- In July 2025, the OBBBA was enacted which, among other things, aims to achieve efficiencies in U.S. federal government healthcare spending over the next decade, primarily within Medicaid. We are continuing to assess the full scope of this legislation and its potential commercial implications, and it is possible that these changes may impact our cash flows and results of operations.
- introduction of competitive products that treat diseases and conditions like those treated by our products and product candidates. Business combinations among our competitors and major third-party payers may also increase competition for our products. If we are unable to compete successfully against our competitors’ products in the marketplace, this could have a material negative impact on our revenues and earnings.
- brand and reputation, reduced demand for our products, inability to attract and retain employee talent or other negative impacts on our business and operations.
- imposed on us that could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, cash flows, results of operations, financial condition or reputation.
- competitive products enter the market or clinical trial results for our competitors’ products affect the value proposition for our product. Any such delays or difficulties in clinical development could also potentially lead to a material impairment of our intangible assets, including the $19.1 billion of other intangible assets as of December 31, 2025.
Removed Item 1A headings (5)
- Commercialization launch delays are especially common when a product is expected to have a REMS program, as required by the FDA to address significant risk/benefit issues. Certain of our future key products may be required to be distributed in the U.S. through
- In addition, both the U.S. Congress and the FDA have taken steps to promote the development and approval of generic drugs and biosimilar biologics, including by providing generic and biosimilar developers a private right of action to obtain sufficient quantities of drug samples from the reference product’s manufacturer in order to conduct testing necessary to obtain approval for generic or biosimilar products.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS.
60 rewritten, 30 added, 16 removed, 224 unchanged
Our future revenues and profit margins could be negatively affected, including as a result of (i) changes in [removed: laws] [added: laws, agreements] and regulations relating to the pricing and reimbursement of pharmaceutical products (including potential penalties for increasing prices over the rate of inflation and government negotiations/price controls that may change the determination of the "best price" and establish a maximum allowed price/reimbursement rate), as well as other changes relating to federal healthcare programs, such as modifying the federal Anti-Kickback statute discount safe [removed: harbor] [added: harbor, OBBBA] and the IRA, which includes a number of provisions intended to lower the costs of some drugs covered under Medicare Part D and Medicare Part B and to limit Medicare beneficiaries’ out-of-pocket spending under the Medicare Part D benefit, (ii) [added: expanded utilization and pharmaceutical company restrictions under the 340B Drug Pricing Program ("340B program"), (iii)] cost-cutting measures by federal healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, MCOs and other institutional and governmental purchasers, [removed: (iii)] [added: (iv)] the grant of additional authority to governmental agencies to manage drug utilization and negotiate drug prices (including the implementation of the 2020 regulation issued by the U.S. federal government authorizing states and private parties to develop and implement programs to import certain prescription drugs from Canada and sell them in the U.S., and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, which eliminated the Medicaid Prescription Drug Rebate cap as of January 1, 2024), [removed: (iv) expanded utilization and pharmaceutical company restrictions under the 340B Drug Pricing Program ("340B program"),] (v) competition related to placements on applicable commercial and Medicare Part D formularies; (vi) changes to U.S. federal pharmaceutical coverage and reimbursement policies and practices, (vii) the increased purchasing power of entities that negotiate on behalf of Medicare, Medicaid and private sector beneficiaries, (viii) the increased scrutiny of drug manufacturers (including any additional review of [removed: BMS or Celgene] [added: the Company] by the [removed: House Oversight and Reform Committee),] [added: United States Congress),] (ix) reimbursement delays, (x) government price erosion mechanisms across Europe, Japan and in other countries resulting in deflation for pharmaceutical product pricing, (xi) collection delays or failures to pay in government-funded public hospitals outside the U.S., (xii) developments in technology and/or industry practices that could impact the reimbursement policies and practices of third-party payers, and (xiii) inhibited market access due to real or perceived differences in value propositions for our products compared to competing products.*
*In particular, the IRA [added: has and] will [added: continue to] have the effect of reducing prices and reimbursements for certain of our products, which could significantly impact our business.
Generally, these government prices apply nine years (for small molecule drugs) or 13 years (for [removed: biological products)] [added: biologics)] following FDA approval and will be capped at a statutory ceiling price that is likely to represent a significant discount from average prices to wholesalers and direct purchasers.
In January [removed: 2025,] [added: 2026,] the HHS selected [removed: Pomalyst] [added: Orencia] as a medicine subject to "negotiation" for government-set prices beginning in [removed: 2027.][added: 2028.]
It is possible that more of our products could be selected in future [removed: years,] [added: years based upon the selection criteria currently utilized by the HHS or potentially expanded future criteria, or that the "maximum fair price" for our previously selected products could be renegotiated, each of] which could, among other things, accelerate revenue erosion prior to expiry of intellectual property protections.
[removed: *Additionally,] [added: Additionally,] manufacturers who are found to have knowingly and intentionally overcharged 340B program covered entities could be subject to significant monetary penalties.
[removed: Over the course of] [added: In] the [removed: past few years,] [added: past,] Celgene had received inquiries from the Health Resources and Services Administration regarding the limited distribution networks for Revlimid, Pomalyst, and Thalomid and compliance with the 340B program.
