About Amgen

Amgen is a leader in biotechnology-based human therapeutics. Flagship drugs include red blood cell boosters Epogen and Aranesp, immune system boosters Neupogen and Neulasta, and Enbrel and Otezla for inflammatory diseases. Amgen introduced its first cancer therapeutic, Vectibix, in 2006 and markets bone-strengthening drugs Prolia/Xgeva (approved 2010) and Evenity (2019). The acquisition of Onyx Pharmaceuticals bolstered the firm's therapeutic oncology portfolio with Kyprolis, which has been further strengthened with the launch of new drugs in blood cancers (Blincyto) and solid tumors (Imdelltra). The 2023 Horizon acquisition brought several rare-disease drugs, including thyroid eye disease drug Tepezza. Amgen also has a growing biosimilar portfolio.

Bulls say / Bears say

Amgen delivered strong Q2 2026 execution: revenue rose 10% to $10.1 billion, product sales increased 9%, 22 products posted double-digit growth, and free cash flow reached $3.5 billion. (Amgen)
Repatha is showing substantial momentum, with Q2 sales up 37% year over year to $953 million; recent VESALIUS-CV data also showed a 31% relative reduction in major cardiovascular events in a high-risk diabetic subgroup, supporting potential for broader use. (Amgen)
The pipeline offers meaningful long-term optionality: MariTide has multiple Phase 3 obesity studies underway, including quarterly-dosing and diabetes programs, while Imdelltra received European approval and subcutaneous Tepezza generated positive Phase 3 topline results. (SEC)
Prolia sales fell 32% year over year to $759 million in Q2 2026, while Xgeva declined 34% to $352 million; Amgen said multiple biosimilars have launched globally and more are expected, pointing to continuing erosion in a major franchise. (Amgen)
Pricing and volume pressure is broadening beyond bone health: Otezla sales fell 21% and Enbrel sales fell 4% in Q2 2026, with Enbrel’s net selling price down 22% partly due to Medicare Part D price setting and higher 340B mix. (Amgen)
Amgen remains highly leveraged, reporting $5.4 billion of current debt and $51.9 billion of long-term debt as of June 30, 2026; net interest expense was $1.33 billion in the first half, limiting financial flexibility for further acquisitions or shareholder returns. (SEC)
