Third quarter 2014 results:

  • Revenue of $481 million, a 35% increase compared to $357 million in the third quarter of 2013

  • Cash flow from operations of $146 million and free cash flow of $117 million for the quarter

Gross margin in the third quarter of 2014 was 69.5% compared to 58.8% in the prior year period; the prior year period included impairment charges of $25.2 million related to the discontinuation of a non-core product line. Excluding the effect of non-cash charges associated with stock compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, legal contingencies, and impairments, non-GAAP gross margin was 73.2% for the third quarter of 2014 compared to 70.2% in the prior year period.

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the third quarter of 2014 were $85.1 million compared to $71.0 million in the prior year period. R&D expenses included $14.6 million and $9.6 million of non-cash stock compensation expense in the third quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively. Excluding these charges and contingent compensation, R&D expenses as a percentage of revenue were 14.6% compared to 17.2% in the prior year period.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the third quarter of 2014 were $119.9 million compared to $95.6 million in the prior year period. SG&A expenses included $27.2 million and $16.1 million of non-cash stock compensation expense in the third quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively. Excluding these charges, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and contingent compensation, SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue were 19.0% compared to 20.6% in the prior year period.

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $26.7 million and capital expenditures were $28.8 million during the third quarter of 2014. The Company ended the third quarter of 2014 with $1.27 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, compared to $1.17 billion as of December 29, 2013.

“Illumina experienced tremendous momentum in the third quarter, with strong shipments in HiSeq X, NextSeq and MiSeq, as well as the associated consumables, resulting in record financial results,” stated Jay Flatley, CEO. “With the most extensive sequencing portfolio available, we are well-positioned for continued long-term growth as we develop and address the large and untapped market opportunities ahead of us.”

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.

As a result of strong year-to-date results, the Company has increased its full year 2014 guidance to revenue growth of approximately 30% year-over-year and non-GAAP earnings per fully diluted share of $2.63 to $2.65.

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 related to stock compensation expense, legal contingencies, amortization of acquired intangible assets, non-cash interest expense associated with the Company’s convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash, acquisition related expense, and others that are listed in the itemized reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release. Per share amounts also include, through the first quarter of 2014, the double dilution associated with the accounting treatment of the Company’s 0.625% convertible senior notes and the corresponding call option overlay. Management believes that presentation of operating results that excludes these items and per share double dilution provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company’s core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. Management also believes that this supplemental non-GAAP information is therefore useful to investors in analyzing and assessing the Company’s past and future operating performance.

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.

Net cash used in financing activities reflects the excess tax benefit as a corresponding in-flow in the respective periods.

 

(b) 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.

Weighted average shares used in calculation of GAAP diluted net income per share 147,512 140,601 149,084 138,630
Weighted average dilutive potential common shares issuable of redeemable convertible senior notes (a)       (1,028 )   (216 )   (1,051 )

(a) Pro forma impact of weighted average shares includes the impact of double dilution associated with the accounting treatment of the Company’s outstanding convertible debt and the corresponding call option overlay.

 

(b) Legal contingencies represent charges recorded based on estimated damages for patent litigations, including a judgment associated with the patent litigation brought by Syntrix Biosystems, Inc., or Syntrix. Illumina continues to believe that Syntrix’s claims are without merit and are not supported by the law or facts. Accordingly, on December 3, 2013, Illumina filed an appeal to the court challenging the judgment.

 

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

 

(d) Acquisition related expense (gain), net consists primarily of net gains from changes in fair value of contingent consideration and transaction related costs.

 

(e) Headquarter relocation for the first three quarters of 2014 consisted of accretion of interest expense on lease exit liability and changes in estimates of such liability. Headquarter relocation for the first three quarters of 2013 included a Q2 gain on lease exit liability as a result of a change in estimate, offset by accretion of interest expense on such liability.

 

(f) Contingent compensation expense relates to contingent payments for post-combination services associated with prior period acquisitions.

 

(g) The Company recorded $0.5 million in cost of goods sold in Q1 2013 for the amortization of inventory revaluation costs in conjunction with the acquisition of Verinata Health, Inc.

 

(h) Incremental non-GAAP tax expense reflects the tax impact related to the non-GAAP adjustments listed above.

 

(i) Non-GAAP net income and diluted net income per share exclude the effect of the pro forma adjustments as detailed above. Non-GAAP net income and diluted net income per share are key drivers of our core operating performance and major factors in management’s bonus compensation each year. Management has excluded the effects of these items in these measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing our past and future core operating performance.

(a) Legal contingencies represent charges recorded based on estimated damages for patent litigations, including a judgment associated with the patent litigation brought by Syntrix Biosystems, Inc., or Syntrix. Illumina continues to believe that Syntrix’s claims are without merit and are not supported by the law or facts. Accordingly, on December 3, 2013, Illumina filed an appeal to the court challenging the judgment.

 

(b) The Company recorded $0.5 million in cost of goods sold in Q1 2013 for the amortization of inventory revaluation costs in conjunction with the acquisition of Verinata Health, Inc.

 

(c) 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 the Company’s products and services. Non-GAAP operating profit, 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 core operating performance.

 

(d) Contingent compensation expense relates to contingent payments for post-combination services associated with prior period acquisitions.

 

(e) Acquisition related expense (gain), net consists primarily of net gains from changes in fair value of contingent consideration and transaction related costs.

 

(f) Headquarter relocation for the first three quarters of 2014 consisted of accretion of interest expense on lease exit liability and changes in estimates of such liability. Headquarter relocation for the first three quarters of 2013 included a Q2 gain on lease exit liability as a result of a change in estimate, offset by accretion of interest expense on such liability.

 

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