Note 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Basis of Consolidation

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ('BMS') prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the SEC and U.S. GAAP for interim reporting. Under those rules, certain footnotes and other financial information that are normally required for annual financial statements can be condensed or omitted. The Company is responsible for the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the 2020 Form 10-K. Refer to the Summary of Abbreviated Terms at the end of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for terms used throughout the document.

Business Segment Information

BMS operates in a single segment engaged in the discovery, development, licensing, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sale of innovative medicines that help patients prevail over serious diseases. A global research and development organization and supply chain organization are responsible for the discovery, development, manufacturing and supply of products. Regional commercial organizations market, distribute and sell the products. The business is also supported by global corporate staff functions. Consistent with BMS's operational structure, the Chief Executive Officer ('CEO'), as the chief operating decision maker, manages and allocates resources at the global corporate level. Managing and allocating resources at the global corporate level enables the CEO to assess both the overall level of resources available and how to best deploy these resources across functions, therapeutic areas, regional commercial organizations and research and development projects in line with our overarching long-term corporate-wide strategic goals, rather than on a product or franchise basis. The determination of a single segment is consistent with the financial information regularly reviewed by the CEO for purposes of evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting future periods. For further information on product and regional revenue, see '-Note 2. Revenue.'

Use of Estimates and Judgments

Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Accordingly, the results and trends in these unaudited consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of full year operating results. The preparation of financial statements requires the use of management estimates, judgments and assumptions. The most significant assumptions are estimates used in determining accounting for business combinations; impairments of intangible assets; sales rebate and return accruals; legal contingencies; and income taxes. Actual results may differ from estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications were made to conform the prior period consolidated financial statements to the current period presentation. Cash payments resulting from licensing arrangements, including upfront and contingent milestones previously included in operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows are now presented in investing activities. The adjustment resulted in an increase to net cash provided by operating activities and net cash used in investing activities of $267 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020. Proceeds received from the sale of equity investment securities previously presented in Divestiture and other proceeds in the consolidated statements of cash flows is now presented separately in Proceeds from sales of equity investment securities. These reclassifications did not have an impact on net assets or net earnings.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the FASB issued amended guidance on the accounting and reporting of income taxes. The guidance is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing exceptions related to certain intraperiod tax allocations and deferred tax liabilities; clarifying guidance primarily related to evaluating the step-up tax basis for goodwill in a business combination; and reflecting enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate. BMS adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2021. The amended guidance did not have a material impact on BMS's results of operations.

Note 2. REVENUE

The following table summarizes the disaggregation of revenue by nature:
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
Dollars in Millions 2021 2020 2021 2020
Net product sales $ 11,405 $ 9,817 $ 22,203 $ 20,358

Other revenues 139 149 272 284
Total Revenues $ 11,703 $ 10,129 $ 22,776 $ 20,910

Products are sold principally to wholesalers, distributors, specialty pharmacies, and to a lesser extent, directly to retailers, hospitals, clinics and government agencies. Customer orders are generally fulfilled within a few days of receipt resulting in minimal order backlog. Contractual performance obligations are usually limited to transfer of control of the product to the customer. The transfer occurs either upon shipment, upon receipt of the product after considering when the customer obtains legal title to the product, or upon infusion for cell therapies and when BMS obtains a right of payment. At these points, customers are able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the product.

Contract assets were not material at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Note 3. ALLIANCES

BMS enters into collaboration arrangements with third parties for the development and commercialization of certain products. Although each of these arrangements is unique in nature, both parties are active participants in the operating activities of the collaboration and exposed to significant risks and rewards depending on the commercial success of the activities. BMS may either in-license intellectual property owned by the other party or out-license its intellectual property to the other party. These arrangements also typically include research, development, manufacturing, and/or commercial activities and can cover a single investigational compound or commercial product or multiple compounds and/or products in various life cycle stages. The rights and obligations of the parties can be global or limited to geographic regions. BMS refers to these collaborations as alliances and its partners as alliance partners.

Selected financial information pertaining to alliances was as follows, including net product sales when BMS is the principal in the third-party customer sale for products subject to the alliance. Expenses summarized below do not include all amounts attributed to the activities for the products in the alliance, but only the payments between the alliance partners or the related amortization if the payments were deferred or capitalized.

Specific information pertaining to significant alliances including their nature and purpose; the significant rights and obligations of the parties; and specific accounting policy elections are discussed in the 2020 Form 10-K.

Eisai

In the second quarter of 2021, BMS and Eisai commenced an exclusive global strategic collaboration for the co-development and co-commercialization of MORAb-202, a selective folate receptor alpha antibody-drug conjugate being investigated in endometrial, ovarian, lung and breast cancers. MORAb-202 is currently in Phase I/II clinical trials for solid tumors.

BMS and Eisai will jointly develop and commercialize MORAb-202 in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Russia, Japan, China and certain other countries in the Asia-Pacific region (the 'collaboration territory'). Eisai will be responsible for the global manufacturing and supply. Profits, research and development and commercialization costs are shared in the collaboration territories. BMS will be responsible for development and commercialization outside of the collaboration territory and will pay a royalty on those sales.

A $650 million upfront collaboration fee was included in Research and development expense in the second quarter of 2021 and paid in the third quarter of 2021. BMS is also obligated to pay up to $2.5 billion upon the achievement of contingent development, regulatory and sales-based milestones.

Note 6. RESTRUCTURING

Celgene Acquisition Plan

In 2019, a restructuring and integration plan was implemented as an initiative to realize sustainable run rate synergies resulting from cost savings and avoidance from the Celgene acquisition which is currently expected to be approximately $3.0 billion. The synergies are expected to be realized in Cost of products sold (10%), Marketing, selling and administrative expenses (55%) and Research and development expenses (35%). Charges of approximately $3.0 billion are expected to be incurred through 2022. Cumulative charges of approximately $2.3 billion have been recognized including integration planning and execution expenses, employee termination benefit costs and accelerated stock-based compensation, contract termination costs and other shutdown costs associated with site exits. Cash outlays in connection with these actions are expected to be approximately $2.5 billion. Employee workforce reductions were approximately 240 and 900 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

MyoKardia Acquisition Plan

In 2020, a restructuring and integration plan was initiated to realize expected cost synergies resulting from cost savings and avoidance from the MyoKardia acquisition. Charges of approximately $150 million are expected to be incurred through 2022, and consist of integration planning and execution expenses, employee termination benefit costs and other costs. Cumulative charges of approximately $95 million have been recognized for these actions.

Company Transformation

In 2016, a restructuring plan was announced to evolve and streamline BMS's operating model. Cumulative charges of approximately $1.5 billion were recognized for these actions since the announcement. Actions under the plan were completed as of December 31, 2020.

Note 7. INCOME TAXES

Dollars in Millions 2021 2020 2021 2020
Earnings Before Income Taxes $ 1,553 $ 1,627 $ 4,083 $ 1,323
Provision for Income Taxes 492 1,707 993 2,169
Effective Tax Rate 31.7 % 104.9 % 24.3 % 163.9 %

Income taxes in interim periods are determined based on the estimated annual effective tax rates and the tax impact of discrete items that are reflected immediately. The effective tax rates in 2021 and 2020 were impacted by low jurisdictional tax rates attributed to the unwinding of inventory fair value adjustments and intangible asset amortization and contingent value rights fair value adjustments that are not taxable or deductible. The three and six months ended June 30, 2020 includes an $853 million deferred tax charge resulting from an internal transfer of certain intangible assets to the U.S. and an additional $255 million GILTI tax charge upon finalization of the Otezla* divestiture tax consequences with tax authorities. Additional changes to the effective tax rate may occur in future periods due to various reasons, including changes to the estimated pretax earnings mix and tax reserves and revised interpretations or changes to the relevant tax code.

It is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2021 could decrease in the range of approximately $430 million to $480 million in the next twelve months as a result of the settlement of certain tax audits and other events. The expected change in unrecognized tax benefits may result in the payment of additional taxes, adjustment of certain deferred taxes and/or recognition of tax benefits.

BMS is currently under examination by a number of tax authorities, which have proposed or are considering proposing material adjustments to tax positions for issues such as transfer pricing, certain tax credits and the deductibility of certain expenses. As previously disclosed, BMS received several notices of proposed adjustments from the IRS related to transfer pricing and other tax positions for the 2008 to 2012 tax years. BMS disagrees with the IRS's positions and continues to work cooperatively with the IRS to resolve these open tax audits. It is reasonably possible that new issues will be raised by tax authorities that may increase unrecognized tax benefits; however, an estimate of such increases cannot reasonably be made at this time. BMS believes that it has adequately provided for all open tax years by tax jurisdiction.

