Overview

Amgen Inc. (including its subsidiaries, referred to as “Amgen,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) discovers, develops, manufactures and delivers innovative medicines to fight some of the world’s toughest diseases. We focus on areas of high unmet medical need and leverage our expertise to strive for solutions that dramatically improve people’s lives, while also reducing the social and economic burden of disease. We helped launch the biotechnology industry more than 45 years ago and have grown to be one of the world’s leading independent biotechnology companies. Our robust pipeline includes potential first-in-class medicines at all stages of development.

Our principal products are Prolia, Repatha, Otezla, ENBREL, EVENITY, XGEVA, TEPEZZA, BLINCYTO, Nplate, TEZSPIRE, KYPROLIS, Aranesp, KRYSTEXXA and Vectibix. We also market a number of other products, including but not limited to MVASI, PAVBLU, UPLIZNA, IMDELLTRA/IMDYLLTRA, AMJEVITA/AMGEVITA, TAVNEOS, Neulasta, LUMAKRAS/LUMYKRAS, RAVICTI, Parsabiv, Aimovig, WEZLANA/WEZENLA and PROCYSBI. For additional information about our products, see Part I, Item 1. Business—Marketing, Distribution and Selected Marketed Products.

Our strategy is the integrated set of actions we take to improve our competitive position in the industry. In 2025, we generated strong sales growth across our product portfolio and regions; advanced our innovative pipeline; and continued to expand and enhance our world-class manufacturing network. We accomplished these objectives while maintaining a strategic and disciplined approach to capital allocation, including retiring $6.0 billion of debt.

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.

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

61

Cash flows from operating activities in 2025 totaled $10.0 billion, which supported investment in our business, including capital expenditures of $1.9 billion to enhance and expand our manufacturing network, and allowed us to both reduce our debt and return capital to shareholders through the payment of cash dividends. For 2025, we retired $6.0 billion of debt and increased our quarterly cash dividend by 6% to $2.38 per share of common stock. In December 2025, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $2.52 per share of common stock for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of 6% over the same period in the prior year, to be paid in March 2026.

Amgen’s approach to human capital management focuses on attracting, developing and retaining a highly skilled global workforce to support the discovery, development and commercialization of innovative medicines. Our compensation, benefits and development programs are designed to promote performance, accountability, adherence to Company values and alignment with shareholder interests. We believe our culture supports innovation, collaboration and productivity as we execute on our mission to serve patients. For additional information, see Part I, Item 1. Business—Human Capital Resources.

We have a long-standing ambition to be environmentally responsible, and we regularly set targets to challenge ourselves to deliver further improvements. As part of our environmental sustainability efforts, we have established long-term targets to meet by 2027, including achieving carbon neutrality, reducing water consumption by 40% and reducing waste disposed by 75%.2,3

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 expired 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.

Tariffs and trade protection measures

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.

Macroeconomic and other challenges

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.

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

62

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.

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, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of certain factors that could impact our future product sales.

In the following discussion of changes in product sales, any reference to volume growth or decline refers to changes in the purchases of our products by healthcare providers (such as physicians or their clinics), dialysis centers, hospitals and pharmacies. In addition, any reference to increases or decreases in inventory refers to changes in inventory held by wholesaler customers and end users (such as pharmacies).

Total product sales increased 10% in 2025, driven by volume growth of 13%, partially offset by declines in net selling price of 3%. U.S. volume grew 13% and ROW volume grew 14%, driven by volume growth in certain brands, including Repatha, PAVBLU, EVENITY, IMDELLTRA/IMDYLLTRA and TEZSPIRE.

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.

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

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.

Uncertain macroeconomic conditions, including uncertainty around tariffs and trade protection measures, ongoing geopolitical conflicts and rising geopolitical tensions, changes in the healthcare ecosystem, and potential government policy actions, including MFN pricing or similar drug pricing reforms, have the potential to introduce variability into product sales. Furthermore, product sales continue to be impacted by actions from governments and other entities to address macroeconomic challenges, provisions of the IRA, expanded utilization of the 340B Program and growth in numbers of Medicaid enrollees and uninsured individuals. See Part I, Item 1. Business—Reimbursement, and Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The increase in global Prolia sales for 2025 was primarily driven by volume growth of 2% and favorable changes to estimated sales deductions of 2%, partially offset by lower net selling price.

