D.       Risk Factors

Operating in the pharmaceutical sector carries various inherent risks and uncertainties that may affect our business. In this section, we describe the risks and uncertainties that we consider material to our business, in that they may have a significant effect on our financial condition, results of operations and/or reputation.

These risks have been categorised consistently with the “Risk Overview—Principal Risks” detailed on pages 48 and 49 of AstraZeneca’s “Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2025” included as exhibit 15.1 to this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026, each of which are included below (in addition to other risks that we face). We believe that the forward-looking statements about AstraZeneca in this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026, identified by words such as ‘anticipates’, ‘believes’, ‘expects’ and ‘intends’, are based on reasonable assumptions. However, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties such as those summarised below. They relate to events that may occur in the future, that may be influenced by factors beyond our control and that may have actual outcomes materially different from our expectations. Other risks not listed here could have a significant adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and/or reputation.

Product pipeline risks

  ​ ​ ​

Impact

Failure or delay in the delivery of our pipeline or launch of new medicines

Our continued success depends on the development and successful launch of innovative new drugs.

The development of pharmaceutical product candidates is a complex, risky and lengthy process involving significant resources. Projects have failed, and may fail in the future, at any stage of the process due to various factors, including: failure to obtain the required regulatory or marketing approvals, unfavourable clinical efficacy data, safety concerns, failure to demonstrate adequate cost-effective benefits to regulatory authorities and/or payers, and the emergence of competing products. Details of projects that have suffered setbacks or failures during 2025 can be found in the “Strategic Report—Therapy Area Review” on pages 12 to 25 of AstraZeneca’s “Annual Report on Form 20-F Information 2025” included as exhibit 15.1 to this form 20-F dated February 24, 2026.

Launch activities have been delayed, and may be delayed in the future, by a number of factors, including: adverse findings in preclinical or clinical studies, regulatory demands, price negotiation, large-scale natural disasters or global pandemics, competitor activity and technology transfer.

In addition to developing products in-house, we continue to expand our portfolio through licensing arrangements and strategic collaborations which may not ultimately be successful.

Failure or delay in development of new product candidates could damage the reputation of our R&D capabilities, and adversely affect our future business and results of operations.

Delays to launches can lead to excess expenses in the manufacture of pre-launch inventories, marketing materials and salesforce training. For the launch of products that are seasonal in nature, delays in regulatory approvals or manufacturing may delay launch to the next season which, in turn, may significantly reduce the return on costs incurred in preparing for the launch for that season. Furthermore, in immuno-oncology in particular, speed to market is critical given the large number of clinical trials being conducted by competitors. Delay of launch can also erode the term of patent exclusivity.

Competition from other pharmaceutical companies means that we may have to pay a significant premium over book or market values for our acquisitions. Failure to complete collaborative projects in a timely, cost-effective manner may limit our ability to access a greater portfolio of products, intellectual property (IP), technology and shared expertise. In many cases, we make milestone payments in advance of the commercialisation of the products, with no assurance of recouping costs.

Failure to meet regulatory or ethical requirements for medicine development or approval

We are subject to laws and regulations that control our ability to market our pharmaceutical products. Our development programmes must meet many standards to prove our products are safe, effective and of high quality. Health authorities, such as the FDA in the US and the European Medicines Agency in the EU, can refuse to approve our products or require us to conduct additional clinical trials or scientific testing before they will approve them for marketing. Many factors influence health authority decisions to approve or reject a marketing application for a pharmaceutical product. These include advances in science and technology, new laws, regulations and policies, and different standards for evaluating safety and effectiveness.

Delays in regulatory approvals could delay our ability to market our products and may adversely affect our revenue. Also, post-approval requirements, including additional clinical trials, could cause increased costs. We seek to manage these risks, but policymaking by governments and health authorities can be unpredictable and unforeseen circumstances, such as public health emergencies, may strain health authority resources and delay the approval of our products.

Following approval, a health authority may require us to conduct additional clinical trials or scientific testing to address concerns raised after patients have used our products in the marketplace. New data may impact a product’s approval status or lead to labelling changes that limit the use of a product.

Commercialisation risks

  ​ ​ ​

Impact

Pricing, affordability, access and competitive pressures

At AstraZeneca, our approach to pricing balances the priorities of patients, their physicians, payers, society and our business. Our four guiding principles – Access, Value, Sustainability and Equity – aligned to our overarching Company Values, form the cornerstones of our brand pricing strategies. Our prices are rooted in the assurance of our high-quality science, and the benefit this brings to patients. They also reflect holistic value, in the context of healthcare systems and market dynamics, affordability and equity; so that we can adapt our prices across the more than 80 countries in which we have an active presence and help support long-term healthcare system resilience.

Our pricing approach, as described in the previous paragraph, is a key contributor to our success. However, there are various external risk factors that could compromise our ability to execute our pricing strategies as planned. The market access environment is highly complex and subject to dynamic economic, political and social pressures. Globally, there are increasing cost-containment measures, greater calls for net price and R&D cost transparency, as well as early discussions towards pooled procurement mechanisms beyond emergency countermeasures and essential medicines.

Continued deterioration of, or lack of improvement in, socio-economic conditions could adversely affect supply and/or distribution in affected countries and the ability or willingness of customers to purchase our medicines, putting pressure on price and/or volumes. This could adversely affect our business or results of operations, for example, those healthcare systems most severely impacted by downturn may seek alternative ways to settle their debts at a discount. Other customers may cease to trade, which may result in losses from writing off debts or a reduction in demand for products. Across the industry, we continue to navigate pricing pressures and policy changes including the EU Joint Clinical Assessment (JCA), the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) as well as more recent health equalisation initiatives requiring countries to increase their drug spending to support R&D costs, ensuring a more balanced global pharmaceutical landscape.

Failures or delays in the quality or execution of the Group’s commercial strategies

Maximising the commercial potential of our new products underpins the success of our strategy and the delivery of our short- and medium-term targets. We may ultimately be unable to achieve commercial success for various reasons, including:

>

Difficulties in manufacturing sufficient quantities of the product

>

Any price control measures imposed by governments and healthcare authorities

>

Patient access to healthcare

>

Diagnosis rates

>

Erosion of IP rights

>

Failure to show a differentiated product profile

>

Changes in prescribing habits.

The ability to successfully carry out business in emerging markets can be more challenging than in established markets. Such challenges may include:

>

Volatility in economic or political climates

>

Inadequate protection against crime (including counterfeiting, corruption and fraud)

>

Inadvertent breaches of local and international law.

Failure to execute our commercial strategies or achieve the level of sales anticipated for a medicine could materially impact our business.

Failure to leverage potential opportunities or appropriately manage risks in emerging markets may materially adversely affect our reputation, business or results of operations.

Supply chain and business execution risks

  ​ ​ ​

Impact

Failure to maintain supply of compliant, quality medicines

We may experience challenges, delays or interruptions in the manufacturing and supply of our products for various reasons, including:

> Supply shortages or delays in construction of facilities to support future demand of our products caused by significant unforecasted demand growth or supply chain disruptions (e.g. natural disasters, climate impacts, pandemics, conflict or political unrest, failure in IT (including cyber-attack)).

> The inability to supply products due to a product quality failure or regulatory compliance action such as licence withdrawal, product recall or change of regulatory standards (e.g. nitrosamines, where regulators have been introducing new limits/expectations for regulatory filings).

It is necessary for us to meet all regulations, including compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices and Good Distribution Practices and comparable regulatory dossier conditions of approval in all countries in which our products are licensed, manufactured or sold.

We rely significantly on third parties for the timely supply of goods (e.g. active ingredients and packaging components, many of which are difficult to substitute in a timely manner or at all).

Supply chain difficulties may result in product shortages, which could lead to lost Product Sales and materially affect our reputation and results of operations.

Failure to comply with all manufacturing regulations can result in negative regulatory inspection findings that could lead to the halt of manufacturing, and/or product seizure, debarment or recalls which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Failure in information technology or cybersecurity

IT systems enable critical business functions which are increasingly dependent on solution provider cybersecurity controls and maturity. High availability and resilient IT systems remain a business imperative, providing our workforce with continuous access to AI tools, collaboration environments, global communications channels, applications and data. In addition to availability and reliability, these systems must comply with provisions specified in cybersecurity, data security, privacy and individual protection laws.

