Amgen had a strong first quarter with earnings per share of 5.15 dollars beating expectations of 4.73 dollars. Six key medicines grew sales by 24 percent year over year and now make up 70 percent of total sales. The obesity drug Meritide is advancing well in late-stage testing with new studies showing better tolerance when patients take it less frequently, potentially every eight to twelve weeks instead of weekly injections.

Guidance Amgen raised its 2026 outlook to revenue between 37.1 billion and 38.5 billion dollars, and earnings per share between 21.70 and 23.10 dollars. The company expects its fast-growing medicines like Repatha and Evenity to offset patent losses.
