Safe Harbor Statement

This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are based on management’s current expectations and beliefs and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including, estimates of revenues, operating margins, capital expenditures, cash, other financial metrics, expected legal, arbitration, political, regulatory or clinical results or practices, customer and prescriber patterns or practices, reimbursement activities and outcomes and other such estimates and results. Forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, including those discussed below and more fully described in the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reports filed by Amgen, including Amgen’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K and any subsequent periodic reports on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. Please refer to Amgen’s most recent Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K for additional information on the uncertainties and risk factors related to our business. Unless otherwise noted, Amgen is providing this information as of March 30, 2014 and expressly disclaims any duty to update information contained in this presentation. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from those we project. Our results may be affected by our ability to successfully market both new and existing products domestically and internationally, clinical and regulatory developments (domestic or foreign) involving current and future products, sales growth of recently launched products, competition from other products (domestic or foreign) and difficulties or delays in manufacturing our products. Discovery or identification of new product candidates cannot be guaranteed and movement from concept to product is uncertain; consequently, there can be no guarantee that any particular product candidate will be successful and become a commercial product. Further, preclinical results do not guarantee safe and effective performance of product candidates in humans. The length of time that it takes for us to complete clinical trials and obtain regulatory approval for product marketing has in the past varied and we expect similar variability in the future. We develop product candidates internally and through licensing collaborations, partnerships, joint ventures and acquisitions. Product candidates that are derived from relationships or acquisitions may be subject to disputes between the parties or may prove to be not as effective or as safe as we may have believed at the time of entering into such relationship. In addition, sales of our products are affected by reimbursement policies imposed by third-party payers, including governments, private insurance plans and managed care providers and may be affected by regulatory, clinical and guideline developments and domestic and international trends toward managed care and healthcare cost containment as well as U.S. legislation affecting pharmaceutical pricing and

  • reimbursement. Government and others’ regulations and reimbursement policies may affect the development, usage and pricing of our products.

Furthermore, our research, testing, pricing, marketing and other operations are subject to extensive regulation by domestic and foreign government regulatory authorities. We or others could identify safety, side effects or manufacturing problems with our products after they are on the market. Our business may be impacted by government investigations, litigation and products liability claims. If we fail to meet the compliance obligations in the corporate integrity agreement between us and the U.S. government, we could become subject to significant sanctions. Further, while we routinely obtain patents for our products and technology, the protection offered by our patents and patent applications may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by

  • ur competitors. We depend on third parties for a significant portion of our manufacturing capacity for the supply of certain of our current and future

products and limits on supply may constrain sales of certain of our current products and product candidate development. In addition, we compete with

  • ther companies with respect to some of our marketed products as well as for the discovery and development of new products. Our products may

compete against products that have lower prices, established reimbursement, superior performance, are easier to administer, or that are otherwise competitive with our products. Further, some raw materials, medical devices and component parts for our products are supplied by sole third-party

  • suppliers. Our business performance could affect or limit the ability of our Board of Directors to declare a dividend or our ability to pay a dividend or

repurchase our common stock.

Evolocumab Phase 3 Program Findings

  • PCSK9 inhibition with evolocumab consistently reduced

LDL-C > 50% vs placebo

– In different populations – In combination with existing therapies – Over 12–52 weeks of therapy

  • Evolocumab LDL-C lowering was superior to ezetimibe
  • 140 mg Q2W and 420 mg QM dosing resulted in clinically

equivalent efficacy with similar AE profile

  • Adverse events were similar between arms, irrespective
  • f dose

Q2W = every other week; QM = monthly AE = adverse event; CK = creatine kinase

Evolocumab Phase 3 Program LDL-C Lowering Clinical Endpoints

  • Primary Endpoints*

– Percent change from baseline in LDL-C

  • Key Secondary Endpoints

– Change from baseline in LDL-C – LDL-C response (LDL-C < 70 mg/dL [1.8 mmol/L]) – Percent change from baseline in:

  • Non-HDL-C, ApoB, total cholesterol/HDL-C ratio, ApoB/ApoA1

ratio, Lp(a), triglycerides, HDL-C, VLDL-C

  • Tertiary Endpoints

– Percent change from baseline in ApoA1

  • Exploratory

– Adjudicated cardiovascular endpoints

HDL-C = high-density lipoprotein; VLDL-C = very low-density lipoprotein *Co-endpoints were at week 12 and mean at weeks 10 and 12 for MENDEL-2, LAPLACE-2, RUTHERFORD-2, and GAUSS-2; DESCARTES assessed endpoints at weeks 52 and 12

Summary

  • Evolocumab administered Q2W and QM consistently reduced

LDL-C in subjects with a wide range of cardiovascular risk

  • Evolocumab treatment also resulted in favorable changes in
  • ther lipoproteins
  • 140 mg Q2W and 420 mg QM results were clinically equivalent

in efficacy with similar AE profile

  • Treatment-emergent AEs, CK, and ALT/AST elevations, and

neurocognitive AEs were similar between arms

  • No detection of neutralizing Abs
  • > 3,000 subject-years of evolocumab exposure across all

doses in development program to date

ALT = alanine aminotransferase; AST = aspartate aminotransferase
