On October 10, 2016, Illumina issued a press release entitled "Illumina Announces Preliminary Revenue for Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2016."  In the press release, the Company announced estimated third quarter revenue of approximately $607 million, which was lower than the Company's third quarter revenue guidance in the range of $625 million to $630 million.  The Company attributed the shortfall to "larger than anticipated year-over-year decline in high throughput sequencing instruments."  Illumina concurrently announced that it expected fourth quarter revenue to be flat to slightly up sequentially. 

On this news, Illumina's share price fell $45.86, or 24.8%, to close at $138.99 on October 11, 2016.
