CHELMSFORD, Mass., July 13, 2022 (PRNewswire) – Azenta, Inc. (Nasdaq: AZTA) today reported preliminary results for its third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022.
The Company expects revenue of approximately $133 million, an increase of 3% compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Year-over-year organic growth is expected to be 6%, after adjusting for approximately 3 percentage points of currency impact. GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations is expected to be in the range of ($0.13) to ($0.08), driven lower than expected primarily due to income taxes. Non-GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $0.08 to $0.12.
Revenue for the Services segment is expected to be approximately $85 million, up 6% year over year. Within the Services segment, Genomic Services revenue grew approximately 1% year over year, reflecting lower demand than expected. Sample Repository Solutions remained strong with estimated revenue growth of 19% year over year.
Revenue for the Products segment is expected to be approximately $47 million, down 3% year over year. Within the Products segment, the Consumables and Instruments (C&I) business experienced lower demand than expected with an estimated 18% decline year over year. The balance of the Products segment revenue grew approximately 23% supported by strong double-digit growth in each area of large systems, cryogenic systems, and product services.
“Revenue in the third quarter reflects currency headwinds and softness in the highly transactional businesses of Genomics Services and C&I, while other areas of the portfolio remained on track as evidenced by the strength in ultra-cold automation and Sample Repository Solutions,” stated Steve Schwartz, President and CEO.