We prioritise data protection and access to delivery innovation, business growth, and uninterrupted medicine supply. Data is often characterised as strictly confidential including clinical trial records, personal information, IP, R&D data, and compliance information. IT systems and data are potentially vulnerable to service interruptions and security breaches via attacks by malicious third parties or intentional or inadvertent actions by our employees or vendors. Attempts to exploit AstraZeneca’s IT systems and data are increasingly sophisticated with increased volume and fuelled by malicious AI use. Threat actors include organised criminal groups, ‘hacktivists’, nation states, employees and others. Privacy legislation includes obligations to report data protection breaches to regulators and affected individuals within expedited timeframes.

The internet is our primary critical business transaction channel. Internet availability remains at risk due to geopolitical tensions and conflict.

Disruption to our IT systems and/or the internet (including breaches of data security or cybersecurity, failure to integrate new and existing IT systems) or failure to comply with additional requirements under applicable laws, could harm our reputation and materially adversely affect our financial condition or operations. While we invest heavily in the protection of our data, IT, Operational Technology and AI assets we may be unable to prevent hardware or software failures or breaches which could result in disclosure of confidential information, damage to our reputation, regulatory penalties or sanctions, or financial loss.

The inability to back-up and restore data effectively could lead to permanent loss of data that could, in turn, result in non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations and otherwise harm our business. Data loss could lead to public disclosure of confidential information which may damage our reputation, materially affect our business or results of operations, and expose us to legal risks and/or additional legal obligations. Public disclosure of sensitive information could materially adversely affect our reputation and business or operations’ results.

Cybersecurity insurance coverage limits may not protect against any future claim or claim proceeds may be delayed.

Failure to comply with regulatory disclosure requirements could cause reputational damage and a loss of public trust.

D.       Risk Factors

continued

Failure to collect and manage data and AI in line with legal and regulatory requirements and strategic objectives

Data is increasingly recognised as being AstraZeneca’s most valuable commodity. There is an increasing range of legislative and regulatory requirements to manage data across all countries where we conduct business. The requirements may impact certain types of data such as personal data, the way that we conduct business, such as restricting the movement of data between countries or jurisdictional regions, or how we make use of new technological capabilities such as AI. In addition, geopolitical changes may require changes to how AstraZeneca manages data.

Beyond legal and regulatory requirements, achieving strategic objectives will require good management of data across the enterprise. As our organisation increasingly relies on data, including sensitive data relating to health and genomics, a failure to properly understand personal and collective accountabilities for managing data to maximise its value, or failure to address data risks, will reduce our ability to execute at pace and deliver strategic objectives.

AI technologies present significant opportunities and risks to our business. Harnessing AI’s transformative potential may enable AstraZeneca to speed up the discovery and development of new drugs, optimise our manufacturing processes, drive efficiencies and productivity, and accelerate our growth. Failure to exploit these opportunities may put AstraZeneca at a competitive disadvantage and impact delivery of our strategic objectives.

AstraZeneca is investing significant resources into AI experimentation, development and deployment across many parts of our business. As we scale our use of AI, it is possible not all investments will succeed.

AI technologies may exacerbate existing risks, like those risks associated with data privacy, cybersecurity and IP. AI also introduces new risks due to the autonomous nature of the technology, the ease at which AI-enabled decision making can be scaled up, and the commercial pressures to adopt AI. AI systems can amplify biased and discriminatory decision making, perform unreliably and malfunction, generate insights which are difficult to interpret and explain, and cause direct harm to individuals or groups. These risks may become more significant as we increasingly utilise AI to inform, augment and automate decision making and processes in sensitive areas (e.g. clinical trials and medical decision making).

The adoption and exploitation of AI is occurring under the backdrop of intense global media scrutiny, heightened political attention and low levels of public trust and understanding. There is also a range of new AI regulations being adopted and implemented worldwide, including in the EU, China and the US.

  ​ ​ ​

Despite taking measures designed to ensure compliance with applicable privacy- and AI-related laws and regulations by our personnel and our third parties, non-compliance may occur. If future instances of non-compliance are deemed significant, these may attract material regulatory sanctions or fines and corresponding reputational damage, orders to stop certain processing of personal data, or legal action on behalf of impacted individuals. Further, failure to protect personal data could lead to a competitive disadvantage, loss of trust from our stakeholders, including patients, and prevent us from delivering our strategic objectives.

If the scope of data-related laws is expanded or if the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws change or new privacy laws are implemented, AstraZeneca and its third-party vendors may be required to change their business practices or data processing practices and policies. This may lead to substantial compliance related costs or materially adversely impact our business and financial condition.

Our failure to use AI technologies in a way that maintains trust, quality and control in our business activities would pose reputational, legal, regulatory and financial risks to AstraZeneca. Investments in AI may not realise the benefits that were anticipated.

Illegal trade in the Group’s medicines

The illegal trade of pharmaceutical products, including counterfeiting, tampering, theft and illegal diversion (where products are found in a market where we did not send them and where they are not approved to be sold) may lead to a loss of public confidence in the integrity of medicines.

The incidence of illegal trade could materially adversely affect our reputation and financial performance, and pose a direct risk to patient safety. In addition, concern about this issue may cause some patients to stop taking their medicines, with consequential risks to their health.

If we are found liable for breaches in our supply chains, authorities may take action, financial or otherwise, that could restrict the distribution of our products.

7

D.       Risk Factors

continued

Reliance on third-party goods and services

A significant proportion of AstraZeneca’s annual costs relates to spend with third-party suppliers. The level of spend supports the length of our value chain from discovery to manufacture and commercialisation of our medicines.

Many of our business-critical operations are outsourced to third-party providers. We are, therefore, heavily reliant on these third parties to get medicines to patients, comply with applicable laws and regulations, while also ensuring prudent use of AstraZeneca’s financial resources.

Failure to successfully secure, onboard and manage outsourced services, particularly with continued inflationary pressures, or the failure of outsourced providers to deliver timely services, and to the required level of quality, could materially adversely affect our reputation, our financial condition and operating results as well as our ability to deliver medicines to patients.

Failure to effectively manage third-party suppliers when external factors, including geopolitical tensions or raw materials and components shortages, place increased pressure on AstraZeneca’s ability to purchase goods and services may lead to major business disruption.

Any breach of security, whether physical, cyber or data related, or failure of these third parties to operate in a way that is consistent with laws or regulations, may lead to regulatory penalties, materially affect the results of operations and adversely impact our reputation.

Failure of critical processes

Unexpected events including those beyond our control could result in the failure of critical processes within the Group or at third parties on whom we are reliant.

Examples of threats include:

> Instability including as a result of war or armed conflicts, terrorism, pandemics, riots, unstable governments, civil insurrection or social unrest

> Natural disasters and extreme weather events

> Cyber threats detailed in the ‘Failure in information technology or cybersecurity’ risk above.

Crystallisation of such threats may heighten other risks, such as the delivery of the pipeline, launch of new medicines, or the manufacture and supply of medicines, and may lead to loss of revenue and have an adverse impact on our operations.

Failure to attract, develop, engage and retain a diverse, talented and capable workforce

We rely heavily on recruiting and retaining talented employees with a diverse range of skills and capabilities to meet our strategic objectives. Externally there is intense competition for well-qualified individuals, as the supply of people with certain skills or in specific geographic regions may be limited.

Ensuring our employees are continually developed so that they can fully exploit the opportunities presented by new technologies will be important for our ongoing success.

The inability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel may weaken our succession plans for critical positions, impact the implementation of our strategic objectives and have a significant impact on our business.

Failure to develop and engage our workforce could result in business disruption, a loss of productivity and higher turnover rates, all of which could materially adversely affect our business.

Legal, regulatory and compliance risks

  ​ ​ ​

Impact

Safety and efficacy of marketed medicines is questioned

Our ability to accurately assess, prior to launch, the eventual safety or efficacy of a new product once in broader clinical use can only be based on data available at that time, which is inherently limited due to relatively short periods of product testing and relatively small clinical study patient samples.

Any unforeseen safety concerns or adverse events relating to our products, or failure to comply with laws, rules and regulations relating to provision of appropriate warnings concerning the dangers and risks of our products that result in injuries, could expose us to large product liability claims, settlements and awards, particularly in the US. Adverse publicity relating to the safety of a product, or of other competing products, may increase the risk of product liability claims.

