Illumina rises after China lifts export ban, Evercore sees growth in FY26

ReutersNov 5, 2025 4:47 PM

Shares of gene sequencing company Illumina ILMN.O rise 4.7% to $122.3

China lifted its export ban on Illumina instruments, domestic firms can apply to resume transactions with Illumina, subject to review and compliance, Evercore ISI says

The ban followed Illumina's addition to China's "unreliable entities" list earlier this year; the latest move removes that restriction for several U.S. firms

Evercore ISI notes Illumina's China revenue peaked at $502 million in 2021 and has fallen since

With the ban now lifted, Evercore ISI expects that, even assuming flat China sales, Illumina is positioned to show positive reported organic growth in FY26

The brokerage says that while investors still watch Roche's ROG.S entry into the market, it believes "the worst might be behind us"

As of last close, ILMN stock was down 8.9% YTD
