also absorbed the adverse impact of declining OEM sales over the prior year, but these sales are expected to normalize during the course of 2024 compared to 2023 levels. Consumables for the non-COVID product groups were unchanged from Q1 2023. Although instrument sales fell 9% CER due to cautious customer spending, placements under multi-year reagent rental agreements kept up a solid pace.

•Operating income: For Q1 2024, the adjusted operating income margin improved to 25.7% of sales from 25.6% in the year-ago period, as efficiency initiatives more than offset the lower level of sales in the 2024 period. In terms of components, the adjusted gross margin was 67.1% of sales in Q1 2024 compared to 67.3% in Q1 2023 amid initiatives to improve production capacity utilization. R&D investments were 11.2% of sales in Q1 2024 compared 11.3% in Q1 2023, remaining at a high level and supporting new product development, particularly for QIAcuity, QIAstat-Dx and the QIAGEN Digital Insights bioinformatics business. Sales and marketing expenses rose to 24.2% of sales in Q1 2024 from 23.6% in Q1 2023. General and administrative expenses fell to 6.0% of sales from 6.8% in Q1 2023.

•EPS: For Q1 2024, adjusted diluted EPS were $0.46, while adjusted diluted EPS of $0.47 CER were above the outlook for at least $0.44 CER. The adjusted tax rate was 20% in Q1 2024 compared to 19% in the year-ago period. The number of diluted shares was 226.6 million for Q1 2024, in line with the outlook of 227 million diluted shares that included the reduction due to completion of the $300 million synthetic share repurchase in January 2024.

Tables may have rounding differences. Percentage changes are to prior-year periods.

•Sample technologies: Q1 2024 results showed higher consumables sales for automated kits used on the QIAsymphony, QIAcube Connect and EZ2 instruments. Overall sales declined due to cautious capital investments among customers into new instruments, as well as the adverse impact of COVID pandemic demand in the year-ago period. Sales in the non-COVID product groups declined at a low-single-digit CER rate over Q1 2023.

•Diagnostic solutions: Q1 2024 results were driven by solid growth in consumables. QuantiFERON TB test sales rose 11% CER for another consecutive quarter above $100 million, supported by solid demand trends in all regions amid conversion from the TB skin test that still represents the majority of worldwide testing. QIAstat-Dx system sales were up 21% CER to $25 million from instrument placements and significant double-digit CER growth in consumables for both respiratory and non-respiratory panels.

•PCR / Nucleic acid amplification: QIAcuity digital PCR sales rose at a solid double-digit CER rate in Q1 2024 amid consumables demand and an ongoing high level of instrument placements. Overall sales declined over Q1 2023 mainly due to the OEM business, with sales trends expected to improve during the course of 2024.

•Genomics / Next-generation sequencing (NGS): Sales in Q1 2024 were unchanged at CER compared to Q1 2023. Modest gains were seen in sales of universal library preparation solutions for use with third-party NGS sequencers. QIAGEN Digital Insights (QDI) bioinformatics sales declined modestly in Q1 2024 due to the timing of a large customer contract, but are expected to grow at a double-digit CER pace for the year.

•As of March 31, 2024, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments stood at $893.1 million compared to $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2023. Results for the 2024 period included the return of approximately $300 million to shareholders in January 2024 through the synthetic share repurchase, which involved the repurchase of approximately 6.8 million outstanding shares. The leverage ratio was 0.9x (net debt to adjusted EBITDA) as of March 31, 2024, compared to 0.6x at December 31, 2023. QIAGEN has about $500 million of convertible notes and $100 million of German private placements (Schuldschein) reaching maturity in 2024.

Portfolio update

QIAGEN is building momentum in its Sample to Insight portfolio through targeted actions including:

Sample technologies

•The PAXgene Urine Liquid Biopsy Set is set for launch in mid-2024 as a non-invasive sampling approach for cell-free DNA in urine (ucfDNA). This technology holds the potential for detecting minimal residual disease, monitoring treatment response and identifying therapeutic targets.

•QIAGEN received two sustainability recognitions from My Green Lab, a non-profit organization focused on promoting sustainability in scientific research. A group of new QIAwave Kits received the ACT Environmental Impact Factor Label. Additionally, QIAGEN's Sample Technologies R&D lab in Hilden, Germany, achieved Platinum certification.

