Across its business, the company said that sales from its QuantiFERON blood test kit have dropped amid the decline in immigration testing demand in the US and the Middle East. Sales from QIAstat-Dx diagnostics also dipped 1 percent, as expected, amid tough results last year.

Following the trends, Qiagen NV (NYSE:QGEN) lowered its net sales growth outlook for full-year 2026 to a range of 1 to 2 percent, versus 5 percent previously, amid the lingering uncertainties in the Middle East. Adjusted EPS was also decreased to $2.43 from $2.50 prior.
