BUSINESS Overview Amgen Inc. (including its subsidiaries, “Amgen” or the “Company”) is a global biotechnology company that discovers, develops, manufactures, and markets human therapeutics based on advances in cellular and molecular biology. On July 15, 2002, Amgen acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Immunex Corporation (“Immunex”) for stock and cash valued at $17.8 billion in a transaction accounted for as a business combination (see Note 3, “Immunex acquisition” to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Immunex was a leading biotechnology company dedicated to developing immune system science to protect human health. The acquisition has enhanced Amgen’s strategic position within the biotechnology industry by strengthening and diversifying its (1) product base and product pipeline in key therapeutic areas, and (2) discovery research capabilities in proteins and antibodies. The Company markets human therapeutic products in the areas of hematology, oncology, and inflammation. The Company’s key products include EPOGEN® (Epoetin alfa), Aranesp® (darbepoetin alfa), Neulasta® (pegfilgrastim), NEUPOGEN® (Filgrastim), and ENBREL® (etanercept), which is marketed under a co-promotion agreement with Wyeth. The Company’s other products include Kineret® (anakinra) and Stemgen® (Ancestim). EPOGEN® and Aranesp® stimulate the production of red blood cells. EPOGEN® is marketed in the United States for the treatment of anemia associated with chronic renal failure in patients on dialysis. Aranesp® is marketed in the United States, most countries in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand for the treatment of anemia associated with chronic renal failure, including patients on dialysis and patients not on dialysis. Aranesp® is also marketed in the United States for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced anemia in patients with non-myeloid malignancies. Aranesp® is marketed in Europe for the treatment of anemia in adult cancer patients with solid tumors receiving chemotherapy and for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced anemia in adult patients with non- myeloid malignancies. Neulasta® and NEUPOGEN® selectively stimulate the production of neutrophils, one type of white blood cell. Neulasta® is marketed in the United States to decrease the incidence of infection, as manifested by febrile neutropenia in patients with non-myeloid malignancies receiving myelosuppressive anti-cancer drugs associated with a clinically significant incidence of febrile neutropenia. Neulasta® is marketed in most countries in Europe for the reduction in the duration of neutropenia and the incidence of febrile neutropenia in patients with cytotoxic chemotherapy for malignancy. NEUPOGEN® is marketed in the United States, certain countries in Europe, Canada, and Australia for use in decreasing the incidence of infection in patients undergoing myelosuppressive chemotherapy. In addition, NEUPOGEN® is marketed in most of these countries for use in increasing neutrophil counts in various other treatment modalities. ENBREL® blocks the biologic activity of tumor necrosis factor (“TNF”) by competitively inhibiting TNF, a substance induced in response to inflammatory and immunological responses. ENBREL® is marketed in the United States for reducing the signs and symptoms, improving physical function, and inhibiting the progression of structural damage in patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis; and for reducing the signs and symptoms and inhibiting the progression of structural damage in patients with psoriatic arthritis. In addition, ENBREL is approved for reducing the signs and symptoms of moderately to severely active polyarticular-course juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in patients who have had an inadequate response to one or more disease-modifying medicines; and to treat the signs and symptoms in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis. The Company maintains a sales and marketing force in the United States, Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. In addition, Amgen has entered into licensing and/or co-promotion agreements to market certain of its products including Aranesp®, Neulasta®, NEUPOGEN®, and ENBREL® in certain geographic areas outside of the United States. 2 The Company focuses its research and development (“R&D”) efforts on human therapeutics delivered in the form of proteins, monoclonal antibodies, and small molecules in the areas of hematology, oncology, inflammation, metabolic and bone disorders, and neuroscience. The Company has research facilities in the United States, and has clinical development staff in the United States, Europe, Canada, Australia, and Japan. In addition to internal R&D efforts, the Company has acquired certain product and technology rights and has established R&D collaborations. The Company manufactures EPOGEN®, Aranesp®, Neulasta®, NEUPOGEN®, and ENBREL®. Amgen operates commercial manufacturing facilities located in the United States, Puerto Rico, and a packaging and distribution center in the Netherlands. Additional supply of ENBREL® is produced by our contract manufacturer, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma KG (“BI Pharma”). The Company was incorporated in California in 1980 and was merged into a Delaware corporation in 1987. Amgen’s principal executive offices are located at One Amgen Center Drive, Thousand Oaks, California 91320-1799. Products EPOGEN® (Epoetin alfa) EPOGEN® (Epoetin alfa) is Amgen’s registered trademark for its recombinant human erythropoietin product, a protein that stimulates red blood cell production.

  • Surprises in the Industry's Most Profitable Companies
    June 20, 2008 Surprises in the industry's most profitable companies Evaluate Vantage An analysis of the industry’s most profitable companies last year throws up some surprising names within the top ten – ViroPharma tops the league table with a net income margin of 47%, generating all its profits from sales of anti-bacterial agent Vancocin. Interestingly, two Indian generic firms feature, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries and Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, perhaps dispelling the notion that margins from selling generics are always low. Of the big pharma players, only those US groups with mature product portfolios, namely Pfizer, Merck & Co and Amgen, make it into the list. However, looking at forecast margins for the current year, the table below also reveals that Merck & Co drops out of the top ten, impacted by significantly lower sales from its cholesterol franchise. Alcon replaces Merck, suggesting one good reason why Novartis recently decided to fork out $11bn to acquire a 25% stake in the eye-care company. This analysis from EvaluatePharma is based on dividing normalised net income (excluding exceptional items) by the total revenues, to generate a net margin percentage. It only includes companies that have reported two consecutive years of profit, with incomes in excess of $50m in both 2007 and 2008. 2007 - top 10 companies Net Margin Net Income - Normalised ($m) Total Revenues ($m) 2007 2006 2007 2007 ViroPharma 47% 66 95 204 Sun Pharmaceutical Industries 44% 159 371 837 Gilead Sciences 38% 1,204 1,615 4,230 Biovail 35% 428 293 843 OSI Pharmaceuticals

  • Drug Pricing Investigation Abbvie—Humira and Imbruvica
    Drug Pricing Investigation AbbVie—Humira and Imbruvica Staff Report Committee on Oversight and Reform U.S. House of Representatives May 2021 oversight.house.gov EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This staff report describes the actions of AbbVie Inc. in repeatedly raising the prices of two of its blockbuster drugs: Humira (adalimumab) and Imbruvica (ibrutinib). These price hikes contributed to billions of dollars in corporate profits and enriched company executives while harming American patients and taxpayers. AbbVie pursued a variety of tactics to increase drug sales while raising prices for Americans, including exploiting the patent system to extend its market monopoly, abusing orphan drug protections to further block competition, and engaging in anticompetitive pricing practices. Humira, a drug used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases, is the highest grossing drug in the world. In 2020 alone, AbbVie collected $16 billion in U.S. net revenue for Humira. Today, AbbVie charges approximately $77,000 for a year’s supply of Humira—470% more than when the drug was launched in 2003. AbbVie and its partner Janssen Biotech, Inc., a Johnson & Johnson subsidiary, are the sole U.S. manufacturers of Imbruvica, a drug approved to treat mantle cell lymphoma and certain other forms of cancer. Under the companies’ collaboration agreement, AbbVie is responsible for marketing Imbruvica in the United States, including pricing decisions. Today, AbbVie and Janssen charge over $181,529 for a year’s supply of Imbruvica—82% more than when the drug was launched in 2013. Experts estimate that by 2026, Imbruvica will be the fourth highest grossing drug in the United States, in part because of price increases.
