“Illumina shipped a record 2,400 sequencing systems in 2019, including a record number of our high-throughput NovaSeq systems and mid-throughput NextSeq systems, reflecting strong demand for research and clinical sequencing,” said Francis deSouza, President and CEO. “With the launch of our most innovative system to date in the NextSeq 2000, and a growing pipeline of clinical IVD and software solutions, Illumina continues to improve the accessibility of sequencing. Almost 17 years after the first human genome was sequenced, we believe that this is the decade that genomics becomes available to cancer and genetic disease patients on a mass scale and integrates into standard of care.”

Updates since our last earnings release:

  • Announced the NextSeq™ 1000 and NextSeq 2000 Sequencing Systems offering breakthrough system design, chemistry innovations and on-instrument integrated informatics for rapid secondary analysis
  • Shared plans for additional product launches including TruSight™ Software Suite to enable sample-to-report for genetic disease and NovaSeq Dx to fulfill the growing interest in a Dx platform for deeper sequencing at higher throughput, and TruSight NIPT
  • Partnered with Roche to broaden the adoption of distributable next-generation sequencing-based (NGS) testing in oncology
  • Partnered with Genomics England to provide sequencing services to the United Kingdom's National Health Service to sequence 300,000 to 500,000 whole genomes by 2025
  • Mutually terminated the merger agreement with Pacific Biosciences
  • Filed patent infringement suits against BGI in Sweden and the United Kingdom
  • Repurchased $63 million of outstanding common stock in the fourth quarter of 2019 under the previously announced share repurchase program, which had a remaining balance of approximately $226 million as of December 29, 2019

Financial outlook and guidance

The non-GAAP financial guidance discussed below reflects certain pro forma adjustments to assist in analyzing and assessing our core operational performance. Please see our Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Guidance included in this release for a reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures.

For fiscal 2020, the company expects year over year revenue growth in the range of 9% to 11%, and expects GAAP earnings per diluted share of $6.45 to $6.65 and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share of $6.80 to $7.00. GAAP guidance does not include any potential impact resulting from the termination of our merger agreement with Pacific Biosciences on January 2, 2020.

Quarterly conference call information

The conference call will begin at 2:00 pm Pacific Time (5:00 pm Eastern Time) on Wednesday, January 29, 2020. Interested parties may access the live teleconference through the Investor Info section of Illumina’s website under the “Company” tab at www.illumina.com.

Statement regarding use of non-GAAP financial measures

The company reports non-GAAP results for diluted net income per share, net income, gross margins, operating expenses, operating margins, other income, and free cash flow in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The company’s financial measures under GAAP include substantial charges such as amortization of acquired intangible assets, non-cash interest expense associated with the company’s convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash, and others that are listed in the itemized reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release. Management has excluded the effects of these items in non-GAAP measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing past and future operating performance. Additionally, non-GAAP net income attributable to Illumina stockholders and diluted earnings per share attributable to Illumina stockholders are key components of the financial metrics utilized by the company’s board of directors to measure, in part, management’s performance and determine significant elements of management’s compensation.

The company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP results are presented in the tables of this release.

Use of forward-looking statements

This release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including our financial outlook and guidance for fiscal 2020 and our expectations and beliefs regarding future conduct and growth of the business and the markets in which we operate. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements are: (i) changes in the rate of growth in the markets we serve; (ii) the volume, timing and mix of customer orders among our products and services; (iii) our ability to adjust our operating expenses to align with our revenue expectations; (iv) our ability to manufacture robust instrumentation and consumables; (v) the success of products and services competitive with our own; (vi) challenges inherent in developing, manufacturing, and launching new products and services, including expanding or modifying manufacturing operations and reliance on third-party suppliers for critical components; (vii) the impact of recently launched or pre-announced products and services on existing products and services; (viii) our ability to further develop and commercialize our instruments and consumables, to deploy new products, services, and applications, and to expand the markets for our technology platforms; (ix) our ability to obtain regulatory clearance for our products from government agencies; (x) our ability to successfully partner with other companies and organizations to develop new products, expand markets, and grow our business; (xi) our ability to successfully identify and integrate acquired technologies, products, or businesses; and (xxii) the application of generally accepted accounting principles, which are highly complex and involve many subjective assumptions, estimates, and judgments, together with other factors detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent filings on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, or in information disclosed in public conference calls, the date and time of which are released beforehand. We undertake no obligation, and do not intend, to update these forward-looking statements, to review or confirm analysts’ expectations, or to provide interim reports or updates on the progress of the current quarter.

(a) Free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities reduced by purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow is useful to management as it is one of the metrics used to evaluate our performance and to compare us with other companies in our industry. However, our calculation of free cash flow may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

(b) Net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2019 included an $84 million payment of the accreted debt discount related to the conversions of our 2019 Notes.

All amounts in tables are rounded to the nearest millions, except as otherwise noted. As a result, certain amounts may not recalculate using the rounded amounts provided.

(a) Non-GAAP gross profit, included within non-GAAP operating profit, is a key measure of the effectiveness and efficiency of manufacturing processes, product mix and the average selling prices of our products and services. Non-GAAP operating profit, and non-GAAP other income, net, exclude the effects of the pro forma adjustments as detailed above. Management has excluded the effects of these items in these measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing past and future operating performance.

(b) Amounts are recorded in cost of revenue.

(c) Amounts consist primarily of employee and lease exit costs related to restructuring that occurred in 2019, 2018, and 2017.

(d) Amounts consist of expenses related to the Pacific Biosciences acquisition which was terminated on January 2, 2020.

(e) Non-cash interest expense is calculated in accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash.

(f) Amounts consist primarily of mark-to-market adjustments and impairments from our strategic investments.

(g) Amounts consist of the $39 million gain recognized as a result of the Helix deconsolidation in Q2 and the $15 million gain recorded in Q1 that resulted from the settlement of a contingency related to the deconsolidation of GRAIL in 2017.

(h) Amounts consist of mark-to-market adjustments related to our contingent value right received from Helix.