The increase in global Prolia sales for 2024 was driven by volume growth.

As disclosed in Part I, Item 1. Business—Marketing, Distribution and Selected Marketed Products, our patents for RANKL antibodies, including sequences, for Prolia expired in February 2025 in the United States and in November 2025 in select countries in Europe. For 2026, we expect accelerated sales erosion driven by increased competition, as multiple biosimilars have launched in the United States and ROW.

65

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.

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%.

The increase in global XGEVA sales for 2024 was driven by higher net selling price.

As disclosed in Part I, Item 1. Business—Marketing, Distribution and Selected Marketed Products, our patents for RANKL antibodies, including sequences, for XGEVA expired in February 2025 in the United States and in November 2025 in select countries in Europe. For 2026, we expect accelerated sales erosion driven by increased competition, as multiple biosimilars have launched in the United States and ROW.

Cost of sales

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 4, Acquisition, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cost of sales increased to 38.5% of total revenues for 2024, driven by higher amortization expense from Horizon acquisition-related assets and, to a lesser extent, higher profit share and royalty expense, partially offset by the prior year impact of the 2022 Puerto Rico tax law change that replaced an excise tax with an income tax beginning in 2023. For 2024, the unfavorable impact from product sales mix of certain Amgen products was offset by the favorable impact on product sales mix of the addition of acquired Horizon products.

Research and development

The Company groups all of its R&D activities and related expenditures into three categories: (i) Research and Early Pipeline, (ii) Later-Stage Clinical Programs and (iii) Marketed Product Support. These categories are described below:

Category

Description

Research and Early Pipeline

R&D expenses incurred in activities substantially in support of early research through the completion of Phase 1 clinical trials, including drug discovery, toxicology, pharmacokinetics and drug metabolism and process development

Later-Stage Clinical Programs

R&D expenses incurred in or related to Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical programs intended to result in registration of a new product or a new indication for an existing product primarily in the United States or the EU

Marketed Product Support

R&D expenses incurred in support of the Company’s marketed products that are authorized to be sold primarily in the United States or the EU. Includes clinical trials designed to gather information on product safety (certain of which may be required by regulatory authorities) and their product characteristics after regulatory approval has been obtained, as well as the costs of obtaining regulatory approval of a product in a new market after approval in either the United States or the EU has been obtained

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.

The increase in R&D expense for 2024 was driven by investments in Later-Stage Clinical Programs and Marketed Product Support, including Horizon-acquired programs.

We expect to continue to grow our spend on Later-Stage Clinical Programs as we advance our pipeline.

Selling, general and administrative

The decrease in SG&A expense for 2025 was driven by lower Horizon acquisition-related expenses and lower amortization expense from acquisition-related assets, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses.

The increase in SG&A expense for 2024 was primarily driven by expenses from the acquired Horizon business and other commercial expenses, partially offset by lower acquisition-related expenses related to the Horizon acquisition incurred in 2024.

Other

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.

Other operating expenses for 2024 included impairment charges associated with IPR&D intangible assets related to our Teneobio acquisition in 2021 and expenses related to cost-savings initiatives incurred in 2024.

Other operating expenses for 2023 included a net IPR&D intangible asset impairment charge for AMG 340 and expenses related to our restructuring plan that were both initiated and substantially completed in 2023.

Interest expense, net

The decrease in Interest expense, net, for 2025 was primarily due to lower average debt outstanding driven by deleveraging and, to a lesser extent, lower weighted-average fixed and floating interest rates on the debt. See Part IV—Note 16, Financing arrangements, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The increase in Interest expense, net, for 2024 was primarily due to higher average debt outstanding and higher weighted-average fixed and floating interest rates on the debt.

71

Other income, net

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.

