## In brief

Amgen reported second quarter 2026 total revenues up 10% to $10.1 billion, GAAP EPS of $4.37 (up 65% from $2.65) and non-GAAP EPS of $6.29 (up 4% from $6.02).

Amgen's second-quarter revenue rose 10% to $10.1 billion, with product sales up 9% on volume growth. Repatha, EVENITY, TEZSPIRE, UPLIZNA and IMDELLTRA grew strongly, while Prolia and XGEVA fell as biosimilars launched. GAAP EPS rose 65% to $4.37 on higher revenues. Non-GAAP EPS rose 4% to $6.29 because operating expenses grew faster than revenue. Free cash flow was $3.5 billion, up from $1.9 billion a year earlier.
For full-year 2026, Amgen expects total revenues of $38.2 billion to $39.4 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $22.30 to $23.50. The main tension is that biosimilar competition, Medicare Part D price setting on Enbrel and rising MariTide obesity spending weigh on margins. The FDA's request to withdraw TAVNEOS and the partial clinical hold on subcutaneous blinatumomab studies add regulatory risk.

## Key takeaways

1. **Growth drivers delivered nearly 70% of product sales** Amgen said its six key growth drivers grew 26% year over year and generated nearly 70% of second-quarter product sales. Twenty-two products delivered at least double-digit sales growth.
2. **Biosimilars are eroding Prolia and XGEVA** Prolia sales fell 32% to $759 million and XGEVA fell 34% to $352 million as multiple biosimilars launched globally. Prolia volume was 20% lower and net selling price 12% lower.
3. **Non-GAAP EPS grew slower than revenue** Non-GAAP EPS rose 4% to $6.29 while total revenues rose 10%. Non-GAAP operating expenses increased 11%, and the non-GAAP operating margin fell 0.5 percentage points to 48.4%.
4. **Free cash flow rose to $3.5 billion** Free cash flow was $3.5 billion versus $1.9 billion a year earlier, helped by the final repatriation tax payment falling in the second quarter of 2025. Debt outstanding was $57.3 billion and there were no share repurchases.
5. **MariTide spending rises as regulatory issues emerge** R&D rose 10% non-GAAP, driven mainly by MariTide Phase 3 programs. Amgen is engaging the FDA on a request to withdraw TAVNEOS, and subcutaneous blinatumomab studies are under a partial clinical hold.
