Goldman Sachs 47th Annual Global Healthcare Conference 2026 summary
9 Jun, 2026Financial performance and growth drivers
Achieved 6% year-over-year revenue growth and 5% non-GAAP EPS growth in Q1, with 16 products showing double-digit sales increases and 17 products annualizing at over $1 billion in sales.
Six key growth drivers—Repatha, EVENITY, TEZSPIRE, innovative oncology, rare disease, and biosimilars—accounted for 70% of Q1 product sales, growing 24% year-over-year.
IMDELLTRA and UPLIZNA are highlighted as major contributors, with IMDELLTRA now annualizing at over $1 billion in sales and UPLIZNA expanding in multiple indications.
Commercial execution and operational investments, including $300 million in Puerto Rico this year, support ongoing growth.
The company expects its growth drivers to offset losses of exclusivity and sustain performance through 2026 and beyond.
Pipeline and innovation
Advancing a robust phase III pipeline, including MariTide for obesity and diabetes, olpasiran for cardiovascular risk, dazodalibep for Sjögren's disease, and xaluritamig for prostate cancer.
MariTide is positioned as a potential new paradigm in obesity care, with extended dosing and broad phase III programs underway.
Ongoing expansion of indications for approved products, such as UPLIZNA in autoimmune hepatitis and TEZSPIRE in COPD.
Capital allocation prioritizes innovation, both internal and external, with significant investments in R&D and manufacturing scale-up.
Twelve phase III trials for MariTide and large-scale studies for other pipeline assets are planned or ongoing.
Tax and legal matters
Confident in tax reserves and legal position regarding the IRS dispute, with significant prior payments and deposits reducing potential cash exposure.
The 2010–2015 tax court decision is expected no earlier than the second half of this year, with a possible two-year timeline for resolution.
Ongoing tax matters do not constrain capital allocation or business development activities.
