Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 7, 2022 , Amgen Inc. (the Company) issued a press release announcing its unaudited results of operations for the three months and year ended December 31, 2021, and its unaudited financial position as of December 31, 2021. The full text of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
In its press release the Company included certain non-U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) financial measures as defined in Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The non-GAAP financial measures included in the press release are non-GAAP earnings per share, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP tax rate, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP operating expenses and sub-components of non-GAAP operating expenses such as non-GAAP cost of sales, non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expenses and non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses. Reconciliations for such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the press release. The Company also included Free Cash Flow (FCF), which is computed by subtracting capital expenditures from operating cash flow, each as determined in accordance with GAAP.
The Company believes that this presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to and facilitates additional analysis by investors. The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to enhance an investor’s overall understanding of the financial performance and prospects for the future of the Company’s ongoing business activities by facilitating comparisons of results of ongoing business operations among current, past and future periods. The Company believes that FCF provides a further measure of the Company’s liquidity. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures in connection with its own budgeting and financial planning internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including to allocate resources and to evaluate results relative to incentive compensation targets. The non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following is a summary of the costs and other items excluded from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to calculate non-GAAP financial measures:
•Acquisition-related expenses: Acquisition-related charges are primarily associated with intangible assets acquired in connection with business acquisitions. Such charges include amortization of developed-product-technology rights, licensing rights, R&D technology rights, and marketing-related rights, as well as impairments of in-process R&D assets. Charges for purchased intangible assets are significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of the Company’s acquisitions and potential product approvals as they relate to in-process R&D projects acquired. Accordingly, these charges may vary in amount from period to period. The Company excludes these charges for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures presented to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of the Company’s current operating performance and comparisons to past operating performance. The Company believes that excluding the noncash charges related to those intangible assets acquired in business acquisitions treats those assets as if the Company had developed them internally in the past and, thus, provides a supplemental measure of profitability in which the Company’s acquired intellectual property is treated in a comparable manner to its internally-developed-intellectual property.
•Licensing-related expenses: Licensing-related charges primarily related to an upfront payment made in connection with the entry into a license and collaboration agreement. Charges from such agreements are significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of these arrangements and potential regulatory related events and milestones as they relate to in-process R&D projects. Accordingly, these charges may vary in amount from period to period. The Company excludes these charges for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures presented to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of the Company’s current operating performance and comparisons to past operating performance.
•Net charges pursuant to the Company’s costs savings initiatives: Costs from cost savings initiatives are primarily related to facilities charges, including accelerated depreciation, and severance and benefits for employees terminated pursuant to our transformation and process improvement efforts. Costs from such initiatives are inconsistent in amount and are significantly impacted by the timing and nature of these events. Therefore, although the Company may incur these types of expenses in the future, it believes that eliminating these charges for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures provides a supplemental evaluation of the Company’s current operating performance and facilitates comparisons to past operating performance.
•Other items: The Company adjusts GAAP financial results for certain income and expenses (or gains and losses). These adjustments include certain items from investment transactions, including amortization and impairments from the basis difference that arises from certain equity method investments and certain gains and losses on our investments in equity securities that are recorded to other income and expense. Further, the Company also adjusts GAAP financial results for certain items associated with judgments and/or settlements for legal proceedings discussed in our filings. The Company excludes these items for the purpose of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures presented because the Company believes these items are outside the ordinary course of business. The Company believes eliminating these items provides a supplemental evaluation of the Company’s current operating performance and facilitates comparisons to past operating
performance.
•The tax effect of the adjustments between GAAP and non-GAAP results take into account the tax treatment and related tax rate(s) that apply to each adjustment in the applicable tax jurisdiction(s). Generally, this results in a tax impact at the U.S. marginal tax rate for certain adjustments, including the majority of amortization of intangible assets, whereas the tax impact of other adjustments, including expenses related to cost savings initiatives, depends on whether the amounts are deductible in the respective tax jurisdictions and the applicable tax rate(s) in those jurisdictions.