Contingent consideration liability:
Contingent value rights 10 - - 530 - -
Other acquisition related contingent consideration - - 67 - - 78

As further described in 'Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data-Note 9. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements' in the Company's 2020 Form 10-K, the Company's fair value estimates use inputs that are either (1) quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets (Level 1 inputs); (2) observable prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (Level 2 inputs); or (3) unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

Contingent consideration obligations are recorded at their estimated fair values and these obligations are revalued each reporting period until the related contingencies are resolved. The contingent value rights are adjusted to fair value using the traded price of the securities at the end of each reporting period. The fair value measurements for other contingent consideration liabilities are estimated using probability-weighted discounted cash flow approaches that are based on significant unobservable inputs related to product candidates acquired in business combinations and are reviewed quarterly. These inputs include, as applicable, estimated probabilities and timing of achieving specified development and regulatory milestones and the discount rate used to calculate the present value of estimated future payments. Significant changes which increase or decrease the probabilities of achieving the related development and regulatory events or shorten or lengthen the time required to achieve such events would result in corresponding increases or decreases in the fair values of these obligations. The fair value of other acquisition related contingent consideration as of June 30, 2021 was calculated using the following significant unobservable inputs:
Ranges (weighted average) utilized as of:
Inputs June 30, 2021
Discount rate
0.3% to 1.3% (0.6%)

Qualifying Hedges and Non-Qualifying Derivatives

Cash Flow Hedges - Foreign currency forward contracts are used to hedge certain forecasted intercompany inventory purchases and sales transactions and certain foreign currency transactions. The fair value for contracts designated as cash flow hedges are temporarily reported in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and included in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. The net gain or loss on foreign currency forward contracts is expected to be reclassified to net earnings (primarily included in Cost of products sold and Other (income)/expense, net) within the next 12 months. The notional amount of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts was primarily attributed to the euro of $3.1 billion and Japanese yen of $1.1 billion at June 30, 2021.

The earnings impact related to discontinued cash flow hedges and hedge ineffectiveness was not material during all periods presented. Cash flow hedge accounting is discontinued when the forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring within 60 days after the originally forecasted date or when the hedge is no longer effective. Assessments to determine whether derivatives designated as qualifying hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of hedged items are performed at inception and on a quarterly basis. Foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments are used to offset exposures in certain foreign currency denominated assets, liabilities and earnings. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in earnings as they occur.

14


BMS may hedge a portion of its future foreign currency exposure by utilizing a strategy that involves both a purchased local currency put option and a written local currency call option that are accounted for as hedges of future sales denominated in that local currency. Specifically, BMS sells (or writes) a local currency call option and purchases a local currency put option with the same expiration dates and local currency notional amounts but with different strike prices. The premium collected from the sale of the call option is equal to the premium paid for the purchased put option, resulting in no net premium being paid. This combination of transactions is generally referred to as a 'zero-cost collar.' The expiration dates and notional amounts correspond to the amount and timing of forecasted foreign currency sales. If the U.S. Dollar weakens relative to the currency of the hedged anticipated sales, the purchased put option value reduces to zero and BMS benefits from the increase in the U.S. Dollar equivalent value of our anticipated foreign currency cash flows; however, this benefit would be capped at the strike level of the written call, which forms the upper end of the collar.

Net Investment Hedges -Non-U.S. Dollar borrowings of €950 million ($1.1 billion) at June 30, 2021 are designated as net investment hedges to hedge euro currency exposures of the net investment in certain foreign affiliates and are recognized in long-term debt. The effective portion of foreign exchange gain on the remeasurement of euro debt was included in the foreign currency translation component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss with the related offset in long-term debt.

Cross-currency interest rate swap contracts of $400 million at June 30, 2021 are designated to hedge Japanese yen currency exposure of BMS's net investment in its Japan subsidiaries. Contract fair value changes are recorded in the foreign currency translation component of Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss) with a related offset in Other non-current assets or Other non-current liabilities.

Fair Value Hedges -Fixed to floating interest rate swap contracts are designated as fair value hedges and used as an interest rate risk management strategy to create an appropriate balance of fixed and floating rate debt. The contracts and underlying debt for the hedged benchmark risk are recorded at fair value. The effective interest rate for the contracts is one-month LIBOR (0.10% as of June 30, 2021) plus an interest rate spread of 4.6%. Gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value of the underlying debt attributable to the hedged benchmark interest rate risk are recorded in interest expense with an associated offset to the carrying value of debt. Since the specific terms and notional amount of the swap are intended to align with the debt being hedged, all changes in fair value of the swap are recorded in interest expense with an associated offset to the derivative asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheet. As a result, there was no net impact in earnings. If the underlying swap is terminated prior to maturity, then the fair value adjustment to the underlying debt is amortized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt.

In the first quarter of 2021, BMS purchased aggregate principal amount of $3.5 billion of certain of its debt securities for approximately $4.0 billion of cash in a series of tender offers and 'make whole' redemptions. In connection with these transactions, a $281 million loss on debt redemption was recognized based on the carrying value of the debt and included in Other (income)/expense, net. In addition, the $500 million 2.875% Notes matured and were repaid.

In the second quarter of 2021, the $1.0 billion 2.550% Notes matured and were repaid.

Interest payments were $807 million and $845 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, net of amounts related to interest rate swap contracts.

As of June 30, 2021, BMS had four separate revolving credit facilities totaling $6.0 billion, which consisted of a 364-day $2.0 billion facility expiring in January 2022, a three-year $1.0 billion facility expiring in January 2022 and two five-year $1.5 billion facilities that were extended to September 2025 and July 2026, respectively. The facilities provide for customary terms and conditions with no financial covenants and may be used to provide backup liquidity for BMS's commercial paper borrowings and are extendable annually by one year on the anniversary date with the consent of the lenders. No borrowings were outstanding under any revolving credit facility at June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

In the second quarter of 2021, a $230 million IPRD impairment charge was recorded in Research and development expense following a decision to discontinue development of an investigational compound in connection with the prioritization of current pipeline opportunities. The compound was being studied as a potential treatment for fibrotic diseases and was acquired in the acquisition of Celgene. The charge represented a full write-down based on the estimated fair value determined using discounted cash flow projections.

In the first quarter of 2021, InrebicEU regulatory approval milestones of $300 million were achieved resulting in a $385 million increase to the acquired marketed product rights intangible asset, after establishing the applicable deferred tax liability. An impairment charge of $315 million was recognized in Cost of products sold as the carrying value of this asset exceeded the projected undiscounted cash flows of the asset. The charge was equal to the excess of the asset's carrying value over its estimated fair value using discounted cash flow projections.

BMS has a share repurchase program, authorized by its Board of Directors, allowing for repurchases of its shares. The share repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any specific number of shares, does not have a specific expiration date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Treasury stock is recognized at the cost to reacquire the shares. Shares issued from treasury are recognized utilizing the first-in first-out method.

The outstanding share repurchase authority authorization under the program was $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2020. In January 2021, the Board of Directors approved an increase of $2.0 billion to the share repurchase authorization for BMS's common stock. BMS repurchased approximately 47 million shares of its common stock for $3.0 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The remaining share repurchase capacity under the share repurchase program was approximately $3.4 billion as of June 30, 2021.

BMS repurchased 1.4 million shares of its common stock for $81 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

20


In the fourth quarter of 2019, BMS executed accelerated share repurchase ('ASR') agreements to repurchase an aggregate $7 billion of common stock. The ASR was funded with cash on-hand. In the fourth quarter of 2019, approximately 99 million shares of common stock (80% of the $7 billion aggregate repurchase price) were received by BMS and included in treasury stock. In the second quarter of 2020, the agreement was settled and approximately 16 million shares of common stock were received by BMS and transferred to treasury stock.

Note 17. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES

BMS and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in various lawsuits, claims, government investigations and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These claims or proceedings can involve various types of parties, including governments, competitors, customers, suppliers, service providers, licensees, employees, or shareholders, among others. These matters may involve patent infringement, antitrust, securities, pricing, sales and marketing practices, environmental, commercial, contractual rights, licensing obligations, health and safety matters, consumer fraud, employment matters, product liability and insurance coverage, among others. The resolution of these matters often develops over a long period of time and expectations can change as a result of new findings, rulings, appeals or settlement arrangements. Legal proceedings that are significant or that BMS believes could become significant or material are described below.

While BMS does not believe that any of these matters, except as otherwise specifically noted below, will have a material adverse effect on its financial position or liquidity as BMS believes it has substantial defenses in the matters, the outcomes of BMS's legal proceedings and other contingencies are inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. There can be no assurance that there will not be an increase in the scope of one or more of these pending matters or any other or future lawsuits, claims, government investigations or other legal proceedings will not be material to BMS's financial position, results of operations or cash flows for a particular period. Furthermore, failure to enforce BMS's patent rights would likely result in substantial decreases in the respective product revenues from generic competition.

