    Jan Koch's questions to Qiagen NV (QGEN) leadership • Q1 2025

    Question

    Jan Koch inquired about the expected growth trajectory for the Sample tech business given tougher comparisons and the potential for QuantiFERON in China, including whether the instrument installed base is sufficient for the opportunity.

    Answer

    CEO Thierry Bernard stated that high-value Sample tech applications like liquid biopsy are already seeing double-digit growth. He expressed confidence that the upcoming launch of three new instrument systems will enable the segment to return to its target of ~3% annual growth. Regarding China, he clarified that while QuantiFERON is a market leader there, China is not a top priority for the product's overall growth strategy, which is driven by strong global performance independent of that market.
