Global medical technology company Hologic has reported a revenue of 1.02bn for the second quarter (Q2) ended 1 April 2023.

The company witnessed a 28.5% decline in revenue compared to $1.43bn during Q2 (three-month period ended 26 March) of fiscal 2022.

The fall in revenue was mainly attributed to significantly lower sales of COVID-19 assays, compared to the same period a year ago.

The company’s total organic revenue, excluding Covid-19 revenue, grew by 20.2% during Q2 2023, compared to the prior year period.

Gross margin declined by 880 basis points (bps) to 57.1% from 65.9% in Q2 2022, while operating margin decreased by 1,490bps to 26.5%.

During the quarter, the diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $0.87 against $1.8 in the corresponding period in 2022.
