Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other publicly available documents include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), and are subject to the safe harbor created thereby under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and generally can be identified by the use of words such as "may," "could," "aim," "seek," "believe," "will," "expect," "project," "estimate," "intend," "target," "anticipate," "plan," "continue," or similar expressions or future or conditional verbs.
Forward-looking statements inherently involve many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's current plans and expectations, expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, we can give no assurance that any expectation or belief will result or will be achieved or accomplished. Investors therefore should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The following include some but not all of the factors that could cause actual results or events to differ from those anticipated:
•the significant costs and uncertainties in the pharmaceutical research and development process, including with respect to the timing and process of obtaining regulatory approvals;
•the impact and uncertain outcome of acquisitions and business development transactions and related costs;
•intense competition affecting our products, pipeline, or industry;
•market uptake of launched products and indications;
•continued pricing pressures and the impact of actions of governmental and private payers affecting pricing of, reimbursement for, and patient access to pharmaceuticals, or reporting obligations related thereto;
•safety or efficacy concerns associated with our products;
•dependence on relatively few products or product classes for a significant percentage of our total revenue and an increasingly consolidated supply chain;
•the expiration of intellectual property protection for certain of our products and competition from generic and biosimilar products, and risks from the proliferation of counterfeit or illegally compounded products;
•our ability to protect and enforce patents and other intellectual property and changes in patent law or regulations related to data package exclusivity;
•information technology system inadequacies, inadequate controls or procedures, security breaches, or operating failures;
•unauthorized access, disclosure, misappropriation, or compromise of confidential information or other data stored in our information technology systems, networks, and facilities, or those of third parties with whom we share our data and violations of data protection laws or regulations;
•issues with product supply and regulatory approvals stemming from manufacturing difficulties, disruptions, or shortages, including as a result of unpredictability and variability in demand, labor shortages, third-party performance, quality, cyber-attacks, or regulatory actions related to our and third-party facilities;
•reliance on third-party relationships and outsourcing arrangements;
•the use of artificial intelligence or other emerging technologies in various facets of our operations which may exacerbate competitive, regulatory, litigation, cybersecurity, and other risks;
•the impact of global macroeconomic conditions, including uneven economic growth or downturns or uncertainty, trade disruptions, international tension, conflicts, regional dependencies, or other costs, uncertainties, and risks related to engaging in business globally;
•fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates or changes in interest rates and inflation;
•litigation, investigations, or other similar proceedings involving past, current, or future products or activities;
•changes in tax law and regulation, tax rates, or events that differ from our assumptions related to tax positions;
•regulatory changes and developments;
•regulatory actions regarding our operations and products;
•regulatory compliance problems or government investigations;
•actual or perceived deviation from environmental-, social-, or governance-related requirements or expectations;
•asset impairments and restructuring charges; and
•changes in accounting and reporting standards.
3
More information on factors that could cause our actual results or events to differ from those expressed in forward looking statements is included from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2023, particularly under Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors." Investors should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and should not consider the risks described above and under Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in or incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as is required by law, we expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly release any revisions to forward-looking statements to reflect events after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
(Tables present dollars in millions, except per-share data)
Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Implementation of New Financial Accounting Standards
We have prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and, therefore, they do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). In our opinion, the consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments (including those that are normal and recurring) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods shown. In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, we must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2023. We issued our financial statements by filing them with the Securities and Exchange Commission and have evaluated subsequent events up to the time of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
All per-share amounts, unless otherwise noted in the footnotes, are presented on a diluted basis; that is, based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of incremental shares from our stock-based compensation programs, if dilutive.
We operate as a single operating segment engaged in the discovery, development, manufacturing, marketing, and sales of pharmaceutical products worldwide. A global research and development organization and a supply chain organization are responsible for the discovery, development, manufacturing, and supply of our products. Regional commercial organizations market, distribute, and sell the products. The business is also supported by global corporate staff functions. Our determination that we operate as a single segment is consistent with the financial information regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker for purposes of evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting for future periods.
Implementation of New Financial Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, establishes incremental disaggregation of income tax disclosures pertaining to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires prospective application with the option to apply it retrospectively. We intend to adopt this standard in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this standard on our disclosures.
ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, requires disclosures about significant segment expenses and additional interim disclosure requirements. This standard also requires a single reportable segment to provide all disclosures required by Accounting Standards Codification Topic 280. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments should be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. We intend to adopt this standard in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2024. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this standard on our disclosures.

Note 2: Revenue
The following table summarizes our revenue recognized in our consolidated condensed statements of operations:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2024 2023 2024 2023
Net product revenue $ 10,571.6 $ 7,306.2 $ 28,723.0 $ 20,524.2
Collaboration and other revenue
867.5 2,192.4 2,786.9 4,246.5
Revenue $ 11,439.1 $ 9,498.6 $ 31,509.9 $ 24,770.7
We recognize revenue primarily from two different types of contracts, product sales to customers (net product revenue) and collaborations and other arrangements. Revenue recognized from collaborations and other arrangements includes our share of profits from the collaborations, as well as royalties, upfront and milestone payments we receive under these types of contracts. See Note 4 for additional information related to our collaborations and other arrangements. Collaboration and other revenue disclosed above includes the revenue from the Jardiance®and Trajenta®families of products resulting from our collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim, as well as from the 2023 sales of rights for the olanzapine portfolio, including Zyprexa®, and for Baqsimi®, all of which are discussed in Note 4. Substantially all of the remainder of collaboration and other revenue is related to contracts accounted for as contracts with customers. Collaboration and other revenue associated with intellectual property licensed in prior periods was not material during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Adjustments to Revenue
Adjustments to revenue recognized as a result of changes in estimates for our most significant United States (U.S.) sales returns, rebates, and discounts liability balances for products shipped in previous periods were 6 percent and 2 percent of U.S. revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 4 percent and less than 1 percent of U.S. revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Contract Liabilities
Our contract liabilities result from arrangements where we have received payment in advance of performance under the contract and do not include sales returns, rebates, and discounts. Changes in contract liabilities are generally due to either receipt of additional advance payments or our performance under the contract.
The following table summarizes contract liability balances:

Note 3: Acquisitions
We engage in various forms of business development activities to enhance or refine our product pipeline, including acquisitions, collaborations, investments, and licensing arrangements. In connection with these arrangements, our partners may be entitled to future royalties and/or commercial milestones based on sales should products be approved for commercialization and/or milestones based on the successful progress of compounds through the development process. We account for each arrangement as either a business combination or an asset acquisition in accordance with GAAP.
Business Combination
When an acquisition met the definition of a business under GAAP, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date in our consolidated condensed financial statements. The determination of estimated fair value required management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets was recorded as goodwill. The results of operations of the acquisition are included in our consolidated condensed financial statements from the date of acquisition.
Manufacturing Facility Acquisition
Overview of Transaction
In May 2024, we acquired all outstanding membership interests of NexPharm Parent HoldCo, LLC and Isopro Holdings, LLC, which together own the assets of a manufacturing site in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin, for a purchase price of $924.7 million, net of cash acquired. The facility is intended to further expand our global parenteral (injectable) product manufacturing network.
15
Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed
Our access to information was limited prior to this acquisition. As a consequence, we are in the process of determining fair values and tax bases of the assets acquired. The final determination of these amounts will be completed as soon as possible but no later than one year from the acquisition date. The final determination may result in asset and liability fair values and tax bases that differ from the preliminary estimates and require changes to the preliminary amounts recognized.
The following table summarizes the preliminary amounts recognized for assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:
Estimated Fair Value at May 23, 2024
Cash $ 2.3
Goodwill(1)
816.5
Property and equipment 108.5
Other assets and liabilities, net (0.3)
Acquisition date fair value of consideration transferred 927.0
Less:
Cash acquired (2.3)
Cash paid, net of cash acquired $ 924.7
(1) The goodwill recognized from this acquisition is primarily attributable to the synergies between the manufacturing capabilities of the site and our products as well as the assembled workforce of the site, which is deductible for tax purposes.
The results of operations attributable to this acquisition for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were not material.
Pro forma information has not been included as this acquisition did not have a material impact on our consolidated condensed statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.
POINT Acquisition
Overview of Transaction
In December 2023, we acquired all shares of POINT Biopharma Global Inc. (POINT) for a purchase price of $12.50 per share in cash (or an aggregate of $1.04 billion, net of cash acquired). POINT has capabilities in radiopharmaceutical discovery, development, and manufacturing efforts, as well as clinical and pre-clinical radioligand therapies in development for the treatment of cancer.
Acquired and Liabilities Assumed
Our access to POINT information was limited prior to the acquisition. As a consequence, we are in the process of determining fair values and tax bases of a significant portion of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the identification and valuation of intangible assets and tax exposures. The final determination of these amounts will be completed as soon as possible but no later than one year from the acquisition date. The final determination may result in asset and liability fair values and tax bases that differ from the preliminary estimates and require changes to the preliminary amounts recognized.
The following table summarizes the preliminary amounts recognized for assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:
Estimated Fair Value at December 27, 2023
Cash $ 302.7
Acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D)

