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 and the ability of the company's clinical trials to meet expectations;
•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 actors affecting pricing of, reimbursement for, and patient access to pharmaceuticals, or reporting obligations related thereto;
•implementation of our voluntary agreement with the U.S. government related to drug pricing and access;
•developments or uncertainties related to our or competitive products, including as may relate to safety or efficacy concerns;
•dependence on relatively few products or product classes for a significant percentage of our total revenue and a consolidated supply chain;
•the expiration of intellectual property protection for certain of our products and competition from generic and biosimilar 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, regulatory approvals, or other negative outcomes 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, including partnerships related to the use of, or the sharing of, such technologies with third parties, 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 and other global disputes and interruptions, including related to tariffs, trade protection measures, and similar restrictions, international tension, conflicts, regional dependencies, or other costs, uncertainties, and risks related to engaging in business globally;
•fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in interest rates, and inflation or deflation;
•significant and sudden declines or volatility in the trading price of our common stock and market capitalization;
•litigation, investigations, or other similar proceedings involving past, current, or future products, activities, or intellectual property;
3
•changes in tax law and regulation, tax rates, or events that differ from our assumptions related to tax positions;
•regulatory changes, developments, and uncertainty;
•regulatory oversight and actions regarding our operations and products;
•regulatory compliance problems or government investigations;
•risks from the proliferation of counterfeit, misbranded, adulterated, or illegally compounded products;
•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.
More information on factors that could cause our actual results 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-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, 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 and shares in millions, except per-share data, and numbers may not add due to rounding)
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-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. 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. Our commercial organizations market, distribute, and sell the products. The business is also supported by global corporate staff functions. See Note 10 for additional information.
Implementation of New Financial Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, requires disaggregation of specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements and a qualitative description of the remaining expense amounts not separately disaggregated. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, 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, 2027. 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 March 31, | |||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||
| Net product revenue | $ | $ | |||||||||
Collaboration and other revenue | |||||||||||
| Revenue | $ | $ | |||||||||
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 3 for additional information related to our collaborations and other arrangements. Collaboration and other revenue disclosed above includes the revenue resulting from our collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim, as well as the sale of product rights. Substantially all of the remainder of collaboration and other revenue is related to contracts accounted for as contracts with customers.

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 less than 3 percent and 1 percent of U.S. revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Disaggregation of Revenue

Note 3: 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. Boehringer Ingelheim's Jardiance product family, which includes Glyxambi, Synjardy, and Trijardy XR, is the significant product family included in the collaboration.
For the Jardiance product family in the most significant markets, which remains in the collaboration through December 31, 2028, we receive a share of net sales depending on performance of the product, which we recognize as collaboration and other revenue. The following table summarizes our revenue recognized:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||
| Jardiance | $ | $ | |||||||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $250 million and $370 million of one-time benefits for Jardiance, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, we have the right to receive up to $660 million in potential sales-based milestones related to the Jardiance product family in certain markets in 2026.
Ebglyss
We have a license agreement with F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd and Genentech, Inc. (collectively, Roche), which provides us the worldwide development and commercialization rights to lebrikizumab, which is branded and trademarked as Ebglyss. Roche receives tiered royalty payments on worldwide net sales ranging in percentages from high single digits to high teens, which we recognize as cost of sales. As of March 31, 2026, Roche is eligible to receive additional payments from us, including up to $975 million in potential sales-based milestones.
We have a license agreement with Almirall, S.A. (Almirall), under which Almirall licensed the rights to develop and commercialize Ebglyss, for the treatment or prevention of dermatology indications, including, but not limited to, atopic dermatitis, in Europe. We receive tiered royalty payments on net sales in Europe ranging in percentages from low double digits to low twenties, which we recognize as collaboration and other revenue. As of March 31, 2026, we are eligible to receive additional payments up to $1.2 billion in a series of sales-based milestones.
Foundayo
We have a license agreement with Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (Chugai), which provides us the worldwide development and commercialization rights to orforglipron, which is branded and trademarked as Foundayo. In addition to milestone payment rights which are not material, Chugai receives tiered royalty payments on worldwide net sales ranging in percentages from mid single digits to low teens, which we recognize as cost of sales.
11
Note 4: 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 if the products are 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 Combinations
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.
Ventyx Acquisition
Overview of Transaction
In March 2026, we acquired all shares of Ventyx Biosciences, Inc. (Ventyx) for a purchase price of $14.00 per share in cash (or an aggregate of $1.1 billion, net of cash acquired). Ventyx is developing oral therapies for patients with inflammatory-mediated diseases.
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 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 March 4, 2026 | |||||

