Current report

In 2025, we achieved several significant regulatory, clinical and operational milestones. We obtained multiple regulatory approvals, including new indications for UPLIZNA and TEZSPIRE; a broadened FDA approval for Repatha; and full FDA approval for IMDELLTRA for the treatment of ES-SCLC. We also advanced our innovative pipeline, including the initiation of six global Phase 3 clinical studies for MariTide and the reporting of Phase 3 data across several programs. In addition, we continued to invest in expanding and enhancing our manufacturing capacity, including facilities in Ohio, North Carolina and the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico. Furthermore, in 2025 we also broke ground on a new state-of-the-art R&D facility in Thousand Oaks, California, to further enhance collaboration and innovation across R&D and process development activities. For additional information on our pipeline and clinical development updates, see Part I, Item 1. Business—Research and Development and Selected Product Candidates, and Part I, Item 1. Business—Significant Developments. For additional information on our manufacturing operations, see Part I, Item 1. Business—Manufacturing, Distribution and Raw Materials.

Current report

Total product sales increased 10% in 2025, driven by volume growth of 13%, partially offset by declines in net selling price of 3%.

Current report

Recent and ongoing changes in U.S. trade and tariff policies, including the imposition, modification, suspension and threatened expansion of tariffs on imported goods, as well as retaliatory measures by foreign governments, have increased uncertainty in the overall business and operating environment. Numerous tariffs and trade protection measures have been proposed, and in a number of cases, implemented by the United States and other countries, including the April 2025 Tariff EO, which imposed a universal 10% tariff on goods imported into the United States, with certain exceptions including pharmaceuticals. Further, there were previous proposals for sector-specific tariffs on our industry, and in December 2025, in recognition of our capital investments in U.S. manufacturing, we received relief from Section 232 tariffs, pending final determination under such section of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, for approximately the next three years. Tariffs and trade protection measures may adversely affect our business and results of operations. For additional discussion of these and other risks, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current report

Moreover, provisions of the IRA, as well as the expanded utilization of the 340B Program, have negatively affected, and are likely to continue to negatively affect, our business. For example, CMS has selected ENBREL and Otezla for Medicare price setting beginning in 2026 and 2027, respectively. In addition to the IRA, other recent and proposed U.S. policy actions focus on drug pricing, including the Most-Favored-Nations Prescription Drug Pricing Executive Order (MFN EO) and the July MFN Letter that was delivered to a number of pharmaceutical companies, including Amgen. In December 2025, we announced

Current report

that we are taking actions that satisfy the components outlined in the July MFN Letter, including the Administration’s MFN pricing requests. We also announced the expansion of our direct-to-patient program. While this development reflects ongoing engagement on pricing policy, the ultimate effects on our pricing, reimbursement, net sales and profitability remain uncertain in light of such evolving regulatory and policy expectations. For additional discussion of these and other risks, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current report

Other revenues increased 15% for 2025, primarily driven by higher royalty income.

Current report

Operating expenses increased 6% for 2025, primarily driven by investments in Later-Stage Clinical Programs and Otezla intangible asset impairment charges in 2025, partially offset by lower amortization expense from acquisition-related assets, including the fair value step-up of inventory acquired from Horizon. See Part IV—Note 13, Goodwill and other intangible assets, to the Consolidated Financial Statements, for additional information related to the Otezla intangible asset impairment charges.

Current report

(2)TEZSPIRE is marketed by our collaborator AstraZeneca outside the United States.

Current report

In January 2025, Otezla was selected by CMS for Medicare price setting that will be applicable beginning in 2027. As a result, we expect further declines in net selling price driven by Medicare price setting beginning in 2027. See Part IV—Note 13, Goodwill and other intangible assets, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to the Otezla intangible asset impairment charges.

Current report

The decrease in ENBREL sales for 2025 was primarily driven by lower net selling price of 36% resulting from the impact of increased 340B Program mix, U.S. Medicare Part D redesign and higher commercial discounts, partially offset by volume growth of 4%. For 2026, we expect product sales for ENBREL to follow the historical pattern of lower sales in the first quarter relative to subsequent quarters, as discussed above.

Current report

The increase in global TEPEZZA sales for 2025 was primarily driven by higher net selling price.

Current report

The increase in KRYSTEXXA sales for 2025 was driven by volume growth and higher net selling price. For 2026, we expect product sales for KRYSTEXXA to follow the historical pattern of lower sales in the first quarter relative to subsequent quarters, as discussed above.