Serious safety concerns or adverse events relating to our products could lead to product recalls, seizures, loss of product approvals, declining sales and interruption of supply, and could materially adversely impact patient access, our reputation and financial revenues. Significant product liability claims could also arise which could be costly, divert management attention, or damage our reputation and demand for our products.

Unfavourable resolution of such current and similar future product liability claims could subject us to enhanced damages, consumer fraud and/or other claims, including civil and criminal governmental actions. This could require us to make significant provisions in our accounts relating to legal proceedings and could materially adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations, particularly where such circumstances are not covered by insurance.

8

D.       Risk Factors

continued

Adverse outcome of litigation and/or governmental investigations

Our business is subject to a wide range of laws and regulations around the world. We have been, and may continue to be, subject to various legal proceedings and governmental investigations.

Actual or perceived failure to comply with laws or regulations may result in AstraZeneca and/or its employees being investigated by government agencies and authorities and/or in civil legal proceedings. Relevant authorities have wide-ranging administrative powers to deal with any failure to comply with laws, regulations or continuing regulatory oversight, and this could affect us, whether such failure is our own or that of our contractors or external partners. In particular, the manufacturing, marketing, exportation, promotional, clinical, pharmacovigilance and pricing practices of pharmaceutical manufacturers, as well as manufacturer interaction with regulatory agencies, purchasers, prescribers and patients, are subject to extensive regulation, litigation and governmental investigation. Moreover, such laws, rules and regulations are subject to change. Details of material litigations and governmental investigations can be found in “Financial Statements—Notes to the Group Financial Statements—Note 30—Commitments, contingent liabilities and contingent assets” on pages 181 to 190 of AstraZeneca’s “Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2025” included as exhibit 15.1 to this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026.

  ​ ​ ​

Many companies, including AstraZeneca, have been subject to legal claims asserted by federal and state governmental authorities and private payers and consumers, which have resulted in substantial expense and other significant consequences. Governmental investigations or proceedings could result in civil or criminal sanctions and/or the payment of fines or damages. Civil litigation, particularly in the US, is inherently unpredictable, and unexpectedly high awards for damages can result from an adverse result. In many cases, litigation adversaries may claim enhanced damages in extremely high amounts. Government investigations, litigations, and other legal proceedings, regardless of the outcome, could be costly, divert management attention, or damage our reputation and demand for our products.

Unfavourable resolutions to current and similar future proceedings against us that could subject us to criminal liability, fines, penalties or other monetary or non-monetary remedies, including enhanced damages, require us to make significant provisions in our accounts relating to legal proceedings and could materially adversely affect our business or results of operations.

IP risks related to our products

  ​ ​ ​

IP protection provides the foundation for continued investment in developing innovative medicines to improve patient health. However, the pharmaceutical industry is experiencing pressure from governments and other healthcare payers to impose limits on IP protections in an effort to manage healthcare costs. Additionally, policymakers are progressively leveraging regulations to expedite the approval of generic drugs and encourage generic drug utilisation. These policies may drive accelerated utilisation of generic alternatives to our products following expiry or loss of our IP rights. We also recognise increasing use of compulsory licensing in some countries in which we operate.

We are subject to numerous patent challenges relating to various products or processes and assertions of non-infringement of our patents. A loss in any of these challenges could result in loss of patent protection on the covered product and a risk to the revenue generated by the product. We also face the risk that our products may be found to infringe patents owned or licensed by third parties and we may be subject to monetary damages or compelled to cease sales of the infringing product, resulting in a potential risk to revenue. These challenges threaten the value of our investment in pharmaceutical development. Details of material patent litigation matters can be found in “Financial Statements—Notes to the Group Financial Statements—Note 30—Commitments, contingent liabilities and contingent assets” on pages 181 to 185 of AstraZeneca’s “Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2025” included as exhibit 15.1 to this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026.

If we are unable to obtain, defend and enforce our IP, we may experience accelerated and intensified competition. Also, if our products are found to infringe a third-party patent, we may be subject to monetary damages or compelled to cease sales of the infringing product. These negative outcomes could have an adverse material impact on our financial results.

9

D.       Risk Factors

continued

Failure to meet our sustainability targets, regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations with respect to the environment

Environmental issues will become more important as healthcare systems continue to adopt net-zero climate targets and environmental considerations are embedded in the public procurement of medicinal products and devices.

Investors, governments and non-governmental organisations will scrutinise our environmental targets and performance.

Specific materials used to manufacture medicines, or used as excipients or propellants, are coming under increased regulation and may be subject to time-limited exemptions or potential phase-out.

The physical impacts of climate change could impact the resilience of our business operations and supply chain.

Investors are increasingly focusing on environmental issues. We continue to see an increased requirement to quantify the impact of specific environmental issues and to disclose our strategy, targets and performance.

Failure to maximise our sustainability credentials could expose us to increased regulatory risk and put us at a commercial disadvantage relative to our peers. This could adversely impact our financial results and lead to reputational damage.

Failure to proactively manage the physical risks associated with climate change could impact the resilience of our operations and supply chain. This could result in supply interruptions, loss of stock and adversely impact our financial results.

Failure to meet regulatory and ethical expectations on commercial practices, including anti-bribery/anti-corruption, anti-fraud and scientific exchanges

There remains an increased global focus on the implementation and enforcement of anti-bribery/anti-corruption and anti-fraud legislation. Three relevant pieces of legislation include the UK Bribery Act, the UK Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act and the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Many other countries where we operate are also enforcing their own laws more aggressively and/or adopting tougher new measures. There has also been an increase in cooperation and coordination between regulators across countries with respect to investigation and enforcement. We have been the subject of anti-corruption investigations and there can be no assurance that we will not, from time to time, be subject to informal enquiries and formal investigations from governmental agencies. In the context of our business, governmental officials interact with us in various roles that are important to our operations, such as in the capacity of a regulator, partner or healthcare payer, reimburser or prescriber, among others. To the extent we are the subject of any such pending and material matters, details are included in “Financial Statements—Notes to the Group Financial Statements—Note 30 Commitments, contingent liabilities and contingent assets” on pages 181 to 189 of AstraZeneca’s “Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2025” included as exhibit 15.1 to this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026.

Despite taking measures to prevent breaches of applicable anti-bribery/anti-corruption and anti-fraud laws by our personnel and associated third parties, breaches may still occur, potentially resulting in the imposition of significant penalties, such as fines, the requirement to comply with monitoring or self-reporting obligations, or debarment or exclusion from government sales or reimbursement programmes, any of which could materially adversely affect our reputation, business or results of operations.

Economic and financial risks

Impact

Geopolitical and/or macroeconomic volatility disrupts the operation of our global business

With an active presence in more than 80 countries, we are subject to political, socio-economic and financial factors around the world. A sustained global economic downturn, periods of high inflation, stagflation or large fluctuation in exchange rates may adversely impact financial markets and/or exacerbate pressure from governments and other healthcare payers on medicine prices and other cost control measures in order to limit healthcare spending.

Geopolitical tensions may lead to the imposition, alteration or escalation of trade controls, tariffs, taxes or other restrictions to market access which may increase our costs or reduce revenues.

A severe or prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to our business, including weakened demand for medicines and our ability to raise additional capital when needed or on favourable terms, if at all. A weak or declining economy could strain our suppliers, possibly resulting in supply disruption, or cause delays in payments for our services by third-party payers.

Measures taken to limit healthcare spending may lead to lower than anticipated rates of growth in some markets and limit the incentives to develop innovative medicines resulting in an adverse impact on revenues and profitability.

Any escalation in barriers to the global free flow of medicines could increase costs to serve affected markets which may lead to downward pressure on margins. While the introduction of severe sanctions would be unprecedented in relation to medicines, the landscape continues to evolve. It could occur if matters escalate significantly and could impact processes for the manufacture, distribution and commercialisation of medicines and levels of sales in affected markets.

Any of the foregoing could harm our business and we cannot anticipate all of the ways in which the current economic climate and financial market conditions could adversely impact our business.

10

D.       Risk Factors

continued

Failure to achieve strategic plans or meet targets or expectations

When we communicate our business strategy, targets or performance expectations, all such statements are forward-looking and based on assumptions and judgements, all of which are subject to significant inherent risks and uncertainties.