The decrease in Other income, net, for 2024 was primarily due to net unrealized losses on equity investments in 2024 compared to net unrealized gains on equity investments in 2023, as well as reduced interest income as a result of lower average cash balances. The 2023 net unrealized gains on equity investments were principally composed of amounts recognized on our BeOne investment in the first quarter of 2023 as a result of a change from the equity method of accounting to recording this investment at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.

Income taxes

The increase in our effective tax rate for 2025 compared with 2024 was primarily due to a change in earnings mix, including the net unrealized gains on equity investments compared to net unrealized losses on equity investments in the prior year, partially offset by the prior-year deferred tax adjustments associated with U.S. tax on the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries and the current year Otezla intangible asset impairment charges and related tax impacts. 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.

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.

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.

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 in 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. The Notices 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 and paid on our foreign earnings.

In 2020, we received an RAR and a modified RAR from the IRS for the years 2013–2015, also 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 similar to those proposed for the years 2010–2012. We disagreed with the proposed adjustments and calculations, and in 2022, filed a petition in the U.S. Tax Court to contest a Notice for the years 2013–2015. The Notice seeks to increase our U.S. taxable income for the years 2013–2015 by an amount that would result in additional federal tax of approximately $5.1 billion, plus interest, and asserts penalties of approximately $2.0 billion. Any additional tax that could be imposed for the years 2013–2015 would be reduced by up to approximately $2.2 billion of repatriation tax previously accrued and paid on our foreign earnings.

We firmly believe that the IRS positions set forth in the 2010–2012 and 2013–2015 Notices are without merit. We continue to contest the 2010–2012 and 2013–2015 Notices through the judicial process. The two cases were consolidated in the U.S. Tax Court in 2022. The trial began on November 4, 2024 and concluded on January 17, 2025. The parties filed opening post-trial briefs on June 13, 2025, and the Court held oral argument on July 16, 2025. The parties filed post-trial reply briefs on October 10, 2025. The Company expects a decision from the U.S. Tax Court no earlier than the second half of 2026.

We are currently under examination by the IRS for the years 2016–2018 with respect to issues similar to those for the 2010 through 2015 period. We expect that the IRS will begin its audit of 2019–2022 in the first half of 2026, and we believe

72

that it may seek to continue to audit similar issues related to the allocation of income between the United States and our foreign jurisdictions. In addition, we are under examination by a number of state and foreign tax jurisdictions.

Final resolution of these complex matters is not likely within the next 12 months. We continue to believe our accrual for income tax liabilities is appropriate based on past experience, interpretations of tax law, application of the tax law to our facts and judgments about potential actions by tax authorities; however, due to the complexity of the provision for income taxes and uncertain resolution of these matters, the ultimate outcome of any tax matters may result in payments substantially greater than amounts accrued and could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.

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; Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates—Income taxes; and Part IV—Note 7, Income taxes, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Cash and cash equivalents

Our balance of cash and cash equivalents was $9.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. The primary objective of our investment portfolio is to maintain safety of principal, prudent levels of liquidity and acceptable levels of risk. Our investment policy limits interest-bearing security investments to certain types of debt and money market instruments issued by institutions with primarily investment-grade credit ratings, and it places restrictions on maturities and concentration by asset class and issuer.

Capital allocation

Consistent with the objective to optimize our capital structure, we deploy our accumulated cash balances in a strategic manner and consider a number of alternatives, including investments in innovation both internally and externally (including investments that expand our portfolio of products in areas of therapeutic interest), capital expenditures, repayment of debt, payment of dividends and stock repurchases.

We intend to continue investing in our business while returning capital to stockholders through the payment of cash dividends and stock repurchases. This reflects our desire to optimize our cost of capital and our confidence in the future cash flows of our business. The timing and amount of future dividends and stock repurchases will vary based on a number of factors, including future capital requirements for strategic transactions, debt levels and debt service requirements, our credit rating, availability of financing on acceptable terms, changes to applicable tax laws or corporate laws, changes to our business model and periodic determination by our Board of Directors that cash dividends and/or stock repurchases are in the best interests of stockholders and are in compliance with applicable laws and the Company’s agreements. In addition, the timing and amount of stock repurchases may also be affected by our overall level of cash, stock price and blackout periods, during which we are restricted from repurchasing stock. The manner of stock repurchases may include block purchases, tender offers, accelerated share repurchases and market transactions.

