Revenue of $1.16 billion for Q2 2022, up 3% from Q2 2021, and up 5% on a constant currency basis
GAAP diluted loss per share of $(3.40) for Q2 2022, compared to GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.26 for Q2 2021; GAAP diluted loss per share for Q2 2022 includes $609 million in legal contingencies
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.57 for Q2 2022, compared to non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.87 for Q2 2021
Expect full year revenue for fiscal year 2022 to grow 4% to 5% from fiscal year 2021, primarily reflecting the ongoing negative impact of foreign exchange rates, customer lab expansion delays, and macroeconomic-driven conservatism around immediate capital and inventory commitments, including in Greater China
Expect GAAP diluted loss per share of $(2.93) to $(2.78) for fiscal year 2022
Expect non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $2.75 to $2.90 for fiscal year 2022
SAN DIEGO, Aug. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Illumina, Inc. (Nasdaq: ILMN) today announced its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, which include consolidated financial results for GRAIL.
"Our second quarter results did not meet our expectations as challenges in a complex macroeconomic environment more than offset the growth we continue to see in sequencing runs on our platforms," said Francis deSouza, Chief Executive Officer. "As we strategically navigate these dynamics, we continue to advance our innovation roadmap in support of our long-term growth trajectory. At our upcoming Illumina Genomics Forum and Investor Day events, we look forward to showcasing our breakthrough technologies that demonstrate the power and potential of genomics."
Second quarter consolidated results
During the second quarter of 2022, Illumina recognized $609 million in legal contingencies, including an accrual of $453 million, recorded in Q2 2022, for the potential fine that the European Commission may impose of up to 10% of our consolidated annual revenues and an estimated accrual of $156 million, also recorded in Q2 2022, related to the settlement of our litigation with BGI in July 2022.
Capital expenditures for free cash flow purposes were $71 million during the second quarter of 2022. Cash flow from operations was $125 million, compared to $253 million in the prior year period, with the year-over-year decrease primarily attributable to GRAIL's operating loss. Free cash flow (cash flow used in operations less capital expenditures) was $54 million for the quarter, compared to $209 million in the prior year. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $93 million during the second quarter of 2022. At the close of the quarter, the company held $1,327 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, compared to $1,339 million as of January 2, 2022.
Second quarter segment results
Following the acquisition of GRAIL on August 18, 2021, Illumina has two reportable segments, Core Illumina and GRAIL. GRAIL financial results are reflected for the period after the acquisition.

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, including our Core Illumina and GRAIL segments. Please see our Reconciliation of Consolidated Non-GAAP Financial Guidance included in this release for a reconciliation of these GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures.
For fiscal 2022, the company now expects consolidated revenue growth in the range of 4% to 5%. We now expect GAAP diluted loss per share of $(2.93) to $(2.78) and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $2.75 to $2.90. The GAAP and non-GAAP diluted (loss) earnings per share guidance ranges continue to assume that the R&D expense capitalization requirement implemented by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 will be repealed or deferred in the fourth quarter of 2022. If the R&D expense capitalization requirement is not repealed or deferred in 2022, the company's tax expense will be negatively impacted.
Core Illumina revenue growth is now expected to be in the range of 3.5% to 4.5%. GRAIL revenue is now expected to be in the range of $50 million to $70 million.

Statement regarding use of non-GAAP financial measures
The company reports non-GAAP results for diluted earnings per share, net income, gross margin, operating expenses, including research and development expense, selling general and administrative expense and legal contingencies, operating income (loss), operating margin, gross profit, other income (expense), constant currency revenue growth, and free cash flow (on a consolidated and, as applicable, segment basis for our Core Illumina and GRAIL segments) 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 such as amortization of acquired intangible assets among others that are listed in the itemized reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release, as well as the effects of currency translation. Management has excluded the effects of these items in non-GAAP measures to assist investors in analyzing and assessing past and future operating performance, including in the non-GAAP measures related to our Core Illumina and GRAIL segments. Additionally, non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share are key components of the financial metrics utilized by the company's board of directors to measure, in part, management's performance and determine significant elements of management's compensation.
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.
