*This Form 10-Q includes discussion of the COVID-19 vaccine that Pfizer has co-developed with BioNTech (BNT162b2) and our oral COVID-19 treatment (Paxlovid). The vaccine may be referred to by its brand name, Comirnaty (approved under a BLA in the U.S.), or as BNT162b2 (authorized under EUA in the U.S.). The vaccine is FDA-approved to prevent COVID-19 in individuals 12 years of age and older. In addition, Comirnaty/BNT162b2 is authorized for emergency use by the FDA for individuals 6 months of age and older, as a third dose for certain immunocompromised individuals 5 years of age and older, as a booster dose for individuals 5 years of age and older and as a second booster dose for individuals 50 years of age and older and for certain immunocompromised individuals 12 years of age and older. Paxlovid is authorized for emergency use by the FDA under an EUA for the treatment of mild-to-moderate COVID-19 in adults and pediatric patients (12 years of age and older weighing at least 40 kg [88 lbs]) with positive results of direct SARS CoV-2 viral testing, and who are at high-risk for progression to severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death. The emergency uses are only authorized for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of the medical product under Section 564(b)(1) of the FFDCA unless the declaration is terminated or authorization revoked sooner. The FDA has issued EUAs to certain other companies for products intended for the prevention or treatment of COVID-19 and may continue to do so during the duration of the Declaration. See the EUA Fact Sheets at www.cvdvaccine-us.com and www.covid19oralrx.com.
This Form 10-Q includes discussion of certain clinical studies relating to various in-line products and/or product candidates. These studies typically are part of a larger body of clinical data relating to such products or product candidates, and the discussion herein should be considered in the context of the larger body of data. In addition, clinical trial data are subject to differing interpretations, and, even when we view data as sufficient to support the safety and/or effectiveness of a product candidate or a new indication for an in-line product, regulatory authorities may not share our views and may require additional data or may deny approval altogether.
Some amounts in this Form 10-Q may not add due to rounding. All percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts. All trademarks mentioned are the property of their owners.
The information contained on our website, our Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and LinkedIn pages or our Twitter accounts, or any third-party website, is not incorporated by reference into this Form 10-Q.

At the beginning of our fiscal fourth quarter of 2021, we reorganized our commercial operations and began to manage our commercial operations through a new global structure consisting of two operating segments, each led by a single manager: Biopharma, our innovative science-based biopharmaceutical business, and PC1, our global contract development and manufacturing organization and a leading supplier of specialty active pharmaceutical ingredients. Biopharma is the only reportable segment. See Note 17A in our 2021 Form 10-K and Note 13 below.
Business development activities completed in 2021 and 2022 impacted financial results in the periods presented. Discontinued operations in the periods presented relate to the previously divested Meridian subsidiary and post-closing adjustments for other previously divested businesses. See Notes 1A and 2B in our 2021 Form 10-K, and Note 2B below.
We have made certain reclassification adjustments to conform prior-period amounts to the current presentation for discontinued operations, acquired IPR&D expenses and segment reporting.
B. New Accounting Standard Adopted in 2022
On January 1, 2022, we early adopted a new accounting standard for contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination. Under the new standard, acquired contract assets and contract liabilities are required to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 606. This new guidance generally results in the acquirer recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at the same amounts that were recorded by the acquiree. Previously, these amounts were recognized by the acquirer at fair value as of the acquisition date. We adopted this new standard on a prospective basis and there was no impact to our consolidated financial statements.
C. Revenues and Trade Accounts Receivable
Revenue Recognition––We record revenues from product sales when there is a transfer of control of the product from us to the customer. We typically determine transfer of control based on when the product is shipped or delivered and title passes to the customer. For certain contracts, the finished product may temporarily be stored at our or our third-party subcontractors’ locations under a bill-and-hold arrangement. Revenue is recognized on bill-and-hold arrangements at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the product and all of the following criteria have been met: the arrangement is substantive; the product is identified separately as belonging to the customer; the product is ready for physical transfer to the customer; and we do not have the ability to use the product or direct it to another customer. In determining when the customer obtains control of the product, we consider certain indicators, including whether we have a present right to payment from the customer, whether title and/or significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer and whether customer acceptance has been received.
Customers––Our prescription pharmaceutical products, with the exception of Paxlovid, are sold principally to wholesalers, but we also sell directly to retailers, hospitals, clinics, government agencies and pharmacies. We principally sell Paxlovid to government agencies. In the U.S., we primarily sell our vaccine products directly to the federal government, CDC, wholesalers, individual provider offices, retail pharmacies and integrated delivery networks. Outside the U.S., we primarily sell our vaccines to government and non-government institutions.

Deductions from Revenues––Our accruals for Medicare, Medicaid and related state program and performance-based contract rebates, chargebacks, sales allowances and sales returns and cash discounts are as follows:
(MILLIONS)July 3,
2022
December 31, 2021
Reserve against Trade accounts receivable, less allowance for doubtful accounts
$1,057 $1,077 
Other current liabilities:

Other accruals458 528 
Other noncurrent liabilities
386 433 
Total accrued rebates and other sales-related accruals$5,776 $5,850 
Trade Accounts Receivable––Trade accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value. The allowance for credit losses reflects our best estimate of expected credit losses of the receivables portfolio determined on the basis of historical experience, current information, and forecasts of future economic conditions. In developing the estimate for expected credit losses, trade accounts receivables are segmented into pools of assets depending on market (U.S. versus international), delinquency status, and customer type (high risk versus low risk and government versus non-government), and fixed reserve percentages are established for each pool of trade accounts receivables.
In determining the reserve percentages for each pool of trade accounts receivables, we considered our historical experience with certain customers and customer types, regulatory and legal environments, country and political risk, and other relevant current and future forecasted macroeconomic factors. These credit risk indicators are monitored on a quarterly basis to determine whether there have been any changes in the economic environment that would indicate the established reserve percentages should be adjusted, and are considered on a regional basis to reflect more geographic-specific metrics. Additionally, write-offs and recoveries of customer receivables are tracked against collections on a quarterly basis to determine whether the reserve percentages remain appropriate. When management becomes aware of certain customer-specific factors that impact credit risk, specific allowances for these known troubled accounts are recorded. Trade accounts receivable are written off after all reasonable means to collect the full amount (including litigation, where appropriate) have been exhausted.
During the three and six months ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021, additions to the allowance for credit losses, write-offs and recoveries of customer receivables were not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. For additional information on our trade accounts receivable, see Note 1H in our 2021 Form 10-K.

D. Acquired In-Process Research and Development Expenses

In the first quarter of 2022, we began reporting acquired IPR&D expense as a separate line item in our consolidated statements of income. Acquired in-process research and development expenses includes costs incurred in connection with (a) all upfront and milestone payments on collaboration and in-license agreements, including premiums on equity securities and (b) asset acquisitions of acquired IPR&D. These costs were previously recorded in Research and development expenses. Prior periods have been revised to conform to the current period presentation. When we acquire net assets that do not constitute a business, as defined in U.S. GAAP, no goodwill is recognized and acquired IPR&D is expensed. The fair value of IPR&D acquired in connection with a business combination is recorded on the balance sheet as Identifiable intangible assets. See Notes 1E and 10 in our 2021 Form 10-K.
Note 2. Acquisition, Discontinued Operations, Equity-Method Investment and Collaborative Arrangement
A. Acquisition
Arena––On March 11, 2022, we acquired Arena, a clinical stage company, for $100 per share in cash. The total fair value of the consideration transferred was $6.6 billion ($6.2 billion, net of cash acquired). In addition, $138 million in payments to Arena employees for the fair value of previously unvested long-term incentive awards was recognized as post-closing compensation expense and recorded in Restructuring charges and certain acquisition-related costs (see Note 3).
Arena’s portfolio includes development-stage therapeutic candidates in gastroenterology, dermatology, and cardiology, including etrasimod, an oral, selective sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulator currently in development for a range of immuno-inflammatory diseases including UC, Crohn’s disease, atopic dermatitis, eosinophilic esophagitis, and alopecia areata. In connection with this acquisition, we provisionally recorded: (i) $5.5 billion in Identifiable intangible assets, consisting of $5.0 billion of IPR&D and $460 million of indefinite-lived Licensing agreements and other, (ii) $1.0 billion of Goodwill and (iii) $510 million of net deferred tax liabilities. The allocation of the consideration transferred to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed has not yet been finalized.

B. Discontinued Operations
Meridian––On December 31, 2021, we completed the sale of our Meridian subsidiary. In the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, the amounts recorded under the interim TSAs and MSA were not material.
Upjohn Separation and Combination with Mylan––On November 16, 2020, we completed the spin-off and the combination of the Upjohn Business with Mylan to form Viatris. In connection with this transaction, Pfizer and Viatris entered into various agreements to effect the separation and combination and to provide a framework for our relationship after the combination, including a separation and distribution agreement, interim operating models, including agency arrangements, MSAs, TSAs, a tax matters agreement, and an employee matters agreement, among others. The amounts recorded under these agreements were not material to our consolidated results of operations in the three and six months ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021. Net amounts due from Viatris under the agreements were approximately $272 million as of July 3, 2022 and $53 million as of December 31, 2021. The cash flows associated with the agreements are included in Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, except for a $277 million payment to Viatris made in the first quarter of 2021 pursuant to terms of the separation agreement, which is reported in Other financing activities, net.
Discontinued operations—net of tax for the three and six months ended July 4, 2021 reflects pre-tax loss from discontinued operations of $346 million and $337 million, respectively, and primarily includes pre-disposal operations related to our former Meridian subsidiary including a $345 million pre-tax expense to resolve a Multi-District Litigation relating to EpiPen against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas (prior to presenting Meridian as discontinued operations, this EpiPen litigation amount was included in Other (income)/deductions––net). For the three and six months ended July 3, 2022, Discontinued operations—net of tax reflects pre-tax income from discontinued operations of $34 million and $24 million, respectively, and relates to post-closing adjustments for previously divested businesses primarily for tax and legal matters.
C. Equity-Method Investment
Consumer Healthcare JV––On July 31, 2019, we completed a transaction in which we and GSK combined our respective consumer healthcare businesses into a new JV that operated globally under the GSK Consumer Healthcare name. In exchange for the contribution of our consumer healthcare business to the JV, we received a 32% equity stake in the new company and GSK owned the remaining 68%. We have accounted for our interest in the Consumer Healthcare JV as an equity-method investment. The carrying value of our investment in the Consumer Healthcare JV is $14.6 billion as of July 3, 2022 and $16.3 billion as of December 31, 2021 and is reported as a private equity investment in Equity-method investments as of July 3, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Consumer Healthcare JV is a foreign investee whose reporting currency is the U.K. pound, and therefore we translate its financial statements into U.S. dollars and recognize the impact of foreign currency translation adjustments in the carrying value of our investment and in other comprehensive income. The decrease in the value of our investment from December 31, 2021 is primarily due to $1.7 billion in pre-tax foreign currency translation adjustments (see Note 6), as well as dividends totaling approximately $354 million, partially offset by our share of the JV’s earnings. We record our share of earnings from the Consumer Healthcare JV on a quarterly basis on a one-quarter lag in Other (income)/deductions––net. Our total share of the JV’s earnings generated in the first quarter of 2022, which we recorded in our operating results in the second quarter of 2022, was $150 million. Our total share of the JV’s earnings generated in the fourth quarter of 2021 and first quarter of 2022, which we recorded in our operating results in the first six months of 2022, was $335 million. Our total share of the JV’s earnings generated in the first quarter of 2021, which we recorded in our operating results in the second quarter of 2021, was $148 million. Our total share of the JV’s earnings generated in the fourth quarter of 2020 and first quarter of 2021, which we recorded in our operating results in the first six months of 2021, was $218 million. The total amortization and adjustment of basis differences resulting from the excess of the initial fair value of our investment over the underlying equity in the carrying value of the net assets of the JV is included in Other (income)/deductions––net and was not material to our results of operations in the periods presented. See Note 4.

