(b)The amounts for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 represent intangible asset impairment charges associated with our Biopharma segment, composed of: (i) $3.8 billion in impairments of IPR&D assets, associated with a Phase 3 study for sigvotatug vedotin for the second line treatment of metastatic non-squamous NSCLC, reflecting unfavorable clinical trial results, and (ii) $525 million for Oxbryta (voxelotor) developed technology rights, after engaging with the FDA in July 2026 to discuss their assessment of data and analyses, and it was determined there was no viable pathway to return Oxbryta to the market in the U.S. The amount for the first six months of 2025 primarily included an intangible asset impairment charge associated with our Biopharma segment of $210 million for a Phase 2 indefinite-lived out-licensed asset that was discontinued by our out-licensing partner.
(c)See Note 2C.
(d)See Notes 1D and 16D in our 2025 Form 10-K and Note 7A.

(a)The fair value amount reflects the remaining fair value for the asset that has been impaired as of the date of impairment, as this asset is not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. See Note 1E in our 2025 Form 10-K.
(b)Reflects intangible assets written down to fair value in 2026. Fair value was determined using the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method, also known as the discounted cash flow method. We started with a forecast of all the expected net cash flows for the asset and then applied an asset-specific discount rate to arrive at a net present value amount. Some of the more significant estimates and assumptions inherent in this approach include: the amount and timing of the projected net cash flows, which includes the expected impact of competitive, legal and/or regulatory factors on the product; and assumptions about the probability of technical and regulatory success (PTRS) of ongoing clinical trials, the discount rate, which seeks to reflect the various risks inherent in the projected cash flows; and the tax rate, which seeks to incorporate the geographic diversity of the projected cash flows.