Significant changes to our sales or pricing practices [removed: with* *regard] [added: with regard] to the distribution of drugs under the 340B program, [added: an inability to procure data sufficient to identify duplicate claims associated with the increasing volume of 340B program utilization] or any material changes in our U.S. payer channel mix, [added: including the commercialization of future products that may be highly utilized within the 340B program,] could have [removed: an] [added: additional] adverse [removed: effect] [added: effects] on our revenues and profitability.
Compounds or products may appear promising in development but fail to reach market within the expected [removed: or optimal] timeframe, or at all.
Furthermore, products or indications approved under the U.S. FDA’s Accelerated Approval Program may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory studies and such studies may not be [removed: successful.*][added: successful.]
Certain of our future key products may be required to be distributed in the U.S. [removed: through*][added: through a REMS program, as described in "Item 1.]
In addition, if certain acquired pipeline programs are canceled or we believe their commercial prospects have been reduced, we may recognize material non-cash impairment charges for those [removed: programs.][added: programs as we have done in the past.]
If the development of any of our key late-stage product candidates is delayed or discontinued or a clinical study does not meet one or more of its primary endpoints, our stock price could decline significantly and there may be an adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of [removed: operations.*][added: operations.]
Absent relevant patent protection for a product, once the [removed: data] [added: regulatory] exclusivity period expires, generic or alternative versions can be approved and marketed.*
Although we are confident in the strength of our intellectual property rights, it may be possible for generic drug companies to [removed: successfully] challenge our rights and launch their generic versions of our drugs [added: "at risk"] prior to the expiration of our intellectual property rights.
For example, following certain adverse judicial decisions in the [removed: UK, Finland] [added: UK] and [removed: Slovakia,] [added: Finland,] generic manufacturers have begun marketing generic versions of Eliquis in these countries, and may seek to market generic versions of Eliquis in additional countries in Europe, prior to the expiration of our patents, which may lead to additional infringement and invalidity [added: patent] actions [removed: involving Eliquis patents being filed] in [removed: various countries in] Europe.
Similarly, in the U.S., following patent settlements, certain companies have begun marketing generic lenalidomide pursuant to [removed: volume-limited licenses.][added: licenses, which as of January 31, 2026, are no longer volume-limited.*]
Lower-priced generics or biosimilars for BMS [removed: biologic products] [added: biologics] or competing biologics could negatively impact our volumes and prices.*
*In addition, both the U.S. Congress and the FDA have taken steps to promote the development and approval of generic drugs and biosimilar biologics, including by providing generic and biosimilar developers a private right of action to obtain sufficient quantities of drug samples from the reference product’s manufacturer in order to conduct testing necessary to obtain approval for generic or biosimilar [removed: products.*][added: products.]
*There is no assurance that a particular product will enjoy market exclusivity for the full time period that appears in the estimates disclosed in this [removed: 2024] [added: 2025] Form 10-K or that we assume when we provide our financial guidance.*
*The future growth of BMS is dependent on the market access, uptake and expansion for marketed brands, new product introductions, new indications, [removed: product extensions] [added: new formulations] and co-promotional activities with alliance partners.
[removed: We cannot predict with accuracy the timing or impact of the introduction] [added: *introduction] of competitive products that treat diseases and conditions like those treated by our products and product candidates.
Some of the difficulties, delays and disruptions include: (i) product seizures or recalls or forced closings of manufacturing plants; (ii) our failure, or the failure of any of our vendors or suppliers, to comply with cGMP and other applicable regulations or quality assurance guidelines that could lead to manufacturing shutdowns, product shortages or delays in product manufacturing; (iii) manufacturing, quality assurance/quality control, supply problems or governmental approval delays; (iv) [added: geopolitical factors in a specific country or region, including any new, or changes in or interpretations of existing, trade regulations, including for example, any new tariffs imposed in] the [added: jurisdictions in which we operate, or compliance requirements of other legislation; (v) the] failure of a supplier, including sole source or single source suppliers, to provide us with the necessary raw materials, supplies or finished goods within a reasonable timeframe and with required quality; [removed: (v)] [added: (vi)] the failure of a third-party manufacturer to supply us with bulk active or finished product on time; [removed: (vi)] [added: (vii)] construction or regulatory approval delays for new facilities or the expansion of existing facilities, including those intended to support future demand for our biologics products; [removed: (vii)] [added: (viii)] the failure to meet new and emerging regulations requiring products to be tracked throughout the distribution channels using unique identifiers to verify their authenticity in the supply chain; [removed: (viii)] [added: (ix)] other manufacturing or distribution issues, including limits to manufacturing capacity and changes in the types of products produced, such as biologics, physical limitations, labor disputes or shortages, or other business interruptions; [removed: (ix) geopolitical factors in a specific country or region, including any new, or changes in or interpretations of existing, trade regulations, including for example, any new tariffs imposed in the jurisdictions in which we operate, or compliance requirements of other legislation;] and (x) disruptions in supply chain continuity, including from market forces, natural disasters, global disease outbreaks or [removed: pandemics (including COVID-19),] [added: pandemics,] acts of war or terrorism or other unforeseeable or unavoidable events that materially impact one or more of our facilities or a critical supplier.*
*In addition, manufacturing processes for novel cell-based therapies, such as CAR-T cell therapies, [added: and radiopharmaceutical therapeutics in development] are still evolving, and our processes may be more complicated or more expensive than the approaches taken by our current and future competitors.