Other assets and liabilities, net (19.3)
Acquisition date fair value of consideration transferred 1,338.5
Less:
Cash acquired (302.7)
Cash paid, net of cash acquired $ 1,035.8
(1) The goodwill recognized from this acquisition is primarily attributable to the radiopharmaceutical discovery, development, and manufacturing capabilities and the assembled workforce for POINT, which is not deductible for tax purposes.
16
The results of operations attributable to POINT for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were not material.
Pro forma information has not been included as this acquisition did not have a material impact on our consolidated condensed statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Asset Acquisitions
Upon each asset acquisition, the cost allocated to acquired IPR&D was immediately expensed as acquired IPR&D if the compound had no alternative future use. Milestone payment obligations incurred prior to regulatory approval of the compound were expensed as acquired IPR&D when the event triggering an obligation to pay the milestone occurred. We recognized acquired IPR&D charges of $2.83 billion and $3.09 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $2.98 billion and $3.18 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The following table summarizes our significant acquired IPR&D charges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:
Counterparty Compound(s), Therapy or Asset Acquisition Month

(1) The phase of development presented is as of the date of the arrangement and represents the phase of development of the most advanced asset acquired, where applicable.
(2) In 2024, we discontinued development of this molecule in favor of another molecule in development.
Note 4: Collaborations and Other Arrangements
We often enter into collaborative and other arrangements to develop and commercialize drug candidates or to sell the rights of a product. See Note 2 for a discussion of our recognition of revenue from our collaborations and other arrangements.
Collaborative activities may include research and development, marketing and selling, manufacturing, and distribution for which we may receive from or pay to the collaboration partner expense reimbursements. Operating expenses for costs incurred pursuant to these arrangements are reported in their respective expense line item, net of any payments due to or reimbursements due from our collaboration partners, with such reimbursements being recognized at the time the party becomes obligated to pay. Each arrangement is unique in nature, and our more significant arrangements are discussed below.
Boehringer Ingelheim Collaboration
We and Boehringer Ingelheim have a global agreement to jointly develop and commercialize a portfolio of compounds. Currently included in the collaboration are Boehringer Ingelheim's products: Jardiance, Glyxambi, Synjardy, Trijardy XR, Trajenta, and Jentadueto®as well as our products: Basaglar and Rezvoglar. Glyxambi, Synjardy, and Trijardy XR are included in the Jardiance product family. Jentadueto is included in the Trajenta product family. Rezvoglar is included in the Basaglar product family.
In connection with the regulatory approvals of Jardiance, Trajenta, and Basaglar in the U.S., Europe, and Japan, milestone payments made for Jardiance and Trajenta were capitalized as intangible assets and are being amortized to cost of sales, and milestone payments received for Basaglar were recorded as contract liabilities and are being amortized to collaboration and other revenue. Net milestones capitalized with respect to Jardiance and Trajenta and net milestones deferred with respect to Basaglar are not material.
17
For the Jardiance product family, we and Boehringer Ingelheim generally share equally the ongoing development and commercialization costs in the most significant markets, and we record our portion of the development and commercialization costs as research and development expense and marketing, selling, and administrative expense, respectively. We receive a royalty on net sales of Boehringer Ingelheim's products in the most significant markets and recognize the royalty as collaboration and other revenue. Boehringer Ingelheim is entitled to potential performance payments depending on the net sales of the Jardiance product family; therefore, our reported revenue for Jardiance may be reduced by any potential performance payments we make related to this product family. The royalty received by us related to the Jardiance product family may also be increased or decreased depending on whether net sales for this product family exceed or fall below certain thresholds. We pay to Boehringer Ingelheim a royalty on net sales for the Basaglar product family in the U.S. We record our sales of the Basaglar product family to third parties as net product revenue with the royalty payments made to Boehringer Ingelheim recorded as cost of sales. The following table summarizes our revenue recognized:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2024 2023 2024 2023
Jardiance $ 686.4 $ 700.8 $ 2,142.5 $ 1,946.6

Incyte has the right to receive tiered, double digit royalty payments on worldwide net sales with rates ranging up to 20 percent. Incyte has the right to receive an additional royalty ranging up to the low teens on worldwide net sales for the treatment of COVID-19 that exceed a specified aggregate worldwide net sales threshold. The agreement calls for payments by us to Incyte associated with certain development, success-based regulatory, and sales-based milestones.
In connection with the regulatory approvals of Olumiant in the U.S., Europe, and Japan, as well as achievement of a sales-based milestone, milestone payments were capitalized as intangible assets and are being amortized to cost of sales through the term of the collaboration. Net milestones capitalized are not material. As of September 30, 2024, Incyte is eligible to receive up to $100.0 million of additional payments from us in potential sales-based milestones.
We record our sales of Olumiant to third parties as net product revenue with the royalty payments made to Incyte recorded as cost of sales. The following table summarizes our net product revenue recognized:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2024 2023 2024 2023

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, milestone payments to Chugai were not material.
Olanzapine Portfolio (including Zyprexa)
In July 2023, we sold the rights for the olanzapine portfolio, including Zyprexa, to Cheplapharm Arzneimittel GmbH (Cheplapharm), a European company. Under the terms of the agreement, we received $1.05 billion in cash upon closing and an additional $305.0 million in cash upon the one-year anniversary of closing. We included both in the transaction price as of September 30, 2023.
We entered into a supply agreement with Cheplapharm that obligates Cheplapharm to purchase Zyprexa product we are manufacturing at an amount which represents a standalone selling price. As the product we are manufacturing under this supply agreement has no alternative use to us and we have right to payment, we recognize net product revenue over time as we manufacture the product.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized $1.42 billion in revenue primarily related to the net gain on the sale of rights for the olanzapine portfolio.
Baqsimi

Note 7: Financial Instruments
Investments in Equity and Debt Securities
Our equity investments are accounted for using three different methods depending on the type of equity investment:
•Investments in companies over which we have significant influence but not a controlling interest are accounted for using the equity method, with our share of earnings or losses reported in other-net, (income) expense.
•For equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values, we measure these investments at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. Any change in recorded value is recorded in other-net, (income) expense.
•Our public equity investments are measured and carried at fair value. Any change in fair value is recognized in other-net, (income) expense.
We adjust our equity investments without readily determinable fair values based upon changes in the equity instruments' values resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. Downward adjustments resulting from an impairment are recorded based upon impairment considerations, including the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, general market conditions, and industry specific factors. Adjustments recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were not material.
The net gains (losses) recognized in our consolidated condensed statements of operations for equity securities were $112.4 million and $(29.5) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $(62.9) million and $(141.5) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The net gains (losses) recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 on equity securities sold during the respective periods were not material.
As of September 30, 2024, we had approximately $925 million of unfunded commitments to invest in venture capital funds, which we anticipate will be paid over a period of up to 10 years.

