Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, N.J., USA Announces Second-Quarter 2025 Financial Results
"Earlier this month, we were pleased to announce our pending acquisition of Verona Pharma, which augments our portfolio and pipeline and is another example of acting decisively when science and value align,' said Robert M. Davis, chairman and chief executive officer. 'Today, we announced a multiyear optimization initiative that will redirect investment and resources from more mature areas of our business to our burgeoning array of new growth drivers, further enable the transformation of our portfolio, and drive our next chapter of productive, innovation-driven growth. With these actions, I am confident that we are well positioned to generate near- and long-term value for our shareholders and, most importantly, deliver for our patients.'
Financial Summary
For the second quarter of 2025, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) earnings per share (EPS) assuming dilution was $1.76 and non-GAAP EPS was $2.13. GAAP and non-GAAP EPS in the second quarter of 2025 include a charge of $0.07 per share for an upfront payment to Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (Hengrui Pharma) upon closing of a license agreement. Non-GAAP EPS excludes acquisition- and divestiture-related costs, costs related to restructuring programs, and income and losses from investments in equity securities. Non-GAAP EPS in the second quarter of 2025 also excludes tax benefits primarily resulting from favorable audit adjustments. Non-GAAP EPS in the second quarter of 2024 also excludes a tax benefit due to a reduction in reserves for unrecognized income tax benefits, resulting from the expiration of the statute of limitations for assessments related to the 2019 federal tax return year.
Year-to-date results can be found in the attached tables.
Second-Quarter Sales Performance
The following table reflects sales of the Company's top products and significant performance drivers.
Second-Quarter Expense, EPS and Related Information
The table below presents selected expense information.
GAAP Expense, EPS and Related Information
Gross margin was 77.5% for the second quarter of 2025 compared with 76.8% for the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to the favorable impact of product mix, partially offset by higher restructuring costs and inventory write-offs.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $2.6 billion in the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 3% compared with the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower administrative, restructuring and promotional costs.
Research and development (R&D) expenses were $4.0 billion in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 16% compared with the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $200 million charge for an upfront payment made in the second quarter of 2025 for a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma, increased clinical development spending, higher compensation and benefit costs, and higher restructuring costs.
Other (income) expense, net, was $7 million of income in the second quarter of 2025 compared with $42 million of expense in the second quarter of 2024.
The effective tax rate of 11.4% for the second quarter of 2025 includes a 2.9 percentage point favorable impact due to tax benefits primarily resulting from favorable audit adjustments.
GAAP EPS was $1.76 for the second quarter of 2025 compared with $2.14 for the second quarter of 2024. The decrease reflects increased operating expenses driven by higher restructuring costs and research and development spending, a charge related to the closing of a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma, unfavorable tax impacts, and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
Non-GAAP Expense, EPS and Related Information
Non-GAAP gross margin was 82.2% for the second quarter of 2025 compared with 80.9% for the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to the favorable impact of product mix, partially offset by higher inventory write-offs.
Non-GAAP SG&A expenses were $2.6 billion in the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 2% compared with the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower administrative and promotional costs.
Non-GAAP R&D expenses were $4.0 billion in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 15% compared with the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $200 million charge for an upfront payment made in the second quarter of 2025 for a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma, increased clinical development spending, and higher compensation and benefit costs.
Non-GAAP other (income) expense, net, was $54 million of expense in the second quarter of 2025 compared with $108 million of expense in the second quarter of 2024.
The non-GAAP effective tax rate was 15.0% for the second quarter of 2025.
Non-GAAP EPS was $2.13 for the second quarter of 2025 compared with $2.28 for the second quarter of 2024. The decrease reflects increased operating expenses driven by higher research and development spending, a charge related to the closing of a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma, and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP net income and EPS is provided in the table that follows.
Planned Acquisition of Verona Pharma
On July 9, 2025, the Company furthered its science-led business development strategy by announcing an agreement under which the Company, through a subsidiary, will acquire Verona Pharma plc (Verona Pharma) for $107 per American Depository Share, each of which represents eight Verona Pharma ordinary shares, for a total transaction value of approximately $10 billion. Through the acquisition, the Company will add Ohtuvayre, a first-in-class selective dual inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 and 4 (PDE3 and PDE4), to its growing cardio-pulmonary pipeline and portfolio.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Ohtuvayre in June 2024 for the maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adult patients. It is the first novel inhaled mechanism for the treatment of COPD in more than 20 years. The transaction is anticipated to close in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Pipeline and Portfolio Highlights
In the second quarter, the Company continued to advance its broad and diverse pipeline with multiple regulatory and clinical milestones.
In oncology, the FDA approved KEYTRUDA as part of a therapy regimen for the treatment of certain adult patients with resectable locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), based on results from the Phase 3 KEYNOTE-689 trial. This approval is the first perioperative anti-PD-1 treatment regimen for adults with resectable locally advanced HNSCC whose tumors express PD-L1 (CPS ≥1). In addition, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) in Japan approved WELIREG as monotherapy for the treatment of adults with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease-associated tumors, and for adults with unresectable or metastatic RCC that has progressed after chemotherapy.
