First-Quarter Reported Results

In Q1 2024, worldwide revenue was $8.77 billion, an increase of 26% compared with Q1 2023, driven by increases of 16% in volume and 10% due to higher realized prices. The volume increase was primarily driven by growth from Mounjaro, Zepbound®, Verzenio and Jardiance, partially offset by declines in Trulicity®. Strong demand for the company's incretin medicines outpaced supply increases. The company continues to expand manufacturing capacity, with the most significant production increases in 2024 expected in the second half of the year. Higher realized prices were driven by Mounjaro in the U.S. as Mounjaro saw net price positively impacted by savings card dynamics compared with Q1 2023. In the second half of 2024, these savings card dynamics should cease to have a notable effect on realized price comparisons to base periods, as the $25 non-covered benefit expired June 30, 2023. New Products(i) revenue grew by $1.79 billion to $2.39 billion in Q1 2024, led by Mounjaro and Zepbound. Growth Products(ii) revenue increased 2% to $4.66 billion in

  1. Lilly defines New Products as select products launched since 2022, which currently consist of Ebglyss, Jaypirca, Mounjaro, Omvoh and Zepbound.
  2. Lilly defines Growth Products as select products launched prior to 2022, which currently consist of Cyramza, Emgality, Jardiance, Olumiant, Retevmo, Taltz, Trulicity, Tyvyt and Verzenio

Q1 2024 as growth led by Verzenio, Jardiance, Taltz® and Emgality® was largely offset by lower Trulicity sales.

.

Revenue in the U.S. increased 28% to $5.69 billion, driven by a 16% increase in realized prices and a 12% increase in volume. The higher realized prices in the U.S. were driven by Mounjaro. The increase in U.S. volume was driven by Zepbound, Mounjaro and Verzenio, partially offset by a decrease in Trulicity. Exceptionally strong demand for the company's incretin medicines led to wholesaler backorders for these products at quarter end. The company expects tight supply to continue as growing production volume is outpaced by demand. In the short to mid-term, Lilly expects sales growth for incretin medicines to primarily be a function of the quantity the company can produce and ship.

Revenue outside the U.S. increased 22% to $3.07 billion, driven by a 23% increase in volume, partially offset by a 1% decrease due to lower realized prices. The increase in volume outside the U.S. was primarily driven by Mounjaro, Verzenio, Jardiance and Tyvyt®.

Gross margin increased 33% to $7.09 billion in Q1 2024. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 80.9%, an increase of 4.3 percentage points. The increase in gross margin percent was primarily driven by higher realized prices, favorable product mix, and, to a lesser extent, improvements in the cost of production.

In Q1 2024, research and development expenses increased 27% to $2.52 billion, or 29% of revenue, driven by higher development expenses for late-stage assets and additional investments in early-stage research, as well as a charge of approximately $75 million in Q1 2024 associated with the termination of the Verzenio prostate cancer program.

Marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased 12% to $1.95 billion in Q1 2024, primarily driven by promotional efforts associated with ongoing and future launches, as well as increased compensation and benefit costs.

In Q1 2024, the company recognized acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) charges of $110.5 million compared with $105.0 million in Q1 2023.

The effective tax rate was 11.6% in Q1 2024 compared with 12.1% in Q1 2023, driven by a larger net discrete tax benefit reflected in Q1 2024 compared with the same period in 2023.

In Q1 2024, net income and earnings per share (EPS) were $2.24 billion and $2.48, respectively, compared with net income of $1.34 billion and EPS of $1.49 in Q1 2023. EPS in both periods included $0.10 of acquired IPR&D charges.

First-QuarterNon-GAAP Measures

On a non-GAAP basis, Q1 2024 gross margin increased 33% to $7.23 billion. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 82.5%, an increase of 4.1 percentage points. The increase in gross margin percent was primarily driven by higher realized prices, favorable product mix, and, to a lesser extent, improvements in the cost of production.

The effective tax rate on a non-GAAP basis was 11.9% in Q1 2024 compared with 12.8% in Q1 2023, driven by a larger net discrete tax benefit reflected in Q1 2024 compared with the same period in 2023.