Verve Acquisition
Overview of Transaction
In July 2025, we acquired all shares of Verve Therapeutics, Inc. (Verve) for a purchase price of $10.50 per share in cash (or an aggregate of $549 million, net of cash acquired), plus one non-tradeable contingent value right (CVR) per share that entitles the holder to receive up to an additional $3.00 per share (or an aggregate of up to approximately $300 million) payable, subject to certain terms and conditions, upon the achievement of a certain specified milestone. Verve is developing genetic medicines for cardiovascular disease.
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 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 July 25, 2025 | |||||

| Cash paid, net of cash acquired | $ | ||||
(1) Acquired IPR&D intangibles primarily relate to VERVE-102 (PCSK9 Editor).
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 $584 million and $1.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Acquired IPR&D charges for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were primarily related to the acquisition of Scorpion Therapeutics, Inc.'s PI3Kα inhibitor program STX-478.
13
Note 5: Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 16.4 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to 20.2 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by the unfavorable tax impact of a non-deductible acquired IPR&D charge in 2025. The 2026 and 2025 effective tax rates were impacted by net discrete tax benefits in each period.
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, prepaid expenses included prepaid taxes of $11.8 billion and $12.9 billion, respectively.
The U.S. examination of tax years 2019-2021 remains ongoing. For tax years 2016-2018, we are pursuing competent authority assistance through the Mutual Agreement Procedure (MAP) process for the pricing of certain intercompany transactions. The resolution of both audit periods will likely extend beyond the next 12 months.

Risk Management and Related Financial Instruments
To manage foreign currency and interest rate risk, we may enter into derivative instruments intended to offset losses and gains on the assets, liabilities, and transactions being hedged. Such instruments are entered into in accordance with documented corporate risk-management policies.
Foreign Currency Risk
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. We manage foreign currency risk primarily through the use of foreign currency debt and foreign currency forward contracts. Our foreign currency-denominated notes designated as accounting hedges had carrying amounts of $3.6 billion and $6.0 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The following table summarizes the aggregate outstanding notional amounts of our foreign currency forward contracts in U.S. dollar equivalent:

Note 8: Contingencies
We are and may become involved in various lawsuits, claims, government investigations and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the course of our business, including patent, environmental, commercial, contractual, licensing, employment, health and safety, consumer protection, pricing, access, consumer, sales and marketing, product liability, insurance, antitrust, securities, and regulatory compliance matters, among others. Such matters may involve inquiries from or disputes with various types of parties, including governments, regulatory agencies, competitors, customers, suppliers, service providers, licensees, employees, or shareholders, among others. We cannot predict the final outcome of these proceedings, and while we intend to vigorously prosecute or defend our position as appropriate, there can be no assurance that we will be successful or obtain any requested relief. Matters often develop over a long period of time and expectations can change as a result of new findings, rulings, appeals, settlements, legal or regulatory changes, or other factors. From time to time we may discontinue or settle and compromise matters as appropriate in our best interest.
Legal proceedings that we believe are significant or could become significant or material are described below. For proceedings in which we are named as defendants, unless otherwise noted, we cannot reasonably estimate the maximum potential exposure or the range of possible loss in excess of amounts accrued; 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 any related estimated insurance recoverables are reflected on a gross basis as liabilities and assets, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets. We accrue for estimated exposures to the extent they are both probable and reasonably estimable based on the then available information. We accrue for certain unfiled product liability claims to the extent we can formulate a reasonable estimate of their exposure. We estimate these exposures based primarily on historical claims experience and data regarding product usage. Legal defense costs expected to be incurred in connection with significant liability loss contingencies are accrued when both probable and reasonably estimable.

