In addition, Reblozyl received expanded approval to include the first-line treatment of adult patients with transfusion-dependent anemia due to very low, low and intermediate-risk myelodysplastic syndromes in the EU and Japan. In oncology, we received (i) accelerated approval in the U.S. of Krazati in combination with cetuximab as a targeted treatment option for adult patients with KRAS G12C-mutated locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer; (ii) approval in the U.S. of Augtyro for the treatment of patients with NTRK-positive locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors; and (iii) both in the U.S. and EU, approval of Opdivo in combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine for first-line treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma. Refer to "—Product and Pipeline Developments" for additional updates on our pipeline.

Current wording

In September 2024, we received FDA approval for Cobenfy(xanomeline and trospium chloride), formerly known as KarXT, for the treatment of schizophrenia in adults, re-establishing our presence in neuroscience. Cobenfy represents the first new pharmacological approach to treat schizophrenia in decades, with a mechanism of action distinct from current therapies. Registrational studies are planned for Cobenfy in Adjunctive Schizophrenia, Alzheimer's Psychosis, Alzheimer's Agitation, Alzheimer's Cognition, Bipolar I Disorder and autism spectrum disorder irritability. In addition, year-to-date, we have achieved significant advances in CAR-T cell therapy with the approval of Breyanzi in the U.S. and Japan for adults with relapsed or refractory FL and in the U.S. for adults with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL and MCL; and Abecma in the U.S. and EU for triple-class exposed relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma after two or more prior lines of therapy. Furthermore, Reblozyl received expanded approval to include the first-line treatment of adult patients with transfusion-dependent anemia due to very low, low and intermediate-risk MDS in the EU and Japan. In oncology, we continue making advancements with (i) FDA approval of Opdivo for the treatment of adult patients with resectable NSCLC, in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy, followed by single-agent Opdivo as adjuvant treatment after surgery; (ii) accelerated approval in the U.S. of Krazati in combination with cetuximab, for the treatment of adult patients with KRAS G12C-mutated locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer; (iii) approval in the U.S. of Augtyro for the treatment of patients with NTRK-positive locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors; (iv) approval in Japan of Augtyro for the treatment of patients with ROS1 fusion-positive, unresectable advanced or recurrent NSCLC; and (v) both in the U.S. and EU, approval of Opdivo in combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine for first-line treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma.

Previous wording

We remain committed to the strategic allocation of resources and investing in areas that maximize value and drive sustainable growth. In the first half of 2024, we began to execute a strategic productivity initiative that will drive approximately $1.5 billion in annual cost savings by the end of 2025, the majority of which are expected to be reinvested to fund innovation and drive growth. As a result, we are focusing resources on R&D programs with the potential to deliver the greatest return on investment, prioritizing investments in key growth brands, and optimizing operations across the organization. The exit costs resulting from these actions are included in our updated 2023 Restructuring Plan.

Previous wording

Revenues increased by 9% during the second quarter of 2024 and 7% year-to-date due to the Growth Portfolio and Eliquis, partially offset by Revlimid.

Current wording

Revenues increased by 8% during the third quarter of 2024 and 7% year-to-date due to the Growth Portfolio and Eliquis, partially offset by Spryceldue to generic erosion. Year-to-date was also partially offset by Revlimid.

Previous wording

The $7.11 decrease in GAAP EPS year-to-date was primarily driven by higher one-time Acquired IPRD charges primarily from the Karuna asset acquisition and SystImmune collaboration ($6.29) and the impact of certain specified items, including intangible asset impairments, as well as the cash settlement of unvested stock awards. After adjusting for specified items, the $6.13 decrease in non-GAAP EPS was primarily due to the above mentioned Acquired IPRD charges, higher interest expense resulting from the recent acquisitions and lower royalty income, partially offset by higher revenues.

Current wording

The $7.44 decrease in GAAP EPS year-to-date was primarily driven by higher one-time Acquired IPRD charges primarily from the Karuna asset acquisition and SystImmune collaboration ($6.28) and the impact of certain specified items, including intangible asset impairments, as well as the cash settlement of unvested stock awards, partially offset by higher revenues. After adjusting for specified items, the $6.33 decrease in non-GAAP EPS year-to-date was primarily due to the aforementioned Acquired IPRD charges, partially offset by higher revenues.

Previous wording

Our products continue to be subject to increasing pressures across the portfolio from pharmaceutical market access and pricing controls and discounting, changes to tax and importation laws and other restrictions in the U.S., the EU and other regions around the world that result in lower prices, lower reimbursement rates and smaller populations for whom payers will reimburse, which can negatively impact our results of operations (including intangible asset impairment charges), operating cash flow, liquidity and financial flexibility. The IRA directs (i) the federal government to “negotiate” prices for select high-cost Medicare Part D (beginning in 2026) and Part B (beginning in 2028) drugs that are more than nine years (for small-molecule drugs) or 13 years (for biological products) from their FDA approval, (ii) manufacturers to pay a rebate for Medicare Part B and Part D drugs when prices increase faster than inflation and (iii) Medicare Part D redesign replacing the current Part D CGDP and establishes a $2,000 cap for out-of-pocket costs for Medicare beneficiaries beginning in 2025, with manufacturers being responsible for 10% of costs up to the $2,000 cap and 20% after that cap is reached. In August 2023, Eliquis was selected as one of the first 10 medicines subject to "negotiation" for government-set prices beginning in 2026, and it is possible that more of our products could be selected in future years, which could, among other things, accelerate revenue erosion prior to expiry of intellectual property protections.

