OTHER INFORMATION
On July 31, 2018, QIAGEN N.V. (NYSE: QGEN; Frankfurt, Prime Standard: QIA) issued a press release announcing its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
QIAGEN has regularly reported adjusted results, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures, to give additional insight into our financial performance as a supplement to understand, manage, and evaluate our business results and make operating decisions. We also use the adjusted results when comparing to our historical operating results, which have consistently been presented on an adjusted basis.
Adjusted results should be considered in addition to the reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, but should not be considered as a substitute. Reconciliations of reported results to adjusted results are included in the tables accompanying the press release. We believe certain items should be excluded from adjusted results when they are outside of our ongoing core operations, vary significantly from period to period, or affect the comparability of results with the Company’s competitors and our own prior periods.
The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are non-GAAP net sales, gross profit, operating income, pre-tax income, net income and diluted earnings per share. These adjusted results exclude costs related to business integration, acquisition and restructuring related items, amortization of acquired intangible assets, non-cash interest expense charges as well as other special income and expense items. Management views these costs as not indicative of the profitability or cash flows of our ongoing or future operations and therefore considers the adjusted results as a supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, the reported GAAP results.
We use a measure of free cash flow to estimate the cash flow remaining after purchases of property, plant and equipment as required to maintain or expand our business. This measure provides us with supplemental information to assess our liquidity needs. We calculate free cash flow as net cash from operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment.
We also consider results on a constant currency basis. Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar and our subsidiaries’ functional currencies are the local currency of the respective countries in which they are headquartered. A significant portion of our revenues and expenses is denominated in euros and currencies other than the United States dollar. Management believes that analysis of constant currency period-over-period changes is useful because changes in exchange rates can affect the growth rate of net sales and expenses, potentially to a significant degree. Constant currency figures are calculated by translating the local currency actual results in the current period using the average exchange rates from the previous year’s respective period instead of the current period.
We use non-GAAP and constant currency financial measures internally in our planning, forecasting and reporting, as well as to measure and compensate our employees. We do not reconcile forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections that are impacted by future decisions and actions. Accordingly, reconciliations of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable effort. However, the actual amounts of these excluded items will have a significant impact on QIAGEN’s GAAP results.

Net sales of $377.2 million (+8% actual, +6% at constant exchange rates, or CER) vs. 5-6% CER guidance
Operating income margin of 14% of sales; adjusted operating income margin rises to 27% of net sales, driven by 2.2 percentage points improvement at CER
EPS of $0.16; adjusted EPS $0.33 ($0.33 CER) vs. ~$0.31-0.32 CER guidance
Free cash flow rises 98% to $94.1 million
Advancing our Sample to Insight portfolio:
QuantiFERON latent TB test delivers solid double-digit CER growth; new international guidelines affirm the value of screening with modern blood test
QIAstat-Dx receives very positive customer response in Europe as next-generation syndromic testing platform
NGS-related sales set to achieve 2018 target for more than $140 million on growth from GeneReader NGS System and platform-agnostic solutions
QIAGEN reaffirms 2018 outlook for growth in net sales and adjusted EPS
Venlo, the Netherlands, July 31, 2018 - QIAGEN N.V. (NYSE: QGEN; Frankfurt Prime Standard: QIA) announced results of operations for the second quarter and first half of 2018, delivering on the target for net sales growth and exceeding on adjusted earnings per share while driving the expansion of its Sample to Insight portfolio of molecular testing solutions.
“Our results for the second quarter of 2018 demonstrated a solid performance and further progress toward our goals for an exciting year of growth,” said Peer M. Schatz, Chief Executive Officer of QIAGEN N.V. “We are on track to achieve our targets for higher sales and adjusted earnings while building momentum across our Sample to Insight portfolio and creating value for our customers and stakeholders.”
“All regions contributed to growth in the second quarter, led by 10% growth at constant exchange rates in the Americas region. Among the customer classes, Molecular Diagnostics advanced 10% CER thanks to continued strong growth of the QuantiFERON latent TB test at a 20% CER growth rate, dynamic gains in Personalized Healthcare on revenues from companion diagnostic co-development projects with pharmaceutical companies, and robust placements of the QIAsymphony flagship automation platform along with double-digit CER growth in related consumables. Our next-generation sequencing portfolio, which is set to represent about 10% of total sales in 2018, also continued to grow at a double-digit CER rate as we address the needs of customers for universal solutions as well as for a complete NGS workflow for gene panel testing with the GeneReader NGS System. We were also pleased with the Academia and Pharma customer classes maintaining good momentum, while sales in Applied Testing were impacted by the divestment of a portfolio of veterinary testing products in early 2018. We were