22


Unless otherwise noted, BMS is unable to assess the outcome of the respective matters nor is it able to estimate the possible loss or range of losses that could potentially result for such matters. Contingency accruals are recognized when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of the related loss can be reasonably estimated. Developments in legal proceedings and other matters that could cause changes in the amounts previously accrued are evaluated each reporting period. For a discussion of BMS's tax contingencies, see '-Note 7. Income Taxes'.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Anti-PD-1 Antibody Litigation
In September 2015, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute ('Dana-Farber') filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts seeking to correct the inventorship on up to six related U.S. patents directed to methods of treating cancer using PD-1 and PD-L1 antibodies. Specifically, Dana-Farber is seeking to add two scientists as inventors to these patents. In October 2017, Pfizer was allowed to intervene in this case alleging that one of the scientists identified by Dana-Farber was employed by a company eventually acquired by Pfizer during the relevant period. In February 2019, BMS settled the lawsuit with Pfizer. A bench trial in the lawsuit with Dana-Farber took place in February 2019. In May 2019, the District Court issued an opinion ruling that the two scientists should be added as inventors to the patents, which was affirmed on appeal. In May 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to consider the case. In June 2019, Dana-Farber filed a new lawsuit in the District of Massachusetts against BMS seeking damages as a result of the Court's decision adding the scientists as inventors. In February 2021, BMS filed a motion to dismiss the complaint.

CAR T
In October 2017, Juno and Sloan Kettering Institute for Cancer Research ('SKI') filed a complaint for patent infringement against Kite Pharma, Inc. ('Kite') in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. The complaint alleged that Kite's Yescarta*product infringes certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 7,446,190 (the ''190 Patent') concerning CAR T cell technologies. Kite filed an answer and counterclaims asserting non-infringement and invalidity of the '190 Patent. In December 2019, following an eight-day trial, the jury rejected Kite's defenses, finding that Kite willfully infringed the '190 Patent and awarding to Juno and SKI a reasonable royalty consisting of a $585 million upfront payment and a 27.6% running royalty on Kite's sales of Yescarta*through the expiration of the '190 Patent in August 2024. In January 2020, Kite renewed its previous motion for judgment as a matter of law and also moved for a new trial, and Juno filed a motion seeking enhanced damages, supplemental damages, ongoing royalties, and prejudgment interest. In March 2020, the Court denied both of Kite's motions in their entirety. In April 2020, the Court granted in part Juno's motion and entered a final judgment awarding to Juno and SKI approximately $1.2 billion in royalties, interest and enhanced damages and a 27.6% running royalty on Kite's sales of Yescarta* from December 13, 2019 through the expiration of the '190 Patent in August 2024. In April 2020, Kite appealed the final judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and the Court held an oral hearing on July 6, 2021.

Eliquis- Europe
In November 2020 and January 2021, Sandoz Limited ('Sandoz') and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. ('Teva Limited'), respectively, filed lawsuits in the United Kingdom seeking revocation of the UK apixaban composition of matter patent and related Supplementary Protection Certificate. BMS subsequently filed counterclaims for infringement in both actions. A trial is scheduled to begin in early 2022.

There are similar lawsuits filed in the Republic of Ireland, the Netherlands and Sweden seeking revocation of a composition of matter patent relating to Eliquis.

Additional infringement and invalidity actions involving Eliquispatents may be filed in various countries in Europe in the coming months.

Eliquis- U.S.
In 2017, BMS received Notice Letters from twenty-five generic companies notifying BMS that they had filed aNDAs containing paragraph IV certifications seeking approval of generic versions of Eliquis. As a result, twoEliquispatents listed in the FDA Orange Book are being challenged: the composition of matter patent claiming apixaban specifically and a formulation patent. In response, BMS, along with its partner Pfizer, initiated patent infringement actions under the Hatch-Waxman Act against all generic filers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware in April 2017. In August 2017, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted patent term restoration to the composition of matter patent to November 2026, thereby restoring the term of the Eliquiscomposition of matter patent, which is BMS's basis for projected LOE. BMS settled with a number of aNDA filers. These settlements do not affect BMS's projected LOE for Eliquis. A trial with the remaining aNDA filers took place in late 2019. In August 2020, the U.S. District Court issued a decision finding that the remaining aNDA filers' products infringed the Eliquiscomposition of matter and formulation patents and that both Eliquispatents are not invalid. The remaining aNDA filers have appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The oral argument for the appeal is scheduled to occur in September 2021.

Plavix*- Australia
Sanofi was notified that, in August 2007, GenRx Proprietary Limited ('GenRx') obtained regulatory approval of an application for clopidogrel bisulfate 75mg tablets in Australia. GenRx, formerly a subsidiary of Apotex Inc., subsequently changed its name to Apotex ('GenRx-Apotex'). In August 2007, GenRx-Apotex filed an application in the Federal Court of Australia seeking revocation of Sanofi's Australian Patent No. 597784 (Case No. NSD 1639 of 2007). Sanofi filed counterclaims of infringement and sought an injunction. On September 21, 2007, the Federal Court of Australia granted Sanofi's injunction. A subsidiary of BMS was subsequently added as a party to the proceedings. In February 2008, a second company, Spirit Pharmaceuticals Pty. Ltd., also filed a revocation suit against the same patent. This case was consolidated with the GenRx-Apotex case. On August 12, 2008, the Federal Court of Australia held that claims of Patent No. 597784 covering clopidogrel bisulfate, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, and taurocholate salts were valid. The Federal Court also held that the process claims, pharmaceutical composition claims, and claim directed to clopidogrel and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts were invalid. BMS and Sanofi filed notices of appeal in the Full Court of the Federal Court of Australia ('Full Court') appealing the holding of invalidity of the claim covering clopidogrel and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, process claims, and pharmaceutical composition claims. GenRx-Apotex appealed the holding of validity of the clopidogrel bisulfate, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, and taurocholate claims. On September 29, 2009, the Full Court held all of the claims of Patent No. 597784 invalid. In March 2010, the High Court of Australia denied a request by BMS and Sanofi to hear an appeal of the Full Court decision. The case was remanded to the Federal Court for further proceedings related to damages sought by GenRx-Apotex. BMS and GenRx-Apotex settled, and the GenRx-Apotex case was dismissed. The Australian government intervened in this matter seeking maximum damages up to 449 million AUD ($341 million), plus interest, which would be split between BMS and Sanofi, for alleged losses experienced for paying a higher price for branded Plavix*during the period when the injunction was in place. BMS and Sanofi dispute that the Australian government is entitled to any damages. A trial was concluded in September 2017. In April 2020, the Federal Court issued a decision dismissing the Australian government's claim for damages. In May 2020, the Australian government appealed the Federal Court's decision and an appeal hearing concluded in February 2021.

PRICING, SALES AND PROMOTIONAL PRACTICES LITIGATION

Plavix*State Attorneys General Lawsuits
BMS and certain Sanofi entities are defendants in consumer protection actions brought by the attorneys general of Hawaii and New Mexico relating to the labeling, sales and/or promotion of Plavix*. A trial in the Hawaii matter occurred in 2020. In February 2021, the Court issued a decision against Sanofi and BMS, imposing penalties in the total amount of $834 million, with $417 million attributed to BMS. Sanofi and BMS disagree with the decision and are appealing it. BMS remains confident in the merits of its case and its likelihood of success on appeal and BMS does not believe establishing a reserve is warranted for this matter. A trial in the New Mexico matter is scheduled to begin in April 2022.

25


PRODUCT LIABILITY LITIGATION

BMS is a party to various product liability lawsuits. Plaintiffs in these cases seek damages and other relief on various grounds for alleged personal injury and economic loss. As previously disclosed, in addition to lawsuits, BMS also faces unfiled claims involving its products.

Abilify*
BMS and Otsuka are co-defendants in product liability litigation related to Abilify*. Plaintiffs allege Abilify*caused them to engage in compulsive gambling and other impulse control disorders. There have been over 2,500 cases filed in state and federal courts and additional cases are pending in Canada. The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation consolidated the federal court cases for pretrial purposes in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida. In February 2019, BMS and Otsuka entered into a master settlement agreement establishing a proposed settlement program to resolve all Abilify*compulsivity claims filed as of January 28, 2019 in the MDL as well as various state courts, including California and New Jersey. To date, approximately 2,700 cases, comprising approximately 3,900 plaintiffs, have been dismissed based on participation in the settlement program or failure to comply with settlement related court orders. In the U.S., less than 20 cases remain pending on behalf of plaintiffs, who either chose not to participate in the settlement program or filed their claims after the settlement cut-off date. There are eleven cases pending in Canada (four class actions, seven individual injury claims). Out of the eleven cases, only two are active (the class actions in Quebec and Ontario). Both class actions have now been certified and will proceed separately, subject to a pending appeal of the Ontario class certification decision.

