RESTRUCTURING RESTRUCTURING
2023 Restructuring Plan

In 2023, BMS commenced a restructuring plan to accelerate the delivery of medicines to patients by evolving and streamlining its enterprise operating model in key areas, such as R&D, manufacturing, commercial and other functions, to ensure its operating model supports and is appropriately aligned with the Company’s strategy to invest in key priorities. These changes primarily include (i) transforming R&D operations to accelerate pipeline delivery (ii) enhancing our commercial operating model, and (iii) establishing a more responsive manufacturing network and expanding our cell therapy manufacturing capabilities. Consistent with our prioritization and efficiency goals communicated earlier this year, BMS continues to execute on strategic productivity initiatives through portfolio prioritization and management of our operating costs. Total expected restructuring costs under the 2023 Restructuring Plan to be incurred through 2026 are approximately $1.5 billion. These costs consist primarily of employee termination costs, and to a lesser extent, site exit costs, including impairment and accelerated depreciation of property, plant and equipment.

Celgene and Other Acquisition Plans

Restructuring and integration plans were initiated to realize expected cost synergies resulting from cost savings and avoidance from the acquisitions of Celgene (2019), Turning Point (2022), Mirati (2024), RayzeBio (2024) and Karuna (2024). The remaining charges of approximately $500 million consist primarily of employee termination costs, IT system integration costs and to a lesser extent site exit costs, including impairment and accelerated depreciation of property, plant and equipment.
