Fourth-Quarter Reported Results

In Q4 2022, worldwide revenue was $7.30 billion, a decrease of 9% compared with Q4 2021, driven by a 4% decrease from the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates, a 3% decrease due to lower realized prices, and a 2% decrease in volume. Excluding COVID-19 antibodies, revenue in Q4 2022 increased 5% and total worldwide volume increased 13%. Key growth products, consisting of Verzenio®, Mounjaro®, Jardiance, Taltz®, Trulicity®, Retevmo®, Emgality®, Cyramza®, Tyvyt® and Olumiant®, grew 21% and represented 70% of revenue for Q4 2022.

Revenue in the U.S. decreased 10% to $4.66 billion, driven by a 10% decrease in volume with prices remaining relatively flat. Excluding revenue from COVID-19 antibodies, revenue in the U.S. increased by 11%, primarily driven by volume from key growth products.

Revenue outside the U.S. decreased 6% to $2.64 billion, driven by a 12% decrease from the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and a 7% decrease due to lower realized prices, partially offset by a 12% increase in volume. The lower realized prices were primarily driven by the impact of government pricing in China from the volume-based procurement (VBP) for Humalog® and the National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL) formulary for certain products, particularly Verzenio and Tyvyt. The increase in volume outside the U.S. was largely driven by key growth products and approximately $130 million of one-time revenue associated with the sale of the company's rights to Alimta in Korea and Taiwan.

Gross margin decreased 3% to $5.75 billion in Q4 2022 compared with Q4 2021. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 78.8%, an increase of 4.4 percentage points compared with Q4 2021. The increase in gross margin percent was primarily driven by lower sales of COVID-19 antibodies, partially offset by lower realized prices and increased expenses due to inflation and logistics costs.

In Q4 2022, research and development expenses increased 5% to $2.00 billion, or 27% of revenue, driven by higher development expenses for late-stage assets, partially offset by the favorable impact of foreign exchange rates and lower development expenses for COVID-19 antibodies.

Marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased 3% to $1.64 billion in Q4 2022, primarily driven by costs associated with launches of new products and indications, partially offset by the favorable impact of foreign exchange rates.

In Q4 2022, the company recognized acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) and development milestone charges of $240.1 million. In Q4 2021, the company recognized acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges of $437.7 million, primarily related to a business development transaction with Foghorn Therapeutics Inc.

In Q4 2022, the company recognized asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges of $38.1 million, primarily related to acquisition and integration costs associated with the closing of our acquisition of Akouos, Inc. In Q4 2021, the company recognized asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges of $104.5 million, primarily related to impairment of an intangible asset from our acquisition of Loxo Oncology.

Operating income in Q4 2022 was $1.84 billion compared with $1.92 billion in Q4 2021. Operating margin percent, defined as operating income as a percent of revenue, was 25.1%, which includes a negative impact of approximately 330 basis points attributed to acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges.

Other income (expense) was income of $260.0 million in Q4 2022 compared with expense of $77.3 million in Q4 2021. The increase in other income (expense) was primarily driven by net gains on investments in equity securities in Q4 2022 compared with net losses on investments in equity securities in Q4 2021.

The effective tax rate was 7.6% in Q4 2022 compared with 6.2% in Q4 2021. The effective tax rate in Q4 2022 reflects the favorable tax impact of the implementation of the provision in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the 2017 Tax Act) that requires capitalization and amortization of research and development expenses for tax purposes starting in 2022 and a net discrete tax benefit, partially offset by the tax impact of the mix of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions. The effective tax rate in Q4 2021 reflected a net discrete tax benefit and the tax impact of acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges.

In Q4 2022, net income and earnings per share (EPS) were $1.94 billion and $2.14, respectively, compared with $1.73 billion and $1.90 in Q4 2021. Q4 2022 EPS was inclusive of $0.23 of acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges compared with $0.39 in Q4 2021.

Fourth-Quarter Non-GAAP Measures

On a non-GAAP basis, Q4 2022 gross margin decreased 3% to $5.88 billion compared with Q4 2021. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 80.5%, an increase of 4.4 percentage points compared with Q4 2021. The increase in gross margin percent was primarily driven by lower sales of COVID-19 antibodies, partially offset by lower realized prices and increased expenses due to inflation and logistics costs.

Operating income on a non-GAAP basis decreased $160.5 million, or 7%, to $2.00 billion in Q4 2022 compared with Q4 2021. Operating margin percent was 27.4% on a non-GAAP basis, which includes a negative impact of approximately 330 basis points attributed to acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges.

The effective tax rate on a non-GAAP basis was 7.3% in Q4 2022 compared with 8.5% in Q4 2021. The lower effective tax rate for Q4 2022 reflects the favorable tax impact of the implementation of the 2017 Tax Act and a higher net discrete tax benefit compared to the same period in 2021, partially offset by the tax impact of the mix of earnings in higher tax jurisdictions.

On a non-GAAP basis, Q4 2022 net income and EPS were $1.89 billion and $2.09, respectively, compared with $1.97 billion and $2.17 in Q4 2021. Q4 2022 non-GAAP EPS was inclusive of $0.23 of acquired IPR&D and development milestone charges compared with $0.39 in Q4 2021.