Byetta*
Amylin, a former subsidiary of BMS, and Lilly are co-defendants in product liability litigation related to Byetta*.As of June 2021, there are approximately 590 separate lawsuits pending on behalf of approximately 2,250 active plaintiffs (including pending settlements), which include injury plaintiffs as well as claims by spouses and/or other beneficiaries, in various courts in the U.S. The majority of these cases have been brought by individuals who allege personal injury sustained after using Byetta*, primarily pancreatic cancer, and, in some cases, claiming alleged wrongful death. The majority of cases are pending in Federal Court in San Diego in an MDL or in a coordinated proceeding in California Superior Court in Los Angeles ('JCCP'). In April 2020 the defendants filed a motion for summary judgment based on federal preemption and a motion for summary judgment based on the absence of general causation evidence in the MDL and JCCP. Both motions were granted in March 2021 and April 2021, respectively. The orders will result in the dismissal of all claims alleging an injury of pancreatic cancer in the MDL and JCCP. Plaintiffs have appealed the MDL order and may seek appeals in the JCCP. BMS sold Byetta* to AstraZeneca in February 2014 as part of BMS's global diabetes business divestiture and any additional liability to Amylin with respect to Byetta* is expected to be shared with AstraZeneca.

Onglyza*
BMS and AstraZeneca are co-defendants in product liability litigation related to Onglyza*. Plaintiffs assert claims, including claims for wrongful death, as a result of heart failure or other cardiovascular injuries they allege were caused by their use of Onglyza*. As of June 2021, claims are pending in state and federal court on behalf of approximately 270 individuals who allege they ingested the product and suffered an injury. In February 2018, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation ordered all federal cases to be transferred to an MDL in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky. A significant majority of the claims are pending in the MDL. As part of BMS's global diabetes business divestiture, BMS sold Onglyza*to AstraZeneca in February 2014 and any potential liability with respect to Onglyza*is expected to be shared with AstraZeneca.

SECURITIES LITIGATION

BMS Securities Class Action
Since February 2018, two separate putative class action complaints were filed in the U.S. District for the Northern District of California and in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against BMS, BMS's Chief Executive Officer, Giovanni Caforio, BMS's Chief Financial Officer at the time, Charles A. Bancroft and certain former and current executives of BMS. The case in California has been voluntarily dismissed. The remaining complaint alleges violations of securities laws for BMS's disclosures related to the CheckMate-026 clinical trial in lung cancer. In September 2019, the Court granted BMS's motion to dismiss, but allowed the plaintiffs leave to file an amended complaint. In October 2019, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. In September 2020, the Court granted BMS's motion to dismiss the amended complaint with prejudice. The plaintiffs appealed the Court's decision in October 2020.

Celgene Securities Class Action
Beginning in March 2018, two putative class actions were filed against Celgene and certain of its officers in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey (the 'Celgene Securities Class Action'). The complaints allege that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making misstatements and/or omissions concerning (1) trials of GED-0301, (2) Celgene's 2020 outlook and projected sales of Otezla*, and (3) the new drug application for Zeposia. The Court consolidated the two actions and appointed a lead plaintiff, lead counsel, and co-liaison counsel for the putative class. In February 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiff's amended complaint in full. In December 2019, the Court denied the motion to dismiss in part and granted the motion to dismiss in part (including all claims arising from alleged misstatements regarding GED-0301). Although the Court gave the plaintiff leave to re-plead the dismissed claims, it elected not to do so, and the dismissed claims are now dismissed with prejudice. In November 2020, the Court granted class certification with respect to the remaining claims. In December 2020, the defendants sought leave to appeal the Court's class certification decision, which was denied without prejudice in March 2021. No trial date has been scheduled.

In April 2020, certain Schwab management investment companies on behalf of certain Schwab funds filed an individual action in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey asserting largely the same allegations as the Celgene Securities Class Action against the same remaining defendants in that action. In July 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs' complaint in full. In March 2021, the Court granted in part and denied in part defendants' motion to dismiss consistent with its decision in the Celgene Securities Class Action.

The California Public Employees' Retirement System in April 2021 and DFA Investment Dimensions Group Inc., on behalf of certain of its funds, and American Century Mutual Funds, Inc., on behalf of certain of its funds, in July 2021 filed separate individual actions in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey asserting largely the same allegations as the Celgene Securities Class Action and the Schwab individual action against the same remaining defendants in those actions.

Contingent Value Rights Litigation
In June 2021, an action was filed against BMS in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York asserting claims of alleged breaches of a Contingent Value Rights Agreement ('CVR Agreement') entered into in connection with the closing of BMS's acquisition of Celgene Corporation in November 2019. The successor trustee under the CVR Agreement alleges that BMS breached the CVR Agreement by allegedly failing to use 'diligent efforts' to obtain FDA approval of liso-cel (Breyanzi) before a contractual milestone date, thereby avoiding a $6.4 billion potential obligation to holders of the contingent value rights governed by the CVR Agreement and by allegedly failing to permit inspection of records in response to a request by the successor trustee. The successor trustee seeks damages in an amount to be determined at trial and other relief, including interest and attorneys' fees. BMS disputes the successor trustee's allegations.

OTHER LITIGATION

Average Manufacturer Price Litigation
BMS is a defendant in a qui tam (whistleblower) lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, in which the U.S. Government declined to intervene. The complaint alleges that BMS inaccurately reported its average manufacturer prices to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to lower what it owed. Similar claims have been filed against other companies. In January 2020, BMS reached an agreement in principle to resolve this matter subject to the negotiation of a definitive settlement agreement and other contingencies. In March 2021, BMS finalized an agreement with the U.S. government and qui tam relator to resolve the claims asserted in the lawsuit. BMS has paid $75 million plus interest to the federal and state governments. Individual agreements will be negotiated with participating states based on the federal agreement. To the extent BMS does not finalize a settlement agreement with any state, that state's share of the settlement will revert to BMS.

HIV Medication Antitrust Lawsuits
BMS and two other manufacturers of HIV medications are defendants in related lawsuits pending in the Northern District of California. The lawsuits allege that the defendants' agreements to develop and sell fixed-dose combination products for the treatment of HIV, including Atripla*and Evotaz, violate antitrust laws. The currently pending actions, asserted on behalf of indirect purchasers, were initiated in 2019 in the Northern District of California and in 2020 in the Southern District of Florida. The Florida matter was transferred to the Northern District of California. In July 2020, the Court granted in part defendants' motion to dismiss, including dismissing with prejudice plaintiffs' claims as to an overarching conspiracy and plaintiffs' theories based on the alleged payment of royalties after patent expiration. Other claims, however, remain. In September and October 2020, two purported class actions have also been filed asserting similar claims on behalf of direct purchasers. In March 2021, the Court dismissed one of the direct purchaser cases and limited the claims of the remaining direct purchaser case to those arising in 2016 or later. However, the Court gave plaintiffs leave to amend their complaints, and one plaintiff filed an amended complaint on March 16, 2021. A trial on both the direct and indirect purchaser claims is scheduled for November 2022.

27


In February 2021, BMS and two other manufacturers of HIV medications were sued in State Court in New Mexico by the Attorney General of the State of New Mexico in a case alleging that the defendants' agreements to develop and sell various fixed-dose combination products for the treatment of HIV, including Atripla*, and agreements to settle certain patent litigation violate the antitrust laws of the State of New Mexico. No schedule has been set for the case.

Thalomidand RevlimidLitigations
Beginning in November 2014, certain putative class action lawsuits were filed against Celgene in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey alleging that Celgene violated various antitrust, consumer protection, and unfair competition laws by (a) allegedly securing an exclusive supply contract for the alleged purpose of preventing a generic manufacturer from securing its own supply of thalidomide active pharmaceutical ingredient, (b) allegedly refusing to sell samples of Thalomidand Revlimidbrand drugs to various generic manufacturers for the alleged purpose of bioequivalence testing necessary for aNDAs to be submitted to the FDA for approval to market generic versions of these products, (c) allegedly bringing unjustified patent infringement lawsuits in order to allegedly delay approval for proposed generic versions of Thalomidand Revlimid, and/or (d) allegedly entering into settlements of patent infringement lawsuits with certain generic manufacturers that allegedly have had anticompetitive effects. The plaintiffs, on behalf of themselves and putative classes of third-party payers, sought injunctive relief and damages. The various lawsuits were consolidated into a master action for all purposes. In March 2020, Celgene reached a settlement with the class plaintiffs. In October 2020, the Court entered a final order approving the settlement and dismissed the matter. That settlement does not resolve the claims of certain entities that opted out of the settlement.

In May 2018, Humana, Inc. ('Humana') filed a lawsuit against Celgene in the Pike County Circuit Court of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Humana's complaint alleges Celgene engaged in unlawful off-label marketing in connection with sales of Thalomidand Revlimidand asserts claims against Celgene for fraud, breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment and violations of New Jersey's Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act. The complaint seeks, among other things, treble and punitive damages, injunctive relief and attorneys' fees and costs. In April 2019, Celgene filed a motion to dismiss Humana's complaint, which the Court denied in January 2020. No trial date has been scheduled.

