Note 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the SEC and U.S. GAAP for interim reporting. Under those rules, certain footnotes and other financial information that are normally required for annual financial statements can be condensed or omitted. The Company is responsible for the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the 2016 Form 10-K. Refer to the Summary of Abbreviated Terms at the end of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for terms used throughout the document.

Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Accordingly, the results and trends in these unaudited consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of full year operating results. The preparation of financial statements requires the use of management estimates, judgments and assumptions. The most significant assumptions are estimates used in determining sales rebate and return accruals; legal contingencies; income taxes; determining if an acquisition or divestiture is a business or an asset; and pension and postretirement benefits. Actual results may differ from estimates.

Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The consolidated statements of cash flows previously presented interest rate swap contract terminations and issuance of common stock as separate line items within cash flows from financing activities which are now presented as components of other financing activities. The reclassifications provide a more concise financial statement presentation and additional information is disclosed in the notes if material.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Share-based Payment Transactions
Amended guidance for share-based payment transactions was adopted in the first quarter of 2017. Net excess tax benefits of $23 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were recognized prospectively as a reduction of tax expense rather than capital in excess of par value of stock. Net excess tax benefits are also presented as an operating cash flow rather than a financing cash flow, and cash payments to tax authorities in connection with shares withheld for statutory tax withholding requirements are presented as a financing cash flow rather than an operating cash flow. The changes in cash flow presentation were applied retrospectively and increased operating cash flows and decreased financing cash flows by $105 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and $186 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Income Tax Accounting for Intra-entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory
Amended guidance on income tax accounting for intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory was early adopted in the first quarter of 2017 on a modified retrospective approach. The amended guidance requires tax consequences of these transfers be recognized in the period the transfer takes place. Net reductions to prepaid and deferred tax assets pertaining to pre-2017 internal transfers of intellectual property of $787 million were adjusted through retained earnings as a cumulative effect of an accounting change which will reduce the annual tax expense by $86 million beginning in 2017. In addition, the tax consequences of additional internal transfers of intellectual property that may occur in the future will be included in income tax expense upon transfer and not amortized in subsequent periods.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Presentation of Net Periodic Pension and Postretirement Benefits
In March 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance requiring all net periodic benefit components for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans other than service costs to be recorded outside of income from operations (other income). The guidance is effective in 2018 on a retrospective basis. The Company expects that annual cost of products sold; marketing, selling and administrative; and research and development expenses will increase by approximately $150 million in the aggregate with a corresponding offset in other income.

Note 2. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

BMS operates in a single segment engaged in the discovery, development, licensing, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sale of innovative medicines that help patients prevail over serious diseases. A global research and development organization and supply chain organization are responsible for the discovery, development, manufacturing and supply of products. Regional commercial organizations market, distribute and sell the products. The business is also supported by global corporate staff functions. The determination of a single segment is consistent with the financial information regularly reviewed by the chief executive officer for purposes of evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets and planning and forecasting future periods.

Note 3. ALLIANCES

BMS enters into collaboration arrangements with third parties for the development and commercialization of certain products. Although each of these arrangements is unique in nature, both parties are active participants in the operating activities of the collaboration and are exposed to significant risks and rewards depending on the commercial success of the activities. BMS may either in-license intellectual property owned by the other party or out-license its intellectual property to the other party. These arrangements also typically include research, development, manufacturing and/or commercial activities and can cover a single investigational compound or commercial product or multiple compounds and/or products in various life cycle stages. The rights and obligations of the parties can be global or limited to geographic regions. We refer to these collaborations as alliances and our partners as alliance partners. Products sold through alliance arrangements in certain markets include Opdivo, Eliquis, Orencia, Sprycel, Yervoy, Empliciti, Sustiva (Atripla*) and certain other brands.

Selected financial information pertaining to our alliances was as follows, including net product sales when BMS is the principal in the third-party customer sale for products subject to the alliance. Expenses summarized below do not include all amounts attributed to the activities for the products in the alliance, but only the payments between the alliance partners or the related amortization if the payments were deferred or capitalized.

1,194

(a)
Includes unamortized upfront, milestone and other licensing proceeds, revenue deferrals attributed to Atripla* and undelivered elements of diabetes business divestiture proceeds. Amortization of deferred income (primarily related to alliances) was $39 million and $143 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
    
Specific information pertaining to each of our significant alliances is discussed in our 2016 Form 10-K, including their nature and purpose, the significant rights and obligations of the parties and specific accounting policy elections. Significant developments and updates related to alliances during the six months ended June 30, 2017 are set forth below.