Logistical and shipment delays and other factors not in our control could prevent or delay the delivery of our product candidates and marketed products to [removed: patients.][added: patients, including for our radiopharmaceutical therapeutics, which have time-limited stability once manufactured.]
These laws and regulations control and regulate key aspects of our business, including, but not limited to: (i) market access, pricing controls and discounting; (ii) tax liabilities, returns and payments; (iii) imports and other trade restrictions; (iv) intellectual property protection and enforcement; (v) good practice guidelines and regulations; (vi) accounting standards; (vii) cybersecurity and data protection, storage and privacy, particularly in the EU and the U.S.; (viii) [added: artificial intelligence, machine learning, automated decision-making, data governance, and related technologies; (ix)] requirements for reporting payments and other value transfers to healthcare professionals (such as those provided under the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute); and [removed: (ix)] [added: (x)] compliance with anti-bribery and anti-corruption practices of the U.S. and other countries.*
If promulgated, such legislation could have resultant implications, costs or consequences for our business and how [removed: we*][added: we interact with these entities.]
[removed: *protection,] [added: Regulators are imposing new cybersecurity and data protection,] storage and privacy requirements, including new and greater monetary fines or penalties for privacy violations, and jurisdictions where we operate have passed, or continue to propose, data privacy legislation and or regulations.
*There is an increased focus by foreign, federal, state, and local regulatory and legislative [removed: bodies] [added: bodies,] investors and other stakeholders regarding environmental [added: sustainability and social impact] policies relating to climate change, regulating greenhouse gas emissions, carbon taxes, emissions trading schemes, sustainability, human rights, inclusion and [removed: diversity] [added: other policy] matters, and disclosure regarding the foregoing, many of which may be ambiguous, inconsistent, dynamic or conflicting.
If we do not meet, are perceived not to meet, or if stakeholders disagree with, our environmental, social and governance aspirational goals, targets or objectives, we risk negative stakeholder reaction, including from proxy advisory services, as well as damage to [removed: our brand and reputation, reduced demand for our products, inability to attract and retain employee talent or other negative impacts on our business and operations.*][added: our*]
[removed: *over longer periods of time and studies that identify biomarkers (objective characteristics that can indicate a particular response to a product or therapy) that are conducted] [added: Data generated] after [removed: obtaining marketing] [added: initial] approval [removed: for our products,] and regulatory changes to standards regarding safety, efficacy or [removed: labeling,] [added: labeling] may result in product label changes or other measures that could reduce the [removed: product's] [added: product’s] market acceptance and result in declining revenues.
*Third parties may illegally distribute and sell counterfeit versions of our products, which do not meet our rigorous manufacturing and testing [removed: standards.][added: standards and often do not contain the correct ingredients.]
The internet exposes patients to greater risk as it is a preferred vehicle for dangerous counterfeit offers and scams because of the anonymity it affords [removed: counterfeiters.*][added: illegal traders and counterfeiters, and its use can result in the circumvention of controls designed to protect patients.*]
*Thefts of inventory at warehouses, plants or while in-transit, which are then not properly stored and are later sold through unauthorized [removed: channels,] [added: channels that do not adhere to customary supply chain standards,] could adversely impact patient safety, our reputation and our business.
The inappropriate and/or unauthorized use of social media could cause brand damage or information leakage and may give rise to liability, including from the improper [added: promotion of a product or the improper] collection and/or dissemination of personally identifiable information from employees, patients, healthcare professionals or other stakeholders.
Further, the disclosure of non-public Company-sensitive information by our workforce or others, whether intentional or unintentional, through social media [added: and other messaging] channels could lead to loss of trade secrets or other intellectual property, as well as the Company’s commercially sensitive information.*
*As the cyber-threat landscape evolves, these attacks are growing in frequency, sophistication and intensity, and [removed: due*][added: due to the nature of some of these attacks, there is also a risk that they may remain undetected for a period of time.]
A significant breakdown, invasion, corruption, destruction or interruption of critical information technology [removed: systems or leak] [added: systems, including artificial intelligence programs that we utilize,] or [added: leak,] theft [added: or misuse] of proprietary, confidential or personal information could negatively impact operations.
We expect that Eliquis, Opdivo, [removed: Orencia] [added: Opdivo Qvantig, Orencia, Reblozyl] and Yervoy will represent a significant percentage of our revenue, earnings and cash flows during the next few years.
Royalties have continued to represent a significant percentage of our pretax income, including royalties related to [removed: the divestiture of our diabetes business (including the transfer of certain future royalty rights pertaining to Amylin, Onglyza* and Farxiga* product sales),] out-licensed intellectual property and the Merck patent infringement settlement.
In November 2025, the HHS announced the "maximum fair price" for a 30-day supply of Pomalyst, which applies to the U.S. Medicare channel effective January 1, 2027.