Patent Matters
In the course of our business, we are subject to actions and proceedings by third parties that seek to challenge, invalidate, or circumvent our patents and patent applications relating to our products, product candidates, and technologies, including the matter described below.
Emgality Patent Litigation
In September 2018, Teva Pharmaceuticals International GmbH and Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (collectively, Teva) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging that Lilly's launch and continued sales of Emgality infringed various claims in three Teva patents. In November 2022, following a trial, a jury returned a verdict in favor of Teva. In September 2023, the trial court overruled the jury verdict, found all asserted claims invalid, and entered judgment in Lilly's favor. In April 2026, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued an opinion reversing the trial court's finding that the patents are invalid and remanding to the district court, and we recognized a charge related to the matter during the three months ended March 31, 2026. We are assessing next steps.
Environmental Matters
Superfund Matters
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.
Brazil Litigation – Cosmopolis Facility
Labor Attorney Litigation
In March 2008, the state Labor Public Attorney (LPA) filed a public civil action against Eli Lilly do Brasil Limitada (Lilly Brasil) in the Labor Court of Paulinia, State of Sao Paulo, alleging harm to employees and former employees from 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 several remedial and compensatory actions, including health coverage for a class of individuals and certain of their children, and imposing a liquidated award. In December 2025, the superior labor court (TST) significantly reduced the liquidated award. Further appeals are possible.
In July 2019, at the LPA's request, the trial court ordered a freeze of certain of Lilly Brasil's immovable property, which amount was reduced on Lilly's appeal. Both parties have appealed to the TST.
The trial court is continuing to assess the status of Lilly Brasil's compliance with the obligations as to the land.
Pricing Matters
340B Litigation and Investigations
In January 2021, we filed a lawsuit 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 Service Administration (HRSA), and the Administrator of HRSA. The lawsuit challenges HHS's December 2020 advisory opinion that the 340B program requires drug manufacturers to deliver discounts to all contract pharmacies, as well as HHS's December 2020 administrative dispute resolution (ADR) regulations. It seeks declaratory, injunctive, and other related relief. In March 2021, the court preliminarily enjoined the government's use of the ADR process as to us. In May 2021, we amended the complaint to add claims related to a May 2021 letter from HRSA asserting that Lilly's contract pharmacy policy violated the 340B statute. In October 2021, the court granted in part and denied in part the parties' cross-motions for summary judgment. Both parties appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. The appeal remains pending.
We have been named in various ADR petitions, filed between 2021 and 2024, seeking declaratory, injunctive, and/or monetary relief related to the 340B program. In light of the preliminary injunction order described above, these petitions are being held in abeyance as to us.
18
In July 2021, Mosaic Health, Inc. filed a putative class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York against us, Sanofi-Aventis U.S., LLC, Novo Nordisk Inc., and AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals LP, alleging antitrust and unjust enrichment claims related to the defendants' 340B programs. In October 2021, an amended complaint added Central Virginia Health Services, Inc. as a plaintiff. After the district court dismissed the case for failure to state a claim, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit reversed. We filed a petition seeking U.S. Supreme Court review in March 2026. This matter is ongoing.
We have multiple other challenges against HHS and related parties related to interpretations and actions under the 340B program.
Insulin Pricing Litigation
Since 2017, various plaintiffs, including consumers, states and state attorneys general, counties, municipalities, Native American tribes, school districts, wholesalers, third-party payers, and others, have filed lawsuits, including putative class actions, against us, other manufacturers, pharmacy benefit managers, and others, relating to the pricing of insulin medications, and in some cases other diabetes medications, and rebates paid by manufacturers to pharmacy benefit managers. The complaints in the various lawsuits assert a variety of claims, including among others consumer protection, unfair or deceptive trade practices, fraud, false advertising, unjust enrichment, civil conspiracy, racketeering, antitrust, and unfair competition claims. Most cases have been coordinated or consolidated for pretrial proceedings in a multidistrict litigation (MDL) pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The lawsuits are at various stages in the litigation process.
The MDL court has issued various case management and other orders, including but not limited to orders establishing separate tracks for state attorney general claims, putative class actions, and non-class suits by self-funded payers; orders dismissing certain claims; and an order setting a constructive notice date of January 14, 2021 for statute of limitations purposes.
