Keytruda* Patent License Agreement

In 2017, BMS and Ono entered a global patent license agreement with Merck related to Merck's PD-1 antibody Keytruda*. In accordance with the agreement, Merck is obligated to pay ongoing royalties on global sales of Keytruda* of 6.5% from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2023, and 2.5% from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026. The companies also granted certain rights to each other under their respective patent portfolios pertaining to PD-1. Payments and royalties are shared between BMS and Ono on a 75/25 percent allocation, respectively after adjusting for each party's legal fees.
Immatics

During the first quarter of 2022, BMS obtained a global exclusive license to Immatics' TCR bispecific IMA401 program, which is being studied in oncology. BMS and Immatics collaborate on the development and BMS will be responsible for the commercialization of IMA401 worldwide, including strategic decisions, regulatory responsibilities, funding and manufacturing. Immatics has the option to co-fund U.S. development in exchange for enhanced U.S. royalty payments and/or to co-promote IMA401 in the U.S. The transaction included an upfront payment of $150 million which was expensed to Acquired IPRD in the first quarter of 2022. Immatics is eligible to receive contingent development, regulatory and sales-based milestones of up to $770 million as well as royalties on global net sales.

Dragonfly

During the first quarter of 2022, a Phase I development milestone for interleukin-12 ("IL-12") was achieved resulting in a $175 million payment to Dragonfly and an Acquired IPRD charge. During the first quarter of 2023, BMS notified Dragonfly of its termination of the global exclusive license related to Dragonfly’s IL-12. All rights to IL-12 were reverted back to Dragonfly effective April 18, 2023.

Nimbus Change of Control Income

During the first quarter of 2022, BMS and Nimbus Therapeutics ("Nimbus") entered into a settlement resolving all legal claims and business interests pertaining to Nimbus' TYK2 inhibitor resulting in $40 million of income included in Other (income)/expense. The settlement also provides for BMS to receive additional amounts for contingent development, regulatory approval and sales-based milestones and 10% of any change in control proceeds received by Nimbus related to its TYK2 inhibitor. In February 2023, Takeda acquired 100% ownership of Nimbus' TYK2 inhibitor for approximately $4.0 billion in upfront proceeds plus contingent sales-based milestones aggregating up to $2.0 billion. As a result, $400 million of income related to the change of control provision was included in Other (income)/expense during the first quarter of 2023.

Royalty Extinguishment

During the second quarter of 2022, BMS amended the terms of a license arrangement and paid a third party $295 million, which was expensed to Acquired IPRD, to extinguish a future royalty obligation related to mavacamten prior to its FDA approval in April 2022.