particularly pleased with the very positive customer response to the European launch of QIAstat-Dx. Our next-generation platform is being recognized for delivering accurate syndromic insights, and we look forward to expanding the test menu and entering new geographic markets. QIAGEN is well-positioned to achieve the goals set for 2018 and make further progress on the mid-term targets set for 2020.”

Second quarter 2018 results
Total net sales grew 8% at actual rates to $377.2 million in the second quarter of 2018 over the year-ago period, representing 6% growth at constant exchange rates plus two percentage points from positive currency movements against the U.S. dollar. Organic sales, which excludes business portfolio changes in both periods and acquisition contributions for the first 12 months, grew at a slightly faster pace at CER than overall sales. QIAstat-Dx sales were not meaningful in the second quarter of 2018, the period in which STAT-Dx (April 27,2018) was acquired. (As previously announced, QIAGEN expects about $7 million of sales from this launch the second half of 2018.)
Improving trends for both consumables and related revenues (+6% CER) and instruments (+7% CER) supported the performance in the second quarter of 2018. Among the customer classes, Molecular Diagnostics (+10% CER) advanced on double-digit CER gains for the QuantiFERON-TB test and solid growth in Personalized Healthcare, which was primarily due to higher revenues from companion diagnostic co-development projects. Applied Testing (-3% CER) sales declined due mainly to the divestment of the veterinary testing business in early 2018, but rose at a modest single-digit CER rate on an underlying basis. Pharma (+4% CER) benefited from single-digit CER growth in consumables amid flat instrument sales, while Academia (+4% CER) grew on a combination of higher sales of instruments and consumables.
Operating income was $53.3 million in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $22.4 million in the same period of 2017. Adjusted operating income - which excludes restructuring and other items such as business integration, acquisition-related costs, litigation costs and the amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations - rose 15% to $101.0 million compared to $88.0 million in the year-ago period. The adjusted operating income margin rose to 27% of sales in the 2018 quarter compared to 25% in the same period of 2017, with results in 2018 supported by an adjusted gross margin of 71.5% of sales as well as the positive impact of efficiency programs launched during 2017.
Net income was $36.8 million, or $0.16 per diluted share (based on 233.8 diluted shares) compared to $14.0 million, or $0.06 per share (based on 232.7 million diluted shares) in the second quarter of 2017. Adjusted net income was $77.2 million, or $0.33 per share ($0.33 CER), compared to $68.7 million, or $0.30, in the year-ago period, with an adjusted tax rate of 20% in the second quarter of 2018 compared to 17% in the year-ago period.
First half 2018 results
Total net sales grew 10% at actual rates to $720.8 million in the first half of 2018 over the year-ago period, representing 6% growth at constant exchange rates plus four percentage points due to positive currency movements against the U.S. dollar. Organic sales, which excludes business portfolio changes in both periods

