“The drug pricing provisions of the IRA, which was signed into law in August 2022, began to be implemented in 2023 and implementation efforts will continue over the next several years. In August 2023, the Biden Administration unveiled the first round of medicines subject to the “Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program,” which requires manufacturers of select drugs to engage in a process with the Federal government to set new Medicare prices which would go into effect in 2026. Among the medicines included in the first round is Eliquis. We continue to evaluate the impact of the IRA on our business, operations and financial condition and results as the full effect of the IRA on our business and the pharmaceutical industry remains uncertain. In addition, changes to the Medicaid program or the federal 340B drug pricing program, including legal or legislative developments at the federal or state level with respect to the 340B program, could have a material impact on our business.”

General Impact: “Governmental laws and regulations affecting our operations, including, without limitation, the recently enacted Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, changes in laws and regulations or their interpretation, including, among others, changes in tax laws and regulations internationally and in the U.S”