The effectuation of a "maximum fair price" pursuant to the IRA is a technically complex process that relies on newly developed systems that may experience*
*unforeseen disruptions.
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.*
*In December 2025, we announced the U.S. Government Agreement pursuant to which we agreed to, among other things: (i) provide Eliquis for free to the Medicaid program effective January 1, 2026; (ii) donate more than seven tons of Eliquis API to fill the U.S. Strategic Active Ingredient Reserve; (iii) enable direct-to-patient access to Sotyktu, Zeposia, Reyataz, Baraclude and Orencia for cash-paying patients at discounts approximately 80% off current list prices; (iv) adopt a more balanced pricing approach for new launches across developed nations; and (v) continue to expand domestic production.
In accordance with the U.S. Government Agreement, BMS will receive certain U.S. tariff relief until January 2029 and will not be subject to future pricing mandates in the United States, however, such exemptions may be terminated or may not be extended.
We remain subject to any current or future pricing mandates implemented outside of the United States, and it is possible that current or future pricing regulations may result in a material impact on our business and results of operations.
This agreement, and any potential future agreements with government entities, by us or our competitors, could result in reduced prices and reimbursement for certain of our or competing products and may impact our cash flows and results of operations.*
*In July 2025, the OBBBA was enacted which, among other things, aims to achieve efficiencies in U.S. federal government healthcare spending over the next decade, primarily within Medicaid.
We are continuing to assess the full scope of this legislation and its potential commercial implications, and it is possible that these changes may impact our cash flows and results of operations.*
*We participate in the 340B program, under which we must offer covered outpatient drugs to statutorily defined covered entities at no more than the 340B program “ceiling price”.
The expanded utilization of the 340B program in recent years has negatively affected our revenues and profit margins.

While pharmaceuticals are largely exempt from the tariffs imposed in 2025, such exemptions may be terminated or may not apply to any future tariffs.
In accordance with the U.S. Government Agreement, BMS will receive certain U.S. tariff relief until January 2029.
We continue to evaluate the impacts of tariffs on our business and results of operations, and it is possible that such tariffs, or future tariffs, may result in a material impact on our business and results of operations.*
For our radiopharmaceutical therapeutics, we utilize third-party suppliers that may still be developing appropriate processes, controls, technologies and facilities, particularly for large-scale production.

Certain amounts in this 2025 Form 10-K may not sum due to rounding.
Percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts.
In 2025, we have achieved multiple regulatory approvals across our portfolio, including the: (i) approval of *Breyanzi* for adults with relapsed or refractory FL and MCL in the EU, (ii) approval of *Camzyos* for the treatment of symptomatic obstructive HCM in Japan, (iii) approval of *Opdivo* + *Yervoy* as a first-line treatment of adult patients with unresectable or advanced HCC in both the U.S. and the EU, (iv) approval of *Opdivo* + *Yervoy* for first-line treatment of adults and pediatric patients 12 years and older with unresectable or metastatic MSI-High or dMMR colorectal cancer in the U.S. and Japan, (v) approval of *Opdivo* as a perioperative regimen for resectable high risk NSCLC in the EU, (vi) approval of *Opdivo Qvantig* for use across multiple adult solid tumors in the EU, and (vii) approval of *Breyanzi* for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory MZL in the U.S. Additionally, we received label updates from the FDA that have reduced or removed certain patient monitoring requirements associated with the use of *Camzyos*, *Breyanzi* and *Abecma*.
We continue to pursue activities to advance and expand our pipeline through our internal research and development efforts as well as through business development activities.
In 2025, the Company (i) acquired Orbital Therapeutics, which provided the Company with full rights to OTX-201, a preclinical *in vivo* CAR T-cell therapy currently in IND-enabling studies for autoimmune disease, (ii) entered into a strategic collaboration with BioNTech to co-develop and co-commercialize BioNTech's investigational bispecific antibody pumitamig (BNT327/BMS986545) across multiple solid tumor types, (iii) acquired a global exclusive license from Philochem for OncoACP3, a radiopharmaceutical therapeutic and diagnostic agent targeting prostate cancer, and (iv) expanded our development and manufacturing capabilities by opening a new radiopharmaceutical facility in Indianapolis, Indiana, which will support RPTs acquired in connection with the RayzeBio acquisition.
For additional information relating to our acquisitions, divestitures, licensing and other arrangements refer to "Item 8.
Alliances" and "Item 8.
As previously announced, our ongoing strategic productivity initiative includes acceleration of the delivery of medicines to patients by evolving and streamlining our enterprise operating model in key areas such as R&D, manufacturing, commercial and other functions.
We continue to expect to realize approximately $2.0 billion in cost savings by the end of 2027 in connection with the 2025 expansion of our ongoing strategic productivity initiative.
Demand increased across the Growth Portfolio and for *Eliquis*, which was offset by the impact of generics across the remainder of the Legacy Portfolio.
Additionally, revenues were impacted by higher U.S. government channel rebates in 2025.
