NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2017

(Unaudited)

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

Business

Amgen Inc. (including its subsidiaries, referred to as “Amgen,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is a global biotechnology pioneer that discovers, develops, manufactures and delivers innovative human therapeutics. We operate in one business segment: human therapeutics.

Basis of presentation

The financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments unless otherwise indicated), which Amgen considers necessary for a fair presentation of its condensed consolidated results of operations for those periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Amgen as well as its majority-owned subsidiaries. We do not have any significant interests in any variable interest entities. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Property, plant and equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, of $7.6 billion and $7.5 billion as of March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a new accounting standard that amends the guidance for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers to transfer goods and services. The FASB has subsequently issued additional, clarifying standards to address issues arising from implementation of the new revenue recognition standard. The new revenue recognition standard and clarifying standards are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2018, but could have been adopted early beginning January 1, 2017. The new standards are required to be adopted using either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. We expect to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective approach beginning in 2018. We have substantially completed our impact assessment and do not currently anticipate a material impact to our Total revenues. We continue to review the impact that this new standard will have on collaborations and license arrangements, as well as our financial statement disclosures. As we complete our assessment, we are also identifying and preparing to implement changes to our accounting policies, business processes, and internal controls to support the new accounting and disclosure requirements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that amends the accounting and disclosures of financial instruments, including a provision that requires equity investments (except for investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting) to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in current earnings. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2018. The impact that this new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements is dependent on the fair value of available-for-sale securities in our portfolio in the future. See Note 5, Available-for-sale investments, for the fair value of equity securities as of March 31, 2017.

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that amends the guidance for the accounting and disclosure of leases. This new standard requires that lessees recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases on the balance sheet, including leases classified as operating leases under current GAAP, and disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements. The new standard requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption and is effective for interim and

annual periods beginning on January 1, 2019, but may be adopted earlier. We expect to adopt this standard beginning in 2019. We continue to evaluate the impact that this new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, including related disclosures, as well as our business processes and systems, accounting policies and internal controls. We do not expect that this standard will have a material impact to our Consolidated Statements of Income, but we do expect that upon adoption, this standard will have a material impact to our assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, as well as our systems and processes.

In June 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that amends the guidance for measuring and recording credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost by replacing the “incurred loss” model with an “expected loss” model. Accordingly, these financial assets will be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This new standard also requires that credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities be recorded through an allowance for such losses rather than reducing the carrying amount under the current, other-than-temporary-impairment model. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2020. We are currently evaluating the impact that this new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that changes the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating when a set of assets acquired or disposed of should be considered a business. The new standard requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set would not be considered a business. The new standard also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs. We expect that these provisions will reduce the number of transactions that will be considered a business. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2018, and may be adopted earlier. We expect to adopt this standard beginning in 2018. The standard would be applied prospectively to any transaction occurring on or after the adoption date. We are currently evaluating the impact that this new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

2. Restructuring

In 2014, we initiated a restructuring plan to invest in continuing innovation and the launch of our new pipeline molecules, while improving our cost structure. As part of the plan, we have closed facilities in Washington State and Colorado and are reducing the number of buildings we occupy at our headquarters in Thousand Oaks, California, as well as at other locations.

We continue to estimate that we will incur $800 million to $900 million of pre-tax charges in connection with our restructuring, including (i) separation and other headcount-related costs of $535 million to $585 million with respect to staff reductions and (ii) asset-related charges of $265 million to $315 million consisting primarily of asset impairments, accelerated depreciation and other related costs resulting from the consolidation of our worldwide facilities. Through March 31, 2017, we have incurred a total of $511 million of separation and other headcount-related costs and $237 million of net asset-related charges.

The amounts related to the restructuring recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, were not significant. As of March 31, 2017, the total restructuring liability was not significant.

3. Income taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was 15.8% compared with 15.9% for the corresponding period of the prior year. The effective rates differ from the federal statutory rates primarily as a result of indefinitely invested earnings of our foreign operations. We do not provide for U.S. income taxes on undistributed earnings of our foreign operations that are intended to be invested indefinitely outside the United States.

The decrease in our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was due primarily to the favorable tax impact of changes in the jurisdictional mix of income and expenses, offset partially by lower tax benefits from share-based compensation payments.

The U.S. territory of Puerto Rico imposes an excise tax on the gross intercompany purchase price of goods and services from our manufacturer in Puerto Rico. The rate is 4% and is effective through December 31, 2027. We account for the excise tax as a manufacturing cost that is capitalized in inventory and expensed in cost of sales when the related products are sold. For U.S. income tax purposes, the excise tax results in foreign tax credits that are generally recognized in our provision for income taxes when the excise tax is incurred.

One or more of our legal entities file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. state jurisdictions and certain foreign jurisdictions. Our income tax returns are routinely audited by the tax authorities in those jurisdictions. Significant disputes may arise with these tax authorities involving issues of the timing and amount of deductions, the use of tax credits and allocations of income and expenses among various tax jurisdictions because of differing interpretations of tax laws, regulations and the interpretation of the relevant facts. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we received Notices of Proposed

Adjustment from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012. The significant proposed adjustments relate primarily to the allocation of profits between certain of our entities in the United States and the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico and allocate additional profits to the United States. On April 12, 2017, we received a Revenue Agent’s Report from the IRS for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012 that included the proposed adjustments. We disagree with the proposed adjustments and plan to initiate the administrative appeals process, which will likely not be concluded within the next 12 months. Final resolution of the IRS audit could have a material impact on our results of operations and cash flows if not resolved favorably, however, we believe our income tax reserves are appropriately provided for all open tax years. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years ended on or before December 31, 2009. In addition, we are currently under examination by a number of other state and foreign tax jurisdictions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the gross amount of our unrecognized tax benefits (UTBs) increased by approximately $115 million, as a result of tax positions taken during the current year. Substantially all of the UTBs as of March 31, 2017, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate.

4. Earnings per share

The computation of basic earnings per share (EPS) is based on the weighted-average number of our common shares outstanding. The computation of diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of our common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares, which include primarily shares that may be issued under our stock option, restricted stock and performance unit award programs, as determined using the treasury stock method (collectively, dilutive securities).

The computations for basic and diluted EPS were as follows (in millions, except per share data):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016
Income (Numerator):
Net income for basic and diluted EPS	$	2,071	$	1,900

Shares (Denominator):

Weighted-average shares for diluted EPS	741		760

Basic EPS	$	2.81	$	2.52
Diluted EPS	$	2.79	$	2.50

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the number of anti-dilutive employee share-based awards excluded from the computation of diluted EPS was not significant.

