During the third quarter of 2023, the company recognized $712 million in goodwill and $109 million in intangible asset (IPR&D) impairment related to the GRAIL segment. The goodwill impairment was primarily due to a decrease in the company's consolidated market capitalization and a higher discount rate selected for the fair value calculation of the GRAIL reporting unit. The IPR&D impairment was primarily due to a decrease in projected cash flows and a higher discount rate selected for the fair value calculation of the GRAIL IPR&D asset. During the third quarter of 2022, the company recognized $3.91 billion in goodwill impairment related to the GRAIL segment.

Capital expenditures for free cash flow purposes were $45 million for Q3 2023. Cash flow provided by operations was $139 million, compared to cash flow used in operations of $(52) million in the prior year period, which included a one-time payment related to the litigation settlement with BGI. Free cash flow (cash flow provided by (used in) operations less capital expenditures) was $94 million for the quarter, compared to $(119) million in the prior year period. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $108 million for Q3 2023. At the close of the quarter, the company held $933 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. During the third quarter of 2023, the company used $750 million in cash to repay the outstanding principal of convertible notes that matured in August 2023.

(b) Core Illumina revenue for Q3 2023 was flat as compared to Q3 2022, and flat on a constant currency basis. Amounts for Q3 2023 and Q3 2022 included intercompany revenue of $8 million and $5 million, respectively, which is eliminated in consolidation.

(c) The year-over-year decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by less fixed cost leverage on lower manufacturing volumes, product mix, as well as lower instrument margins and higher field service and installation costs due to the NovaSeq X launch, which is typical in a launch year.

Statement regarding use of non-GAAP financial measures

The company reports non-GAAP results for diluted earnings per share, net income, gross margin, operating expenses, including research and development expense, selling general and administrative expense, and from time to time, as applicable, legal contingencies and settlement, and goodwill and intangible impairment, operating income (loss), operating margin, gross profit (loss), other income (expense), tax provision, constant currency revenue growth, and free cash flow (on a consolidated and, as applicable, segment basis for our Core Illumina and GRAIL segments) 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 among others that are listed in the itemized reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release, as well as the effects of currency translation. Management has excluded the effects of these items in non-GAAP measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing past and future operating performance, including in the non-GAAP measures related to our Core Illumina and GRAIL segments. Additionally, non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share 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 may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Among the important factors to which our business is subject 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 modify our business strategies to accomplish our desired operational goals; (ix) our ability to realize the anticipated benefits from prior or future actions to streamline and improve our R&D processes, reduce our operating expenses and maximize our revenue growth; (x) our ability to further develop and commercialize our instruments, consumables, and products, including Galleri, the cancer screening test developed by GRAIL, to deploy new products, services, and applications, and to expand the markets for our technology platforms; (xi) the risks and costs associated with our ongoing inability to integrate GRAIL due to the transitional measures imposed on us by the European Commission as a result of their prohibition of our acquisition of GRAIL and orders issued by the European Commission and the Federal Trade Commission requiring that we divest GRAIL; (xii) the risks and costs associated with the integration of GRAIL's business if we are ultimately able to integrate GRAIL; (xiii) the risk that disruptions from the consummation of our acquisition of GRAIL and associated legal or regulatory proceedings, including appeals, or obligations will harm our business, including current plans and operations; (xiv) the risk of incurring additional fines associated with the consummation of our acquisition of GRAIL and the possibility that we may be required to divest all or a portion of the assets or equity interests of GRAIL on terms that could be materially worse than the terms on which we acquired GRAIL; (xv) our ability to obtain approval by third-party payors to reimburse patients for our products; (xvi) our ability to obtain regulatory clearance for our products from government agencies; (xvii) our ability to successfully partner with other companies and organizations to develop new products, expand markets, and grow our business; (xviii) uncertainty, or adverse economic and business conditions, including as a result of slowing or uncertain economic growth, COVID-19 pandemic mitigation measures, or armed conflict; (xix) the application of generally accepted accounting principles, which are highly complex and involve many subjective assumptions, estimates, and judgments and (xx) legislative, regulatory and economic developments, 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.

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 net income and diluted earnings per share exclude the effects of the pro forma adjustments as detailed above. Non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share 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. Management has excluded the effects of these items in these measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing our past and future operating performance.

(b) Refer to the Itemized Reconciliations between GAAP and Non-GAAP Results of Operations for the components of these amounts.

(c) Amounts represent the impact of GRAIL pre-acquisition net operating losses on GILTI and the utilization of U.S. foreign tax credits.

(d) Incremental non-GAAP tax expense reflects the tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments listed.

(e) Amounts represent the difference between book and tax accounting related to stock-based compensation cost.

(f) In loss periods, GAAP basic loss per share and diluted loss per share are identical since the effect of potentially dilutive shares is anti-dilutive and therefore excluded. For non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, the impact of potentially dilutive shares from our convertible senior notes and equity awards is included and is calculated based on the sum of weighted-average common shares and potentially dilutive shares outstanding during Q3 2022 and YTD 2022.

(g) Amount represents interest expense on the 2023 Convertible Senior Notes, net of any income tax effects, which is added back to the numerator used to calculate non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, for purposes of the if-converted method, as it would have a dilutive effect on the calculation of non-GAAP diluted earnings per share.

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. Percentages of revenue are calculated based on the revenue of the respective segment.


(a) Non-GAAP gross profit, included within non-GAAP operating profit (loss), 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 (loss) and non-GAAP other (expense) 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, including in the non-GAAP measures related to our Core Illumina and GRAIL segments.

(b) Reconciling amounts are recorded in cost of revenue.

(c) Amounts consist primarily of fair value adjustments for our contingent consideration liability related to GRAIL.

(d) Amounts consist primarily of legal expenses related to the acquisition of GRAIL.

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

(f) Amounts consist of fair value adjustments related to our Helix contingent value right.

(g) Amounts for Q3 2023 consist primarily of lease and other asset impairments and amounts for YTD 2023 consist primarily of employee severance costs and lease and other asset impairments related to restructuring activities.

(h) Amount for Q3 2023 consists of a gain related to a patent litigation settlement. The amount for YTD 2023 also consists of a loss related to a patent litigation settlement in Q1 2023 and an adjustment recorded in Q2 2023 to our accrual for the fine imposed by the European Commission in July 2023. Amounts in YTD 2022 consist of an expense of $145 million related to the settlement of our litigation with BGI, which includes a gain of $11 million recorded in Q3 2022 as a result of releasing $6 million of previously recorded litigation accrual and $5 million of a gain contingency recognized in Q3 2022. In addition, the amount in YTD 2022 consists of an accrual of $453 million, recorded in Q2 2022, for the fine imposed by the European Commission.

(i) Amounts for Q3 2023 and YTD 2023 consist of goodwill and IPR&D intangible asset impairments related to our GRAIL segment. Amounts for Q3 2022 and YTD 2022 consist of goodwill impairment related to our GRAIL segment.

(j) Amounts consist of an unrealized mark-to-market loss on hedge entered into in Q3 2023 associated with the EC fine, partially offset by an unrealized gain related to foreign currency balance sheet remeasurement of the EC fine liability.