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), along with a complaint seeking a declaratory judgment that the state 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, however, the parties entered into a stipulation providing that the state will not issue any civil investigative subpoena to us under the MCPA until the declaratory judgment action is resolved, and 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. The state's appeal to the Michigan Supreme Court remains pending.
Lilly entered into settlement agreements with New York and Minnesota to resolve allegations relating to insulin pricing in 2023 and 2024, respectively. These agreements involved no monetary payments and no admission of wrongdoing or liability.
Insulin and Other Pricing Investigations
We have been subject to various investigations and received subpoenas, civil investigative demands, information requests, interrogatories, and other inquiries from various governmental entities related to pricing issues, including the pricing and sale of insulin medications, and in some instances certain other diabetes medications, and/or calculations of average manufacturer price and best price. These include subpoenas, civil investigative demands, or information requests from the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, and attorneys general from various states and the District of Columbia.
To the extent the foregoing governmental entities have not filed lawsuits, we are cooperating with the various investigations, subpoenas, and inquiries.
Average Manufacturer Price Litigation
In November 2014, a relator filed a qui tam action in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against us and Takeda Pharmaceuticals America, Inc. The relator's complaint alleged that the defendants should have treated certain credits from distributors as retroactive price increases and included such increases in calculating average manufacturer prices. In August 2022, following a trial, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the relator. In September 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit affirmed, and we recognized a charge related to the matter. In December 2025, the Seventh Circuit denied our petition for rehearing en banc. In March 2026, we filed a petition seeking U.S. Supreme Court review.
19
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. The plaintiffs allege that bladder cancer risk was concealed from them and claim that as a result they and a proposed class of third-party payers are entitled to recover money paid for Actos prescriptions. Our agreement with Takeda calls for Takeda to defend and indemnify us against 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 May 2023, the district court granted class certification. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit subsequently affirmed, and the U.S. Supreme Court denied our petition for certiorari. The matter is ongoing.
Mounjaro, Trulicity, and Zepbound Product Liability Litigation
Since August 2023, various plaintiffs have filed lawsuits against us, Novo Nordisk A/S, and other related entities, alleging various injuries following purported use of incretin medicines, including Mounjaro, Trulicity, and Zepbound. The complaints assert a variety of claims and generally seek damages and/or other relief. Most of these lawsuits in the United States have been coordinated or consolidated for pretrial proceedings in two federal MDLs: one focused on alleged gastrointestinal injuries, and the other relating to claims of non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Both MDLs are pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. There are also similar proceedings pending in Delaware, Indiana, and New Jersey state courts. In addition to the cases in the United States, there are two class action petitions in Israel and two class action petitions in Canada alleging various injuries and claims.
Health Choice Alliance
In October 2019, a relator filed a qui tam lawsuit against us in Texas state court asserting claims under the Texas Medicaid Fraud Prevention Act (TMFPA) based on allegations about certain patient support programs related to three of our products. The relator sought to recover the value of payments by the Texas Medicaid Program for these products, as well as civil penalties and other relief. In August 2025, the relator purported to dismiss the first lawsuit and filed a second lawsuit in a different Texas state court adding the State of Texas as a party and expanding claims under the TMFPA to fifteen of our products. We are opposing the relator's purported dismissal of the first lawsuit.
Research Corporation Technologies, Inc.
In April 2016, Research Corporation Technologies, Inc. (RCT) filed a lawsuit against us in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona asserting damages claims 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 providing for different payments based on various litigation outcomes as determined on appeal. The settlement agreement was not an admission of liability or fault and was subject to conditions. Pursuant to the 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. In February 2026, the Ninth Circuit reversed and remanded the case with instructions to enter summary judgment for Lilly. Under the settlement agreement, Lilly owes no further payments to RCT.