5. Available-for-sale investments

The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains, gross unrealized losses and estimated fair values of available-for-sale investments by type of security were as follows (in millions):

The primary objective of our investment portfolio is to enhance overall returns in an efficient manner while maintaining safety of principal, prudent levels of liquidity and acceptable levels of risk. Our investment policy limits interest-bearing security investments to certain types of debt and money market instruments issued by institutions with primarily investment-grade credit ratings, and it places restrictions on maturities and concentration by asset class and issuer.

We review our available-for-sale investments for other-than-temporary declines in fair value below our cost basis each quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the cost basis of an asset may not be recoverable. The evaluation is based on a number of factors, including the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been below our cost basis and adverse conditions related specifically to the security, including any changes to the credit rating of the security, and the intent to sell, or whether we will more likely than not be required to sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Our assessment of whether a security is other-than-temporarily impaired could change in the future based on new developments or changes in assumptions related to that particular security. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we believe the cost bases for our available-for-sale investments were recoverable in all material respects.

Developed product technology rights consist of rights related to marketed products acquired in business combinations. Licensing rights consist primarily of contractual rights acquired in business combinations to receive future milestones, royalties and profit sharing payments, capitalized payments to third parties for milestones related to regulatory approvals to commercialize products and up-front payments associated with royalty obligations for marketed products. Marketing-related intangible assets consist primarily of rights related to the sale and distribution of marketed products. Research and development (R&D) technology rights consist of technology used in R&D with alternative future uses.

In-process research and development (IPR&D) consists of R&D projects acquired in a business combination that are not complete at the time of acquisition due to remaining technological risks and/or lack of receipt of required regulatory approvals. As of March 31, 2017, the projects include primarily AMG 899 (formerly TA-8995), acquired in the acquisition of Dezima Pharma B.V. (Dezima) in 2015 and oprozomib, acquired in the acquisition of Onyx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in 2013. The valuation of AMG 899 reflects delayed development pending competitor clinical trials in the class. Information from these trials is expected in the second quarter of 2017.

All IPR&D projects have major risks and uncertainties associated with the timely and successful completion of development and commercialization of these product candidates, including our ability to confirm their safety and efficacy based on data from clinical trials, our ability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals and our ability to successfully complete these tasks within budgeted costs. We are not permitted to market a human therapeutic without obtaining regulatory approvals, and such approvals require our completing clinical trials that demonstrate a product candidate is safe and effective. In addition, the availability and extent of coverage and reimbursement from third-party payers, including government healthcare programs and private insurance plans, as well as competitive product launches, impact the revenues a product can generate. Consequently, the eventual realized value, if any, of these acquired IPR&D projects may vary from their estimated fair values. We review IPR&D projects for impairment annually, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable and upon the establishment of technological feasibility or regulatory approval.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recognized amortization charges associated with our finite-lived intangible assets of $373 million and $369 million, respectively. The total estimated amortization charges for our finite-lived intangible assets for the remaining nine months ending December 31, 2017, and the years ending December 31, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, are $1.0 billion, $1.2 billion, $1.1 billion, $1.1 billion, $0.9 billion and $0.9 billion, respectively.

There are no material differences between the effective interest rates and coupon rates of any of our borrowings, except for the 4.563% 2048 Notes and the 4.663% 2051 Notes, which have effective interest rates of approximately 6.3% and 5.6%, respectively.

Under the terms of all of our outstanding notes, except our Other notes, in the event of a change-in-control triggering event, we may be required to purchase all or a portion of these debt securities at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, all of our outstanding notes, except for our floating rate notes, 0.41% 2023 Swiss franc Bonds and Other notes, may be redeemed at any time at our option, in whole or in part, at the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. Redemption of certain of our notes would also require the payment of a make-whole amount as defined by the terms of the notes, except if such redemption occurs during a specified period of time immediately prior to the maturity date of the notes. Such time periods generally range from one to six months prior to the maturity date.

Debt repayments

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we repaid the $605 million short-term loan.

10. Fair value measurement

To estimate the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities, we use valuation approaches within a hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is divided into three levels based on the source of inputs as follows:



Level 1	—	Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access
Level 2	—	Valuations for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, other than level 1 inputs
Level 3	—	Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement

The availability of observable inputs can vary among the various types of financial assets and liabilities. To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used for measuring fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for financial statement disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level of input used that is significant to the overall fair value measurement.

The fair values of each major class of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in millions):

The fair values of our U.S. Treasury securities, money market mutual funds and equity securities are based on quoted market prices in active markets with no valuation adjustment.

Most of our other government-related and corporate debt securities are investment grade with maturity dates of five years or less from the balance sheet date. Our other government-related debt securities portfolio is composed of securities with weighted-average credit ratings of A- or equivalent by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (Moody’s) or Fitch Ratings Inc. (Fitch), and BBB+ or equivalent by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (S&P), and our corporate debt securities portfolio has a weighted-average credit rating of A- or equivalent by Fitch, and BBB + or equivalent by S&P or Moody’s. We estimate the fair values of these securities by taking into consideration valuations obtained from third-party pricing services. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income- and market-based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. These inputs include reported trades of and broker/dealer quotes on the same or similar securities; issuer credit spreads; benchmark securities; and other observable inputs.

Our residential mortgage-, other mortgage- and asset-backed securities portfolio is composed entirely of senior tranches, with credit ratings of AAA by S&P, Moody’s or Fitch. We estimate the fair values of these securities by taking into consideration valuations obtained from third-party pricing services. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income- and market-based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. These inputs include reported trades of and broker/dealer quotes on the same or similar securities; issuer credit spreads; benchmark securities; prepayment/default projections based on historical data; and other observable inputs.

We value our other short-term interest-bearing securities at amortized cost, which approximates fair value given their near-term maturity dates.

All of our foreign currency forward and option derivatives contracts have maturities of three years or less, and all are with counterparties that have minimum credit ratings of A- or equivalent by S&P or Moody’s. We estimate the fair values of these contracts by taking into consideration valuations obtained from a third-party valuation service that utilizes an income-based industry standard valuation model for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. These inputs include foreign currency exchange rates, London Interbank Offered Rates (LIBOR), swap rates and obligor credit default swap rates. In addition, inputs for our foreign currency option contracts include implied volatility measures. These inputs, where applicable, are at commonly quoted intervals. See Note 11, Derivative instruments.