The Board of Directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $2.38, $2.25 and $2.13 per share of common stock paid in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, reflecting year-over-year increases of 6% for both 2025 and 2024. In December 2025, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $2.52 per share of common stock for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of 6% over the same period in the prior year, which will be paid in March 2026.

73

We also return capital to stockholders through our stock repurchase program. During 2025 and 2023, we did not repurchase shares under the stock repurchase program. During 2024, we repurchased $200 million of common stock under the stock repurchase program. As of December 31, 2025, $6.8 billion of authorization remained available under the stock repurchase program.

As a result of stock repurchases and quarterly dividend payments, we had an accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Our accumulated deficit is not anticipated to affect our future ability to operate, repurchase stock, pay dividends or repay our debt given our expected continued profitability and strong financial position.

We believe that existing funds, cash generated from operations and existing sources of and access to financing are adequate to satisfy our needs for working capital, capital expenditure and debt service requirements, pay dividends and repurchase stock, and other business initiatives we plan to strategically pursue, including acquisitions and licensing activities. We anticipate that our liquidity needs can be met through a variety of sources, including cash provided by operating activities, borrowings through commercial paper and/or syndicated credit facilities, and access to other domestic and foreign debt markets and equity markets. See Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors—Global economic conditions may negatively affect us and may magnify certain risks that affect our business.

Financing arrangements

To help meet our liquidity requirements, we have entered into various financing arrangements. The noncurrent portions of our long-term borrowings as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, were $50.0 billion and $56.5 billion, respectively. The carrying values of our long-term borrowings are net of fair value adjustments for interest rate swaps and unamortized discounts, premiums and offering costs. As of December 31, 2025, S&P, Moody’s and Fitch assigned credit ratings to our outstanding senior notes of BBB+, Baa1 and BBB+, respectively, which are considered investment grade. Unfavorable changes to these ratings may have an adverse impact on future financings.

During 2023, in connection with our acquisition of Horizon, we issued $24.0 billion of debt composed of eight series of notes and borrowed $4.0 billion under a term loan credit agreement, of which $1.8 billion of borrowings was outstanding as of December 31, 2025.

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.

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.

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.

To achieve a desired mix of fixed-rate and floating-rate debt, we entered into interest rate swap contracts that effectively converted a fixed-rate interest coupon for certain of our debt issuances to a floating, SOFR-based coupon over the terms of the respective notes. These interest rate swap contracts qualify and are designated as fair value hedges. As of both December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $6.7 billion.

To hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain of our long-term notes denominated in foreign currencies, we entered into cross-currency swap contracts, which effectively converted the interest payments and principal repayment of the respective notes from euros and pounds sterling to U.S. dollars. These cross-currency swap contracts qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges. As of both December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had cross-currency swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $2.7 billion.

In 2025, we increased the capacity of our commercial paper program from $2.5 billion to $4.0 billion, which allows us to issue up to $4.0 billion of unsecured commercial paper to fund working capital needs. We did not issue any commercial paper during 2025, 2024 or 2023, and no commercial paper was outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

In 2023, we amended and restated our syndicated, unsecured, revolving credit agreement, under which we may borrow up to $4.0 billion for general corporate purposes, including as a liquidity backstop for our commercial paper program. The commitments under the revolving credit agreement may be increased by up to $1.25 billion with the agreement of the banks. Each bank that is a party to the agreement has an initial commitment term of five years. This term may be extended for up to two additional one-year periods with the agreement of the banks. Annual commitment fees for this agreement are 0.09% of the

74

unused portion of the facility based on our current credit rating. Generally, we would be charged interest for any amounts borrowed under this facility, based on our current credit rating, at (i) SOFR plus 1.01% or (ii) the highest of (A) the administrative agent bank base commercial lending rate, (B) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (C) one-month SOFR plus 1.1%. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no amounts were outstanding under this facility.

