Note 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (which may be referred to as Bristol-Myers Squibb, BMS or the Company) prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim reporting. Under those rules, certain footnotes and other financial information that are normally required for annual financial statements can be condensed or omitted. The Company is responsible for the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. These consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K (2013 Form 10-K).

Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Net product sales and alliance and other revenues previously presented in the aggregate as net sales in the consolidated statements of earnings are now presented separately.

Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Accordingly, the results and trends in these unaudited consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of full year operating results. The preparation of financial statements requires the use of management estimates and assumptions. The most significant assumptions are employed in estimates used in determining the fair value and potential impairment of intangible assets; sales rebate and return accruals; legal contingencies; income taxes; estimated selling prices used in multiple element arrangements; and pension and postretirement benefits. Actual results may differ from estimated results.

Note 2. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

BMS operates in a single segment engaged in the discovery, development, licensing, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sale of innovative medicines that help patients prevail over serious diseases. A global research and development organization and supply chain organization are utilized and responsible for the development and delivery of products to the market. Regional commercial organizations distribute and sell the products. The business is also supported by global corporate staff functions. Segment information is consistent with the financial information regularly reviewed by the chief executive officer for purposes of evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting future periods.

Revenues of products were as follows:

Note 3. ALLIANCES

BMS enters into collaboration arrangements with third parties for the development and commercialization of certain products. Although each of these arrangements is unique in nature, both parties are active participants in the operating activities of the collaboration and are exposed to significant risks and rewards depending on the commercial success of the activities. BMS may either in-license intellectual property owned by the other party or out-license its intellectual property to the other party. These arrangements also typically include research, development, manufacturing, and/or commercial activities and can cover a single investigational compound or commercial product or multiple compounds and/or products in various life cycle stages. We refer to these collaborations as alliances and our partners as alliance partners. Several key products such as Abilify*, Sprycel, Sustiva (Atripla*), Erbitux* and Eliquis, as well as products comprising the diabetes alliance discussed below and certain mature and other brands are included in alliance arrangements.

Payments between alliance partners are accounted for and presented in the results of operations after considering the specific nature of the payment and the underlying activities to which the payments relate. Multiple alliance activities, including the transfer of rights, are only separated into individual units of accounting if they have standalone value from other activities that occur over the life of the arrangements. In these situations, the arrangement consideration is allocated to the activities or rights on a relative selling price basis. If multiple alliance activities or rights do not have standalone value, they are combined into a single unit of accounting.


•	When BMS is the principal in the end customer sale, 100% of product sales are included in net product sales. When BMS's alliance partner is the principal in the end customer sale, BMS's contractual share of the third-party sales and/or royalty income are included in alliance and other revenue as the sale of commercial products are considered part of BMS's ongoing major or central operations.


•	Amounts payable to BMS by alliance partners (who are the principal in the end customer sale) for supply of commercial products are included in alliance and other revenue as the sale of commercial products are considered part of BMS's ongoing major or central operations.


•	Amounts payable by BMS to alliance partners for profit sharing, royalties and other sales-based fees are included in cost of products sold as incurred.


•	Cost reimbursements between the parties are recognized as incurred and included in cost of products sold; marketing, selling and administrative expenses; advertising and product promotion expenses; or research and development expenses, based on the underlying nature of the related activities subject to reimbursement.

•

Upfront and contingent development and approval milestones payable to BMS by alliance partners for investigational compounds and commercial products are deferred and amortized over the shorter of the contractual term or the periods in which the related compounds or products are expected to contribute to future cash flows. The amortization is presented consistent with the nature of the payment under the arrangement. For example, amounts received for investigational compounds are presented in other (income)/expense as the activities being performed at that time are not related to the sale of commercial products that are part of BMS’s ongoing major or central operations; amounts received for commercial products are presented in alliance and other revenue as the sale of commercial products are considered part of BMS’s ongoing major or central operations (except for the AstraZeneca PLC (AstraZeneca) alliance pertaining to the Amylin products).


•	Upfront and contingent approval milestones payable by BMS to alliance partners for commercial products are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the contractual term or the periods in which the related products are expected to contribute to future cash flows. The amortization is included in cost of products sold.


•	Upfront and contingent milestones payable by BMS to alliance partners prior to regulatory approval are expensed as incurred and included in research and development expenses.


•	Equity in net income of affiliates is included in other (income)/expense.


•	All payments between BMS and its alliance partners are presented in cash flows from operating activities, except as otherwise described below.

Selected financial information pertaining to our alliances was as follows, including net product sales when BMS is the principal in the third-party customer sale for products subject to the alliance. Expenses summarized below do not include all amounts attributed to the activities for the products in the alliance, but only the payments between the alliance partners or the related amortization if the payments were deferred or capitalized.

Specific information pertaining to each of our significant alliances is discussed in our 2013 Form 10-K, including their nature and purpose, the significant rights and obligations of the parties, and specific accounting policy elections. Significant developments and updates related to alliances for the first quarter of 2014 are set forth below.

AstraZeneca

In February 2014, BMS and AstraZeneca terminated their alliance agreements and BMS sold to AstraZeneca substantially all of the diabetes business comprising the alliance. Previously, BMS had an alliance with AstraZeneca consisting of three worldwide codevelopment and commercialization agreements covering (1) Onglyza* and related combination products sold under various names, (2) Forxiga* (Farxiga* in the U.S.) and related combination products and, (3) beginning in August 2012 after BMS's acquisition of Amylin Pharmaceutical, Inc. (Amylin), Amylin's portfolio of products including Bydureon*, Byetta*, Symlin* and Myalept*(metreleptin), as well as certain assets owned by Amylin, including a manufacturing facility located in West Chester, Ohio.

The divestiture included the shares of Amylin and the resulting transfer of its Ohio manufacturing facility; the intellectual property related to Onglyza* and Forxiga*; and the future purchase of BMS’s manufacturing facility located in Mount Vernon, Indiana in 2015. Substantially all employees dedicated to the diabetes business were transferred to AstraZeneca. The sale of the business was completed in all jurisdictions as of March 31, 2014 except China, pending consent from BMS's joint venture partners. For accounting purposes AstraZeneca is the principal for the end-customer product sales in all markets (except China) beginning February 1, 2014.

In connection with the sale, BMS and AstraZeneca entered into several agreements, including a transitional services agreement, a supply agreement and a development agreement. Under those agreements, BMS is obligated to provide transitional services such as accounting, financial services, customer service, distribution, regulatory, development, information technology and certain other administrative services for various periods in order to facilitate the orderly transfer of the business operations; to supply certain products, including the active product ingredients for Onglyza* and Forxiga* through 2020; and to perform ongoing development activities for certain clinical trial programs through 2016, among other things. The expected annual costs attributed to the development agreement are approximately $227 million in 2014, $127 million in 2015 and $84 million in 2016.

Consideration for the transaction includes a $2.7 billion payment at closing; contingent regulatory and sales-based milestone payments of up to $1.4 billion (including $800 million related to approval milestones and $600 million related to sales-based milestones, payable in 2020); royalty payments based on net sales through 2025 and payments up to $225 million if and when certain assets are transferred to AstraZeneca. AstraZeneca will also pay BMS for any required product supply at a price approximating the product cost as well as negotiated transitional service fees.