AstraZeneca
BMS received $100 million from AstraZeneca as additional contingent consideration for the diabetes business divestiture upon achievement of a regulatory approval milestone in the first quarter of 2017 (included in other income).

F-Star Alpha
In the first quarter of 2017, BMS discontinued development of FS102 (an anti-HER2 antibody fragment) which was in Phase I development for the treatment of breast and gastric cancer. BMS will not exercise its option to purchase F-Star Alpha which was previously consolidated by BMS as a variable interest entity. As a result, an IPRD charge of $75 million was included in R&D expense and attributed to noncontrolling interest in the first quarter of 2017.

Note 4. ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURES AND LICENSING ARRANGEMENTS

Acquisitions
Flexus
In the second quarter of 2017, a $100 million milestone was achieved and paid to former stockholders of Flexus as additional contingent consideration following the commencement of a Phase II clinical study of an anti-cancer compound, IDO inhibitor. The additional consideration was included in R&D expense as the Flexus acquisition in 2015 was accounted for as an asset acquisition.
Cardioxyl
In the second quarter of 2017, a $100 million milestone was achieved and paid to former stockholders of Cardioxyl as additional contingent consideration following the commencement of a Phase II clinical study of a cardiovascular compound, Nitroxyl Donor. The additional consideration was included in R&D expense as the Cardioxyl acquisition in 2015 was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

Divestitures
SK Biotek
In the second quarter of 2017, BMS agreed to sell its small molecule active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing operations in Swords, Ireland to SK Biotek. The divestiture includes the transfer of the facility, the majority of employees at the site, inventories and certain third-party contract manufacturing obligations. The purchase price is expected to be approximately $150 million subject to inventory levels on the date of closing. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017 subject to SK Biotek's receipt of certain environmental permits and other customary closing conditions and will be accounted for as a sale of a business. Net assets of approximately $150 million were accounted for as held-for-sale as of June 30, 2017, consisting primarily of inventories and property, plant and equipment, and were included in prepaid expenses and other. The assets were reduced to their estimated relative fair value after considering the purchase price resulting in an impairment charge of $127 million that was included in cost of products sold in the second quarter of 2017. SK Biotek will provide certain manufacturing services for BMS through 2022. Revenues and pretax earnings related to this operation were not material in 2017 and 2016 (excluding the impairment charge).

BMS expanded its strategic collaboration with CytomX to discover novel therapies using CytomX’s proprietary Probody platform in the second quarter of 2017. As part of the original May 2014 collaboration to discover, develop and commercialize Probody therapeutics, BMS selected four oncology targets, including CTLA-4. Pursuant to the expanded agreement, CytomX will grant BMS exclusive worldwide rights to develop and commercialize Probody therapeutics for up to eight additional targets. BMS paid CytomX $75 million for the rights to the initial four targets which was expensed as R&D prior to 2017. BMS paid $200 million to CytomX for access to the additional targets which was included in R&D expense in the second quarter of 2017. BMS will also reimburse CytomX for certain research costs over the collaboration period, pay up to $448 million upon achievement of contingent development, regulatory and sales milestone events for each collaboration target and future royalties if a product is approved and commercialized.
Biogen
BMS out-licensed to Biogen exclusive rights to develop and commercialize BMS-986168, an anti-eTau compound in development for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, in the second quarter of 2017. Biogen paid $300 million to BMS which was included in other income in the second quarter of 2017 as BMS has no further performance obligations as part of the agreement. BMS is also entitled to contingent development, regulatory and sales based milestone payments of up to $410 million if achieved as well as future royalties if the product is ultimately approved and commercialized. BMS originally acquired the rights to this compound in 2014 through its acquisition of iPierian. Biogen will assume all of BMS’s remaining obligations to the former stockholders of iPierian.
Roche
BMS out-licensed to Roche exclusive rights to develop and commercialize BMS-986089, an anti-myostatin adnectin in development for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, in the second quarter of 2017. Roche paid $170 million to BMS which was included in other income in the second quarter of 2017 as BMS has no further performance obligations as part of the agreement. BMS will also be entitled to contingent development and regulatory milestone payments of up to $205 million if achieved and future royalties if the product is ultimately approved and commercialized.