In March 2019, Humana filed a lawsuit against Celgene in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. Humana's complaint makes largely the same claims and allegations as were made in the class action litigation. The complaint purports to assert claims on behalf of Humana and its subsidiaries in several capacities, including as a direct purchaser and as an indirect purchaser, and seeks, among other things, treble and punitive damages, injunctive relief and attorneys' fees and costs. In May 2019, Celgene filed a motion to dismiss Humana's complaint, and the Court has stayed discovery pending adjudication of that motion. No trial date has been scheduled.

In March 2020, United HealthCare Services, Inc. ('UHS'), affiliates of which opted out of the first settlement in the Thalomidand RevlimidAntitrust Class Action Litigation, filed a lawsuit against Celgene in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. UHS's complaint makes largely the same claims and allegations as were made in the class action litigation in addition to certain claims regarding donations directed to copay assistance. The complaint purports to assert claims on behalf of UHS and its subsidiaries in several capacities, including as a direct purchaser and as an indirect purchaser, and seeks, among other things, treble and punitive damages, injunctive relief and attorneys' fees and costs. In December 2020, Celgene's motion to transfer the action to the District of New Jersey was granted and the case is now pending in that Court. In January 2021, Celgene filed a motion to dismiss UHS's complaint, which the Court administratively terminated in June 2021 pending its decision on Celgene's pending motion to dismiss Humana's complaint. No trial date has been scheduled.

In May 2020, Celgene filed suit against Humana Pharmacy, Inc. ('HPI'), a Humana subsidiary, in Delaware Superior Court. Celgene's complaint alleges that HPI breached its contractual obligations to Celgene by assigning claims to Humana that Humana is now asserting. The complaint seeks damages for HPI's breach as well as a declaratory judgment. In September 2020, HPI filed a motion to dismiss Celgene's complaint, which was denied in February 2021. A trial has been scheduled for March 2023.

In July 2020, Blue Cross Blue Shield Association ('BCBSA') sued Celgene and BMS on behalf of the Federal Employee Program in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. BCBSA's complaint makes largely the same claims and allegations as were made in the class action litigation. In April 2021, the parties' joint motion to transfer the action to the District of New Jersey was granted and the case is now pending in that Court. No trial date has been scheduled.

In August 2020, BCBSM Inc., Health Care Service Corporation ('HCSC'), Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida Inc., and Molina Healthcare, Inc. ('Molina') sued Celgene and BMS in a Minnesota state court. The complaint makes largely the same claims and allegations as were made in the class action litigation but adds allegations on behalf of HCSC only as to alleged off-label marketing of Thalomidand Revlimid. In September 2020, Celgene and BMS removed the action to the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. In March 2021, that Court denied plaintiffs' motion to remand the action to state court, dismissed Molina for lack of personal jurisdiction and granted defendants' motion to transfer the action to the District of New Jersey. The case is now pending in the District of New Jersey. No trial date has been scheduled.
28



In January 2021, Cigna Corporation ('Cigna') sued Celgene and BMS in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Cigna's complaint makes largely the same claims and allegations as were made in the class action litigation. Cigna's complaint purports to assert claims on behalf of Cigna and its subsidiaries in several capacities, including as a direct purchaser and as an indirect purchaser. In May 2021, the parties' joint motion to transfer the action to the District of New Jersey was granted and the case is now pending in that Court. No trial date has been scheduled.

In May 2021, Molina sued Celgene and BMS in San Francisco Superior Court. Molina's complaint makes largely the same claims and allegations as were made in the class action litigation. No trial date has been scheduled.

GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATIONS

Like other pharmaceutical companies, BMS and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to extensive regulation by national, state and local authorities in the U.S. and other countries in which BMS operates. As a result, BMS, from time to time, is subject to various governmental and regulatory inquiries and investigations as well as threatened legal actions and proceedings. It is possible that criminal charges, substantial fines and/or civil penalties, could result from government or regulatory investigations.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROCEEDINGS

As previously reported, BMS is a party to several environmental proceedings and other matters, and is responsible under various state, federal and foreign laws, including CERCLA, for certain costs of investigating and/or remediating contamination resulting from past industrial activity at BMS's current or former sites or at waste disposal or reprocessing facilities operated by third parties.

CERCLA Matters

With respect to CERCLA matters for which BMS is responsible under various state, federal and foreign laws, BMS typically estimates potential costs based on information obtained from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or counterpart state or foreign agency and/or studies prepared by independent consultants, including the total estimated costs for the site and the expected cost-sharing, if any, with other 'potentially responsible parties,' and BMS accrues liabilities when they are probable and reasonably estimable. BMS estimated its share of future costs for these sites to be $75 million at June 30, 2021, which represents the sum of best estimates or, where no best estimate can reasonably be made, estimates of the minimal probable amount among a range of such costs (without taking into account any potential recoveries from other parties). The amount includes the estimated costs for any additional probable loss associated with the previously disclosed North Brunswick Township High School Remediation Site.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management's discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition is provided as a supplement to and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to enhance the understanding of our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company is a global biopharmaceutical company whose mission is to discover, develop and deliver innovative medicines that help patients prevail over serious diseases. Our principal strategy is to combine the resources, scale and capability of a pharmaceutical company with the speed and focus on innovation of the biotech industry. Our focus as a biopharmaceutical company is on discovering, developing and delivering transformational medicines for patients facing serious diseases in areas where we believe that we have an opportunity to make a meaningful difference: oncology (both solid tumors and hematology), immunology, cardiovascular and fibrosis. Our four strategic priorities are to drive enterprise performance, maximize the value of our commercial portfolio, ensure the long-term sustainability of our pipeline through combined internal and external innovation and establish our new culture and embed our people strategy. For further information on our strategy, see 'Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Executive Summary-Strategy' in our 2020 Form 10-K. Refer to the Summary of Abbreviated Terms at the end of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for terms used throughout the document.

In 2021, we received 13 approvals for new medicines and additional indications and formulations of currently marketed medicines in major markets (the U.S., EU and Japan), including advancement in hematology malignancies through regulatory approvals of Breyanziand Abecma, the first approvals of our cell therapy portfolio. In support of our continued investment in our cell therapy portfolio, we are expanding our manufacturing capabilities through the construction of new state-of-the-art cell therapy manufacturing facilities in Devens, Massachusetts and Leiden, Netherlands. We continue to see momentum in our oncology portfolio with the approvals for both Opdivoand Opdivo+Yervoyin various indications. We continue to expand our portfolio in immunology with the FDA approval of Zeposiafor the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active UC and an important opportunity for deucravacitinib, our TYK2 inhibitor, for the treatment of psoriasis and other diseases. We bolstered our leading cardiovascular franchise by adding mavacamten with the acquisition of MyoKardia in 2020. In March 2021, the FDA accepted the NDA for mavacamten for patients with symptomatic obstructive HCM with an assigned PDUFA goal date of January 28, 2022.

Our revenues increased by 9% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to Eliquis, Revlimid, our IO and new product portfolios and foreign exchange, partially offset by lower demand for established brands. The $1.74 change in GAAP EPS primarily resulted from specified items including, lower unwinding of inventory fair value adjustments, contingent value rights and lower tax charges, partially offset by higher research and development, impairment and debt redemption charges. After adjusting for specified items, non-GAAP EPS increased $0.32 as a result of higher revenues, partially offset by higher costs and expenses to support product launches and the broader portfolio.
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
Dollars in Millions, except per share data 2021 2020 2021 2020

Economic and Market Factors

COVID-19

In December 2019, COVID-19 emerged and subsequently expanded to a pandemic, resulting in international, federal, state and local public health and governmental authorities taking a number of actions to limit the spread of COVID-19 and address material disruptions in the U.S. and global economy. Against this background, we benefited from the impact of COVID-19 related buying patterns in the first quarter of 2020 but experienced sales channel inventory workdowns for our products during second quarter of 2020. We began to note improvement in the demand for certain products during the third and fourth quarters in 2020 but continue to experience impacts on revenues from COVID-19 primarily due to lower new patient starts and patient visits. Although the pandemic has not significantly impacted our results of operations, it remains difficult to reasonably assess or predict the full extent of the negative impact that the COVID-19 pandemic may have on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The future financial and operational impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on BMS will depend on developments such as the ultimate duration and recovery from the pandemic, government actions, impact on the U.S. and global economies, customer behavior changes and timing for resumption to our normal operations, among others. See risk factor on the Company's risk factors resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic included under 'Part I-Item 1A. Risk Factors-The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting our business and could have a material adverse effect on us' in our 2020 Form 10-K.

