Quidel Corporation (NASDAQ: QDEL) ("Quidel"), a provider of rapid diagnostic testing solutions, cellular-based virology assays and molecular diagnostic systems, announced today that it expects total revenues in the fourth quarter of 2021 to be in the range of $633 million to $637 million and full year total revenues to be in the range of $1,695 million to $1,699 million. COVID-19 revenues in the fourth quarter of 2021 are expected to be approximately $510 million.
"The fourth quarter of 2021 put the final exclamation point on a truly outstanding and transformational year for Quidel," said Douglas Bryant, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quidel. "From the opening of our largest American immunoassay manufacturing facility to date in just nine months, to shipping nearly 77 million total rapid immunoassay tests in the quarter, to announcing our definitive agreement to acquire Ortho Clinical Diagnostics Holdings plc ("Ortho"), Quidel emerged from a challenging year with the strongest portfolio of physical, financial, and intellectual assets in our history. Quidel has never been more capable, more consequential or more committed than we are today – which only fuels our confidence for the successes ahead."
Mr. Bryant added, "We’ve always believed that rapid tests are critical for both peace of mind and improved public health. That’s why we never wavered in our drive to maximize test development and manufacturing capacity, which proved to be the right decision with the rise of both Delta and Omicron variants. In the fourth quarter of 2021, we sold approximately 65 million QuickVue® COVID-19 antigen tests and over 4 million Sofia® SARS antigen tests – the highest quarterly sales volume for tests for Quidel. We continue to work diligently to meet demand from government, retail, employers and distributors for our QuickVue At-Home OTC COVID-19 test. We’ve also expanded our installed base of Sofia analyzers to over 76,000 instrument placements, further broadening our footprint at the point of care and increasing opportunities in the professional setting to introduce our full portfolio of assays to patients and providers."