Current report

The increase in R&D expense for 2025 was driven by investments in Later-Stage Clinical Programs, including those related to MariTide, and in Research and Early Pipeline, partially offset by lower spend in Marketed Product Support. This increase includes the impact of business development activities in 2025.

Current report

Other operating expenses for 2025 included Otezla intangible asset impairment charges of $1.2 billion. See Part IV—Note 13, Goodwill and other intangible assets, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Current report

The increase in Other income, net, for 2025 was primarily due to current year net unrealized gains on equity investments, primarily BeOne, compared to net unrealized losses on equity investments in the prior year. See Part IV—Note 10, Investments, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Current report

In 2021, the OECD reached an initial agreement to align countries on a minimum corporate tax rate and an expansion of the taxing rights of market countries. Select individual countries, including the United Kingdom, EU member countries and Singapore, have enacted the global minimum tax agreement that took effect starting in 2024. Singapore’s enactment of the agreement, effective 2025, applies irrespective of the Company’s incentive grant. On January 5, 2026, the OECD issued additional administrative guidance related to the global minimum tax agreement that exempts U.S. companies from extra territorial minimum taxes effective January 1, 2026. The new guidance did not impact our 2025 results. We are monitoring the potential 2026 impact of the guidance as jurisdictions may enact the new rules. See Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors—We could be subject to additional tax liabilities, including from an adverse outcome in our ongoing tax dispute with the IRS and other tax examinations, enactment of the OECD minimum corporate tax rate agreement and the adoption and interpretation of new tax legislation, including OB3. Such tax liabilities could adversely affect our profitability and results of operations.

Current report

On July 4, 2025, OB3 was enacted in the United States. OB3 has various provisions, including the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the 2017 Tax Act, and modifications to the international tax framework. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2026 and beyond.

Current report

During 2025, we retired $6.0 billion of debt, consisting of $5.0 billion of debt repayments and $1.0 billion of debt repurchases. The debt repurchases were completed for an aggregate cost of $683 million and resulted in a $264 million gain on extinguishment of debt. We periodically consider the repurchase of our debt when conditions are favorable. Gains on extinguishment of debt are recorded in Other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Current report

During 2024, we retired $4.5 billion of debt, consisting of $3.6 billion of debt repayments, of which $2.2 billion related to repayments on our term loans, and $875 million of debt repurchases. The debt repurchases were completed for an aggregate cost of $659 million and resulted in a $215 million gain on extinguishment of debt.

Current report

During 2023, we retired $2.3 billion of debt, consisting of $1.5 billion of debt repayments and $881 million of debt repurchases. The debt repurchases were completed for an aggregate cost of $647 million and resulted in a $225 million gain on extinguishment of debt.

Previous report

We received regulatory approvals for BLINCYTO in CD19-positive Philadelphia chromosome-negative B-ALL and IMDELLTRA in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) and reported five Phase 3 data readouts, including for BLINCYTO, UPLIZNA, rocatinlimab and TEZSPIRE, as well as MariTide Phase 2 top-line results. For more information on our pipeline and clinical development updates, see Part I, Item 1. Business—Research and Development and Selected Product Candidates, and Part I, Item 1. Business—Significant Developments.

Previous report

Total product sales increased in 2024, primarily driven by volume growth of 23%, partially offset by declines in net selling price of 2%. Product sales from acquired Horizon products contributed $4.2 billion in 2024 compared to $954 million in 2023, with volume growth from our other brands of 11%.

Previous report

Other revenues increased for 2024, primarily driven by higher corporate partner revenue from licensed products and royalty income.

Previous report

Operating expenses increased for 2024, driven by higher amortization expense from Horizon acquisition-related assets, higher R&D and SG&A expenses, including expenses from the acquired Horizon business, and higher profit share and royalty expense.

Previous report

The decrease in ENBREL sales for 2024 was driven by lower net selling price. For 2025, we expect ENBREL to follow the historical pattern of lower sales in the first quarter relative to subsequent quarters due to the impact of benefit plan changes, insurance reverification and increased co-pay expenses as U.S. patients work through deductibles. In addition, going forward, we expect relatively flat volumes with continued declines in net selling price, including the impact from the IRA Medicare Part D price set by CMS beginning in 2026.

Previous report

The increase in global Nplate sales for 2023 was primarily driven by volume growth, including U.S. government orders totaling $286 million.

