Bristol Myers Squibb is a biopharmaceutical company that researches, develops, manufactures and sells prescription medicines. Its key marketed products include Eliquis, Opdivo, Opdivo Qvantig, Orencia, Reblozyl and Yervoy, alongside Revlimid (lenalidomide). It is also developing newer treatment types such as CAR-T cell therapies and radiopharmaceutical therapeutics.
The company derives most of its revenue and earnings from this group of key products, whose commercial value is concentrated in each medicine's period of market exclusivity. In the United States, most products reach patients through wholesalers, with pharmacy chains, pharmacy benefit managers and commercial and government payers shaping coverage and reimbursement. It also earns royalties from out-licensed intellectual property and related arrangements, including royalties tied to Keytruda, Tecentriq and a patent settlement with Merck, several of which are set to end in 2026.
Bristol Myers Squibb operates internationally, selling in the United States, European Union member states and other countries, and is subject to tax and regulation across these jurisdictions. Under a US Government Agreement, it expects certain tariff relief until January 2029.