We record our available-for-sale debt securities at fair value, with changes in fair value reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). We periodically assess our investment in available-for-sale securities for impairment losses and credit losses. The amount of credit losses is determined by comparing the difference between the present value of future cash flows expected to be collected on these securities and the amortized cost. Factors considered in assessing credit losses include the position in the capital structure, vintage and amount of collateral, delinquency rates, current credit support, and geographic concentration. Impairment and credit losses related to available-for-sale securities were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
The table below summarizes the contractual maturities of our investments in debt securities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2024:
Maturities by Period
Total Less Than
1 Year 		1-5
Years 		6-10
Years 		More Than
10 Years
Fair value of debt securities $ 685.2 $ 105.9 $ 185.1 $ 100.8 $ 293.4
A summary of the amount of unrealized gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive loss and the fair value of available-for-sale securities in an unrealized gain or loss position follows:
September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023
Unrealized gross gains $ 7.2 $ 3.4
Unrealized gross losses 29.2 37.9
Fair value of securities in an unrealized gain position 278.0 159.2
Fair value of securities in an unrealized loss position 367.6 452.0
As of September 30, 2024, the available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position include primarily fixed-rate debt securities of varying maturities, which are sensitive to changes in the yield curve and other market conditions. Substantially all of the fixed-rate debt securities in a loss position are investment-grade debt securities. As of September 30, 2024, we do not intend to sell, and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell, the securities in a loss position before the market values recover or the underlying cash flows have been received, and there is no indication of a material default on interest or principal payments for our debt securities.
Realized gains and losses on sales of available-for-sale investments are computed based upon specific identification of the initial cost adjusted for any other-than-temporary declines in fair value that were recorded in earnings and were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Proceeds from sales of available-for-sale investments were $23.2 million and $68.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $60.0 million and $121.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

We determine our Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements based on a market approach using quoted market values, significant other observable inputs for identical or comparable assets or liabilities, or discounted cash flow analyses. Level 3 fair value measurements for other investment securities are determined using unobservable inputs, including the investments' cost adjusted for impairments and price changes from orderly transactions. Fair values are not readily available for certain equity investments measured under the measurement alternative.
Debt
In August 2024, we issued $750.0 million of 4.150 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2027, $1.00 billion of 4.200 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2029, $1.25 billion of 4.600 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2034, $1.25 billion of 5.050 percent fixed rate notes due in 2054, and $750.0 million of 5.200 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2064, all with interest to be paid semi-annually. We used a portion of the net cash proceeds from the offering of $4.96 billion to fund the acquisition of Morphic and related fees and expenses, with any remaining funds used for general business purposes, including the repayment of outstanding commercial paper.
In February 2024, we issued $1.00 billion of 4.500 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2027, $1.00 billion of 4.500 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2029, $1.50 billion of 4.700 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2034, $1.50 billion of 5.000 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2054, and $1.50 billion of 5.100 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2064, all with interest to be paid semi-annually. We used, or may be using, the net cash proceeds from the offering of $6.45 billion for general business purposes, including the repayment of outstanding commercial paper, repayment of current maturities of long-term debt, and repayment of the $750.0 million of 5.000 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2026.
In February 2023, we issued $750.0 million of 5.000 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2026, $1.00 billion of 4.700 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2033, $1.25 billion of 4.875 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2053, and $1.00 billion of 4.950 percent fixed-rate notes due in 2063, all with interest to be paid semi-annually. We used the net cash proceeds from the offering of $3.96 billion for general business purposes, including the repayment of outstanding commercial paper.
In September 2024, we renewed our 364-day credit facility and increased capacity to $5.00 billion, which will expire in September 2025 and is available to support our commercial paper program. We have not drawn against the $5.00 billion 364-day facility as of September 30, 2024.
In September 2024, we extended our $3.00 billion multi-year credit facility, which will now expire in December 2028 and is available to support our commercial paper program. We have not drawn against the $3.00 billion multi-year facility as of September 30, 2024.