The press release also contains a discussion of the additional purposes for which the Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, including, effective January 1, 2021, we began to exclude the gains and losses on our investments in equity securities from our non-GAAP measures that are recorded to other income and expense. This exclusion does not apply to our share of the earnings and losses of our strategic investments in corporations accounted for under the equity method of accounting, such as our investment in BeiGene. The Company began excluding gains and losses from equity investments for the purpose of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures presented because the Company believes the results of such gains and losses are not representative of our normal business operations. We made this change in 2021 because, as we have increased our investments in these companies, we recognized that the resulting variability can impede comparability between periods of our financial performance for our ongoing business operations. For comparability of results to the prior year, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS amounts for 2020 have also been revised to reflect this update to our non-GAAP policy.
This information and the information contained in the press release shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. The information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report is not incorporated by reference into any filings of the Company made under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, whether made before or after the date of this Current Report, regardless of any general incorporation language in the filing unless specifically stated so therein.

AMGEN REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (February 7, 2022) - Amgen (NASDAQ:AMGN) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2021 versus comparable periods in 2020. Key results include:
•For the fourth quarter, total revenues increased 3% to $6.8 billion in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2020, driven by increased Other Revenue from the Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) COVID-19 manufacturing collaboration. Product sales decreased 1% globally for the fourth quarter.
◦Volumes grew double-digits for a number of products including Prolia® (denosumab), MVASI® (bevacizumab-awwb), Repatha® (evolocumab) and EVENITY® (romosozumab-aqqg).
•For the full year, total revenues increased 2% to $26.0 billion driven by increased Other Revenue from the Lilly collaboration. Product sales for the full year were flat versus 2020 with 7% growth in unit volumes offset by a 7% decline in net selling price.
•GAAP earnings per share (EPS) increased 22% to $3.36 in the fourth quarter driven by increased revenues and lower weighted average shares outstanding. For the full year, GAAP EPS decreased 16% to $10.28 primarily driven by the write-off of $1.5 billion in acquired in-process research & development (acquired IPR&D) associated with our acquisition of Five Prime Therapeutics, partially offset by increased revenues.
◦For the fourth quarter, GAAP operating income increased 15% to $2.3 billion, and GAAP operating margin increased 5.0 percentage points to 36.7%. For the full year, GAAP operating income decreased 16% to $7.6 billion and GAAP operating margin decreased 6.3 percentage points to 31.4%, primarily driven by the acquisition of Five Prime Therapeutics.
•Non-GAAP EPS increased 26% in the fourth quarter to $4.36, and increased 6% to $17.10 for the full year, driven by increased revenues, decreased other expense and the impact of fewer weighted average shares outstanding. Full year non-GAAP EPS was partially offset by higher operating expenses.
◦For the fourth quarter, non-GAAP operating income increased 10% to $3.0 billion, and non-GAAP operating margin increased 4.7 percentage points to 47.8%. For the full year, non-GAAP operating income increased 1.0% to $12.4 billion and non-GAAP operating margin increased 0.2 percentage points to 51.1%.
•The Company generated $8.4 billion of free cash flow for the full year versus $9.9 billion in 2020. The decrease in 2021 was primarily driven by the monetization of interest rate swaps that occurred in 2020 and the timing of payments for sales incentives and discounts, as well as increased capital expenditures in 2021.

Product Sales Performance
Total product sales decreased 1% for the fourth quarter of 2021 versus the fourth quarter of 2020. Unit volumes grew 7% but were more than offset by lower net selling price and lower inventory levels. Product sales for the full year were flat versus 2020 with 7% growth in unit volumes offset by a 7% decline in net selling price. Full-year product sales in the U.S. declined 4%, with unit volumes increasing by 3% and net selling price declining by 6%. Full-year product sales outside the U.S. grew 12%, including 36% sales growth in the Asia-Pacific region.