Royalty rates on net sales are as follows:



	2014		2015		2016		2017 - 2025
Onglyza* and Forxiga* Worldwide Net Sales up to $500 million	44	%	35	%	27	%	12-25%
Onglyza* and Forxiga* Worldwide Net Sales over $500 million	3	%	7	%	9	%	12-25%
Amylin products U.S. Net Sales	—		2	%	2	%	5-12%

The stock and asset purchase agreement contains multiple elements to be delivered subsequent to the closing of the transaction, including the China diabetes business, the Mount Vernon manufacturing facility, and the activities under the development and supply agreements. Each of these elements was determined to have standalone value. As a result, a portion of the consideration received at closing was allocated to the undelivered elements using the relative selling price method after determining the best estimated selling price for each element. The remaining amount of consideration was included in the calculation for the gain on sale of the diabetes business. Contingent milestone and royalty payments are similarly allocated among the underlying elements if and when the amounts are determined to be payable to BMS. Amounts allocated to the sale of the business are immediately recognized in the results of operations. Amounts allocated to the other elements are recognized in the results of operations only to the extent each element has been delivered.

Consideration of $3.5 billion was accounted for in the first quarter of 2014 (including royalties and $700 million of contingent regulatory milestone payments related to the approval of Farxiga* in the U.S. and Forxiga* in Japan). Approximately $2.8 billion of the consideration was allocated to the sale of the business and the remaining $649 million was allocated to the undelivered elements described above. The gain on sale of the diabetes business was $259 million. The gain was based on the difference between the consideration allocated to the sale of the business (net of transaction fees) and the carrying value of the diabetes business net assets (including a $600 million allocation of goodwill and the reversal of $821 million of net deferred tax liabilities attributed to Amylin). The consideration includes $59 million of earned royalties, of which $48 million was allocated to the sale of the business and included in other income and $11 million was allocated to the undelivered elements.

Consideration allocated to the China business and Mount Vernon manufacturing facility will continue to be deferred until those assets are transferred to AstraZeneca. Consideration allocated to the development and supply agreements will continue to be amortized over the applicable service periods. Amortization of deferred income attributed to the development agreement was included in other income as the sale of these services are not considered part of BMS’s ongoing major or central operations. Revenues attributed to the supply agreement were included in alliance and other revenues.

Consideration for the transaction is presented for cash flow purposes based on the allocation process described above, either as an investing activity if attributed to the sale of the business or related assets or as an operating activity if attributed to the transitional services, supply arrangement or development agreement. Consideration recognized in periods subsequent to the delivery of the elements is presented as a financing activity when received.

(a)	Included in liabilities related to assets held-for-sale at December 31, 2013.

Otsuka

As described in the 2013 Form 10-K, BMS recognizes revenue for Abilify* based on the expected annual contractual share using a forecast of net sales for the year. BMS assesses this percentage each quarter. This percentage was determined to be 33% and 35% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Gilead

As described in the 2013 Form 10-K, effective January 1, 2014, following the European loss of exclusivity for Sustiva, the percentage of Atripla* net sales in Europe recognized by BMS is equal to the difference between the average net selling prices of Atripla* and Truvada* (emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate). This alliance will continue until either party terminates the arrangement or the last patent expiration occurs for Atripla*, Truvada*, or Sustiva.

Pfizer

As described in the 2013 Form 10-K, BMS has an alliance with Pfizer relating to Eliquis. In January 2014, BMS received a $20 million milestone payment from Pfizer related to the approval of Eliquis in the U.S. for the prevention of deep vein thrombosis in patients who have undergone hip or knee surgery.

Valeant

As described in the 2013 Form 10-K, BMS has an alliance with Valeant for certain mature brands in Europe. In March 2014, Valeant notified BMS that it will exercise its option to acquire the trademarks and intellectual property exclusively related to the products at a price determined based on a multiple of sales (expected to be approximately $60 million). The closing is expected to occur in January 2015. In addition, a $16 million charge was included in other expense to increase the fair value of the option to $34 million.

Reckitt Benckiser Group plc

As described in the 2013 Form 10-K, BMS has an alliance with Reckitt Benckiser Group plc (Reckitt) covering certain BMS over-the-counter products sold primarily in Mexico and Brazil. Reckitt also has an option to acquire all remaining rights in such products for those markets and related inventories at the end of the alliance period (May 2016). In April 2014, the alliance was modified to provide an option to Reckitt to purchase a BMS manufacturing facility located in Mexico primarily dedicated to the products included in the alliance. The options can only be exercised together. Substantially, all employees at the facility are expected to be transferred to Reckitt if the option is exercised.

As discussed in "Note 3. Alliances", BMS sold its diabetes business to AstraZeneca in February 2014 which previously comprised the global alliance with them. See Note 3 for further information on the transaction. The diabetes business was treated as a single disposal group held-for-sale as of December 31, 2013. No write-down was required as the fair value of the business less costs to sell exceeded the related carrying value. The following assets and liabilities of the diabetes business held-for-sale were presented separately from BMS’s other accounts.

Note 7. INCOME TAXES



	Three months ended March 31,
Dollars in Millions	2014			2013
Earnings Before Income Taxes	$	985		$	674
Provision for income taxes	49			51
Effective tax rate	5.0		%	7.6		%

Changes in the effective tax rates between the current and prior period primarily resulted from the following items. The current period includes a $96 million income tax benefit attributed to the sale of the diabetes business. This tax benefit resulted primarily from the capital loss deduction on the sale of the Amylin shares. The prior period includes the retroactive reinstatement of the R&D tax credit and look through exception for the full year 2012 ($43 million). The applicable tax legislation for these items was not extended as of March 31, 2014, therefore the R&D tax credit was not considered in the 2014 effective tax rate.

The effective tax rate is lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35% primarily attributable to undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that have been considered or are expected to be indefinitely reinvested offshore. These undistributed earnings primarily relate to operations in Ireland and Puerto Rico, which operate under favorable tax grants not scheduled to expire prior to 2023. If these undistributed earnings are repatriated to the U.S. in the future, or if it were determined that such earnings are to be remitted in the foreseeable future, additional tax provisions would be required. Reforms to U.S. tax laws related to foreign earnings have been proposed and if adopted, may increase taxes, which could reduce the results of operations and cash flows.

BMS is currently audited by a number of tax authorities and significant disputes may arise related to issues such as transfer pricing, certain tax credits and the deductibility of certain expenses. BMS estimates that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2014 could decrease in the range of approximately $25 million to $75 million in the next twelve months as a result of the settlement of certain tax audits and other events resulting in the payment of additional taxes, the adjustment of certain deferred taxes and/or the recognition of tax benefits. It is also reasonably possible that new issues will be raised by tax authorities which may require adjustments to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits; however, an estimate of such adjustments cannot reasonably be made at this time. BMS believes that it has adequately provided for all open tax years by tax jurisdiction.

Effective January 2014, the Company adopted an update from the Financial Accounting Standards Board that clarified existing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when various qualifying tax benefit carryforwards exist, including when the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a reduction to deferred tax assets or as a liability. As a result, non-current deferred tax assets and income tax liabilities were reduced by $236 million.

Non-current available-for-sale corporate debt securities maturing within five years were $3,531 million as of March 31, 2014. Auction rate securities maturing beyond 10 years were $12 million as of March 31, 2014.

Fair Value Option for Financial Assets

The Company invests in equity and fixed income funds that are designed to offset the changes in fair value of certain employee retirement benefits. Investments in equity and fixed income funds are included in current marketable securities and were $75 million and $47 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2014 and $74 million and $46 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2013. Investment income resulting from the change in fair value for the investments in equity and fixed income funds was $2 million in 2014 and $5 million in 2013.