In connection with GSK’s previously announced planned demerger of at least 80% of GSK’s 68% equity interest in the Consumer Healthcare JV, in March 2022 the Consumer Healthcare JV completed its offering of a total aggregate principal amount of $8.75 billion in U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes of various maturities, €2.35 billion in euro-denominated senior notes of various maturities and £700 million in U.K. pound-denominated senior notes of various maturities (collectively, the “notes”). The notes were guaranteed by GSK generally up to and excluding the date of the demerger (the “Guarantee Assumption Date”). We agreed to indemnify GSK for 32% (representing our pro rata equity interest in the Consumer Healthcare JV) of any amount payable by GSK pursuant to its guarantee of the notes. Our indemnity was provided solely for the benefit of GSK. Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries is an issuer or guarantor of any of the notes.
Following its issuance of the notes in March 2022, which fell in our international second quarter of 2022, the Consumer Healthcare JV loaned to us and GSK the net proceeds received from the notes on a pro rata equity ownership basis, for which we received a loan of £2.9 billion ($3.7 billion as of the end of our second quarter of 2022), at an interest rate of 1.365% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears.
On July 18, 2022, GSK completed its demerger of the Consumer Healthcare JV which became Haleon, an independent, publicly traded company listed on the London Stock Exchange that holds the joint Consumer Healthcare business of GSK and Pfizer following the demerger. In conjunction with the demerger, we received £3.5 billion ($4.2 billion) in dividends from the JV in July 2022, which decreased the carrying value of our investment. Simultaneous with the receipt of the dividends, we repaid the loan from the JV. GSK similarly received pro rata dividends and simultaneously repaid its pro rata loan from the JV. In conjunction with these transactions, our indemnification of GSK’s guarantee discussed above was terminated. We continue to own 32% of Haleon after the transactions related to the demerger and continue to account for our interest in Haleon as an equity-method investment.
D. Collaborative Arrangement
Collaboration with Biohaven––In November 2021, we entered into a collaboration and license agreement and related sublicense agreement with Biohaven and certain of its subsidiaries to commercialize rimegepant and zavegepant for the treatment and prevention of migraines outside of the U.S., subject to regulatory approval. Biohaven will continue to lead R&D globally and we have the exclusive right to commercialization globally, outside of the U.S. Upon the closing of the transaction on January 4, 2022, we paid Biohaven $500 million, including an upfront payment of $150 million and an equity investment of $350 million. We recognized $263 million for the upfront payment and premium paid on our equity investment in Acquired in-process research and development expenses. Biohaven is also eligible to receive up to $740 million in non-U.S. commercialization milestone payments, in addition to tiered double-digit royalties on net sales outside of the U.S. In addition to the milestone payments and royalties above, we will also reimburse Biohaven for the portion of certain additional milestone payments and royalties due to third parties in accordance with preexisting Biohaven agreements, which are attributed to ex-U.S. sales.
Note 3. Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives
A. Transforming to a More Focused Company Program
With the formation of the Consumer Healthcare JV in 2019 and the spin-off of our Upjohn Business in the fourth quarter of 2020, Pfizer has transformed into a focused, global leader in science-based innovative medicines and vaccines. We continue our efforts to ensure our cost base and support model align appropriately with this operating structure. While certain direct costs

PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
transferred to the Consumer Healthcare JV, and to the Upjohn Business in connection with the spin-off, there are indirect costs which did not transfer. This program is primarily composed of the following three initiatives:
We are taking steps to restructure our corporate enabling functions to appropriately support our business, R&D and PGS platform functions. We expect costs, primarily related to restructuring our corporate enabling functions, to total $1.8 billion, with substantially all costs to be cash expenditures. Actions include, among others, changes in location of certain activities, expanded use and co-location of centers of excellence and shared services, and increased use of digital technologies. The associated actions and the specific costs primarily include severance and benefit plan impacts, exit costs as well as associated implementation costs.
In addition, we are transforming our commercial go-to market model in the way we engage patients and physicians. We expect costs of $1.2 billion, with all costs to be cash expenditures. Actions include, among others, centralization of certain activities and enhanced use of digital technologies. The costs for this effort primarily include severance and associated implementation costs.
We are also optimizing our manufacturing network under this program and incurring one-time costs for cost-reduction initiatives related to our manufacturing operations. We expect to incur costs of $800 million, with approximately 25% of the costs to be non-cash. The costs for this effort include, among other things, severance costs, implementation costs, product transfer costs, site exit costs, as well as accelerated depreciation.
The program costs discussed above are expected to be incurred primarily from 2020 through 2022, and may be rounded and represent approximations.
From the start of this program in the fourth quarter of 2019 through July 3, 2022, we incurred costs of $2.5 billion, of which $987 million ($800 million of restructuring charges) is associated with Biopharma.

Note 5. Tax Matters
A. Taxes on Income from Continuing Operations
Our effective tax rate for continuing operations was 13.7% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 16.2% for the second quarter of 2021, and was 13.4% for the first six months of 2022, compared to 15.3% for the first six months of 2021. The lower effective tax rates for the second quarter and first six months of 2022, compared to the second quarter and first six months of 2021, were primarily due to the favorable change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings as a result of operating fluctuations in the normal course of business.
We elected, with the filing of our 2018 U.S. Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return, to pay our initial estimated $15 billion repatriation tax liability on accumulated post-1986 foreign earnings over eight years through 2026. The fourth annual installment of this liability was paid by its April 18, 2022 due date. The fifth annual installment is due April 18, 2023 and is reported in current Income taxes payable as of July 3, 2022. The remaining liability is reported in noncurrent Other taxes

payable. Our obligations may vary as a result of changes in our uncertain tax positions and/or availability of attributes such as foreign tax and other credit carryforwards.
B. Tax Contingencies

We are subject to income tax in many jurisdictions, and a certain degree of estimation is required in recording the assets and liabilities related to income taxes. All of our tax positions are subject to audit by the local taxing authorities in each tax jurisdiction. These tax audits can involve complex issues, interpretations and judgments and the resolution of matters may span multiple years, particularly if subject to negotiation or litigation.

The U.S. is one of our major tax jurisdictions, and we are regularly audited by the IRS. With respect to Pfizer, the IRS has issued Revenue Agent’s Reports (RARs) for tax years 2011-2013 and 2014-2015. We are not in agreement with the RARs and are currently appealing certain disputed issues. Tax years 2016-2018 are currently under audit. Tax years 2019-2022 are open but not under audit. All other tax years are closed. In addition to the open audit years in the U.S., we have open audit years in certain major international tax jurisdictions dating back to 2011.
For additional information, see Note 5D in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis––The carrying value of Long-term debt, excluding the current portion was $34 billion as of July 3, 2022 and $36 billion as of December 31, 2021. The estimated fair value of such debt, using a market approach and Level 2 inputs, was $34 billion as of July 3, 2022 and $42 billion as of December 31, 2021.
The differences between the estimated fair values and carrying values of held-to-maturity debt securities, private equity securities, long-term receivables and short-term borrowings not measured at fair value on a recurring basis were not significant as of July 3, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The fair value measurements of our held-to-maturity debt securities and short-term borrowings are based on Level 2 inputs. The fair value measurements of our long-term receivables and private equity securities are based on Level 3 inputs.

E. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
Foreign Exchange Risk––A significant portion of our revenues, earnings and net investments in foreign affiliates is exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. Where foreign exchange risk is not offset by other exposures, we manage our foreign exchange risk principally through the use of derivative financial instruments and foreign currency debt. These financial instruments serve to mitigate the impact on net income as a result of remeasurement into another currency, or against the impact of translation into U.S. dollars of certain foreign exchange-denominated transactions.
The derivative financial instruments primarily hedge or offset exposures in the euro, U.K. pound, Japanese yen, and Canadian dollar, and include a portion of our forecasted foreign exchange-denominated intercompany inventory sales hedged up to two years. We may seek to protect against possible declines in the reported net investments of our foreign business entities.
Interest Rate Risk––Our interest-bearing investments and borrowings are subject to interest rate risk. Depending on market conditions, we may change the profile of our outstanding debt or investments by entering into derivative financial instruments like interest rate swaps, either to hedge or offset the exposure to changes in the fair value of hedged items with fixed interest rates, or to convert variable rate debt or investments to fixed rates. The derivative financial instruments primarily hedge U.S. dollar fixed-rate debt.

F. Credit Risk
A significant portion of our trade accounts receivable balances are due from wholesalers and governments. For additional information on our trade accounts receivables with significant customers, see Note 13C below and Note 17C in our 2021 Form 10-K.
As of July 3, 2022, the largest investment exposures in our portfolio represent primarily sovereign debt instruments issued by France, Germany, Canada, the U.S., Japan, Switzerland and the U.K.
With respect to our derivative financial instrument agreements with financial institutions, we do not expect to incur a significant loss from failure of any counterparty. Derivative financial instruments are executed under International Swaps and Derivatives Association master agreements with credit-support annexes that contain zero threshold provisions requiring collateral to be exchanged daily depending on levels of exposure. As a result, there are no significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual financial institution. As of July 3, 2022, the aggregate fair value of these derivative financial instruments that are in a net payable position was $362 million, for which we have posted collateral of $414 million with a corresponding amount reported in Short-term investments. As of July 3, 2022, the aggregate fair value of our derivative financial instruments that are in a net receivable position was $739 million, for which we have received collateral of $755 million with a corresponding amount reported in Short-term borrowings, including current portion of long-term debt.

Note 12. Contingencies and Certain Commitments
We and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to numerous contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business, including tax and legal contingencies. The following outlines our legal contingencies. For a discussion of our tax contingencies, see Note 5B.
A. Legal Proceedings
Our legal contingencies include, but are not limited to, the following:
Patent litigation, which typically involves challenges to the coverage and/or validity of patents on various products, processes or dosage forms. An adverse outcome could result in loss of patent protection for a product, a significant loss of revenues from a product or impairment of the value of associated assets. We are the plaintiff in the majority of these actions.
Product liability and other product-related litigation related to current or former products, which can include personal injury, consumer, off-label promotion, securities, antitrust and breach of contract claims, among others, and often involves highly complex issues relating to medical causation, label warnings and reliance on those warnings, scientific evidence and findings, actual, provable injury and other matters.
Commercial and other asserted or unasserted matters, which can include acquisition-, licensing-, intellectual property-, collaboration- or co-promotion-related and product-pricing claims and environmental claims and proceedings, and can involve complexities that will vary from matter to matter.
Government investigations, which often are related to the extensive regulation of pharmaceutical companies by national, state and local government agencies in the U.S. and in other jurisdictions.
Certain of these contingencies could result in increased expenses and/or losses, including damages, royalty payments, fines and/or civil penalties, which could be substantial, and/or criminal charges.
We believe that our claims and defenses in matters in which we are a defendant are substantial, but litigation is inherently unpredictable and excessive verdicts do occur. We do not believe that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position. However, we could incur judgments, enter into settlements or revise our expectations regarding the
24


PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
outcome of matters, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and/or our cash flows in the period in which the amounts are accrued or paid.
We have accrued for losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable. Substantially all of our contingencies are subject to significant uncertainties and, therefore, determining the likelihood of a loss and/or the measurement of any loss can be complex. Consequently, we are unable to estimate the range of reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts accrued. Our assessments, which result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties, are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but that may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause us to change those estimates and assumptions.
Amounts recorded for legal and environmental contingencies can result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. For proceedings under environmental laws to which a governmental authority is a party, we have adopted a disclosure threshold of $1 million in potential or actual governmental monetary sanctions.
The principal pending matters to which we are a party are discussed below. In determining whether a pending matter is a principal matter, we consider both quantitative and qualitative factors to assess materiality, such as, among others, the amount of damages and the nature of other relief sought, if specified; our view of the merits of the claims and of the strength of our defenses; whether the action purports to be, or is, a class action and, if not certified, our view of the likelihood that a class will be certified by the court; the jurisdiction in which the proceeding is pending; whether related actions have been transferred to multidistrict litigation; any experience that we or, to our knowledge, other companies have had in similar proceedings; whether disclosure of the action would be important to a reader of our financial statements, including whether disclosure might change a reader’s judgment about our financial statements in light of all of the information that is available to the reader; the potential impact of the proceeding on our reputation; and the extent of public interest in the matter. In addition, with respect to patent matters in which we are the plaintiff, we consider, among other things, the financial significance of the product protected by the patent(s) at issue. Some of the matters discussed below include those which management believes that the likelihood of possible loss in excess of amounts accrued is remote.
A1. Legal Proceedings––Patent Litigation
We are involved in suits relating to our patents, including but not limited to, those discussed below. Most involve claims by generic drug manufacturers that patents covering our products (or those of our collaboration/licensing partners to which we have licenses or co-promotion rights and to which we may or may not be a party), processes or dosage forms are invalid and/or do not cover the product of the generic drug manufacturer. Also, counterclaims, as well as various independent actions, have been filed alleging that our assertions of, or attempts to enforce, patent rights with respect to certain products constitute unfair competition and/or violations of antitrust laws. In addition to the challenges to the U.S. patents that are discussed below, patent rights to certain of our products or those of our collaboration/licensing partners are being challenged in various other jurisdictions. Some of our collaboration or licensing partners face challenges to the validity of their patent rights in non-U.S. jurisdictions. For example, in April 2022, the U.K. High Court issued a judgment finding invalid a BMS patent related to Eliquis due to expire in 2026. BMS is seeking permission to appeal the High Court’s decision. Additional challenges remain pending in other jurisdictions. Also, for example, in July 2022, CureVac AG (CureVac) brought a patent infringement action against BioNTech and certain of its subsidiaries in the German Regional Court alleging that Comirnaty infringes three German utility model patents and one expired European patent. Additional challenges involving Comirnaty patents may be filed against us and/or BioNTech in other jurisdictions in the future. Adverse decisions in these matters could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. We are also party to patent damages suits in various jurisdictions pursuant to which generic drug manufacturers, payers, governments or other parties are seeking damages from us for allegedly causing delay of generic entry.