Note 9: Equity
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased $2.3 billion of shares associated with our share repurchase program. As of March 31, 2026, we had $8.6 billion remaining under our $15.0 billion share repurchase program authorized in December 2024. We retire shares once we repurchase them.

Note 10: Segment Information
We operate as a single reportable 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. Our 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 nature of our operations and the financial information regularly reviewed by the chief executive officer, in his capacity as the chief operating decision maker (CODM), for the purposes of evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting for future periods.
Our purpose is to unite caring with discovery to create medicines that make life better for people around the world. Our long-term success is significantly dependent on our ability to research and develop innovative medicines. The CODM uses consolidated net income to assess performance of our company, ensuring that we are investing in future research and development while efficiently delivering products to patients. The CODM allocates research and development resources based upon several factors, including the likelihood of technical success, unmet medical needs, and the viability of commercial success. A significant component of the CODM’s decision-making process is to ensure a balanced investment in our research and development portfolio to drive near-term success and sustain for the long-term.
The following table summarizes information for our single reportable segment, including significant segment expenses:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition
(Tables present dollars in millions, except per-share data, and numbers may not add due to rounding)
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-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, 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, updates to our clinical development pipeline, and other matters affecting our company and industry.
Financial Results
The following table summarizes certain financial information:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | Percent Change | ||||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||||||||
| Revenue | $ | 19,799 | $ | 12,729 | 56 | ||||||||||||
| Net income | 7,396 | 2,759 | 168 | ||||||||||||||
| Earnings per share - diluted | 8.26 | 3.06 | 170 | ||||||||||||||
Revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, driven primarily by increased volume, partially offset by lower realized prices. The increased volume and lower realized prices during the three months ended March 31, 2026 were primarily driven by Mounjaro and Zepbound.
Net income and earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased primarily due to higher gross margin and lower acquired IPR&D charges, partially offset by higher research and development expenses and marketing, selling, and administrative expenses.
See "Results of Operations" for additional information.
23
Clinical Development Pipeline Updates
Our long-term success depends on our ability to continually discover or acquire, develop, and commercialize innovative medicines. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition—Executive Overview—Clinical Development Pipeline” in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for select new molecular entities (NMEs) and new indication line extension (NILEX) products in clinical trials or that were submitted for regulatory review or received regulatory approval in the U.S., European Union (EU), or Japan. The following reflects certain developments since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025:
| Compound | Development | ||||
Orforglipron (Foundayo) | The FDA approved orforglipron for treatment of obesity. | ||||
| Announced that a Phase 3 trial for orforglipron for type 2 diabetes met the primary endpoint. | |||||
| Baricitinib | A Phase 3 trial was initiated for baricitinib for type 1 diabetes. | ||||
| Eloralintide | A Phase 3 trial was initiated for eloralintide incretin add-on for obesity. | ||||
| A Phase 3 trial was initiated for eloralintide for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). | |||||
| A Phase 3 trial was initiated for eloralintide for osteoarthritis (OA) pain. | |||||
| Retatrutide | Announced that a Phase 3 trial for retatrutide for type 2 diabetes met the primary endpoint. | ||||
| Brenipatide | A Phase 3 trial was initiated for brenipatide for major depressive disorder. | ||||
Sofetabart mipitecan(1) | A Phase 3 trial was initiated for sofetabart mipitecan for platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer. | ||||
(1) The FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for sofetabart mipitecan for the treatment of certain patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. Breakthrough Therapy designation is designed to expedite the development and review of potential medicines that are intended to treat a serious condition when preliminary clinical evidence indicates that the treatment may demonstrate substantial improvement on a clinically significant endpoint(s) over already available therapies.
Other Matters
Trends Affecting Pharmaceutical Pricing, Reimbursement, and Access and Certain Other Regulatory Developments
Global concern over access to, and affordability of, pharmaceutical products continues to drive debate and action, as well as cost containment efforts by governmental authorities and scrutiny of pricing and access disparities. Cost containment 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.
Reforms, initiatives, and other actions, including those that may stem from political initiatives, periods of uneven economic growth or downturns, or as a result of inflation or deflation, trade and other global disputes and interruptions including related to tariffs, trade protection measures, and similar restrictions, 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 cost, pricing, reimbursement, and access for our products.