Previous report

Other operating expenses for 2022 primarily consisted of a loss on the divestiture of Gensenta.

Previous report

The change in Other income (expense), net, for 2023 was primarily due to gains recognized in connection with recording our BeiGene investment at fair value and an increase in interest income due to higher average cash balances and higher interest rates as compared to the prior year.

Previous report

As previously reported, the OECD reached an agreement to align countries on a minimum corporate tax rate and an expansion of the taxing rights of market countries. As of January 1, 2025, select individual countries, including the United Kingdom, EU member countries and Singapore, have enacted the global minimum tax agreement. Our legal entities in the countries that have enacted the agreement, along with their direct and indirect subsidiaries, are now subject to a 15% minimum tax rate on adjusted financial statement income. Other countries, including the United States and the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico, have not yet enacted the OECD agreement and implementation remains highly uncertain. The continued enactment of the agreement, either by all OECD participants or unilaterally by individual countries, could result in tax increases or double taxation in the United States or foreign jurisdictions.

Previous report

A 2022 Puerto Rico tax law change replaced the excise tax with an income tax, beginning in 2023. As of January 1, 2023, we are no longer subject to a 4% excise tax in the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico on the gross intercompany purchase price of goods and services from our manufacturer in Puerto Rico. We qualify for and are subject to the alternative income tax rate on industrial development income of our Puerto Rico affiliate. In the United States, this income tax qualifies for foreign tax credits under the U.S. Treasury final foreign tax credit regulations. See Part IV—Note 7, Income taxes, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Previous report

During 2024, debt repayments totaled $3.6 billion, of which $2.2 billion was composed of repayments on our term loans. During 2023, debt repayments totaled $1.5 billion, and we had no debt repayments in 2022. In addition, we opportunistically repurchase our debt when market conditions are favorable. During 2024, 2023 and 2022, we repurchased aggregate principal amounts of our debt of $875 million, $881 million and $378 million, respectively, for aggregate costs of $659 million, $647 million and $297 million, respectively, which resulted in the recognition of gains on extinguishment of debt of $215 million, $225 million and $78 million, respectively, recorded in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Previous report

Cash used in investing activities during 2022 was primarily due to our $3.8 billion purchase of ChemoCentryx, net cash outflows related to marketable securities of $1.4 billion and $936 million of capital expenditures.

Previous report

Under the 2017 Tax Act, we elected to pay in eight annual installments the repatriation tax related primarily to prior indefinitely invested earnings of our foreign operations, of which the final installment will be paid in 2025.

We have a long-standing ambition to be environmentally responsible, and we regularly set targets to challenge ourselves to deliver further improvements. To continue on our path to greater environmental sustainability, in January 2021 we announced a new set of long-term environmental targets to achieve by 2027, including achieving carbon neutrality, reducing water consumption by 40% and reducing waste disposed by 75%.2,3

Previous wording

Our long-term success depends, to a great extent, on our ability to continue to discover, develop and commercialize innovative products and acquire or collaborate on therapies currently in development by other companies. We must grow sales from existing and new products to achieve revenue growth and to offset revenue losses caused by products’ loss of their exclusivity or launches of competing products. For example, our patents for RANKL antibodies, including sequences, for Prolia and XGEVA expire in February 2025 in the United States and in November 2025 in select countries in Europe. Certain of our products face increasing pressure from competition, including biosimilars and generics. For additional information, including information on the expirations of patents for various products, see Part I, Item 1. Business—Marketing, Distribution and Selected Marketed Products—Patents, and Part I, Item 1. Business—Marketing, Distribution and Selected Marketed Products—Competition. We devote considerable resources to R&D activities, but successful product development in the biotechnology industry is highly uncertain. We also face increasing regulatory scrutiny of safety and efficacy both before and after products launch.

Previous wording

Uncertain macroeconomic conditions, including the risk of inflation, tariffs or trade protection measures, higher interest rates and instability in the financial system, as well as rising healthcare costs, continue to pose challenges to our business. Further, ongoing geopolitical conflicts continue to create additional uncertainty in global macroeconomic conditions. Additionally, with public and private healthcare-provider focus, the industry continues to be subject to cost containment measures and significant pricing pressures, resulting in net price declines. Moreover, provisions of the IRA, as well as the 340B Program, have affected, and are likely to continue to affect, our business. For example, ENBREL and Otezla have been selected by CMS for Medicare price setting beginning in 2026 and 2027, respectively. Finally, wholesale and end-user buying patterns can affect our product sales. These buying patterns can cause fluctuations in quarterly product sales, but have generally not been significant to date when comparing full-year product performance to the prior year. See Part I, Item 1. Business—Marketing, Distribution and Selected Marketed Products, and Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors for further discussion of certain factors that could impact our future product sales.