The $7.87 change in GAAP EPS in 2025 was primarily due to lower Acquired IPRD charges, the impact of certain specified items, including lower amortization of acquired intangible assets and lower intangible asset impairment charges, and cost savings from our ongoing strategic productivity initiative in 2025.
In November 2025, the HHS announced the "maximum fair price" for a 30-day supply of *Pomalyst*, which applies to the U.S. Medicare channel effective January 1, 2027.
In December 2025, we announced the U.S. Government Agreement pursuant to which we agreed to, among other things: (i) provide *Eliquis* for free to the Medicaid program effective January 1, 2026; (ii) donate more than seven tons of *Eliquis* API to fill the U.S. Strategic Active Ingredient Reserve; (iii) enable direct-to-patient access to *Sotyktu*, *Zeposia*, *Reyataz*, *Baraclude* and *Orencia* for cash-paying patients at discounts approximately 80% off current list prices; (iv) adopt a more balanced pricing approach for new launches across developed nations; and (v) continue to expand domestic production.
This agreement, and any potential future agreements with government entities, by us or our competitors, could result in reduced prices and reimbursement for certain of our or competing products and may impact our cash flows and results of operations.
Further, the U.S. and other countries have recently imposed, and may continue to impose, new tariffs.
While pharmaceuticals are largely exempt from the tariffs imposed in 2025, such exemptions may be terminated or may not apply to any future tariffs.
In accordance with the U.S. Government Agreement, BMS will receive certain U.S. tariff relief until January 2029 and will not be subject to future pricing mandates in the U.S., however, such exemptions may be terminated or may not be extended.
In addition, we remain subject to any current or future pricing mandates implemented outside of the U.S. It is possible that such regulations may result in a material impact on our business and results of operations.
| Opdivo + Yervoy | | | August 2025 | | | Japan’s Ministry of Health Labour and Welfare approval of *Opdivo* + *Yervoy* for the treatment of unresectable advanced or recurrent microsatellite instability-high colorectal cancer. | | |
| Opdivo Qvantig | | | May 2025 | | | EC approval of *Opdivo Qvantig* for use across multiple adult solid tumors as monotherapy, monotherapy maintenance following completion of intravenous *Opdivo* plus *Yervoy* combination therapy, or in combination with chemotherapy or cabozantinib. | | |
| Opdivo | | | May 2025 | | | EC approval for perioperative regimen of neoadjuvant *Opdivo* and chemotherapy followed by surgery and adjuvant *Opdivo* for the treatment of resectable NSCLC at high-risk of recurrence in adult patients whose tumors have PD-L1 expression ≥1%. | | |

Our R&D strategy is designed to invest in the most promising science and to consistently execute in a way that translates that science into new medicines with the highest probability of success.
To execute this strategy, we focus on three key priorities: science, execution, and value.
We have a disease-focused strategy that incorporates lead and supporting assets and pursues high-impact medicines to advance standards of care across our core therapeutic areas.
To accelerate progress, we have taken steps to increase the probability of success in our clinical trials and are infusing artificial intelligence throughout our R&D process.
Together, these efforts enable us to prioritize programs more deliberately and effectively, delivering novel therapies for patients and driving long-term growth.
During 2025, we entered into a global strategic collaboration with BioNTech for the co-development and co-commercialization of pumitamig (BNT327/BMS986545), a potentially transformative PD-L1/VEGF-A bispecific that could set a new standard of care across multiple tumor types.
Additionally, we believe we have significant opportunity in radiopharmaceuticals as a new oncology modality with opportunities to advance RYZ101, RYZ401 and RYZ801.
Lastly, we have a growing, diverse neuroscience pipeline that includes several ongoing Phase III studies as well as several investigational programs aimed at advancing novel therapeutic approaches across neurological diseases.
We have established a strong foundation in IO with *Opdivo*, *Yervoy* and *Opdualag,* and have expanded our leadership in the area with the addition of *Opdivo Qvantig*.
In hematology, *Reblozyl,* continues to drive market share in the first line RS-positive and RS-negative settings in the U.S., and in cardiovascular diseases, *Camzyos* continues to provide benefits to patients with oHCM.
Additionally, in cell therapy, we continue to expand the range of B-cell malignancies treated by *Breyanzi*.
Together with our digital capabilities, including the deployment of artificial intelligence, we are enhancing commercial productivity through more effective clinician engagement and targeted patient outreach.
We remain committed to the strategic allocation of resources and investing in areas that maximize value and drive sustainable growth.
We continue to expect to realize approximately $2.0 billion in cost savings by the end of 2027 in connection with the 2025 expansion of our ongoing strategic productivity initiative.
The exit costs resulting from these actions are included in our updated 2023 Restructuring Plan.
- U.S. revenues decreased 2% in 2025 reflecting higher demand across the Growth Portfolio and for *Eliquis*, partially offset by the impact of generics on *Revlimid, Sprycel* and *Abraxane.* Additionally, U.S. revenues were impacted by higher government channel rebates in 2025.
Excluding the impacts of foreign exchange, international revenues increased 3%.