Qualifying Hedges

The following table summarizes the fair value of outstanding derivatives:



		March 31, 2014					December 31, 2013
Dollars in Millions	Balance Sheet Location	Notional		Fair Value			Notional		Fair Value
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments:
Interest rate swap contracts	Other assets	$	973	$	86		$	673	$	64
Interest rate swap contracts	Other liabilities	1,350		(12		)	1,950		(27		)
Foreign currency forward contracts	Prepaid expenses and other	227		32			301		44

Foreign currency forward contracts	Accrued expenses	625		(24		)	704		(31		)
Foreign currency forward contracts	Other liabilities	259		(3		)	263		(4		)

Cash Flow Hedges — Foreign currency forward contracts are primarily utilized to hedge forecasted intercompany inventory purchase transactions in certain foreign currencies. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges with the effective portion of changes in fair value being temporarily reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss and recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. The net gains on foreign currency forward contracts are expected to be reclassified to cost of products sold within the next two years, including $8 million of pre-tax gains to be reclassified within the next 12 months. The notional amount of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts was primarily attributed to the Euro ($726 million) and Japanese yen ($255 million) at March 31, 2014.

Cash flow hedge accounting is discontinued when the forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring on the originally forecasted date, or 60 days thereafter, or when the hedge is no longer effective. Assessments to determine whether derivatives designated as qualifying hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of hedged items are performed at inception and on a quarterly basis. Any ineffective portion of the change in fair value is included in current period earnings. The earnings impact related to discontinued cash flow hedges and hedge ineffectiveness was not significant during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Net Investment Hedges — Non-U.S. dollar borrowings of €541 million ($749 million) are designated to hedge the foreign currency exposures of the net investment in certain foreign affiliates. These borrowings are designated as net investment hedges and recognized in long-term debt. The effective portion of foreign exchange gains or losses on the remeasurement of the debt is recognized in the foreign currency translation component of accumulated other comprehensive loss with the related offset in long-term debt.

Fair Value Hedges — Fixed-to-floating interest rate swap contracts are designated as fair value hedges and are used as part of an interest rate risk management strategy to create an appropriate balance of fixed and floating rate debt. The swaps and underlying debt for the benchmark risk being hedged are recorded at fair value. When the underlying swap is terminated prior to maturity, the fair value basis adjustment to the underlying debt instrument is amortized into earnings as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt.

Fixed-to-floating interest rate swap contracts were executed in 2014 to convert $200 million notional amount from fixed rate to variable rate debt.

Long-term debt and the current portion of long-term debt includes:

The fair value of debt was $7,909 million at March 31, 2014 and $8,487 million at December 31, 2013 and was valued using Level 2 inputs. Interest payments were $37 million and $49 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, net of amounts related to interest rate swap contracts.

No commercial paper borrowings were outstanding as of March 31, 2014.

Pension settlement charges were recognized in the first quarter of 2014 after determining the annual lump sum payments will likely exceed the annual interest and service costs for certain pension plans, including the primary U.S. pension plan. The charges included the acceleration of a portion of unrecognized actuarial losses. The applicable pension benefit obligation and pension plan assets were remeasured as of March 31, 2014 resulting in a decrease to other assets and a corresponding increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $250 million. The changes resulted from a lower weighted average discount rate assumed in remeasuring the pension benefit obligations (4.2% at March 31, 2014 and 4.6% at December 31, 2013) partially offset by higher actual return on plan assets than expected. Contributions to the pension plans are expected to approximate $120 million during 2014, of which $61 million were incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The expense attributed to defined contribution plans in the U.S. was $50 million and $47 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Note 16. EMPLOYEE STOCK BENEFIT PLANS

Stock-based compensation expense was as follows:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
Dollars in Millions	2014		2013
Restricted stock	$	19	$	18
Market share units	9		8
Performance share units	21		23
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	49	$	49

Income tax benefit	$	16	$	16

In the three months ended March 31, 2014, 1.7 million restricted stock units, 0.9 million market share units and 2.3 million performance share units were granted. The weighted-average grant date fair value was $52.58 for restricted stock units, $55.44 for market share units and $55.17 for performance share units granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Substantially all restricted stock units vest ratably over a four year period. Market share units vest ratably over a four year period and the number of shares ultimately issued is based on share price performance. The fair value of market share units considers the probability of satisfying market conditions. The number of shares issued when performance share units vest is determined based on the achievement of annual performance goals. Performance share units vest at the end of the three year period.

Unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested awards of $414 million is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years.

Note 17. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in various lawsuits, claims, government investigations and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company recognizes accruals for such contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. These matters involve patent infringement, antitrust, securities, pricing, sales and marketing practices, environmental, commercial, health and safety matters, consumer fraud, employment matters, product liability and insurance coverage. Legal proceedings that are material or that the Company believes could become material are described below.

Although the Company believes it has substantial defenses in these matters, there can be no assurance that there will not be an increase in the scope of pending matters or that any future lawsuits, claims, government investigations or other legal proceedings will not be material. Unless otherwise noted, the Company is unable to assess the outcome of the respective litigation nor is it able to provide an estimated range of potential loss. Furthermore, failure to enforce our patent rights would likely result in substantial decreases in the respective product revenues from generic competition.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Atripla*

In April 2009, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (Teva) filed an abbreviated New Drug Application (aNDA) to manufacture and market a generic version of Atripla*. Atripla* is a single tablet three-drug regimen combining the Company’s Sustiva (efavirenz) and Gilead’s Truvada* (emtricitabine and tenofovir disproxil fumarate). As of this time, the Company’s U.S. patent rights covering Sustiva’s method of use has not been challenged. The composition of matter expired in November 2013. Teva sent Gilead a Paragraph IV certification letter challenging two of the fifteen Orange Book-listed patents for Atripla*. In May 2009, Gilead filed a patent infringement action against Teva in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (SDNY). In January 2010, the Company received a notice that Teva amended its aNDA and was challenging eight additional Orange Book-listed patents for Atripla*. In March 2010, the Company and Merck, Sharp & Dohme Corp. (Merck) filed a patent infringement action against Teva also in the SDNY relating to two U.S. patents which claim crystalline or polymorph forms of efavirenz. In August 2013, the Company, Merck and Teva reached a settlement relating to the two efavirenz polymorph patents and the case has been dismissed. In March 2010, Gilead filed two patent infringement actions against Teva in the SDNY relating to six Orange Book-listed patents for Atripla* and in April 2013, Gilead and Teva reached an agreement to settle the lawsuit on the patents covering tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. In February 2014, Gilead and Teva reached a settlement in principle to settle the ongoing litigation concerning the emtricitabine patents covering Atripla* and Truvada*.

Baraclude

In August 2010, Teva filed an aNDA to manufacture and market generic versions of Baraclude. The Company received a Paragraph IV certification letter from Teva challenging the one Orange Book-listed patent for Baraclude, U.S. Patent No. 5,206,244 (the ‘244 Patent), covering the entecavir molecule. In September 2010, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (Delaware District Court) against Teva for infringement. In February 2013, the Delaware District Court ruled against the Company and invalidated the ‘244 Patent. The Company has appealed the Delaware District Court’s decision and a decision is expected in 2014. In October 2013, Teva's aNDA for its generic version of entecavir was tentatively approved by the FDA. The Company is prepared to take legal action in the event that Teva chooses to launch its generic product prior to the resolution of the Company's appeal. There could be a rapid and significant negative impact on U.S. net product sales of Baraclude in 2014. U.S. net product sales of Baraclude were $289 million in 2013.

Baraclude — South Korea

In 2013, Daewoong Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. and Hanmi Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. initiated separate invalidity actions in the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO) against Korean Patent No. 160,523 (the ‘523 patent). The ‘523 patent expires in October 2015 and is the Korean equivalent of the ‘244 Patent, the U.S. composition of matter patent. The invalidity actions have been consolidated and are pending. We may receive a decision in 2014. There is a risk that a decision invalidating the patent will encourage generic companies to launch generic versions of Baraclude prior to October 2015. Net product sales of Baraclude in South Korea were $158 million in 2013.

