"Execution of our important clinical programs continued at an aggressive pace, and we took meaningful actions to defend our intellectual property. Today we raised our adjusted EPS guidance for the year despite a significant increase in R&D investment. This reflects our confidence in our ongoing business performance." Product Sales Performance During the second quarter, total product sales increased 14 percent to $3.49 billion from $3.07 billion in the second quarter of 2005. Sales in the United States totaled $2.86 billion, an increase of 13 percent versus $2.53 billion for the second quarter of 2005. International sales increased 17 percent to $630 million versus $540 million for the second quarter of 2005.

Worldwide sales of Aranesp(R) (darbepoetin alfa darbepoetin alfa Aranesp Pharmacologic class: Recombinant human erythropoietin Therapeutic class: Hematopoietic Pregnancy risk category C FDA Boxed Warning) increased 26 percent to $1,055 million in the second quarter of 2006 versus $837 million during the second quarter of 2005. This growth was driven by demand. U.S. Aranesp sales increased 33 percent to $713 million versus $536 million in the prior year, driven by both segment growth and continued overall share gains. International Aranesp sales increased 14 percent to $342 million versus $301 million in the second quarter of 2005.Sales of EPOGEN E·po·gen A trademark for the drug epoetin alfa. epoetin alfa Epogen, Eprex (CA) (UK), Procrit Pharmacologic class: Recombinant human erythropoietin Therapeutic class: (R) (Epoetin alfa e·po·e·tin al·fa n.

Combined sales of Neulasta and NEUPOGEN in the United States were $785 million in the second quarter of 2006 versus $698 million in the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 12 percent. U.S. Neulasta sales continue to benefit from a label extension based on new clinical data demonstrating the value of first cycle use in moderate risk chemotherapy regimens Chemotherapy regimens are often identified with acronyms, identifying the agents used in combination. Unfortunately, the letters used are not consistent across regimens, and in some cases (for example, "BEACOPP") the same letter is used to represent two different treatments. .

Worldwide sales of Sensipar(R) (cinacalcet HCl) increased 119 percent to $79 million in the second quarter of 2006 versus $36 million during the second quarter of 2005. This growth was also driven by demand including the impact of a 4.9 percent U.S. price increase in April. Operating Expense Operating Expense The essential things that a company must purchase in order to maintain business. Notes: For example, the payment of employees wages are an operating expense. Also known as OPEX. Analysis on an Adjusted Basis: Cost of sales decreased 7 percent to $492 million in the second quarter of 2006 versus $530 million in the second quarter of 2005, primarily driven by lower royalty expenses and to a lesser extent, production efficiencies. Royalty expenses were lower than the prior year driven by the expiration EXPIRATION. Cessation; end. As, the expiration of, a lease, of a contract, or statute. 2. In general, the expiration of a contract puts an end to all the engagements of the parties, except to those which arise from the non- fulfillment of obligations created of certain contractual royalty obligations on Neulasta and NEUPOGEN sales and the acquisition of certain royalty rights on sales of ENBREL and EU Neulasta and NEUPOGEN sales. For the remainder of 2006, Amgen expects cost of sales as a percent of sales to remain lower than 2005. Research and development (R&D) expenses increased 29 percent to $729 million in the second quarter versus $564 million in the second quarter of 2005. The second quarter increase was primarily due to higher staff levels and increased funding necessary to support clinical trials for our late-stage programs, including clinical material and manufacturing costs. Second quarter 2006 expenses fully reflect the impact of the Abgenix acquisition.

EPS compared to the second quarter of 2005 and higher interest income. Amgen continues to expect its 2006 full year adjusted tax rate to be lower than in 2005 due to increased manufacturing in Puerto Rico Puerto Rico (pwār`tō rē`kō), island (2005 est. pop. 3,917,000), 3,508 sq mi (9,086 sq km), West Indies, c.1,000 mi (1,610 km) SE of Miami, Fla. and potential tax settlements. During the quarter, Amgen repurchased 13 million shares at a total cost $876 million, with year to date repurchases totaling 59.7 million shares at a total cost of $4.2 billion.

This is usually an indication that the company's management thinks the shares are undervalued. . Capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2006 were approximately $233 million versus $205 million in the second quarter of 2005 as the Company continued its manufacturing capacity and site expansions in Puerto Rico and other locations, and the ERP program and investments in the ERP program.