In 2024, we achieved multiple clinical and regulatory milestones across our portfolio including (i) approvals for *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; (ii) *Reblozyl's* 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; (iii) FDA approval of *Opdivo* *Qvantig* injection for subcutaneous use in most previously approved adult solid tumor *Opdivo* indications; (iv) 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; and (v) FDA approval and subsequent launch of *Cobenfy* for the treatment of schizophrenia in adults.
In 2024, we completed the following acquisitions: (i) Karuna, a biopharmaceutical company in the area of developing and delivering medicines, including *Cobenfy,* for psychiatric and neurological conditions; (ii) RayzeBio, a clinical-stage radiopharmaceutical therapeutics company with a pipeline of potentially first-in-class and/or best-in-class drug development programs; and (iii) Mirati, a commercial stage targeted oncology company, with a commercialized medicine, *Krazati*, and clinical programs in development.
We also entered into a strategic collaboration with SystImmune, to co-develop and co-commercialize izalontamab brengitecan (iza-bren or BL-B01D1), a bispecific topoisomerase inhibitor-based anti-body drug conjugate.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The $8.27 decrease in GAAP EPS in 2024 was primarily driven by a one-time, non-deductible Acquired IPRD charge resulting from the Karuna asset acquisition and SystImmune collaboration, which impacted full-year GAAP EPS by approximately $6.28 and the impact of certain specified items, primarily intangible asset impairments.
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 initial FDA approval, (ii) manufacturers to pay a rebate for Medicare Part B and Part D drugs when prices increase faster than inflation and (iii) the formation of the Part D Manufacturer Program which replaced the Part D CGDP and established a $2,000 cap for out-of-pocket costs for Medicare beneficiaries as of January 2025, with manufacturers being responsible for 10% of costs up to the $2,000 cap and 20% after that cap is reached.
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 the Trump administration will finalize the draft framework 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.
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 after December 31, 2022.
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.

| Abecma | | | March 2024 | | | EC approval of *Abecma* for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least two prior therapies, including an immunomodulatory agent, a proteasome inhibitor, and an anti-CD38 antibody and have demonstrated disease progression on the last therapy. | | |
Our R&D strategy is intended to ensure that we support scientific innovation, bringing first-in class and/or best-in-class medicines to patients at an accelerated speed in our core therapeutic areas, as we leverage our differentiated research platforms, including radiopharmaceutical therapy, targeted protein degradation and cell therapy.
We have a broad mid- to late-stage pipeline of ongoing Phase II and Phase III programs across our core therapeutic areas.
Over the next 24 months, we expect a number of registrational data readouts with the potential to deliver 10 or more new medicines and multiple additional indications over the next five years.
The acquisition of RayzeBio, a leader in the field of radiopharmaceuticals for solid tumor oncology, provided us with RYZ101, a late-stage asset, an investigational new drug engine and in-house manufacturing capabilities.
Lastly in neuroscience, with the addition of *Cobenfy*, we have a growing, diverse neuroscience pipeline that includes a range of investigational therapies that are being studied for their disease-modifying potential as well as critical symptomatic relief.
Together with our proven track record, rapidly advancing pipeline and increasing use of artificial intelligence, we are increasing our R&D productivity, enabling us to identify more high-quality candidates and increase their probability of reaching patients in need.
We have established a foundation in IO with *Opdivo*, *Yervoy* and *Opdualag* and received FDA approval for *Opdivo Qvantig* in December 2024 for multiple indications at launch.
*Reblozyl,* in first-line MDS-associated anemia, continues to drive market share within the larger first-line RS negative population.
We have an ongoing registrational trial to potentially expand into chronic anemia associated with myelofibrosis.
In cell therapy, we achieved important approvals for *Breyanzi* for patients with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL, FL and MCL, making *Breyanzi* the CAR-T cell therapy available to treat the broadest array of B-cell malignancies.
In cardiovascular diseases, *Camzyos* continues to provide benefits to patients with oHCM, with the potential expansion opportunity into nHCM.
Finally, in neuroscience, we launched *Cobenfy* for the treatment of schizophrenia in adults.
We expected to realize cost savings of approximately $1.5 billion by the end of 2025, which is primarily being reinvested to fund innovation and drive growth.
We have expanded our strategic productivity initiative and we now expect to deliver approximately $2.0 billion in additional annual cost savings by the end of 2027.
(a) Beginning in 2024, Puerto Rico revenues are presented as part of International revenues to align with management's review of the Company's financial results.
Prior period amounts have been recast to conform to the current presentation.
- U.S. revenues increased 9% in 2024 primarily due to higher demand within the Growth Portfolio, *Eliquis*, and *Pomalyst* partially offset by generic erosion in the Legacy Portfolio.
- International revenues in 2024 increased 1% primarily due to demand within the Growth Portfolio, partially offset by generic erosion within the Legacy Portfolio and foreign exchange impacts.
The negative foreign exchange impacts of 5% was primarily attributed to devaluation of the Argentine peso, which was partially offset by inflation-related local currency price increases.

Additionally, in the U.S., we recently announced direct-to-patient offerings for several products.
For example, the UK recently established a new scheme which sets an overall cap on the total annual growth in National Health Services (NHS) spending on branded medicines.
Sales that exceed this cap are returned to the government as a rebate from the pharmaceutical companies in the scheme.