Our cross-currency swap contracts are with counterparties that have minimum credit ratings of A- or equivalent by S&P or Moody’s. We estimate the fair values of these contracts by taking into consideration valuations obtained from a third-party valuation service that utilizes an income-based industry standard valuation model for which all significant inputs are observable either directly or indirectly. These inputs include foreign currency exchange rates, LIBOR, swap rates, obligor credit default swap rates and cross-currency basis swap spreads. See Note 11, Derivative instruments.

Our interest rate swap contracts are with counterparties that have minimum credit ratings of A- or equivalent by S&P or Moody’s. We estimate the fair values of these contracts by using an income-based industry standard valuation model for which all significant inputs were observable either directly or indirectly. These inputs included LIBOR, swap rates and obligor credit default swap rates.

Contingent consideration obligations

As a result of our business acquisitions, we incurred contingent consideration obligations, as discussed below. These contingent consideration obligations are recorded at their estimated fair values, and we revalue these obligations each reporting period until the related contingencies are resolved. The fair value measurements of these obligations are based on significant unobservable inputs related to product candidates acquired in business combinations and are reviewed quarterly by management in our R&D and commercial sales organizations. These inputs include, as applicable, estimated probabilities and timing of achieving specified regulatory and commercial milestones and estimated annual sales. Significant changes that increase or decrease the probabilities of achieving the related regulatory and commercial events, shorten or lengthen the time required to achieve such events, or increase or decrease estimated annual sales would result in corresponding increases or decreases in the fair values of these obligations, as applicable. Changes in the fair values of contingent consideration obligations are recognized in Other operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Changes in the carrying amounts of contingent consideration obligations were as follows (in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016
Beginning balance	$	179	$	188
Net changes in valuation	5		6
Ending balance	$	184	$	194

As a result of our acquisition of Dezima in October 2015, we are obligated to pay its former shareholders up to $1.25 billion of additional consideration contingent upon achieving certain development and sales-related milestones and low single-digit royalties on net product sales above a certain threshold. The estimated fair values of the contingent consideration obligations had an aggregate value of $110 million at acquisition.

As a result of our acquisition of BioVex Group, Inc. (BioVex), in 2011, we are obligated to pay its former shareholders up to $325 million of additional consideration contingent upon the achievement of certain sales thresholds related to IMLYGIC^®(talimogene laherparepvec) within specified periods of time.

We estimate the fair values of the obligations to the former shareholders of Dezima and BioVex by using probability-adjusted discounted cash flows, and we review underlying key assumptions on a quarterly basis. There were no significant changes in the estimated aggregate fair values of contingent consideration obligations during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between fair value measurement levels, and there were no material remeasurements to the fair values of assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Summary of the fair values of other financial instruments

Cash equivalents

The estimated fair values of cash equivalents approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of such financial instruments.

Borrowings

We estimated the fair value of our long-term debt (Level 2) by taking into consideration indicative prices obtained from a third-party financial institution that utilizes industry standard valuation models, including both income- and market-based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable either directly or indirectly. These inputs include reported trades of and broker/dealer quotes on the same or similar securities; credit spreads; benchmark yields; foreign currency exchange rates, as applicable; and other observable inputs. As of March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the aggregate fair values of our long-term debt were $36.2 billion and $36.5 billion, respectively, and the carrying values were $34.1 billion and $34.6 billion, respectively.

11. Derivative instruments

The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate risks related to its business operations. To reduce our risks related to these exposures, we utilize or have utilized certain derivative instruments, including foreign currency forward, foreign currency option, cross-currency swap, forward interest rate and interest rate swap contracts. We do not use derivatives for speculative trading purposes.

Cash flow hedges

We are exposed to possible changes in the values of certain anticipated foreign currency cash flows resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, associated primarily with our euro-denominated international product sales. Increases and decreases in the cash flows associated with our international product sales due to movements in foreign currency exchange rates are offset partially by corresponding increases and decreases in the cash flows from our international operating expenses resulting from these foreign currency exchange rate movements. To further reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on our international product sales, we enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts to hedge a portion of our projected international product sales primarily over a three-year time horizon, with, at any given point in time, a higher percentage of nearer-term projected product sales being hedged than in successive periods.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had open foreign currency forward contracts with notional amounts of $3.5 billion and $3.4 billion, respectively, and open foreign currency option contracts with notional amounts of $425 million and $608 million, respectively. We have designated these foreign currency forward and foreign currency option contracts, which are primarily euro based, as cash flow hedges; and accordingly, we report the effective portions of the unrealized gains and losses on these contracts in AOCI in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and we reclassify them to earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.

To hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain of our long-term debt denominated in foreign currencies, we enter into cross-currency swap contracts. Under the terms of these contracts, we paid euros/pounds sterling and Swiss francs and received U.S. dollars for the notional amounts at the inception of the contracts; and based on these notional amounts, we exchange interest payments at fixed rates over the lives of the contracts by paying U.S. dollars and receiving euros, pounds sterling and Swiss francs. In addition, we will pay U.S. dollars to and receive euros, pounds sterling and Swiss francs from the counterparties at the maturities of the contracts for these same notional amounts. The terms of these contracts correspond to the related hedged debt, effectively converting the interest payments and principal repayment on the debt from euros, pounds sterling and Swiss francs to U.S. dollars. We have designated these cross-currency swap contracts as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, the effective portions of the unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are reported in AOCI in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and reclassified to earnings in the same periods during which the hedged debt affects earnings.

The notional amounts and interest rates of our cross-currency swaps are as follows (notional amounts in millions):

No portions of our cash flow hedge contracts are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness, and the gains and losses of the ineffective portions of these hedging instruments were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. As of March 31, 2017, the amounts expected to be reclassified out of AOCI and into earnings during the next 12 months are approximately $2 million of net gains on our foreign currency and cross-currency swap contracts and approximately $2 million of losses on forward interest rate contracts.

Fair value hedges

To achieve the desired mix of fixed and floating interest rates on our long-term debt, we entered into interest rate swap contracts that qualified and are designated as fair value hedges. The terms of these interest rate swap contracts correspond to the related hedged debt instruments and effectively convert a fixed interest rate coupon to a floating LIBOR-based coupon over the lives of the respective notes. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had interest rate swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $6.65 billion that hedge certain of our long-term debt issuances. These contracts have rates that range from three-month LIBOR plus 0.4% to three-month LIBOR plus 2.0%.

For derivative instruments that qualify and are designated as fair value hedges, we recognize in current earnings the unrealized gain or loss on the derivative resulting from the change in fair value during the period, as well as the offsetting unrealized loss or gain of the hedged item resulting from the change in fair value during the period attributable to the hedged risk. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we included unrealized losses of $19 million and unrealized gains of $149 million, respectively, on our interest rate swap agreements in the same line item, Interest expense, net, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, as the offsetting unrealized gains of $19 million and unrealized losses of $149 million, respectively, on the related hedged debt.