To achieve our strategic objectives, we must continue to develop commercially viable new products and successfully integrate new organisations we have acquired. There can be no guarantee that our strategy or expectations will materialise. Any failure to successfully implement our business strategy may frustrate the achievement of our financial targets, which may therefore materially damage our brand, business, financial position or results of operations.

Failure in internal control, financial reporting or the occurrence of fraud

Effective internal controls assist in the provision of reliable Financial Statements and the detection and prevention of fraud. Testing of internal controls provides only limited assurance over the accuracy of Financial Statements and may not prevent or detect misstatements or fraud.

The introduction of new legislation such as the failure to prevent fraud offence in the UK’s Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act may increase regulator focus on fraud.

Significant resources may be required to remediate any deficiency in internal controls. Any such deficiency may trigger related investigations and may result in fines being levied against individual directors or officers. Serious fraud may lead to prosecution of senior management. Any of the foregoing could adversely affect our financial results and lead to reputational damage.

Unexpected deterioration in the Group’s financial position

Movements in exchange rates against the US dollar, our reporting currency, impact our reported results. The key currencies of Product Sales and costs are: US dollar, euro, Chinese renminbi, pound sterling, Japanese yen, and Swedish krona.

Most of our cash is invested in AAA credit-rated institutional money market funds, fixed income securities issued by government, financial and non-financial entities, and collateralised and non-collateralised bank deposits. Our credit exposure is a mix of US, EU and rest of world default risk across these institutions.

We invest in many projects in an effort to develop a successful portfolio of approved products. Our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position therefore contains significant investments in intangible assets, including goodwill. Our ability to realise value on these investments depends on regulatory approvals, market acceptance, competition, and legal developments.

Our defined benefit post-retirement obligations (primarily in the UK and Sweden) can materially change in value but are largely backed by assets invested in growth and liability hedging portfolios, which hedge some of the risks inherent in liability valuations.

Although we maintain relevant insurance coverage for risks arising within the Group, we may not be able to maintain our insurance coverage at a reasonable cost or in sufficient amounts to protect us against losses.

Tax law is complex, leading to the risk of different interpretations. Revenue authorities can make conflicting claims to the profits taxed in individual countries leading to double taxation and the potential for fines and penalties. Tax laws can change following action by international bodies such as the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development or individual governments.

  ​ ​ ​

Foreign exchange rate movements may materially adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.

In a sustained economic downturn, such institutions may cease to trade and there can be no guarantee that we will be able to access the full value of our investments.

We expect that some of our intangible assets will become impaired in the future. Impairment losses may materially adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Solvency levels could fall, adversely impacting our financial position and requiring higher cash contributions if there are: falls in assets; increases in liability valuations (from falls in bond yields, increases in inflation or lower mortality); or changes in regulations. As liability valuation risks are hedged to a material level in some pension schemes, significant collateral may need to be posted to meet margin requirements, which in extreme circumstances, could lead to a short-term liquidity risk in these pension schemes and a request to the Group to provide temporary liquidity.

Uninsured losses, or those where an insurer denies coverage, could materially adversely affect our financial condition.

The resolution of tax disputes can result in incremental tax costs, a reallocation of profits or losses between jurisdictions, or even double taxation, fines and penalties. They are costly, divert management attention and may adversely affect our reputation.

If tax treaties are withdrawn or amended, or Competent Authorities are unable to reach an agreement that eliminates double taxation, this could materially adversely affect our financial position. For details of our financial risk management policies, see “Strategic Report—Financial Review—Financial risk management” on page 64 and for details of current tax disputes, see “Financial Statements—Notes to the Group Financial Statements—Note 30—Commitments, contingent liabilities and contingent assets—Tax” on pages 189 to 190 of AstraZeneca’s “Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2025” included as exhibit 15.1 to this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026.

Changes in tax regimes could result in a material impact on the Group’s cash tax liabilities and tax charge, resulting in either an increase or a reduction in financial results.

ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A. History and Development of the Company

AstraZeneca PLC was incorporated in England and Wales on June 17, 1992 under the Companies Act 1985. It is a public limited company domiciled in the United Kingdom. The Company’s registered number is 2723534 and its registered office is at 1 Francis Crick Avenue, Cambridge Biomedical Campus, Cambridge CB2 0AA, United Kingdom (Tel: +44 20 3749 5000). From February 1993 until April 1999, the Company was called Zeneca Group PLC. On April 6, 1999, the Company changed its name to AstraZeneca PLC.

The Company was formed when the pharmaceutical, agrochemical and specialty chemical businesses of Imperial Chemical Industries PLC were demerged in 1993. In 1999, the Company sold the specialty chemical business. Also in 1999, the Company merged with Astra of Sweden. In 2000, it demerged the agrochemical business and merged it with the similar business of Novartis to form a new company called Syngenta AG. In 2007, the Group acquired MedImmune, a biologics and vaccines business based in the United States. In 2021, the Group acquired Alexion, a rare disease business based in the United States.

In 1999, in connection with the merger between Astra and Zeneca, the Company’s share capital was redenominated in US dollars. On 6 April 1999, Zeneca shares were cancelled and US dollar-denominated shares issued, credited as fully paid on the basis of one dollar-denominated share for each Zeneca share then held.

This was achieved by a reduction of capital under section 135 of the UK Companies Act 1985. Upon the reduction of capital becoming effective, all issued and unissued Zeneca shares were cancelled and the sum arising as a result of the share cancellation credited to a special reserve, which was converted into US dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the record date. This US dollar reserve was then applied in paying up, at par, newly created US dollar-denominated shares.

At the same time as the US dollar shares were issued, the Company issued 50,000 Redeemable Preference Shares for cash, at par. The Redeemable Preference Shares carry limited class voting rights, no dividend rights and are capable of redemption, at par, at the option of the Company on the giving of seven days’ written notice to the registered holder of the Redeemable Preference Shares.

A total of 826 million Ordinary Shares were issued to Astra shareholders who accepted the merger offer before the final closing date, 21 May 1999. The Company received acceptances from Astra shareholders representing 99.6% of Astra’s shares and the remaining 0.4% was acquired in 2000, for cash.

In 2021, in connection with the acquisition of Alexion, a total of 236 million Ordinary Shares (the majority of which were represented by new AstraZeneca ADRs) were issued to Alexion shareholders in part consideration for the acquisition.

In 2026, the Company terminated its American Depositary Receipt (“ADR”) programme and directly listed all of its Ordinary Shares on the New York Stock Exchange. The effective date of the direct listing of the Ordinary Shares on the New York Stock Exchange was 2 February 2026.

Revenue recognition in the US

Product Sales are recorded at the invoiced amount (excluding inter-company sales and value-added taxes), less movements in estimated accruals for rebates and chargebacks given to managed care and other customers, which are a particular feature in the US and are considered to be key estimates. It is the Groups policy to offer a credit note for all returns and to destroy all returned stock in all markets. Cash discounts for prompt payments are also discounted from sales. Sales are recognised when the control of the goods has been transferred to a third party, which is usually when title passes to the customer, either on shipment or on the receipt of goods by the customer, depending on local trading terms.

Rebates, chargebacks and returns in the US

When invoicing Product Sales in the US, we estimate the rebates and chargebacks that we expect to pay, which are considered to be estimates. These rebates typically arise from sales contracts with third-party managed care organisations, hospitals, long-term care facilities, group purchasing organisations and various federal or state programmes (Medicaid contracts, supplemental rebates, etc.). They can be classified as follows:

Chargebacks, where we enter into arrangements under which certain parties, typically hospitals, long-term care facilities, group purchasing organisations, the Department of Veterans Affairs, Public Health Service Covered Entities, and the Department of Defense, are able to buy products from wholesalers at the lower prices we have contracted with them. The chargeback is the difference between the price we invoice to the wholesaler and the contracted price charged by the wholesaler to the other party. Chargebacks are credited directly to the wholesalers.
Regulatory rebates, including Medicaid and other federal and state programmes, where we pay rebates based on the specific terms of agreements with the US Department of Health and Human Services and with individual states, which include product usage and information on best prices and average market price benchmarks.
Contractual rebates, under which entities such as third-party managed care organisations are entitled to rebates depending on specified performance provisions, which vary from contract to contract.

The effects of these deductions on our US pharmaceuticals revenue and the movements on US pharmaceuticals revenue provisions are set out in the tables below.