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 have negatively impacted, and may continue to, negatively impact our results of operations (including intangible asset impairment charges), operating cash flow, liquidity and financial flexibility.
In November 2025, the HHS announced the "maximum fair price" for a 30-day supply of *Pomalyst*, which applies to the U.S. Medicare channel effective January 1, 2027.
It is possible that more of our products could be selected in future years based upon the selection criteria currently utilized by the HHS or potentially expanded future criteria, or that the "maximum fair price" for our previously selected products could be renegotiated.
In May 2025, President Trump issued an executive order entitled, "Delivering Most-Favored Nation Prescription Drug Pricing to American Patients," which, among various proposals, directs the HHS to facilitate direct-to-consumer purchasing programs for pharmaceutical manufacturers that sell their products to American patients at the most-favored-nation price and to communicate most-favored-nation price targets to manufacturers and propose a rulemaking plan to impose most-favored-nation pricing if “significant progress” is not made towards achieving such pricing.
In July 2025, the Trump administration sent letters to several pharmaceutical manufacturers, including BMS, which outlined steps that such manufacturers should take to advance certain objectives of the executive order.
In December 2025, we announced an agreement with the U.S. government (the "U.S. Government Agreement") pursuant to which we agreed to, among other things: (i) provide *Eliquis* for free to the Medicaid program effective January 1, 2026; (ii) donate more than seven tons of *Eliquis* API to fill the U.S. Strategic Active Ingredient Reserve; (iii) enable direct-to-patient access to *Sotyktu, Zeposia, Reyataz, Baraclude* and *Orencia* for cash-paying patients at discounts approximately 80% off current list prices; (iv) adopt a more balanced pricing approach for new launches across developed nations; and (v) continue to expand domestic production.
This agreement, and any potential future agreements with government entities, by us or our competitors, could result in reduced prices and reimbursement for certain of our or competing products and may impact our cash flows and results of operations.
Further, the U.S. and other countries have recently imposed, and may continue to impose, new tariffs.
While pharmaceuticals are largely exempt from the tariffs imposed in 2025, such exemptions may be terminated or may not apply to any future tariffs.
In accordance with the U.S. Government Agreement, BMS will receive certain U.S. tariff relief until January 2029 and will not be subject to future pricing mandates in the U.S., however, such exemptions may be terminated or may not be extended.
In addition, we remain subject to any current or future pricing mandates implemented outside of the U.S. It is possible that such regulations may result in a material impact on our business and results of operations.
In July 2025, the OBBBA was enacted which, among other things, aims to achieve efficiencies in U.S. federal government healthcare spending over the next decade, primarily within Medicaid.
Additionally, this legislation makes permanent many provisions of the TCJA and modifies certain rules, including within the international tax framework, thereby offering increased certainty for future business planning.
The OBBBA also permits businesses to immediately deduct up to 100% of their qualifying domestic R&D expenses in the year they are incurred for tax years beginning after December 31, 2024, and allows businesses to accelerate deductions (over a one- or two-year period) of domestic R&D expenses that were deferred from 2022 to 2024.
During 2025, we completed the construction of a new state-of-the-art cell therapy manufacturing facility in Leiden, Netherlands.
Additionally, we opened a new radiopharmaceutical facility in Indianapolis, Indiana during 2025.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Strategy.” In addition, we expect that our acquisitions of Karuna, RayzeBio and Mirati in 2024 will allow us to expand in neuroscience and oncology, and continue to position us as a leading biopharmaceutical company across our core therapeutic areas.

These PBMs control nearly 80% of the prescription market and are owned by payers UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, and Cigna, respectively.
Over half of the U.S. population now participates in some version of managed care.
MCOs can include medical insurance companies, medical plan administrators, health-maintenance organizations, Medicare Part D prescription drug plans, alliances of hospitals and physicians and other physician organizations.
PBMs are third parties that support formulary management and contracting for MCOs.
Most new products that we introduce compete with other products already on the market or products that are later developed by competitors.
Products that demonstrate fewer therapeutic advantages must compete for inclusion based primarily on price.
For example, in 2022, Germany reformed its pricing and reimbursement system to further restrain pharmaceutical spending by reducing its “free pricing” period and introducing new cost-containment measures on medicines based on their value assessment results, and use in combination with other medicines, and more.
For example, in recent years the FDA OCE established two projects to test novel approaches for more efficient regulatory review of oncology drugs: the Real-Time Oncology Review pilot program and the Assessment Aid.
Under the Assessment Aid pilot program, the FDA approved *Opdivo* given with three cycles of platinum-doublet chemotherapy on March 4, 2022 for the first-line treatment of adult patients with resectable NSCLC in the neoadjuvant setting.
This approval was achieved four months before the priority review PDUFA date in July 2022.
To develop a framework for concurrent review of supplemental oncology applications among multiple approval authorities, the OCE initiated Project Orbis.
Under Project Orbis, earlier approvals from the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”), Health Canada and the United Kingdom’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency were received on the combination of *Opdivo* given with three cycles of platinum-doublet chemotherapy in 2022.