Also in 2023, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC that allows us to issue unspecified amounts of debt securities; common stock; preferred stock; warrants to purchase debt securities, common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares; rights to purchase common stock or preferred stock; securities purchase contracts; securities purchase units; and depositary shares. Under this shelf registration statement, all of the securities available for issuance may be offered from time to time, with terms to be determined at the time of issuance. This shelf registration statement expired in February 2026, and our Board has approved a new shelf registration statement to replace it.

Certain of our financing arrangements contain nonfinancial covenants. In addition, our revolving credit agreement and term loan credit agreement include a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a specified minimum interest coverage ratio of (i) the sum of consolidated net income, interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, unusual or nonrecurring charges and other noncash items (consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to (ii) Consolidated Interest Expense, each as defined and described in the respective agreements. We were in compliance with all applicable covenants under these arrangements as of December 31, 2025.

These financing arrangements are more fully discussed in Part IV—Note 16, Financing arrangements, and Note 19, Derivative instruments, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Operating

Cash provided by operating activities has been and is expected to continue to be our primary recurring source of funds. Cash provided by operating activities decreased in 2025 as compared to 2024 due to the timing of working capital items primarily driven by higher collections in the fourth quarter of 2024, partially offset by higher net income after adjustments for noncash items and lower interest payments.

Cash provided by operating activities increased in 2024 as compared to 2023 due to higher net income after adjustments for noncash items and the timing of working capital items primarily driven by higher collections in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Investing

Cash used in investing activities during 2025 and 2024 was primarily due to $1.9 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, of capital expenditures, including construction costs for new plants and expansion of manufacturing capacity.

Cash used in investing activities during 2023 was primarily due to $27.0 billion of net cash used for the purchase of Horizon and $1.1 billion of capital expenditures, partially offset by net cash inflows related to marketable securities of $1.7 billion.

We currently estimate 2026 investments in capital projects to be approximately $2.6 billion. A majority of the increase in expenditures relates to construction costs for new plants and expansion of manufacturing capacity to enable supply of products and product candidates.

Financing

Cash used in financing activities during 2025 was primarily due to the repayment and extinguishment of debt of $5.0 billion and $683 million, respectively, and the payment of dividends of $5.1 billion.

75

Cash used in financing activities during 2024 was primarily due to the payment of dividends of $4.8 billion, the repayment and extinguishment of debt of $3.6 billion and $659 million, respectively, and payments to repurchase common stock of $200 million.

Cash provided by financing activities during 2023 was primarily due to net proceeds from long-term debt issuances of $27.8 billion primarily in connection with the acquisition of Horizon, partially offset by the payment of dividends of $4.6 billion and the repayment and extinguishment of debt of $1.5 billion and $647 million, respectively.

See Part IV—Note 10, Investments; Note 16, Financing arrangements; and Note 17, Stockholders’ equity, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Capital requirements

We have material cash requirements to pay third parties under various contractual obligations discussed below.

We are obligated to pay interest and repay principal under our various financing arrangements, including amounts under interest rate swap and cross-currency swap contracts related to certain of our long-term debt obligations. For information on scheduled debt maturities and payments under derivative contracts associated with our long-term debt obligations, see Part IV—Note 16, Financing arrangements, and Note 19, Derivative instruments, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We are obligated to make payments for operating leases, including rental commitments on unoccupied leases and leases that have not yet commenced. For information on these obligations, see Part IV—Note 14, Leases, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

As of December 31, 2025, we have purchase obligations of approximately $6.9 billion primarily related to (i) R&D commitments (including those related to clinical trials) for new and existing products, (ii) capital expenditures and (iii) open purchase orders for the acquisition of goods and services in the ordinary course of business. Most of these obligations are expected to be paid within one year, and payment of certain of these amounts may be reduced based on certain future events.