Derivatives not designated as hedges

To reduce our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations of certain assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts that are not designated as hedging transactions. These exposures are hedged on a month-to-month basis. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the total notional amounts of these foreign currency forward contracts were $740 million and $666 million, respectively.

The location in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and the amounts of gain/(loss) recognized in earnings for our derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments were as follows (in millions):

Our derivative contracts that were in liability positions as of March 31, 2017, contain certain credit-risk-related contingent provisions that would be triggered if: (i) we were to undergo a change in control and (ii) our or the surviving entity’s creditworthiness deteriorates, which is generally defined as having either a credit rating that is below investment grade or a materially weaker creditworthiness after the change in control. If these events were to occur, the counterparties would have the right, but not the obligation, to close the contracts under early-termination provisions. In such circumstances, the counterparties could request immediate settlement of the contracts for amounts that approximate the then current fair values of the contracts. In addition, our derivative contracts are not subject to any type of master netting arrangement, and amounts due to or from a counterparty under the contracts may be offset against other amounts due to or from the same counterparty only if an event of default or termination, as defined, were to occur.

The cash flow effects of our derivative contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, are included within Net cash provided by operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

12. Contingencies and commitments

Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various legal proceedings, government investigations and other matters that are complex in nature and have outcomes that are difficult to predict. (See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors—Our business may be affected by litigation and government investigations.) We describe our legal proceedings and other matters that are significant or that we believe could become significant in this Note; and in Note 18, Contingencies and commitments to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

We record accruals for loss contingencies to the extent that we conclude it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the related loss can be reasonably estimated. We evaluate, on a quarterly basis, developments in legal proceedings and other matters that could cause an increase or decrease in the amount of the liability that has been accrued previously.

Our legal proceedings range from cases brought by a single plaintiff to a class action with thousands of putative class members. These legal proceedings, as well as other matters, involve various aspects of our business and a variety of claims—including but not limited to patent infringement, marketing, pricing and trade practices and securities law—some of which present novel factual allegations and/or unique legal theories. In each of the matters described in this filing or in Note 18, Contingencies and commitments to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, plaintiffs seek an award of a not-yet-quantified amount of damages or an amount that is not material. In addition, a number of the matters pending against us are at very early stages of the legal process (which in complex proceedings of the sort faced by us often extend for several years). As a result, none of the matters pending against us described in this filing or in Note 18, Contingencies and commitments to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, have progressed sufficiently through discovery and/or development of important factual information and legal issues to enable us to estimate a range of possible loss, if any, or such amounts are not material. While it is not possible to accurately predict or determine the eventual outcomes of these matters, an adverse determination in one or more of these matters currently pending could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Certain recent developments concerning our legal proceedings and other matters are discussed below:

Sanofi/Regeneron Patent Litigation

As previously disclosed, defendants Sanofi, Sanofi-Aventis U.S. LLC, Aventisub LLC, formerly doing business as Aventis Pharmaceuticals Inc., and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. appealed the judgment of the U.S. District Court for Delaware (the Delaware District Court) that the patents in suit are valid and infringed by the defendants and the permanent injunction granted by the Delaware District Court prohibiting the infringing manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale or import of alirocumab in the United States. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the Federal Circuit Court) has scheduled argument on the appeal for June 6, 2017.

Sensipar^® (cinacalcet) Patent Litigation

As previously disclosed, Amgen filed 13 separate lawsuits in the Delaware District Court for infringement of our U.S. Patent No. 9,375,405 (the ‘405 Patent). On February 22, 2017, Amgen filed a lawsuit in the Delaware District Court against Zydus Pharmaceuticals (USA) Inc. and Cadila Healthcare Ltd. (collectively, Zydus). In each of the 14 lawsuits, Amgen seeks an order of the Delaware District Court making any U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of the defendants’ generic version of Sensipar^® effective no earlier than the expiration of the ‘405 Patent. In each lawsuit, all defendants except Zydus have responded to the complaint denying infringement and seeking judgment that the ‘405 Patent is invalid and/or not infringed. On February 23,

2017, and on April 6, 2017, for Zydus, the Delaware District Court consolidated the 14 lawsuits into a single case. The Delaware District Court has scheduled trial for March 5, 2018.

KYPROLIS^® (carfilzomib) Patent Litigation

As previously disclosed, our subsidiary Onyx Therapeutics, Inc. (Onyx Therapeutics) filed nine separate lawsuits in the Delaware District Court for infringing certain of our patents. On April 18, 2017, the Delaware District Court consolidated these nine lawsuits for purposes of discovery and scheduled trial for March 11, 2019. On April 20, 2017, Onyx Therapeutics filed a separate lawsuit in the Delaware District Court against Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. for infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 7,232,818; 7,417,042; 7,491,704; 7,737,112; 8,129,346; 8,207,125; 8,207,126; 8,207,127; and 8,207,297. These ten lawsuits are based on Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDAs) that seek approval to market generic versions of KYPROLIS^® before expiration of the asserted patents. In each lawsuit, Onyx Therapeutics seeks an order of the Delaware District Court making any FDA approval of the defendant’s ANDA effective no earlier than the expiration of the applicable patents.

Biosimilar Patent Litigations

We have filed a number of lawsuits against manufacturers of products that purport to be biosimilars of certain of our products. In each case, our complaint alleges that the manufacturer’s actions infringe certain patents we hold and that the manufacturer has failed to comply with certain provisions of the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act (BPCIA).

Sandoz Filgrastim Litigation

As previously disclosed, the U.S. Supreme Court granted certiorari on both Sandoz’s petition seeking review of the Federal Circuit Court ruling concluding that a biosimilar applicant must give 180-day advance notice of first marketing and that notice can be given only after the FDA has licensed the biosimilar product and Amgen’s conditional cross-petition seeking review of the Federal Circuit Court’s ruling that the only remedy available when a biosimilar applicant refuses to provide its Biologics License Application is to bring a patent infringement claim. On April 26, 2017, the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on Sandoz’s petition and Amgen’s conditional cross-petition.

Apotex Pegfilgrastim/Filgrastim Litigation

On February 17, 2017, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted a petition filed by Apotex to institute an inter partes review of our U.S. Patent No. 9,952,138 (the ‘138 Patent) challenging claims of the ‘138 Patent as unpatentable.

Hospira Epoetin Alfa Litigation

On April 3, 2017, the Federal Circuit Court heard arguments on Amgen’s appeal seeking review of the Delaware District Court’s order that Hospira need not provide Amgen discovery of certain of its manufacturing processes that Hospira withheld during the BPCIA dispute resolution process.

