QIAGEN Rides On Solid QuantiFERON-TB Sales Amid Several Woes

 | Nov 17, 2019 10:24PM ET

On Nov 15, we issued an updated research report on QIAGEN N.V. (NYSE:QGEN) . The company's business is consistently getting a boost from its flourishing molecular diagnostic market. However, overdependence on relationships with collaborative partners and foreign exchange headwinds are downsides. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

QIAGEN ended the third quarter on a mixed note with earnings beating and revenues missing the estimates. The company registered revenue growth across majority of its geographies and operating segments. We are also upbeat about the company’s Sample to Insight portfolio progress in the period.

Developments like QuantiFERON-TB’s growth at 18% CER and continued momentum of the QIAstat-Dx and QIAsymphony are appreciative. The recently-inked 15-year strategic partnership with Illumina (NASDAQ:ILMN) is also encouraging. Additionally, we are impressed with the company’s strong international performance. Further, it steadily gained traction from its collaboration with DiaSorin.