As the COVID-19 pandemic affected global healthcare systems as well as major economic and financial markets, we adopted several procedures focused on ensuring the continued supply of our medicines to our patients and protecting the health, wellbeing and safety of our workforce:

Workplace and Community

•We are maintaining our steadfast commitment to protecting the health and safety of our workforce and our communities while ensuring uninterrupted supply of medicines to patients and building on our competitive advantage.
•Our manufacturing sites have remained open throughout the pandemic supported by on site personnel. We have taken a thoughtful and phased approach to bringing the rest of our workforce back to our 250 plus sites around the world and into the field, guided by the following principles:
◦Serving the needs of our patients and customers
◦Prioritizing health and safety
◦Following medical advice and government direction
◦Leading with compassion and flexibility
◦Modeling key learnings
•Our timelines and circumstances have varied across the globe. We are monitoring local conditions and government direction closely and adjusting our plans as appropriate acting in a nimble and flexible manner.
•We continue to take significant measures to protect the safety of our colleagues on site, including providing protective equipment, ensuring physical distancing, enhanced cleaning and creating a robust COVID-19 website to assist our workforce.

Supply of Our Medicines and Support to Patients, Physicians and Advocacy Groups

•An important element of keeping our promise to patients, their families and our healthcare providers is to ensure that our supply chain is robust and carefully managed. Our clinical and commercial supply chain teams have proactively identified alternative means for moving our raw materials and products to our markets and clinical sites over the past months. As a result of these efforts, we have not seen any disruption in our clinical or commercial supply chain due to the pandemic.
•Our customer-facing personnel are employing a combination of in-person and remote interactions to ensure continued support for healthcare professionals, patient care, and access to our medicines across our global markets. The balance between in-person and remote engagement is varying market to market based on local conditions and government direction.

Our Clinical Trials and Research

•We are working with health authorities and investigators to protect our trial participants and personnel at BMS and our clinical trial sites, while ensuring regulatory compliance and the integrity of our science.
•We have provided clinical trial investigators with overarching principles and guidance regarding the conduct of our clinical trials worldwide in light of COVID-19, and are taking into account guidance from health authorities, where applicable.

31


Governmental Actions

Additional regulations in the U.S. may occur in the future, including healthcare reform initiatives, further changes to tax laws and pricing laws and potential importation restrictions, that may reduce our results of operations, operating cash flow, liquidity and financial flexibility. For example, in November 2020 the U.S. federal government issued regulations regarding U.S. drug prices and payment for pharmaceutical products, including regulations that: (i) would reduce physician reimbursement for certain Medicare Part B drugs administered in doctors' offices or hospitals to a 'most favored nation price' drawn from the lowest price paid by certain countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, which would apply to many cancer medications; (ii) would authorize states and private parties to develop and implement programs to import certain prescription drugs from Canada and sell them in the U.S.; and (iii) would reform the use of rebates in Medicare Part D. The outcome of these regulations remains uncertain as a result of ongoing litigation and other factors. See risk factor on the Company's risk factors on the executive orders included under 'Part I-Item 1A. Risk Factors-Increased pricing pressure and other restrictions in the U.S. and abroad continue to negatively affect our revenues and profit margins' in our 2020 Form 10-K.

The reductions to provisions in 2021 was primarily related to Eliquiscoverage gap discounts. GTN adjustments are primarily a function of product sales volume, regional and payer channel mix, contractual or legislative discounts and rebates. U.S. GTN adjustments percentage increased primarily due to higher government channel mix, which has higher GTN adjustment percentages.

Estimated End-User Demand

Pursuant to the SEC Consent Order described in our 2020 Form 10-K, we monitor inventory levels on hand in the U.S. wholesaler distribution channel and outside of the U.S. in the direct customer distribution channel. We are obligated to disclose products with levels of inventory in excess of one month on hand or expected demand, subject to a de minimisexception. There were no products in the U.S. wholesaler distribution channel and outside of the U.S. in the direct customer distribution channel with estimated levels of inventory in excess of one month at June 30, 2021 (U.S.) and March 31, 2021 (outside of the U.S.).

In the U.S., we generally determine our months on hand estimates using inventory levels of product on hand and the amount of out-movement provided by our three largest wholesalers, which account for approximately 85% of total gross sales of U.S. products for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Factors that may influence our estimates include generic competition, seasonality of products, wholesaler purchases in light of increases in wholesaler list prices, new product launches, new warehouse openings by wholesalers and new customer stockings by wholesalers. In addition, these estimates are calculated using third-party data, which may be impacted by their recordkeeping processes.

Revlimid and Pomalystare distributed in the U.S. primarily through contracted pharmacies under the RevlimidREMS and PomalystREMS programs, respectively. These are proprietary risk-management distribution programs tailored specifically to provide for the safe and appropriate distribution and use of Revlimid and Pomalyst. Internationally, Revlimid and Imnovidare distributed under mandatory risk-management distribution programs tailored to meet local authorities' specifications to provide for the products' safe and appropriate distribution and use. These programs may vary by country and, depending upon the country and the design of the risk-management program, the product may be sold through hospitals or retail pharmacies.

Our non-U.S. businesses have significantly more direct customers. Information on available direct customer product level inventory and corresponding out-movement information and the reliability of third-party demand information varies widely. We limit our direct customer sales channel inventory reporting to where we can influence demand. When this information does not exist or is otherwise not available, we have developed a variety of methodologies to estimate such data, including using historical sales made to direct customers and third-party market research data related to prescription trends and end-user demand. Given the difficulties inherent in estimating third-party demand information, we evaluate our methodologies to estimate direct customer product level inventory and to calculate months on hand on an ongoing basis and make changes as necessary. Factors that may affect our estimates include generic competition, seasonality of products, price increases, new product launches, new warehouse openings by direct customers, new customer stockings by direct customers and expected direct customer purchases for governmental bidding situations. As such, all of the information required to estimate months on hand in the direct customer distribution channel for non-U.S. business for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 is not available prior to the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We will disclose any product with levels of inventory in excess of one month on hand or expected demand for the current quarter, subject to a de minimisexception, in our next quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Cost of Products Sold

•Cost of products sold decreased by $247 million in the second quarter 2021 primarily due to lower unwinding of inventory fair value adjustments ($626 million), partially offset by higher Eliquisprofit sharing ($303 million) and foreign exchange.

•Cost of products sold decreased by $1.1 billion year-to-date primarily due to lower unwinding of inventory fair value adjustments ($2.0 billion), partially offset by higher Eliquisprofit sharing ($395 million), charges related to Inrebicregulatory approval milestones in the EU ($315 million) and foreign exchange.

Marketing, Selling and Administrative

•Marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased by $254 million in the second quarter 2021 and $314 million year-to-date, primarily due to higher advertising and promotion expenses and higher costs to support new product launches.

Research and Development

•Research and development expense increased by $749 million in the second quarter 2021 and $602 million year-to-date, primarily due to license and asset acquisition charges of $780 million in the second quarter 2021 primarily relating to Eisai ($650 million) and Prothena ($80 million) and a $230 million IPRD impairment charge resulting from the decision to discontinue further development of an investigational compound.

•Contingent consideration primarily includes fair value adjustments resulting from the change in the traded price of contingent value rights issued with the Celgene acquisition. The contractual obligation to pay the contingent value rights terminated in January 2021 because the FDA did not approve liso-cel (JCAR017) by December 31, 2020.
•Royalties and licensing income includes diabetes business royalties, Keytruda* royalties, Tecentriq* royalties, up-front licensing fees and milestones for products that have not obtained commercial approval. Refer to 'Item 1. Financial Statements-Note 4. Divestitures, Licensing and Other Arrangements' for further information.
•Equity investment gains includes fair value adjustments on equity investments that have readily determinable fair value and other observable price changes on equity investments without readily determinable fair values. The fair value of equity investments with or without readily determinable fair values in the first quarter 2020 were significantly negatively impacted by changes in market conditions primarily caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequently recovered in the second quarter 2020. Refer to 'Item 1. Financial Statements-Note 9. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements' for more information. Our share of income from equity method investments of $37 million in the second quarter 2021 and $174 million year-to-date are primarily due to fair value adjustments attributed to limited partnerships.
•Integration expenses primarily includes consulting fees to implement Celgene integration initiatives related to processes and systems.
•Provision for restructuring includes exit and other costs primarily related to the Celgene acquisition plan. We are on track to achieve the annualized pre-tax cost savings of approximately $3.0 billion through 2022 as detailed in the restructuring activities. Refer to 'Item 1. Financial Statements-Note 6. Restructuring' for further information.
•Investment income decreased primarily due to lower interest rates in the second quarter and year-to-date 2021.
•Reversion excise tax resulted from the transfer of the retiree medical plan assets back to the Company in the first quarter 2020.
•A loss on debt redemption resulted from the early redemption of $3.5 billion long-term debt obligations in the first quarter 2021.