Plavix*—Australia

As previously disclosed, Sanofi was notified that, in August 2007, GenRx Proprietary Limited (GenRx) obtained regulatory approval of an application for clopidogrel bisulfate 75mg tablets in Australia. GenRx, formerly a subsidiary of Apotex Inc. (Apotex), has since changed its name to Apotex. In August 2007, Apotex filed an application in the Federal Court of Australia (the Federal Court) seeking revocation of Sanofi’s Australian Patent No. 597784 (Case No. NSD 1639 of 2007). Sanofi filed counterclaims of infringement and sought an injunction. On September 21, 2007, the Federal Court granted Sanofi’s injunction. A subsidiary of the Company was subsequently added as a party to the proceedings. In February 2008, a second company, Spirit Pharmaceuticals Pty. Ltd., also filed a revocation suit against the same patent. This case was consolidated with the Apotex case and a trial occurred in April 2008. On August 12, 2008, the Federal

Court of Australia held that claims of Patent No. 597784 covering clopidogrel bisulfate, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, and taurocholate salts were valid. The Federal Court also held that the process claims, pharmaceutical composition claims, and claim directed to clopidogrel and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts were invalid. The Company and Sanofi filed notices of appeal in the Full Court of the Federal Court of Australia (Full Court) appealing the holding of invalidity of the claim covering clopidogrel and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, process claims, and pharmaceutical composition claims which have stayed the Federal Court’s ruling. Apotex filed a notice of appeal appealing the holding of validity of the clopidogrel bisulfate, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, and taurocholate claims. A hearing on the appeals occurred in February 2009. On September 29, 2009, the Full Court held all of the claims of Patent No. 597784 invalid. In November 2009, the Company and Sanofi applied to the High Court of Australia (High Court) for special leave to appeal the judgment of the Full Court. In March 2010, the High Court denied the Company and Sanofi’s request to hear the appeal of the Full Court decision. The case has been remanded to the Federal Court for further proceedings related to damages sought by Apotex. The Australian government has intervened in this matter and is also seeking damages for alleged losses experienced during the period when the injunction was in place. It is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of the Australian government’s claim or its impact on the Company.

Plavix*—Canada (Apotex, Inc.)

On April 22, 2009, Apotex filed an impeachment action against Sanofi in the Federal Court of Canada alleging that Sanofi’s Canadian Patent No. 1,336,777 (the ‘777 Patent) is invalid. On June 8, 2009, Sanofi filed its defense to the impeachment action and filed a suit against Apotex for infringement of the ‘777 Patent. The trial was completed in June 2011 and in December 2011, the Federal Court of Canada issued a decision that the ‘777 Patent is invalid. In July 2013, the Federal Court of Appeal reversed the Federal Court of Canada's decision and upheld the validity of the '777 Patent. The case was remanded to the Federal Court of Canada to consider the damages owed to the Company by Apotex for the infringement of the ‘777 patent. In September 2013, Apotex sought leave to appeal the decision of the Federal Court of Appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada and the Supreme Court of Canada is scheduled to hear the case in November 2014.

GENERAL COMMERCIAL LITIGATION

Remaining Apotex Matters Related to Plavix*

As previously disclosed, in November 2008, Apotex filed a lawsuit in New Jersey Superior Court against the Company and Sanofi, seeking payment of $60 million, plus interest calculated at the rate of 1% per month, related to the break-up of a March 2006 proposed settlement agreement relating to the-then pending Plavix* patent litigation against Apotex. In April 2011, the New Jersey Superior Court granted the Company’s cross-motion for summary judgment motion and denied Apotex’s motion for summary judgment. Apotex appealed these decisions and the New Jersey Appellate Division reversed the grant of summary judgments remanding the case back to the Superior Court for additional proceedings. The parties have agreed to resolve this matter through binding arbitration, which took place in March 2014. A decision is expected in the second quarter of 2014. The resolution of this matter is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.

In January 2011, Apotex filed a lawsuit in Florida State Court, Broward County, alleging breach of contract relating to the May 2006 proposed settlement agreement with Apotex relating to the then pending Plavix* patent litigation. A trial was held in March 2013 and a jury verdict was delivered in favor of the Company. Apotex has appealed this decision.

PRICING, SALES AND PROMOTIONAL PRACTICES LITIGATION AND INVESTIGATIONS

Abilify* Federal Subpoena

In January 2012, the Company received a subpoena from the United States Attorney’s Office for the SDNY requesting information related to, among other things, the sales and marketing of Abilify*. It is not possible at this time to assess the outcome of this matter or its potential impact on the Company.

Abilify* State Attorneys General Investigation

In March 2009, the Company received a letter from the Delaware Attorney General’s Office advising of a multi-state coalition investigating whether certain Abilify* marketing practices violated those respective states’ consumer protection statutes. The Company has entered into a tolling agreement with the states. It is not possible at this time to reasonably assess the outcome of this investigation or its potential impact on the Company.

Abilify* Co-Pay Assistance Litigation

In March 2012, the Company and its partner Otsuka were named as co-defendants in a putative class action lawsuit filed by union health and welfare funds in the SDNY. Plaintiffs challenged the legality of the Abilify* co-pay assistance program under various theories. The Company and Otsuka filed motions to dismiss the complaint. In April 2014, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed the case with prejudice against the Company, which concludes the matter.

AWP Litigation

As previously disclosed, the Company, together with a number of other pharmaceutical manufacturers, has been a defendant in a number of private class actions as well as suits brought by the attorneys general of various states. In these actions, plaintiffs allege that defendants caused the Average Wholesale Prices (AWPs) of their products to be inflated, thereby injuring government programs, entities and persons who reimbursed prescription drugs based on AWPs. The Company remains a defendant in two state attorneys general suits pending in state courts in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Beginning in August 2010, the Company was the defendant in a trial in the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania (Commonwealth Court), brought by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In September 2010, the jury issued a verdict for the Company, finding that the Company was not liable for fraudulent or negligent misrepresentation; however, the Commonwealth Court judge issued a decision on a Pennsylvania consumer protection claim that did not go to the jury, finding the Company liable for $28 million and enjoining the Company from contributing to the provision of inflated AWPs. The Company appealed the decision to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court and oral argument took place in May 2013.

Qui Tam Litigation

In March 2011, the Company was served with an unsealed qui tam complaint filed by three former sales representatives in California Superior Court, County of Los Angeles. The California Department of Insurance has elected to intervene in the lawsuit. The complaint alleges the Company paid kickbacks to California providers and pharmacies in violation of California Insurance Frauds Prevention Act, Cal. Ins. Code § 1871.7. It is not possible at this time to reasonably assess the outcome of this lawsuit or its impact on the Company.

PRODUCT LIABILITY LITIGATION

The Company is a party to various product liability lawsuits. As previously disclosed, in addition to lawsuits, the Company also faces unfiled claims involving its products.

Plavix*

As previously disclosed, the Company and certain affiliates of Sanofi are defendants in a number of individual lawsuits in various state and federal courts claiming personal injury damage allegedly sustained after using Plavix*. Currently, over 5,700 claims involving injury plaintiffs as well as claims by spouses and/or other beneficiaries, are filed in state and federal courts in various states including California, Illinois, New Jersey, Delaware and New York. In February 2013, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation granted the Company and Sanofi’s motion to establish a multidistrict litigation to coordinate Federal pretrial proceedings in Plavix* product liability and related cases in New Jersey Federal Court. It is not possible at this time to reasonably assess the outcome of these lawsuits or the potential impact on the Company.