Current wording

Uncertain macroeconomic conditions, including the risk of inflation, fluctuating interest rates and instability in the financial system, as well as rising healthcare costs, continue to pose challenges to our business. Uncertainty around tariffs and trade protection measures in the United States and other countries, including the imposition, modification, suspension and threatened expansion of tariffs on imported goods, along with ongoing geopolitical conflicts and rising geopolitical tensions, continue to create additional uncertainty in global macroeconomic conditions. Additionally, with public and private healthcare-provider focus, the industry continues to be subject to cost containment measures and significant pricing pressures, resulting in net price declines.

Previous wording

Total product sales increased 19% in 2024, primarily driven by volume growth of 23%, partially offset by declines in net selling price of 2%. U.S. volume grew 26% and ROW volume grew 17%. Product sales from acquired Horizon products contributed $4.2 billion in 2024 compared to $954 million in 2023, with volume growth of 11% from our other brands, including Repatha, TEZSPIRE, EVENITY, BLINCYTO and Prolia.

Current wording

Previous wording

For 2025, we expect volume growth from certain brands to be partially offset by net selling price declines. Further, the first quarter of a year historically represents the lowest product sales quarter for the year, in part due to plan changes, insurance reverifications and higher co-pay expenses as U.S. patients work through deductibles, particularly for products acquired through pharmacy benefit programs.

Current wording

For 2026, we expect volume growth from certain brands to be partially offset by net selling price declines. Further, the first quarter of a year historically represents the lowest product sales quarter for the year, in part due to plan changes, insurance reverifications and higher co-pay expenses as U.S. patients work through deductibles, including for ENBREL and Otezla, and to a lesser extent for KRYSTEXXA, TEZSPIRE and Repatha, particularly for products acquired through pharmacy benefit programs.

Previous wording

Uncertain macroeconomic conditions, changes in the healthcare ecosystem and geopolitical conflicts have the potential to introduce variability into product sales. Furthermore, product sales continue to be impacted by actions from governments and other entities to curb high inflation, provisions of the IRA, inappropriate expanded utilization of the 340B Program and growth in numbers of Medicaid enrollees and uninsured individuals. See Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A. of this Form 10-K.

The decrease in global Otezla sales for 2024 was primarily driven by lower net selling price of 8%, partially offset by volume growth of 3%. For 2025, we expect Otezla to follow the historical pattern of lower sales in the first quarter relative to subsequent quarters due to the impact of benefit plan changes, insurance reverification and increased co-pay expenses as U.S. patients work through deductibles. In January 2025, Otezla was selected by CMS for Medicare price setting that will be applicable beginning on January 1, 2027.

Cost of sales increased to 30.0% of total revenues for 2023, driven by higher amortization expense from acquisition-related assets primarily associated with the Horizon acquisition, higher profit share and royalty expense and changes in our product sales mix, partially offset by the impact of the 2022 Puerto Rico tax law change.

Current wording

Cost of sales decreased to 32.8% of total revenues for 2025, driven by lower amortization expense from acquisition-related assets, including the fair value step-up of inventory acquired from Horizon, and lower manufacturing costs, partially offset by higher profit share expense and changes in our sales mix.

See Part IV—Note 10, Investments, and Note 13, Goodwill and other intangible assets, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our equity investments and Otezla impairment charges, respectively.

Previous wording

In 2017, we received an RAR and a modified RAR from the IRS for the years 2010–2012, proposing significant adjustments that primarily relate to the allocation of profits between certain of our entities in the United States and the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico. We disagreed with the proposed adjustments and calculations and pursued resolution with the IRS appeals office but were unable to reach resolution. In July 2021, we filed a petition in the U.S. Tax Court to contest two duplicate Statutory Notices of Deficiency (Notices) for the years 2010–2012 that we received in May and July 2021, which seek to increase our U.S. taxable income for the years 2010–2012 by an amount that would result in additional federal tax of approximately $3.6 billion plus interest. Any additional tax that could be imposed for the years 2010–2012 would be reduced by up to approximately $900 million of repatriation tax previously accrued on our foreign earnings.
