Company Report

Amgen's Diversified Portfolio and Growing Cardiovascular Focus Support a Wide Moat

Amgen has its roots in providing supportive-care products to kidney disease and cancer patients, but it has expanded its portfolio to include innovative drugs in therapeutic areas ranging from cardiology to immunology. Despite headwinds from biosimilar and branded competition, Amgen's newer blockbusters like cholesterol-lowering drug Repatha defend its wide moat and keep free cash flow above 30% of sales in our forecast.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Amgen's pipeline had been stale since the launch of Prolia/Xgeva, but cholesterol drug Repatha revived our enthusiasm for the firm's research engine. Blincyto and Tezspire also look differentiated.

Bears

Biosimilars have been on the market in Europe since 2007 but have had a larger impact on Amgen since 2019 as US exposure intensifies. Pressure on Prolia/Xgeva intensifies in 2026.

Company Profile

Amgen is a leader in biotechnology-based human therapeutics. Flagship drugs include red blood cell boosters Epogen and Aranesp, immune system boosters Neupogen and Neulasta, and Enbrel and Otezla for inflammatory diseases. Amgen introduced its first cancer therapeutic, Vectibix, in 2006 and markets bone-strengthening drugs Prolia/Xgeva (approved 2010) and Evenity (2019). The acquisition of Onyx Pharmaceuticals bolstered the firm's therapeutic oncology portfolio with Kyprolis. Recent launches include Repatha (cholesterol-lowering), Aimovig (migraine), Lumakras (lung cancer), and Tezspire (asthma). The 2023 Horizon acquisition brought several rare-disease drugs, including thyroid eye disease drug Tepezza. Amgen also has a growing biosimilar portfolio.