Reglan*

The Company is one of a number of defendants in numerous lawsuits, on behalf of approximately 3,000 plaintiffs, including injury plaintiffs claiming personal injury allegedly sustained after using Reglan* or another brand of the generic drug metoclopramide, a product indicated for gastroesophageal reflux and certain other gastrointestinal disorders, as well as claims by spouses and/or other beneficiaries. The Company, through its generic subsidiary, Apothecon, Inc., distributed metoclopramide tablets manufactured by another party between 1996 and 2000. It is not possible at this time to reasonably assess the outcome of these lawsuits. The resolution of these pending lawsuits, however, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.

Byetta*

Amylin, a former subsidiary of the Company, and Lilly are co-defendants in product liability litigation related to Byetta*. To date, there are over 300 separate lawsuits pending on behalf of over 1,300 plaintiffs, which include injury plaintiffs as well as claims by spouses and/or other beneficiaries, in various courts in the U.S. The Company has agreed in principle to resolve over 500 of these claims. The majority of these cases have been brought by individuals who allege personal injury sustained after using Byetta*, primarily pancreatic cancer and pancreatitis, and, in some cases, claiming alleged wrongful death. The majority of cases are pending in Federal Court in San Diego in a recently established multidistrict litigation, with the next largest contingent of cases pending in a coordinated proceeding in California Superior Court in Los Angeles. Amylin has product liability insurance covering a substantial number of claims involving Byetta* and any additional liability to Amylin with respect to Byetta* is expected to be shared between the Company and AstraZeneca. It is not possible to reasonably predict the outcome of any lawsuit, claim or proceeding or the potential impact on the Company.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROCEEDINGS

As previously reported, the Company is a party to several environmental proceedings and other matters, and is responsible under various state, federal and foreign laws, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), for certain costs of investigating and/or remediating contamination resulting from past industrial activity at the Company’s current or former sites or at waste disposal or reprocessing facilities operated by third-parties.

CERCLA Matters

With respect to CERCLA matters for which the Company is responsible under various state, federal and foreign laws, the Company typically estimates potential costs based on information obtained from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or counterpart state or foreign agency and/or studies prepared by independent consultants, including the total estimated costs for the site and the expected cost-sharing, if any, with other “potentially responsible parties,” and the Company accrues liabilities when they are probable and reasonably estimable. The Company estimated its share of future costs for these sites to be $66 million at March 31, 2014, which represents the sum of best estimates or, where no best estimate can reasonably be made, estimates of the minimal probable amount among a range of such costs (without taking into account any potential recoveries from other parties).

New Brunswick Facility—Environmental & Personal Injury Lawsuits

Since May 2008, over 300 lawsuits have been filed against the Company in New Jersey Superior Court by or on behalf of current and former residents of New Brunswick, New Jersey who live or have lived adjacent to the Company’s New Brunswick facility. The complaints allege various personal injuries resulting from environmental contamination at the New Brunswick facility and historical operations at that site, or are claims for medical monitoring. A portion of these complaints also assert claims for alleged property damage. In October 2008, the New Jersey Supreme Court granted Mass Tort status to these cases and transferred them to the New Jersey Superior Court in Atlantic County for centralized case management purposes. Since October 2011, over 200 additional cases have been filed in New Jersey Superior Court and removed by the Company to United States District Court, District of New Jersey. Accordingly, there are in excess of 500 cases between the state and federal court actions. Discovery is ongoing. The first trial is currently scheduled to commence in state court in September 2014. It is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of these lawsuits or the potential impact on the Company.

North Brunswick Township Board of Education

As previously disclosed, in October 2003, the Company was contacted by counsel representing the North Brunswick, NJ Board of Education (BOE) regarding a site where waste materials from E.R. Squibb and Sons may have been disposed from the 1940’s through the 1960’s. Fill material containing industrial waste and heavy metals in excess of residential standards was discovered during an expansion project at the North Brunswick Township High School, as well as at a number of neighboring residential properties and adjacent public park areas. In January 2004, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) sent the Company and others an information request letter about possible waste disposal at the site, to which the Company responded in March 2004. The BOE and the Township, as the current owners of the school property and the park, are conducting and jointly financing soil remediation work and ground water investigation work under a work plan approved by the NJDEP, and have asked the Company to contribute to the cost. The Company is actively monitoring the clean-up project, including its costs. To date, neither the school board nor the Township has asserted any claim against the Company. Instead, the Company and the local entities have negotiated an agreement to attempt to resolve the matter by informal means, and avoid litigation. A central component of the agreement is the provision by the Company of interim funding to help defray cleanup costs and assure the work is not interrupted. The Company transmitted interim funding payments in December 2007 and November 2009. The parties commenced mediation in late 2008; however, those efforts were not successful and the parties moved to a binding allocation process. The parties are expected to conduct fact and expert discovery, followed by formal evidentiary hearings and written argument. Hearings are scheduled to commence in May 2014. In addition, in September 2009, the Township and BOE filed suits against several other parties alleged to have contributed waste materials to the site. The Company does not currently believe that it is responsible for any additional amounts beyond the two interim payments totaling $4 million already transmitted. Any additional possible loss is not expected to be material.

OTHER PROCEEDINGS

SEC Germany Investigation

In October 2006, the SEC informed the Company that it had begun a formal inquiry into the activities of certain of the Company’s German pharmaceutical subsidiaries and its employees and/or agents. The SEC’s inquiry encompasses matters formerly under investigation by the German prosecutor in Munich, Germany, which have since been resolved. The Company understands the inquiry concerns potential violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). The Company has been cooperating with the SEC.

FCPA Investigation

In March 2012, the Company received a subpoena from the SEC. The subpoena, issued in connection with an investigation under the FCPA, primarily relates to sales and marketing practices in various countries. The Company is cooperating with the government in its investigation of these matters.

Note 18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In April 2014, BMS acquired all of the outstanding shares of iPierian, Inc. (iPierian), a biotechnology company focused on new treatments for Tauopathies, a class of neurodegenerative diseases. The acquisition provides BMS with full rights to IPN007, a preclinical monoclonal antibody to treat progressive supranuclear palsy and other Tauopathies. The consideration includes an upfront payment of $175 million, contingent development and regulatory milestone payments up to $550 million and future royalties on net sales if any of the acquired preclinical assets are approved and commercialized. The transaction is expected to be accounted for as an asset acquisition with essentially all value allocated to IPN007 resulting in a $175 million charge to research and development expense.

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

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (which may be referred to as Bristol-Myers Squibb, BMS, the Company, we, our or us) is a global biopharmaceutical company whose mission is to discover, develop and deliver innovative medicines that help patients prevail over serious diseases. We license, manufacture, market, distribute and sell pharmaceutical products on a global basis.

In February, the Company sold to AstraZeneca substantially all of the diabetes business comprising our alliance with them. BMS received payments of $3.3 billion from AstraZeneca including a $600 million payment for the U.S. approval of Farxiga* (dapagliflozin). BMS also received $100 million in April for the approval of dapagliflozin in Japan. Under terms of the agreement, the Company will potentially receive additional regulatory and sales-based milestone payments from AstraZeneca of up to $700 million; royalty payments based on net sales through 2025 and additional payments if and when certain assets are subsequently transferred. Revenues in the U.S. and expenses decreased in the current period as a result of the divestiture and a $355 million after tax gain on the sale of the business was recognized. See "Item 1. Financial Statements—Alliances" for further information.

The company plans to initiate a rolling submission for nivolumab in third-line squamous cell non-small cell lung cancer based on Study 063, which it expects to complete by year-end.

Strategy

Since 2007, we have been transforming BMS into a leading-edge biopharma company focused exclusively on discovering, developing, and delivering innovative medicines that address serious unmet medical needs. We continue to evolve driven by this fundamental objective as we grow our marketed products and progress our pipeline.