During 2021 there has been a gradual recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, with patient visits and diagnosis rates approaching pre-pandemic levels by early in the fourth quarter. Late in the year, the Omicron variant began to impact the healthcare sector. As a result, we have seen some shift back to virtual engagement by our field staff, delayed healthcare procedures, and variability in demand patterns.
General Medicine
•Prolia sales increased 17% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and 18% for the full year. Prolia unit volumes grew 17% for the quarter and 15% for the full year driven by a year-over-year increase in both new and repeat patients. As of the fourth quarter of 2021, osteoporosis diagnosis levels are largely back to pre-COVID levels; however, there has been some volatility with the recent Omicron surge which could impact sales in 2022.
•EVENITY sales increased 59% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and 51% for the full year. EVENITY unit volumes grew 57% for the quarter and 46% for the full year.

•Repatha sales increased 8% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and 26% for the full year. Volume growth of 35% for the quarter and 40% for the full year was partially offset by lower net selling price, most significantly as a result of the increase in Medicare Part D patients receiving Repatha who entered the coverage gap, also known as the “doughnut hole.” For 2021, Repatha remained the global proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) segment leader, with more than 1 million patients treated since launch.
•Aimovig® (erenumab-aooe) sales decreased 13% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and 16% for the full year. Volume growth of 9% for the quarter and 12% for the full year was more than offset by lower net selling price. We recently published data from the HER-MES study, in which Aimovig showed superior tolerability and efficacy against topiramate and provided a significant reduction in monthly migraine days.
Inflammation
•Otezla® (apremilast) sales increased 2% year-over-year for both the fourth quarter and full year, with 8% volume growth over both periods being partially offset by lower net selling price and lower inventory levels. In the U.S., Otezla continued to maintain first-line share leadership in psoriasis for the fourth quarter of 2021. During the fourth quarter, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Otezla for the treatment of adult patients with plaque psoriasis across all severities. This expanded indication will extend Otezla’s reach to an additional 1.5 million patients with mild-to-moderate psoriasis that can benefit from a systemic oral therapy.
•Enbrel® (etanercept) sales decreased 13% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and 11% for the full year, driven by declines in net selling price, unit volume and inventory levels. Year-over-year volume declined 1% in the fourth quarter, representing the third consecutive quarter of slowing volume declines. On a full year basis, Enbrel benefited from $254 million of favorable adjustments to estimated sales deductions. For 2022, we expect Enbrel's net selling price to decline.
We expect Otezla and Enbrel to follow the historical pattern of lower sales in the first quarter relative to subsequent quarters due to the impact of benefit plan changes, insurance reverification and increased co-pay expenses as U.S. patients work through deductibles.
•AMGEVITA™ (adalimumab) sales increased 12% year-over-year for the fourth quarter, driven by 24% volume growth, and 33% for the full year, driven by 45% volume growth. Volume growth in both periods was partially offset by lower net selling price. In 2021, AMGEVITA continued to be the most prescribed adalimumab biosimilar in Europe.
Hematology-Oncology
•LUMAKRAS®/LUMYKRAS® (sotorasib) generated $45 million of sales for the fourth quarter and $90 million for the full year. In the U.S., LUMAKRAS has been prescribed to approximately 2,000 patients by over 1,000 physicians in both academic and community settings. The large majority of the top clinical laboratories in the U.S. are now routinely reflecting KRAS G12C as an actionable mutation, and approximately 75% of patients with NSCLC are now being tested by their oncologists at diagnosis for the KRAS G12C mutation. LUMAKRAS has strong payer coverage in the U.S., with 90% of patients having formulary access. Outside the U.S., LUMYKRAS is currently approved in 35 countries and we are leveraging early access programs where available to enable patients in need to receive treatment without delay.
•KYPROLIS® (carfilzomib) sales increased 4% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and full year, driven by 3% and 4% volume growth, respectively.