At the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting, the Company announced new research across more than 25 types of cancer in multiple treatment settings. Data were presented for several candidates, including MK-1084, an investigational oral selective KRAS G12C inhibitor, and from the Company's pipeline of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). The Company also presented data from Phase 3 trials evaluating new combination regimens with KEYTRUDA, and longer-term data for studies of KEYTRUDA and WELIREG, with the KEYTRUDA studies including people with earlier stages of cancer.
The Company announced results from the Phase 3 KEYNOTE-B96 trial (also known as ENGOT-ov65) evaluating KEYTRUDA plus chemotherapy, which met its primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS) for the treatment of patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer whose tumors express PD-L1 and in all comers, as well as a secondary endpoint of overall survival (OS) in patients whose tumors express PD-L1. In addition, a pre-specified interim analysis of the Phase 3 KEYNOTE-937 study found that compared to placebo, KEYTRUDA did not show a statistically significant improvement in the primary endpoint of recurrence-free survival for certain patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Also, a pre-specified interim analysis of the Phase 3 LEAP-014 trial found that KEYTRUDA plus Lenvima, in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy, did not show a statistically significant improvement in its primary endpoint of OS compared to KEYTRUDA plus chemotherapy for the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
In vaccines and infectious diseases, the Company received FDA approval of ENFLONSIA for the prevention of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) lower respiratory tract disease in newborns and infants who are born during or entering their first RSV season. ENFLONSIA is the first and only RSV preventive option administered to infants using the same dose regardless of weight. The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) also recommended ENFLONSIA for the prevention of RSV in infants younger than 8 months of age born during or entering their first RSV season. In addition, the Company announced initiation of the MOBILIZE-1 Phase 3 trial evaluating V181, an investigational single-dose quadrivalent vaccine for the prevention of dengue disease.
In addition, the FDA accepted a New Drug Application (NDA) for doravirine/islatravir, an investigational, once-daily, oral, two-drug regimen for the treatment of adults with virologically suppressed HIV-1 based on the Phase 3 MK-8591A-051 and MK-8591A-052 trials. The FDA set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date of April 28, 2026. The Company also announced the initiation of the EXPrESSIVE Phase 3 trials for MK-8527, its investigational once-monthly oral candidate for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).
In cardiovascular disease, the Company announced positive topline results from Phase 3 CORALreef HeFH and CORALreef AddOn, the first two of three Phase 3 clinical trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of enlicitide decanoate, an investigational, oral proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor being evaluated for the treatment of adults with hyperlipidemia already on lipid-lowering therapies, including at least a statin. In both trials, enlicitide demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful reductions in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. If approved, it would be the first marketed oral PCSK9 inhibitor.
In addition, the FDA granted priority review for a new supplemental Biologics License Application for WINREVAIR seeking approval to update the U.S. product label based on compelling results from the Phase 3 ZENITH trial. The FDA has set a PDUFA date of Oct. 25, 2025. The Company also provided an update on the Phase 3 HYPERION study evaluating WINREVAIR in recently diagnosed adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). In the study, WINREVAIR added on top of background therapy within 12 months after initial diagnosis of PAH demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in the risk of clinical worsening events when compared to placebo. Further, the MHLW in Japan approved sotatercept for the treatment of adults with PAH under the trademark AIRWIN. It is the first activin signaling inhibitor therapy for PAH approved in Japan.
In the Animal Health business, the FDA approved BRAVECTO QUANTUM, an injectable formulation of BRAVECTO for dogs for the treatment and persistent killing of fleas and ticks. In addition, the European Commission (EC) approved NUMELVI tablets for dogs, a once-daily, second-generation Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, indicated for the treatment of pruritus associated with allergic dermatitis including atopic dermatitis and treatment of clinical manifestations of atopic dermatitis.
Notable recent news releases on the Company's pipeline and portfolio are provided in the table that follows. Visit the News Releases section of the Company's website to read the releases*.
New Multiyear Optimization Initiative, Which Includes a Restructuring Program
The Company launched a new multiyear optimization initiative to enable the transformation of its portfolio by generating an expected $3.0 billion in annual cost savings from productivity actions, which will be fully reinvested to support new product launches and its pipeline across multiple therapeutic areas.
In July 2025, as part of this initiative, the Company approved a new restructuring program, in which it expects to eliminate certain administrative, sales and R&D positions. The Company will, however, continue to hire employees into new roles across strategic growth areas of the business. In addition, the Company will reduce its global real estate footprint and continue to optimize its manufacturing network, aligning the geography of its global manufacturing to its customers and reflecting changes in the Company's business.
The Company anticipates cumulative pretax costs related to the program to be approximately $3.0 billion. For the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded charges in its GAAP results of $649 million related to this restructuring program.
The Company expects the actions under the restructuring program to result in annual cost savings of approximately $1.7 billion, which will be substantially realized by the end of 2027. This restructuring program is part of the multiyear optimization initiative expected to achieve $3.0 billion in annual cost savings by the end of 2027.