We are focused on four core therapeutic areas: oncology, virology, immunology, and specialty cardiovascular disease. Within oncology, we are pioneering innovative medicines in the area of immuno-oncology which unlock the body’s own immune system to battle cancer. Yervoy (ipilimumab), our first immuno-oncology agent, was introduced in 2011 for the treatment of metastatic melanoma. We continue to invest significantly in our deep pipeline of innovative medicines in this area covering a broad array of cancers.

We are evolving our commercial model and growing our marketed product portfolio in a manner consistent with our overall strategy. In oncology, we are building on the success of Yervoy, which yielded 2013 revenues of nearly $1 billion, and other products such as Sprycel (dasatinib) and Erbitux* (cetuximab). Beyond oncology, we continue to support key brands in our virology franchise such as Reyataz (atazanavir sulfate) and Baraclude (entecavir) (together accounting for approximately $3 billion in revenues in 2013), in addition to investing in Orencia (abatacept), the key brand in our immunology portfolio, which accounted for approximately $1.4 billion in revenues in 2013. Additionally, we are strongly committed to Eliquis (apixaban), a novel oral anti-coagulant, which launched globally in 2013 via our alliance with Pfizer, Inc (Pfizer).

The divestiture of our diabetes portfolio allows us to further accelerate the evolution of our business model into a leading specialty care biopharma company. This transaction also allows us to focus our resources behind our growth opportunities that drive the greatest long-term value.

Looking ahead, we will continue to implement our biopharma strategy by driving the growth of key brands, executing new product launches, investing in our pipeline, maintaining a culture of continuous improvement, and pursuing disciplined capital allocation, including through business development.

Product and Pipeline Developments

We manage our research and development (R&D) programs on a portfolio basis, investing resources in each stage from early discovery through late-stage development. We continually evaluate our portfolio of R&D assets to ensure that there is an appropriate balance of early-stage and late-stage programs to support future growth. We consider our R&D programs that have entered into Phase III development to be significant, as these programs constitute our late-stage development pipeline. These development programs include both investigational compounds in Phase III development for initial indications and marketed products that are in Phase III development for additional indications or formulations. The following are the recent significant developments in our marketed products and our late-stage pipeline:

Nivolumab - a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to the programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) on T and NKT cells that is being investigated as an anti-cancer treatment


•	In April, the Company met with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding the results of Study 063, which evaluated nivolumab in third-line squamous cell non-small cell lung cancer, and plans to initiate a rolling submission for this indication based on Study 063 in the coming days. The Company expects to complete the rolling submission by year-end.

Reyataz - a protease inhibitor for the treatment of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)

•

In April 2014, the Company announced the submission of a new drug application (NDA) to the FDA for a fixed-dose combination of atazanavir sulfate, a protease inhibitor marketed as Reyataz, and cobicistat, an investigational pharmacokinetic enhancer, or boosting agent, that can increase the level of certain HIV-1 medicines in the blood and make them more effective. Cobicistat is being developed by Gilead Sciences, Inc (Gilead).

Hepatitis C Portfolio - (Daclatasvir (DCV) - an NS5A replication complex inhibitor in development; Asunaprevir (ASV) - an NS3 protease inhibitor in development; BMS-791325 - an NS5B non-nucleoside polymerase inhibitor in development)

•

In April 2014, the Company announced Phase III results from the global HALLMARK-Dual study investigating the all-oral, interferon- and ribavirin-free regimen of DCV + ASV among genotype 1b hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected patients. Results showed that the 24-week regimen achieved an overall sustained virologic response (a functional cure) 12 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR12) among treatment-naïve (90%), peginterferon/ribavirin non-responder (82%), and peginterferon/ribavirin ineligible/intolerant (82%) patients, including cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic patients (84% and 85%, respectively). In the study the DCV+ASV regimen was generally well tolerated.


•	In April 2014, the Company announced the submission of an NDA with the FDA for investigational DCV Dual Regimen (DCV + ASV). The data submitted in the NDAs support the use of DCV + ASV in patients with HCV. The DCV NDA also seeks approval for use of this compound in combination with other agents for multiple genotypes. The submissions are subject to FDA review for acceptance for filing.


•	In February 2014, the Company announced that the FDA has granted its investigational DCV Dual Regimen (DCV + ASV) Breakthrough Therapy Designation for use as a combination therapy in the treatment of genotype 1b chronic HCV. The designation is based on data from the Company’s ongoing Phase III clinical trial program evaluating the all-oral combination regimen of DCV + ASV without ribavirin.

•

In January 2014, the Company announced that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has validated the marketing authorization application (MAA) for the use of DCV for the treatment of adults with chronic HCV with compensated liver disease, including genotypes 1, 2, 3 and 4. The application seeks the approval of daclatasvir for use in combination with other agents, including sofosbuvir, for the treatment of chronic HCV. The EMA's validation marks the start of an accelerated regulatory review process.

Eliquis (apixaban) - an oral Factor Xa inhibitor, targeted at stroke prevention in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and the prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolic (VTE) disorders. Eliquis is part of our alliance with Pfizer.

•

In March 2014, the Company and Pfizer announced the results of a pre-specified subanalysis of the Phase III ARISTOTLE trial assessing the effect of blood pressure control on outcomes. The study showed that the results for stroke risk reduction for Eliquis versus warfarin were consistent with the overall ARISTOTLE study results, demonstrating that Eliquis reduced stroke or systemic embolism, caused fewer major bleeding events and reduced all-cause mortality as compared to warfarin, regardless of blood pressure control. The results also showed that poor blood pressure control was associated with a substantially higher risk of stroke or systemic embolism, independent of Eliquis or warfarin treatment.


•	In March 2014, the Company and Pfizer announced that the FDA approved a supplemental New Drug Application(sNDA) for Eliquis for the prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis, which may lead to pulmonary embolism, in patients who have undergone hip or knee replacement surgery.

•

In February 2014, the Company and Pfizer announced results of a pre-specified subanalysis of the Phase III ARISTOTLE trial in relation to patient age. ARISTOTLE was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Eliquis compared to warfarin for reducing the risk of stroke or systemic embolism in patients with NVAF. This subanalysis found consistent results across age groups for reducing the risk of stroke and systemic embolism and reducing the risk of all-cause death with fewer bleeding events for Eliquis versus warfarin. Owing to the higher risk at older age (age 75 and older), the absolute benefit to patients with NVAF was greater with Eliquis in the older population.

Diabetes Alliance Products:


•	In March 2014, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved Forxiga*.


•	In February 2014, the FDA approved the sNDA for the Dual Chamber Pen presentation of Bydureon*.


•	In February 2014, Myalept*(metreleptin for injection) was approved by the FDA as an adjunct to diet as replacement therapy to treat the complications of leptin deficiency in patients with congenital or acquired generalized lipodystrophy.


•	In January 2014, the Company and AstraZeneca announced that Xigduo* (dapagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride) has been granted marketing authorization by the European Commission for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in the European Union (EU).


•	In January 2014, the Company and AstraZeneca announced the FDA approved Farxiga* to improve glycemic control, along with diet and exercise, in adults with type 2 diabetes.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total Revenues



	Three Months Ended March 31,
					2014 vs. 2013
	Total Revenues				Analysis of % Change

Total	$	3,811	$	3,831	(1	)%	1	%	(1	)%	(1	)%


(a)	Other total revenues include royalties and other alliance-related revenues for products not sold by our regional commercial organizations.

No single country outside the U.S. contributed more than 10% of total revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. In general, our business is not seasonal.

The change in U.S. revenues attributed to volume resulted from the diabetes business divestiture in February 2014 and wholesaler buying patterns, partially offset by increased demand for certain key products. The change in U.S. revenues attributed to price was due to higher average net selling prices of Abilify*(aripiprazole) and other key products. See “—Revenues of Products” for further discussions.