Amgen Inc.
Notes to Reconciliation of GAAP Earnings to "Adjusted" Earnings --
Excluding Stock Option Expense
(In millions, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
(1) To exclude the impact of stock option expense in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123R.
Effective January 1, 2006, Amgen adopted SFAS No. 123R and
elected not to apply this new accounting standard to its prior
years' financial statements. Prior to such date, Amgen disclosed
in the notes to its financial statements what the related expense
and impact to earnings per share (EPS) would have been (i.e., on
a pro forma basis) had it elected to expense the fair value of
employee stock options in accordance with SFAS No. 123. For the
three and six months ended June 30, 2005, the total pro forma
pre-tax expense for all employee stock options in accordance with
SFAS No. 123 was $66 million and $137 million, respectively,
resulting in dilution to GAAP EPS of 5 cents and 11 cents per
share, respectively, on a pro forma basis.
(2) To exclude the ongoing, non-cash amortization of the intangible
asset, XenoMouse(R) technology, acquired with the Abgenix, Inc.
("Abgenix") acquisition. The annual non-cash charge for 2006 is
currently estimated to be approximately $48 million, pre-tax.
(3) To exclude the incremental compensation provided to certain
Abgenix employees associated with their retention. Substantially
all related amounts have been incurred.
(4) To exclude the incremental compensation provided to certain
Tularik Inc. ("Tularik") employees associated with their
retention. The total estimated remaining costs of such
incremental compensation is approximately $7 million, pre-tax.
(5) To exclude the non-cash expense associated with writing off the
acquired in-process research and development related to the
Abgenix acquisition.
(6) To exclude the ongoing, non-cash amortization of acquired
intangible assets, primarily ENBREL, related to the Immunex
Corporation ("Immunex") acquisition. The annual non-cash charge
for 2006 is currently estimated to be approximately $347 million,
pre-tax.
(7) To exclude the impact of legal settlements incurred, net of
amounts previously accrued, primarily related to settling a
patent legal proceeding.
(8) To exclude the net gain realized on the termination of a
manufacturing agreement with Genentech, Inc. ("Genentech")
for the production of ENBREL at Genentech's manufacturing
facility in South San Francisco.
(9) To exclude the pro rata portion of the debt issuance costs that
were immediately charged to interest expense as a result
of certain holders of the convertible notes due in 2032
exercising their March 1, 2005 put option and the related
convertible notes being repaid in cash.
(10) To reflect the tax effect of the above adjustments, except for
the non-tax write-off of the acquired in-process research and
development related to the Abgenix acquisition. (see (5) above).
(11) The following table presents the computations for GAAP and
"Adjusted" diluted earnings per share, excluding stock option
expense, computed under the treasury stock and the "if-converted"
methods:

(A) On May 6, 2005 and August 17, 2005, in connection with an exchange
offer, we modified the terms of substantially all of our
convertible notes due in 2032. As a result, if converted, these
convertible notes would be settled in 1) cash equal to the lesser
of their accreted value at the conversion date or the conversion
value, as defined, and 2) shares of common stock, if any, to the
extent the conversion value exceeds the accreted value.
Accordingly, the convertible notes due in 2032 do not impact
diluted earnings per share under the "if-converted" method but
rather, they impact diluted earnings per share under the treasury
stock method, and only to the extent that the conversion value
exceeds the accreted value during any reporting period, requiring
such difference, if any, to be potentially settled in shares of
common stock.
(B) Dilutive securities used to compute "Adjusted" diluted earnings
per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 were
computed exclusive of the methodology used to determine dilutive
securities under SFAS No. 123R.
(12) "Adjusted" diluted earnings per share including the impact of
stock option expense for the three and six months ended June 30,
2006 and 2005 is as follows:

sales by $9 million. Excluding this impact, total product sales
would have increased 14% and international product sales would
have increased 18% over the prior year amounts.

(1) Holders of our outstanding convertible notes due in 2032 may
require the Company to purchase all or a portion of the notes on
specific dates as early as March 1, 2007 at the original issuance
price plus accrued original issue discount through the purchase
date. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2006, these convertible notes
have been classified as current liabilities.
Holders of these notes also had the right to require the Company
to purchase all or a portion of the notes on March 1, 2006.
However, because the holders of substantially all of the then
outstanding convertible notes did not require us to repurchase
such notes on this date, these convertible notes were classified
as non-current liabilities at December 31, 2005.
(2) In February 2006 we issued $2.5 billion of convertible notes due
in 2011 and $2.5 billion of convertible notes due in 2013.