AMGEN REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Page 4
•XGEVA® (denosumab) sales increased 9% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and 6% for the full year, driven by 9% volume growth in both periods, partially offset by lower net selling price. In addition, XGEVA benefited from favorable changes to estimated sales deductions in the fourth quarter.
•Vectibix® (panitumumab) sales increased 10% year-over-year for the fourth quarter, driven by volume growth, and 8% for the full year, driven by volume growth. Vectibix remains the anti-EGFR antibody of choice in all lines of colorectal cancer therapy. In the fourth quarter, volume growth benefited from shipments to Takeda, our partner in Japan.
•Nplate® (romiplostim) sales increased 24% year-over-year for the fourth quarter, primarily driven by 17% volume growth, and 21% for the full year, primarily driven by 15% volume growth.
•BLINCYTO® (blinatumomab) sales increased 28% year-over-year for the fourth quarter, driven by volume growth, and 25% for the full year, driven by volume growth.
•MVASI sales increased 9% year-over-year for the fourth quarter, driven by 36% volume growth, and 46% for the full year, driven by 78% volume growth. Volume growth in both periods was partially offset by lower net selling price. In the U.S., MVASI continues to hold leading volume share with 49% of the bevacizumab segment in the quarter. Going forward, we expect that continued worldwide volume growth will be more than offset by declines in net selling price driven by increased competition and Average Selling Price (ASP) erosion.
•KANJINTI® (trastuzumab-anns) sales decreased 12% year-over-year for the fourth quarter, driven by declines in net selling price and volume, partially offset by favorable changes to estimated sales deductions. Sales increased 1% for the full year, driven by 36% volume growth, largely offset by lower net selling price. In the U.S., KANJINTI continues to hold leading volume share with 41% of the trastuzumab segment for the fourth quarter. Going forward, we expect volume declines and continued net selling price deterioration driven by increased competition and ASP erosion.
Established Products
•Total sales of our established products, which include Neulasta® (pegfilgrastim), NEUPOGEN® (filgrastim), EPOGEN® (epoetin alfa), Aranesp® (darbepotein alfa), Parsabiv® (etelcalcetide), and Sensipar®/Mimpara™ (cinacalcet), decreased 27% year-over-year for the fourth quarter and decreased 25% for the full year, primarily driven by volume declines and lower net selling price. In the fourth quarter, the published Average Selling Price for Neulasta in the U.S. declined 38% year-over-year and 10% quarter-over-quarter. Going forward, we expect additional net price and volume erosion across this portfolio of products.

Operating Expense, Operating Margin and Tax Rate Analysis
On a GAAP basis:
•Total Operating Expenses decreased 2% year-over-year for the fourth quarter. For the full year, Total Operating Expenses increased 13% primarily driven by the acquisition of Five Prime Therapeutics. Cost of Sales margin increased 2.2 percentage points in the fourth quarter primarily driven by product mix, including COVID-19 antibody shipments to Lilly and profit share. The impact of these product mix changes was partially offset by lower manufacturing cost. For the full year, Cost of Sales margin increased 1.2 percentage points, primarily driven by product mix, including COVID-19 antibody shipments to Lilly, profit share and royalties, partially offset by lower amortization expense from acquisition-related assets and lower manufacturing cost. Research & Development (R&D) expenses increased 10% in the fourth quarter primarily due to higher research and early pipeline spend related to recent business development activities for Generate Biomedicines and Arrakis Therapeutics. For the full year, R&D expenses increased 15% driven by a licensing-related expense from our collaboration with Kyowa Kirin Co. and higher spend in research and early pipeline, including other business development activities. Acquired IPR&D expenses in 2021 were driven by the Five Prime Therapeutics acquisition. Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased 20% in the fourth quarter driven by lower spend for marketed products. For the full year, SG&A expenses decreased 6% driven by lower spend for marketed products and lower general and administrative expenses.
•Operating Margin as a percentage of product sales increased 5.0 percentage points in the fourth quarter to 36.7%, and decreased 6.3 percentage points for the full year to 31.4%.
