In late July 2026 Biogen posted a modest 3% year‑over‑year revenue rise to $2.7 billion, driven by its multiple‑sclerosis drugs and newer products such as Skyclarys and Leqembi. A week later Amgen reported stronger Q2 performance, with revenue up 9% to $10.1 billion and earnings per share beating expectations, while Gilead Sciences announced an 8% increase in product sales to $7.8 billion, led by double‑digit growth in its HIV portfolio.

On 4 August 2026 Amgen confirmed its 9% sales growth, posted adjusted earnings of $6.29 per share, and raised its full‑year earnings outlook to $22.30‑$23.50 per share on revenue of $38.2‑$39.4 billion. The company also disclosed the discontinuation of its obesity drug candidate AMG 513. Gilead reiterated its adjusted loss of $6.75 per share, better than forecasts, and highlighted continued strength in HIV, liver‑disease, and oncology segments.

Other biotech peers reported mixed results: Geron recorded a Q2 loss of $16.7 million on $57.5 million revenue, driven by its oncology drug RYTELO; Rigel Pharmaceuticals earned $0.88 per share, beating expectations, with $67 million in commercial revenue; Precigen posted a modest EPS beat of $0.05 on $55 million revenue; and TG Therapeutics saw BRIUMVI sales jump 64% to $227.7 million. The series of reports underscores a broadly healthy earnings environment for major U.S. biotech firms in the second quarter of 2026.