In the first quarter of 2026, we finalized voluntary agreements with the U.S. government in which, among other arrangements, we agreed to lower Medicaid and certain other drug prices for U.S. patients and to launch new medicines with a more balanced pricing approach across developed nations. Under the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge program (Bridge Program), Medicare beneficiaries will have access to discounted Lilly obesity medicines by July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2027, and individual state Medicaid programs will have the option to expand access to these medicines. We continue to engage with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services on long-term Medicare access to obesity medicines. The uptake from this expanded access is unknown. Moreover, the outcome of these arrangements and broader U.S. policy efforts to align domestic pharmaceutical pricing with international benchmarks from countries with competing healthcare cost containment priorities is uncertain and could negatively impact our pricing strategies, product demand or access, or competitive positioning across global markets, and may result in reduced revenue in certain markets.
Other policies, regulations, legislation, or enforcement, including those proposed or pursued by lawmakers, regulators, and other authorities in the U.S. and worldwide, have and may continue to adversely impact our business and consolidated results of operations.
24
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) requires HHS to effectively set prices for certain single-source drugs and biologics reimbursed under Medicare Part B and Part D. Currently, these government prices generally apply beginning at nine years (for medicines approved under a New Drug Application) or thirteen years (for medicines approved under a Biologics License Application) following FDA approval or licensure for the molecule. 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 January 2026, HHS selected Trulicity and Verzenio as additional medicines subject to government-set prices to be effective in 2028. Given our product portfolio, we expect other significant products will be selected in future years. The IRA has, and will continue to, meaningfully influence our business strategies and those of our competitors and could significantly impact our business and consolidated results of operations.
The U.S. and other countries have imposed or reached alignment on tariffs. In some cases, imposed tariffs have been paused but may come into effect quickly and unpredictably. While pharmaceuticals are exempt from certain of these tariffs, such exemptions may be terminated or may not apply to any future tariffs. The precise impact of tariffs, trade protection measures, and other restrictions depend on their ultimate scope, timing, and other factors. If enacted, additional restrictions could result in supply disruptions or delays, further increase costs, or otherwise have a negative impact on our business. Given the nature of pharmaceutical regulation and commercialization, we may not be able to share the burden of increased costs from tariffs and related impacts to any meaningful degree.
Private payers and pharmacy benefit managers in the U.S. continue to significantly impact the market for pharmaceuticals through negotiation of access, manufacturer price or rebate concessions and pharmacy reimbursement rates. Restrictive or unfavorable pricing, coverage, or reimbursement determinations for our medicines or product candidates by governments, regulatory agencies, courts, or private actors have and may continue to adversely impact our business and consolidated results of operations. In addition, we are engaged in litigation and investigations related to the 340B program, access to insulin, pricing, product safety, and other matters that 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.
Incretin Medicines
Mounjaro and Zepbound accounted for 65 percent of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and we expect cardiometabolic health products will continue to represent a significant and growing portion of our business, revenue, and prospects. In the first quarter of 2026, we finalized drug pricing agreements with the U.S. government, including Medicare access to discounted Lilly obesity medicines under the Bridge Program.
In April 2026, we received U.S. FDA approval for Foundayo (orforglipron) for the treatment of obesity. Internationally, we have submitted orforglipron for the treatment of obesity and launched Mounjaro in all major markets. To support anticipated demand for our current and prospective products, we have undertaken significant manufacturing expansion initiatives. Additional capacity is expected to become operational over the next several years.
We expect our near-term financial performance will be impacted by, among other factors, the timing of additional potential regulatory approvals for orforglipron, as well as the demand and pace of uptake in new incretin channels and markets, including in U.S. Medicare for Zepbound and Foundayo. More generally, incretin volume fluctuations due to channel dynamics or demand can have a disproportionate impact on our results of operations in any given period. Longer term, the durability of our cardiometabolic health product offerings and sustainability of our growth and prospects will depend on our ability to maintain or strengthen our competitive position as the therapeutic landscape evolves and to deliver further innovations that provide sufficient value to sustain our growth momentum.
25
We continue to see the production, marketing, and sale of counterfeit, misbranded, adulterated, and mass-compounded incretins. These practices may impact patient safety and undermine regulatory drug approval processes. While the FDA confirmed in late 2024 that the previous shortage of tirzepatide had ended and that compounding pharmacies are required to cease mass production, we cannot guarantee adequate regulation or compliance. 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 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. Additionally, we are subject to increasing tax disclosure obligations globally that could heighten our audit risk. Changes to existing U.S. and foreign tax laws and increased scrutiny by tax authorities in the U.S. and other jurisdictions could have a material adverse impact on our future consolidated results of operations and cash flows.
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.
Continued regulatory focus on business combinations in our industry, including by the Federal Trade Commission and competition authorities in Europe and other jurisdictions, could continue to delay, jeopardize, or increase the costs of our business development activities and may negatively impact our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
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. See "Business" in Part I, Item 1 and "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and Notes 4 and 9 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information and risks and uncertainties that could impact our business and operations, including the matters described within this Executive Overview.