•Tax Rate decreased 3.1 percentage points in the fourth quarter and increased 1.4 percentage points for the full year. The fourth quarter tax rate decrease is primarily driven by current year favorable items and change in earnings mix partially offset by the non-deductible IPR&D expense arising from the acquisition of Five Prime Therapeutics. The full year tax rate increase is primarily driven by the non-deductible IPR&D expense arising from the acquisition of Five Prime Therapeutics partially offset by earnings mix and adjustments to prior year tax liabilities.
On a non-GAAP basis:
•Total Operating Expenses decreased 1% in the fourth quarter and increased 4% for the full year. Cost of Sales margin increased 2.4 percentage points in the fourth quarter primarily due to product mix, including COVID-19 antibody shipments to Lilly and profit share, partially offset by lower manufacturing cost. For the full year, Cost of Sales margin increased 2.5 percentage points primarily due to product mix, including COVID-19 antibody shipments to Lilly, profit share and royalties, partially offset by lower manufacturing cost. R&D expenses increased 11% in the fourth quarter primarily due to higher research and early pipeline spend related to recent business development activities for Generate Biomedicines and Arrakis Therapeutics. For the full year, R&D expenses increased 5% driven by higher spend in research and early pipeline, including business development activities. SG&A expenses decreased 19% in the fourth quarter driven by lower spend for marketed products. For the full year, SG&A expenses decreased 7% driven by lower spend for marketed products and lower general and administrative expenses.
•Operating Margin as a percentage of product sales increased 4.7 percentage points in the fourth quarter to 47.8%, and increased 0.2 percentage points to 51.1% for the full year.
•Tax Rate decreased 3.0 percentage points in the fourth quarter and decreased 0.7 percentage points for the full year. The fourth quarter tax rate decrease was primarily driven by net favorable items partially offset by a change in earnings mix. The full year tax rate decrease is primarily driven by net favorable items.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this news release, management has presented its operating results for the fourth quarters and full years of 2021 and 2020, in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and on a non-GAAP basis. These non-GAAP financial measures are computed by excluding certain items related to acquisitions, restructuring and certain other items from the related GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the news release. Management has also presented Free Cash Flow (FCF), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for the fourth quarters and full years of 2021 and 2020. FCF is computed by subtracting capital expenditures from operating cash flow, each as determined in accordance with GAAP.
The Company believes that its presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to and facilitates additional analysis by investors. The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to enhance an investor’s overall understanding of the financial performance and prospects for the future of the Company’s ongoing business activities by facilitating comparisons of results of ongoing business operations among current, past and future periods. The Company believes that FCF provides a further measure of the Company’s liquidity.
Beginning January 1, 2021, we began to exclude the gains and losses on our investments in equity securities from our non-GAAP measures that are recorded to Other income (expense). This exclusion will not apply to our share of the earnings and losses of our strategic investments in corporations accounted for under the equity method of accounting, such as our investment in BeiGene. The Company will be excluding gains and losses from equity investments for the purpose of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures presented because the Company believes the results of such gains and losses are not representative of our normal business operations. We are making this change beginning in 2021 because, as we have increased our investments in these companies, we recognized that the resulting variability can impede comparability between periods of our financial performance for our ongoing business operations. For comparability of results to the prior year, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS amounts for 2020 have been revised to reflect the update to our non-GAAP policy that excludes gains and losses on certain equity investments.