Risk Management and Related Financial Instruments
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk consist principally of trade receivables and interest-bearing investments. Wholesale distributors of life science products account for a substantial portion of our trade receivables; collateral is generally not required. We seek to mitigate the risk associated with this concentration through our ongoing credit-review procedures and insurance. The majority of our cash is held by a few major financial institutions that have been identified as Global Systemically Important Banks (G-SIBs) by the Financial Stability Board. G-SIBs are subject to rigorous regulatory testing and oversight and must meet certain capital requirements. We monitor our exposures with these institutions and do not expect any of these institutions to fail to meet their obligations. In accordance with documented corporate risk-management policies, we monitor the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution or corporate issuer based on credit rating of our counterparty. We are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to risk-management instruments but do not expect significant counterparties to fail to meet their obligations given their investment grade credit ratings.
We have entered into accounts receivable factoring agreements with financial institutions to sell certain of our non-U.S. accounts receivable. These transactions are accounted for as sales and result in a reduction in accounts receivable because the agreements transfer effective control over, and risk related to, the receivables to the buyers. We derecognized $419.2 million and $431.9 million of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, under these factoring arrangements. The costs of factoring such accounts receivable as well as estimated credit losses were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Our derivative activities are initiated within the guidelines of documented corporate risk-management policies and are intended to offset losses and gains on the assets, liabilities, and transactions being hedged. Management reviews the correlation and effectiveness of our derivatives on a quarterly basis.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the derivative instrument is marked to market, with gains and losses recognized currently in income to offset the respective losses and gains recognized on the underlying exposure. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, gains and losses are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (see Note 11) and reclassified into earnings in the same period the hedged transaction affects earnings. For derivative and non-derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as net investment hedges, the foreign currency translation gains or losses due to spot rate fluctuations are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (see Note 11). Derivative contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments are recorded at fair value with the gain or loss recognized in earnings during the period of change.
We may enter into foreign currency forward or option contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuating currency exchange rates (primarily the euro, Chinese yuan, and Japanese yen). Foreign currency derivatives used for hedging are put in place using the same or like currencies and duration as the underlying exposures. Forward and option contracts are principally used to manage exposures arising from subsidiary trade and loan payables and receivables denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts are recorded at fair value with the gain or loss recognized in other-net, (income) expense. Forward contracts generally have maturities not exceeding 12 months. At September 30, 2024, we had outstanding foreign currency forward commitments as follows, all of which have settlement dates within 180 days:
September 30, 2024
Purchase Sell
Currency Amount
(in millions) 		Currency Amount
(in millions)
Euro 5,325.1 U.S. dollars 5,955.9
U.S. dollars 1,945.4 Euro 1,744.4
U.S. dollars 521.1 Japanese yen 73,217.3
British pounds 128.8 U.S. dollars 170.4
24
Foreign currency exchange risk is also managed through the use of foreign currency debt, cross-currency interest rate swaps, and foreign currency forward contracts. Our foreign currency-denominated notes had carrying amounts of $6.50 billion and $7.14 billion as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, of which $5.75 billion and $5.67 billion have been designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of net investments in certain of our foreign operations as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. At September 30, 2024, we had outstanding cross-currency swaps with notional amounts of $728.6 million swapping U.S. dollars to euro and $402.3 million swapping Swiss francs to U.S. dollars which have settlement dates ranging through 2028. Our cross-currency interest rate swaps, for which a significant amount convert a portion of our U.S. dollar-denominated fixed-rate debt to foreign-denominated fixed-rate debt, have also been designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of net investments. At September 30, 2024, we had outstanding foreign currency forward contracts to sell 4.30 billion euro and to sell 3.20 billion Chinese yuan with settlement dates ranging through 2025, which have been designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of net investments.
In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates which can vary the costs of financing, investing, and operating. We seek to address a portion of these risks through a controlled program of risk management that includes the use of derivative financial instruments. The objective of controlling these risks is to limit the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on earnings. Our primary interest-rate risk exposure results from changes in short-term U.S. dollar interest rates. In an effort to manage interest-rate exposures, we strive to achieve an acceptable balance between fixed- and floating-rate debt and investment positions and may enter into interest rate swaps or collars to help maintain that balance.
Interest rate swaps or collars that convert our fixed-rate debt to a floating rate are designated as fair value hedges of the underlying instruments. Interest rate swaps or collars that convert floating-rate debt to a fixed rate are designated as cash flow hedges. Interest expense on the debt is adjusted to include the payments made or received under the swap agreements. Cash proceeds from or payments to counterparties resulting from the termination of interest rate swaps are classified as operating activities in our consolidated condensed statements of cash flows. At September 30, 2024, all of our total long-term debt is at a fixed rate. We have converted approximately 5 percent of our long-term fixed-rate notes to floating rates through the use of interest rate swaps.
We also may enter into forward-starting interest rate swaps and treasury locks, which we designate as cash flow hedges, as part of any anticipated future debt issuances in order to reduce the risk of cash flow volatility from future changes in interest rates. The change in fair value of these instruments is recorded as part of other comprehensive income (loss) (see Note 11) and, upon completion of a debt issuance and termination of the instrument, is amortized to interest expense over the life of the underlying debt. Cash proceeds or payments from the termination of these instruments are classified as operating activities in our consolidated condensed statements of cash flows.
The Effect of Risk-Management Instruments on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations
The following effects of risk-management instruments were recognized in other-net, (income) expense:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2024 2023 2024 2023
Fair value hedges:
Effect from hedged fixed-rate debt $ 48.0 $ (29.9) $ 29.0 $ (29.0)
Effect from interest rate contracts (48.0) 29.9 (29.0) 29.0
Cash flow hedges:
Effective portion of losses on interest rate contracts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss 1.4 3.2 5.8 10.3
Cross-currency interest rate swaps (28.8) 24.7 58.5 (5.3)
Net (gains) losses on foreign currency exchange contracts not designated as hedging instruments (0.2) 201.0 33.8 177.8
Total $ (27.6) $ 228.9 $ 98.1 $ 182.8
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the amortization of losses related to the portion of our risk management hedging instruments, fair value hedges, and cash flow hedges that was excluded from the assessment of effectiveness was not material.
25
The Effect of Risk-Management Instruments on Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The effective portion of risk-management instruments that was recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) is as follows:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2024 2023 2024 2023
Net investment hedges:
Foreign currency-denominated notes $ (250.2) $ 183.5 $ (76.3) $ 62.3
Cross-currency interest rate swaps (26.0) 28.6 (6.8) 9.0
Foreign currency forward contracts (304.1) 217.7 (172.3) 199.3
Cash flow hedges:
Forward-starting interest rate swaps (23.6) 84.3 53.8 141.4
Cross-currency interest rate swaps (7.9) 16.4 7.7 30.5
During the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify $4.3 million of pretax net losses on cash flow hedges from accumulated other comprehensive loss to other-net, (income) expense. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) were not material.

Risk-management instruments above are disclosed on a gross basis. There are various rights of setoff associated with certain of the risk-management instruments above that are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements. Although various rights of setoff and master netting arrangements or similar agreements may exist with the individual counterparties to the risk-management instruments above, individually, these financial rights are not material.
Contingent consideration liabilities relate to our liabilities arising in connection with the contingent value rights (CVRs) issued as a result of acquisitions of businesses. The fair values of the CVR liabilities were estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis and Level 3 inputs, including projections representative of a market participant's view of the expected cash payments associated with the agreed upon regulatory milestones based on probabilities of technical success, timing of the potential milestone events for the compounds, and estimated discount rates.
Note 8: Income Taxes
The effective tax rates were 38.9 percent and 19.1 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and 113.4 percent and 24.6 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, primarily driven by unfavorable tax impacts of non-deductible acquired IPR&D charges, with a larger impact occurring in 2023.
The U.S. examination of tax years 2016-2018 began in 2019 and remains ongoing. The Internal Revenue Service commenced its examination of tax years 2019-2021 during the third quarter of 2023. The resolution of both audit periods will likely extend beyond the next 12 months.

Note 10: Contingencies
We are involved in various lawsuits, claims, government investigations and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These claims or proceedings can involve various types of parties, including governments, regulatory agencies, competitors, customers, suppliers, service providers, licensees, employees, or shareholders, among others. These matters may involve patent infringement, antitrust, securities, pricing, access, sales and marketing practices, environmental, commercial, contractual rights, licensing obligations, health and safety matters, consumer fraud, employment matters, product liability, insurance coverage, and regulatory compliance, among others. The resolution of these matters often develops over a long period of time and expectations can change as a result of new findings, rulings, appeals or settlement arrangements. Legal proceedings that are significant or that we believe could become significant or material are described below.
We are defending against the legal proceedings in which we are named as defendants vigorously. It is not possible to determine the final outcome of these matters, and, unless otherwise noted, we cannot reasonably estimate the maximum potential exposure or the range of possible loss in excess of amounts accrued for any of these matters; however, we believe that the resolution of all such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or liquidity, but could possibly be material to our consolidated results of operations in any one accounting period.
Litigation accruals and environmental liabilities and the related estimated insurance recoverables are reflected on a gross basis as liabilities and assets, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets. With respect to the product liability claims currently asserted against us, we have accrued for our estimated exposures to the extent they are both probable and reasonably estimable based on the information available to us. We accrue for certain product liability claims incurred but not filed to the extent we can formulate a reasonable estimate of their costs. We estimate these expenses based primarily on historical claims experience and data regarding product usage. Legal defense costs expected to be incurred in connection with significant product liability loss contingencies are accrued when both probable and reasonably estimable.
Because of the nature of pharmaceutical products, it is possible that we could become subject to large numbers of additional product liability and related claims in the future. Due to a very restrictive market for litigation liability insurance, we are self-insured for litigation liability losses for all our currently and previously marketed products.