State Derivative Litigation

As previously disclosed, the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Ventura, lifted the stay in Larson v. Sharer, et al., a state stockholder derivative lawsuit. On March 15, 2017, the plaintiffs in this lawsuit filed a motion for leave to file a third amended complaint.

ERISA Litigation

On April 5, 2017, the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California entered a final order approving the settlement of this class action lawsuit.



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

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is intended to assist the reader in understanding Amgen’s business. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Our results of operations discussed in MD&A are presented in conformity with GAAP. Amgen operates in one business segment: human therapeutics. Therefore, our results of operations are discussed on a consolidated basis.

Significant developments

Following is a summary of selected significant developments affecting our business that have occurred since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2016. For additional developments or for a more comprehensive discussion of certain developments discussed below, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Products/Pipeline

Bone Health

XGEVA^®

•

In April 2017, we announced the submission of a supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) to the FDA and an application for a variation to the marketing authorization to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for XGEVA^®. The submissions to regulatory authorities seek to expand the currently approved XGEVA^® indication for the prevention of skeletal-related events in solid tumors to include patients with multiple myeloma.

Cardiovascular

Repatha^®


•	In February 2017, we announced that the European Commission (EC) adopted a decision to change the Repatha^® marketing authorization, approving a new single-dose, monthly delivery option. The new automated mini-doser with a pre-filled cartridge is a hands-free device that provides 420 mg of Repatha^® in a single injection per administration.


•	In March 2017, we announced that the Phase 3 study evaluating Repatha^®in patients who were receiving apheresis to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) met its primary endpoint.


•	In March 2017, we announced that the Repatha^®cardiovascular outcomes study established for the first time that maximally reducing LDL-C levels with Repatha^®, beyond what is possible with the current best therapy alone, leads to a further reduction in major cardiovascular events, including heart attacks, strokes and coronary revascularizations. No new safety concerns were identified.


•	In March 2017, we announced that the Repatha^®cognitive function study met its primary endpoint, demonstrating that Repatha^® did not negatively impact cognition when added to optimized statin therapy.

Neuroscience

Erenumab


•	In April 2017, we announced an expanded collaboration with Novartis AG (Novartis) for erenumab, which is being investigated for the prevention of migraine. As part of the expanded collaboration, Amgen and Novartis agreed to combine capabilities to co-commercialize erenumab in the United States.

Oncology/Hematology

BLINCYTO^®

•

In March 2017, we announced that the FDA accepted for priority review the sBLA for BLINCYTO^® to include overall survival data from the Phase 3 TOWER study. The application also included new data supporting the treatment of patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The FDA has set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act target action date of August 14, 2017.

KYPROLIS^®

•

In February 2017, we announced positive results from a planned overall survival interim analysis of the Phase 3 head-to-head ENDEAVOR (RandomizEd, OpeN Label, Phase 3 Study of Carfilzomib Plus DExamethAsone Vs Bortezomib Plus DexamethasOne in Patients With Relapsed Multiple Myeloma) trial. The study met the key secondary endpoint of overall survival demonstrating that patients with relapse or refractory multiple myeloma treated with KYPROLIS^® and dexamethasone lived 7.6 months longer than those treated with VELCADE^® (bortezomib) and dexamethasone.

Biosimilars

AMJEVITA^™ (adalimumab-atto)/AMGEVITA^™ (biosimilar adalimumab)


•	In March 2017, we announced that the EC granted market authorization for AMGEVITA^™in all available indications. For a discussion of ongoing, related litigation, see Note 18, Contingencies and commitments, to our consolidated financial statements in Part IV of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

ABP 980


•	In March 2017, we announced the submission of a Marketing Authorization Application to the EMA for ABP 980, a biosimilar candidate to Herceptin^®(trastuzumab). ABP 980 is being developed in collaboration with Allergan plc.

Selected financial information

The following is an overview of our results of operations (dollar and share amounts in millions, except per share data):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
Product sales:
U.S.	$	4,095	$	4,119	(1	)%
Rest of the world (ROW)	1,104		1,120		(1	)%
Total product sales	5,199		5,239		(1	)%
Other revenues	265		288		(8	)%
Total revenues	$	5,464	$	5,527	(1	)%
Operating expenses	$	2,873	$	3,125	(8	)%
Operating income	$	2,591	$	2,402	8	%
Net income	$	2,071	$	1,900	9	%
Diluted EPS	$	2.79	$	2.50	12	%
Diluted shares	741		760		(3	)%

Global product sales decreased one percent for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

The decrease in other revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by an upfront payment for a licensing transaction in the prior period, offset partially by higher milestone payments received and higher Ibrance^® (palbociclib) royalty income.

Operating expenses decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2017. All expense categories benefited from our transformation and process improvement efforts. As in prior years, our operating expenses are expected to be higher in the remaining quarters of the year driven by the timing of expenses.

The increases in net income and diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2017, were driven primarily by higher operating margins.

Although changes in foreign currency exchange rates result in increases or decreases in our reported international product sales, the benefit or detriment that such movements have on our international product sales is offset partially by corresponding increases or decreases in our international operating expenses and our related foreign currency hedging activities. Our hedging activities seek to offset the impacts, both positive and negative, that foreign currency exchange rate changes may have on our net income by hedging our net foreign currency exposure, primarily with respect to product sales denominated in euros. The net impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates was not material for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Results of operations

Product sales

Worldwide product sales were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
Neulasta^®	$	1,210	$	1,183	2	%
ENBREL	1,181		1,385		(15	)%
Aranesp^®	511		532		(4	)%

XGEVA^®	402		378		6	%
EPOGEN^®	270		300		(10	)%
Other products	779		742		5	%
Total product sales	$	5,199	$	5,239	(1	)%

Future sales of our products are influenced by a number of factors, some of which may impact sales of certain of our products more significantly than others. Such factors are discussed below and in the following sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016: (i) Overview, Item 1. Business—Marketing, Distribution and Selected Marketed Products, (ii) Item 1A. Risk Factors and (iii) Item 7. Results of Operations—Product Sales.

Neulasta^®

Total Neulasta^®sales by geographic region were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
Neulasta^®— U.S.	$	1,048	$	996	5	%
Neulasta^®— ROW	162		187		(13	)%
Total Neulasta^®	$	1,210	$	1,183	2	%

The increase in global Neulasta^®sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by favorable changes in accounting estimates and net selling price, offset partially by lower unit demand. As of March 31, 2017, utilization of the Neulasta^® OnPro^® kit continues to grow in the United States.