We also are often involved in other proceedings, such as inter partes review, post-grant review, re-examination or opposition proceedings, before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the European Patent Office, or other foreign counterparts relating to our intellectual property or the intellectual property rights of others. Also, if one of our patents is found to be invalid by such proceedings, generic or competitive products could be introduced into the market resulting in the erosion of sales of our existing products. For example, several of the patents in our pneumococcal vaccine portfolio have been challenged in inter partes review and post-grant review proceedings in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. In addition, another patent was challenged in federal court in Delaware; and that case was settled in September 2021 on terms not material to the company. Other challenges to pneumococcal vaccine patents remain pending at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board and outside the U.S. The invalidation of any of the patents in our pneumococcal portfolio could potentially allow additional competitor vaccines, if approved, to enter the marketplace earlier than anticipated. In the event that any of the patents are found valid and infringed, a competitor’s vaccine, if approved, might be prohibited from entering the market or a competitor might be required to pay us a royalty.

We are also subject to patent litigation pursuant to which one or more third parties seek damages and/or injunctive relief to compensate for alleged infringement of its patents by our commercial or other activities. For example, our Hospira subsidiaries are involved in patent and patent-related disputes over their attempts to bring generic pharmaceutical products to market. If one of our marketed products is found to infringe valid patent rights of a third party, such third party may be awarded significant damages or royalty payments, or we may be prevented from further sales of that product. Such damages may be enhanced as much as three-fold if we or one of our subsidiaries is found to have willfully infringed valid patent rights of a third party.
Actions In Which We Are The Plaintiff
EpiPen
In 2010, King, which we acquired in 2011 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary, brought a patent-infringement action against Sandoz in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey in connection with Sandoz’s abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) filed with the FDA seeking approval to market an epinephrine injectable product. Sandoz is challenging patents, which expire in 2025, covering the next-generation autoinjector for use with epinephrine that is sold under the EpiPen brand name. We expect that the outcome of this matter will not be material to us.
Xeljanz (tofacitinib)
Beginning in 2017, we brought patent-infringement actions against several generic manufacturers that filed separate ANDAs with the FDA seeking approval to market their generic versions of tofacitinib tablets in one or both of 5 mg and 10 mg dosage strengths, and in both immediate and extended release forms. To date, we have settled actions with several manufacturers on terms not material to us. The remaining actions continue in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware as described below.
In October 2021, we brought a separate patent-infringement action against Sinotherapeutics Inc. (Sinotherapeutics) asserting the infringement and validity of our patent covering extended release formulations of tofacitinib that was challenged by Sinotherapeutics in its ANDA seeking approval to market a generic version of tofacitinib 11 mg extended release tablets.
In February 2022, we brought a separate patent-infringement action against Slayback Pharma LLC (Slayback) asserting the infringement and validity of our compound patent covering the active ingredient that was challenged by Slayback in its ANDA seeking approval to market a generic version of tofacitinib oral solution 1 mg/mL. In May 2022, we settled our action against Slayback on terms not material to us.
In June 2022, we brought a separate patent infringement action against MSN Laboratories Private Ltd. (MSN) asserting the infringement and validity of our compound patent covering the active agreement that was challenged by MSN in its ANDAs seeking approval to market generic versions of tofacitinib immediate release tablets (5 mg, 10 mg) and oral solution 1 mg/mL.
Inlyta (axitinib)
In 2019, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (Glenmark) notified us that it had filed an ANDA with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Inlyta. Glenmark asserts the invalidity and non-infringement of the crystalline form patent for Inlyta that expires in 2030. In 2019, we filed suit against Glenmark in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, asserting the validity and infringement of the crystalline form patent for Inlyta.
Ibrance (palbociclib)
Beginning in September 2020, we received correspondence from several generic companies notifying us that they would seek approval to market generic versions of Ibrance capsules. The generic companies assert the invalidity and non-infringement of our crystalline form patent which expires in 2034. Beginning in October 2020, we brought patent infringement actions against each of these generic companies in various federal courts, asserting the validity and infringement of the crystalline form patent. We have settled with certain of these generic companies on terms not material to us, and we dismissed the patent infringement actions against the remaining generic companies.
Beginning in January 2021, several generic companies notified us that they had filed ANDAs with the FDA seeking approval to market generic versions of Ibrance tablets. The generic companies are challenging some or all of the following patents: (i) the composition of matter patent expiring in 2027; (ii) the composition of matter patent expiring in 2023; (iii) the method of use patent expiring in 2023; (iv) the crystalline form patent expiring in 2034; and (v) a tablet formulation patent expiring in 2036. We brought patent infringement actions against each of the generic filers in various federal courts, asserting the validity and infringement of the patents challenged by the generic companies. We have settled with one of these generic companies on terms not material to us, and we dismissed the patent infringement actions relating to the crystalline form of patent, the composition of matter patent expiring in 2023, and the method of use patent against the generic companies that had challenged these patents.
Eucrisa
Beginning in September 2021, several generic companies notified us that they had filed ANDAs with the FDA seeking approval to market generic versions of Eucrisa. The companies assert the invalidity and non-infringement of a composition of

(UNAUDITED)
matter patent expiring in 2026, two method of use patents expiring in 2027, and one other method of use patent expiring in 2030. In September 2021, we brought patent infringement actions against the generic filers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, asserting the validity and infringement of the patents challenged by the generic companies.
Actions in Which We are the Defendant
Comirnaty
In March 2022, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Alnylam) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Pfizer and Pharmacia & Upjohn Co. LLC, our wholly owned subsidiary, alleging that Comirnaty infringes U.S. Patent No. 11,246,933, which was issued in February 2022, and seeking unspecified monetary damages. In July 2022, Alnylam filed a second complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Pfizer, Pharmacia & Upjohn Co. LLC, BioNTech and BioNTech Manufacturing GmbH, alleging that Comirnaty infringes U.S. Patent No. 11,382,979, which was issued in July 2022, and seeking unspecified monetary damages.
Paxlovid
In June 2022, Enanta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts against Pfizer alleging that the active ingredient in Paxlovid, nirmatrelvir, infringes U.S. Patent No. 11,358,953, which was issued in June 2022, and seeking unspecified monetary damages.
Matters Involving Pfizer and its Collaboration/Licensing Partners
Eliquis
In 2017, twenty-five generic companies sent BMS Paragraph-IV certification letters informing BMS that they had filed ANDAs seeking approval of generic versions of Eliquis, challenging the validity and infringement of one or more of the three patents listed in the Orange Book for Eliquis. One of the patents expired in December 2019 and the remaining patents currently are set to expire in 2026 and 2031. Eliquis has been jointly developed and is being commercialized by BMS and Pfizer. BMS and Pfizer filed patent-infringement actions against all generic filers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware and the U.S. District Court for the District of West Virginia, asserting that each of the generic companies’ proposed products would infringe each of the patent(s) that each generic filer challenged. Some generic filers challenged only the 2031 patent, some challenged both the 2031 and 2026 patent, and one generic company challenged all three patents. In August 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware ruled that both the 2026 patent and the 2031 patent are valid and infringed by the proposed generic products. In August and September 2020, the generic filers appealed the District Court’s decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Prior to the August 2020 ruling, we and BMS settled with certain of the companies on terms not material to us, and we and BMS may settle with other generic companies in the future. In September 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the District Court’s decision.
Comirnaty
In July 2022, Pfizer, BioNTech and BioNTech Manufacturing GmbH filed a declaratory judgment complaint against CureVac in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts seeking a judgment of non-infringement for the following three patents relating to Comirnaty: U.S. Patent Nos. 11,135,312, 11,149,278, and 11,241,493.
A2. Legal Proceedings––Product Litigation
We are defendants in numerous cases, including but not limited to those discussed below, related to our pharmaceutical and other products. Plaintiffs in these cases seek damages and other relief on various grounds for alleged personal injury and economic loss.
Asbestos
Between 1967 and 1982, Warner-Lambert owned American Optical Corporation (American Optical), which manufactured and sold respiratory protective devices and asbestos safety clothing. In connection with the sale of American Optical in 1982, Warner-Lambert agreed to indemnify the purchaser for certain liabilities, including certain asbestos-related and other claims. Warner-Lambert was acquired by Pfizer in 2000 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer. Warner-Lambert is actively engaged in the defense of, and will continue to explore various means of resolving, these claims.

Numerous lawsuits against American Optical, Pfizer and certain of its previously owned subsidiaries are pending in various federal and state courts seeking damages for alleged personal injury from exposure to products allegedly containing asbestos and other allegedly hazardous materials sold by Pfizer and certain of its previously owned subsidiaries.
There also are a small number of lawsuits pending in various federal and state courts seeking damages for alleged exposure to asbestos in facilities owned or formerly owned by Pfizer or its subsidiaries.

Effexor
Beginning in 2011, actions, including purported class actions, were filed in various federal courts against Wyeth and, in certain of the actions, affiliates of Wyeth and certain other defendants relating to Effexor XR, which is the extended-release formulation of Effexor. The plaintiffs in each of the class actions seek to represent a class consisting of all persons in the U.S. and its territories who directly purchased, indirectly purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Effexor XR or generic Effexor XR from any of the defendants from June 14, 2008 until the time the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct ceased. The plaintiffs in all of the actions allege delay in the launch of generic Effexor XR in the U.S. and its territories, in violation of federal antitrust laws and, in certain of the actions, the antitrust, consumer protection and various other laws of certain states, as the result of Wyeth fraudulently obtaining and improperly listing certain patents for Effexor XR in the Orange Book, enforcing certain patents for Effexor XR and entering into a litigation settlement agreement with a generic drug manufacturer with respect to Effexor XR. Each of the plaintiffs seeks treble damages (for itself in the individual actions or on behalf of the putative class in the purported class actions) for alleged price overcharges for Effexor XR or generic Effexor XR in the U.S. and its territories since June 14, 2008. All of these actions have been consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.
In 2014, the District Court dismissed the direct purchaser plaintiffs’ claims based on the litigation settlement agreement, but declined to dismiss the other direct purchaser plaintiff claims. In 2015, the District Court entered partial final judgments as to all settlement agreement claims, including those asserted by direct purchasers and end-payer plaintiffs, which plaintiffs appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. In 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit reversed the District Court’s decisions and remanded the claims to the District Court.
Lipitor
Beginning in 2011, purported class actions relating to Lipitor were filed in various federal courts against, among others, Pfizer, certain Pfizer affiliates, and, in most of the actions, Ranbaxy Laboratories Ltd. (Ranbaxy) and certain Ranbaxy affiliates. The plaintiffs in these various actions seek to represent nationwide, multi-state or statewide classes consisting of persons or entities who directly purchased, indirectly purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Lipitor (or, in certain of the actions, generic Lipitor) from any of the defendants from March 2010 until the cessation of the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct (the Class Period). The plaintiffs allege delay in the launch of generic Lipitor, in violation of federal antitrust laws and/or state antitrust, consumer protection and various other laws, resulting from (i) the 2008 agreement pursuant to which Pfizer and Ranbaxy settled certain patent litigation involving Lipitor and Pfizer granted Ranbaxy a license to sell a generic version of Lipitor in various markets beginning on varying dates, and (ii) in certain of the actions, the procurement and/or enforcement of certain patents for Lipitor. Each of the actions seeks, among other things, treble damages on behalf of the putative class for alleged price overcharges for Lipitor (or, in certain of the actions, generic Lipitor) during the Class Period. In addition, individual actions have been filed against Pfizer, Ranbaxy and certain of their affiliates, among others, that assert claims and seek relief for the plaintiffs that are substantially similar to the claims asserted and the relief sought in the purported class actions described above. These various actions have been consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a Multi-District Litigation in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.
In September 2013 and 2014, the District Court dismissed with prejudice the claims of the direct purchasers. In October and November 2014, the District Court dismissed with prejudice the claims of all other Multi-District Litigation plaintiffs. All plaintiffs appealed the District Court’s orders dismissing their claims with prejudice to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. In addition, the direct purchaser class plaintiffs appealed the order denying their motion to amend the judgment and for leave to amend their complaint to the Court of Appeals. In 2017, the Court of Appeals reversed the District Court’s decisions and remanded the claims to the District Court.
Also, in 2013, the State of West Virginia filed an action in West Virginia state court against Pfizer and Ranbaxy, among others, that asserts claims and seeks relief on behalf of the State of West Virginia and residents of that state that are substantially similar to the claims asserted and the relief sought in the purported class actions described above.
EpiPen (Direct Purchaser)
In February 2020, a lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas against Pfizer, its current and former affiliates King and Meridian, and various Mylan entities, on behalf of a purported U.S. nationwide class of direct purchaser plaintiffs who purchased EpiPen devices directly from the defendants. Plaintiffs in this action generally allege that Pfizer and Mylan conspired to delay market entry of generic EpiPen through the settlement of patent litigation regarding EpiPen, and thereby delayed market entry of generic EpiPen in violation of federal antitrust law. Plaintiffs seek treble damages for alleged overcharges for EpiPen since 2011. In July 2021, the District Court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the direct purchaser complaint, without prejudice. In September 2021, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. In August 2022, the District Court granted Pfizer’s motion to dismiss the complaint.

