Total revenues decreased by 2% year-over-year, from $46.159 billion to $45.006 billion, indicating a slight contraction in the company's top-line performance. This decline was primarily driven by lower Revlimid sales due to generic erosion and increased free drug distribution.
While revenues decreased, gross profit margins improved, with cost of products sold increasing by 5% while total revenues decreased by 2%. This suggests that the company is managing its cost structure effectively despite revenue headwinds.
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share decreased from $7.70 to $7.51, indicating a slight decline in profitability when excluding certain non-recurring items. This suggests that the company's core profitability is facing some pressure.