In addition to the purchase obligations noted above and upon the achievement of various development, regulatory and commercial milestones for agreements we have entered into with third parties, we are contractually obligated to pay additional amounts that, in the aggregate, are significant. These payments are contingent upon the occurrence of various future events, substantially all of which have a high degree of uncertainty of occurring, and any resulting cash requirements are managed through our operational budgeting processes. Except with respect to the fair value of the contingent consideration of approximately $161 million as of December 31, 2025, these obligations are not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2025, the maximum amount that may be payable in the future for agreements we have entered into with third parties is approximately $7.2 billion.

We have recorded liabilities for UTBs that, because of their nature, have a high degree of uncertainty regarding the timing of future cash payment and other events that extinguish these liabilities. See Part IV—Note 7, Income taxes, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

76

Critical accounting policies and estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements. Some of those judgments can be subjective and complex, and therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our significant accounting policies are included in Part IV—Note 1, Summary of significant accounting policies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The following are considered critical to our consolidated financial statements because they require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

Product sales and sales deductions

Revenue from product sales is recognized upon transfer of control of a product to a customer, generally upon delivery, based on an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled, net of accruals for estimated rebates, wholesaler chargebacks, discounts and other deductions (collectively, sales deductions) established at the time of sale.

We analyze the adequacy of our accruals for sales deductions quarterly. Amounts accrued for sales deductions are adjusted when trends or significant events indicate that adjustment is appropriate. Accruals are also adjusted to reflect actual results. Amounts recorded in Accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for sales deductions were as follows (in millions):

(1)    Represents sales deductions assumed from the Horizon acquisition.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, total sales deductions were 54%, 52% and 53% of gross product sales, respectively. The increase in the total sales deductions balance as of December 31, 2025, compared with December 31, 2024, was primarily driven by an increase in gross sales and timing of payments. Included in the amounts are immaterial net adjustments related to prior-year sales due to changes in estimates.

In the United States, we use wholesalers as the principal means of distributing our products to healthcare providers such as physicians or their clinics, dialysis centers, hospitals and pharmacies. Products we sell in Europe are distributed principally to hospitals and/or wholesalers depending on the distribution practice in each country where the products are sold. We monitor the inventory levels of our products at our wholesalers by using data from our wholesalers and other third parties, and we believe wholesaler inventories have been maintained at appropriate levels (generally two to three weeks) given end-user demand. Accordingly, historical fluctuations in wholesaler inventory levels have not significantly affected our method of estimating sales deductions.

Accruals for sales deductions are based primarily on estimates of the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales. These estimates take into consideration current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, internal and external historical data and forecasted customer buying patterns. Sales deductions are substantially product specific and therefore, for any given year, can be affected by the mix of products sold.

Rebates include primarily amounts paid to payers and providers in the United States, including those paid to state Medicaid programs and those related to the IRA, and are based on contractual arrangements or statutory requirements that vary by product, by payer and by individual payer plans. As we sell products, we estimate the amount of rebate we will pay based on

77

the product sold, contractual terms, estimated patient population, historical experience and wholesaler inventory levels; and we accrue these rebates in the period the related sales are recorded. We then adjust the rebate accruals as more information becomes available and to reflect actual claims experience. Estimating such rebates is complicated, in part because of the time delay between the date of sale and the actual settlement of the liability. We believe the methodology we use to accrue for rebates is reasonable and appropriate given current facts and circumstances, but actual results may differ.

Wholesaler chargebacks relate to our contractual agreements to sell products to healthcare providers in the United States at fixed prices that are lower than the prices we charge wholesalers. When healthcare providers purchase our products through wholesalers at these reduced prices, wholesalers charge us for the difference between their purchase prices and the contractual prices between Amgen and the healthcare providers. The provision for chargebacks is based on expected sales by our wholesaler customers to healthcare providers. Accruals for wholesaler chargebacks are less difficult to estimate than rebates are, and they closely approximate actual results because chargeback amounts are fixed at the date of purchase by the healthcare providers and because we generally settle the liability for these deductions within a few weeks.

