Illumina, Inc. (Nasdaq: ILMN) ("Illumina" or the "company") today announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, which include the consolidated financial results for GRAIL.
"While the environment remains challenging, I am confident in our ability to navigate it and position the company for long-term success," said Jacob Thaysen, Chief Executive Officer. "I came to Illumina for the opportunity presented by our core business. While I evaluate the company's strategy, we will remain focused on driving on further placements of the NovaSeq X, which will boost consumables demand. We will also continue optimizing our operations and drive stronger execution."
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.