Future Neulasta^® sales will also depend in part on the development of new protocols, tests and/or treatments for cancer and/or new chemotherapy treatments or alternatives to chemotherapy that may have reduced and may continue to reduce the use of chemotherapy in some patients.

ENBREL

Total ENBREL sales by geographic region were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
ENBREL — U.S.	$	1,118	$	1,326	(16	)%
ENBREL — Canada	63		59		7	%
Total ENBREL	$	1,181	$	1,385	(15	)%

ENBREL sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, decreased primarily due to the impact from competition, as well as lower rheumatology and dermatology segment growth compared to prior year.

Aranesp^®

Total Aranesp^® sales by geographic region were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
Aranesp^® — U.S.	$	278	$	261	7	%
Aranesp^® — ROW	233		271		(14	)%
Total Aranesp^®	$	511	$	532	(4	)%

The decrease in global Aranesp^® sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates, inventory levels and net selling price, offset partially by higher unit demand, including a shift by some U.S. dialysis customers from EPOGEN^® to Aranesp^®.

Aranesp^® may face short-acting competition from a proposed biosimilar in the United States.

Prolia^®

Total Prolia^® sales by geographic region were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
Prolia^® — U.S.	$	279	$	221	26	%
Prolia^® — ROW	146		131		11	%
Total Prolia^®	$	425	$	352	21	%

The increase in global Prolia^®sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by higher unit demand.

Sensipar^®/Mimpara^®

Total Sensipar^®/Mimpara^® sales by geographic region were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
Sensipar^® — U.S.	$	337	$	278	21	%
Sensipar^®/Mimpara^® — ROW	84		89		(6	)%
Total Sensipar^®/Mimpara^®	$	421	$	367	15	%

The increase in global Sensipar^®/Mimpara^® sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by an increase in net selling price.

Our U.S. composition of matter patent relating to Sensipar^®, a small molecule, expires in March 2018. We are also involved in litigation with a number of companies seeking to market generic versions of Sensipar^®regarding our U.S. formulation patent that expires in September 2026. See Note 12, Contingencies and commitments, to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

XGEVA^®

Total XGEVA^® sales by geographic region were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
XGEVA^® — U.S.	$	298	$	271	10	%
XGEVA^® — ROW	104		107		(3	)%
Total XGEVA^®	$	402	$	378	6	%

The increase in global XGEVA^®sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by higher unit demand.

EPOGEN^®

Total EPOGEN^® sales were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
EPOGEN^® — U.S.	$	270	$	300	(10	)%

The decrease in EPOGEN^® sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by a decrease in net selling price due to a recently negotiated contract with DaVita Inc.

Transformation and process improvements

During 2014, we announced transformation and process improvement efforts that we continue to execute on. As part of these efforts, we committed to a more agile and efficient operating model. Our transformation and process improvement efforts across the Company are enabling us to reallocate resources to fund many of our innovative pipeline and growth opportunities that deliver value to patients and stockholders.

The transformation includes a restructuring plan that will result in pre-tax accounting charges in the range of $800 million to $900 million. As of March 31, 2017, restructuring costs incurred to date were $748 million. The charges that were recorded related to the restructuring during the three months ended March 31, 2017, were not significant. Since 2014, we have realized approximately $1.2 billion of transformation and process improvement savings. Net savings have not been significant as savings were reinvested in product launches, clinical programs and external business development.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales decreased to 18.2% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease was driven primarily by manufacturing efficiencies, offset partially by product mix.

The excise tax imposed by the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico on the gross intercompany purchase price of goods and services from our manufacturer in Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico excise tax) is recorded as a cost of sales expense. Excluding the impact of the Puerto Rico excise tax, cost of sales would have been 16.6% and 16.8% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. See Note 3, Income taxes, to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the Puerto Rico excise tax.

Research and development

The decrease in R&D expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by a payment in the three months ended March 31, 2016, related to a third-party collaboration agreement and lower spending required to support certain later-stage clinical programs.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, costs associated with our later-stage clinical programs and marketed products support decreased by $40 million and $63 million, respectively. Discovery Research and Translational Sciences spend was relatively unchanged for both periods.

Selling, general and administrative

The decrease in Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was driven primarily by the expiration of the ENBREL residual royalty payments on October 31, 2016, as well as a charge related to an acquisition in the three months ended March 31, 2016, offset partially by investments in product launches.

Other

Other operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017, included certain charges related to our restructuring plan, primarily separation costs.

Other operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016, included a legal proceeding charge of $27 million.

Non-operating expenses/income and income taxes

Non-operating expenses/income and income taxes were as follows (dollar amounts in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017			2016
Interest expense, net	$	326		$	294
Interest and other income, net	$	195		$	150
Provision for income taxes	$	389		$	358
Effective tax rate	15.8		%	15.9		%

Interest expense, net

The increase in Interest expense, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was due primarily to a higher average amount of debt outstanding.

Interest and other income, net

The increase in Interest and other income, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, was due primarily to higher interest income that resulted from higher average investment balances.

Income taxes

Excluding the impact of the Puerto Rico excise tax, our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017, would have been 18.5%, compared with 18.8% for the corresponding period of the prior year.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we received Notices of Proposed Adjustment from the IRS for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012. The significant proposed adjustments relate primarily to the allocation of profits between certain of our entities in the United States and the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico and allocate additional profits to the United States. On April 12, 2017, we received a Revenue Agent’s Report from the IRS for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012 that included the proposed adjustments. We disagree with the proposed adjustments and plan to initiate the administrative appeals process, which will likely not be concluded within the next 12 months. Final resolution of the IRS audit could have a material impact on our results of operations and cash flows if not resolved favorably, however, we believe our income tax reserves are appropriately provided for all open tax years.

See Note 3, Income taxes, to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Financial condition, liquidity and capital resources

Selected financial data were as follows (in millions):



	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities	$	38,398	$	38,085
Total assets	$	77,862	$	77,626
Current portion of long-term debt	$	3,799	$	4,403
Long-term debt	$	30,293	$	30,193
Stockholders’ equity	$	30,637	$	29,875

We intend to continue to return capital to stockholders through the payment of cash dividends and stock repurchases reflecting our confidence in the future cash flows of our business. The timing and amount of future dividends and stock repurchases will

vary based on a number of factors, including future capital requirements for strategic transactions, the availability of financing on acceptable terms, debt service requirements, our credit rating, changes to applicable tax laws or corporate laws, changes to our business model and periodic determination by our Board of Directors that cash dividends and/or stock repurchases are in the best interests of stockholders and are in compliance with applicable laws and agreements of the Company. In addition, the timing and amount of stock repurchases may also be affected by the stock price and blackout periods, during which we are restricted from repurchasing stock. The manner of stock repurchases may include private block purchases, tender offers and market transactions.