Nexium 24HR and Protonix
A number of individual and multi-plaintiff lawsuits have been filed against Pfizer, certain of its subsidiaries and/or other pharmaceutical manufacturers in various federal and state courts alleging that the plaintiffs developed kidney-related injuries purportedly as a result of the ingestion of certain proton pump inhibitors. The cases against Pfizer involve Protonix and/or Nexium 24HR and seek compensatory and punitive damages and, in some cases, treble damages, restitution or disgorgement. In 2017, the federal actions were ordered transferred for coordinated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. As part of our Consumer Healthcare JV transaction with GSK, the JV has agreed to assume, and to indemnify Pfizer for, liabilities arising out of such litigation to the extent related to Nexium 24HR.
Docetaxel
Personal Injury Actions
A number of lawsuits have been filed against Hospira and Pfizer in various federal and state courts alleging that plaintiffs who were treated with Docetaxel developed permanent hair loss. The significant majority of the cases also name other defendants, including the manufacturer of the branded product, Taxotere. Plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages.
In 2016, the federal cases were transferred for coordinated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana.
Mississippi Attorney General Government Action
In 2018, the Attorney General of Mississippi filed a complaint in Mississippi state court against the manufacturer of the branded product and eight other manufacturers including Pfizer and Hospira, alleging, with respect to Pfizer and Hospira, a failure to warn about a risk of permanent hair loss in violation of the Mississippi Consumer Protection Act. The action seeks civil penalties and injunctive relief.
Zantac
A number of lawsuits have been filed against Pfizer in various federal and state courts alleging that plaintiffs developed various types of cancer, or face an increased risk of developing cancer, purportedly as a result of the ingestion of Zantac. The significant majority of these cases also name other defendants that have historically manufactured and/or sold Zantac. Pfizer has not sold Zantac since 2006, and only sold an OTC version of the product. Plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages.
In February 2020, the federal actions were transferred for coordinated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Plaintiffs in the Multi-District Litigation have filed against Pfizer and many other defendants a master personal injury complaint, asserting a consolidated consumer class action alleging, among other things, claims under consumer protection statutes of all 50 states, and a medical monitoring complaint seeking to certify medical monitoring classes under the laws of 13 states. In addition, (i) Pfizer has received service of Canadian class action complaints naming Pfizer and other defendants, and seeking compensatory and punitive damages for personal injury and economic loss, allegedly arising from the defendants’ sale of Zantac in Canada; and (ii) the State of New Mexico and the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore separately filed civil actions against Pfizer and many other defendants in state court, alleging various state statutory and common law claims in connection with the defendants’ alleged sale of Zantac in those jurisdictions. In April 2021, a Judicial Council Coordinated Proceeding was created in the Superior Court of California in Alameda County to coordinate personal injury actions against Pfizer and other defendants filed in California state court.
Chantix
Beginning in August 2021, a number of putative class actions have been filed against Pfizer in various U.S. federal courts following Pfizer’s voluntary recall of Chantix due to the presence of a nitrosamine, N-nitroso-varenicline. Plaintiffs assert that they suffered economic harm purportedly as a result of purchasing Chantix or generic varenicline medicines sold by Pfizer. Plaintiffs seek to represent nationwide and state-specific classes and seek various remedies, including damages and medical monitoring. Similar putative class actions have been filed in Canada and Israel, where the product brand is Champix.
A3. Legal Proceedings––Commercial and Other Matters
Monsanto-Related Matters
In 1997, Monsanto Company (Former Monsanto) contributed certain chemical manufacturing operations and facilities to a newly formed corporation, Solutia Inc. (Solutia), and spun off the shares of Solutia. In 2000, Former Monsanto merged with Pharmacia & Upjohn Company to form Pharmacia. Pharmacia then transferred its agricultural operations to a newly created subsidiary, named Monsanto Company (New Monsanto), which it spun off in a two-stage process that was completed in 2002. Pharmacia was acquired by Pfizer in 2003 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer.
In connection with its spin-off that was completed in 2002, New Monsanto assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, any liabilities related to Pharmacia’s former agricultural business. New Monsanto has defended and/or is defending Pharmacia

(UNAUDITED)
in connection with various claims and litigation arising out of, or related to, the agricultural business, and has been indemnifying Pharmacia when liability has been imposed or settlement has been reached regarding such claims and litigation.
In connection with its spin-off in 1997, Solutia assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, liabilities related to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses. As the result of its reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, Solutia’s indemnification obligations relating to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses are primarily limited to sites that Solutia has owned or operated. In addition, in connection with its spin-off that was completed in 2002, New Monsanto assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, any liabilities primarily related to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses, including, but not limited to, any such liabilities that Solutia assumed. Solutia’s and New Monsanto’s assumption of, and agreement to indemnify Pharmacia for, these liabilities apply to pending actions and any future actions related to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses in which Pharmacia is named as a defendant, including, without limitation, actions asserting environmental claims, including alleged exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls. Solutia and/or New Monsanto are defending Pharmacia in connection with various claims and litigation arising out of, or related to, Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses, and have been indemnifying Pharmacia when liability has been imposed or settlement has been reached regarding such claims and litigation.
Environmental Matters
In 2009, we submitted a revised site-wide feasibility study with regard to the Wyeth Holdings Corporation (formerly, American Cyanamid Company) discontinued industrial chemical facility in Bound Brook, New Jersey. In 2011, Wyeth Holdings Corporation executed an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Removal Action (the 2011 Administrative Settlement Agreement) with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with regard to the Bound Brook facility. In accordance with the 2011 Administrative Settlement Agreement, we completed construction of an interim remedy. In 2012, the EPA issued a final remediation plan for the Bound Brook facility’s main plant area. In 2013, Wyeth Holdings Corporation (now Wyeth Holdings LLC) entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent with the EPA to allow us to undertake detailed engineering design of the remedy for the main plant area and to perform a focused feasibility study for two adjacent lagoons. In 2015, the U.S., on behalf of the EPA, filed a complaint and consent decree with the federal District Court for the District of New Jersey that allows Wyeth Holdings LLC to complete the design and to implement the remedy for the main plant area. The consent decree (which supersedes the 2011 Administrative Settlement Agreement) was entered by the District Court in 2015. In 2018, the EPA issued a final remediation plan for the two adjacent lagoons. In 2019, Wyeth Holdings LLC entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent with the EPA to allow us to undertake detailed engineering design of the remedy for the lagoons. In September 2021, the U.S., on behalf of the EPA, filed a complaint and consent decree with the federal District Court for the District of New Jersey, which the court approved in November 2021, that will allow Wyeth Holdings LLC to complete the design and implement the remedy for the two adjacent lagoons.
We have accrued for the estimated costs of the site remedies for the Bound Brook facility.
We are a party to a number of other proceedings brought under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, and other state, local or foreign laws in which the primary relief sought is the cost of past and/or future remediation.
Contracts with Iraqi Ministry of Health
In 2017, a number of U.S. service members, civilians, and their families brought a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia against a number of pharmaceutical and medical devices companies, including Pfizer and certain of its subsidiaries, alleging that the defendants violated the U.S. Anti-Terrorism Act. The complaint alleges that the defendants provided funding for terrorist organizations through their sales practices pursuant to pharmaceutical and medical device contracts with the Iraqi Ministry of Health, and seeks monetary relief. In July 2020, the District Court granted defendants’ motions to dismiss and dismissed all of plaintiffs’ claims. In January 2022, the Court of Appeals reversed the District Court’s decision. In February 2022, the defendants filed for en banc review of the Court of Appeals’ decision.
Allergan Complaint for Indemnity
In 2019, Pfizer was named as a defendant in a complaint, along with King, filed by Allergan Finance LLC (Allergan) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, asserting claims for indemnity related to Kadian, which was owned for a short period by King in 2008, prior to Pfizer's acquisition of King in 2010. This suit was voluntarily discontinued without prejudice in January 2021.
Viatris Securities Litigation
In October 2021, a putative class action was filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania on behalf of former Mylan N.V. shareholders who received Viatris common stock in exchange for Mylan shares in connection with the spin-off of the Upjohn Business and its combination with Mylan (the Transactions). Viatris, Pfizer, and certain of each

company’s current and former officers, directors and employees are named as defendants. The complaint alleges that the defendants violated certain provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with certain disclosures made in or omitted from the registration statement and related prospectus issued in connection with the Transactions. Plaintiff seeks damages, costs and expenses and other equitable and injunctive relief.
A4. Legal Proceedings––Government Investigations
We are subject to extensive regulation by government agencies in the U.S., other developed markets and multiple emerging markets in which we operate. Criminal charges, substantial fines and/or civil penalties, limitations on our ability to conduct business in applicable jurisdictions, corporate integrity or deferred prosecution agreements, as well as reputational harm and increased public interest in the matter could result from government investigations in the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which we do business. These matters often involve government requests for information on a voluntary basis or through subpoenas after which the government may seek additional information through follow-up requests or additional subpoenas. In addition, in a qui tam lawsuit in which the government declines to intervene, the relator may still pursue a suit for the recovery of civil damages and penalties on behalf of the government. Among the investigations by government agencies are the matters discussed below.
Greenstone Investigations
U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust Division Investigation
Since July 2017, the U.S. Department of Justice's Antitrust Division has been investigating our former Greenstone generics business. We believe this is related to an ongoing broader antitrust investigation of the generic pharmaceutical industry. We have produced records relating to this investigation.
State Attorneys General and Multi-District Generics Antitrust Litigation
In April 2018, Greenstone received requests for information from the Antitrust Department of the Connecticut Office of the Attorney General. In May 2019, Attorneys General of more than 40 states plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico filed a complaint against a number of pharmaceutical companies, including Greenstone and Pfizer. The matter has been consolidated with a Multi-District Litigation in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. As to Greenstone and Pfizer, the complaint alleges anticompetitive conduct in violation of federal and state antitrust laws and state consumer protection laws. In June 2020, the State Attorneys General filed a new complaint against a large number of companies, including Greenstone and Pfizer, making similar allegations, but concerning a new set of drugs. This complaint was transferred to the Multi-District Litigation in July 2020. The Multi-District Litigation also includes civil complaints filed by private plaintiffs and state counties against Pfizer, Greenstone and a significant number of other defendants asserting allegations that generally overlap with those asserted by the State Attorneys General.
Subpoena relating to Manufacturing of Quillivant XR
In October 2018, we received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) seeking records relating to our relationship with another drug manufacturer and its production and manufacturing of drugs including, but not limited to, Quillivant XR.