8


and acquisition contributions for the first 12 months, grew at a slightly faster pace at CER. No meaningful acquisition revenues were recorded in the first half of 2018.
Operating income was $101.3 million in the first half of 2018 compared to $46.1 million in the same period of 2017. Adjusted operating income - which excludes restructuring and other items such as business integration, acquisition-related costs, litigation costs and the amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations - grew 17% to $178.3 million compared to $151.8 million in the year-ago period. The adjusted operating income margin rose to 25% of adjusted net sales in the first half of 2018 compared to 23% in the same period of 2017.
Net income was $69.1 million, or $0.30 per diluted share (based on 233.2 million diluted shares) compared to $31.6 million, or $0.14 per share (based on 233.8 million diluted shares) in the first half of 2017. Adjusted net income was $136.8 million, or $0.59 per share ($0.58 CER), compared to $119.5 million, or $0.51, in the year-ago period, with an adjusted tax rate of 20% in the first half of 2018 compared to 17% in the year-ago period.
Balance sheet and cash flows
At June 30, 2018, cash and cash equivalents increased to $674.4 million from $657.7 million at December 31, 2017. Net cash provided by operating activities was $166.2 million in the first six months of 2018, up from $129.5 million in the year-ago period, primarily due to the increase in net income during the first half of 2018, partially offset by $30.0 million of prepaid royalties in 2018 for the Natera partnership. Free cash flow for the first half of 2018 was $123.4 million, up from $91.6 million in the prior-year period, with purchases of Property, Plant and Equipment rising to $42.9 million in the first six months of 2018 from $37.9 million in 2017. Net cash used in investing activities was $120.5 million in the first six months of 2018, which included cash payments for acquisitions (net of cash acquired), compared to $79.5 million in the year-ago period. Net cash used in financing activities was $25.4 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $48.3 million in the first six months of 2017, which included $300.2 million of cash proceeds from the issuance of a German private placement ("Schuldschein") as well as $244 million of cash used for the capital repayment.
“While QIAGEN continued to demonstrate solid sales growth, our results also showed a significant gain of about 220 basis points in the adjusted operating income margin at constant exchange rates. This increase highlights the impact of our programs and initiatives to further improve our efficiency and effectiveness,” said Roland Sackers, Chief Financial Officer of QIAGEN N.V. “Our strong financial position, underpinned by our healthy balance sheet and increasing free cash flow, provides us with strategic flexibility to strengthen our businesses through targeted operational investments and acquisitions while improving returns to shareholders. We are also committed to returning $200 million through the current share repurchase program.”
Sustaining growth trajectory with Sample to Insight portfolio
QIAGEN is focused on growth opportunities for its Sample to Insight portfolio across the continuum of molecular testing from basic research to clinical healthcare. Among recent developments:
QuantiFERON-TB, QIAGEN’s gold-standard blood test for latent tuberculosis (TB) infection, continues to grow rapidly as authorities embrace screening with interferon gamma release assays (IGRAs), such as QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus (QFT-Plus), as a more accurate and cost-efficient alternative to tuberculin skin tests. The World Health Organization (WHO) recently added IGRAs to its Essential Diagnostics List. Additionally, The United Nations’ International Organization for Migration (IOM), which provides healthcare to millions of displaced persons, selected QFT-Plus as

9


its blood test for detection of this bacterial infection. Also in the second quarter of 2018, new guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended screening at-risk children as young as age two for latent TB infection, lowering the threshold from the previous level at age five. QIAGEN is also enhancing automation to make screening even more efficient and scalable through a new collaboration announced in July 2018 with Hamilton Robotics for pre-analytic workflows as a complement to plans to begin offering kits in Europe to enable the analysis of QFT-Plus on DiaSorin’s LIAISON-family of analyzers later this year.
QIAstat-Dx is off to a successful start in Europe and rapidly gaining recognition as the next-generation platform to provide insights into complex disease syndromes. The first two QIAstat-Dx tests are now launched in Europe, delivering sample to insight processing of extensive PCR (polymerase chain reaction) panels to evaluate respiratory and gastrointestinal syndromes. In June, QIAGEN also exhibited the QIAstat-Dx platform at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2018 Annual Meeting for its potential for rapid interrogation of key oncology targets. Teams are also working as planned toward the U.S. regulatory submission of this system, along with the respiratory and gastrointestinal panel tests, for launch in 2019. A deep menu of additional tests is in development.
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) represents a rapidly growing portfolio at QIAGEN, with a target for more than $140 million of sales in 2018 compared to more than $115 million of sales in 2017. At the ASCO 2018 Annual Meeting, scientific studies highlighted QIAGEN’s liquid biopsy and tissue biopsy solutions on the GeneReader NGS System. The utility of this System was also expanded to offer the first complete Sample to Insight workflow for a range of hereditary diseases, with customizable target enrichment panels and integrated bioinformatics. Also during the second quarter, researchers at the Mayo Clinic in the U.S. published an important study in the Journal of the American Medical Association on the large-scale use of custom QIAseq panels to demonstrate associations between pancreatic cancer and inherited mutations in six genes.
In Personalized Healthcare, QIAGEN announced a partnership with Freenome, a leader in artificial intelligence solutions for genomics, to accelerate the development of companion diagnostics using NGS technologies in immuno-oncology in collaboration with pharma companies. QIAGEN is also accelerating the commercialization of solutions in this area, rolling out a Day-One Lab Readiness initiative with SRL, Inc., the largest clinical testing laboratory company in Japan to prepare for the introduction of new companion diagnostics simultaneous with new drug approvals in the country.
Differentiated technologies are solutions designed to leverage QIAGEN’s global leadership in sample processing and assays. A key area involves developing industry-leading advances for microbiome research, a fast-growing field with promise for improving health and the environment. In the second quarter, QIAGEN launched the DNeasy PowerSoil Pro Kit worldwide as the next generation of solutions for extraction of fungal and bacterial DNA from a range of soil samples. QIAGEN also introduced QIAseq 16S/ITS Panels for NGS, along with the UCP Multiplex PCR Kit, to give scientists the most complete, unbiased microbiome profiles available, with the aim of enhancing the scientific understanding of microbial communities.
Update on share repurchase program
During the second quarter of 2018, QIAGEN started a $50 million tranche of the $200 million share repurchase program announced in January 2018. As of July 27, 2018, a total of 1.1 million shares have been repurchased on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange at a volume-weighted average price of EUR 30.04