Income Taxes
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
Dollars in Millions 2021 2020 2021 2020
Earnings Before Income Taxes $ 1,553 $ 1,627 $ 4,083 $ 1,323
Provision for Income Taxes 492 1,707 993 2,169

Effective Tax Rate Excluding Specified Items 16.9 % 13.8 % 16.8 % 14.9 %

The tax impact attributed to specified items was primarily due to low jurisdictional tax rates attributed to the unwinding of inventory fair value adjustments and intangible asset amortization and contingent value rights fair value adjustments that are not taxable or deductible. The three and six months ended June 30, 2020 includes an $853 million deferred tax charge resulting from an internal transfer of certain intangible assets to the U.S. and an additional $255 million GILTI tax charge upon finalization of the Otezla* divestiture tax consequences with tax authorities. The effective tax rate excluding specified items increased by 3.1% in the second quarter 2021 and 1.9% year-to-date due to unfavorable earnings mix and the catch-up effect of a decrease to the estimated annual effective tax rate in the second quarter 2020. Refer to 'Item 1. Financial Statements-Note 7. Income Taxes' for additional information.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP earnings and related EPS information, are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items that are evaluated on an individual basis. These items are adjusted after considering their quantitative and qualitative aspects and typically have one or more of the following characteristics, such as being highly variable, difficult to project, unusual in nature, significant to the results of a particular period or not indicative of future operating results. Similar charges or gains were recognized in prior periods and will likely reoccur in future periods including (i) amortization of acquired intangible assets, including product rights that generate a significant portion of our ongoing revenue and will recur until the intangible assets are fully amortized, (ii) unwind of inventory fair value adjustments, (iii) acquisition and integration expenses, (iv) restructuring costs, (v) accelerated depreciation and impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, (vi) R&D charges or other income resulting from upfront or contingent milestone payments in connection with the acquisition or licensing of third-party intellectual property rights, (vii) divestiture gains or losses, (viii) stock compensation resulting from accelerated vesting of Celgene awards and certain retention-related employee compensation charges related to the Celgene transaction, (ix) pension, legal and other contractual settlement charges, (x) equity investment and contingent value rights fair value adjustments, including fair value adjustments attributed to limited partnership equity method investments and (xi) amortization of fair value adjustments of debt acquired from Celgene in our 2019 exchange offer, among other items. Deferred and current income taxes attributed to these items are also adjusted for considering their individual impact to the overall tax expense, deductibility and jurisdictional tax rates. Certain other significant tax items are also excluded such as the impact resulting from internal transfer of intangible assets and the Otezla* divestiture in the second quarter 2020. We also provide international revenues for our priority products excluding the impact of foreign exchange. We calculate foreign exchange impacts by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period average currency rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are included in Exhibit 99.2 to our Form 8-K filed on July 28, 2021 and are incorporated herein by reference.

Non-GAAP information is intended to portray the results of our baseline performance, supplement or enhance management, analysts and investors' overall understanding of our underlying financial performance and facilitate comparisons among current, past and future periods. For example, non-GAAP earnings and EPS information is an indication of our baseline performance before items that are considered by us to not be reflective of our ongoing results. In addition, this information is among the primary indicators that we use as a basis for evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets and planning and forecasting for future periods. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings or diluted EPS prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be the same as or comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies due to possible differences in method and in the items being adjusted. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

We regularly assess our anticipated working capital needs, debt and leverage levels, debt maturities, capital expenditure requirements, dividend payouts, potential share repurchases and future investments or acquisitions in order to maximize shareholder return, efficiently finance our ongoing operations and maintain flexibility for future strategic transactions. We also regularly evaluate our capital structure to ensure financial risks, adequate liquidity access and lower cost of capital are efficiently managed, which may lead to the issuance of additional debt securities, the repurchase of debt securities prior to maturity or the issuance or repurchase of common stock. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities together with cash generated from operations and, if required, from the issuance of commercial paper will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash needs for at least the next few years, including dividends, capital expenditures, milestone payments, working capital, restructuring initiatives, business development, debt maturities of approximately $12.0 billion through 2024 as well as any debt repurchases through redemptions or tender offers.

We have a share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors allowing for repurchases of our shares. The specific timing and number of shares repurchased will be determined by our management at its discretion and will vary based on market conditions, securities law limitations and other factors. The share repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any specific number of shares, does not have a specific expiration date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The repurchases may be effected through a combination of one or more open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, transactions structured through investment banking institutions and other derivative transactions, relying on Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. The outstanding share repurchase authority authorization under the program was $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2020. In January 2021, our Board of Directors approved an increase of $2.0 billion to the share repurchase authorization for our common stock, increasing the total outstanding share repurchase authorization to approximately $6.4 billion. We repurchased approximately 47 million shares of our common stock for $3.0 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2021 reducing the remaining share repurchase capacity under the share repurchase program to approximately $3.4 billion as of June 30, 2021. Refer to 'Item 1. Financial Statements-Note 15. Equity' for additional information.

Dividend payments were $2.2 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2021. Dividends declared per common share were $0.98 in the six months ended June 30, 2021. Dividend decisions are made on a quarterly basis by our Board of Directors.

Annual capital expenditures were approximately $750 million in 2020 and are expected to be approximately $1.1 billion in 2021 and $1.2 billion in 2022. We continue to make capital expenditures in connection with the expansion of our manufacturing capabilities, research and development and other facility-related activities.

Under our commercial paper program, we may issue a maximum of $5.0 billion unsecured notes that have maturities of not more than 366 days from the date of issuance. There were no commercial paper borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2021.

In 2021, we purchased aggregate principal amount of $3.5 billion of certain of our debt securities for approximately $4.0 billion of cash in a series of tender offers and 'make whole' redemptions and $1.5 billion of notes matured and were repaid.

As of June 30, 2021, we had four separate revolving credit facilities totaling $6.0 billion, which consisted of a 364-day $2.0 billion facility expiring in January 2022, a three-year $1.0 billion facility expiring in January 2022 and two five-year $1.5 billion facilities that were extended to September 2025 and July 2026, respectively. The revolving facilities provide for customary terms and conditions with no financial covenants, may be used to provide backup liquidity for our commercial paper borrowings and are extendable annually by one year on the anniversary date with the consent of the lenders. No borrowings were outstanding under revolving credit facilities at June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

47


In November 2020, we entered into a $4.0 billion delayed draw term loan credit agreement which was terminated in February 2021.

Our investment portfolio includes non-current marketable debt securities, which are subject to changes in fair value as a result of interest rate fluctuations and other market factors. Our investment policy establishes limits on the amount and time to maturity of investments with any institution. The policy also requires that investments are only entered into with corporate and financial institutions that meet high credit quality standards. Refer to 'Item 1. Financial Statements-Note 9. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements' for further information.

Credit Ratings

Our current long-term and short-term credit ratings assigned by Moody's Investors Service are A2 and Prime-1, respectively, with a stable long-term credit outlook, and our current long-term and short-term credit ratings assigned by Standard & Poor's are A+ and A-1, respectively with a negative long-term credit outlook. The long-term ratings reflect the agencies' opinion that we have a low default risk but are somewhat susceptible to adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions. The short-term ratings reflect the agencies' opinion that we have good to extremely strong capacity for timely repayment. Any credit rating downgrade may affect the interest rate of any debt we may incur, the fair market value of existing debt and our ability to access the capital markets generally.

Cash Flows

The following is a discussion of cash flow activities:
Six Months Ended June 30,
Dollars in Millions 2021 2020
Cash flow provided by/(used in):
Operating activities $ 6,884 $ 8,430
Investing activities 37 1,166
Financing activities (10,477) (2,047)

Operating Activities

Cash flow from operating activities represents the cash receipts and disbursements from all of our activities other than investing and financing activities. Operating cash flow is derived by adjusting net earnings for noncontrolling interest, non-cash operating items, gains and losses attributed to investing and financing activities and changes in operating assets and liabilities resulting from timing differences between the receipts and payments of cash and when the transactions are recognized in our results of operations. As a result, changes in cash from operating activities reflect the timing of cash collections from customers and alliance partners; payments to suppliers, alliance partners and employees; customer discounts and rebates; and tax payments in the ordinary course of business. For example, annual employee bonuses are typically paid in the first quarter of the subsequent year.

The $1.5 billion change in cash flow from operating activities compared to 2020 was primarily due to higher tax payments of approximately $1.3 billion in 2021, the timing of Otezla* receivable collection reimbursements to Amgen of $500 million in 2020 and the reversion of retirement medical plan assets of approximately $300 million (net of excise taxes) in 2020, partially offset by cash collections and timing of payments in the ordinary course of business.

Investing Activities

Cash requirements from investing activities include cash used for acquisitions, manufacturing and facility-related capital expenditures and purchases of marketable securities with original maturities greater than 90 days at the time of purchase, proceeds from business divestitures (including royalties), the sale and maturity of marketable securities, sale of equity investments and upfront and contingent milestones from licensing arrangements.