The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures set forth in the news release in connection with its own budgeting and financial planning internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including to allocate resources and to evaluate results relative to incentive compensation targets. The non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

In addition, our business may be impacted by the adoption of new tax legislation or exposure to additional tax liabilities. If we fail to meet the compliance obligations in the corporate integrity agreement between us and the U.S. government, we could become subject to significant sanctions. Further, while we routinely obtain patents for our products and technology, the protection offered by our patents and patent applications may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by our competitors, or we may fail to prevail in present and future intellectual property litigation. We perform a substantial amount of our commercial manufacturing activities at a few key facilities, including in Puerto Rico, and also depend on third parties for a portion of our manufacturing activities, and limits on supply may constrain sales of certain of our current products and product candidate development. An outbreak of disease or similar public health threat, such as COVID-19, and the public and governmental effort to mitigate against the spread of such disease, could have a significant adverse effect on the supply of materials for our manufacturing activities, the distribution of our products, the commercialization of our product candidates, and our clinical trial operations, and any such events may have a material adverse effect on our product development, product sales, business and results of operations. We rely on collaborations with third parties for the development of some of our product candidates and for the commercialization and sales of some of our commercial products. In addition, we compete with other companies with respect to many of our marketed products as well as for the discovery and development of new products. Discovery or identification of new product candidates or development of new indications for existing products cannot be guaranteed and movement from concept to product is uncertain; consequently, there can be no guarantee that any particular product candidate or development of a new indication for an existing product will be successful and become a commercial product. Further, some raw materials, medical devices and component parts for our products are supplied by sole third-party suppliers. Certain of our distributors, customers and payers have substantial purchasing leverage in their dealings with us. The discovery of significant problems with a product similar to one of our products that implicate an entire class of products could have a material adverse effect on sales of the affected products and on our

business and results of operations. Our efforts to collaborate with or acquire other companies, products or technology, and to integrate the operations of companies or to support the products or technology we have acquired, may not be successful. A breakdown, cyberattack or information security breach could compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our systems and our data. Our stock price is volatile and may be affected by a number of events. Global economic conditions may magnify certain risks that affect our business. Our business performance could affect or limit the ability of our Board of Directors to declare a dividend or our ability to pay a dividend or repurchase our common stock. We may not be able to access the capital and credit markets on terms that are favorable to us, or at all.

*Effective January 2021, we began to exclude the gains and losses on our investments in equity securities from our non-GAAP measures that are recorded to Other income, net pursuant to an update to our non-GAAP policy. For comparability of results to the prior year, non-GAAP Other income, net, non-GAAP Net income and non-GAAP EPS amounts for 2020 have been revised to reflect the update to our non-GAAP policy.

| (b) | The adjustments for the three months ended December 31, 2021, related primarily to noncash amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions. The adjustments for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, related primarily to licensing-related expense from the upfront payment to Kyowa Kirin Co., Ltd. and noncash amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions. The adjustments for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2020, related primarily to noncash amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions. | |||||||
| (c) | For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the adjustments related primarily to legal matters. | |||||||
| (d) | The tax effect of the adjustments between our GAAP and non-GAAP results takes into account the tax treatment and related tax rate(s) that apply to each adjustment in the applicable tax jurisdiction(s). Generally, this results in a tax impact at the U.S. marginal tax rate for certain adjustments, including the majority of amortization of intangible assets, whereas the tax impact of other adjustments, including restructuring initiatives, depends on whether the amounts are deductible in the respective tax jurisdictions and the applicable tax rate(s) in those jurisdictions. Acquired IPR&D expense from the Five Prime acquisition was not tax deductible. Due to these factors, the effective tax rates for the adjustments to our GAAP income before income taxes, for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021, were 16.0% and 13.9%, compared to 16.5% and 19.3% for the corresponding periods of the prior year. | |||||||

Reconciliation of 2020 Non-GAAP Financial Information As Reported to Updated Non-GAAP Policy
2020 Non-GAAP Financial Results - Excluding gains and losses from equity investments
(Unaudited)
Effective January 2021, we began to exclude the gains and losses on our investments in equity securities from our non-GAAP measures that are recorded to Other income, net pursuant to an update to our non-GAAP policy. This policy update excludes our share of the earnings and losses of our strategic investments in corporations accounted for under the equity method of accounting, such as our investment in BeiGene. This updated non-GAAP policy is the basis for our comparisons starting in 2021. The reconciliations below show the effects of the application of the new policy as if it had been adopted at the beginning of 2020.