10


per share for EUR 35.0 million (approximately $40.7 million). Further information is available on the QIAGEN website (www.qiagen.com).
Outlook
QIAGEN reaffirms its guidance for total net sales growth of about 6-7% CER for full-year 2018 based on the solid performance in the first half of the year. This guidance includes anticipated sales of about $7 million during the second half of 2018 from the acquisition of STAT-Dx (April 27, 2018), as well as about one percentage point of headwind from reduced U.S. HPV test sales compared to 2017. QIAGEN also continues to expect adjusted diluted EPS of about $1.31-1.33 CER for full-year 2018. Based on exchange rates as of July 30, 2018, currency movements for full-year 2018 against the U.S. dollar are expected to have a positive impact on 2018 net sales of up to about one percentage point, but a negative impact of up to about $0.01 per share on adjusted diluted EPS. These expectations do not consider any further acquisitions that could be completed in 2018.
For the third quarter of 2018, total net sales are expected to rise about 6% CER, which includes up to about one percentage point of incremental growth the acquisition of STAT-Dx and the launch of QIAstat-Dx. Adjusted diluted EPS are expected to be about $0.33-0.34 CER. Based on exchange rates as of July 30, 2018, currency movements against the U.S. dollar are expected to have a negative impact on net sales of about two percentage points, and a negative impact of up to about $0.01 per share on adjusted diluted EPS.
Quarterly results presentation, conference call and webcast details
A presentation with additional information can be downloaded at http://www.qiagen.com/de/about-us/investors/corporate-calendar/. A conference call will be held on Wednesday August 1, 2018, at 15:00 Central European Time (CET) / 14:00 GMT / 9:00 Eastern Standard Time (EST). A live webcast will be made available at this website, and a replay will also be made available after the event.
Use of adjusted results
QIAGEN reports adjusted results, as well as results on a constant exchange rate (CER) basis, and other non-U.S. GAAP figures (generally accepted accounting principles), to provide additional insight into its performance. These results include adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating income margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted tax rates and free cash flow. Adjusted results are non-GAAP financial measures that QIAGEN believes should be considered in addition to reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered as a substitute. Free cash flow is calculated by deducting capital expenditures for Property, Plant & Equipment from cash flow from operating activities. QIAGEN believes certain items should be excluded from adjusted results when they are outside of ongoing core operations, vary significantly from period to period, or affect the comparability of results with competitors and its own prior periods. Furthermore, QIAGEN uses non-GAAP and constant currency financial measures internally in planning, forecasting and reporting, as well as to measure and compensate employees. QIAGEN also uses adjusted results when comparing current performance to historical operating results, which have consistently been presented on an adjusted basis. Reconciliations are included in the tables accompanying this report.