In the U.S. for the three months ended March 31, 2026, the volume increase was primarily driven by Zepbound and Mounjaro, and the lower realized prices were primarily driven by Zepbound and Taltz.
Outside the U.S. for the three months ended March 31, 2026, the volume increase was driven by Mounjaro, and the lower realized prices were primarily driven by the addition of Mounjaro to the National Reimbursed Drug List (NRDL) in China.
The following table summarizes our revenue, including net product revenue and collaboration and other revenue, by product for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

(1) Tirzepatide is marketed for obesity under the brand name Zepbound in Canada, Japan, and the U.S.
(2) Jardiance revenue includes Glyxambi, Synjardy, and Trijardy XR.
Revenue of Mounjaro increased 59 percent in the U.S. during the three months ended March 31, 2026, reflecting strong demand, partially offset by lower realized prices. Lower realized prices in the U.S. were partially offset by a favorable one-time adjustment to estimates for rebates and discounts during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Revenue outside the U.S. during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $4.4 billion compared to $1.2 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by volume growth, partially offset by lower realized prices driven by the addition of Mounjaro to the NRDL in China.
Revenue of Zepbound increased 79 percent in the U.S. during the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily driven by strong demand, partially offset by lower realized prices, including previously announced reductions in cash pay prices. Lower realized prices were partially offset by a favorable one-time adjustment to estimates for rebates and discounts during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Gross Margin, Costs, and Expenses

| Three Months Ended March 31, | Percent Change | ||||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||||||||
| Gross margin | $ | 16,222 | $ | 10,504 | 54 | ||||||||||||

Gross margin as a percent of revenue decreased 0.6 percentage points for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily driven by lower realized prices.
Research and development expenses increased 28 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2026, driven by continued investments in our early and late-stage portfolio.
Marketing, selling, and administrative expenses increased 19 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily driven by promotional efforts supporting ongoing and planned launches.
Acquired IPR&D charges for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were primarily related to the acquisition of Scorpion Therapeutics, Inc.'s PI3Kα inhibitor program STX-478. See Note 4 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information.
The effective tax rate was 16.4 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to 20.2 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by the unfavorable tax impact of a non-deductible acquired IPR&D charge in 2025. The 2026 and 2025 effective tax rates were impacted by net discrete tax benefits in each period.
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-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
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 meaningfully higher capital expenditures in the near term.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $5.3 billion as of March 31, 2026, compared with $7.3 billion as of December 31, 2025. Refer to the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows for additional information on the significant sources and uses of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
In addition to our cash and cash equivalents, we held total investments of $3.3 billion and $2.9 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, we had approximately $850 million of unfunded commitments to invest in venture capital funds, which we anticipate will be paid over a period of up to 10 years. See Note 7 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information.
As part of our business development activities in 2026, we have entered into acquisition agreements, subject to closing conditions. Potential amounts payable at closing for these pending acquisitions would be up to approximately $12 billion.
As of March 31, 2026, total debt was $43.4 billion, an increase of $0.9 billion compared with $42.5 billion as of December 31, 2025. See Note 7 to the consolidated condensed financial statements for additional information.
As of March 31, 2026, we had a total of $10.1 billion of unused committed bank credit facilities, $10.0 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 or other sources should be adequate to fund short-term borrowing needs.
28
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased $2.3 billion of shares under our $15.0 billion share repurchase program authorized in December 2024. As of March 31, 2026, we had $8.6 billion remaining under this program.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we paid dividends of $1.5 billion, or $1.73 per share, to our shareholders.
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 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-K for the year ended December 31, 2025) as of March 31, 2026, and concluded that they were effective.
(b)Changes in Internal Controls. During the first quarter of 2026, 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.
