Company Report

Qiagen Still Pushing for Higher Growth Than Its End Markets

Qiagen aims to help scientists and caregivers use biological samples to identify and solve problems related to DNA, RNA, and proteins, which should remain in high demand even after the pandemic, albeit probably at a reset rate following that unique event. Qiagen's roots are in products that help scientists prepare biological samples for various experiments, and sample preparation products account for nearly 35% of sales. Qiagen remains a key leader in this niche, and we expect Qiagen to continue to invest to maintain or improve in that business in the long run.