33

Accrual assumptions are built up on a product-by-product and customer-by customer basis, taking into account specific contract provisions coupled with expected performance, and are then aggregated into a weighted average rebate accrual rate for each of our products. Accrual rates are reviewed and adjusted on an as-needed basis. There may be further adjustments when actual rebates are invoiced based on utilisation information submitted to us (in the case of contractual rebates) and claims/invoices are received (in the case of regulatory rebates and chargebacks). We believe that we have made reasonable estimates for future rebates using a similar methodology to that of previous years. Inevitably, however, these estimates involve assumptions in respect of aggregate future sales levels, segment mix and customers’ contractual performance.

Overall adjustments between gross and net US Product Sales amounted to $23,941 million in 2025 (2024: $18,986 million) with the increase driven predominantly by increased rebates from contractual arrangements and chargebacks.

Cash discounts are offered to customers to encourage prompt payment. Accruals are calculated based on historical experience and are adjusted to reflect actual experience. Our revenue recognition policy is described within Group Accounting Policies in “Financial Statements—Group Accounting Policies” on page 129 to 136 of AstraZeneca’s “Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2025” included as exhibit 15.1 to this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026.

Industry practice in the US allows wholesalers and pharmacies to return unused stocks within a certain time frame based on shelf-life expiry. The customer is credited for the returned product by the issuance of a credit note. Returned products are not exchanged for products from inventory and once a return claim has been determined to be valid and a credit note has been issued to the customer, the returned products are destroyed. At the point of sale in the US, we estimate the quantity and value of products which may ultimately be returned. Our returns accruals in the US are based on actual experience. Our estimate is based on the historical sales and returns information for established products together with market-related information, such as estimated shelf life, product recall, and estimated stock levels at wholesalers, which we receive via third-party information services. For newly launched products, we use rates based on our experience with similar products or a pre-determined percentage.

Disclosures Under the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012

AstraZeneca is a global, innovation-driven biopharmaceutical business with operations in over 100 countries and its innovative medicines are used by millions of patients worldwide. AstraZeneca has a legal entity based in Iran, AstraZeneca Pars Company (“AstraZeneca Pars”), which has no employees, and is owned by non-US Group companies. In July 2017, AstraZeneca Pars submitted regulatory applications to the Iranian Food and Drug Administration and subsequently received marketing authorizations for several products. AstraZeneca Pars has not entered into any commercial transaction since its incorporation; products registered under AstraZeneca Pars are exclusively sold by a third-party distributor.

AstraZeneca, through one of its non-US Group companies that is neither a US person nor a foreign subsidiary of a US person, currently has sales of prescription pharmaceuticals in Iran solely through a single third-party distributor, which uses three known entities in the Iranian distribution chain. At this time, none of AstraZeneca’s US entities are involved in any business activities in Iran, or with the Iranian government. To the best knowledge of the management of AstraZeneca, the third-party distributor used by AstraZeneca is not owned or controlled by the Iranian government and AstraZeneca does not have any agreements, commercial arrangements, or other contracts with the Iranian government. However, AstraZeneca understands that one of the independent sub-distributors of AstraZeneca’s third-party distributor is likely to be indirectly controlled by the Iranian government. Further, AstraZeneca’s third-party distributor may initiate payments using banks associated with the government of Iran for the purchase of AstraZeneca products. Finally, Government agencies, hospitals and institutions may purchase AstraZeneca products from the third-party distributor or the sub-distributors.

Throughout 2017 to 2025, AstraZeneca, through a distributor, sponsored health care provider education programs in Iran, including for employees of hospitals owned or controlled by the Iranian Ministry of Health.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company’s gross revenues and net profits attributable to the above-mentioned Iranian activities were $33 million and $19 million respectively. For the same period, AstraZeneca’s gross revenues and net profits were $58.7 billion and $10.2 billion, respectively. Accordingly, the gross revenues and net profits attributable to the above-mentioned Iranian activities amounted to approximately 0.06% of AstraZeneca’s gross revenues and approximately 0.19% of its net profits.

At the time of publication, the management of AstraZeneca does not anticipate any change in its activities in Iran that would result in a material impact on AstraZeneca.

Summarized financial information for guarantee of securities of subsidiaries

AstraZeneca Finance LLC (“AstraZeneca Finance”) is the issuer of 1.2% Notes due 2026, 4.8% Notes due 2027, 4.875% Notes due 2028, 1.75% Notes due 2028, 4.85% Notes due 2029, 4.9% Notes due 2030, 4.9% Notes due 2031, 2.25% Notes due 2031, 4.875% Notes due 2033 and 5% Notes due 2034 (the “AstraZeneca Finance USD Notes”). Each series of AstraZeneca Finance USD Notes has been fully and unconditionally guaranteed by AstraZeneca PLC. AstraZeneca Finance is 100% owned by AstraZeneca PLC and each of the guarantees issued by AstraZeneca PLC is full and unconditional and joint and several.

The AstraZeneca Finance USD Notes are senior unsecured obligations of AstraZeneca Finance and rank equally with all of AstraZeneca Finance’s existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The guarantee by AstraZeneca PLC of the AstraZeneca Finance USD Notes is the senior unsecured obligation of AstraZeneca PLC and ranks equally with all of AstraZeneca PLC’s existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Each guarantee by AstraZeneca PLC is effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness of AstraZeneca PLC to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The AstraZeneca Finance USD Notes are structurally subordinated to indebtedness and other liabilities of the subsidiaries of AstraZeneca PLC, none of which guarantee the AstraZeneca Finance USD Notes.

AstraZeneca PLC manages substantially all of its operations through divisions, branches and/or investments in subsidiaries and affiliates. Accordingly, the ability of AstraZeneca PLC to service its debt and guarantee obligations is also dependent upon the earnings of its subsidiaries, affiliates, branches and divisions, whether by dividends, distributions, loans or otherwise.

Pursuant to Rule 13-01 and Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act, we present below the summary financial information for AstraZeneca PLC, as Guarantor, excluding its consolidated subsidiaries, and AstraZeneca Finance, as the issuer, excluding its consolidated subsidiaries. The following summary financial information of AstraZeneca PLC and AstraZeneca Finance is presented on a combined basis and transactions between the combining entities have been eliminated. Financial information for non-guarantor entities has been excluded. Intercompany balances and transactions between the obligor group and the non-obligor subsidiaries are presented on separate lines.

E.Taxation

Taxation for US persons

The following statements are intended only as a general guide to certain material UK and US federal income tax consequences of ownership of Ordinary Shares held as capital assets by the US holders described below. This summary is based on current UK and US federal income tax law, the current US/UK double taxation convention and what is understood to be the current practice of HMRC and the US Internal Revenue Service as at the date of this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026, each of which may change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary does not describe all of the US federal income tax consequences that may be relevant in light of the US holders’ particular circumstances (including the US Medicare contribution tax or the US alternative minimum tax) and tax consequences applicable to US holders subject to special rules, such as banks, dealers, traders who elect to mark to market, tax-exempt entities, insurance companies, US holders who hold Ordinary Shares as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion or integrated transaction or holders who have a “functional currency” other than the US dollar. In addition, the discussion does not address tax consequences to an entity treated as a partnership for US federal income tax purposes that holds the Ordinary Shares, or a partner in such partnership.US holders and any holders who may be subject to tax in the United States or the United Kingdom are urged to consult their tax advisers regarding the UK and US federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of Ordinary Shares in their particular circumstances.

Termination of the ADR programme

The termination of the ADR programme and listing of the Ordinary Shares generally should not be a taxable event for US holders. However, US holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the UK and US federal income tax consequences of their particular circumstances.

44

UK and US income taxation of dividends

The Company is not required to withhold UK tax when paying a dividend. Liability to tax on receipt of dividends will depend upon the individual circumstances of a US holder. A US holder that is resident outside the United Kingdom for UK tax purposes will not generally be subject to UK tax on dividend income received, but should consult their own tax adviser.

For US federal income tax purposes, distributions paid by the Company to a US holder are generally included in gross income as foreign source ordinary dividend income when actually or constructively received. For any dividend paid in a foreign currency, the amount of the dividend will be the US dollar value of the foreign currency payment received determined at the spot rate of the relevant foreign currency on the date the dividend is received, regardless of whether the dividend is converted into US dollars. Dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally available to US corporations.