Income taxes

We provide for income taxes based on pretax income and applicable tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which we operate.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by tax authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit recognized in the consolidated financial statements for a particular tax position is based on the largest benefit that is more likely than not to be realized. The amount of UTBs is adjusted as appropriate for changes in facts and circumstances, such as significant amendments to existing tax law, new regulations or interpretations by tax authorities, new information obtained during a tax examination or resolution of an examination. We believe our estimates for uncertain tax positions are appropriate and sufficient for any assessments that may result from examinations of our tax returns. We recognize both accrued interest and penalties, when appropriate, related to UTBs in income tax expense. See Part IV—Note 7, Income taxes, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Certain items are included in our tax return at different times than they are reflected in the financial statements, and they cause temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Such temporary differences create deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are generally items that can be used as tax deductions or credits in tax returns in future years but for which we have already recorded the tax benefit in the consolidated financial statements. We establish valuation allowances against our deferred tax assets when the amount of expected future taxable income is not likely to support the use of the deduction or credit. Deferred tax liabilities are either (i) tax expenses recognized in the consolidated financial statements for which payment has been deferred, (ii) expenses for which we have already taken a deduction on the tax return but have not yet recognized in the consolidated financial statements or (iii) liabilities for the difference between the book basis and the tax basis of the intangible assets acquired in many business combinations, because future expenses associated with these assets most often will not be tax deductible.

Amgen is subject to current U.S. tax on the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries. We previously established deferred taxes related to this U.S. tax, which requires us to recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse and be subject to this tax in future years. These are ongoing adjustments that are likely to occur in future periods.

We are a vertically integrated enterprise with operations in the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. In the jurisdictions where we conduct operations, we are subject to income tax based on the tax laws and principles of such jurisdictions and on the functions, risks and activities performed therein. Our pretax income is therefore attributed to domestic or foreign sources based on the operations performed and the risks assumed in each location, as well as on the tax laws and principles of the respective taxing jurisdictions. For example, we conduct significant operations in Puerto Rico, a territory of the United States that is treated as a foreign jurisdiction for U.S. tax purposes, pertaining to manufacturing, distribution and other related functions to meet our worldwide product demand. Income from our operations in Puerto Rico is subject to tax incentive grants through 2050.

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 in 2021, filed a petition in the U.S. Tax Court to contest two duplicate Statutory Notices of Deficiency (Notices) for the years 2010–2012. The Notices 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 and paid on our foreign earnings.

78

In 2020, we received an RAR and a modified RAR from the IRS for the years 2013–2015, also 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 similar to those proposed for the years 2010–2012. We disagreed with the proposed adjustments and calculations, and in 2022, filed a petition in the U.S. Tax Court to contest a Notice for the years 2013–2015. The Notice seeks to increase our U.S. taxable income for the years 2013–2015 by an amount that would result in additional federal tax of approximately $5.1 billion, plus interest, and asserts penalties of approximately $2.0 billion. Any additional tax that could be imposed for the years 2013–2015 would be reduced by up to approximately $2.2 billion of repatriation tax previously accrued and paid on our foreign earnings.

We firmly believe that the IRS positions set forth in the 2010–2012 and 2013–2015 Notices are without merit. We continue to contest the 2010–2012 and 2013–2015 Notices through the judicial process. The two cases were consolidated in the U.S. Tax Court in 2022. The trial began on November 4, 2024, and concluded on January 17, 2025. The parties filed opening post-trial briefs on June 13, 2025, and the Court held oral argument on July 16, 2025. The parties filed post-trial reply briefs on October 10, 2025. The Company expects a decision from the U.S. Tax Court no earlier than the second half of 2026.

We are currently under examination by the IRS for the years 2016–2018 with respect to issues similar to those for the 2010 through 2015 period. We expect that the IRS will begin its audit of 2019–2022 in the first half of 2026, and we believe that it may seek to continue to audit similar issues related to the allocation of income between the United States and our foreign jurisdictions. In addition, we are under examination by a number of state and foreign tax jurisdictions.

Final resolution of these complex matters is not likely within the next 12 months. We continue to believe our accrual for income tax liabilities is appropriate based on past experience, interpretations of tax law, application of the tax law to our facts and judgments about potential actions by tax authorities; however, due to the complexity of the provision for income taxes and uncertain resolution of these matters, the ultimate outcome of any tax matters may result in payments substantially greater than amounts accrued and could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.