Trulicity

For Q4 2022, worldwide Trulicity revenue was $1.94 billion, an increase of 3% compared with Q4 2021. U.S. revenue increased 5% to $1.53 billion, driven by increased demand, partially offset by lower realized prices. Revenue outside the U.S. was $409.8 million, a decrease of 6%, driven by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and to a lesser extent, lower realized prices, partially offset by increased demand. On a constant currency basis, revenue outside the U.S. increased 8%. Lilly experienced intermittent delays in fulfilling certain U.S. Trulicity orders during Q4 2022. Actions to manage strong demand across the company's incretin portfolio, including measures to minimize existing patient impact in international markets, also affected volume.

Verzenio

For Q4 2022, worldwide Verzenio revenue increased 100% compared with Q4 2021 to $808.0 million. U.S. revenue was $552.7 million, an increase of 119%, primarily driven by increased demand. Revenue outside the U.S. was $255.3 million, an increase of 69%, driven by increased demand, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and lower realized prices primarily due to the impact of the NRDL formulary in China.

Taltz

For Q4 2022, worldwide Taltz revenue increased 9% compared with Q4 2021 to $707.8 million. U.S. revenue increased 9% to $512.0 million, driven by increased demand, partially offset by lower realized prices. Revenue outside the U.S. increased 11% to $195.8 million, driven by increased volume, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and lower realized prices.

Jardiance

The company's worldwide Jardiance revenue for Q4 2022 was $612.3 million, an increase of 42% compared with Q4 2021. U.S. revenue increased 51% to $363.1 million, primarily driven by increased demand and to a lesser extent, an increased Q4 2022 royalty from Boehringer Ingelheim for exceeding certain annual thresholds. Revenue outside the U.S. was $249.2 million, an increase of 30%, primarily driven by increased demand, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates.

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

Humalog

For Q4 2022, worldwide Humalog revenue decreased 9% compared with Q4 2021 to $548.3 million. U.S. revenue increased 8% to $336.0 million, driven by higher realized prices due to changes in estimates for rebates and discounts in both periods. Revenue outside the U.S. decreased 27% to $212.3 million, driven by lower realized prices due to the impact of VBP in China and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates.

Alimta

For Q4 2022, worldwide Alimta revenue decreased 46% compared with Q4 2021 to $236.6 million. U.S. revenue decreased 83% to $53.2 million, driven by decreased demand due to generic competition. Revenue outside the U.S. increased 63% to $183.4 million, driven by approximately $130 million of one-time revenue associated with the sale of the company's rights to Alimta in Korea and Taiwan, partially offset by decreased demand due to generic competition, lower realized prices, and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates.

The company expects continued volume and revenue decline for Alimta as a result of generic competition due to the loss of patent exclusivity in major markets.

Olumiant

For Q4 2022, worldwide Olumiant revenue decreased 33% compared with Q4 2021 to $205.8 million. U.S. revenue decreased 50% to $43.5 million, driven by a decline in utilization for COVID-19 treatment, partially offset by increased utilization for the treatment of alopecia areata. Revenue outside the U.S. was $162.3 million, a decrease of 26%, driven by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and a decline in utilization for COVID-19 treatment.

Emgality

For Q4 2022, Emgality generated worldwide revenue of $175.6 million, an increase of 9% compared with Q4 2021. U.S. revenue was $132.0 million, an increase of 9%, driven by increased demand and higher realized prices, partially offset by wholesaler buying patterns. Revenue outside the U.S. was $43.7 million, an increase of 8%, primarily driven by increased volume, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates and lower realized prices.

Mounjaro

For Q4 2022, worldwide Mounjaro revenue was $279.2 million. U.S. revenue was $256.7 million. Mounjaro launched in the U.S. for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in June 2022.

Tyvyt

For Q4 2022, the company's Tyvyt revenue in China was $57.5 million, a decrease of 26% compared with Q4 2021, driven by the impact of the NRDL formulary in China as well as increased competitive pressures and impacts from COVID-19 disruptions.

Tyvyt is part of the company's alliance with Innovent. Lilly reports total sales of Tyvyt made by Lilly as revenue, with payments made to Innovent for its portion of the gross margin reported as cost of sales. Lilly also reports as revenue a portion of the gross margin for Tyvyt sales made by Innovent. 

2023 Financial Guidance

The company has updated its tax rate and EPS guidance and reaffirmed all other elements of its 2023 financial guidance. The previous tax rate guidance of approximately 16% for 2023 assumed deferral or repeal of the 2017 Tax Act provision that requires capitalization of research and development expenses. Such a deferral or repeal did not occur in 2022. Given the uncertainty as to whether any change to this provision will be enacted in 2023, the company has updated the tax rate guidance to be approximately 13% and 2023 EPS guidance has been increased to the range of $7.90 to $8.10 on a reported basis and $8.35 to $8.55 on a non-GAAP basis. The company's 2023 financial guidance reflects adjustments shown in the reconciliation table below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain financial information for 2022 and 2021 is presented on both a reported and a non-GAAP basis. Some numbers in this press release may not add due to rounding.

Numbers may not add due to rounding.

The table above reflects only line items with non-GAAP adjustments.

(a)

The company uses non-GAAP financial measures that differ from financial statements reported in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company's non-GAAP measures adjust reported results to exclude amortization of intangibles and other items that are typically highly variable, difficult to predict, and of a size that could have a substantial impact on the company's reported operations for a period. The company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors. Among other things, they may help investors evaluate the company's ongoing operations. They can also assist in making meaningful period-over-period comparisons and in identifying operating trends that would otherwise be masked or distorted by the items subject to the adjustments. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including to allocate resources and to evaluate results relative to incentive compensation targets. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