Manufacturing and R&D Investment
The Company continued to make long-term investments in its U.S. manufacturing and R&D capabilities. This includes the start of construction for a $1.0 billion, 470,000-square-foot state-of-the-art biologics center of excellence in Wilmington, Delaware, which will serve as a launch and commercial production facility and the primary U.S. manufacturing site for KEYTRUDA. In addition, the Company announced an $895 million expansion of its Animal Health manufacturing facility in De Soto, Kansas; the 200,000-square-foot facility will increase capacity for Animal Health vaccines and biologic products.
Full-Year 2025 Financial Outlook
The following table summarizes the Company's full-year financial outlook.
The Company has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP other (income) expense, net, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, given it cannot predict with reasonable certainty the amounts necessary for such a reconciliation, including intangible asset impairment charges, legal settlements, and income and losses from investments in equity securities either owned directly or through ownership interests in investment funds, without unreasonable effort. These items are inherently difficult to forecast and could have a significant impact on the Company's future GAAP results.
The Company now expects full-year 2025 sales to be between $64.3 billion and $65.3 billion, including a revised negative impact of foreign exchange of approximately 0.5% at mid-July 2025 exchange rates.
The Company now expects its full-year non-GAAP effective income tax rate to be between 15.0% and 16.0%.
The Company now expects its full-year non-GAAP EPS to be between $8.87 and $8.97, including a revised negative impact of foreign exchange of approximately $0.15 per share. This revised non-GAAP EPS range continues to reflect the impacts of a one-time charge of $200 million (recorded in the second quarter of 2025) for an upfront payment made in connection with the closing of a license agreement with Hengrui Pharma and the one-time charge of $300 million (to be recorded in the third quarter of 2025) related to a payment to LaNova for the completion of the technology transfer for MK-2010, which will impact EPS by approximately $0.16 in the aggregate. In 2024, non-GAAP EPS of $7.65 was negatively impacted by a net charge of $1.28 per share related to certain asset acquisitions, licensing agreements and collaborations.
The financial outlook does not include the anticipated impact of the announced acquisition of Verona Pharma.
Consistent with past practice, the financial outlook does not assume additional significant potential business development transactions.
The $200 million of costs previously included in the Company's financial outlook related to the impact of tariffs is unchanged pending the outcome of additional potential government actions.

Why Bloom Energy Plunged Today Before Recovering
Key Points Bloom's energy server technology is a great fit for AI data centers. Last night's earnings report was strong, with Bloom beating revenue expectations. However, the stock had already rallied on a big announcement with Oracle last week, leading to profit taking following earnings. 10 stocks we like better than Bloom Energy › Shares of on-premises electricity generator provider Bloom Energy (NYSE: BE) plunged initially today, down 13% at one point, before recovering to a 1.4% decline as of 3:26 p.m. ET. Bloom reported second-quarter earnings last night, beating revenue estimates but missing the mark on the adjusted (non-GAAP) earnings-per-share (EPS) line. Of course, Bloom is a growth stock, so the top line matters more. However, since the stock had already had a massive run following recent deals with big data center and utility names, investors appeared to take profits on the less-than-absolutely perfect quarter. Management also merely "reaffirmed" 2025 guidance, without raising numbers. Bloom Energy is blooming at AI data centers In Q2, revenue climbed 19.5% to $401.2 million, beating expectations, while adjusted losses per share narrowed from $0.27 to $0.18, missing expectations of $0.08. Bloom management also said it was looking forward to doubling its production capacity, which will no doubt entail higher costs. But that capacity growth appears to be backed up by strong demand. Bloom's energy server product can produce electricity from either natural gas or hydrogen via a chemical process without combustion, thereby lowering emissions. The technology appears to be on the brink of much wider adoption, given the need for reliable, cleaner electricity at AI data centers. Last week, Bloom announced a direct partnership with Oracle (NYSE: ORCL) in which Bloom will supply on-site power to Oracle data centers within 90 days. The announcement sent the stock flying, and CEO KR Sridhar noted the partnership may pave the way for more direct deals with AI hyperscalers. On the conference call with analysts, Sridhar noted the Oracle deal is "the first time we as a company are directly interacting with the hyperscaler as our are the primary source, and it is load following. So it will prove that we can load follow at large scale." Earnings seem to be a "sell-the-news" event Bloom has exciting AI-fueled growth potential, but since the stock had already rocketed higher last week on the Oracle announcement, it appears investors were eager to take profits on the less-than-perfect quarter. However, the bounce back following today's initial plunge indicates there weren't really any red flags to speak of. Valuation would be the biggest risk here, as Bloom's stock is quite expensive. Shares trade for 5.5 times sales and 80 times this year's adjusted earnings estimates. Should you buy stock in Bloom Energy right now?

A: Duke Austin, President and CEO: We are confident in our growth trajectory, with a history of 20% plus growth over the past decade. Our strategic acquisitions and investments in technology and infrastructure position us well for future growth, particularly in the AI and power demand sectors. Q: How has the increased workload affected your bidding process, and are you able to be more selective with projects?
