Material Cybersecurity Incidents regulatory

"Item 1.05 Material Cybersecurity Incidents. In July 2026, Amgen Inc."

protected health information medical

"including proprietary data, patient protected health information, and other information"

Protected health information is any personal medical or health-related data that can identify an individual—examples include diagnoses, treatment records, test results, insurance details, or an address when tied to health information. It matters to investors because organizations that collect, store or share this data face strict privacy laws, high breach and liability risk, and potential fines or reputational damage, making PHI a valuable but legally sensitive asset.

exfiltrated technical

"data, including proprietary data, patient protected health information, and other information, has been exfiltrated"

cloud environments technical

"unauthorized activity involving data stored in cloud environments hosted by third-party cloud service providers"

Cloud environments are networks of remote computers and services accessed over the internet that store data and run applications instead of relying on a company’s own servers or individual machines. They matter to investors because they influence a business’s costs, speed of growth, and risk profile—like renting flexible office space instead of owning a building, cloud use can lower upfront spending and enable rapid expansion but also creates dependence on third-party providers and potential security or outage risks.

regulatory and legal notification requirements regulatory

"The Company continues to evaluate applicable regulatory and legal notification requirements"

Item 1.05 Material Cybersecurity Incidents.

In July 2026, Amgen Inc. (the "Company") identified unauthorized activity involving data stored in cloud environments hosted by third-party cloud service providers. Upon detecting the activity, the Company activated its cybersecurity response plan, implemented containment measures, and engaged independent cybersecurity forensic experts.

The Company has since learned that some of its data, including proprietary data, patient protected health information, and other information, has been exfiltrated from these cloud environments. To date, the Company has not identified any impact to its products, manufacturing operations, or financial reporting systems, or to the Company's ability to meet patient needs. The investigation remains ongoing. The Company continues to assess whether, and/or the extent to which, patient, confidential business information, intellectual property, research and development, or other information may have been accessed, acquired, or exfiltrated and to evaluate the potential impact of the incident on the Company.

On July 29, 2026, in connection with our evaluation of the volume of the files that appear to have been impacted and the potential that the types of information in such files could be sensitive, the Company determined that this incident is material.

The Company takes its obligation to safeguard privacy and security of its patients’ data very seriously. The Company continues to evaluate applicable regulatory and legal notification requirements and will make all required notifications based on its findings, including to impacted patients.