B. Guarantees and Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business and in connection with the sale of assets and businesses and other transactions, we often indemnify our counterparties against certain liabilities that may arise in connection with the transaction or that are related to events and activities prior to or following a transaction. If the indemnified party were to make a successful claim pursuant to the terms of the indemnification, we may be required to reimburse the loss. These indemnifications are generally subject to various restrictions and limitations. Historically, we have not paid significant amounts under these provisions and, as of July 3, 2022, the estimated fair value of these indemnification obligations is not material to Pfizer. See Note 2C for a description of the March 2022 indemnity provided by Pfizer to GSK in connection with the issuance of notes by the Consumer Healthcare JV. In conjunction with the completion of GSK’s demerger transactions in July 2022, GSK’s guarantee and our related indemnification of GSK’s guarantee were terminated.
In addition, in connection with our entry into certain agreements and other transactions, our counterparties may be obligated to indemnify us. For example, in November 2020, we and Mylan completed the transaction to spin-off our Upjohn Business and combine it with Mylan to form Viatris. As part of the transaction and as previously disclosed, each of Viatris and Pfizer has agreed to assume, and to indemnify the other for, liabilities arising out of certain matters. Also, our global agreement with BioNTech to co-develop a mRNA-based coronavirus vaccine program aimed at preventing COVID-19 infection, includes certain indemnity provisions pursuant to which each of BioNTech and Pfizer has agreed to indemnify the other for certain liabilities that may arise in connection with certain third-party claims relating to Comirnaty.
We have also guaranteed the long-term debt of certain companies that we acquired and that now are subsidiaries of Pfizer. See Note 7D.
C. Contingent Consideration for Acquisitions
We may be required to make payments to sellers for certain prior business combinations that are contingent upon future events or outcomes. For additional information, see Note 1E in our 2021 Form 10-K.
Note 13. Segment, Geographic and Other Revenue Information
A. Segment Information
We manage our commercial operations through two operating segments: Biopharma and PC1. The Biopharma and PC1 segments are each led by a single manager. Biopharma is the only reportable segment. Biopharma is a science-based medicines business that includes six therapeutic areas – Vaccines, Hospital, Oncology, Internal Medicine, Rare Disease, and Inflammation & Immunology. The Hospital therapeutic area commercializes our global portfolio of sterile injectable and anti-infective medicines, as well as an oral COVID-19 treatment.
Each operating segment has responsibility for its commercial activities. Regional commercial organizations market, distribute and sell our products and are supported by global platform functions that are responsible for the research, development, manufacturing and supply of our products and global corporate enabling functions. Biopharma receives its R&D services from WRDM and GPD. These services include IPR&D projects for new investigational products and additional indications for in-line products. Each operating segment has a geographic footprint across developed and emerging markets. Our chief operating decision maker uses the revenues and earnings of the operating segments, among other factors, for performance evaluation and resource allocation.
Other Costs and Business Activities––Certain pre-tax costs are not allocated to our operating segment results, such as costs associated with: (i) R&D and medical expenses managed by our WRDM and GPD organizations, (ii) corporate enabling functions and other corporate costs, (iii) overhead costs primarily associated with our manufacturing operations, (iv) our share of earnings from the Consumer Healthcare JV, as well as (v) all amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related items, and certain significant items representing substantive and/or unusual, and in some cases recurring, items that are evaluated on an

individual basis by management and that, either as a result of their nature or size, would not be expected to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis. Beginning in the first quarter of 2022, acquisition-related items may now include purchase accounting impacts that previously would have been included as part of a reconciling item entitled “Purchase accounting adjustments” that we no longer separately present, such as: (i) the incremental charge to cost of sales from the sale of acquired inventory that was written up to fair value, (ii) depreciation related to the increase/decrease in fair value of acquired fixed assets, (iii) amortization related to the increase in fair value of acquired debt and (iv) the fair value changes for contingent consideration. The operating results of PC1, our global contract development and manufacturing organization, are included in Other business activities.
Segment Assets––We manage our assets on a total company basis, not by operating segment, as our operating assets are shared or commingled. Therefore, our chief operating decision maker does not regularly review any asset information by operating segment and, accordingly, we do not report asset information by operating segment. Total assets were $195 billion as of July 3, 2022 and $181 billion as of December 31, 2021.

(a)On December 31, 2021, we completed the sale of our Meridian subsidiary. Prior to its sale, Meridian was managed as part of the Hospital therapeutic area. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, the financial results of Meridian were reflected as discontinued operations. Prior-period financial information has been restated, as appropriate. See Note 1A.
(b)At the beginning of our fiscal fourth quarter of 2021, we reorganized our commercial operations and began to manage our commercial operations through a new global structure consisting of two operating segments, each led by a single manager: Biopharma, our innovative science-based biopharmaceutical business, and PC1. PC1, which previously had been managed within the Hospital therapeutic area, includes revenues from our contract manufacturing, including certain Comirnaty-related manufacturing activities performed on behalf of BioNTech ($55 million and $101 million for the second quarter and the first six months of 2022, respectively, and $87 million for both the second quarter and the first six months of 2021), and revenues from our active pharmaceutical ingredient sales operation, as well as revenues related to our manufacturing and supply agreements with former legacy Pfizer businesses/partnerships, including but not limited to, transitional manufacturing and supply agreements with Viatris following the spin-off of the Upjohn Business. We have revised prior-period information to conform to the current management structure.
(c)Prevnar family include revenues from Prevnar 13/Prevenar 13 (pediatric and adult) and Prevnar 20/Apexxnar (adult).
(d)Immunoglobulin (Ig) portfolio includes the revenues from Panzyga, Octagam and Cutaquig.
(e)Biosimilars are highly similar versions of approved and authorized biological medicines and primarily include revenues from Zirabev, Inflectra, Ruxience, Retacrit and Trazimera.
(f)Erbitux® is a registered trademark of ImClone LLC.
(g)Total Sterile Injectable Pharmaceuticals represents the total of all branded and generic injectable products in the Hospital therapeutic area, including anti-infective sterile injectable pharmaceuticals.

Remaining Performance Obligations––Contracted revenue expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for firm orders in long-term contracts to supply Comirnaty to our customers totaled approximately $24 billion as of July 3, 2022, which includes amounts received in advance and deferred, as well as amounts that will be invoiced as we deliver these products to our customers in future periods. Of this amount, we expect to recognize revenue of approximately $12 billion in 2022, $12 billion in 2023 and $200 million in 2024. Remaining performance obligations exclude arrangements with an original expected contract duration of less than one year.
Deferred Revenues––Our deferred revenues primarily relate to advance payments received or receivable from various government or government sponsored customers in international markets for supply of Comirnaty and Paxlovid. The deferred revenues related to Comirnaty and Paxlovid total $3.9 billion as of July 3, 2022, with $3.7 billion and $198 million recorded in current and noncurrent liabilities, respectively. The deferred revenues related to Comirnaty total $3.3 billion as of December 31, 2021, with $3.0 billion and $249 million recorded in current liabilities and noncurrent liabilities, respectively. There were no deferred revenues associated with Paxlovid as of December 31, 2021. The increase in Comirnaty and Paxlovid deferred revenues during the first six months of 2022 was primarily the result of additional advance payments received as we entered

into new or amended contracts, including new advance payments received for Paxlovid contracts, less amounts recognized in Revenues as we delivered the products to our customers and the impact of foreign exchange. During the second quarter and first six months of 2022, we recognized revenue of $800 million and $2.4 billion, respectively, that was included in the balance of Comirnaty deferred revenues as of December 31, 2021. The Comirnaty and Paxlovid deferred revenues as of July 3, 2022 will be recognized in Revenues proportionately as we transfer control of the products to our customers and satisfy our performance obligation under the contracts, with the amounts included in current liabilities expected to be recognized in Revenues within the next 12 months, and the amounts included in noncurrent liabilities expected to be recognized in Revenues in the last six months of 2023 and in the first quarter of 2024. Deferred revenues associated with contracts for other products were not significant as of July 3, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW OF OUR PERFORMANCE, OPERATING ENVIRONMENT, STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK
References to operational variances pertain to period-over-period changes that exclude the impact of foreign exchange rates. Although foreign exchange rate changes are part of our business, they are not within our control and since they can mask positive or negative trends in the business, we believe presenting operational variances excluding these foreign exchange changes provides useful information to evaluate our results.
Our Business and Strategy
We apply science and our global resources to bring therapies to people that extend and significantly improve their lives through the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of biopharmaceutical products worldwide. At the beginning of our fiscal fourth quarter of 2021, we reorganized our commercial operations and began to manage our commercial operations through a new global structure consisting of two operating segments: Biopharma and PC1. Biopharma is the only reportable segment. See Note 1A. We expect to incur costs of approximately $700 million in connection with separating Upjohn, of which approximately 80% has been incurred since inception and through the second quarter of 2022. These charges include costs and expenses related to separation of legal entities and transaction costs.
Beginning in our third fiscal quarter of 2022, we are making several additional organizational changes to further transform our operations. These changes include establishing a new commercial structure within Biopharma that is designed to better support Comirnaty and Paxlovid in a potential full commercial setting while optimizing our performance across three broad therapeutic areas:
Primary Care will consist of our COVID-19 products (currently Comirnaty and Paxlovid), as well as the Internal Medicine and Vaccines product portfolios, including potential future mRNA products.
Specialty Care will consist of our Inflammation & Immunology, Rare Disease and Hospital (excluding Paxlovid) product portfolios.
Oncology will consist of our Oncology product portfolio.
We are currently evaluating what impacts these organizational changes may have on our financial reporting.
For additional information about our business, strategy and operating environment, see the Item 1. Business section and Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook section within MD&A of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Our Business Development Initiatives
We are committed to strategically capitalizing on growth opportunities, primarily by advancing our own product pipeline and maximizing the value of our existing products, but also through various business development activities.
Our significant recent business development activities include the transactions discussed in Note 2 and the following:
Acquisition of Global Blood Therapeutics, Inc. (GBT)––In August 2022, we and GBT announced that the companies entered into an agreement under which we will acquire GBT, a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery, development and delivery of life-changing treatments that provide hope to underserved patient communities, starting with sickle cell disease. Under the terms of the agreement, we will acquire all outstanding shares of GBT for $68.50 per share in cash for a total enterprise value of approximately $5.4 billion, including debt and net of cash acquired. The proposed transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals and approval by GBT’s stockholders.
Acquisition of ReViral––In June 2022, which falls in our international third quarter of 2022, we completed our acquisition of ReViral, a privately held, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing novel antiviral therapeutics that target respiratory syncytial virus, for a total consideration of up to $525 million, including an upfront payment of $425 million upon closing and an additional $100 million contingent upon future development milestones.
Acquisition of Biohaven––In May 2022, we and Biohaven announced that the companies entered into an agreement under which we will acquire Biohaven, the maker of Nurtec® ODT (rimegepant), an innovative dual-acting migraine therapy approved for both acute treatment and episodic prevention of migraine in adults. Under the terms of the agreement, we will acquire all outstanding common shares of Biohaven not already owned by us for $148.50 per share, in cash. The proposed transaction includes the acquisition of Biohaven’s CGRP programs, including rimegepant, zavegepant and a portfolio of five pre-clinical CGRP assets. Biohaven common shareholders, including Pfizer, will also receive 0.5 of a share of New Biohaven, a new publicly traded company that will retain Biohaven’s non-CGRP development stage pipeline compounds, per Biohaven common share. Pfizer will pay transaction consideration totaling approximately $11.6 billion in cash. Pfizer will also make payments at closing to settle Biohaven’s third party debt and for the redemption of all outstanding shares of Biohaven’s redeemable preferred stock.
37


This agreement follows on the November 2021 collaboration for the commercialization of rimegepant and zavegepant outside the U.S., in connection with which Pfizer acquired 2.6% of Biohaven’s common stock. New Biohaven will also have the right to receive tiered royalties from Pfizer on any annual net sales of rimegepant and zavegepant in the U.S. in excess of $5.25 billion. The proposed transaction is subject to the completion of the New Biohaven spin-off transaction and other customary closing conditions. All required antitrust clearances have been received. The companies expect the transaction to close by early 2023.
For a description of the more significant recent transactions through February 24, 2022, the filing date of our 2021 Form 10-K, see Note 2 in our 2021 Form 10-K.
Our Second Quarter 2022 and First Six Months of 2022 Performance
Revenues––Revenues increased $8.8 billion, or 47%, in the second quarter of 2022 to $27.7 billion from $18.9 billion in the second quarter of 2021, reflecting an operational increase of $10.1 billion, or 53%, as well as an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $1.3 billion, or 7%. The operational increase was primarily driven by growth from Paxlovid and Comirnaty. Excluding the impact of Paxlovid and Comirnaty, revenues increased 1% operationally, reflecting strong growth in Eliquis, the Prevnar family and Vyndaqel/Vyndamax, partially offset by declines in Chantix/Champix, Xeljanz and Sutent.
Revenues increased $20.0 billion, or 60%, in the first six months of 2022 to $53.4 billion from $33.4 billion in the first six months of 2021, reflecting an operational increase of $22.0 billion, or 66%, as well as an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $2.0 billion, or 6%. The operational increase was primarily driven by growth from Comirnaty and Paxlovid. Excluding the impact of Comirnaty and Paxlovid, revenues increased 1% operationally, reflecting strong growth in Eliquis, the Prevnar family, Vyndaqel/Vyndamax and Biosimilars, partially offset by declines in Chantix/Champix, Xeljanz and Sutent.