In March 2017, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.15 per share of common stock, which will be paid on June 8, 2017. In December 2016, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.15 per share of common stock, which was paid on March 8, 2017.

We have also returned capital to stockholders through our stock repurchase program. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we repurchased $555 million of our stock and paid $586 million in cash during the period. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we repurchased $690 million of our stock and paid $676 million in cash during the period. As of March 31, 2017, $3.5 billion remained available under the Board of Directors-approved stock repurchase program.

We believe that existing funds, cash generated from operations and existing sources of and access to financing are adequate to satisfy our needs for working capital; capital expenditure and debt service requirements; our plans to pay dividends and repurchase stock; and other business initiatives we plan to strategically pursue, including acquisitions and licensing activities. We anticipate that our liquidity needs can be met through a variety of sources, including cash provided by operating activities, sales of marketable securities, borrowings through commercial paper and/or our syndicated credit facilities and access to other domestic and foreign debt markets and equity markets. With respect to our U.S. operations, we believe that existing funds intended for use in the United States; cash generated from our U.S. operations, including intercompany payments and receipts; and existing sources of and access to financing (collectively, U.S. funds) are adequate to continue meeting our U.S. obligations, including our plans to pay dividends and repurchase stock with U.S. funds, for the foreseeable future. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors—Global economic conditions may negatively affect us and may magnify certain risks that affect our business.

Of our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances totaling $38.4 billion as of March 31, 2017, approximately $35.0 billion was generated from operations in foreign tax jurisdictions and is intended to be invested indefinitely outside the United States. Under current tax laws, if these funds were repatriated for use in our U.S. operations, we would be required to pay additional income taxes at the tax rates then in effect.

Certain of our financing arrangements contain non-financial covenants. In addition, our revolving credit agreement includes a financial covenant with respect to the level of our borrowings in relation to our equity, as defined. We were in compliance with all applicable covenants under these arrangements as of March 31, 2017.

Cash flows

Our cash flow activities were as follows (in millions):



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017			2016
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	2,385		$	1,915
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(157	)	$	(4,390	)
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	$	(2,111	)	$	1,227

Operating

Cash provided by operating activities has been and is expected to continue to be our primary recurring source of funds. Cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2017, increased compared with the same period in the prior year due primarily to the timing of payments to taxing authorities and an increase in net income.

Investing

Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2017, was due primarily to capital expenditures of $168 million, offset partially by net activity from marketable securities of $63 million. Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2016, was due primarily to net activity related to marketable securities of $4.2 billion and capital expenditures of $156 million. Capital expenditures during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, were associated primarily with manufacturing capacity expansions in various locations, as well as other site developments. We currently estimate 2017 spending on capital projects and equipment to be approximately $700 million.

Financing

Cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2017, was due primarily to the payment of dividends of $847 million, a debt repayment of $605 million and repurchases of our common stock of $586 million. Cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2016, was due primarily to proceeds from the issuance of debt, net of repayments, of $2.8 billion, offset partially by the payment of dividends of $752 million and repurchases of our common stock of $676 million.

See Note 8, Financing arrangements, and Note 9, Stockholders’ equity, to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Critical accounting policies

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements. Some of those judgments can be subjective and complex, and therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A summary of our critical accounting policies is presented in Part II, Item 7, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2017.



Item 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Information about our market risk is disclosed in Part II, Item 7A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and is incorporated herein by reference. There have been no material changes during the three months ended March 31, 2017, to the information provided in Part II, Item 7A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.



Item 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Amgen’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to Amgen’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, Amgen’s management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and, in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, Amgen’s management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. We have carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including Amgen’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Amgen’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon their evaluation and subject to the foregoing, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2017.

Management determined that, as of March 31, 2017, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter then ended that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION



Item 1.	LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

See Note 12, Contingencies and commitments, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017, for discussions that are limited to certain recent developments concerning our legal proceedings. Those discussions should be read in conjunction with Note 18, Contingencies and commitments, to our consolidated financial statements in Part IV of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.



Item 1A.	RISK FACTORS

This report and other documents we file with the SEC contain forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about us, our future performance, our business, our beliefs and our management’s assumptions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and they involve certain risks, uncertainties and

assumptions that are difficult to predict. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties facing our business. We have described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, the primary risks related to our business, and we periodically update those risks for material developments. Those risks are not the only ones facing us. Our business is also subject to the risks that affect many other companies, such as employment relations, general economic conditions, geopolitical events and international operations. Further, additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may in the future materially and adversely affect our business, operations, liquidity and stock price.

Below, we are providing, in supplemental form, the material changes to our risk factors that occurred during the past quarter. Our risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report, on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, provide additional disclosure for these supplemental risks and are incorporated herein by reference.

Our sales depend on coverage and reimbursement from third-party payers, and pricing and reimbursement pressures may affect our profitability.

Sales of our products depend on the availability and extent of coverage and reimbursement from third-party payers, including government healthcare programs and private insurance plans. Governments and private payers continue to pursue aggressive initiatives to contain costs and manage drug utilization and are increasingly focused on the effectiveness, benefits and costs of similar treatments, which could result in lower reimbursement rates for our products or narrower populations for whom our products will be reimbursed by payers. Public scrutiny of the price of drugs and other healthcare costs is increasing and greater focus on pricing and price increases may limit our ability to set or increase the price of our products based on their value, which could have a material adverse effect on our product sales, business and results of operations.