Patent Litigation
Emgality Patent Litigation
We area named defendant in litigation filed by Teva Pharmaceuticals International GMBH and Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (collectively, Teva) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts seeking a ruling that various claims in three different Teva patents are infringed by our launch and continued sales of Emgality for the prevention of migraine in adults.
Following a trial, in November 2022, a jury returned a verdict in favor of Teva. In September 2023, the court granted our motion to overrule the jury verdict and found all asserted claims of the three patents invalid. Teva has appealed the decision. This matter is ongoing.
Environmental Proceedings
Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, commonly known as "Superfund," we have been designated as one of several potentially responsible parties with respect to the cleanup of fewer than 10 sites. Under Superfund, each responsible party may be jointly and severally liable for the entire amount of the cleanup.
Other Matters
Actos®Litigation
We, along with Takeda Chemical Industries, Ltd. and Takeda affiliates (collectively, Takeda), are named in a third party payer class action in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiffs claim that they and similarly situated class members are entitled to recover money paid for or to reimburse Actos prescriptions because of alleged concealment of bladder cancer risk. Our agreement with Takeda calls for Takeda to defend and indemnify us against our losses and expenses with respect to U.S. litigation arising out of the manufacture, use, or sale of Actos and other related expenses in accordance with the terms of the agreement. In August 2023, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit granted our and Takeda's petition for permission to appeal the class certification order, the appeal has been fully briefed, and oral argument is scheduled for November 2024. This matter is ongoing.
Mounjaro and Trulicity Product Liability Litigation
Since August 2023, we, along with Novo Nordisk A/S (Novo) and other related Novo entities, have been named in numerous lawsuits by plaintiffs alleging injuries following purported use of incretin medicines. Certain complaints name us and allege injuries that plaintiffs claim are associated with the use of Mounjaro and/or Trulicity. Lawsuits in U.S. federal courts have generally been coordinated and/or consolidated for pretrial proceedings in a federal multidistrict litigation pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. There are also cases pending in various U.S. state courts, as well as a class action petition filed in Israel. These matters are ongoing.
340B Litigation and Investigations
We are the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed in January 2021 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Secretary of HHS, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), and the Administrator of HRSA. The lawsuit challenges HHS's December 30, 2020 advisory opinion stating that drug manufacturers are required to deliver discounts under the 340B program to all contract pharmacies and HHS's Administrative Dispute Resolution (ADR) regulations. We seek a declaratory judgment that the defendants violated the Administrative Procedure Act and the U.S. Constitution, a preliminary injunction enjoining implementation of the ADR process created by defendants and, with it, their application of the advisory opinion, and other related relief. In March 2021, the court entered an order preliminarily enjoining the government's enforcement of the ADR process against us. In May 2021, HRSA sent us an enforcement letter notifying us that it determined that our policy was contrary to the 340B statute. In response, in May 2021, we amended our complaint to bring claims related to HRSA's determination. In June 2021, the defendants withdrew the HHS December 30, 2020 advisory opinion. In July 2021, the court held oral argument on the parties' cross motions for summary judgment and the defendants' motion to dismiss. In October 2021, the court denied the defendants' motion to dismiss, and granted in part and denied in part the parties' cross motions for summary judgment. Both parties filed notices of appeal related to the court's summary judgment order. In October 2022, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit held oral argument. This matter is ongoing.

We, along with other pharmaceutical manufacturers, have been named as a defendant in ADR petitions filed in 2021, 2023, and 2024 that are being held in abeyance as to us. Petitioners seek declaratory, injunctive, and/or monetary relief related to the 340B program. As described above, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana has entered a preliminary injunction enjoining the government's enforcement of the administrative dispute resolution process against us. HHS has now promulgated a revised regulation governing ADR proceedings, which took effect in June 2024 and may lead to the resumption of ADR proceedings against us.
In July 2021, we, along with Sanofi-Aventis U.S., LLC (Sanofi), Novo Nordisk Inc. (Novo Nordisk), and AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals LP (AstraZeneca), were named as a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York by Mosaic Health, Inc. alleging antitrust and unjust enrichment claims related to the defendants' 340B distribution programs. We, with Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, and AstraZeneca, filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, which was granted in September 2022. In January 2024, the court dismissed the case. Plaintiffs have appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. This matter is ongoing.
We received a civil investigative subpoena in February 2021 from the Office of the Attorney General for the State of Vermont relating to the sale of pharmaceutical products to Vermont covered entities under the 340B program. We are cooperating with this subpoena.
Branchburg Manufacturing Facility
In May 2021, we received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice requesting the production of certain documents relating to our manufacturing site in Branchburg, New Jersey. We are cooperating with the subpoena.
Brazil Litigation - Cosmopolis Facility
Labor Attorney Litigation
First initiated in 2008, Eli Lilly do Brasil Limitada (Lilly Brasil) is named in a Public Civil Action brought by the Labor Public Attorney (LPA) alleging harm to employees and former employees caused by alleged exposure to soil and groundwater contaminants at a former manufacturing facility in Cosmopolis, operated by the company between 1977 and 2003. In May 2014, the trial Court ruled against Lilly Brasil, ordering it to undertake several remedial and compensatory actions, including health coverage for a class of individuals and certain of their children. In July 2018, the appeals court generally affirmed the trial Court's ruling, which included a liquidated award of 300 million Brazilian reais, which, when adjusted for inflation, is approximately 1.36 billion Brazilian reais (approximately $250 million as of September 30, 2024). In August 2019, Lilly Brasil appealed to the superior labor court (TST) and in June 2021, the majority of the elements of Lilly Brasil's appeal were admitted; elements not proceeding are subject to an interlocutory appeal to the TST that was filed in June 2021. Mediation hearings are ongoing.
In July 2019, at the LPA's request, the trial Court ordered a freeze of Lilly Brasil's immovable property in the amount of 500 million Brazilian reais, which was reduced on Lilly Brasil's appeal and, when adjusted for inflation, is approximately 141 million Brazilian reais (approximately $26 million as of September 30, 2024). The parties appealed to the TST, which appeal is under review. The trial Court is currently assessing the status of Lilly Brasil's compliance with the obligations as to the land and an inspection in the industrial plant occurred in October 2023. These matters are ongoing.
Individual Former Employee Litigation
Lilly Brasil is also named in various pending lawsuits filed in the trial Court by individual former employees making related claims. These individual lawsuits are at various stages in the litigation process.
Puerto Rico Tax Matter
In May 2013, the Municipality of Carolina in Puerto Rico (Municipality) filed a lawsuit against us alleging noncompliance with respect to a contract with the Municipality and seeking a declaratory judgment. In December 2020, the Puerto Rico Appellate Court (AP) reversed the summary judgment previously granted by the Court of First Instance (CFI) in our favor dismissing the Municipality's complaint in its entirety. The AP remanded the case to the CFI for trial on the merits. The trial began in May 2022; however, the Municipality filed a new motion requesting the CFI to execute an alleged judgment. The request was denied by the CFI in our favor and the Municipality filed for revision at the AP, which we opposed, staying the case. The AP denied the Municipality's motion for revision. Trial resumed in October 2024 and this matter is ongoing.