Our Operating Environment
We, like other businesses in our industry, are subject to certain industry-specific challenges. These include, among others, the topics listed below, as well as in the Item 1. Business––Government Regulation and Price Constraints and Item 1A. Risk Factors sections, and the Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook––Our Operating Environment section of the MD&A of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Intellectual Property Rights and Collaboration/Licensing Rights––The loss, expiration or invalidation of intellectual property rights, patent litigation settlements with manufacturers and the expiration of co-promotion and licensing rights can have a material adverse effect on our revenues. Certain of our products have experienced patent-based expirations or loss of regulatory exclusivity in certain markets in the last few years, and we expect certain products to face increased generic competition over the next few years. While additional patent expiries will continue, we expect a moderate impact of reduced revenues due to patent expiries from 2022 through 2025. We continue to vigorously defend our patent rights against infringement, and we will continue to support efforts that strengthen worldwide recognition of patent rights while taking necessary steps to help ensure appropriate patient access.
For additional information on patent rights we consider most significant in relation to our business as a whole, see the Item 1. Business––Patents and Other Intellectual Property Rights section of our 2021 Form 10-K. For a discussion of recent developments with respect to patent litigation, see Note 12A1.
Regulatory Environment/Pricing and Access––Government and Other Payer Group Pressures––Governments globally, as well as private third-party payers in the U.S., may use a variety of measures to control costs, including, among others, proposing
38


pricing reform or legislation, employing formularies to control costs, cross country collaboration and procurement, price cuts, mandatory rebates, health technology assessments, forced localization as a condition of market access, “international reference pricing” (i.e., the practice of a country linking its regulated medicine prices to those of other countries), quality consistency evaluation processes and volume-based procurement. We anticipate that these and similar initiatives will continue to increase pricing and access pressures globally. In the U.S., we recently implemented a policy that will help improve contract pharmacy integrity. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has sent letters to numerous manufacturers that have also implemented contract pharmacy integrity initiatives expressing the view that their programs are in violation of the 340B statute, and referring those programs for potential enforcement action. We believe that our program is consistent with the statute. Additional legal or legislative developments with respect to the 340B program may have an adverse impact on our integrity initiative, and we may face enforcement action or penalties, depending upon such developments. For additional information, see the Item 1. Business––Pricing Pressures and Managed Care Organizations and ––Government Regulation and Price Constraints sections in our 2021 Form 10-K and the Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook––Our Operating Environment section of the MD&A in our 2021 Form 10-K.
Product Supply––We periodically encounter supply delays, disruptions and shortages, including due to voluntary product recalls. In response to requests from various regulatory authorities, manufacturers across the pharmaceutical industry, including Pfizer, are evaluating their product portfolios for the potential presence or formation of nitrosamines. This has led to recalls, including our voluntary recall of Chantix in 2021 and additional voluntary recalls initiated for other products in 2022 due to the presence of nitrosamines above the applicable acceptable intake limit, and may lead to additional recalls or other market actions for Pfizer products. For information on our Chantix recall in 2021 and risks related to product manufacturing, see the Item 1A. Risk Factors––Product Manufacturing, Sales and Marketing Risks section of our 2021 Form 10-K.
The Global Economic Environment
In addition to the industry-specific factors discussed above, we, like other businesses of our size and global extent of activities, are exposed to economic cycles. For additional information, see the Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook––The Global Economic Environment section of the MD&A of our 2021 Form 10-K.
Russia/Ukraine Conflict––Our global operations may be impacted by certain factors in the global economic environment including impacts of political or civil unrest or military action, including the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Consistent with our commitment to putting patients first, we are maintaining the supply of medicines to Russia, including the provision of needed medicines to patients already enrolled in clinical trials. Effective March 14, 2022, Pfizer is donating the equivalent of profits of our Russian subsidiary to causes that provide direct humanitarian support to the people of Ukraine, in addition to the company’s ongoing efforts to support the humanitarian response in the region. Our first down payment of $5 million is going to eight global and local non-governmental organizations to support humanitarian relief and response efforts. We will continue to divert these profits to the Ukrainian relief efforts until peace is achieved. Additionally, we are not initiating new clinical trials in Russia, have stopped recruiting new patients in our ongoing clinical trials in the country, and halted all new investments with local suppliers intended to build manufacturing capacity in Russia. For both the six months ended July 3, 2022 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the business of our Russia and Ukraine subsidiaries represented less than 1% of our consolidated revenues and assets, and while we are monitoring the effects of the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the situation continues to evolve and the long-term implications, including the broader economic consequences of the conflict, are difficult to predict at this time. While as of now, we do not anticipate any significant negative impacts on our business from this conflict, continued regional instability, geopolitical shifts, potential additional sanctions and other restrictive measures against Russia, neighboring countries or allies of Russia, and any retaliatory measures taken by Russia, neighboring countries or allies of Russia, in response to such measures could adversely affect the global macroeconomic environment, our operations, currency exchange rates and financial markets, which could in turn adversely impact our business and results of operations.

COVID-19 Pandemic––The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business, operations and financial condition and results.
Our Response to COVID-19
Pfizer is continuing to help lead the global effort to confront the COVID-19 pandemic by advancing a vision for industry-wide collaboration while continuing to make significant investments in breakthrough science and global manufacturing.
Comirnaty/BNT162b2:
We have collaborated with BioNTech to jointly develop Comirnaty/BNT162b2, a mRNA-based coronavirus vaccine to help prevent COVID-19. For additional information, see the Product Developments section of this MD&A. We continue to evaluate our vaccine and the short- and long-term safety and efficacy of Comirnaty. We are also studying monovalent, bivalent and variant-adapted vaccine candidates to potentially help prevent COVID-19 caused by variants of concern, as well as a next-generation mRNA vaccine candidate.
The companies have entered into agreements to supply pre-specified doses of Comirnaty in 2022 with multiple developed and emerging countries around the world and are continuing to deliver doses of Comirnaty to governments under such
39


agreements. We also signed agreements with multiple countries to supply Comirnaty doses in 2023 and are currently negotiating similar potential agreements with multiple countries as well. Additionally, we will continue our efforts to help ensure equitable access to Comirnaty and anticipate delivering at least two billion doses to low- and middle-income countries—one billion of which were delivered in 2021 and approximately 460 million of which were delivered in the first half of 2022. Certain of the aforementioned doses to low- and middle-income countries are being supplied to the U.S. government at a not-for-profit price to be donated to the world’s poorest nations.
As of July 28, 2022, we forecasted approximately $32 billion of revenues for Comirnaty in 2022, with gross profit to be split evenly with BioNTech, which includes doses expected to be delivered in fiscal 2022, primarily under contracts signed as of mid-July 2022.
Paxlovid:
In December 2021, the FDA authorized the emergency use of Paxlovid, a novel oral COVID-19 treatment, for the treatment of mild-to-moderate COVID-19 in adults and pediatric patients (12 years of age and older weighing at least 40 kg [88 lbs]) with positive results of direct SARS-CoV-2 viral testing, and who are at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death. Paxlovid has been granted an authorization or approval in many other countries. In June 2022, we submitted an NDA to the FDA for approval of Paxlovid for the treatment of COVID-19 in both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals who are at high risk for progression to severe illness from COVID-19 consistent with the current EUA. For additional information, see the Product Developments section of this MD&A.
We continue to evaluate Paxlovid in other populations, including in non-hospitalized, symptomatic, pediatric patients with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 who are at risk of progression to severe disease (Phase 2/3 study, EPIC-PEDS (Evaluation of Protease Inhibition for COVID-19 in Pediatric Patients)). We also plan to study Paxlovid in those who are immunocompromised, hospitalized with severe COVID-19 and at increased risk for poor outcomes due to the disease, or who are pregnant. In June 2022, we announced that due to a very low rate of hospitalization or death observed in the standard-risk patient population, we ceased enrollment into the Phase 2/3 EPIC-SR (Evaluation of Protease Inhibition for COVID-19 in Standard-Risk Patients) study evaluating the use of Paxlovid in patients who are at standard risk for developing severe COVID-19. Pfizer had previously announced that the primary endpoint for EPIC-SR was not met.
We have entered into agreements to supply pre-specified courses of Paxlovid to multiple countries, such as the U.S. and U.K., as well as an agreement with UNICEF to supply low- and middle-income countries. Through the first half of 2022, we produced 30 million treatment courses, and we have capacity to meet the demand for Paxlovid in a flexible manner going forward.
As of July 28, 2022, we forecasted approximately $22 billion of revenues for Paxlovid in 2022, which includes treatment courses expected to be delivered in fiscal 2022, primarily relating to supply contracts signed or committed as of mid-July 2022.
Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business and Operations
As part of our on-going monitoring and assessment, we have made certain assumptions regarding the pandemic for purposes of our operational planning and financial projections, including assumptions regarding the duration, severity and the global macroeconomic impact of the pandemic, as well as COVID-19 vaccine and oral COVID-19 treatment revenues, supply and contracts, which remain dynamic. Despite careful tracking and planning, we are unable to accurately predict the extent of the impact of the pandemic on our business, operations and financial condition and results due to the uncertainty of future developments. We are focused on all aspects of our business and are implementing measures aimed at mitigating issues where possible, including by using digital technology to assist in operations for our commercial, manufacturing, R&D and corporate enabling functions globally.
As discussed in our 2021 Form 10-K, apart from our introduction of Comirnaty/BNT162b2 and Paxlovid, our business and operations were impacted by the pandemic in various ways; certain of those impacts have continued in 2022. For additional detail and discussion on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on certain of our products, sales and marketing, supply chain and clinical trials, see the Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income—Revenues by Geography and Revenues—Selected Product Discussion sections within this MD&A and the Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook—The Global Economic Environment—COVID-19 Pandemic section of the MD&A of our 2021 Form 10-K.
We will continue to pursue efforts to maintain the continuity of our operations while monitoring for new developments related to the pandemic. Future developments could result in additional favorable or unfavorable impacts on our business, operations or financial condition and results. If we experience significant disruption in our manufacturing or supply chains or significant disruptions in clinical trials or other operations, if demand for our products is significantly reduced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, or if demand for our COVID-19 vaccine or oral COVID-19 treatment is reduced or no longer exists, we could experience a material adverse impact on our business, operations and financial condition and results.

Revenue Deductions––Our gross product revenues are subject to a variety of deductions, which generally are estimated and recorded in the same period that the revenues are recognized. These deductions represent estimates of related obligations and, as such, knowledge and judgment are required when estimating the impact of these revenue deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. Historically, adjustments to these estimates to reflect actual results or updated expectations, have not been material to our overall business and generally have been less than 1% of revenues. Product-specific rebates, however, can have a significant impact on year-over-year individual product revenue growth trends.

