EL MONTE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Fulgent Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLGT) (“Fulgent,” or the “Company”), a technology-based company with a well-established laboratory services business and a therapeutic development business, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 Results:

• Revenue of $85.4 million
• GAAP loss of $29.5 million, or $(1.05) per share
• Non-GAAP loss of $16.2 million, or $(0.58) per share
• Adjusted EBITDA loss of $17.1 million

Non-GAAP income (loss), non-GAAP income (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA income (loss), non-GAAP gross profit and margin, and non-GAAP operating income (loss) and margin are described below under “Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, GAAP income (loss), GAAP gross profit and margin, and GAAP operating income (loss) and margin, in the accompanying tables.

Ming Hsieh, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, said, “In the second quarter, we had the honor of presenting the encouraging findings from Phase 2 data for FID-007 at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) meeting, and we are encouraged by our clinical trial progress for both FID-007 and FID-022. We continue to execute on our strategic initiatives in our laboratory services business as we expand our AI portfolio and integrate digital pathology and are seeing a real impact from our AI tools with improved efficiency and quality.”

Paul Kim, Chief Financial Officer, said, “We are revising our revenue guidance for the year as a result of processing delays impacting our collection rate related to the final phase of the transition of our revenue cycle management and billing system. We are working to remedy the issue and remain confident in the fundamental strength of our business.”

Outlook:

For the full year 2026, Fulgent now expects:

• Revenue to be in the range of $330.0-$340.0 million
• Non-GAAP loss of approximately $63.0-$67.0 million
• Non-GAAP loss of approximately $2.22-$2.35 per share, which includes the impact of a reduction of 4.1 million shares used for the stock repurchase program, year to date as of June 30, 2026
• Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and investments in marketable securities of approximately $610.0 million, which includes $63.9 million cash used for the stock repurchase program, year to date as of June 30, 2026*

*Cash expenditures may be higher or lower than currently estimated due to a variety of factors and circumstances, including as a result of the Company’s ongoing stock repurchase program, or other expenditures outside the ordinary course of business, including M&A. This number further assumes receipt of approximately $106.1 million in tax refunds prior to December 31, 2026, which have been delayed as a result of constrained resources at the IRS; and assumes capital purchases of $12 million, no further repurchases under the stock repurchase program, and spend on the therapeutic development business of $26 million. The timing and amount of any future repurchases pursuant to the stock repurchase program will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of Fulgent’s common stock, general market and economic conditions and other factors Fulgent’s board of directors may deem relevant.

Conference Call Information

Fulgent will host a conference call for the investment community today at 4:30 PM ET (1:30 PM PT) to discuss its second quarter 2026 results. The call may be accessed through a live audio webcast in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website, http://ir.fulgentgenetics.com. An audio replay will be available at the same location.

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain information set forth in this press release and/or to be discussed on the Company’s earnings call, including non-GAAP income (loss), non-GAAP income (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA income (loss), non-GAAP gross profit and margin, and non-GAAP operating income (loss) and margin, are non-GAAP financial measures. Fulgent believes this information is useful to investors because it provides a basis for measuring the performance of the Company’s business, excluding certain income or expense items that management believes are not directly attributable to the Company’s operating results. Fulgent defines non-GAAP income (loss) as net income (loss) calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, plus amortization of intangible assets, plus impairment loss, plus equity-based compensation expenses, plus acquisition-related costs, which include one-time banker fee, legal, valuation, due diligence, and closing costs, plus acquisition-related severance, plus or minus the non-GAAP tax effect, and plus or minus other charges or gains, as identified, that management believes are not representative of the Company’s operations. The non-GAAP tax effect was calculated by excluding from the GAAP provision the impact of the amortization of intangible assets, impairment loss, equity-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related costs, and acquisition-related severance. Fulgent defines adjusted EBITDA income (loss) as GAAP income (loss) plus or minus interest (expense) income, plus or minus provisions (benefits) for income taxes, plus depreciation and amortization, plus equity-based compensation expenses, plus insurance expense related to transferable tax credit, plus impairment loss, plus acquisition-related costs, plus acquisition-related severance, and plus or minus other charges or gains, as identified, that management believes are not representative of the Company’s operations. Fulgent defines non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit calculated in accordance with GAAP plus equity-based compensation included in cost of revenue as shown in the table below. Fulgent defines non-GAAP gross margin by taking non-GAAP gross profit and dividing it by GAAP revenue. Fulgent defines non-GAAP operating profit (loss) by taking GAAP operating profit (loss) and adding equity-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets, acquisition-related costs, and acquisition-related severance. Non-GAAP operating margin is calculated by taking non-GAAP operating profit (loss) and dividing it by GAAP revenue. Fulgent may continue to incur expenses similar to the items added to or subtracted from the GAAP financial measures, and, accordingly, the exclusion of these items in the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an implication that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in evaluating the Company’s operating performance and for internal planning and budgeting. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in conformity with GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures as reported by Fulgent may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics reported by other companies. The Company does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures because the information necessary to calculate such reconciliations is unavailable on a forward‑looking basis without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amounts of items that would be included in the GAAP measures, including, but not limited to, equity‑based compensation, tax effects, acquisition‑related items, and potential impairments, any of which could be material. The Company is also unable to predict the probable significance of such items.