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; Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations—Income taxes; and Part IV—Note 7, Income taxes, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Our operations are subject to the tax laws, regulations and administrative practices of the United States, the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico, U.S. state jurisdictions and other countries in which we do business. Significant changes in these rules could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. 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.

Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various legal proceedings, government investigations and other matters such as intellectual property disputes, contractual disputes and class action suits that are complex in nature and have outcomes that are difficult to predict. We describe our legal proceedings and other matters that are significant or that we believe could become significant in Part IV—Note 20, Contingencies and commitments, to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We record accruals for loss contingencies to the extent that we conclude it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the related loss can be reasonably estimated. We evaluate, on a quarterly basis, developments in legal proceedings and other matters that could cause an increase or decrease in the amount of the liability that has been accrued previously.

While it is not possible to accurately predict or determine the eventual outcomes of these items, an adverse determination in one or more of these items currently pending could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Valuation of assets and liabilities in connection with acquisitions

We have acquired and continue to acquire intangible assets in connection with business combinations and asset acquisitions. These intangible assets consist primarily of technology associated with currently marketed human therapeutic products and IPR&D product candidates. Discounted cash flow models are typically used to determine the fair values of these intangible assets for purposes of allocating consideration paid to the net assets acquired in an acquisition. See Part IV—Note 4, Acquisition, to the Consolidated Financial Statements. These models require the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including but not limited to:

79

•determining the timing and expected costs to complete in-process projects, taking into account the stage of completion at the acquisition date;

•projecting the probability and timing of obtaining marketing approval from the FDA and other regulatory agencies for product candidates;

•estimating the timing of and future net cash flows from product sales resulting from completed products and in-process projects; and

•developing appropriate discount rates to calculate the present values of the cash flows.

Significant estimates and assumptions are also required to determine the business combination date fair values of any contingent consideration obligations incurred in connection with business combinations. In addition, we must revalue these obligations each subsequent reporting period until the related contingencies are resolved and record changes in their fair values in earnings. The acquisition date fair values of contingent consideration obligations incurred or assumed in the acquisitions were determined using a combination of valuation techniques. Significant estimates and assumptions required for these valuations included but were not limited to the timing and probability of achieving regulatory milestones, product sales projections under various scenarios and discount rates used to calculate the present value of the required payments. These estimates and assumptions are required to be updated in order to revalue these contingent consideration obligations each reporting period. Accordingly, subsequent changes in underlying facts and circumstances could result in changes in these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the estimated future fair values of these obligations.

We believe the fair values used to record intangible assets acquired and contingent consideration obligations incurred in connection with business combinations and asset acquisitions are based on reasonable estimates and assumptions given the facts and circumstances as of the related valuation dates.

Impairment of long-lived assets

We review the carrying value of our finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such circumstances exist, an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows to be generated by the long-lived asset is compared with the carrying value to determine whether an impairment exists. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the loss is measured based on the difference between the asset’s fair value and its carrying value.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets, composed of IPR&D projects acquired in a business combination that have not reached technological feasibility or that lack regulatory approval at the time of acquisition, are reviewed for impairment annually, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable and upon establishment of technological feasibility or regulatory approval. We test for impairment by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying value. If the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recorded for the difference, and its carrying value is reduced accordingly.

Estimating future cash flows of an IPR&D product candidate for purposes of an impairment analysis requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions regarding the amount and timing of costs to complete the project and the amount, timing and probability of achieving revenues from the completed product similar to how the acquisition date fair value of the project was determined, as described above. There are often major risks and uncertainties associated with IPR&D projects as we are required to obtain regulatory approvals in order to be able to market these products. Such approvals require completing clinical trials that demonstrate a product candidate is safe and effective. Consequently, the eventual realized value of the acquired IPR&D project may vary from its fair value at the date of acquisition, and IPR&D impairment charges may occur in future periods which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We believe our estimations of future cash flows used for assessing impairment of long-lived assets are based on reasonable assumptions given the facts and circumstances as of the related dates of the assessments.