*For the U.S., the filing date is the date on which the FDA accepted our submission. For the EU, the filing date is the date on which the EMA validated our submission.
(a)Being developed in collaboration with BioNTech. Comirnaty/BNT162b2 is approved by the FDA for individuals 12 years and older (30-µg, 2-dose primary series) and is FDA authorized to provide: (i) a 3-µg, 3-dose primary series to individuals 6 months through 4 years of age, (ii) a 10-µg, 2-dose primary series to individuals 5-11 years of age, (iii) a third 10-µg primary series dose to individuals 5-11 years of age with certain kinds of immunocompromise, (iv) a 30-µg, 2-dose primary series to individuals 12 years of age and older, (iv) a third 30-µg primary series dose to individuals 12 years of age and older with certain kinds of immunocompromise, (v) a single 10-µg booster dose to individuals 5-11 years of age who have completed a primary series with Comirnaty/BNT162b2, (vi) a 30-µg, first booster dose to individuals 12 years of age and older who have completed a primary series with Comirnaty/BNT162b2, (vii) a 30-µg, first booster dose to individuals 18 years of age and older who have completed primary vaccination with a different authorized or approved COVID-19 vaccine (booster schedule based on labeling information of vaccine used for primary series), (viii) a 30-µg, second booster dose to individuals 50 years of age and older who have received a first booster dose of any authorized or approved COVID-19 vaccine and (ix) a 30-µg, second booster dose to individuals 12 years of age and older with certain kinds of immunocompromise and who have received a first booster dose of any authorized or approved COVID-19 vaccine. Comirnaty/BNT162b2 has been granted CMA by the EC to prevent COVID-19 in people aged 5 years and older. The vaccine is administered as a 2-dose series, 3 weeks apart. Adults and adolescents from the age of 12 are given 30-µg per dose; children aged 5 to 11 years are given 10-µg per dose. In addition, the CMA has been expanded to include a booster dose (third dose) at least 3 months after the second dose in individuals 12 years of age and older. A third primary course dose may be administered at least 28 days after the second dose to people aged 5 years and older with a severely weakened immune system. In July 2022, Pfizer and BioNTech completed a submission to the EMA for an Omicron-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine candidate, based on the BA.1 sub-lineage, for individuals 12 years of age and older. In Japan, Comirnaty/BNT162b2 has been granted exceptional approval by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare to prevent infections caused by SARS-CoV-2 in people aged 5 years and older. The vaccine is administered as a 2-dose series, 3 weeks apart. Adults and adolescents from the age of 12 are given 30-µg per dose; children aged 5 to 11 years are given 10-µg per dose. In addition, the exceptional approval has been expanded to include a booster dose (third dose) at least 5 months after the second dose in individuals 12 years of age and older.
(b)Being developed in collaboration with Myovant. In June 2022, the FDA accepted for review a sNDA for Myfembree (relugolix 40 mg, estradiol 1 mg, and norethindrone acetate 0.5 mg) proposing updates to Myfembree’s U.S. Prescribing Information based on safety and efficacy data from the Phase 3 LIBERTY randomized withdrawal study in premenopausal women with heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids for up to two years. The PDUFA goal date for this sNDA is January 29, 2023.
(c)Being developed in collaboration with OPKO. In January 2022, Pfizer and OPKO received a Complete Response Letter (CRL) from the FDA for the BLA for somatrogon. Discussions are ongoing with the FDA regarding the CRL and how to best address their concerns.

(d)In October 2021, the CDC’s ACIP voted to recommend Prevnar 20 for routine use in adults. Specifically, the ACIP voted to recommend the following: (i) adults 65 years of age or older who have not previously received a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine or whose previous vaccination history is unknown should receive a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (either pneumococcal 20-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV20) or pneumococcal 15-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV15)). If PCV15 is used, this should be followed by a dose of pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23); and (ii) adults aged 19 years of age or older with certain underlying medical conditions or other risk factors who have not previously received a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine or whose previous vaccination history is unknown should receive a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (either PCV20 or PCV15). If PCV15 is used, this should be followed by a dose of PPSV23. The recommendations were published in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report on January 28, 2022. The publication also notes “for adults who have received pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) but have not completed their recommended pneumococcal vaccine series with PPSV23, one dose of Prevnar 20 may be used if PPSV23 is not available.”
(e)In January 2022, the EMA approved the CMA of Paxlovid for treating COVID-19 in adults who do not require supplemental oxygen and who are at increased risk of the disease becoming severe. In June 2022, we announced the submission of an NDA to the FDA for approval of Paxlovid for the treatment of COVID-19 in both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals who are at high risk for progression to severe illness from COVID-19.
(f)Under a commercialization arrangement with Biohaven.
In December 2021, in light of the results from the completed required postmarketing safety study of Xeljanz, ORAL Surveillance (A3921133), the U.S. label for Xeljanz was revised. In addition, at the request of the EC, the PRAC of the EMA has adopted a referral procedure under Article 20 of Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 to assess safety information relating to oral JAK inhibitors authorized for inflammatory diseases, including Xeljanz and Cibinqo, which is ongoing. For additional information, see Item 1A. Risk Factors—Post-Authorization/Approval Data and the Product Development sections of our 2021 Form 10-K.
In China, the following products received regulatory approvals in the last twelve months: Cresemba for fungal infection and Besponsa for second line acute lymphoblastic leukemia, both in December 2021; Paxlovid for COVID-19 infection in February 2022; Cibinqo for atopic dermatitis in April 2022; Lorbrena for non-small cell lung cancer (first line and second line therapy) in April 2022.

(i)In March 2022, Pfizer announced results from the CLOVER trial (Clostridium difficile Vaccine Efficacy Trial), a pivotal Phase 3 study evaluating its Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) vaccine candidate (PF-06425090) in the prevention of C. difficile infection (CDI). Initial analyses of two protocol defined secondary endpoints indicated a favorable benefit in reducing CDI severity and 100% vaccine efficacy in preventing medically attended CDI, although the trial did not meet its pre-specified primary endpoint of prevention of primary CDI. Safety reviews indicated that the investigational vaccine was safe and well tolerated. Pfizer is evaluating next steps for the program in coordination with regulatory agencies.

In April 2022, Pfizer shared top-line results from the Paxlovid Phase 2/3 EPIC-PEP (Evaluation of Protease Inhibition for COVID-19 in Post-Exposure Prophylaxis) study in adults living in the same household as someone with a confirmed COVID-19 infection observing a risk reduction of 32% and 37% in adults who received Paxlovid for five and ten days, respectively, to prevent infection. These results, however, were not statistically significant and, as such, the primary endpoint of reducing the risk of confirmed and symptomatic COVID-19 infection in adults who had been exposed to the virus through a household contact was not met. In June 2022, an updated analysis from 1,153 patients enrolled in Paxlovid EPIC-SR (Evaluation of Protease Inhibition for COVID-19 in Standard Risk Patients) through December 2021 showed a non-significant 51% relative risk reduction (secondary endpoint, treatment arm: 5/576; placebo: 10/569). The primary endpoint in the EPIC-SR study also was not met. A sub-group analysis of 721 vaccinated adults with at least one risk factor for progression to severe COVID-19 showed a non-significant 57% relative risk reduction in hospitalization or death (treatment arm: 3/361; placebo: 7/360). Additional analyses of secondary endpoint data showed that treatment with Paxlovid resulted in a nominally significant 62% decrease in COVID-19-related medical visits per day across all patients, relative to placebo (p=0.0228). Types of medical visits included trips to the emergency room, urgent care, hospital admissions, and telehealth calls, among others. An additional pre-specified descriptive analysis showed a 72% reduction in the average number of days in hospital among Paxlovid-treated patients versus placebo in EPIC-SR. Other not statistically significant findings included no Paxlovid-treated patients admitted to the intensive care unit, compared to three in the placebo group, and no deaths in patients who received Paxlovid with one death in the placebo group. Due to a very low rate of hospitalization or death observed in the standard-risk patient population, Pfizer decided to cease enrollment into EPIC-SR and include available data in the NDA submission to the FDA to support the use of Paxlovid in appropriate individuals at high risk of progression to severe illness. For additional information on Paxlovid, please see the COVID-19 Pandemic section of this MD&A.
In August 2022, we announced that an interim futility analysis of the global Phase 3 trial, REALM-DCM, designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PF-07265803 in patients with symptomatic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) due to a mutation of the gene encoding the lamin A/C protein (LMNA), indicated the trial is unlikely to meet its primary endpoint upon completion. Based on these results, the Phase 3 trial and further development of PF-07265803 will be discontinued. This decision is not based on safety concerns.

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales increased $1.7 billion in the second quarter and $7.5 billion in the first six months of 2022, primarily due to:
the impact of Comirnaty, which includes a charge for the 50% gross profit split with BioNTech and applicable royalty expenses;
the impact of Paxlovid; and
a $450 million write-off of inventory related to COVID-19 products that have exceeded or are expected to exceed their approved shelf-lives prior to being used,
partially offset by:
the favorable impact of foreign exchange rates.
The decrease in Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues in the second quarter of 2022 was primarily due to favorable changes in sales mix, including significant sales of Paxlovid, as well as the favorable impact of foreign exchange rates, and an increase in alliance revenues, which have no associated cost of sales, partially offset by the impact of Comirnaty and the inventory write-offs related to COVID-19 products as discussed above.
The increase in Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues in the first six months of 2022 was primarily due to the impact of Comirnaty and the inventory write-off related to COVID-19 products as discussed above, partially offset by favorable changes in sales mix, including significant sales of Paxlovid, as well as the favorable impact of foreign exchange rates, and an increase in alliance revenues, which have no associated cost of sales.
Selling, Informational and Administrative (SI&A) Expenses
SI&A expenses increased $125 million in the second quarter of 2022, mostly due to:
increased spending on Paxlovid and Comirnaty and a higher provision for healthcare reform fees based on sales of Paxlovid and Comirnaty,
partially offset by:
a decrease in our liability to be paid to participants of our supplemental savings plan.
SI&A expenses decreased $59 million in the first six months of 2022, mainly due to:
a decrease in our liability to be paid to participants of our supplemental savings plan;
the favorable impact of foreign exchange; and
lower spending across the Inflammation & Immunology and Internal Medicine therapeutic areas,
partially offset by:
increased spending on Paxlovid and Comirnaty and a higher provision for healthcare reform fees based on sales of Paxlovid and Comirnaty.
Research and Development (R&D) Expenses
R&D expenses increased $576 million in the second quarter and $883 million in the first six months of 2022, primarily driven by increased investments across multiple late-stage clinical programs, including development costs and at-risk manufacturing related to programs to prevent and treat COVID-19, as well as costs to develop recently acquired assets.
Acquired In-Process Research and Development (IPR&D) Expenses
Acquired IPR&D expenses decreased $218 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily reflecting the acquisition of Amplyx Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Amplyx) in the second quarter of 2021, and no transactions giving rise to acquired IPR&D expenses in the second quarter of 2022.
Acquired IPR&D expenses increased $118 million in the first six months of 2022, largely due to:
an upfront payment to Biohaven and a premium paid on our equity investment in Biohaven; and
a premium paid on our equity investment in BioNTech to develop a potential mRNA vaccine against shingles,
partially offset by:
the acquisition of Amplyx in the second quarter of 2021.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets decreased $95 million in the second quarter and $119 million in the first six months of 2022, primarily as a result of lower amortization of Comirnaty sales milestones to BioNTech.

Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives
Transforming to a More Focused Company Program––For a description of our program, as well as the anticipated and actual costs, see Note 3. The program savings discussed below may be rounded and represent approximations. In connection with restructuring our corporate enabling functions, we expect gross cost savings of $1.0 billion, or net cost savings, excluding merit and inflation growth and certain real estate cost increases, of $700 million, to be achieved primarily from 2021 through 2022. In connection with transforming our marketing strategy, we expect net cost savings of $1.4 billion, to be achieved primarily from 2022 through 2024. In connection with manufacturing network optimization, we expect net cost savings of $550 million to be achieved primarily from 2020 through 2023.
Certain qualifying costs for this program were recorded in the first two quarters of 2022 and 2021 and are reflected as Certain Significant Items and excluded from our non-GAAP measure of Adjusted Income. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measure: Adjusted Income section of this MD&A.
In addition to this program, we continuously monitor our operations for cost reduction and/or productivity opportunities, especially in light of the losses of exclusivity and the expiration of collaborative arrangements for various products.
Other (Income)/Deductions—Net
The period-over-period changes were primarily driven by:
net losses on equity securities in the second quarter and first six months of 2022 versus net gains recognized in the second quarter and first six months of 2021; and
net periodic benefit costs recorded in the second quarter and first six months of 2022 versus net periodic benefit credits recorded in the second quarter and first six months of 2021.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE: ADJUSTED INCOME
Adjusted income is an alternative measure of performance used by management to evaluate our overall performance as a supplement to our GAAP reported performance measures. As such, we believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this measure. We use Adjusted income, certain components of Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted EPS to present the results of our major operations––the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of biopharmaceutical products worldwide––prior to considering certain income statement elements as follows:
50


MeasureDefinitionRelevance of Metrics to Our Business Performance
Adjusted income
Net income attributable to Pfizer Inc. common shareholders(a) before the impact of amortization of intangible assets, certain acquisition-related items, discontinued operations and certain significant items
Provides investors useful information to:
evaluate the normal recurring operational activities, and their components, on a comparable year-over-year basis
assist in modeling expected future performance on a normalized basis
Provides investors insight into the way we manage our budgeting and forecasting, how we evaluate and manage our recurring operations and how we reward and compensate our senior management(b)

Cost of sales, Selling, informational and administrative expenses, Research and development expenses and Other (income)/deductions––net (a), each before the impact of amortization of intangible assets, certain acquisition-related items, discontinued operations and certain significant items, which are components of the Adjusted income measure
Adjusted diluted EPS
EPS attributable to Pfizer Inc. common shareholders––diluted(a) before the impact of amortization of intangible assets, certain acquisition-related items, discontinued operations and certain significant items
(a)Most directly comparable GAAP measure.
(b)The short-term incentive plans for substantially all non-sales-force employees worldwide are funded from a pool based on our performance, measured in significant part versus three budgeted metrics, one of which is Adjusted diluted EPS (as defined for annual incentive compensation purposes), which is derived from Adjusted income and accounts for 40% of the bonus pool funding tied to financial performance. Additionally, the payout for performance share awards is determined in part by Adjusted net income, which is derived from Adjusted income. Beginning in the first quarter of 2022, we no longer exclude any expenses for acquired IPR&D from our non-GAAP Adjusted results but we continue to exclude certain of these expenses for our financial results for annual incentive compensation purposes. The bonus pool funding, which is largely based on financial performance, is adjusted by our R&D pipeline performance, as measured by four metrics, and performance against certain of our environmental, social and governance (ESG) metrics, and may be further modified by our Compensation Committee’s assessment of other factors.
Adjusted income and its components and Adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, are limited in their usefulness to investors. Because of their non-standardized definitions, they may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies and are presented to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance. A limitation of these measures is that they provide a view of our operations without including all events during a period, and do not provide a comparable view of our performance to peers. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for their most directly comparable GAAP measures of Net income attributable to Pfizer Inc. common shareholders, components of Net income attributable to Pfizer Inc. common shareholders and EPS attributable to Pfizer Inc. common shareholders—diluted, respectively.
We also recognize that, as internal measures of performance, these measures have limitations, and we do not restrict our performance-management process solely to these measures. We also use other tools designed to achieve the highest levels of performance. For example, our R&D organization has productivity targets, upon which its effectiveness is measured. In addition, total shareholder return, both on an absolute basis and relative to a publicly traded pharmaceutical index, plays a significant role in determining payouts under certain of our incentive compensation plans.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2022, our reconciliation of certain GAAP reported to non-GAAP adjusted information is updated to reflect the following, and prior-period information has been revised to conform to the current period presentation:

Adjusted Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS
Acquired IPR&D—Non-GAAP Adjusted financial measures include expenses for all acquired IPR&D costs incurred in connection with upfront and milestone payments on collaboration and in-license agreements, including premiums on equity securities, as well as asset acquisitions of acquired IPR&D. Previously, certain of these items were excluded from our non-GAAP adjusted results. Acquired IPR&D expenses that previously would have been excluded from non-GAAP Adjusted income but are now included in both GAAP Reported income and non-GAAP Adjusted income: (i) had no impact in the second quarter of 2022, (ii) were approximately $339 million pre-tax ($276 million, net of tax), or $0.05 per share, in the first six months of 2022 and (iii) were approximately $186 million for both pre-tax and net of tax, or $0.03 per share, in both the second quarter and first six months of 2021.
Amortization of Intangible Assets—We began excluding all amortization of intangibles from non-GAAP Adjusted income, compared to excluding only amortization of intangibles related to large mergers or acquisitions under the prior methodology, and presenting it as a separate reconciling line. Previously, the adjustment under the prior methodology was included as part of
51


a reconciling line entitled “Purchase accounting adjustments” that we no longer separately present. The impact of this policy change resulted in benefits of $0.02 and $0.03 on Adjusted diluted EPS in the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively, and $0.03 and $0.04 in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, respectively.
Acquisition-Related Items—Adjusted income continues to exclude certain acquisition-related items, which are comprised of transaction, integration, restructuring charges and additional depreciation costs for business combinations because these costs are unique to each transaction and represent costs that were incurred to restructure and integrate businesses as a result of an acquisition. We have made no adjustments for resulting synergies. Beginning in the first quarter of 2022, acquisition-related items may now include purchase accounting impacts that previously would have been included as part of a reconciling line entitled “Purchase accounting adjustments” that we no longer separately present, such as: (i) the incremental charge to cost of sales from the sale of acquired inventory that was written up to fair value, (ii) depreciation related to the increase/decrease in fair value of acquired fixed assets, (iii) amortization related to the increase in fair value of acquired debt and (iv) the fair value changes for contingent consideration.
Discontinued Operations—Adjusted income continues to exclude the results of discontinued operations, as well as any related gains or losses on the disposal of such operations. We believe that this presentation is meaningful to investors because, while we review our therapeutic areas and product lines for strategic fit with our operations, we do not build or run our business with the intent to discontinue parts of our business. Restatements due to discontinued operations do not impact compensation or change the Adjusted income measure for the compensation in respect of the restated periods, but are presented for consistency across all periods.
Certain Significant Items—Adjusted income continues to exclude certain significant items representing substantive and/or unusual items that are evaluated individually on a quantitative and qualitative basis. Certain significant items may be highly variable and difficult to predict. Furthermore, in some cases it is reasonably possible that they could reoccur in future periods. For example, although major non-acquisition-related cost-reduction programs are specific to an event or goal with a defined term, we may have subsequent programs based on reorganizations of the business, cost productivity or in response to LOE or economic conditions. Legal charges to resolve litigation are also related to specific cases, which are facts and circumstances specific and, in some cases, may also be the result of litigation matters at acquired companies that were inestimable, not probable or unresolved at the date of acquisition. Gains and losses on equity securities, and pension and postretirement actuarial remeasurement gains and losses have a very high degree of inherent market volatility, which we do not control and cannot predict with any level of certainty and because we do not believe including these gains and losses assists investors in understanding our business or is reflective of our core operations and business. Unusual items represent items that are not part of our ongoing business; items that, either as a result of their nature or size, we would not expect to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis; items that would be non-recurring; or items that relate to products we no longer sell.

ANALYSIS OF THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS
Cash Flows from Continuing Operations
 Six Months Ended
(MILLIONS)July 3,
2022
July 4,
2021
Drivers of change
Cash provided by/(used in):
Operating activities from continuing operations$14,717 $15,828 
The change was driven primarily by (i) a decrease in the change in amounts due to BioNTech for the gross profit split for Comirnaty and a decrease in the change in deferred revenues (see Notes 8 and 13C), as well as (ii) the impact of timing of receipts and payments in the ordinary course of business, partially offset by (iii) higher net income adjusted for non-cash items, including an increase from non-cash unrealized losses on equity securities recognized in 2022, compared to unrealized gains recognized in 2021.
Investing activities from continuing operations$(10,746)$(9,880)
The change was driven mainly by $6.2 billion cash paid for the acquisition of Arena, net of cash acquired, a $3.0 billion increase in purchases of short-term investments with original maturities of greater than three months, a $2.6 billion increase in net purchases of short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less, and a $1.2 billion increase in purchases of long-term investments, partially offset by a $12.6 billion increase in redemptions of short-term investments with original maturities of greater than three months.
Financing activities from continuing operations$(4,058)$(5,364)
The change was driven mostly by $4.0 billion proceeds from short-term borrowings, largely reflecting the loan from the Consumer Healthcare JV (see Note 2C), and an $879 million net increase in proceeds from short-term borrowings with original maturities of three months or less, partially offset by $2.0 billion purchases of the Company’s common stock in 2022 and a $1.6 billion increase in repayments of long-term debt.
Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations
Cash flows from discontinued operations relate to previously divested businesses (see Note 2B).
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND MARKET RISK
Due to our significant operating cash flows, which is a key strength of our liquidity and capital resources and our primary funding source, as well as our financial assets, access to capital markets, revolving credit agreements, and available lines of
54


credit, we believe that we have, and will maintain, the ability to meet our liquidity needs to support ongoing operations, our capital allocation objectives, and our contractual and other obligations for the foreseeable future. For additional information, including information about off-balance sheet arrangements, see the Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity, Capital Resources and Market Risk section within MD&A in our 2021 Form 10-K. For information about the sources and uses of our funds, as well as our operating cash flows, see our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of equity, and the Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows within MD&A. For information on our money market funds, available-for sale-debt securities and long-term debt, see Note 7.
Debt Capacity––Lines of Credit
As of July 3, 2022, we had access to a $7 billion committed U.S. revolving credit facility expiring in 2026, which may be used for general corporate purposes including to support our commercial paper borrowings. In addition to the U.S. revolving credit facility, our lenders have provided us an additional $527 million in lines of credit, of which $495 million expire within one year. Essentially all lines of credit were unused as of July 3, 2022.
Capital Allocation Framework
Our capital allocation framework is primarily devised to facilitate (i) the achievement of medical breakthroughs through R&D investments and business development activities and (ii) returning capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. See the Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook section within MD&A of our 2021 Form 10-K. In April 2022, our BOD declared a dividend of $0.40 per share, paid on June 10, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 13, 2022. In June 2022, our BOD declared a dividend of $0.40 per share, payable on September 6, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 29, 2022.
In the first quarter of 2022, we purchased 39 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $2.0 billion under our publicly announced share purchase plan. We did not purchase shares in the second quarter of 2022. See Note 12 in our 2021 Form 10-K and Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds in Part II, Item 2 for more information. At July 3, 2022, our remaining share-purchase authorization was approximately $3.3 billion.
In keeping with Pfizer’s transformation into a more focused, global leader in science-based innovative medicines and vaccines, we intend to exit our 32% ownership interest in Haleon in a disciplined manner, with the objective of maximizing value for our shareholders. See Note 2C.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
For information about off-balance sheet arrangements, see the Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity, Capital Resources and Market Risk section within MD&A in our 2021 Form 10-K. For more information on guarantees and indemnifications, see Note 12B.
In March 2022, in connection with GSK’s previously announced planned demerger, the Consumer Healthcare JV issued notes of $8.75 billion, €2.35 billion and £700 million with various maturities. GSK guaranteed the notes and we agreed to indemnify GSK for 32% of any amount payable by GSK. In conjunction with the completion of GSK’s demerger transactions in July 2022, GSK’s guarantee and our related indemnification of GSK’s guarantee were terminated. See Note 2C.
Global Economic Conditions
Beginning in our second quarter of 2022, our operations in Turkey function in a hyperinflationary economy. The impact to Pfizer is not considered material. For more information about global economic conditions, see the Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook—The Global Economic Environment section within this MD&A.
For additional information about our diverse sources of funds, global economic conditions, and information about credit ratings, market risk and LIBOR, see the Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity, Capital Resources and Market Risk section within MD&A in our 2021 Form 10-K.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Recently Adopted Accounting Standard
See Note 1B.
55


Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Adopted as of July 3, 2022
Standard/DescriptionEffective DateEffect on the
Financial Statements
Reference rate reform provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the guidance for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued after 2021 because of reference rate reform.
The new guidance provides the following optional expedients:
1.Simplify accounting analyses under current U.S. GAAP for contract modifications.
2.Simplify the assessment of hedge effectiveness and allow hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform to continue.
3.Allow a one-time election to sell or transfer debt securities classified as held to maturity that reference a rate affected by reference rate reform.
Elections can be adopted prospectively at any time through December 31, 2022.We are assessing the impact, but currently do not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued final guidance to clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered when measuring fair value. Recognizing a contractual sale restriction as a separate unit of account is not permitted.
January 1, 2024, with early adoption permitted.
We are assessing the impact, but currently do not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them in a timely manner to material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.
During our most recent fiscal quarter, there has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