Note 6. RESTRUCTURING

In October 2016, the Company announced a restructuring plan to evolve and streamline its operating model and expects to incur charges in connection with employee workforce reductions and early site exits. The charges are expected to be incurred through 2020, range between $1.5 billion to $2.0 billion and consist of employee termination benefit costs, contract termination costs, plant and equipment accelerated depreciation and impairment charges and other site shutdown costs. Cash outlays in connection with these actions are expected to be approximately 40% to 50% of the total charges. Charges of $536 million have been recognized for these actions since the announcement ($225 million and $447 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively). These charges include an impairment charge for the manufacturing operations in Swords, Ireland discussed in "—Note 4. Acquisitions, Divestitures and Licensing Arrangements." Restructuring charges are recognized upon meeting certain criteria, including finalization of committed plans, reliable estimates and discussions with local works councils in certain markets.

Other restructuring charges recognized prior to the above actions were primarily related to specialty care transformation initiatives designed to create a more simplified organization across all functions and geographic markets. In addition, accelerated depreciation and other charges were incurred in connection with the expected early exits of a manufacturing site in Ireland and R&D site in the U.S.

Employee workforce reductions were approximately 1,000 and 200 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, across all geographic regions for manufacturing, marketing, selling, administrative and R&D personnel.

%

The effective tax rate is lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35% which is primarily attributable to undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries in low tax jurisdictions that have been considered or are expected to be indefinitely reinvested offshore. These undistributed earnings primarily relate to operations in Switzerland, Ireland and Puerto Rico. If these undistributed earnings are repatriated to the U.S. in the future, or if it were determined that such earnings are to be remitted in the foreseeable future, additional tax provisions would be required. Due to complexities in the tax laws and assumptions that would have to be made, it is not practicable to estimate the amounts of income taxes that would have to be provided. Reforms to U.S. tax laws related to foreign earnings have been proposed and if adopted, may increase taxes, which could reduce the results of operations and cash flows. BMS operates under a favorable tax grant in Puerto Rico not scheduled to expire prior to 2023.

Jurisdictional tax rates and other tax impacts attributed to R&D charges, divestiture transactions and other discrete pretax items increased the effective tax rate by 3.5% and 4.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, including non-deductible R&D asset acquisition charges and goodwill allocated to business divestitures. The tax impact for discrete items are reflected immediately and are not considered in estimating the annual effective tax rate.

The adoption of the amended guidance for intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory and share-based payment transactions reduced the effective tax rate by 2.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2017. Refer to "—Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Standards" for additional information.

BMS is currently under examination by a number of tax authorities which have proposed or are considering proposing material adjustments to tax positions for issues such as transfer pricing, certain tax credits and the deductibility of certain expenses. It is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2017 could decrease in the range of approximately $255 million to $315 million in the next twelve months as a result of the settlement of certain tax audits and other events. The expected change in unrecognized tax benefits may result in the payment of additional taxes, adjustment of certain deferred taxes and/or recognition of tax benefits. It is also reasonably possible that new issues will be raised by tax authorities which may require adjustments to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits; however, an estimate of such adjustments cannot reasonably be made at this time.

Cash Flow Hedges — The notional amount of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts was primarily attributed to the euro ($705 million) and Japanese yen ($239 million) at June 30, 2017. BMS terminated forward starting interest rate swap contracts in the first quarter of 2017 with an aggregate notional value of $750 million. The proceeds and related gain were not material.

Net Investment Hedges — Non-U.S. dollar borrowings of €950 million ($1,063 million) are designated to hedge euro currency exposures of the net investment in certain foreign affiliates.

Fair Value Hedges — The notional amount of fixed-to-floating interest rate swap contracts terminated was $500 million in 2016 generating proceeds of $43 million (including accrued interest).

Refer to "—Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Standards" for additional information.
    
BMS has a stock repurchase program authorized by its Board of Directors allowing for repurchases in the open market or through private transactions, including plans established in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The stock repurchase program does not have an expiration date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Treasury stock is recognized at the cost to reacquire the shares. Shares issued from treasury are recognized utilizing the first-in first-out method.

In February 2017, BMS executed accelerated share repurchase agreements to repurchase an aggregate $2 billion of common stock. The agreements were funded through a combination of debt and cash. In February 2017, an initial delivery of approximately 28.7 million shares of BMS common stock, representing approximately 80% of the notional amount of the agreements, was received by BMS and included in treasury stock. Upon settlement of the accelerated share repurchase agreements in May 2017, BMS received an additional 7.8 million shares determined using the volume-weighted average price of BMS common stock during the term of the transaction.