The OIG has issued a series of guidelines to segments of the healthcare industry, including the 2003 Compliance Program Guidance for Pharmaceutical Manufacturers, which includes a recommendation that pharmaceutical manufacturers, at a minimum, adhere to the PhRMA Code, a voluntary industry code of marketing practices.
We subscribe to the PhRMA Code and have implemented a compliance program to address the requirements set forth in the guidance and our compliance with the healthcare laws.
In recent years, several legislative and policy proposals have been introduced in the U.S. to lower drug prices.
For further discussion of this legislation's impact, refer to “Item 7.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Executive Summary.” 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 the Trump administration will finalize the draft framework 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.

*Derivatives, Hedging and Revenue from Contracts with Customers*
In September 2025, the FASB issued amended guidance to refine the scope of derivative accounting and clarify the accounting for share-based noncash consideration from a customer in a revenue contract.
Among other provisions, the amendment excludes from derivative accounting non-exchange-traded contracts with underlyings that are based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties in the contract.
The Company is assessing the potential impact of the amended standard.
*Internal-Use Software*
In September 2025, the FASB issued amended guidance on internal-use software.
The guidance clarifies disclosure requirements and establishes new capitalization criteria based on management's authorization and funding commitment as well as the probability that a project will be completed and used for its intended function.
The amended guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim periods within those annual periods.
The Company is assessing the potential impact of the amended standard.
Early adoption is permitted.

BioNTech
In June 2025, BMS and BioNTech entered into a global strategic collaboration for the co-development and co-commercialization of pumitamig (BNT327/BMS986545), a bispecific antibody targeting PD-L1 and VEGF-A, which is currently being evaluated in several indications, including in CRC, ES-SCLC, NSCLC and TNBC.
The companies will jointly develop and commercialize pumitamig as monotherapy and in combination with other assets.
Both companies also have the right to independently develop pumitamig in further indications and combinations, including combinations of pumitamig with proprietary pipeline assets.
Subject to certain exceptions, BMS and BioNTech will share equally in global profits and losses.
BMS made an upfront payment to BioNTech of $1.5 billion, which was recorded as Acquired IPRD during 2025.
BioNTech will also receive $2.0 billion in aggregate of anniversary payments, which will be payable beginning in 2026 through 2028, provided that there is no prior termination of the agreement by BMS, and up to $7.6 billion of contingent development, regulatory and sales-based milestones.
*Segment Reporting*
In November 2023, the FASB issued amended guidance for improvements to reportable segment disclosures.
The revised guidance requires that a public entity disclose significant segment expenses regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (CODM), including public entities with a single reportable segment.
The expected value method is used to estimate royalties because a broad range of potential outcomes exist, except for instances in which such royalties relate to a license.
Except for certain product supply obligations which are considered distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations similar to the manner discussed above, all other performance obligations are not considered distinct and are combined into a single performance obligation since the transferred rights are highly integrated and interrelated to the obligation to jointly develop and commercialize the product with the third party.
As a result, upfront fees are recognized ratably over time throughout the expected period of the collaboration activities and included in Other (income)/expense, net as the license is combined with other development and commercialization obligations.

Beginning in 2024, Puerto Rico revenues are included in International revenues.
Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
BMS and 2seventy bio jointly develop and commercialize novel disease-altering gene therapy product candidates targeting BCMA.
The collaboration includes (i) a right for BMS to license any anti-BCMA products resulting from the collaboration, (ii) a right for 2seventy bio to participate in the development and commercialization of any licensed products resulting from the collaboration through a 50/50 co-development and profit share in the U.S. in exchange for a reduction of milestone payments, and (iii) sales-based milestones and royalties payable to 2seventy bio upon the commercialization of any licensed products resulting from the collaboration should 2seventy bio decline to exercise their co-development and profit sharing rights.
BMS exercised its option to license idecabtagene vicleucel (*Abecma*) in 2016 and 2seventy bio elected to participate in development and commercialization of *Abecma* in the U.S. in 2018.
The terms of the collaboration have since been amended to transfer substantially all manufacturing obligations to BMS and eliminate ex-U.S. milestones and royalties payable to 2seventy bio for *Abecma*.
In 2021, the FDA approved *Abecma* for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
Net product sales of *Abecma* in the U.S. were $242 million, $358 million and $297 million; and the related profit sharing costs were $43 million, $109 million and $49 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Cost reimbursements were not material.
Eisai
In 2024, BMS and Eisai agreed to end the global strategic collaboration for the co-development and co-commercialization of MORAb-202 due to the ongoing portfolio prioritization efforts within BMS.
All rights and obligations for MORAb-202 were transferred to Eisai, and BMS is to receive $90 million as part of the termination, which was included in Other (income)/expense, net during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, of which $85 million was received during the third quarter of 2024.
Asset Acquisition
*Cobenfy* is also in registrational trials for both adjunctive therapy to existing standard of care agents in schizophrenia and the treatment of psychosis in patients with Alzheimer’s Disease.

Intangible assets included $1.7 billion of indefinite-lived IPRD and $2.0 billion of R&D technology.
The estimated fair values for the indefinite-lived IPRD asset and the R&D technology were determined using an income approach valuation method.