Average Manufacturer Price Litigation
In November 2014, we, along with another pharmaceutical manufacturer, were named as co-defendants in United States et al. ex rel. Streck v. Takeda Pharm. Am., Inc., et al., which was unsealed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The complaint alleges that the defendants should have treated certain credits from distributors as retroactive price increases and included such increases in calculating average manufacturer prices. Following a trial in August 2022, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff. Lilly appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit which was heard and we await a decision.
Health Choice Alliance
We were named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed in Texas state court in October 2019 seeking damages under the Texas Medicaid Fraud Prevention Act for certain patient support programs related to our products Humalog, Humulin, and Forteo. The action has been stayed since 2020.
Pricing Matters
Pricing Litigation
We, along with Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, and, in some matters, certain pharmacy benefit managers, have been named in numerous lawsuits, including putative class actions, by states and state attorneys general, counties, municipalities, third-party payers, consumers, and other parties related to the pricing of insulin and certain other products and rebates paid by manufacturers to pharmacy benefit managers. These lawsuits assert various theories, including consumer protection, unfair and deceptive trade practices, fraud, false advertising, unjust enrichment, civil conspiracy, federal and state RICO, antitrust, and unfair competition claims. These lawsuits have been brought in various state and federal courts since 2017 and are at various stages in the litigation process. The cases pending in federal court have generally been coordinated and/or consolidated for pretrial proceedings in a federal multidistrict litigation pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The defendants have filed motions to dismiss an initial set of State attorney general and self-funded payer complaints, which are awaiting the Court's decision. In May 2023, we reached a settlement in the consumer class action. In January 2024, the Multi-District Litigation court denied the consumer class plaintiffs' motion for class certification. We and the consumer class plaintiffs subsequently terminated our settlement agreement and stipulated that the denial of class certification applies to Lilly. These matters are ongoing.
Pricing Investigations and Similar Matters
We have been subject to various investigations and received subpoenas, civil investigative demand requests, information requests, interrogatories, and other inquiries from various governmental entities related to pricing issues, including the pricing and sale of insulins and other products and calculations of average manufacturer price and best price. These include subpoenas from the Vermont Attorney General Office, civil investigative demands from the Washington, New Mexico, Colorado, Louisiana, Texas, Indiana and Oregon Attorney General Offices, the U.S. Department of Justice, and the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, as well as information requests from the Mississippi, Washington D.C., California, Florida, Hawaii, and Nevada Attorney General Offices.
To the extent the foregoing governmental entities have not filed lawsuits, we are cooperating with the foregoing investigations, subpoenas, and inquiries.
In January 2022, the Michigan Attorney General filed a petition in Michigan state court seeking authorization to investigate Lilly for potential violations of the Michigan Consumer Protection Act (MCPA), and a complaint seeking a declaratory judgment that the Attorney General has authority to investigate Lilly's sale of insulin under the MCPA. The court authorized the proposed investigation and the issuance of civil investigative subpoenas. In April 2022, the parties entered into a stipulation providing that the State of Michigan will not issue any civil investigative subpoena to us under the MCPA until the declaratory judgment action is resolved. In July 2022, the court dismissed the case in its entirety. In June 2023, the Michigan Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment in our favor. In August 2023, the Michigan Attorney General filed an application for leave to appeal to the Michigan Supreme Court, and oral argument was held in October 2024. This matter is ongoing.
31
Research Corporation Technologies, Inc.
In April 2016, we were named as a defendant in litigation filed by Research Corporation Technologies, Inc. (RCT) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona. The complaint seeks damages for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and conversion related to processes used to manufacture certain products, including Humalog and Humulin. In October 2021, the court issued a summary judgment decision in favor of RCT on certain issues, including with respect to a disputed royalty. In July 2024, we reached a confidential agreement with RCT that requires different payments based on various litigation outcomes as determined on appeal. Pursuant to this agreement, the court entered final judgment, Lilly filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, and Lilly made an initial payment under the agreement. The remaining amount payable under the agreement, if any, should not have a material impact on our financial position, liquidity or results of operations. The settlement agreement is not an admission of liability or fault by us, and is subject to conditions. This matter is ongoing.

The tax effects on the net activity related to each component of other comprehensive income (loss) were as follows:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
Tax benefit (expense) 2024 2023 2024 2023
Foreign currency translation gains/losses $ 121.9 $ (90.3) $ 53.7 $ (50.2)
Net unrealized gains/losses on available-for-sale securities (5.0) 3.5 (3.0) 2.5
Defined benefit pension and retiree health benefit plans (1.0) (6.9) (1.5) (13.9)

Benefit (expense) for income taxes allocated to other comprehensive income (loss) items $ 122.3 $ (115.3) $ 36.1 $ (99.1)
Except for the tax effects of foreign currency translation gains and losses related to our foreign currency-denominated notes, cross-currency interest rate swaps, and other foreign currency exchange contracts designated as net investment hedges (see Note 7), income taxes were not provided for foreign currency translation. Generally, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rate. For those operations, changes in exchange rates generally do not affect cash flows; therefore, resulting translation adjustments are made in shareholders' equity rather than in the consolidated condensed statements of operations.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition
(Tables present dollars in millions, except per-share data)
General
Management's discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition is intended to assist the reader in understanding and assessing significant changes and trends related to our results of operations and financial position. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying footnotes in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Certain statements in this Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements. Various risks and uncertainties, including those discussed in "Forward-Looking Statements" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2023, may cause our actual results, financial position, and cash generated from operations to differ from these forward-looking statements.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
This section provides an overview of our financial results, late-stage pipeline developments, and other matters affecting our company and industry.
Financial Results
The following table summarizes certain financial information:
Three Months Ended September 30, Percent Change Nine Months Ended September 30, Percent Change
2024 2023 2024 2023
Revenue $ 11,439.1 $ 9,498.6 20 $ 31,509.9 $ 24,770.7 27
Net income (loss) 970.3 (57.4) NM 6,180.2 3,050.7 NM
Earnings (loss) per share - diluted 1.07 (0.06) NM 6.83 3.38 NM
NM - not meaningful
Revenue increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 driven by increased volume and higher realized prices. The increase in revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily driven by increased sales of Mounjaro®,Zepbound®, and Verzenio®, partially offset by declines in Trulicity® and the 2023 sale of rights for the olanzapine portfolio, including Zyprexa®.
Net income and earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased primarily due to higher gross margin, partially offset by increased research and development expenses, marketing, selling, and administrative expenses, and asset impairment, restructuring, and other special charges.
See "Results of Operations" for additional information.

Other Matters
Patent Matters
We depend on patents or other forms of intellectual property protection for most of our revenue, cash flows, and earnings.
See Note 10 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for a description of legal proceedings currently pending regarding certain of our patents and "Business-Patents, Trademarks, and Other Intellectual Property Rights" in Part I, Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2023 for a discussion of the impacts of trends involving intellectual property on our business and results.
Trends Affecting Pharmaceutical Pricing, Reimbursement, and Access and Certain Other Regulatory Developments
Reforms, including those that may stem from political initiatives, periods of uneven economic growth or downturns, or as a result of inflation or deflation, the emergence or escalation of, and responses to, international tension and conflicts, or government budgeting priorities, are expected to continue to result in added pressure on pricing and reimbursement for our products.
Global concern over access to, and affordability of, pharmaceutical products continues to drive regulatory and legislative debate and action, as well as cost containment efforts by governmental authorities. Such measures include the use of mandated discounts, price reporting requirements, mandated reference prices, restrictive formularies, changes to available intellectual property protections, as well as other efforts. In 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA). Among other measures, the IRA requires the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to effectively set prices for certain single-source drugs and biologics reimbursed under Medicare Part B and Part D. Generally, these government prices apply nine years (for medicines approved under a New Drug Application) or thirteen years (for medicines approved under a Biologics License Application) following initial FDA approval and are set at a price that generally represents a significant discount from existing prices to wholesalers and direct purchasers. While the law specifies a ceiling price, it does not set a minimum or floor price. In August 2023, HHS selected Jardiance®, which is part of our collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim, as one of the first ten medicines subject to government-set prices effective in 2026. In August 2024, HHS announced the government-set prices for these medicines with Jardiance subject to a 66% discount compared to 2023 U.S. calendar year list pricing for a 30-day supply and discounts for the other nine medicines selected by HHS ranging from approximately 38% to 79%. Given our product portfolio, we expect additional significant products will be selected in future years, which would have the effect of accelerating revenue erosion prior to expiry of exclusivities. The effect of reducing prices and reimbursement for certain of our products could significantly impact our business and consolidated results of operations.

