THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (Jan. 30, 2020) - Amgen (NASDAQ:AMGN) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2019 versus comparable periods in 2018. Key results include:


•	For the fourth quarter, total revenues decreased 1% to $6.2 billion in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2018, reflecting the impact of biosimilar and generic competition against select products.


◦	Product sales declined 2% globally, while units grew double digits or better for Repatha^® (evolocumab),Parsabiv^®(etelcalcetide), BLINCYTO^® (blinatumomab), Aimovig^®(erenumab-aooe), Prolia^® (denosumab), Nplate^®(romiplostim) and Vectibix^® (panitumumab).


•	For the full year, total revenues decreased 2% to $23.4 billion, with product sales decreasing 1%.


•	GAAP earnings per share (EPS) decreased 5% to $2.85 in the fourth quarter driven by higher operating expenses, offset partially by lower weighted-average shares outstanding. GAAP EPS increased 2% to $12.88 for the full year driven by lower weighted-average shares outstanding, offset partially by lower operating income.


◦	For the fourth quarter, GAAP operating income decreased 14% to $2.0 billion and GAAP operating margin decreased 4.9 percentage points to 34.8%. For the full year, GAAP operating income decreased 6% to $9.7 billion and GAAP operating margin decreased 1.9 percentage points to 43.6%.


•	Non-GAAP EPS increased 6% in the fourth quarter to $3.64 and 3% to $14.82 for the full year benefited by lower weighted-average shares outstanding. The increase for the full year was offset partially by lower operating income.


◦	For the fourth quarter, non-GAAP operating income decreased 4% to $2.6 billion and non-GAAP operating margin decreased 0.7 percentage points to 44.6%. For the full year, non-GAAP operating income decreased 6% to $11.2 billion and non-GAAP operating margin decreased 2.4 percentage points to 50.2%.


•	The Company generated $8.5 billion of free cash flow for the full year versus $10.6 billion in 2018.

Operating Expense, Operating Margin and Tax Rate Analysis

On a GAAP basis:

•

Total Operating Expenses increased 8% in the fourth quarter and 2% for the full year. Cost of Sales margin increased 3 percentage points in the fourth quarter driven primarily by amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Otezla acquisition. For the full year, Cost of Sales margin increased 1.4 percentage points driven primarily by unfavorable product mix and amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Otezla acquisition, offset partially by lower royalties and lower manufacturing costs. Research & Development (R&D) expenses increased 11% in the fourth quarter and 10% for the full year driven by higher spending in research and early pipeline in support of our oncology programs. The full year was offset partially by lower spend in support of marketed programs. Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased 3% in the fourth quarter driven by lower spend for launched and marketed products and lower general and administrative expenses, offset partially by Otezla commercial-related expenses. For the full year, SG&A expenses decreased 3% driven by lower general and administrative expenses, the end of certain amortization of intangible assets in 2018 and lower spend for launched and marketed products, offset partially by Otezla commercial-related expenses. Other expenses increased in the fourth quarter driven primarily by restructuring costs in 2019. For the full year, other operating expenses decreased driven primarily by an impairment charge in 2018 of an intangible asset.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this news release, management has presented its operating results for the fourth quarters and full years of 2019 and 2018, in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and on a non-GAAP basis. In addition, management has presented its full year 2020 EPS and tax rate guidance in accordance with GAAP and on a non-GAAP basis. These non-GAAP financial measures are computed by excluding certain items related to acquisitions, restructuring and certain other items from the related GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the news release. Management has also presented Free Cash Flow (FCF), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for the fourth quarters and full years of 2019 and 2018. FCF is computed by subtracting capital expenditures from operating cash flow, each as determined in accordance with GAAP.

The Company believes that its presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to and facilitates additional analysis by investors. The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to enhance an investor’s overall understanding of the financial performance and prospects for the future of the Company’s ongoing business activities by facilitating comparisons of results of ongoing business operations among current, past and future periods. The Company believes that FCF provides a further measure of the Company’s liquidity.