If the dividend is converted into US dollars on the date of receipt, US holders of Ordinary Shares generally should not be required to recognise foreign currency gains or losses in respect of the dividend income. US holders may have foreign currency gain or loss (which would be US source and taxable at the rates applicable to ordinary income) if the amount of such dividend is converted into US dollars after the date of its receipt.

Subject to applicable limitations, dividends received by certain non-corporate US holders of Ordinary Shares may be taxable at favourable US federal income tax rates. US holders should consult their own tax advisers to determine whether they are subject to any special rules which may limit their ability to be taxed at these favourable rates.

Taxation on capital gains

US holders that are individuals or companies who are not resident in the United Kingdom for tax purposes will generally not be liable for UK tax on capital gains made on the disposal of their Ordinary Shares, unless such Ordinary Shares are used, held or acquired in connection with a trade, profession or vocation carried on in the United Kingdom through a branch or agency or other permanent establishment. US holders should consult their own tax advisers about the treatment of capital gains in the United Kingdom.

For US federal income tax purposes, a US holder will generally recognise US source capital gain or loss on the sale or exchange of Ordinary Shares in an amount equal to the difference between the US dollar amount realised and such holder’s US dollar tax basis in the Ordinary Shares. Non-corporate US holders (including individuals) who have held the Ordinary Shares for more than one year will be eligible for reduced rates. US holders should consult their own tax advisers about the treatment of capital gains, which may be taxed at lower rates than ordinary income for non-corporate US holders, and capital losses, the deductibility of which may be subject to limitations.

Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) rules

We believe that we were not a PFIC for US federal income tax purposes for the year ended 31 December 2025. However, since PFIC status depends on the composition of our income and assets, and the market value of our assets, from time to time, there can be no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. If we were treated as a PFIC, certain adverse tax consequences could apply to US holders.

Information reporting and backup withholding

Payments of dividends and sales proceeds that are made within the United States or through certain US-related financial intermediaries may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding, unless the US holder is an exempt recipient or, in the case of backup withholding, the US holder provides its taxpayer identification number and certifies that it is not subject to backup withholding. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a US holder will be allowed as a credit against the holder’s US federal income tax liability and may entitle the holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely supplied to the US Internal Revenue Service.

Certain US holders who are individuals (or certain specified entities) may be required to report information relating to securities issued by non-US persons (or foreign accounts through which the securities are held), subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for securities held in accounts maintained by US financial institutions). US holders should consult their tax advisers regarding their reporting obligations.

45

UK inheritance tax

Ordinary Shares held by an individual who is domiciled in the United States for the purposes of the United States – United Kingdom Double Taxation Convention relating to taxes on estates of deceased persons and on gifts (the Estate Tax Convention), and who is not for such purposes a national of the United Kingdom, will generally not be subject to UK inheritance tax on the individual’s death or on a lifetime transfer of the Ordinary Shares, provided that any applicable US federal gift or estate tax liability is paid, except in certain cases where the Ordinary Shares: (i) are comprised in a settlement (unless, at the time of the settlement, the settlor was domiciled in the United States and not a national of the United Kingdom); (ii) are part of the business property of a UK permanent establishment of an enterprise; or (iii) pertain to a UK fixed base of an individual used for the performance of independent personal services. In the exceptional case where the Ordinary Shares are subject to both UK inheritance tax and US federal gift or estate tax, the Estate Tax Convention generally provides for double taxation to be relieved by means of credit relief.

UK stamp duty reserve tax and stamp duty

Transfers of Ordinary Shares within the DTC clearance system will generally not be subject to UK stamp duty provided that no written instrument of transfer is used to effect the transfer (such an instrument of transfer should not be necessary in respect of Ordinary Shares held within the DTC clearance system).

While the Ordinary Shares held within the DTC clearance system, agreements to transfer such Ordinary Shares should not be subject to SDRT (provided DTC continues to satisfy various conditions specified in UK legislation).

Transfers of, or agreements to transfer, Ordinary Shares from the DTC clearance system into another clearance system (or into a depositary receipt system) should not be subject to UK stamp duty or SDRT, provided that the other clearance system or depositary receipt system satisfies various conditions specified in UK legislation.

Ordinary Shares which are held outside of the DTC clearing system and which are transferred into the DTC clearance system will generally be subject to UK stamp duty or SDRT at the rate of 1.5% of the amount of the consideration given or, if there is no consideration in money or money’s worth given, the market value of the Ordinary Shares. Any 1.5% charges arising in these circumstances will generally need to be paid by the transferor as a precondition to the transfer into the DTC clearance system.

A transfer of Ordinary Shares which are held outside the DTC clearance system and are transferred by way of written instrument will generally be subject to UK stamp duty at the rate of 0.5% (rounded up to the next multiple of £5) of the amount or value of the consideration given. Other than in the circumstances described above for Ordinary Shares held in or transferred to the DTC clearance system, a charge to SDRT will also arise on an unconditional agreement to transfer shares at the rate of 0.5% of the amount or value of the consideration payable. However, if within six years of the date of the agreement becoming unconditional an instrument of transfer is executed pursuant to that agreement, and stamp duty is paid on that instrument, any SDRT already paid will be refunded (generally, but not necessarily, with interest) provided that a claim for repayment is made, and any outstanding liability to SDRT will be cancelled.

The information set forth under the heading “Corporate Governance—Corporate Governance Report—Compliance with the UK Corporate Governance Code—Further information on risk management and controls” on page 73, “Corporate Governance—Audit Committee Report—Internal controls” on page 86, and “Financial Statements—Directors’ Annual Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting” on page 115, in each case of AstraZeneca’s “Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2025” included as exhibit 15.1 to this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026 is incorporated by reference.

US corporate governance requirements

The Company delisted its American Depositary Shares from Nasdaq effective January 30, 2026 and directly listed its Ordinary Shares on the New York Stock Exchange on February 2, 2026. As the Company’s Ordinary Shares are traded on the NYSE, accordingly, it is subject to the reporting and other requirements of the SEC applicable to foreign private issuers. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires companies to include in their annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC, a report by management stating its responsibility for establishing internal control over financial reporting and to assess annually the effectiveness of such internal control. The Company has complied with those provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act applicable to foreign private issuers.

B.      Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As required by US regulations, management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company, and is required to identify the framework used to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and to assess the effectiveness of such internal control.

ITEM 16F. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

Following a rigorous process, the Company concluded an audit tender in 2024 for the Company’s external audit provider. On July 25, 2024, the Company announced that the Audit Committee of the Company has recommended, and the Board of Directors has endorsed, the appointment of KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the Company’s external auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. A resolution will be put to the shareholders at the 2026 Annual General Meeting to approve this appointment. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”), who have been the Company’s independent auditor since the year ended December 31, 2017, did continue as the Company’s auditors for the year ending December 31, 2025 and will be dismissed at the conclusion of the Company’s 2026 Annual General Meeting.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, PwC did not issue any reports on the financial statements of the Company or on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting that contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were the auditors’ reports of PwC qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. Furthermore, during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, no “disagreements,” as that term is defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(iv) of Form 20-F and the related instructions to Item 16F of Form 20-F, occurred over any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to PwC’s satisfaction would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with reports it issued during such period, or any “reportable event,” as that term is described in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of Form 20-F.

The Company has provided PwC with a copy of the foregoing disclosure and has requested that they furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether they agree with the statements contained herein and, if not, stating the respects in which they do not agree. A copy of PwC’s letter is included as exhibit 15.4 to this Form 20-F dated February 24, 2026.

ITEM 16G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Company is a public limited company incorporated in the United Kingdom admitted to the equity shares (commercial companies) category of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange. As a result, it follows the U.K. Corporate Governance Code 2018 (the “U.K. Code”) in respect of its corporate governance practices. The current edition of the U.K. Code, which came into effect for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, was effective to the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Companies Act 2006 (the “U.K. Act”) and the Listing Rules of the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA Rules”) imposes certain requirements that also influence the Company’s corporate governance practices. The Company’s Ordinary Shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and, under the NYSE Corporate Governance Standards (the “NYSE Standards”) applicable to listed companies, as a foreign private issuer, the Company is permitted to follow the corporate governance practice of its home country in lieu of certain provisions of the NYSE Standards.