Other IRA provisions require drug manufacturers to provide rebates for Medicare Part B and Part D medicines under certain circumstances. Also, on January 1, 2025, the Part D benefit redesign will replace the Part D Coverage Gap Discount Program with a new manufacturer discount program. Manufacturers that fail to comply with the IRA may be subject to various penalties, including civil monetary penalties, which could be significant.
The IRA has, and will continue to, meaningfully influence our business strategies and those of our competitors. In particular, the nine-year timeline to set prices for medicines approved under a New Drug Application reduces the attractiveness of investment in small molecule innovation. The IRA can cause changes to development approach and timing and investments at-risk. The full impact of the IRA on our business and the pharmaceutical industry, including the implications to us of a competitor's product being selected for price setting, remains uncertain.
Additional policies, regulations, legislation, or enforcement, including those proposed or pursued by the U.S. Congress, the U.S. executive branch, and regulatory authorities worldwide, could adversely impact our business and consolidated results of operations. For example, the U.S. House of Representatives recently passed the BIOSECURE Act, which is under consideration in the U.S. Senate. This legislation, if passed, could affect elements of the pharmaceutical supply chain; although as currently drafted we do not anticipate the bill would have a material impact on our business.
Consolidation and integration of private payers and pharmacy benefit managers in the U.S. has also significantly impacted the market for pharmaceuticals by increasing payer leverage in negotiating manufacturer price or rebate concessions and pharmacy reimbursement rates. Furthermore, restrictive or unfavorable pricing, coverage, or reimbursement determinations for our medicines or product candidates by governments, regulatory agencies, courts, or private payers may adversely impact our business and consolidated results of operations. We expect that these actions may intensify and could particularly affect certain products, which could adversely affect our business. In addition, we are engaged in litigation and investigations related to the 340B program, access to insulin, pricing, product safety, and other matters that, if resolved adversely to us, could negatively impact our business and consolidated results of operations. It is not currently possible to predict the overall potential adverse impact to us or the general pharmaceutical industry of continued cost containment efforts worldwide.
In addition, regulatory issues concerning compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practices, quality assurance, safety signals, evolving standards, and increased scrutiny around excipients and potential impurities such as nitrosamines, and similar regulations and standards (and comparable foreign regulations and standards) for our products in some cases lead to regulatory and legal actions, product recalls and seizures, fines and penalties, interruption of production leading to product shortages, import bans or denials of import certifications, inability to realize the benefit of capital expenditures, or delays or denials in new product approvals, line extensions or supplemental approvals of current products pending resolution of the issues, or other negative impacts, any of which result in reputational harm or adversely affect our business. Moreover, increased focus on business combinations across industries and jurisdictions can lead to impediments to the completion of business combinations.
See "Business-Regulations and Private Payer Actions Affecting Pharmaceutical Pricing, Reimbursement, and Access" in Part I, Item 1 and "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2023. See also Note 10 to the consolidated condensed financial statements.
Incretin Medicines
In prior periods, demand for our incretin medicines exceeded production. Supply and channel dynamics have also contributed to variability in quarter-over-quarter revenue growth rates for tirzepatide. Based on our forecast, we project that tirzepatide supply will meet near-term demand in the U.S. Supply considerations will continue to influence the timing of tirzepatide launches in new markets, and in the near-term, we expect overall worldwide sales growth for tirzepatide to generally be a function of the quantity we can produce and ship. Demand remains dynamic, and increases or changes in demand, by dose or overall, as well as the complex supply chain, may result in periodic unavailability of certain presentations and dose levels at certain locations even when total tirzepatide supply can meet demand. We continue to expand manufacturing capacity and progress efforts to bring tirzepatide to patients via different delivery presentations, such as single-use vials and multi-use pens. Production increases will continue, and additional capacity is expected to be operational over the next several years.
We have seen an increase in the production, marketing, and sale of counterfeit, fake, and compounded incretins. These practices threaten patient safety and undermine regulatory drug approval processes. Lilly will continue to consider all options, including filing lawsuits where appropriate, to address unlawful practices and the patient safety risks of unapproved, untested, and manipulated drugs.

Tax Matters
We are subject to income taxes and various other taxes in the U.S. and in many foreign jurisdictions; therefore, changes in both domestic and international tax laws or regulations have affected and may affect our effective tax rate, results of operations, and cash flows. The U.S. and countries around the world are actively proposing and enacting tax law changes. Further, actions taken with respect to tax-related matters by associations such as the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the European Commission could influence tax laws in countries in which we operate. Tax authorities in the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which we do business routinely examine our tax returns and are expected to increase their scrutiny of cross-border tax issues. Changes to existing U.S. and foreign tax laws and increased scrutiny by tax authorities in the U.S. and other jurisdictions could adversely impact our future consolidated results of operations and cash flows.
In response to the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (Framework), which set forth a two-pillar solution to reform the international tax framework, and the EU's adoption of Directive 2022/2523 (known as "Pillar Two") (Directive) within the EU to implement the Framework, multiple countries, both within and outside of the EU, have enacted legislation that provides for a minimum level of taxation of multinational companies. The Directive required EU member states to enact legislation effective for years beginning on or after December 31, 2023. For certain provisions within the Framework, the OECD published guidance during 2023 that extends the effective dates for enactment. While we expect an increase in future years' tax expense as a result of the global minimum tax, we do not anticipate a material impact to our 2024 consolidated results of operations. Our assessment of the impact for 2024 and subsequent years could be affected by legislative guidance, future enactment of additional provisions within the Pillar Two framework, and U.S. tax changes scheduled to occur in 2026 as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017 Tax Act).
A bipartisan tax bill, the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act, was passed by the U.S. House of Representatives in January 2024. The bill contains certain business tax provisions including the retroactive repeal for 2022 and 2023 and deferral of the requirement to capitalize U.S. research and development expenses for tax purposes that was a provision enacted in the 2017 Tax Act. Uncertainty exists as to whether the bill will be enacted into law as the bill did not receive enough votes to pass the U.S. Senate in August 2024; however, if the bill is enacted as currently drafted, we would expect our effective tax rate for 2024 to be moderately higher, and a net discrete tax detriment in the quarter of enactment related to 2022 and 2023. In addition, we would expect a decrease in cash tax payments.
Acquisitions
We invest in external research and technologies and manufacturing capabilities that we believe complement and strengthen our own efforts. These investments can take many forms, including acquisitions, collaborations, investments, and licensing arrangements. We view our business development activity as a way to enhance or refine our pipeline and strengthen our business.
See Note 3 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for further discussion regarding our recent acquisitions.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
As a global company, we face foreign currency risk exposure from fluctuating currency exchange rates, primarily the U.S. dollar against the euro, Japanese yen, and Chinese yuan. While we seek to manage a portion of these exposures through hedging and other risk management techniques, significant fluctuations in currency rates can have a material impact, either positive or negative, on our consolidated results of operations in any given period. There is uncertainty in the future movements in foreign currency exchange rates, and fluctuations in these rates have and could adversely impact our consolidated results of operations and cash flows.
Other Factors
Other factors have had, and may continue to have, an impact on our consolidated results of operations. These factors include cost and wage inflation, supply chain and labor market complexities, international tension and conflicts, uneven economic growth or downturns or uncertainty, and an increase in overall demand in our industry for certain products and materials.
See "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2023 for additional information on risk factors that could impact our business and operations.

In the U.S. for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the increase in volume was primarily driven by Zepbound and Mounjaro, partially offset by declines in Trulicity. Following higher wholesaler inventory levels at the end of the second quarter of 2024, Mounjaro and Zepbound sales in the U.S. for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were negatively impacted by inventory decreases in the wholesaler channel. We estimate this impacted sales of Mounjaro and Zepbound in the U.S. for the third quarter of 2024 by mid-single digits as a percent of aggregate U.S. sales of these products.
In the U.S. for the three months ended September 30, 2024, the higher realized prices were primarily driven by Humalog®, Verzenio and Trulicity. In the U.S. for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the higher realized prices were also positively impacted by the access and savings card dynamics related to Mounjaro, as the $25 non-covered benefit expired on June 30, 2023.
Outside the U.S. for the three months ended September 30, 2024, the decrease in volume was driven by the sale of rights for the olanzapine portfolio, including Zyprexa, in the third quarter of 2023, partially offset by the increase in volume by Mounjaro and Verzenio. Outside the U.S. for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the increase in volume was primarily driven by Mounjaro and Verzenio, partially offset by the 2023 sale of rights for the olanzapine portfolio.

