VENLO, Netherlands–(BUSINESS WIRE)–$QGEN #QIAGEN–QIAGEN N.V. (NYSE: QGEN; Frankfurt Prime Standard: QIA) today announced solid results for Q2 2025 that exceeded the outlook, and increased the full-year 2025 outlook for net sales growth while reaffirming the adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) target that was raised earlier in the year.


Net sales rose 7% to $534 million compared to Q2 2024, with 6% growth at constant exchange rates (CER) exceeding the outlook for at least 5% CER growth. Core sales, which exclude discontinued products such as NeuMoDx and Dialunox, also rose 6% CER. The adjusted operating income margin increased 1.5 percentage points to 29.9% of sales, driven by efficiency gains across QIAGEN while absorbing the impact of new tariffs. Adjusted diluted EPS was $0.60, with results of $0.62 CER exceeding the outlook for at least $0.60 CER.

Based on the solid performance in H1 2025, and taking into account current macroeconomic trends (including U.S. and China import tariffs), QIAGEN has increased the FY 2025 net sales outlook to 4-5% CER growth (prior about 4% CER growth) and 5-6% CER core sales growth (prior about 5% CER growth), and reaffirmed the adjusted diluted EPS target of about $2.35 CER, which was increased by seven cents in April 2025, and for an adjusted operating income margin of about 30%.

“Our teams achieved another solid performance in Q2 2025, with results ahead of our outlook for both sales and adjusted earnings. QIAstat-Dx and QuantiFERON posted strong double-digit growth, while QIAcuity and QIAGEN Digital Insights continued to expand their contributions. Sample technologies saw good demand for automated consumables, and we are preparing to launch three important new instruments starting in late 2025 to support future growth. These results reflect focused execution, strategic investments and disciplined management. We are on track to achieve our upgraded 2025 targets and deliver solid profitable growth,” said Thierry Bernard, CEO of QIAGEN.

“QIAGEN delivered strong financial results in Q2 2025, with the adjusted operating margin rising to 29.9 percent as we progress toward our 2028 goal for at least 31% faster than planned. Efficiency gains and disciplined cost management are supporting reinvestments in key initiatives while maintaining strong cash flow. As part of our capital allocation strategy, we have now returned over $350 million to shareholders in 2025 through the synthetic share repurchase and our first-ever cash dividend. We remain focused on funding innovation and creating value through an ongoing balanced and disciplined approach,” said Roland Sackers, CFO of QIAGEN.

Use of adjusted results

QIAGEN reports adjusted results and constant exchange rate (CER) measures, along with other non-GAAP financial metrics, to provide deeper insight into its business performance. These include core sales (excluding discontinued products), adjusted gross margin and profit, adjusted operating income and expenses, adjusted operating income margin, adjusted net income, adjusted income before taxes, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted tax rate, and free cash flow. Free cash flow is calculated as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment. Adjusted results are non-GAAP measures that QIAGEN views as complementary to GAAP-reported results. They exclude items considered outside of ongoing core operations, subject to significant period-to-period fluctuation, or that reduce comparability with competitors and historical performance. QIAGEN also uses these non-GAAP and constant currency measures internally for planning, forecasting, reporting, and employee compensation purposes. These metrics support consistent comparison of current and past performance, which has historically been presented on an adjusted basis.