Diagnostic solutions

•QIAGEN has partnered with the International Panel Physicians Association (IPPA) to educate physicians worldwide on the latest tuberculosis screening requirements. The initiative will promote greater use of testing based on IGRA technology, such as QIAGEN's QuantiFERON-TB Plus. Another element involves supporting the global fight against TB and aligning the updated U.S. Centers for Diseases Control (CDC) guidelines for immigrant TB screening.

•The QIAstat-Dx Analyzer 2.0 was launched as an upgrade to the QIAstat-Dx syndromic testing system. A new feature allows users to view, comment and confirm test results directly from their devices from anywhere. This upgrade aims to streamline connections between labs and healthcare professionals, ensuring timely and accurate diagnoses for improved patient care.

PCR / Nucleic Acid Amplification

•The QIAcuity dPCR portfolio was expanded with the launch of PanCancer Kits, which allow researchers to simultaneously detect multiple EGFR and BRAF mutations with high sensitivity. These mutations can result in cancer development. The Kits build on the increasing range of applications available for use on QIAcuity systems based on proprietary digital PCR technology.

Genomics / NGS

•QIAGEN Biomedical KB-AI, an AI-driven knowledge base for advancing drug discovery in the pharma and biotech industries, has been launched. Built on a vast dataset of biomedical literature and scientific sources, it extracts causal relationships between genes, diseases, drugs and biological entities. Developed by QIAGEN Digital Insights, this new software solution aids in understanding disease mechanisms, drug targets, biomarkers, and repurposing strategies.

Capital Markets Day 2024 planned for June 17

The Executive Committee of QIAGEN will hold a Capital Markets Day on Monday, June 17, 2024, to provide a strategy update and perspectives on mid-term ambitions. The event will be held at the New York Stock Exchange in New York. Please register at https://capitalmarketsday2024.qiagen.com to attend in person or online. An agenda and further details will be available closer to the event.

Outlook

For 2024, QIAGEN has reaffirmed its outlook for net sales of at least $2.0 billion CER. This reflects full-year total growth of at least 2% CER, with solid mid-single-digit CER sales growth in H2 2024 in the non-COVID portfolio over the year-ago period. This outlook also includes about one percentage point of COVID-19 sales headwinds from 2023. Consumables and related revenues are expected to drive growth, while larger-scale instrument sales remain challenging. Adjusted diluted EPS are expected to be at least $2.10 CER. This reflects an at least one percentage point improvement in the adjusted operating income margin to above 28% for FY 2024 compared to 26.9% in 2023 while supporting investments in the portfolio, in particular to accelerate growth in the QIAGEN Digital Insights bioinformatics business.

Based on exchange rates as of April 26, 2024, currency movements against the U.S. dollar are expected to have a largely neutral impact on full-year net sales, but an adverse impact of about $0.01 per share on adjusted EPS results.

For Q2 2024, net sales are expected to be at least $495 million CER, while adjusted diluted EPS are expected to be at least $0.52 CER per share.

Based on exchange rates as of April 26, 2024, currency movements against the U.S. dollar are expected to have a largely neutral impact on Q2 2024 net sales, but a negative impact of about $0.01 per share on adjusted EPS results.

Investor presentation and conference call

A conference call is planned for Tuesday, April 30, 2024 at 15:00 Frankfurt Time / 14:00 London Time / 9:00 New York Time. A live audio webcast will be made available in the investor relations section of the QIAGEN website, and a recording will also be made available after the event. A presentation will be available before the conference call at https://corporate.qiagen.com/investor-relations/events-and-presentations/default.aspx.

Use of adjusted results

QIAGEN reports adjusted results, as well as results on a constant exchange rate (CER) basis, and other non-U.S. GAAP figures (generally accepted accounting principles), to provide additional insight into its performance. These results include adjusted net sales, adjusted gross income, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income before taxes, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS, adjusted income taxes, adjusted tax rate, and free cash flow. Free cash flow is calculated by deducting capital expenditures for Property, Plant & Equipment from cash flow from operating activities. Adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures that QIAGEN believes should be considered in addition to reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered as a substitute. QIAGEN believes certain items should be excluded from adjusted results when they are outside of ongoing core operations, vary significantly from period to period, or affect the comparability of results with competitors and its own prior periods. Furthermore, QIAGEN uses non-GAAP and constant currency financial measures internally in planning, forecasting and reporting, as well as to measure and compensate employees. QIAGEN also uses adjusted results when comparing current performance to historical operating results, which have consistently been presented on an adjusted basis.