Current wording

As regulators continue to focus on prescription drugs, our products are facing increased pressures across the portfolio. These pressures stem from legislative and policy changes, including price controls, pharmaceutical market access, discounting, changes to tax and importation laws and other restrictions in the U.S., EU and other regions around the world. These pressures have resulted in lower prices, lower reimbursement rates and smaller populations for whom payers will reimburse, which can negatively impact our results of operations (including intangible asset impairment charges), operating cash flow, liquidity and financial flexibility. The IRA directs (i) the federal government to “negotiate” prices for select high-cost Medicare Part D (beginning in 2026) and Part B (beginning in 2028) drugs that are more than nine years (for small-molecule drugs) or 13 years (for biological products) from their FDA approval, (ii) manufacturers to pay a rebate for Medicare Part B and Part D drugs when prices increase faster than inflation and (iii) Medicare Part D redesign replacing the current Part D CGDP and establishes a $2,000 cap for out-of-pocket costs for Medicare beneficiaries beginning in 2025, with manufacturers being responsible for 10% of costs up to the $2,000 cap and 20% after that cap is reached. In August 2024, as part of the first round of government price setting pursuant to the IRA, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced the "maximum fair price" for a 30-day equivalent supply of Eliquis, which applies to the U.S. Medicare channel effective January 1, 2026. It is possible that more of our products could be selected in future years, which could, among other things, accelerate revenue erosion prior to expiry of intellectual property protections. We continue to evaluate the impact of the IRA on our results of operations and it is possible that these changes may result in a material impact on our business and results of operations.

Previous wording

In addition, in December 2023, the Biden Administration released a proposed framework that for the first time proposed that a drug’s price can be a factor in determining that the drug is not accessible to the public and therefore that the government could exercise “march-in rights” and license it to a third party to manufacture. We cannot predict whether a final rule will be adopted along the lines proposed and, if adopted, whether the government would seek to exercise march-in rights for any of our products. Other proposals and potential executive orders focused on drug pricing remain possible. The effect of reducing prices and reimbursement for certain of our products would significantly impact our business and consolidated results of operations.

We cannot predict whether the Biden Administration will finalize the Draft Interagency Guidance Framework for Considering the Exercise of March-In Rights or if the government will propose other drug pricing policy changes. If pursued and finalized, these policies could reduce prices and reimbursement for certain of our products and could significantly impact our business and consolidated results of operations.

Previous wording

At the state level, multiple states have passed, are pursuing or are considering government actions, legislation or proposals to change drug pricing and reimbursement (e.g., establishing prescription drug affordability boards, implementing manufacturer mandates tied to the Federal Public Health Service drug pricing program, etc.). Some of these state-level government actions, legislation and proposals may also influence federal and other state policies and legislation. Given the current uncertainty surrounding the adoption, timing and implementation of many of these measures, as well as pending litigation challenging such laws, we are unable to predict their full impact on our business. However, such measures could modify or decrease access, coverage, or reimbursement of our products, or result in significant changes to our sales or pricing practices, which could have a material impact on our revenues and results of operations. With respect to the Federal Public Health Service drug pricing program, eight states have enacted laws regulating manufacturer pricing obligations under the program. Several additional states are considering similar potential legislation or other government actions, and we expect other states may do the same in the future.

Additionally, in connection with the IRA, the following changes have been made to U.S. tax laws, including (i) a 15% minimum tax that generally applies to U.S. corporations on adjusted financial statement income beginning in 2023 and (ii) a non-deductible 1% excise tax provision on net stock repurchases, to be applied to repurchases beginning in 2023. We continue to evaluate the impact of the IRA on our results of operations and it is possible that these changes may result in a material impact on our business and results of operations. Furthermore, countries are in the process of enacting changes to their tax laws to implement the agreement by the OECD to establish a global minimum tax. See risk factors on these items included under "Part I—Item 1A.

Previous wording

•International revenues decreased 1% for both the second quarter of 2024 and year-to-date due to foreign exchange impacts and lower demand for the Legacy Portfolio, partially offset by higher demand for the Growth Portfolio. The negative foreign exchange impact of 7% during the second quarter and 5% year-to-date was primarily attributed to the devaluation of the Argentine peso, which was mostly offset by inflation-related local currency price increases.

Current wording

•International revenues increased 5% and 1% during the third quarter of 2024 and year-to-date, respectively, driven by higher demand for the Growth Portfolio, partially offset by lower demand for the Legacy Portfolio and foreign exchange impacts.

In the U.S., we generally determine our months on hand estimates using inventory levels of product on hand and the amount of out-movement provided by our three largest wholesalers, which accounted for approximately 86% of total gross sales of U.S. products during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Factors that may influence our estimates include generic erosion, seasonality of products, wholesaler purchases in light of increases in wholesaler list prices, new product launches, new warehouse openings by wholesalers and new customer stockings by wholesalers. In addition, these estimates are calculated using third-party data, which may be impacted by their recordkeeping processes.

Our non-U.S. businesses have significantly more direct customers. Information on available direct customer product level inventory and corresponding out-movement information and the reliability of third-party demand information varies widely. We limit our direct customer sales channel inventory reporting to where we can influence demand. When this information does not exist or is otherwise not available, we have developed a variety of methodologies to estimate such data, including using historical sales made to direct customers and third-party market research data related to prescription trends and end-user demand. Given the difficulties inherent in estimating third-party demand information, we evaluate our methodologies to estimate direct customer product level inventory and to calculate months on hand on an ongoing basis and make changes as necessary. Factors that may affect our estimates include generic competition, seasonality of products, price increases, new product launches, new warehouse openings by direct customers, new customer stockings by direct customers and expected direct customer purchases for governmental bidding situations. As such, all of the information required to estimate months on hand in the direct customer distribution channel for non-U.S. business during the six months ended June 30, 2024 is not available prior to the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We will disclose any product with levels of inventory in excess of one month on hand or expected demand for the current quarter, subject to certain limited exceptions, in our next quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
