ILMN

Over the past six months, Illumina's stock price increased by 12.79% in the last month and 143.83% over the last 12 months, reaching a new 52-week high. A significant event was its inclusion in the S&P 500 index, effective September 21, 2026, which boosted demand. The Q2 2026 earnings report on July 30, 2026, showed strong results with revenue of $1.16 billion (up 9.5% year-over-year) and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $1.31, exceeding estimates, leading management to raise full-year guidance. Despite positive earnings, the stock initially dipped, followed by notable insider selling, with Director Keith A. Meister disposing of over $255 million in shares since early August 2026.