Revenues in Europe remained relatively flat as higher demand for most key products and favorable foreign exchange were offset by loss of exclusivity of Sustiva in 2013 and fiscal challenges in many European countries as healthcare payers, including government agencies, have reduced and are expected to continue to reduce healthcare costs through actions that directly or indirectly impose additional price reductions. These measures include, but are not limited to, mandatory discounts, rebates, and other restrictive measures.

Revenues in Rest of the World increased due to volume growth for most key products (particularly in Japan and China) partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange (primarily in Japan and Canada), and generic competition for mature brands.

Other revenues increased due to higher royalties and revenue from alliances including mature brands and over-the-counter products. These revenues are expected to decline in 2015 and 2016 upon the expiration of certain royalty and alliance agreements.

We recognize revenue net of gross-to-net adjustments that are further described in “—Critical Accounting Policies” in the Company’s 2013 Form 10-K. Our share of Abilify* and Atripla* is reflected net of all gross-to-net adjustments in alliance and other revenues. Although not presented as a gross-to-net adjustment in the below tables, our share of Abilify* and Atripla* (efavirenz 600 mg/emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg) gross-to-net adjustments were $359 million in 2014 and $308 million in 2013. The activities and ending reserve balances for each significant category of gross-to-net adjustments were as follows:

The reconciliation of gross product sales to net product sales by each significant category of gross-to-net adjustments was as follows:



Dollars in Millions	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014			2013
Gross product sales	$	3,311		$	3,392

Other adjustments	(132		)	(123		)
Total Gross-to-Net Adjustments	(504		)	(435		)
Net product sales	$	2,807		$	2,957

Changes in the gross-to-net adjustment rates are primarily a function of changes in sales mix and contractual and legislative discounts and rebates.


•	Medicaid rebates were lower in 2013, primarily due to a reduction in prior period accruals based upon actual invoices received.

•

The U.S. sales return reserves for Plavix* and Avapro*/Avalide* at March 31, 2014 were $145 million and were determined after considering several factors including estimated inventory levels in the distribution channels. In accordance with Company policy, these products are eligible to be returned between six months prior to and twelve months after product expiration. Adjustments to these reserves might be required in the future for revised estimates to various assumptions including actual returns.


•	Other adjustments increased primarily due to higher government rebates in non-U.S. markets.

Estimated End-User Demand

Pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Consent Order described in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we monitor the level of inventory on hand in the U.S. wholesaler distribution channel and outside of the U.S. in the direct customer distribution channel. We are obligated to disclose products with levels of inventory in excess of one month on hand or expected demand, subject to a de minimis exception. Estimated levels of inventory in the distribution channel in excess of one month on hand for these products were not material to our results of operations as of the dates indicated.

Plavix* had 1.1 months of inventory on hand at March 31, 2014 in the U.S. compared to 0.9 months of inventory on hand at December 31, 2013 due to decrease in demand following the loss of exclusivity in 2012.

Reyataz had 1.4 months of inventory on hand internationally at December 31, 2013 compared to 1.1 months of inventory on hand at September 30, 2013. The level of inventory on hand was due to government purchasing patterns in Brazil.

Sustiva Franchise had 1.2 months of inventory on hand internationally at December 31, 2013 compared to 0.6 months of inventory on hand at September 30, 2013. The level of inventory exceeds one month due to decrease in demand following the loss of exclusivity in Europe in November 2013. We expect inventory on hand to decrease over the next few quarters.

Taxol, an oncology product, had 1.2 months of inventory on hand internationally at December 31, 2013 compared to 0.9 months of inventory on hand at September 30, 2013. The increased level of inventory on hand was due to a one-time sale of short-dated inventory in Brazil as a result of a government required labeling change.

In the U.S., we generally determine our months on hand estimates using inventory levels of product on hand and the amount of out-movement provided by our three largest wholesalers and our distributors. Our three largest wholesalers account for approximately 90% of total gross sales of U.S. products. Factors that may influence our estimates include generic competition, seasonality of products, wholesaler purchases in light of increases in wholesaler list prices, new product launches, new warehouse openings by wholesalers and new customer stockings by wholesalers. In addition, these estimates are calculated using third-party data, which may be impacted by their recordkeeping processes.

Our non-U.S. businesses have significantly more direct customers. Limited information on direct customer product level inventory and corresponding out-movement information and the reliability of third-party demand information, where available, varies widely. When direct customer product level inventory, ultimate patient/consumer demand or out-movement data does not exist or is otherwise not available, we have developed a variety of methodologies to estimate such data, including using historical sales made to direct customers and third-party market research data related to prescription trends and end-user demand. Accordingly, we rely on a variety of methods to estimate direct customer product level inventory and to calculate months on hand. Factors that may affect our estimates include generic competition, seasonality of products, direct customer purchases in light of price increases, new product launches, new warehouse openings by direct customers, new customer stockings by direct customers and expected direct customer purchases for governmental bidding situations. As a result, all of the information required to estimate months on hand in the direct customer distribution channel for non-U.S. businesses for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 is not available prior to the filing of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. We will disclose any product with levels of inventory in excess of one month on hand or expected demand for the current quarter, subject to a de minimis exception, in the next quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Other (income)/expense	(208		)	(19		)	**
Total Expenses	$	2,826		$	3,157		(10	)%

** Change is in excess of 100%

Cost of products sold decreased primarily due to the diabetes business divestiture in February 2014 partially offset by higher profit sharing and royalties for other alliances and accelerated depreciation for certain manufacturing facilities. Cost of products sold as a percentage of total revenues decreased from 27.7% to 25.4% in the current period, primarily due to the above factors.

Marketing, selling and administrative expenses and advertising and product promotion expenses both decreased following the diabetes business divestiture in February 2014.

Research and development expenses increased due to a $33 million in process research and development (IPRD) impairment charge following unfavorable clinical trial results and the decision to cease further development and higher upfront licensing payments. These impacts were partially offset by the timing of expenditures.

Intangible assets are tested for impairment whenever current facts or circumstances warrant a review, although IPRD is required to be tested annually. Intangible assets are highly vulnerable to impairment charges, particularly newly acquired assets for recently launched products or IPRD. These assets are initially measured at fair value and therefore a reduction in expectations used in the valuations could potentially lead to an impairment. Some of the more common potential risks leading to impairment include competition, earlier than expected loss of exclusivity, pricing pressures, adverse regulatory changes or clinical trial results, higher development or other operating costs, inability to achieve expected sales levels or synergies, changes in tax laws or other macro-economic changes. We operate in a very dynamic market and regulatory environment in which events can occur causing our expectations to change quickly and thus leading to potential impairment charges.

•	Gain on sale of product lines, businesses and assets was related to the sale of the diabetes business in February 2014. See "Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 3. Alliances" for further details.

•

Pension settlement charges were recognized in the first quarter of 2014, after determining that the annual lump sum payments will likely exceed the annual interest and service costs for certain pension plans, including the primary U.S. pension plan. The charge included the acceleration of a portion of unrecognized actuarial losses. Similar charges will likely occur in the future. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 15. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans” for further details.


•	Other alliance and licensing income increased primarily due to royalties and transitional service fees resulting from the diabetes business divestiture. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 3. Alliances” for further details.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP earnings and related EPS information, are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items that due to their significant and/or unusual nature are evaluated on an individual basis. Similar charges or gains for some of these items have been recognized in prior periods and it is reasonably possible that they could reoccur in future periods. Non-GAAP information is intended to portray the results of our baseline performance which include the discovery, development, licensing, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sale of pharmaceutical products on a global basis and to enhance an investor’s overall understanding of our past financial performance and prospects for the future. For example, non-GAAP earnings and EPS information is an indication of our baseline performance before items that are considered by us to not be reflective of our ongoing results. In addition, this information is among the primary indicators we use as a basis for evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting for future periods. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings or diluted EPS prepared in accordance with GAAP.

FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY, AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our net cash/(debt) position was as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents	$	5,225		$	3,586
Marketable securities – current	1,834			939

Long-term debt	(7,367		)	(7,981		)
Net cash/(debt) position	$	2,969		$	(68	)

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities held in the U.S. were approximately $2.7 billion at March 31, 2014. Most of the remaining $7.9 billion is held primarily in low-tax jurisdictions and is attributable to earnings that are expected to be indefinitely reinvested offshore. Cash repatriations are subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions and may be subject to withholding and additional U.S. income taxes.

In February 2014, we sold to AstraZeneca substantially all of the diabetes business comprising our alliance with them, resulting in $3.3 billion of cash flow during the three months ended March 31, 2014. We also redeemed our 5.45% Notes due 2018 in their entirety. The outstanding principal amount of the notes was $582 million. No commercial paper borrowings were outstanding as of March 31, 2014.

Our investment portfolio includes non-current marketable securities, which are subject to changes in fair value as a result of interest rate fluctuations and other market factors, which may impact our results of operations. Our investment policy places limits on these investments and the amount and time to maturity of investments with any institution. The policy also requires that investments are only entered into with corporate and financial institutions that meet high credit quality standards. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 9. Financial Instruments.”

We currently have two separate $1.5 billion revolving credit facilities from a syndicate of lenders. The facilities provide for customary terms and conditions with no financial covenants and currently expire in September 2017 and July 2018. Each facility is extendable annually by one year on any anniversary date with the consent of the lenders. No borrowings were outstanding under either revolving credit facility at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Additional regulations in the U.S. could be passed in the future, which could further reduce our results of operations, operating cash flow, liquidity and financial flexibility. We continue to monitor the potential impact of the economic conditions in certain European and other countries and the related impact on prescription trends, pricing discounts, creditworthiness of our customers and our ability to collect outstanding receivables from our direct customers. Currently, we believe these economic conditions will not have a material impact on our liquidity, cash flow or financial flexibility.

We have exposure to certain European government-backed entities with a higher risk of default. We monitor them through economic factors including credit ratings, credit-default swap rates and debt-to-gross domestic product ratios in addition to entity specific factors. Our exposure has been limited by factoring receivables and deferring revenues until the collection of cash. Our credit exposures in Europe may increase in the future due to reductions in our factoring arrangements and the ongoing sovereign debt crisis. Our credit exposure to trade receivables in Greece, Portugal, Italy and Spain was $135 million at March 31, 2014, of which approximately 70% was from government-backed entities. Sales of trade receivables in Italy, Portugal and Spain were $128 million in 2014 and $72 million in 2013. Sales of receivables in Japan were $87 million in 2014 and $152 million in 2013. Our factoring agreements do not allow for recourse in the event of uncollectibility and we do not retain interest to the underlying assets once sold.

We continue to manage our operating cash flows by focusing on working capital items that are most directly affected by changes in sales volume, such as receivables, inventories and accounts payable.

Credit Ratings

Moody’s Investors Service long-term and short-term credit ratings are A2 and Prime-1, respectively, and their long-term credit outlook is negative. Standard & Poor’s long-term and short-term credit ratings are A+ and A-1+, respectively, and their long-term credit outlook is stable. Fitch's long-term and short-term credit ratings are A- and F2, respectively, and long term credit outlook is negative. Our credit ratings are considered investment grade. Our long-term ratings reflect the agencies' opinion that we have a low default risk but are somewhat susceptible to adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions. Our short-term ratings reflect the agencies' opinion that we have good to extremely strong capacity for timely repayment.

Cash Flows

The following is a discussion of cash flow activities:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
Dollars in Millions	2014			2013
Cash flow provided by/(used in):
Operating activities	$	617		$	(428	)
Investing activities	2,212			161
Financing activities	(1,192		)	(44		)

Operating Activities

Cash flow from operating activities represents the cash receipts and disbursements from all of our activities other than investing and financing activities. Operating cash flow is derived by adjusting net earnings for noncontrolling interest, non-cash operating items, gains and losses attributed to investing and financing activities and changes in operating assets and liabilities resulting from timing differences between the receipt and payments of cash and when the transactions are recognized in our results of operations. As a result, changes in cash from operating activities reflect the timing of cash collections from customers and alliance partners; payments to suppliers, alliance partners and employees; pension contributions; and tax payments in the ordinary course of business.

The $1.0 billion increase in cash provided by operating activities compared to 2013 was primarily attributable to:


•	Timing of payments with alliance partners, Medicaid rebates and other working capital requirements in both periods (approximately $600 million);


•	Proceeds from the diabetes business divestiture allocated to supply and R&D arrangements in 2014 ($275 million);


•	Lower pension contributions and annual employee bonus payments in 2014 (approximately $200 million); and


•	Lower litigation payments in 2014 (approximately $100 million).

Partially offset by:


•	Higher upfront and contingent milestone proceeds in 2013 ($300 million).

Investing Activities

The $2.1 billion increase in cash provided by investing activities compared to 2013 was primarily attributable to:


•	Proceeds allocated to the sale of the diabetes business were $3.1 billion in 2014. These proceeds were partially invested in marketable securities.

Financing Activities

The $1.2 billion increase in cash used in financing activities compared to 2013 was primarily attributable to:


•	Commercial paper borrowings were $600 million in 2013 (none in 2014).


•	Management periodically evaluates potential opportunities to repurchase certain debt securities and terminate certain interest rate swap contracts prior to their maturity. Cash outflows related to the debt redemption were $676 million in 2014 (none in 2013).


•	Dividend payments were $605 million in 2014 and $580 million in 2013. Dividends declared per common share were $0.36 in 2014 and $0.35 in 2013. Dividend decisions are made on a quarterly basis by our Board of Directors.


•	Cash used to repurchase common stock was $297 million in 2013 (none in 2014).


•	Proceeds from stock option exercises were $85 million in 2014 (excluding $87 million of excess tax benefits) and $215 million in 2013 (excluding $55 million of excess tax benefits). These proceeds will vary from period to period based on fluctuations in the market value of our stock relative to the exercise price of the stock options and other factors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Our critical accounting policies are those that significantly impact our financial condition and results of operations and require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Because of this uncertainty, actual results may vary from these estimates. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (including documents incorporated by reference) and other written and oral statements we make from time to time contain certain “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. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the fact they use words such as “should”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “target”, “may”, “project”, “guidance”, “intend”, “plan”, “believe” and other words and terms of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. One can also identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and involve inherent risks and uncertainties, including factors that could delay, divert or change any of them, and could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from current expectations. These statements are likely to relate to, among other things, our goals, plans and projections regarding our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, market position, product development, product approvals, sales efforts, expenses, performance or results of current and anticipated products and the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings and financial results, which are based on current expectations that involve inherent risks and uncertainties, including internal or external factors that could delay, divert or change any of them in the next several years. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this report and in the 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly under “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” that we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement.

Although we believe we have been prudent in our plans and assumptions, no assurance can be given that any goal or plan set forth in forward-looking statements can be achieved and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For a discussion of our market risk, see “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(a)	The total number of shares purchased and the total number of shares purchased as part of publicly announced programs is different because shares of common stock are withheld by us from employee restricted stock awards in order to satisfy our applicable tax withholding obligations.


(b)	In May 2010, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $3.0 billion of common stock. In June 2012, the Board of Directors increased its authorization for the repurchase of stock by an additional $3.0 billion.