Revenue of Mounjaro in the U.S. during the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $2.38 billion compared to $1.28 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2023, reflecting continued strong demand, increased supply and, to a lesser extent, favorable changes to estimates for rebates and discounts. Following higher wholesaler inventory levels at the end of the second quarter of 2024, sales in the U.S. for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were negatively impacted by inventory decreases in the wholesaler channel. Revenue of Mounjaro in the U.S. during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $6.32 billion compared to $2.73 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, reflecting continued strong demand, increased supply and higher realized prices due to access and savings card dynamics, as the $25 non-covered benefit expired on June 30, 2023. Revenue outside the U.S. during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $728.0 million and $1.69 billion, respectively, compared to $132.4 million and $228.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, primarily driven by increased volume associated with the launch of Mounjaro Kwikpen®in various markets.
Revenue of Trulicity decreased 26 percent and 31 percent in the U.S. during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, driven by decreased volume primarily due to competitive dynamics, partially offset by higher realized prices primarily due to changes to estimates for rebates and discounts. The decrease in volume in the U.S. during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was also driven by supply constrains during the first half of 2024. Revenue outside the U.S. decreased 12 percent and 14 percent during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, primarily driven by decreased volume due to competitive dynamics. The decrease in volume outside the U.S. during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was also driven by actions we have taken to manage demand.
43
Revenue of Verzenio increased 28 percent and 37 percent in the U.S. during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, primarily driven by increased demand and higher realized prices, partially offset by wholesaler buying patterns. Revenue outside of the U.S. increased 38 percent and 40 percent during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, primarily driven by increased demand.
Revenue of Zepbound in the U.S. during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $1.26 billion and $3.02 billion, respectively. Following higher wholesaler inventory levels at the end of the second quarter, sales in the U.S. for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were negatively impacted by inventory decreases in the wholesaler channel.
Revenue of Taltz increased 18 percent and 15 percent in the U.S. during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, driven by increased demand and higher realized prices, partially offset by wholesaler buying patterns. Revenue outside the U.S. increased 19 percent and 21 percent during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, driven by increased demand.
Revenue of Jardiance decreased 19 percent and was flat in the U.S. during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The decrease in revenue in the U.S. for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was driven by lower realized prices, partially offset by increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. increased 23 percent and 24 percent during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, driven by increased volume. See Note 4 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for information regarding our collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim involving Jardiance.

Gross margin as a percent of revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased 0.6 percentage points and 2.3 percentage points compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, primarily driven by favorable product mix and higher realized prices, partially offset by the sale of rights for the olanzapine portfolio in the third quarter of 2023 and higher manufacturing costs.
Research and development expenses increased 13 percent and 18 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, driven by continued investments in our early and late-stage portfolio.
Marketing, selling, and administrative expenses increased 16 percent and 13 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, primarily driven by promotional efforts supporting ongoing and future launches.
44
Acquired IPR&D charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were primarily related to the acquisition of Morphic. Acquired IPR&D charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily related to the acquisitions of DICE Therapeutics, Inc., Versanis Bio, Inc., and Emergence Therapeutics AG. See Note 3 to the consolidated condensed financial statements.
Asset impairment, restructuring, and other special charges for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were primarily related to impairment of an intangible asset associated with a molecule in development. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 asset impairment, restructuring, and other special charges also included charges related to litigation. See Note 5 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information.
Other-net, (income) expense included net investment (gains) losses on equity securities of $(112.4) million and $29.5 million for three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $62.9 million and $141.5 million for three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. See Note 12 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information.
The effective tax rates were 38.9 percent and 19.1 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and 113.4 percent and 24.6 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, primarily driven by unfavorable tax impacts of non-deductible acquired IPR&D charges, with a larger impact occurring in 2023.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
We believe our available cash and cash equivalents, together with our ability to generate operating cash flow and our access to short-term and long-term borrowings, are sufficient to fund our existing and planned capital requirements. For a discussion of our capital requirements, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2023.
We are making investments in global facilities to manufacture existing and future products. These investments, and other capital investments that support our operations, have increased our capital expenditures and will result in higher capital expenditures over the next several years.
As we expand our manufacturing capacity in order to meet existing and expected demand of our medicines, we have entered, and expect to continue to enter, into various agreements for contract manufacturing and for supply of materials. The executed agreements could, under certain circumstances, require us to pay up to approximately $11.5 billion if we do not purchase specified amounts of goods or services primarily related to our incretin medicines over the durations of the agreements, which are generally up to 8 years.
In the third quarter of 2024, we acquired Morphic for approximately $2.67 billion, net of cash acquired. We funded this acquisition with proceeds from the issuance of debt. See Note 3 and Note 7 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information.
Cash and cash equivalents increased to $3.37 billion as of September 30, 2024, compared with $2.82 billion as of December 31, 2023. Refer to the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows for additional information on the significant sources and uses of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
In addition to our cash and cash equivalents, we held total investments of $3.35 billion and $3.16 billion as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. See Note 7 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information.
As of September 30, 2024, total debt was $31.12 billion, an increase of $5.89 billion compared with $25.23 billion as of December 31, 2023. In August 2024, we issued $5.00 billion of fixed-rate notes and used a portion of the net cash proceeds to fund the acquisition of Morphic and related fees and expenses, with any remaining funds used for general business purposes, including the repayment of outstanding commercial paper. In February 2024, we issued $6.50 billion of fixed-rate notes and used, or may be using, the net cash proceeds for general business purposes, including the repayment of outstanding commercial paper, repayment of current maturities of long-term debt, and repayment of the $750.0 million of fixed-rate notes due in 2026. See Note 7 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information.
45
As of September 30, 2024, we had a total of $8.42 billion of unused committed bank credit facilities, $8.00 billion of which is available to support our commercial paper program. See Note 7 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information. We believe that amounts accessible through existing commercial paper markets should be adequate to fund short-term borrowing needs.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we repurchased $521.1 million of shares under our $5.00 billion share repurchase program authorized in May 2021. As of September 30, 2024, we had $1.98 billion remaining under this program.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we paid dividends of $3.51 billion, or $3.90 per share, to our shareholders. In October 2024, we declared a dividend for the fourth quarter of 2024 of $1.30 per share of outstanding common stock. The dividend of approximately $1.17 billion is payable on December 10, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 15, 2024.
See "Executive Overview-Other Matters-Patent Matters" for information regarding losses of patent protection.
Both domestically and abroad, we monitor the potential impacts of the economic environment and international tension and conflicts; the creditworthiness of our wholesalers and other customers, including foreign government-backed agencies and suppliers; the uncertain impact of healthcare legislation; various international government funding levels; and fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates (see "Executive Overview-Other Matters-Foreign Currency Exchange Rates"), and fair values of equity securities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations, management of a reporting company, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, must periodically evaluate the company's "disclosure controls and procedures," which are defined generally as controls and other procedures of a reporting company designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the reporting company in its periodic reports filed with the SEC (such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis.
Our management, with the participation of David Ricks, president and chief executive officer, and Lucas Montarce, executive vice president and chief financial officer, evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as such terms are defined in our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2023) as of September 30, 2024, and concluded that they were effective.
(b)Changes in Internal Controls. During the third quarter of 2024, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