The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures set forth in the news release in connection with its own budgeting and financial planning internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including to allocate resources and to evaluate results relative to incentive compensation targets. The non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, including those discussed below and more fully described in the Securities and Exchange Commission reports filed by Amgen, including our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and any subsequent periodic reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. Unless otherwise noted, Amgen is providing this information as of the date of this news release and does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this document as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from those we project. Our results may be affected by our ability to successfully market both new and existing products domestically and internationally, clinical and regulatory developments involving current and future products, sales growth of recently launched products, competition from other products including biosimilars, difficulties or delays in manufacturing our products and global economic conditions. In addition, sales of our products are affected by pricing pressure, political and public scrutiny and reimbursement policies imposed by third-party payers, including governments, private insurance plans and managed care providers and may be affected by regulatory, clinical and guideline developments and domestic and international trends toward managed care and healthcare cost containment. Furthermore, our research, testing, pricing, marketing and other operations are subject to extensive regulation by domestic and foreign government regulatory authorities. We or others could identify safety, side effects or manufacturing problems with our products, including our devices, after they are on the market. Our business may be impacted by government investigations, litigation and product liability claims. In addition, our business may be impacted by the adoption of new tax legislation or exposure to additional tax liabilities. If we fail to meet the compliance obligations in the corporate integrity agreement between us and the U.S. government, we could become subject to significant sanctions. Further, while we routinely obtain patents for our products and technology, the protection offered by our patents and patent applications may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by our competitors, or we may fail to prevail in present and future intellectual property litigation. We perform a substantial amount of our commercial manufacturing activities at a few key facilities, including in Puerto Rico, and also depend on third parties for a portion of our manufacturing activities, and limits on supply may constrain sales of certain of our current products and product candidate development. We rely on collaborations with third parties for the development of some of our product candidates and for the commercialization and sales of some of our commercial products. In addition, we compete with other companies with respect to many of our marketed products as well as for the discovery and development of new products. Discovery or identification of new product candidates or development of new indications for existing products cannot be guaranteed and movement from concept to product is uncertain; consequently, there can be no guarantee that any particular product candidate or development of a new indication for an existing product will be successful and become a commercial product. Further, some raw materials, medical devices and component parts for our products are supplied by sole third-party suppliers. Certain of our distributors, customers and payers have substantial purchasing leverage in their dealings with us. The discovery of significant problems with a product similar to one of our products that implicate an entire class of products could have a material adverse effect on sales of the affected products and on our business and results of operations. Our efforts to collaborate with or acquire other companies, products or technology, and to integrate the operations of companies or to support the products or technology we have acquired, may not be successful. A breakdown, cyberattack or information security breach could compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our systems and our data. Our stock price is volatile and may be affected by a number of events. Our business performance could affect or limit the ability of our Board of Directors to declare a dividend or our ability to pay a dividend or repurchase our common stock. We may not be able to access the capital and credit markets on terms that are favorable to us, or at all.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations

(In millions, except per-share data)

(Unaudited)

The following table presents the computations for GAAP and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share:



	Three months ended December 31, 2019				Three months ended December 31, 2018
	GAAP		Non-GAAP		GAAP		Non-GAAP
Net income	$	1,703	$	2,174	$	1,928	$	2,186

Weighted-average shares for diluted EPS	598		598		640		640

Diluted EPS	$	2.85	$	3.64	$	3.01	$	3.42

	Year ended December 31, 2019				Year ended December 31, 2018
	GAAP		Non-GAAP		GAAP		Non-GAAP
Net income	$	7,842	$	9,028	$	8,394	$	9,573

Weighted-average shares for diluted EPS	609		609		665		665

Diluted EPS	$	12.88	$	14.82	$	12.62	$	14.40



(a)		The adjustments related primarily to noncash amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations.

(b)		For the year ended December 31, 2018, the adjustment related primarily to an impairment charge associated with a nonkey in-process research and development asset.

(c)		For the year ended December 31, 2018, the adjustment related to the net gain associated with the Kirin-Amgen, Inc., share acquisition.

(d)		The tax effect of the adjustments between our GAAP and non-GAAP results takes into account the tax treatment and related tax rate(s) that apply to each adjustment in the applicable tax jurisdiction(s). Generally, this results in a tax impact at the U.S. marginal tax rate for certain adjustments, including the majority of amortization of intangible assets, whereas the tax impact of other adjustments, including restructuring initiatives, depends on whether the amounts are deductible in the respective tax jurisdictions and the applicable tax rate(s) in those jurisdictions. Due to these factors, the effective tax rates for the adjustments to our GAAP income before income taxes, for the three months and year ended December 31, 2019, were 17.3% and 22.2%, compared with 23.0% and 23.7% for the corresponding periods of the prior year.

(e)		The adjustments related primarily to certain acquisition items and prior-period items excluded from GAAP earnings.