The $1.1 billion change in cash flow from investing activities compared to 2020 was primarily due to changes in the amount of marketable debt securities held of $2.0 billion, partially offset by higher proceeds from sales of equity investments of approximately $800 million.

48


Financing Activities

Cash requirements from financing activities include cash used to pay dividends, repurchase common stock and repay long-term debt and other borrowings reduced by proceeds from the exercise of stock options and issuance of long-term debt and other borrowings.

The $8.4 billion change in cash flow from financing activities compared to 2020 was primarily due to higher debt repayments of $5.7 billion, including a series of tender offers and 'make whole' redemptions, and higher share repurchases of $2.9 billion in 2021.

Product and Pipeline Developments

Our R&D programs are managed on a portfolio basis from early discovery through late-stage development and include a balance of early-stage and late-stage programs to support future growth. Our late stage R&D programs in Phase III development include both investigational compounds for initial indications and additional indications or formulations for marketed products. The following are the developments in our marketed products and our late-stage pipeline since the start of the second quarter:
Product Indication Date Developments
Opdivo Bladder April 2021
Announced that the FDA accepted the sBLA for Opdivofor the adjuvant treatment of patients with surgically resected, high-risk muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma. The FDA granted the application Priority Review and assigned a PDUFA goal date of September 3, 2021. The application is based on results from the Phase III CheckMate-274 trial.
Gastric and Esophageal Cancers June 2021
Received a positive CHMP opinion of Opdivofor the adjuvant treatment of adult patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer who have residual pathologic disease following prior neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The opinion is based on data from the Phase III CheckMate-577 trial.
May 2021
Announced FDA approval of Opdivofor the adjuvant treatment of patients with completely resected esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer with residual pathologic disease who have received neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The approval is based on results from the Phase III CheckMate-577 trial.
April 2021
Announced FDA approval of Opdivoin combination with combination with fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer, gastroesophageal junction cancer, and esophageal adenocarcinoma, regardless of PD-L1 expression status. The approval is based on the Phase III CheckMate-649 trial.
April 2021
Announced positive topline results from the Phase III CheckMate-648 trial evaluating treatment with Opdivoplus chemotherapy or Opdivoplus Yervoyin patients with unresectable advanced or metastatic ESCC. Opdivoplus chemotherapy met primary and secondary endpoints of overall survival in patients with tumors expressing PD-L1 and in the all-randomized patient population, and also the primary endpoint of progression free survival in the PD-L1+ population. Opdivoplus Yervoymet primary and secondary endpoints of overall survival in both populations, whereas the other primary endpoint of progression free survival in the PD-L1+ population was not met.
HCC July 2021
Announced that in consultation with the FDA, we withdrew the U.S. indication for Opdivoin HCC who were previously treated with sorafenib. Opdivowas granted accelerated approval for this indication in 2017 based on tumor responses from the Phase I/II CheckMate-040 trial. CheckMate-459, the confirmatory randomized study of Opdivoversus sorafenib in the first-line setting, did not achieve statistical significance for its primary endpoint of overall survival per the pre-specified analysis.
RCC April 2021
Announced EC approval of Opdivoin combination with Cabometyx* for the first-line treatment of adults with advanced RCC. The approval is based on results from the Phase III CheckMate-9ER trial.

Melanoma May 2021
Announced new six-and-a-half year data from the Phase III CheckMate-067 trial demonstrating durable improvement in survival with first-line Opdivoplus Yervoytherapy and Opdivomonotherapy, versus Yervoyalone, in patients with advanced melanoma.
Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma June 2021
Announced EC approval of Opdivoplus Yervoyfor the first line treatment of adults with unresectable malignant pleural mesothelioma. The approval is based on results from the Phase III CheckMate-743 trial.
May 2021
Ono, our alliance partner for Opdivoin Japan, announced that the companies received approval for combination therapy of Opdivoand Yervoyin Japan for the first-line treatment of unresectable advanced or recurrent malignant pleural mesothelioma, for a partial change in approved items of the manufacturing and marketing approval. The approval is based on results from the Phase III CheckMate-743 trial.
NSCLC May 2021
Announced that Part 1 of the Phase III CheckMate-227 trial continues to demonstrate the long-term survival benefits of first-line treatment with Opdivoplus Yervoy compared to chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC, regardless of PD-L1 expression level or histology, with a minimum follow-up of over four years.
May 2021
Announced that Opdivoplus Yervoywith two cycles of chemotherapy showed a durable survival benefit compared to four cycles of chemotherapy alone after two years of follow-up in previously untreated patients with advanced NSCLC in the Phase III CheckMate-9LA trial.
SCCHN July 2021
Announced an update on the Phase III CheckMate-651 trial comparing Opdivoplus Yervoyto the EXTREME regimen (cetuximab, cisplatin/carboplatin and fluorouracil) as a first-line treatment in platinum-eligible patients with recurrent or metastatic SCCHN. Although OpdivoplusYervoyshowed a clear, positive trend towards overall survival in patients whose tumors express PD-L1 with a combined positive score ≥ 20, the study did not meet its primary endpoints.
Reblozyl Beta Thalassemia June 2021
Announced with Acceleron, that Phase II BEYOND study evaluating Reblozylplus best supportive care in adult patients with non-transfusion dependent beta thalassemia demonstrated that 77.7% of patients treated with Reblozylachieved a hemoglobin increase (≥1.0 gram/deciliter) compared to 0% of patients in the placebo arm.
Onureg AML June 2021
Announced EC approval of Onuregas a maintenance therapy in adult patients with AML who achieved complete remission or complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery following induction therapy with or without consolidation treatment and who are not candidates for, including those who choose not to proceed to, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The approval is based on data from the Phase III QUAZAR AML-001 study.
Zeposia UC May 2021
Announced FDA approval of Zeposiafor the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active UC. The approval is based on data from the pivotal Phase III True North trial.
Breyanzi Lymphoma June 2021
Announced positive topline results from the Phase III TRANSFORM trial evaluating Breyanzi as a second-line treatment in adults with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma compared to salvage therapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Results of a pre-specified interim analysis conducted by an independent review committee showed the study met its primary endpoint of demonstrating a clinically meaningful and highly statistically significant improvement in event-free survival, as well as key secondary endpoints of complete response rate and progression-free survival compared to standard of care.
Abecma Multiple Myeloma June 2021
Received a positive CHMP opinion of Abecmafor the treatment of adult patients with RRMM who have received at least three prior therapies, including an immunomodulatory agent, a proteasome inhibitor and an anti-CD38 antibody and have demonstrated disease progression on the last therapy. The opinion is based on data from the Phase II KarMMa trial.
mavacamten Obstructive HCM May 2021 Announced a new analysis of data from the Phase III EXPLORER-HCM study evaluating mavacamten, an investigational, first-in-class cardiac myosin inhibitor, in patients with oHCM. At 30 weeks, the change in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Overall Summary Score (KCCQ OSS) was greater in mavacamten patients than placebo, with similar benefits across all KCCQ subscales

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Our critical accounting policies are those that significantly impact our financial condition and results of operations and require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Because of this uncertainty, actual results may vary from these estimates. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, refer to 'Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations' in our 2020 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2021. For information regarding the impact of recently adopted accounting standards, refer to 'Item 1. Financial Statements-Note.1 Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Standards.'

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (including documents incorporated by reference) and other written and oral statements we make from time to time contain certain 'forward-looking' statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the fact they use words such as 'should,' 'could,' 'expect,' 'anticipate,' 'estimate,' 'target,' 'may,' 'project,' 'guidance,' 'intend,' 'plan,' 'believe,' 'will' and other words and terms of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. One can also identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Such forward-looking statements are based on historical performance and current expectations and projections about our future financial results, goals, plans and objectives and involve inherent risks, assumptions and uncertainties, including internal or external factors that could delay, divert or change any of them in the next several years, and could cause our future financial results, goals, plans and objectives to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the statements. These statements are likely to relate to, among other things, our goals, plans and objectives regarding our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, market position, product development, product approvals, sales efforts, expenses, performance or results of current and anticipated products, our business development strategy generally and in relation to our ability to realize the projected benefits of our acquisitions of Celgene and MyoKardia, the full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and the development and commercialization of our products, potential laws and regulations to lower drug costs, market actions taken by private and government payers to manage drug utilization and contain costs, the expiration of patents or data protection on certain products, including assumptions about our ability to retain patent exclusivity of certain products, and the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings and financial results. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. We included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in the 2020 Form 10-K, particularly under the caption 'Item 1A. Risk Factors,' and in our other filings with the SEC additional information on the factors that we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement.

Although we believe that we have been prudent in our plans and assumptions, no assurance can be given that any goal or plan set forth in forward-looking statements can be achieved and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date made. Additional risks that we may currently deem immaterial or that are not presently known to us could also cause the forward-looking events discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q not to occur. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For a discussion of our market risk, refer to 'Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk' in our 2020 Form 10-K.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of June 30, 2021, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