A substantial portion of our U.S. business relies on reimbursement from U.S. federal government healthcare programs and private insurance plans regulated by the U.S. federal government. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, Part I, Item 1. Business—Reimbursement. Changes to U.S. federal reimbursement policy may come through legislative actions. Discussions continue around a number of potential legislative changes that could affect the reimbursement and/or pricing of our products, including proposals to allow the U.S. federal government to directly negotiate drug prices with pharmaceutical manufacturers and to require manufacturers to pay higher rebates in the Medicare Part D setting. Legislation has been introduced into the U.S. Congress for other proposals, including legislation designed to overhaul provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as well as to enable simpler re-importation of prescription medications from Canada or other countries. State government actions or ballot initiatives can also affect how our products are covered and reimbursed or create additional pressure on how our products are priced. Many states have discussed and debated and are considering new pricing legislation, including state proposals designed to require biopharmaceutical manufacturers to publicly report proprietary pricing information, limit price increases or to place a maximum price ceiling, or cap, on pharmaceutical products. For example, Ohio voters are expected to consider in their November 2017 election a ballot proposition that would prohibit the state from paying a greater price for drugs than the lowest price paid by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Passage of this proposition could lead to the introduction of additional ballot initiatives in other states. While we are unable to predict if these or other changes may ultimately be enacted, to the extent that future changes affect how our products are paid for and reimbursed by government and private payers in the United States our business could be adversely impacted. Changes in U.S. federal reimbursement policy may also arise as a result of regulations or demonstration projects implemented by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the federal agency responsible for administering Medicare, Medicaid and the Health Insurance Marketplaces. CMS has substantial power to quickly implement policy changes that can significantly affect how our products are covered and reimbursed. Further, CMS is undertaking other projects to test care models, such as the CMS Oncology Care Model (OCM) that provides participating physician practices with performance-based financial incentives that aim to manage or reduce Medicare costs while improving efficacy of care. We believe the OCM has impacted utilization of certain of our oncology products by participating physician practices and may continue to do so in the future. In addition, the timing of reimbursement policy decisions can affect our business. Legislative or regulatory changes in the United States or other federal or state government initiatives that decrease the coverage or reimbursement available for our products, require that we pay increased rebates, limit our ability to offer co-pay payment assistance to commercial patients, limit the pricing of pharmaceutical products or reduce the use of our U.S. products could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Payers, including healthcare insurers, Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) and group purchasing organizations, increasingly seek price discounts or rebates in connection with the placement of our products on their formularies or those they manage. Consolidation in the health insurance industry has resulted in a few large insurers and PBMs exerting greater pressure in pricing and usage negotiations with drug manufacturers, significantly increasing such discounts and rebates and limiting patient access and usage. Three PBMs currently oversee approximately 75% of total covered lives in the United States. Payers continue to adopt benefit plan changes that shift a greater portion of prescription costs to patients, and some payers may attempt to limit the use of programs assisting commercial patients with their co-payments. Payers also control costs by imposing restrictions on access to our products, such as by requiring prior authorizations or step therapy, and may choose to exclude certain indications for which our products are approved or even choose to exclude coverage entirely. For example, since the launch of Repatha^® in August 2015,

the application of utilization management criteria by some payers, including PBMs, has resulted in denials of coverage for a significant number of patients for whom Repatha^® has been prescribed, slowing Repatha^® sales. In March 2017, we presented data from our phase 3 outcomes study evaluating the ability of Repatha^® to prevent cardiovascular events, which met its primary composite endpoint and key secondary composite endpoint. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Significant developments. However, in the current competitive environment, the application of restrictive utilization management criteria by some payers may continue until the clinical data is reflected in approved product labeling, or even thereafter. Ultimately, further discounts, rebates, coverage or plan changes, restrictions or exclusions as described above could have a material adverse effect on sales of our affected products.

We also face risks relating to the reporting of pricing data that affects the reimbursement of and discounts provided for our products to U.S. government healthcare programs. Pricing data that we submit impacts the payment rates for providers, rebates we pay, and discounts we are required to provide under Medicare, Medicaid and other government drug programs. Government price reporting regulations are complex and may require a manufacturer to update certain previously submitted data. Our price reporting data calculations are reviewed monthly and quarterly, and based on such reviews we have on occasion restated previously reported pricing data to reflect changes in calculation methodology, reasonable assumptions and/or underlying data. If our submitted pricing data are incorrect, we may become subject to substantial fines and penalties or other government enforcement actions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. In addition, as a result of restating previously reported price data, we also may be required to pay additional rebates and provide additional discounts.

Outside the United States, we expect countries will continue to take aggressive actions to reduce their healthcare expenditures. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, Part I, Item 1. Business—Reimbursement. For example, international reference pricing (IRP) is widely used by a large number of countries to control costs based on an external benchmark of a product’s price in other countries. IRP policies can quickly and frequently change and may not reflect differences in the burden of disease, indications, market structures, or affordability differences across countries or regions. Any deterioration in the coverage and reimbursement available for our products or in the timeliness or certainty of payment by payers to physicians and other providers could negatively impact the ability or willingness of healthcare providers to prescribe our products for their patients or could otherwise negatively affect the use of our products or the prices we receive for them. Such changes could have a material adverse effect on our product sales, business and results of operations.

The adoption of new tax legislation or exposure to additional tax liabilities could affect our profitability.

We are subject to income and other taxes in the United States and other jurisdictions in which we do business. As a result, our provision for income taxes is derived from a combination of applicable tax rates in the various places we operate. Significant judgment is required for determining our provision for income tax.

Our tax returns are routinely examined by tax authorities in the United States and other jurisdictions in which we do business, and a number of audits are currently underway. Tax authorities are becoming more aggressive in their audits and are particularly focused on the allocations of income and expense among tax jurisdictions. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we received Notices of Proposed Adjustment from the IRS for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012. The significant proposed adjustments relate primarily to the allocation of profits between certain of our entities in the United States and the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico and allocate additional profits to the United States. On April 12, 2017, we received a Revenue Agent’s Report from the IRS for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012 that included the proposed adjustments. We disagree with the proposed adjustments and plan to initiate the administrative appeals process, which will likely not be concluded within the next 12 months. Final resolution of the IRS audit could have a material impact on our results of operations and cash flows if not resolved favorably. We believe our accrual for income tax liabilities is appropriate based on past experience, interpretations of tax law, and judgments about potential actions by tax authorities; however, due to the complexity of the provision for income taxes, the ultimate resolution of any tax matters may result in payments greater or less than amounts accrued. See Note 3, Income taxes, to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our provision for income taxes and results of operations in the future could be adversely affected by changes to our operating structure, changes in the mix of income and expenses in countries with differing tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in applicable tax laws, regulations or administrative interpretations thereof. President Trump has indicated that U.S. corporate tax reform is a high priority for his Administration, and he, as well as the U.S. Congress, have proposed sweeping changes to the U.S. tax system including changes to corporate tax rates and the taxation of income earned outside the United States (including the taxation of previously unrepatriated foreign earnings). A change to the U.S. tax system, a change to the tax system in a jurisdiction where we have significant operations, such as the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico, or a change in tax law in other jurisdictions where we do business, could have a material and adverse effect on our business and on the results of our operations.



Item 2.	UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we had one outstanding stock repurchase program and the repurchase activity was as follows:



	Total number of shares purchased	Average price paid per share		Total number of shares purchased as part of publicly announced program	Maximum dollar value that may yet be purchased under the program⁽¹⁾
January 1 - 31	1,556,065	$	154.43	1,556,065	$	3,835,384,785