On a non-GAAP basis, Q1 2024 net income and EPS were $2.34 billion and $2.58, respectively, compared with net income of $1.46 billion and EPS of $1.62 in Q1 2023. Non-GAAP EPS in both periods included $0.10 of acquired IPR&D charges.

Mounjaro

For Q1 2024, worldwide Mounjaro revenue was $1.81 billion compared with $568.5 million in Q1 2023. U.S. revenue was $1.52 billion compared with $536.4 million in Q1 2023, reflecting higher realized prices due to decreased utilization of savings card programs as access continued to expand, as well as increased demand. In the second half of 2024, these savings card dynamics should cease to have a notable effect on realized price comparisons to base periods, as the $25 non-covered benefit expired June 30, 2023. Revenue outside the U.S. increased to $286.2 million compared with $32.0 million in Q1 2023, driven by volume. Worldwide volume growth was linked to available supply.

Trulicity

For Q1 2024, worldwide Trulicity revenue decreased 26% compared with Q1 2023 to $1.46 billion. U.S. revenue decreased 30% to $1.08 billion, driven by decreased sales volume primarily due to supply constraints and competitive dynamics. Revenue outside the U.S. decreased 13% to $374.4 million, driven by decreased volume and, to a lesser extent, lower realized prices. In addition to the factors affecting U.S. volume, international markets continue to be impacted by actions Lilly has taken to manage demand amid tight supply, including measures to minimize impact to existing patients.

Verzenio

For Q1 2024, worldwide Verzenio revenue increased 40% compared with Q1 2023 to $1.05 billion. U.S. revenue was $638.2 million, an increase of 38%, primarily driven by increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $412.1 million, an increase of 42%, primarily driven by increased demand.

Jardiance

For Q1 2024, the company's worldwide Jardiance revenue increased 19% compared with Q1 2023 to $686.5 million. U.S. revenue was $368.2 million, an increase of 12%, driven by increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $318.3 million, an increase of 28%, driven by increased volume.

8

Jardiance is part of the company's alliance with Boehringer Ingelheim. Lilly reports as revenue royalties received on net sales of Jardiance.

Taltz

For Q1 2024, worldwide Taltz revenue increased 15% compared with Q1 2023 to $604.1 million. U.S. revenue increased 11% to $347.1 million, driven by increased demand and higher realized prices. Revenue outside the U.S. increased 20% to $257.0 million, driven by increased demand.

Humalog

For Q1 2024, worldwide Humalog revenue increased 17% compared with Q1 2023 to $538.7 million. U.S. revenue was $338.3 million, an increase of 25%, driven by higher realized prices primarily due to changes to estimates for rebates and discounts, partially offset by decreased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $200.4 million, an increase of 6%, driven by increased volume.

Zepbound

For Q1 2024, U.S. Zepbound revenue was $517.4 million. Similar to other Lilly incretin medicines, volume growth was linked to available supply. Zepbound launched in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with obesity or overweight with weight-related comorbidities in November 2023.

2024 Financial Guidance

2024 full-year revenue guidance increased by $2.0 billion to the range of $42.4 billion to $43.6 billion, primarily driven by the strong performance of Mounjaro and Zepbound and greater visibility into the company's production expansion for the remainder of the year.

The ratio of (Gross Margin - OPEX) / Revenue, where OPEX is defined as the sum of research and development expenses and marketing, selling and administrative expenses, is now expected to be in the range of 32% to 34% on a reported basis and 33% to 35% on a non-GAAP basis. Both ratios reflect the $2.0 billion increase in revenue guidance.

9

Other income (expense) guidance remains unchanged at a range of ($500) to ($400) million of expense on both a reported and non-GAAP basis. The reported guidance reflects net gains in Q1 2024 on investments in equity securities.

Tax rate guidance also remains unchanged at approximately 14% on both a reported and non- GAAP basis.

Based on these changes, EPS guidance increased to the range of $13.05 to $13.55 on a reported basis and $13.50 to $14.00 on a non-GAAP basis. The company's 2024 financial guidance reflects adjustments shown in the reconciliation table below.