The Company is required to disclose any significant ways in which its corporate governance practices differ from those followed by US companies under the NYSE Standards. In addition, the Company must comply fully with the provisions of the NYSE Standards relating to the composition, responsibilities and operation of audit committees, applicable to foreign private issuers. These provisions incorporate the rules concerning audit committees implemented by the SEC under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company has reviewed the corporate governance practices required to be followed by US companies under the NYSE Standards and its corporate governance practices are generally consistent with those standards.

50

A summary of the significant ways in which the Company’s corporate governance practices differ from those followed by US domestic companies under the NYSE Standards is set forth below.

NYSE Standards

  ​ ​ ​

AstraZeneca Corporate Governance Practice

1. Under the NYSE Standards, the audit committee is to be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of a listed company’s external auditor, unless there is a conflicting requirement under the home country laws of the company.

 

Under the U.K. Act, a company’s external auditors are appointed by its shareholders, or in limited circumstances, by the directors of the company or the Secretary of State. Under the U.K. Code, a company’s audit committee is responsible for, amongst other things: conducting the tender process and making recommendations to the board, about the appointment, reappointment and removal of the external auditor, and approving the remuneration and terms of engagement of the external auditor; reviewing and monitoring the external auditor’s independence and objectivity; reviewing the effectiveness of the external audit process, taking into consideration relevant U.K. professional and regulatory requirements; and developing and implementing policy on the engagement of the external auditor to supply non-audit services. In the event that the board does not accept the audit committee’s recommendation on the external auditor appointment, reappointment or removal, a statement from the audit committee explaining its recommendation and the reasons why the board has taken a different position should be included in the company’s annual report. This should also be included in any papers recommending appointment or reappointment.

 

 

 

2. Under the NYSE Standards, the nominating/corporate governance committee and compensation committee are to be composed entirely of independent directors.

 

Under the U.K. Code, a majority of the members of the Company’s nomination committee should be independent non-executive directors. Under the U.K. Code, the chair of the Company may be a member or chair of the nomination committee, provided he or she was considered independent on appointment as chair. However, the chair of the board may not chair the nomination committee when it is dealing with the appointment of his or her successor.

Under the U.K. Code, all of the members of the Company’s Remuneration Committee should be independent non-executive directors, with a minimum membership of three. Under the U.K. Code, the chair of the Company may be a member, but not chair, of the Remuneration Committee, provided he or she was considered independent on appointment as chair. In addition, the chair of a company’s remuneration committee should have served for at least 12 months on a remuneration committee before his or her appointment.

3. Under the NYSE Standards, the compensation committee is to make recommendations to the listed company’s Board of Directors with respect to non-CEO executive officer compensation and certain other compensation plans which are subject to Board approval.

 

Under the U.K. Code, the Company’s Remuneration Committee determines the Company’s global remuneration frameworks and principles, approves individual salary decisions and related matters for executive members of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Senior Executive Team and the Company Secretary, and reviews annual bonus payments for all executives reporting directly to the Senior Executive Team members. While the Remuneration Committee does not make initial recommendations to the Board of Directors in this respect, it does report to the Board of Directors on these matters.

Under the U.K. Act, the Company is required to offer shareholders: (i) a binding vote on the Company’s forward looking remuneration policy for its directors at least every three years; and (ii) a separate annual advisory vote on the implementation of the Company’s existing remuneration policy in terms of the payments and share awards made to its directors during the year, which is disclosed in an annual remuneration report. The U.K. Code does not require that the terms of reference of the Company’s Remuneration Committee specify that the chief executive officer may not be present during voting or deliberations on his or her compensation.

4. Under the NYSE Standards, shareholders are entitled to vote on all equity compensation plans and material revisions thereto, with certain limited exemptions.

 

Under the FCA Rules, shareholder approval is required to be obtained by the Company for the adoption of equity compensation plans which are either long-term incentive schemes in which directors of the Company can participate or schemes which may involve the issue of new shares. Under the FCA Rules, these plans may not be changed to the benefit of the plan participants unless shareholder approval is obtained (with certain minor exceptions, for example, to benefit the administration of the plan or to take account of tax benefits).

5. Under the NYSE Standards, each listed company Chief Executive Officer must certify to the NYSE each year that he or she is not aware of any violation by the listed company of any NYSE corporate governance listing standards.

 

As the Company is a foreign private issuer, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer is not required to make this certification. He is, however, required to promptly notify the NYSE in writing after any executive officer of the Company becomes aware of any non- compliance with any NYSE corporate governance rules applicable to the Company.

The FCA Rules require the Company to include a statement in its annual report and accounts as to whether it has complied throughout the applicable accounting period with all relevant provisions set out in the U.K. Code or, if it has not complied, set out those provisions it has not complied with and its reasons for non-compliance.

ITEM 16K. CYBERSECURITY

Risk and Management Strategy

AstraZeneca employs complementary processes for assessing, identifying, and managing risk from cybersecurity threats. AstraZeneca information systems are protected by a multi-layered set of technology, processes, and cybersecurity experts consistent with the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF). Maturity against the NIST CSF controls is assessed via recurring independent third-party assessments, internal audits, and both enterprise-wide and targeted manufacturing site penetration testing conducted by a leading external partner. The outputs of these activities are represented in detailed cybersecurity operations and performance metrics. The recurring reports address risk and are reviewed by multiple leadership levels with summaries embedded in enterprise risk reporting provided to the Senior Executive Team (SET) and Audit Committee. Third-party partners are subject to appropriate NIST CSF controls as specified in AstraZeneca third-party risk management and procurement processes, and enforced via service agreement and contract terms and conditions, and ad hoc monitoring. AstraZeneca has not experienced any previous cybersecurity incidents that have materially impacted its business or business strategy. Ongoing risks from cybersecurity threats demand management vigilance, investment, and oversight, as further described below.

Governance

Cybersecurity remains a core AstraZeneca enterprise risk focus area. Enterprise risk reporting includes cybersecurity specific content. The Board of Directors’ Audit Committee provides oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats. The SET receives quarterly cybersecurity updates via the enterprise risk function, and via cybersecurity topics included in meeting agendas. The quarterly updates are forwarded to the Audit Committee. Audit Committee expertise includes leaders that have management expertise across a broad range of industries and market sectors which includes oversight of cybersecurity risk and incidents. The AstraZeneca cybersecurity risk management program is implemented by the Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”), who reports to the Chief Information Officer (“CIO”). The CISO is the primary executive responsible for assessing and managing cybersecurity risks, including delivering recurring updates to CIO and SET via standardized quarterly reporting. The CISO has over three decades of cumulative cybersecurity expertise gained from increasingly complex roles in executive U.S. Government positions, Financial Services, and Retail industries. The CIO reviews risk management recommendations from the CISO and tracks AstraZeneca’s global internal audit management plans that include corrective actions to address exposed risk to information systems from cybersecurity threats. AstraZeneca maintains a global cybersecurity defence operations centre that relies on advanced technology, skilled cybersecurity operations staff and documented incident response plans that are closely coupled with AstraZeneca’s enterprise crisis management processes. Incident response plans and escalation via decision matrix criteria defined in crisis management procedures ensure management is informed of cybersecurity incident prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation. The CIO and CISO report risk information to the Audit Committee via recurring Board of Directors presentations and written reports.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of AstraZeneca PLC

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of AstraZeneca PLC and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of 31 December 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended 31 December 2025, including the Group accounting policies and the related notes to the Group financial statements (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Group’s internal control over financial reporting as of 31 December 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of 31 December 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended 31 December 2025 in conformity with (i) IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, (ii) UK-adopted International Accounting Standards and (iii) International Accounting Standards as adopted by the European Union. Also in our opinion, the Group maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of 31 December 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Group’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 15.B. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Group’s consolidated financial statements and on the Group’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Group in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

54

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Recognition and measurement of accruals for Managed Care, Medicaid and Medicare Part D rebates on US Product Sales (excluding Rare Diseases)

As described in the Group Accounting Policies, and Notes 2 and 20 to the consolidated financial statements, when invoicing Product Sales in the US, management estimates the rebates the Group expects to pay and considers there to be a significant estimate associated with the rebates for Managed Care, Medicaid and Medicare Part D. The major market with rebates and other revenue accruals is the US. The US Rebates, chargebacks, returns and other revenue accruals liability at 31 December 2025 amounted to $5,941 million (including $336 million attributed to Rare Diseases), principally consisting of rebates related to Managed Care, Medicaid and Medicare Part D. Rebates are amounts payable or credited to a customer, usually based on the quantity or value of Product Sales to the customer for specific products in a certain period. At the time Product Sales are invoiced, rebates and deductions that the Group expects to pay are estimated. These rebates typically arise from sales contracts with government payers, third-party managed care organisations and various state programmes. The methodology and assumptions used to estimate rebates and returns are monitored and adjusted regularly in the light of contractual and legal obligations, historical trends, past experience and projected market conditions. The rebate estimates include assumptions in respect of aggregate future sales levels, segment mix and customers’ contractual performance, and in addition for Managed Care, US Medicaid and Medicare Part D, the channel inventory levels, and assumptions related to lag time.

