About the company

Bristol Myers Squibb discovers, develops and sells prescription medicines for serious illnesses, including cancer, blood disorders, immune diseases and heart disease, for patients treated by doctors and hospitals around the world. Its best-known drug is Opdivo, an immunotherapy that helps the body's own immune system find and attack many kinds of cancer. Researchers develop drug candidates in its labs or bring them in through acquisitions and partnerships, then test them in clinical trials to win regulatory approval. The company makes and markets the approved medicines and earns its revenue from sales of patent-protected drugs. Its roots go back to a business founded in 1887, and it is based in Lawrence Township, New Jersey.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Sales are beating forecasts: BMS raised 2026 revenue guidance to $49 billion to $50 billion in July 2026.
  • Newer drugs carry the business: they made $7.6 billion of $13.0 billion in sales in the June 2026 quarter.
  • Manufacturing careers are expanding: a $2.3 billion Houston campus announced in August 2026 will add nearly 500 skilled roles.

What critics are saying

  • Job security is shaky: BMS added 265 New Jersey layoffs in September 2026, bringing its 2026 state cuts to 718.
  • A patent cliff looms: Eliquis and Opdivo, its two biggest drugs, lose US exclusivity around 2028.
  • Older drugs are shrinking fast: Revlimid sales fell 49% to $425 million in the June 2026 quarter as generics spread.

What makes Bristol Myers Squibb unique

  • BMS owns a psychiatry first: Cobenfy treats schizophrenia without blocking dopamine, unlike antipsychotics used for decades.
  • Its top seller is shared: BMS splits Eliquis blood thinner profits roughly equally with Pfizer in most markets.
  • BMS reengineers patients' own immune cells: it sells two CAR T therapies, Breyanzi and Abecma, for blood cancers.

Key Takeaway: The Institute for Healthcare Improvement and Bristol Myers Squibb launched a three-year initiative to enhance access to oncology clinical trials.

From its catalyst data and publicly available data · not financial advice Best trade, last catalyst 120-day peak, hindsight Typical move average across 15 past catalysts Lead asset Phase 1 · Multiple Myeloma Three-year initiative will bring clinical research closer to patients and address barriers to trial participation BOSTON-(BUSINESS WIRE)-The Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), in partnership with Bristol Myers Squibb (BMS), is launching a new Cancer Collective Action Collaborative. This three-year effort will mobilize healthcare and community partners to drive meaningful, sustainable change in access to and participation in oncology clinical trials, with a particular emphasis on lung and breast cancer. "Removing barriers to clinical trials is both an imperative and an opportunity within our reach," said Shannon Stephens, MPH, IHI's Interim Vice President of Health Equity. "By valuing the lived expertise of patients alongside the clinical expertise of providers and taking a coordinated, collaborative approach, we can advance more equitable care and create sustainable change across the cancer care ecosystem." Building on the foundation established by the Rise to Health Coalition, the Collaborative will bring together 24 teams across the healthcare ecosystem to address clinical trial participation barriers among populations disproportionately affected by cancer. Through shared learning and coordinated action, teams will improve how health systems connect eligible patients to clinical trial opportunities; build reliable and inclusive pathways; strengthen patient and community engagement and trust; equip care teams and community partners; and leverage data to support continuous learning and improvement. "At BMS, we believe that every person should have the opportunity to benefit from our medicines and innovation, no matter who they are, where they live, or what they have," said Andrew Whitehead, Vice President, Head of Population Health at BMS. "The Cancer Collective Action Collaborative is an extension of our Population Health strategy, which shapes how we work to ensure access to care, including clinical trials that reflect the populations affected by disease." The challenge: advancing access and participation in oncology clinical trials. Cancer outcomes remain unequal across the United States. Black women are 38 percent more likely to die from breast cancer than White women, despite slightly lower incidence rates. Lung cancer mortality remains 14 percent higher among Black men than White men. Rural residents have significantly higher cancer incidence and mortality, such as 40 percent higher lung cancer risk, due to limited access to oncologists, fewer screening services, and longer travel distances for treatment. Patients also face unequal opportunities to participate in clinical trials. Approximately 80 percent of patients with cancer receive care from community oncologists, yet participation in clinical research remains uneven across care settings. Research has found that just 4.1 percent of patients at community cancer programs enroll in cancer treatment trials, compared with 21.6 percent at National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer centers. Racial, ethnic, and geographic differences in clinical trial participation further underscore the importance of addressing barriers associated with trial availability, recruitment processes, access to information, distance, and coordination across healthcare systems. "We cannot expect different outcomes if we continue to rely on the same approaches to clinical trial recruitment," said Dr. Megan Wanzo, Director of Global Patient Inclusion and Recruitment at BMS, who is leading the company's work on the Cancer Collective Action Collaborative. "Improving participation in oncology research requires us to examine how we make trials accessible, how we engage with communities, and how we equip health systems to connect patients to research opportunities. The opportunity before us is to move beyond identifying barriers to collectively changing the systems that sustain them." Through an in-person and virtual learning community, the Collaborative will bring together the following stakeholders to align efforts toward the Quintuple Aim for cancer care: - Health and healthcare organizations - Oncology practices - Community cancer centers - Community-based organizations - Patient advocacy organizations - People with lived experience Apply to join the Collaborative. IHI and BMS have completed the first phase of the initiative, co-designing the Collaborative using evidence-based improvement strategies to support effective collective action. With this foundation in place, IHI and BMS invite organizations to apply to join the Collaborative by November 30, 2026. Review the application details and apply here: https://go.ihi.org/4jyf3jT.

Eli Lilly beats Bristol Myers Squibb on growth: $65.2B revenue, 45% rise vs. $48.2B

A comparison of Bristol Myers Squibb and Eli Lilly concludes that Lilly is the better healthcare stock to buy in 2026, even at a premium. Lilly's 2025 revenue rose about 45% to $65.2 billion, with net income near $21 billion. Bristol Myers' revenue slipped 0.2% to $48.2 billion, though it returned to a net income of $7.1 billion after an $8.9 billion loss in 2024. Lilly trades at 33.8 times forward earnings against 8.2 times for Bristol Myers. The article says Bristol Myers is cheap for good reason, citing pricing pressure, patent expiries, and an unpredictable recovery. Lilly's weight-loss drugs Zepbound and Mounjaro are expected to lift 2026 revenue above 30%, to $88.6 billion. Bristol Myers is forecast to grow 3% to $49.9 billion.