55

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to recognition and measurement of accruals for Managed Care, Medicaid and Medicare Part D rebates on US Product Sales (excluding Rare Diseases) is a critical audit matter are the (i) significant judgement made by management when developing the estimate for the accruals for the Managed Care, Medicaid, and Medicare Part D programmes, which are monitored and adjusted in light of contractual and legal obligations, historical trends, past experience and projected market conditions (ii) high degree of auditor judgement, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to aggregate future sales levels, segment mix and customers’ contractual performance, the channel inventory levels, and lag time and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialised skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s recognition and measurement of the Managed Care, Medicaid, and Medicare Part D rebate accruals, including controls over the significant assumptions. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing completeness and accuracy of data provided by management (ii) evaluating the reasonableness of management’s estimate by (a) developing an independent estimate of these accruals and (b) comparing the independent estimate to management‘s estimate (iii) evaluating the effect of any adjustments to prior years’ accruals in the current year’s results and (iv) testing actual payments made and rebate claims processed by the Group, and evaluating those claims for consistency with the contractual and mandated terms of the Group’s arrangements. Developing the independent estimate of the accruals involved independently evaluating the terms of the specific rebate programmes and/or contracts with customers; historical revenue data; market demand and market conditions in the US; third party information on inventory held by direct and indirect customers; and the historical trend of actual rebate claims paid. Professionals with specialised skill and knowledge were used to assist in assessing the compliance of the Group’s Medicaid rebate policies against the regulatory requirements.

Impairment assessment of the product, marketing and distribution rights and other intangibles

As described in the Group Accounting Policies and Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group has product, marketing and distribution rights totalling $35,934 million and other intangibles totalling $818 million (hereafter the intangible assets) at 31 December 2025. For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group recorded net impairment charges of $218 million relating to product, marketing and distribution rights and net impairment charges of $12 million relating to other intangibles. Management performs an impairment trigger assessment for all intangible assets. Intangible assets under development and not available for use are tested annually for impairment and other intangible assets are tested when there is an indication of impairment loss or reversal. Where testing is required, the recoverable amount of the individual asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of impairment loss or reversal. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which it belongs. Group-level budgets and forecasts include forecast capital investment and operational impacts related to sustainability projects, as well as inflationary impacts, and form the basis for the value in use models used for impairment testing. An asset’s recoverable amount is determined as the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use, in both cases using discounted cash flow calculations where the asset’s expected post-tax cash flows are risk-adjusted over their estimated remaining period of expected economic benefit. The key assumptions and significant estimates include the outcome of research and development activities, probability of technical and regulatory success, market volume, share and pricing (to derive peak year sales), the amount and timing of projected future cash flows, and sales erosion curves following patent expiry.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impairment assessment of the product, marketing and distribution rights and other intangibles is a critical audit matter are the (i) significant judgement made by management when determining the recoverable amount of the Group’s individual assets or CGUs (ii) high degree of auditor judgement, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating significant assumptions in management’s cash flow projections related to the probability of technical and regulatory success, market volume, share and pricing (to derive peak year sales), and sales erosion curves following patent expiry and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialised skill and knowledge.

56

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s intangible asset impairment assessment, controls over the identification of triggering events and the valuation of the recoverable amounts of the Group’s individual assets or CGUs, including controls over the significant assumptions. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for identifying indicators of impairment and for developing the estimated recoverable amounts (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the methodology used by management to estimate the recoverable amounts (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the models and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to the probability of technical and regulatory success, with the assistance of professionals with specialised skill and knowledge, and market volume, share and pricing (to derive peak year sales), and sales erosion curves following patent expiry. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to the probability of technical and regulatory success, market volume, share and pricing (to derive peak year sales), and sales erosion curves following patent expiry involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering 1) consistency with external market and industry data and benchmarks 2) performing comparisons of current and past long term forecasts and 3) performing comparisons of management’s probability of technical and regulatory success benchmarks to actual trial and regulatory success rates for the past three years.

Recognition and measurement of legal provisions and disclosure of contingent liabilities

As described in the Group Accounting Policies, Note 21 and Note 30 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group is involved in various legal proceedings considered typical to its business, including actual or threatened litigation and actual or potential government investigations relating to employment matters, product liability, commercial disputes, pricing, sales and marketing practices, infringement of IP rights and the validity of certain patents and competition laws. Most of the claims involve highly complex issues. Often these issues are subject to substantial uncertainties and, therefore, the probability of a loss, if any, being sustained and/or an estimate of the amount of any loss is difficult to ascertain. As at 31 December 2025 the Group held legal provisions of $376 million and disclosed the more significant legal matters. Provisions are recognised when there is a legal or constructive present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reasonable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provision is made where an adverse outcome is probable and associated costs, including related legal costs, can be estimated reliably. Management’s assessment as to whether or not to recognise provisions or assets, and of the amounts concerned, usually involves a series of complex judgements about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. Determining the timing of recognition of when an adverse outcome is probable is considered a key judgement.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures related to recognition and measurement of legal provisions and disclosure of contingent liabilities is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgement made by management when assessing whether an adverse outcome is probable and can be estimated reliably (ii) a high degree of auditor judgement, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s assessment of the legal provisions and disclosures of contingent liabilities and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialised skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s evaluation of the liability of legal claims, including controls over determining the probability of a loss and whether the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, and related financial statement disclosures. These procedures also included, among others, (i) obtaining and evaluating letters of audit inquiry with internal and external legal counsel for significant litigation (ii) testing the completeness of management’s assessment of both the identification of legal claims and possible outcomes of each significant legal matter (iii) evaluating the reasonableness of management’s assessment regarding whether an adverse outcome is probable and estimated reliably (iv) inspecting certain external legal documents (v) evaluating the sufficiency of the Group’s legal provisions and contingent liabilities disclosures and (vi) where appropriate, considering the scope, preliminary findings and conclusions of investigations with the assistance of professionals with specialised skill and knowledge.

Valuation of defined benefit obligations in the United Kingdom (“UK”)

As described in the Group Accounting Policies and Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements, the Group and most of its subsidiaries offer post retirement pension plans which cover the majority of its employees. Several of these plans are defined benefit, where benefits are based on employees’ length of service and linked to their salary. As at 31 December 2025 the Group had defined benefit obligations of $4,767 million in the UK. Qualified independent actuaries, engaged by management, have updated the actuarial valuations under IAS 19 for the major defined benefit plans operated by the Group to 31 December 2025. In respect of defined benefit plans, obligations are determined using the projected unit credit method and are discounted to present value by reference to market yields on high-quality corporate bonds. Given the extent of the assumptions used to determine the value of scheme liabilities, these are considered to be significant estimates. The assumptions include mortality, inflation and discount rates for the UK.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of defined benefit obligations in the UK is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgement made by management, including the use of management’s experts, when determining the present value of defined benefit obligations (ii) a high degree of auditor judgement, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to the mortality, inflation and discount rates, and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialised skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the valuation of the defined benefit obligations, including controls over the significant assumptions. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of the data provided by management and (ii) the involvement of professionals with specialised skill and knowledge to assist in evaluating the reasonableness of management’s estimate by (a) developing an independent estimate of the defined benefit obligations for the UK and (b) comparing the independent estimate to management’s estimate. Developing the independent estimate involved independently determining mortality, inflation and discount rate assumptions by evaluating the specifics of the plan and, where applicable, considering national information, and consistency with external market and industry data.
